    It's not too late for NPP to rescind their boycott. It sounds like their elected MP's are being puppeted by some immature party office holders. Will they attend the inauguration of parliament? President Mahama will be there! ...

    GHANAIANS WILL PREFER NDC OR ANY OTHER PARTY BUT NOT NPP. GIVE US A HUGE BREAK. BY THE WAY, NOTE THAT NPP IS NOT RETURNING TO THE CASTLE AGAIN. 2001 WAS A MISTAKE. IT IS FINISHED. PERIOD.

  • SAMMY 11 years ago

    You've said it all. This Mahama inauguration is not high on USA radar. Not the Vice President or Secretary of State or any Secretary but CEO of MCC?

    Another school drop out! Your parents would burry their head if they read your comment!

  • Boat 11 years ago

    You refuse to think, poverty has great effect. Would you rather have the vice president or the guy that controls the check book that affects your live? Obama is wise and thinks about Ghana more than you can imagine.

  • Alugu 11 years ago

    Yahaya, you are a disgrace to your parents! to be a Chief Executive Officer is a BIG thing, unless you have no idea who a CEO is. CEOs meet with the president every now and then, particularly in the USA. I think you are in th ...

    It is so important that Obama delegates relatively low level people of his administration to attend. a CEO? ---- poor Ghana, a laughing stock indeed. That is what you deserve when you elect TANI to rule you bastards!!!
