  We all know Mahama is not doing well but why should he resign? Should every president resign when some group of bishops say he should resign? Nonsense!
  
  The constitution has provisions to impeach the president. This can be invoked only in extreme situations and after careful debate and vote in parliament. The preside cannot resign only because someone complains of dumsor and there's leakage of examination papers. If the preside is terminally ill or incapacitated in some physical way, he can step aside but not because inflation is 12%.
  
  Next year will come and the bishops and AFAG can campaign for whoever they want. If the bishops say Mahama should be voted out next year, who do they want Ghanaians to vote for? Akufo-Addo anaa? What guarantee do we have that Akufo-Addo will be better than Mahama?

  The Mahama you support has no brains let alone ideas to rule. If he had one, he would have resigned long time ago. Entrenchment of opinions like what you have contributed contributed to some of the wars the world over. The man is incompetent, but fools like you are encouraging him to destroy the country. There is a limit to tolerance by Ghanaians but when it is crossed be prepared for the consequences. Fools calling themselves NDC supporters. How can you have brains and support some one who is destroying your own country just because you are in NDC. Absolute stupidity!!!!

  Next year, we have a vote. You have the chance to vote Mahama out. You, Humphrey, think Mahama is not doing well and is destroying the country. But he, Mahama, does not think so. He thinks he is doing well. Why should he resign? There is no reason for him to resign. And a president cannot resign because some Bishops say he should resign as the present writer is saying.
  
  This is a matter of principle, not whether I support Mahama or not. And, for your information, I am NOT a supporter of Mahama.
  
  Humphrey, just wait and vote Mahama out next year - if you have the vote.

  Obama has come to serve and prove that he could do it better.Our own Mahama has only come to enjoy the goodies of life at the expense of the poor Ghanaian tax payer and create loop holes for looting to amass wealth in order to cushion himself against the hardship he has created when he leaves office. He would have surely resign if he had come to serve Ghanaians and prove that he can improve our lives.

  Get your history lesson straight, Stephen Owusu, if you want to get into political propaganda wars; it's not for children afterall. In the USA, Richard Nixon was pushed out of office because of his direct involvement in crimes that met high crimes and misdemeanor threshold basis for the impeachment of a President coupled with the fact that none of his partners in crime at the AG offices were willing to engage in coverup any longer after details of the Saturday night massacre became public knowledge. Secondly, in each of the other cases you listed as supporting documents for your childish treatise crime involving the president was not in doubt. Political maturity in Ghana cannot come via illogical accusations and public agitations of the trival tribal kind but of wise men. Our Constitution did not carve out honesty or moral standing to pastors or so-called men of God to be arbiters of presidential kingmakers. Finally I submit to you, Stephen Owusu, that if street level agitation by thugs and criminal gangs in political parties do become sufficient basis for removal of Presidents from office Ghana would have no one in office. J.J. Rawlings was a murdering tyrant and people loved him, Kufour was a thief and sympathizer of tribal segregation, the late Atta-Mills was a see no evil hear no evil blind president and the Mahama Presidency marked by indecisiveness. Bring to the courts of the Ghaba proof of thievry, mismanagement or acts of treason against the current president that will hold up but bear in mind each one of those charges should not be applicable to the NPP flag-bearer Nana Akufo-Addo.

  The fact that Ghana as a nation has decided to respect the clergy and acknowledges them doesn't warrant the cleargy to speak whatever that comes into their Heads. Afterall i dont blame you for you ignorance. All the problems facing the state right now were small fires problems ignited by some of our former presidents. And now in H.E John Mahama reign these fires have become so large fires that the current measures cannot solve them but a new measure has to be developed and thats a matter of time. I stand to dare any ghanaian citizen who agrees on H.E resignation to stand out and step in a the president resigns.
  100 days after being sworn in Presidency, if we dont xperience any change in the economy of the state, that person will be flogged, and will xperience mob action. I dare.

  God save Ghana, nothing seems to work well. Petroleum prices have increase and transport fare charges are outrageous making it uncomfortable to live in.
