Nitiwul must be guided by the fact he\u2019ll not be in power forever the reason why he should be measured in his actions as minister.<\/p>\n<p>Hon. Nitiwul has come under a barrage of criticism from a section of the public after he at a press conference, advised former President John Mahama to vacate any \u201cdisputed\u201d military land he is currently occupying.<\/p>\n<p>He said Mr. Mahama\u2019s continuous stay on such land will dent his image as a former leader who was once the Commander-In-Chief of the Ghana Armed Forces, adding \u201cI\u2019m advising him that if I were him I won\u2019t live there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the Defence Minister, where Mahama is occupying is supposed to serve as a boundary between civilians and the military. He, however, failed to mention the location of the land.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to advice the former president that he should look for a place and leave because it\u2019s a dent on him. It\u2019s not good for him. He was a president and he should leave there. He should have protected the Armed Forces. I\u2019m talking about former President Mahama and I won\u2019t say no more. That can\u2019t happen any longer; not under this watch,\u201d Mr Nitiwul cautioned at a media encounter on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>However, the office of the former President has described as irresponsible and reckless, Hon. Dominic Nitiwul\u2019s claim, adding that Mr Mahama has not appropriated or acquired any land or property belonging to the military and which he is currently occupying.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on Hon. Nitiwul\u2019s comments on Peace FM Friday, Kwami Sefa Kayi said the Minister\u2019s attack was needless urging him not to allow political power to get to his head.He noted that the Minister could have handled the issues in a much better way.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI try to be as honest as I can, I\u2019ve my flaws like any other man. Please let\u2019s tell Dominic Nitiwul that power is transient, he should remember that. I listened to his press conference\u2026beautiful press conference and then he introduced John Mahama into the programme about some land issue and he messed up the programme.<\/p>\n<p>He should cast his mind back, I don\u2019t want to talk much. If I meet Nitiwul, I\u2019ll tell him that he should have it at the back of his mind that he\u2019ll not be in power forever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"scribd_iframe_embed\" title=\"RE: Mahama Occupying A Military Land\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/embeds\/366640680\/content?start_page=1&amp;view_mode=scroll&amp;access_key=key-ZBfyZm7gdMUyUdeQc4O9&amp;show_recommendations=true\" data-auto-height=\"false\" data-aspect-ratio=\"0.7729220222793488\" scrolling=\"no\" id=\"doc_63936\" width=\"100%\" height=\"600\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 33 updated by: 33 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Friday, 8 December 2017 Source: kasapafmonline.com 2017-12-08 Dominic Nitiwul, Minister of Defence Celebrated Broadcast Journalist, Kwami Sefa Kayi aka Chairman General, has chided Minister of Defence, Dominic Nitiwul over the manner in which the latter publicly attacked ex-President John Mahama over an alleged disputed land he [Mahama] is said to be occupying.
