  Well if Mahama knowing he would come back and ask Ghanaians for a second term can subject the same people to this wahala then I really can't imagine what would happen in his last term (God forbid ).

  SELFISH POLITICIANS, GHANA FIRST.
  It doesn't make sense by any stretch of imagination. The man who was appalled by the illegal payment of the money to WOYOME, MARTIN AMIDU WAS SACKED BY THE NDC. Those who caused the illegal payment to be made are today holding positions in the NDC. MARTIN AMIDU HAS SINGLE HANDEDLY FOUGHT FOR THE MONEY TO BE PAYED BACK TO THE STATE, I MEAN TO GHANA, BUT HE IS STILL SIDELINED. DOES THIS MAKE SENSE TO ANY SENSIBLE GHANAIAN.
  It is a case of patriotic citizens out, bad citizen welcome.
  We cannot allow this to go on beyond 2016.
  FELLOW CITIZENS WHO CAN REASON JUST LIKE ME, LET'S VOTE THE DEAD GOAT AND HIS USELESS NDC OUT IN 2016.

  Don't blame him but the choice makers. U can't expect better ruling from visionless people. But it sadeens me that some people's ignorance, better still arrogance has brought about untold hardship for all of , well meaning and descerning ghanaians.

  Mahama needs a demo that will lead to riots in Ghana just like the 1948 riots.

  Sometimes I wonder what in the president's style makes him a communication expert as some of his admirers are wont to say. He's been goofy every step of the way. My guess is Mahama is either very arrogant, a narcissist, a wanna-be comedian without the witticism or all of the above.
  The public perception of the President is one who shows insensitivity to the worsening conditions of everyday life in Ghana as a result of the poor economic policies and the misplaced priorities of the Mahama NDC administration.
  A caring president will commiserate with the people and would assure the people of remedial steps to address and assuage the insecurities, fears and pain of his people, even, if he sees a political dimension to the peoples lamentations and organized protests.
  He hears but he does not listen, thinking the people are ill-motivated. For instance, he could have avoided the"Yentie Obia" music and dance because its meaning is unambiguous and sends a clear message.
  The most recent on the President's goof list is the use of the dead goat metaphor. People are really suffering and it was neither funny nor wise to say he's a dead goat. Such loose talk epitomizes his insensitivity to the plight of Ghanaians. Such arrogance and unwise choice of words was avoidable and uncalled for.
  It appears the President has lost the grip on power and has forgotten that the people we meet on our way up are the same people we meet on the downward road. If you showed kindness to those who were on their way down as you were moving up the same people will return the favor when you are on the downward slide and they are moving up. By the law of gravity what goes up does not stay up but must come down. It takes much effort on one's part and with help from family, friends, associates and sometimes complete strangers to work one's way up but it's almost effortless to come down.

  The president was just joking when he made this goat meat speech in Bostwana.
