The Bono Regional Chairman of New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr. Kwame Baffoe Abronye wants Former President John Dramani Mahama to render an unqualified apology to the hard working Transport Industry Players especially the Trotro drivers, loading boys and station managers for saying that they don’t know anything’
Former President of the Republic and a flagbearer hopeful for the NDC, John Dramani Mahama recently on a campaign tour in the Eastern Region described the NPP men as station boys who know nothing.
In his own words Former President John Mahama said. “They said they have the men, and so the people of Ghana tried them by voting for them, they said they should try them and that was the mistake the people of Ghana made because we have come to realise that after all the ‘we have the men’ it was station boys, they don’t know anything,”
The statement, did not go down well with the Bono regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe Abronye, saying the former president’s statement should be view as disrespect that looks down upon the source of livelihood of Trotro Drivers and station managers.
He however called on the former president to render unqualified apologies to them and the people of Ghana.
Reacting to President Mahama’s Statement, Kwame Baffoe Abronye in a Facebook post stated that it is unyielding nature of the former president and its NDC as they are used to attacking innocent group or groups that may not support their call.
He further stressed that President Mahama should have used the platform he had to rather come up with an alternative approach to solve the challenges confronting the country as a results of global issues if indeed he has any and not impliedly hurl insult on the innocent Trotro Drivers and their station masters.
According to him, “John Mahama cannot insult our hard-working Trotro Drivers and station Boys and Go Scot-free”
Kwame Baffoe Abronye noted that “It was very uncultured, disrespectful, balderdash and very hubristic for the incompetent corrupt John Dramani Mahama to insult the hardworking Trotro drivers and Station boys that, “they don’t know anything” and as a matter of fact he described them as an empty-headed group”.

JM must apologise to Our Trotro drivers and Station Boys
John Mahama cannot Insult Our Hard-working Trotro Drivers And Station Boys and Go Scot-free
It is very uncultured, disrespectful, balderdash and very hubristic for the incompetent corrupt John Dramani Mahama to insult our hardworking Trotro drivers and Station boys that, “they don’t know anything” and as a matter of fact he described them as an empty-headed group. The incompetent corrupt Mahama, in his Eastern Regional tour referred or described the Akufo- Addo appointees as empty- headed and that they are “Trotro Drivers” and “Station boys”.
This habit of his, I will describe, as very bad on his part. This statement is a clear indication and a warning to the Ghanaian electorate that this so-called “John Mahama” is the same person we know in the past. If someone who is looking for power is insulting trotro drivers and Station boys as people who don’t “know anything”, then we have a cause to wonder, if he gets the power what would he say to the entire electorate, should incase you complain for something.
In actual fact, without these trotro drivers and Station boys, our productivity, as a nation would have been low. Without our trotro drivers, it would have been very difficult for our gallant public and private workers to embark on their day-to-day activities. Our trotro drivers are helping the government to build our nation, Ghana. I must say, that, it is pertinent for the incompetent Mahama to understand that, some of these trotro drivers are graduates and more competent than he is but for their decision to choose driving as their profession. So it is unwarranted and balderdash for the incompetent Mahama to equate or say that Akufo Addo appointees are “trotro drivers” and “Station boys” meaning they lack that common sense to be in charge.
It is an undeniable fact, that all the Akufo Addo Appointees are more competent than John mahama. John Mahama should accept the fact that he still has a hand in the current economic situation in the country and these are some of the reasons enunciated below:
(1) The selling of the Tema Port and Harbour by John Dramani Mahama in 2014 to his friend who is a French businessman called Vincent Ballore is the cause of high prices of goods and services in the country. Readers must bear in mind that when the Akuffo Addo government attempted to abrogate the contract, John Mahama’s friend demanded a whooping 21 billion dollars from the government. But “Do we have that money as a country?” So for the next 35 years this businessman will be controlling our ports.
(2) Dubious power purchasing agreements under John Mahama of which the termination of these contracts would result in the government paying close to 55 billion dollars.
(3) internal and external borrowing with high interest rates under John Mahama’s government of which some of these loans have their repayment period ranging from 10 to 20 years.
(4) Almighty Covid-19 has also had a grave effect on every economy in the world.
In the circumstance, the incompetent John Mahama should get it right that, the above reasons were not either created or caused by Akufo Addo or his appointees. In the coming weeks or days PaFAG will be holding a press conference to expose John Mahama over his Dubious involvement that led to the selling of Tema Port.
