An activist of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) Dela Coffie has slammed former President John Dramani Mahama and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for going on a unity walk on the day a 'party stalwart' is being buried.
According to him, "the lack of empathy is so shocking"
Alhaji Bature, who was the Editor of the Al-Hajj newspaper and a staunch member of the NDC passed away on Friday, January 5, 2018 at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital following a short illness.
He was buried today in accordance with Islamic law at the Nima Cemetery in Accra.
However on the same day of the burial, the NDC held its 5th Unity Walk at Techiman in the Brong Ahafo region and was led by former President John Dramani Mahama.
Dela Coffie who was not enthused about the development wondered if "the NDC is worth dying for"
He took to his facebook page and wrote:
I am so shocked. Pleasantly shocked. A party stalwart and a hero has fallen. He is due to be interred later this afternoon. The man he defended with his life, toiled and "died for" is on a self promotional tour ("unity walk"), amidst fanfare, pomp and pageantry, and without an ounce of respect to the fallen activist?
Couldn't the organisers of the so-called unity walk pushed it to a later date in honour of Alhaji's demise?
Does the death of #AlhajiBature mean anything to John Mahama? And is the NDC worth dying for?
Is anyone else sick of this? The lack of empathy is so shocking.
May the Almighty God have mercy on us all.
Rest well, Alhaji....

This Dela is an NPP decoy. Should the world come to an end because of someone's death? Just go ahead and do the biding of your contractors. For your information, we now know your real motivation:to make JM and the NDC unpopular. Shame on you.
It has to be said, Mahama is the worst president ever Ghana has had the misfortune to have as a president. Never again should Mahama be allowed back. I’d rather have Bagbin or any competent person other than this two faced, backstabbing, greedy bustard, power crazed, self serving, cunningly violent, crook of a man called JDM to come anywhere near the presidency. It would be a huge TRAVESTY!!!
Dela Cofie, i hope you have achieved your aim or objective? How on earth do you as self professed NDC will launch this attack on another NDCian in public? The insults being rained on him (Mahama) I hope gives you some achievements I guess!!! These are some of the bad ways we have carried ourselves landing us in opposition....... It really beats imagination, those of you who benefit always when NDC is in power behave like this whereas we the grass root and sympathizers will have to do everything possible to clean your mess!!! "If you think the NDC is not worth dying for" mass quit!!! You can leave and join the party worth dying for...... and not mess up our efforts!!! I wonder the kind of "wiring you are carrying upstairs"........ sure a nursery one kid will even not indulge in such a lowly venture!!! Wise up!
Dela you better advise yourself since you now know N D C is not worth dying for. Anyway coming from you its rich.
BECAUSE OF MONEY GHANAIAN MOSLEMS HAVE SOLD THE TRUTH OF KORAN FOR LIES AND INSULTS.WHERE IS OUR DIGNITY AS MOSLEMS. THE GREAT GOD WILL DEAL WITH MOST OF US.BATURE WILL KNOW HIS POSITION NOW.WE HAVE TO CHANGE AND FOLLOW THE GOOD IDEAS OF PROPHET MOHAMED AND STOP SELLING OUR PRECIOUS SOULS TO POLITICIANS.
Mahama is a greedy man. So all he knows is politics is very serious. This man has been a parliamentarian, came to be a vice president for 4 years, came to be the president of Ghana for 4 years. Stole all the money with his brother and wife. Is not enough for this greedy man. He still want to become a President again. Because of this someone who has defended you with his life die. And you cold not go and say good bye to him last respect, but you went for political walk. For what mahama has done everybody in Ghana now know that he is very greedy all he knows is power nothing more nothing less..
Massa; it is no point defending Jon Mahama and sibling Ibrahim Mahama about the utmost disgust in which the man Bature died ; how on earth do yo justify the sad position of a wife running around Accra like a headless chicken attempting to get a bed for Bature and you come and tell us Jon Mahama and Ibrahim Mahama assisted him ; not perhaps because Bature was more important than those who have also died in similar circumtance ;Massa WE are not ***barred word*** the truth of the matter was Bature treated badly and his was death was preventable ; why did they not fly him to South Africa to help him because everybody knows the health facility in Accra is appaling and much to be desired ; this is a man who defended this KROOKED Mahama siblings like a BULL dog on TV to the detriment of his health ; why did not somebody in the NDC or Jon Mahama advice Bature to calm down at his age of over 65 years - NO -these Mahama thiffs wanted Bature to defend them to his death and to say that Jon Mahama sent a delegation to the funeral was a disgrace ; couldn't Jon Mahama have suspended the this Unity Walk so he can pay his last respect to the man ? ; this tells you how evil and satanic the man Jon Mahama and siblings are ; REMEMBER SOMEBODY CALL ATTA MILLS and under what circumtances he died beside BAture is not a national hero ; he defended a kriminal family at his own health cost and was thrown under the bus by the Jon Mahama and the NDC besides you can not stop anybody talking about the way the man was treated; how on earth do you go to Ridge hospital with all the NDC rennovation and be told that there is no bed Alhaji Bature a man everybody knows in Ghana ; THIS IS CRAZY STUFF !!!!!!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 07/01/2018 Bature's family sets records straight on John Mahama's absence at burial ceremony ……........................................................................ The Iddrisu family is extremely scandalized by the inexorable attempts by some political entrepreneurs to score despicable political points with the sudden death of Alhaji Bature Iddrisu by launching unwarranted scathing attacks on former President John Dramani Mahama. While we acknowledge the inherent rights of any person or group of persons to criticize the former President, we strongly object to crafty attempts to use the death of our late brother as fertile political grounds to sow seeds of political profiteering. The contributions of His Excellency John Dramani Mahama; his brother, Mr Ibrahim Mahama and the Mahama family in general, from the day the late Alhaji Bature Iddrisu was admitted at the hospital, to the time of his death and its aftermath, are too great a virtue for the Iddrisu family to gross over. We believe the Mahama family came to the rescue of our late brother at the time he needed them most and the best way to reciprocate is to appreciate their kind gesture. We don't have the authority of the Mahama family to make public their contributions to Alhaji Bature prior to his death, but if there was any creature on earth who took special interest in the upkeep of him while on admission at the hospital, it was the Mahama family. For the records, the former President was in touch with us while in Techiman, and indeed joined the Muslim community in Techiman zongo to observe jannaiza prayers prior to the burial of Alhaji Bature. A minute of silence was observed during the Unity Walk in Techiman in memory of the fallen Hero. The former President sent entourage led by Alhaji Collins Dauda and other NDC stalwarts to represent him at the burial ceremony due to his absence as a result of circumstances beyond his control. It is awfully shocking that persons who never checked up on Alhaji Bature while on his sick bed and never showed up for his burial rites or called to check up on arrangements, are the ones demonizing those who singlehandedly stood by him in times of difficulty. We are by this statement warning any person or group of persons who wants to latch on Alhaji Bature's death to settle political scores to desist from it immediately. We have lost a national hero, and the best we can do to preserve his legacy and memory is to pray for his soul to rest in peace.

Probably, you are next so it's better you keep quiet. Judging from your own post, alhaji said this about nana addo and he has gone first, so get ready to follow him since you have also started making almost similar statement.
So this guy is dead and Nana who this dude said he is too old is alive. Man is not God. May your fabrications soul rest in lies
