A respected Chief, Nana Oteatuoso Kokobeng II has condemned former President Mahama for disrespecting the Akan tribe at any given opportunity.
Nana Oteatuoso Kokobeng II in an interview on the Wontumi Morning Show, berated the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress for describing Akyem people as “Sakawa boys” to wit fraudsters.
“Mahama doesn’t respect Akans but we (Akans) are decent people and we won’t respond in the manner you have taken. You talk down on Ashantis and Akyems and I want to tell you that you are at liberty to make all those condemnable statements. Continue to insult us”, he said.
On John Mahama’s Facebook page, his handlers have posted an article from Hon Adongo that describes people from Akyem in the Eastern region as “Sakawa Boys”.
Below is an excerpt of the post :An interesting piece from Hon. Isaac Adongo on the Agyapa Deal.
Agyapa Royalties fraud is the last straw: The Akyem Sakawa Boys and Grandpas must go
Agyapa Royalties deal is a big fraud on Ghana by President Akufo-Addo and his Akyem Mafia.
You mortgaged Getfund proceeds in excess of GH¢25 billion for the next 10 years to borrow $1.5 billion and yet you could not expand educational infrastructure and build new schools to end double track;
You mortgaged bauxite burried on the ground to Sinohydro to borrow $2 billion but has nothing to show after almost 2 years;
You mortgaged ESLA proceeds for the next 10 years, in excess of GH¢30 billion in 10 years to raise energy sector bonds of about $1.3 billion and yet energy sector debts remain unpaid and you have since accumulated over $2 billion additional energy sector debt with power producers threatening to shut their power plants.
You have exhausted the Ghana Infrastructure Investment Fund in which your predecessor JM left you $270 million.
