Former President John Dramani Mahama appears to have realized one of the cardinal mistakes he committed when he was at the helm of affairs of the country with his latest promise to stay away from family and friends.
According to him, he will build a citizenry centered government devoid of family and friends.
On reason why he will form such government, Mr. Mahama said he wants to reciprocate the support he has enjoyed from the people over the past years hence the need to work hard for the benefit of all.
Mr. Mahama made the remarks at the launch of his campaign on Thursday March 2, 2023 at the Auditorium of UHAS, in the Volta regional capital, Ho under the theme “Building the Ghana We Want Together”.
“I will return your generosity with hard work in the presidency of Ghana
“The next NDC government will not be about me or about forming cadres of family and friends to enrich themselves. The next government is about you”, former President Mahama emphasized.
He continued “I promise you hard work. we shall build the most formidable party every Ghanaian will be proud to associate with”.
Mr. Mahama is seeking for re-election to become the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in May this later.
His previous administration was bedevilled with allegation of running a family and friends government.

Hahahaaaa , then there are a lot of things you won't do again, family and friends was a tip of the iceberg. In opposition they have all the solutions to the problems confronting the country. Give them power and they act in ways as if they have never sat in the 4 walls of a classroom. Just take a look at road tolls. Once you own a vehicle and drives on Ghana's roads you can't dodge payment of road tolls, you have a government that suspends payment of this all important toll and now relying on a tax call E-levy which can be avoided legally to fund road projects. If i don't tranfer money electronically i don't pay E-levy it's that simple to avoid. The 2 main political parties have become an albatross around and neck of Ghanaians. They are the same. The difference is that " one of them eats slowly, the other eats very fast " what belongs to the people.
I will only believe what yo have said if and if only you go to Antoa and swear.
this ***barred word*** think we have short memory, we shall remind Ghanaians of your corrupt and fraudulent administration, you are the last thing discerning Ghanaians will ever consider as a president. woyale a part and government that teamed up to create judgement debt and looted and shared our resources like there is no tomorrow, never again mahama and ndc
You think we are ***barred word***, you have seventeen brothers from same father and five step mothers. All were holding key positions in your government, the smartest thing you did was not given them ministerial appointments. One was the head chairman of the forest commission. He cut over five million Teak trees and exported them to Brazil. The earning never came to the shores of Ghana. One was a contractor having most the road contracts in the north who never construct most of the roads not done but paid. Ibrahim collection of 300 million loan from Merchant bank not paying and leading to the collapsed of the bank. Adam Mahama was your personal assistant having all the protocols. Many dubious contracts and activities done by your family members to the state.
