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.

Whether he is like that or not what he is saying is true and until we change we will remain where we are no matter the govt in power. Ghanaians hate the truth even if that is the solution to our problems. You can continue to live in your dirty politics and destroy Ghana.
MAHAMA PAAAA, LIKE HE WANTED GHANAIANS TO THINK ABOUT WHO?, HIM (MAHAMA) OR WHO?, WHEN GHANAIANS GAVE YOU (MAHAMA) TO LEAD THEM WHAT HAPPENED? YOU LISTERN TO VARIOUS CORRUPT ACTS AT VARIOUS PLACES IN YOUR GOVERNMENT, NOTABLY SSNIT, 72MILLION DOLLARS, CAN YOU IMAGINE AND THAT WOYOME AND THE REST. YOU THINK GHANAIANS HAVE FORGIVEN YOU, YOU JUST MAKE A MISTAKE BY CONTESTING FOR 2020 ELECTIONS. INDEED GHANAIANS ARE THINKING ABOUT THEMSELVES BECAUSE ELEMENT LIKE YOU DISAPPOINTED THEM. LOOK AT THE POVERTY AND HARDSHIP GHANAIANS ARE ENDURING. I GUESS YOU WISH YOU CAN BE GIVING ANOTHER CHANCE BUT IT IS PAST AND THAT CAN NEVER BE CHANGED, EVEN IF THE WORLD IS RE-CREATED, BECAUSE THOSE WHO WILL MAKE IT TO THE NEW WORLD SHALL MAKE REFERENCE OF ISSUES OF THE OLD WORLD. THAT'S WHY LEADERS MUST SERVE AND SERVE DILIGENTLY
God is so kind. Why else would he still allow this doofus space to be saying these things?Of course Ghanaians are selfish. You so diligently demonstrated that when you were president. You looked the other way as your friends and relations l00ted the national coffers.There is judgement waiting for you one day. Have no doubts about that.
It is true that's why he parceled our bauxite deposit to your brother and wife. Also that's why with your active connivance Opuni stole COCOBOD cash and now he has set up a bank True that's why Ernst Thompson and his bunch of corrupt management staff and board members of staff can cream off 72million and still counting of pensioners funds and still have the effrontery to justify it. Mahama yes you think of yourself and your family
It is true. That is why you gave our bauxite to your brother. Hypocrite!!
So this man will never change with his okro mouth
You and hypocrisy deEEEEEEEE
