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

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has asked former President John Mahama to apologize to Ghanaians for dashing his brother, Ibrahim Mahama, 75 percent of Ghana\u2019s bauxite deposit.<\/p>\n

According to the NPP, the 75 percent bauxite deposit is worth about $180 billion.<\/p>\n

General Secretary of the NPP, John Boadu, addressing the media on Sunday, September 15, 2019, in the Central Region, said Ghanaians were lucky to have elected President Akufo-Addo, because, \u201che (Mahama) would have added our gold reserves to the bunch of goodies he gifted his brother.\u201d <\/p>\n

According to him, \u201cthis is not a fact built from insinuations and speculations. These are documented.\u201d<\/p>\n

He explained that \u201cthe illegal award of the concession to Ibrahim Mahama was all documented and has made its way all the way to the Supreme Court.\u201d<\/p>\n

Explaining the details of the bauxite deal, the NPP scribe said \u201cIbrahim Mahama\u2019s company, Exton Cubic Group, carried out, according to its own report, \u201cwell-defined systematic exploration drilling over the entire Nyinahin Bauxite ore deposit and determined that good grade bauxite exists on Hills 1, 2, 3, 6A, 6B, 7 and 9,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

The report, according to him, confirmed a total of mineable bauxite resources in the concession to be 792 million metric tonnes (MT), out of \u201cthe total mineral resource on all the Hills is approximately 912 million metric tonnes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Boadu said \u201cthe plan was to build a refinery. Assuming Exton Cubic went ahead to build a refinery, John Mahama\u2019s brother would have been entitled to Ghana\u2019s resources valued at US$180 billion of refined bauxite (alumina). Not even aluminium.\u201d<\/p>\n

$180 billion is equivalent to some 400 million metric tonnes of alumina. <\/p>\n

Assuming just 20 million metric tonnes of that is processed into aluminium, that alone would fetch an additional $20 billion, he said.<\/p>\n

He added that \u201cindeed, the NDC\u2019s superior craftsmanship of state-sponsored corruption was well-described in a pithy way by the phrase \u201ccreate, loot and share.\u201d<\/p>\n
