Immediate Past Youth Organizer of the opposition New Patriotic Party [NPP] Emmanuel Attefuah Danso has described the Mahama-led governance as �Nebuchadnezzar style of leadership� after he [President John Mahama] assured Guinea Bissau of economic and financial assistance. According to him, whereas the nation is battling with its economy woes leaving an unbearable hardship on the citizenry, the president seems not to care and is instead embarking on a promising-spree. �We are shocked to the marrow whether the president is not aware of the suffering Ghanaians, especially the youth and students are going through since he became president.� ��Under this Nebuchadnezzar style of leadership by Mahama, the economy is likened to a sick patient on the psychiatric bed on the verge of being comatose,� he said. President John Mahama and chair of ECOWAS is reported to have made the promise of financial support when he met with Guinea Bissau�s president elect, Juan Mario Vaz at Peduase Lodge. According to President Mahama consultations for the support from member states have already started. Guinea Bissau, which has been plagued with series of coup d'etats returned to democracy with the election into office of its former finance minister, Juan Mario Vaz. At the Peduase Lodge, President Juan Mario Vaz told President John Mahama that his country has been thrown into an economic crisis which is even threatening to affect a smooth organisation of his inaugural ceremony. However, speaking with Peacefmonline.com, Attefuah opined that President John Dramani Mahama is exhibiting �Outside gentility home cry�. He noted that, �Many of the youth of Ghana whose platform he [President Mahama] campaigned to controversially catapult him into the office [Presidency] are still without jobs. The thanks and commendations of the youth by Mahama [President] are unemployment, high school fees and untold hardship�. Adding that �We [Ghanaians] cannot understand how President Mahama would be able to raise funds for Guinea Bissau whilst the centre is not holding in his country. We appreciate and believe in the foreign policy, diplomacy and the love for our neighbor, but that cannot be done at the expense of ones country with almost similar problems.�
