John Mahama<\/strong><\/p>\n

SOME RESIDENTS of Kumasi \u2013 the Ashanti regional capital \u2013 have
\nlaunched a scathing attack on ex-President John Dramani Mahama.<\/p>\n

According to them, they are not happy with Mr. Mahama\u2019s continuous
\neffort to discredit the free senior high school (SHS) policy by government.<\/p>\n

In a vox pop by DAILY GUIDE<\/em><\/strong>, some of the residents
\npredicted that Mr. Mahama would lose the 2020 polls miserably due to his hatred
\nfor the free SHS policy.<\/p>\n

Mr. Mahama recently lambasted the New Patriotic Party (NPP)
\nadministration, accusing it of lacking \u201ccommon sense\u201d. He also descended
\nheavily on the government for introducing the double-track system, saying that
\nthe NPP government lacks proper planning.<\/p>\n

But most of the people the paper spoke to described Mr. Mahama as
\na nation-wrecker, who doesn\u2019t want the best for Ghana.<\/p>\n

\u201cMahama and the NDC will get less that 20 per cent of votes during
\nthe 2020 presidential elections because of his hate for the free SHS programme.
\nThis is a policy that has benefited every Ghanaian and we are surprised that
\nMr. Mahama hates this policy,\u201d one Kwadwo Kwarteng of Asafo said.<\/p>\n

Lydia Opoku of Atasemanso, on her part, said \u201cMr. Mahama is
\ndigging his own grave by kicking against the free SHS policy; this policy has
\ncome to stay\u201d.<\/p>\n

Kennedy Otchere of Santasi said the free SHS is the best social
\nintervention policy ever in Ghana\u2019s history and he was surprised Mr. Mahama
\nhates the policy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe now have money in our pockets because of the free SHS
\nprogramme and we are grateful to President Akufo-Addo and Napo,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Afua Fofie of Krofrom also said, \u201cI will personally campaign so that Mr. Mahama loses the 2020 polls. Mahama doesn\u2019t have Ghana\u2019s interest at heart\u201d.<\/p>\n
