Hahahaha, so that was the reason why Jamal was recalled? He should not worry because he will never be an MP.

.@Kalimba Mozambo. Your father is A SMELLY RAT..!!! Foolish Kromfuor grandmaster! The Northerners are now running the show, because the previous time when we put most of your people in the big & sensitive positions, they ended up looting everything. The captain of THE LOOTING BRIGADE was Nana Akuffo Addo, strategically supported by his Bible-scamming Kyebi cousin -- (Ken Ofori-Atta) who has stolen everything and run away to go and hide in America. Very unfortunate for him, those MERCILESS ICE RAIDERS have captured and placed him in some squalid 12" X 10" Detention Cell with carrying some plywood bed for his use.

Because JDM is a Northener so he prefers Northeners over any other tribe. Chairman Mosquito and the NEC must have a say.

So Mahama is quick to appoint a Commissioner to Nigeria but not a serious position as the Minister of Defense for over six months? What an incompetent and irresponsible President.

Mahama has really set the bar low for politics and leadership in general with his ridiculous appointments. Names like Victoria Hammah, John Dumelo and now Baba Sadiq come to mind.

Hmmm. Good news becouse i believe this man conducts himself well with little controversies.

However, i think these Diplomatic appointments should have been given to more experienced and more mature person from the Career diplomats. I was even worried about Baba Jamal appointment initially.

He could have been Deputy to Career Diplomat to learn and takeover from a year or 2 afterwards.

Some of our Ghanaian ambassadors are clueless when you visit our foriegn missions abroad. Nana Addo also appointed similar backgrounds

Mr. Good news but what experience, I agree with your comment. Ghana politics is whom you know, otherwise, this appointment should be given to well educated and qualified people. I am happy for Baba Sadiq, but I think he is very young and inexperience for this position, because he only holds a bachelor degree and has no experience in politics or international relations. Anyway, I have come to believe that Ghana politics is about whom you know and what you know.

Appointments in Ghana are not for those who can do the job, but it's based on "he's one of us mentality". You can be a Ghanaian alright, you can be comparable with Isaac Newton, but if you don't belong to any political parties - forget it! That is why most Ghanaians excel when they go abroad where that kind of thing don't exist or very minimal. In Ghana it's not about nation building but simply about Creat, Loot and Share.
Today, for every 7 appointments, 6 go to people from a certain extraction and it is very dangerous for Ghana. At most in 50 years all other ethnic groups would be suppressed. At least in every city or town, these people have managed to build their own Calcutta republics where no laws of the nation are respected - illegal electricity and water connections; illicit drug trade; armed robbery, parking or blocking road for any activities, etc. In fact, NO GOVERNMENT has ever attempted to decongest or demolition any UNAUTHORIZED structures in those places. Yes, this is the Ghana we are building.

Well spoken Kevin. This Micro minority NPP guys in Ghana and abroad are very wicked. They sees absolutely nothing wrong with the wicked Akyem Ofori Atta whose father and Akufo Addo father did the same wickedness to Ghana afte4 they ended up betraying our First President Dr Kwame Nkrumah. This Akyems, fear them ooo. They bath hatred and wear hatred like garment. Very wicked people. They would fake their smile when the see you and called you names and laughed at you after you left them. I know them. Very selfish and power drunk people. Few Ashanti are like that too. Crazy people

I DON'T THINK NDC HAS BEEN FAIR TO THE NIMA CANDIDATE AZINDOW WHO CONTESTED THREE TIMES IN EAST AYAWASO AND LOST. THIS GUY I BELIEVE HE DESERVE TO BE GIVEN THIS APPOINTMENT, BECAUSE HE HAS SPENT A LOT OF MONEY AND TIME CONESTED FOR NDC SEAT 3 TIMES IN EAST AYAWASO. WHEN I LISTEN TO HIS INTERVIEWS, HE HOLDS A HIGHER DEGREE, EXPERIENCE AND VERY ELIQUENT. ALSO, BABA JAMAL LEFT HIS AMBASSADOR POSITION TO CONTEST IN EAST AYAWASO AND USE VOTE BUYING TO WIN THE ELECTION AND THIS CANDIDATE AZINDOW END UP GETTING A LOW VOTE FROM THE EAST AYAWASO DELEGATES. WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE GHANA POLITICS IS WHOM YOU KNOW AND NOT WHAT YOU KNOW.

The President has done well by quickly appointing a replacement for Baba Jamal. However, does the President think getting an Ambassador for a country is more important than finding a Minister for Defence?
