Ghana’s President Mahama Faces Impeachment For Collecting Car ‘Bribe’ From Contractor
August 31, 2016 – Ghanaian President John Mahama Faces Impeachment For Collecting Car Gift From Contractor
Ghana’s parliament has initiated moves to impeach President John Mahama with three months to the nation’s general elections.
Though the legislators are on recess, the Speaker, Joe Adjaho, has recalled them for resumption Thursday, September 1, to begin debate on the issue.
Mahama is alleged to have received an expensive car (Ford) as ‘gift’ from a contractor and national of Burkina Faso but opposition parties and a cross section of Ghanaians, have, however, insisted the present was a bribe.
According to the country’s constitution, a sitting President or political office holder is barred from collecting a gift, either in cash or kind.
Its seems Ghana is better than Nigeria. If it were in Nigeria. A sitting president can even buy private jets, loot money and collect as many gifts as possible, whether in cash or gifts. I love Ghana constitution. Nice move
shey this thing na true sha abi Ghana dey find way to create good figure for themselves…. if it is true then i go with you @maryf.. they are much better with such constitution i pray Nigeria learn from this.

WHEN YOU LOOK at Ghana, you would see a country that truly wants to rise far from her old, infamous past. Just consider the kind of laws they make! If a sitting political office holder is barred from receiving any form of gift, you can be sure they would discharge their duties without favour. Nigeria has many things to learn from that small neighbour of ours, but pride and deep-rooted corruption stands in our way.
Wheda they poshuu am or they are not poshuu am, wetin I know be say na persin weyris answer John is still enter. Na only persin weyris answer John can posibul to rule Ghana. John Atta Mills. John Kufor. John Mahama. Even sef, if John the baptis is come, he go rule Ghana.
Could this be true? If yes, then Ghana is improving day by day.
Thank God is not in Nigeria, co- corruption politicians Party will embrace him instead of impeachment, I believe Nigeria is going to be like this one day.
