Former First Lady, Lordina Mahama, has hit back at persons criticising her husband and former President, John Dramani Mahama upon his request to keep a state bungalow as part of his retirement packages.
Describing her husband as “a man of integrity and principle”, Mrs Mahama wrote in a tweet on Wednesday that all attempts by his critics to portray him negatively would not succeed.
“This too shall pass.Their efforts shall fall flat because you are a man of integrity & principle.They shall be put to shame by #MahamaLegacy,” she tweeted.
President Mahama on Wednesday withdrew his request to keep the state bungalow in which he resided at No.3 Prestige Link, Cantoments following several criticisms by sections of the public.
In a one page letter signed by himself to President Nana Akufo-Addo, the former president also withdrew his request to use Bungalow No.6, 3rd Avenue at Ridge as his office.
Mr Mahama’s request to keep the bungalows contravened approved recommendations set by the Professor Dora Francisca Edu-Buandoh Committee on Emoluments and Conditions of Service for Article 71 office holders.
The committee which was set up by the former president recommended that the former president be paid 40 per cent of his monthly salary as rent allowance.

Disgraceful. A mother with no shame of having a corrupt husband grabbing all in his wake.For your information madam, you're next to be investigated for your fraudulent dealings. The massive wealth you've accumulated in the past four years would all be looked at. Principled and a man with integrity indeed.
madam,can't your butttoxcks accomodate mahama? It is more than a five star hotel
Madam your greediness and selfishness knows no bound. The people of Ghana have talked,if your husband had any legacy it would have been shown on the election day,it will be better for you and your family if you will sh*t up like Mrs Teresa Kuffuor for the little respect of the first lady accorded to our first family to be respected. Afuom as you are and thinking you must be at the presidency at all cost is what has landed you with this gargantuan humiliated defeat. At least have a little shame. The people you and your husband forced yourselves to rule have talked,they've shown to you after all they don't have short memories but are discerning so have rejected you so there is nothing to judge you for goodness sake but only create, loot and share is the legacy to remember about your husbands administration. Incompetency and insult,arrogance and disrespect is the mark you've left for the next generation. Ghanaians do not want you to take their property as your husband's package. Next time say what you can do to serve your nation not what your nation can do for you. That bungalow 3 in Cantonment onaapo.
who told you your husband is a man of principles and integrity? mtcheeeeew
***barred word*** woman.
Silence is golden.... John Mahama goofed by making the request to keep that house. What did the NDC do to president Kuffour? I did not expect Mrs Mahama to say anything about this accommodation controversy. She should have advised the husband to move out since that is the requirement Mahama himself signed into law.
