Opanyin Agyekum Urges Mahama And Nana Akomea To Ceasefire

Professor Kofi Agyekum has urged former President John Dramani Mahama and Intercity State Transport Corporation (STC) Chief Executive Officer Nana Akomea to convene a truce.

Nana Akomea, speaking on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo" morning program weeks ago, accused Mr.

If re-elected president of Ghana, Mahama must demonstrate by example that he will abolish ex-gratia."Therefore, you, President Mahama, if you declare today that you do not believe in the ex-gratia that you have received, we know that you have already spent it, so we cannot request that you return it.

Togbe Afede ceased taking ex-gratia and returned his own, so he should follow the same principle, he told Nana Yaw Kesseh on the show.In response, Mr.

John Mahama explained that, contrary to what Nana Akomea alleged, he receives a monthly pension and not ex-gratia."My companion Nana Akomea.

John Mahama tweeted, "I receive a monthly pension, but Nana Akomea found this response insulting.""I only asked him to demonstrate leadership by reviewing his own entitlements in light of the burden these impose on taxpayers and his plan to eliminate the Ex-Gratia", replied Nana Akomea, adding, "even if President Mahama disagrees with me, I am sad that he chose to lace his disagreement with insults to my person, by implying that politics had caused me to lose my "fine mind".Professor Kofi Agyekum, the director of linguistics at the University of Ghana, advised Nana Akomea not to reply to Mr.

Mahama pled with them to stop fighting."I will beg Nana Akomea to absolve and disregard the incident as if nothing had occurred.

I also request that the former president heed the counsel you (Nana Akomea) have given him...We implore them to cease fire", Opanyin Agyekum said on "Kokrokoo" on May 30, 2023.
