Host of Kokrokoo on Peace FM, Kwami Sefa Kayi has advised Defence Minister Dominic Nitiwul not to descend into “dirty politics”.
The Defence Minister, at a press meeting on Thursday, addressed the former first family demanding them to vacate their residence as it was sited on a Military land.
He further decried what he termed as poor handling of matters relating to the Armed Forces, claiming the land belonging to the Military had been shared among government officials of the previous administration.
"…I am talking about the former President, John Mahama. I will say no more, but I am very disturbed about this. It is happening in Tamale, it is happening in Takoradi and Lands Commission is colluding to do that. People in Lands Commission were selling Armed Forces lands. Not under this watch, that cannot happen any longer, and anybody who decides to encroach on Armed Forces lands should leave. It is not in your interest. I am sorry; but that is the truth that we did not manage the Armed Forces lands very well," he said.
But Mr. Sefa Kayi has cautioned Hon. Nitiwul to be careful about the way and manner he conducts himself as Minister of Defence.
He advised him not to forget that “power is transient”.
Mr. Sefa Kayi noted that Hon. Nitiwul delivered a superb speech at the press meeting but lost his admiration when he began to pick on former President John Mahama and his family concerning the Military land.
"I try to be as honest as i can, i've my flaws like any other man. Please let's tell Dominic Nitiwul that power is transient, he should remember that. I listened to his press conference....beautiful press conference and then he introduced John Mahama into the element about some land issue and he messed up everything. He should cast his mind back, i don't want to talk much. If i meet Nitiwul, i'll tell him that he should have it at the back of his mind that he'll not be in power forever," the ace broadcaster stated.
Meanwhile, the office of the former President has described Minister’s allegations as iiresponsible and reckless, stating emphatically that Mr. Mahama and his family do not own any Military land as purported by Hon. Nitiwul.
“We presume that the minister’s irresponsible claim is in respect of the current residence of the former first family. President Mahama has not appropriated or acquired any land or property belonging to the military and which he is currently occupying”.
Aide to the Former President, Joyce Bawah Mogtari revealed that the former first family currently resides in a residential estate developed by a private real estate development company.
“It is sad that the minister with oversight responsibility over our men and women in uniform, who risk their lives to preserve the security of our nation, would descend into the gutter and dabble in propaganda of the most undesirable kind. This behaviour falls short of the requirements of a Defence Minister whose office calls for sobriety and reflection”, she added.

Sefa kayi fi0r...i dislike your morning show...you always dwelling on political issues instead of focusing on social issues...look at the filth In this country,do you talk about it....always ndc npp issues...Massa fioor Ko !!!
the NPP ***barred word*** are out to roost. NPP can never do anything wrong. The minute you point out any bad thing they will rub your face in the mud. KWAME you are very right. the current government think, the only way to look good in front of Ghanaian is character assassination, it will surely come back to bite them.
So bcos you kwame s .kayi also bought a military land ur defending mahama. You know u stay in the same neighbourhood. So u ll also be affected. These so called big plp ur all the same
So Mr Sefa Kae if it is true that Mahama took Land that is not available to be taken the minister should not talk about it? This is the cause of all our woes .When leaders steal from the people in Africa we say 'Oh please don't talk about it .Who is Mahama?Every Ghanaian knows that the man is utterly corrupt ,a ruthless th13f and extremely greedy.Some of you so called senior journalists think that whatever you say is gospel.In South America leaders are even prosecuted when in office.Remember the South Korean lady's case?For Christ' sake ***barred word*** and stay focused on your corner
Kwame Sega Kayi you be corrupt pass
JOHN MAHAMA IS THE ONE WHO NEEDED THIS ADVICE. IF HE KNW THIS, WHY DID HE TAKE MILITARY LAND
Mr Sefa so r u telling us that is it not true that former president has acquired GAF land? If the minister has said this,have u also done ur checks before u come out and defend? I like u so much some times don't involved yourself in some issue like this.
I think The minister could have reached out to Mahama over the issue instead of addressing it during press conference.
No condition is permanent and so is your's, Sefa Kayi. Please show the same reaction when another official is accused. The courts are there if the allegation is no true.
Chairman don’t let fame and your barracks boy experience get into your bald head. Wrong is wrong. You have always accused people of dishonesty and hypocrisy is that different from your current position? Stop this nsemfo . Get some objectivity into your bald head and sto the hypocrisy. Chairman banza apuuto . Chairman chairman my foot. Or you have also gone Ibrahim ‘s soli? I know you are above below belt comment. So we should be silent even if Mahama does something wrong right. Don’t be deceived or get carried away by a false prophesy that you will be president one day. If you have started taking bribe from the Mahama family as campaign savings, return it quick before punch your bald sakora head to extract the Mahama bride. Abufusem aa kwa .
