I wonder how a man seen by many as the most corrupt politician ever in Ghana thinks of the Ghanaian people, so much that he want to return to political office to continue with his corruption. With all this albatross dangling around his neck, Mahama is out there singing a new tune that he's the man to take Ghana to the promised land. This is the story of how the deal took shape, and how a fightback within the Transport Ministry and the NPP against the MPS deal was finally quashed, and the legendary ability of Vincent Bolloré to accommodate political change asserted itself. The deal do not reflect honest business ethics between the parties.

It also gave an undue monopoly to Bolloré on handling containers and placed thousands of jobs at other port concerns at risk and driving up prices and Surreptitiously cut Ghana's equity in MPS to 15% after first agreeing to 30%. The concessions Bolloré won from Ghana was shrouded in secrecy, with no tender or bids, in 2014, and even violating procurement laws of the country and overstated the planned investment by a factor of two which won tax holidays worth $832 million from an unwitting parliament. The terms of the agreements between MPS and the state are so tilted against Ghana's interests. It is a tale of intrigue based on the Westerners' 'lack of transparency and ethical discipline', and the former President's gluttonous self-indulgence.

In actual fact, Mahama provided corporate lobbyists, foreign actors, special interests and anyone else seeking political clout a way to gain access to his administration. Former President John Mahama not long ago marked the beginning of another electioneering season aimed at the presidency of Ghana.īut even before Ghanaians indulge him, questions are being posed as to the viability of his candidature, looking back at a legacy of profound corruption and egregious conflicts of interest he left behind, the repercussions of which continues to echo six and half years after he left office.Īfter campaigning on the promise that he would stamp out corruption in public office, Mahama did the opposite, using his power as the President to boost his own profits through numerous underhand dealings and contract inflation.
