The flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama, has taken a swipe at the dams being built under the ‘One Village-One Dam’ policy of the Akufo-Addo administration. He added that the dams lack quality, are inferior and get washed away by the rains.
“Their dams are even of inferior quality because when it rains, the dams are breaking and the water is flowing away.” Mr. Mahama indicated that his administration constructed 120 dugouts before it left office in 2016.
But he said the rains have exposed the lies of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as all the dams they claim to have built have been washed away by the rains. He called on the people of the Savannah Region, therefore, to choose truth over lies since that is what the NPP is noted for.
“Always remember that when you deceive people, the reality catches up with you. By God’s grace, the NPP came to power and they have started building what they call dams. It turns out that the dams they were talking of are the same dugouts that we were digging under the John Mahama administration.”
At Gbiniyiri in the Sawla Tuna District, former president Mahama promised a new NDC government will connect them to the national grid. He mentioned the Gbiniyiri CHPS compound and the opening up of the road to the community as all done by the NDC.
At Busunu, Mr. Mahama assured the people his government in 2021 will build one of the community day senior high schools for them. In Bole, he called on the people to ensure the peace there is sustained. He added “let’s choose peace amongst other things because that is the only way we can develop”.
He mentioned that the NPP has stalled work on the Bole Nursing Training College among several projects.
He appealed to the people not to lose hope in going out to vote the corrupt NPP out of office in 2020.
He ended his two-day tour of the region and is expected to start his tour of the North East Region on Thursday.

This story was first runed by a portal called joynewsroom.com and the headline was Npp coping our dams-Mahama. I can confirm to you that this story you have carried is fake and have no bases. I followed Mr.Mahama to those areas in sawla and there was no were Mr.Mahama mentioned that.
Is he really a northern? Did he ever stay there? In the north, dug outs for collecting water are called "DAMS".
please lets go check mahama's head oooo, I think he's getting out of place, he seems confused, after making ***barred word*** noises about the dams in your our northern region, you turn again to say what? and you forgot to put it in your green book? God don punish you.
Lord have mercy. the Incompetent one is still talking and not not sending any message on policy issues. Would John Incompetent Ford Kanazoe Dr...man Mahama leaves us in peace? He has nothing to offer, yet he is talking
YOU STARTED YOUR AKOMFEM GUINEA FOWL PROJECT WHICH FINALLY FLEW TO BURKINA FASO BECAUSE YOUR PROJECTS WERE NOT FOR GHANAIANS.
Just as he rubbished the free SHS policy initially and made a U-turn after realizing the success of the policy, Mr. TIO (The Incompetent One) is doing same to the dams too. He is now claiming that he started it. The next time round he will tell us that he first married Rebecca before Nana Addo married her. So far, he has not indicated one single new thing he is going to do. Bribe taking president.
NDC 'paaaaaa'. So you do not have any original ideas on your own? Haaaaba, copy, copy 'nkoaaaaaaa'.!
He was never serious and would never be serious in his life,how could a former president Who comes from the North failed to do what was so important in the lives of his people by providing them with dams to farms with turned round to make unreasonable comments about what this govt is doing to help his own people and the country at large? He's so bitter and full of hate just because the NPP govt is doing what in eight(8) he couldn't do. Mr Mahama should get serious!
THIS GUY IS COMPLETELY CONFUSED.
"What this government is doing under 1V1D are dugouts, not dams. We all know how a dam looks like. You promised dams, not dugouts." A few weeks later: "Oh, what this government is doing under 1V1D, we also started doing the same. Even ours would have been stronger, these ones are easily washed away". This is coming from a person who was a President! And as if that is not frustrating enough, he is trying to become president again!!. Who can think far on this?
