Do not use GHC for both 10,000 and 100,000,000. It is highly deceptive.

All Mahama knows doing Best is to comment on NPP policies and interventions saying I'll review I'll cancel I'll reopen I'll reverse. If NPP had not come out with these,it means Ghana was going to be ruled laterally.

##ARREST NDC MEMBERS, INCLUDING CAPTAIN SMART, FOR KOMENDA SUGAR FACTORY CRIME!!!
AUTHOR :PATRIOTIC GHANAIAN -----
— —- What at all do you want in life?
Your father E. A. Mahama, a minister in Nkrumah's CPP, sent all his children to the North to have FREE EDUCATION fraudulently because he was living in Accra and had the means to pay. You had free education from Class ONE thru University level. You were on Government scholarship to Russia. You became Assembly man, an MP, a deputy Minister, a Minister, a Vice President, a President: all in that ascending order. You presided over the MOST CORRUPT GOVERNMENT in the history of Ghana. In fact, you were yourself deeply involved in all ACTS OF CORRUPTION from Aeroplanes buying to infinity. You stole so much so that a judge described your government as CREATE, LOOT and SHARE.
John Mahama, What at all do you want again in this world of Ghana?

Ghanaweb, what is the motive for publishing this news item item which is close to thirty years?

Don’t think you guys are smarter than the rest of your readers! You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to equalize the current crime committed by Cecelia Dapaah

You see in life we move on with positives. And so it is a shame for you to in a certain way try to justify a present crime because one of such had ever happened in the past. No nation develops which such mindset

Not even the then President Atta Mills could stop NDC Ministers and then Vice P John Mahama from stealing ghc54,000,000 for Wayome for no work done. He then redistributed the money amongst the top brass of NDC. If Ghana is underdeveloped and broke now, NDC is the cause. It's made up of evil unpatriotic beings. At least NPP loves Ghana and always introduces new policies such NHIS, Free SHS, etc.

For far too long NDC has succeeded in spewing lies to Ghanaians portraying themselves as angels. They've been super corrupt whenever in power. Their current battle for power is to position themselves to loot Ghana pasaa. Instead of using our taxes for development they out compete themselves as to who can steal the most. That stone head Quakye boy bought $5m house at East Legon. Okudjeto Ablakwa was distributing judgement debts like awaakye to his cronies for kickbacks. Thts why NDC was labelled as 'Create, loot and share' party. Ghanaians beware of these diabolical thieves . Don't dare to bring them back to power.

"soli journalists". The money belonged to Obed Asamoah, then attorney General. It was stolen from his bedroom.The amount was 3 something and not 1 something. Obed trickled it down because of the publicity it had gained and also as the "chief law enforcer"(attorney general). The only money stolen from NDC (40,000 usd) was at their kokomlemle office.
These soli journalists don't get facts before going to the publishing house.
Are they justifying Cecilia Dapaah's criminality or an attempt to mitigate the enormity of it.
They are all in similar fashion. The police officers began purchasing mansions with monies, the source of which had become very questionable. This is why Obed came out. He would have still hidden himself "in his closet" as usual!
