A former coordinator of the Lordina Foundation in the Brong Ahafo Region, Hajia Barakisu Talata Amadu has condemned Mrs Lordina Mahama President of the Lordina Foundation and wife of President Mahama, for saying she knows nothing about the DKM Microfinance scandal ,which is causing widespread national outrage in Ghana. She says Mrs Lordina Mahama lied about her non- involvement in the DKM Financial scandal .
She said this scandal has destroyed the lives of thousands of Ghanaians around the country, including those who have committed suicide.

Hajia Barakisu, who is also the founder of the Brongkyempim Mma Fekuo in Europe and was addressing Brong citizens at a funeral in Holland yesterday,said Mrs Lordina Mahama also provided the funding for DKM Microfinance branches around the country , with the support of her husband President Mahama who facilitated funding channels and Dr Opuni ,the CEO of the Ghana Cocoa Marketing Board who together with Mrs Lordina Mahama signed guarantee certificates for the company.

Monies deposited by customers in DKM Microfinance were simply diverted into the Lordina Foundation .Some of these monies also ended up in personal accounts of the first lady and her husband. They must apologize to the people of Brong Ahafo for every pesewa they have taken!

Most of these monies are in bank accounts set up by the foundation at Ghana Commercial Bank and UT Bank .Others have been stashed overseas I hear .They are very wicked .People have drunk DDT and died because they lost everything and she sits in Accra talking big English! She should be ashamed of herself.

Madam Lordina Mahama should not treat her people like this! She has betrayed the people of Brong Ahafo and Ghanaians in the rural areas especially in northern Ghana who have lost their savings. I still can’t believe it! I am so devastated that she will be telling these lies.
