Former President John Dramani Mahama is baffled that the NPP government would prioritise flying blood with drones in the face of the numerous challenges confronting the health sector.
That choice is not a priority, John Mahama remarked to a loud cheers of from an NDC gathering after he filed his nominations form on Monday.
“Instead of prioritizing the needs of the health sector, the NPP government chooses to acquire drones to fly blood.”
Parliament on last week approved a $12,527,000 deal the Government of Ghana entered with US-based Fly Zipline Inc to distribute medical suppliers across the country with their drone equipment over a period of four years.
The Ghana Medical Association and some stakeholders have asked the government to cancel the deal because it is a priority of the health sector.
John Mahama agreed and demanded, “Government should get its priorities right by spending the limited resources on more essential interventions other than copying innovations without relevance to therealities of Ghana’s current needs.”
The former president mentioned the ‘no bed syndrome’ which he said is an “indictment of leadership” as well as health worker shortage among other “chronic problem in our health service”, and said these should have rather attracted the attention of the government.
He accused the Akufo-Addo-led government of abandoning health sector projects initiated by the NDC administration.
“Unfortunately, many of these now stand unattended to, monument to the petty partisanship of the day while our people persist in their despair. It is beneath our dignity to allow this to continue.”

Don't mind Mahama. His priority is to get the chance to create, loot and share. A good planner and an organised government put better measures in place to solve pertinent problems. This drones and emergency supplies issue, are we going to pay money for an undone work? I see it as a farmer arranging with 'by-day' workers that their services will be needed in his farm.
@Do your best. Pls throw up bcos that is the only way you can feel better after listening to this greedy man. he is the even more greedy than his creator the dev1l.
I hold myself up not to vomit anytime I hear this john the ded goat talking about the present government. John Dramani Mahama is a disgrace to himself, his family, his party and his country with his INCOMPETENT BEHAVIOR. You can move heaven and earth you can NEVER come back to create loot and share in this our beloved country you greedy bastard. NDC YAAMUTU, NDC YAAMUTU, NDC YAAMUTU, NDC YAAMUTU, NDC YAAMUTU, NDC YAAMUTU, NDC YAAMUTU
Of course for someone like you, creatîng, lóoting and sharing is the only priority, John Mahama.
Of course that will not be a priroity to the INCOMPETENT ONE. Bus branding is what Mahama priorities in his life. Such an 1diot was once leader of this great nation. Pathetic!
You allowed nurses to rot at home: I mean 2014, 2015 and 2016 batches. How many did you employ. If there are no beds in hospitals remember you left power only less than 2 years ago, after you had spent 8 years at the helm of affairs. You greedy baztard, why did you choose to build a vice president residence for 14 million dollars with the plan that you could take the old veep residence. In fact you never paid Kuffour's ex-gratia but you were crying on rooftops few months after leaving office. You think you are the only wise person, right? You foool! How many ambulances did you leave for the whole Ghana? Tell us any major achievement in the health sector. You claim you built hospitals, which ones. Can you mention a single project that you and your apparatchics have attributed to Atta Mills? Take away Mills' projects and you will know that you are only empty. Massa, comot for there. Dumsor Wura.
Mahama has regreted saying Flying Blood With Drones Not A Priority hahahahahha
visionless leader,i am very sad,where there is no vision the people are striped of honour.prov,29;18
What I dot not understand in all this is why is this th13f not in jail but instead he is in our faces saying all sorts of nonsensical things. For Mahama nothing is of priority. All that matters to this man is money being available for pinching. God will never allow this kleptomaniac to be our leader again.
Balawo Mahama.
