The former President John Dramani Mahama has stated that nationalism and patriotism have become deficient in the country.
Mr Mahama said Ghanaians only think about themselves, their families and political parties before thinking about Ghana. “Nationalism and patriotism have become very deficient today. Absolutely nobody thinks about the country first.
“We all think about ourselves first, our families second, our parties third maybe our communities fourth and Ghana comes a fifth or even tenth,’ he stated. Speaking at the enrollment for the first batch of students at the opposition National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) ideological school on Friday, he bemoaned the lack of knowledge members of the party have about their own party.
“It has taken the party 25 years to come around the idea of a party school. Within that time frame, NDC activists have very little understanding of their ideological roots which has not augured well for party unity and grassroots mobilisation,’ he said.
The NDC which was founded by ex- military leader Jerry Rawlings has constructed a political school to educate its members on ideals of the party.
“It has taken the party 25 years to come around the idea of a party school. Within that time frame, NDC activists have very little understanding of their ideological roots which he has not augured well for party unity and grassroots mobilisation.”
Some bigwigs of the party have argued that Mr Rawlings is not the sole founder of the party.

MAY GOD FORGIVE YOU..... OR ELSE YOU WILL NEVER NO PEACE FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO MOTHER GHANA
Is this not the same Mahama whose brother wasn't paying taxes when he was a president? How many government lands did his wife take and how many government of Ghana properties did he give to his friends as a gift (Akua Donkor and co)? This man wanted to transfer GH armed forces money (from peacekeeping) to his personal account after his defet. He wanted to keep official VPs residence for himself and he is now talking about Ghanaians Only Think About Themselves & Their Families. Mr Mahama, not every GH think like you
This John Mahama guy is a con man....
Shut the entire ideological school of the phux up Mahama!
He could not even galamsay manence, get lost Theif, fiafitor, avuu.
I wonder what figure of speech this is. Or maybe the words mean something else. The man is the apostle, in fact, pope of what he is saying. Otherwise he is the greatest con man.
You could not even get your brother to pay his taxes - something that all patriotic citizens do, and you stand there talking about patriotism. ***barred word***
***barred word*** full circle. who doesn't know John John Mahama is a self seeking opportunist talking trash. Can he dilate on how the SD Ideology guided him as President? Withdrawing Nurses and Teacher Trainees allowancess , moreso in an election year, is a tenet of SD? All his appointees and cohorts that caused mess at SSNIT, Bins fraud, COCOBOD rotten fertilizer( never heard of this before 'cos rotten things are normally good fertilizers), $269m national security contract not known to Yaw Donkor, Subah, Gyeeda, SADA, Asongtaba etc know a thing or two about SD?
Mahama you are deceiving yourself. Pls go and enjoy your big ***barred word*** wife and stop chasing married NDC women. Look at this man preaching patriotism? Your loss has exposed a lot about you. The ***barred word*** news spread by your own NDC members. Why give contracts to your brother and some of your cronies in late Dec 2016 and early Jan 2017? Who gave Nyinahin bauxite deposits to the brother to exploit and bribed some Ashanti chiefs to support his brother? Yes, you are patriotic. Naniaam3
Ah Ah Ah! JDM get it in your corrupt head. We are no more ***barred word*** ooo. Our eyes are wide open. Dont insult us. Look at somebody talking about patriotism. When did u think of Ghana? You benefited severally in every project you undertook in Ghana. Again, all interchanges etc in your era were constructed to win votes but not necessarily to develop Ghana. Time will tell how durable your projects are. You are annoying. Save our ears.
