The National Coordinator of the 2016 NDC Campaign, Kofi Adams has okayed President Mahama’s sharing of monies on his campaign trail ahead of a crucial poll slated for December.
“The President is just like any other person and a Ghanaian so he’s free to give gifts to people. There is nothing wrong with him doling out money to people, if indeed he did that, Kofi Adams said on Kasapa FM Thursday.
Some media platforms were awash with an alleged video footage recently in which the president is seen standing in his open-top V8 Toyota Landcruiser and doling out cash to people in the street during a campaign tour of the Greater Accra Region.
The video, which has since gone viral and captured on several websites, was obviously shot by an amateur photographer who was reportedly observing proceedings from the balcony of a storey building.
In that video, the presidential convoy is seen moving at a snail pace on the streets of Sabon Zongo at Abossey Okai with President Mahama spotting a white cap on top of a black coloured T-shirt and responding to cheers from admirers.
As the crowd cheered him on, he beckoned someone from the crowd to come and ordered his driver to stop.
He is then seen reaching out for money from the vehicle and giving it out to the person, who meandered his way through the crowd amidst tight security to take the money.
As the vehicle began to move, the president beckoned a few others to come and he reached out for more cash from the car for them.
But Mr. Adams has risen to the defense of his Flagbearer insisting that the said act shouldn’t be condemned since the President is passionate towards humanity.
He’s been sharing monies sometimes maybe it is because of the timing that we’re judging him wrongly, he added.
He said: “Politics is limiting the pride in our culture as one people where one can easily attend to a brother’s need. this is part of our culture and we must not throw these things away because of politics.”

kofi Adamskwasea mpanin te s3 wo
rogates and lies This can not be true. This is highly doctored by a very wicked being. Why am I saying so- 1. Is it not curious that no press/media house captured it? 2. Were there no joyfm, peacefm. Adomtv, UTv etc following the president? Where were they looking? Was it a coincidence that all the established media houses with better equipment were not able to capture it. Sick minds at occupyGhana, sick minds at Surrogates and media houses. You are fully of lies and the deception is too much. You have message
Kofi Adams, enye woa. Wo se atu ama gyer3. When you were in the classroom were you able to give money freely to people on the street anyhow? God will speak for us.
Listen to the video and hear what someone asking that ")b3ma no sika anaa" and surely he did. He roll our cash like spring roll, NDC leaflet be that oo. What a dir*ty politics from NDC. ab3n b3 bom
hahaha thought this people said JM don't carry money around so it is leafleft..... confusion dey catch them like kpokpogligli
Julius Debrah says it is leaflets now Kofi Kotokoli says what? Who is NDC deceiving?
Yes, why not if it were money from his own hard earnings would he be sharing it for a sensible person like you to support it but wait everything that has a beginning surely has an end. he should continue to steal our money and share it the way he wants but the law of karma will definitely catch up with his descendants. As Ghanaians pray, weep & gnash our teeth God will definitely hear and forgive us for this mistake of a president set us free from his reign
Kofi Adams never ceases to amaze me. No wonder A Plus described you perfectly in his hot new single Aben bo bom. If the president is a humanitarian then he should introduce and formulate policies that will benefit the whole of Ghanaians and not the usual family and friends. You will be voted out in Dec walahi
So Kofi Adams. talk to Julius Debrah. formulate one response and stick to that story. when you are all fluffing about making up your own stories, it shows how incompetent you are. the man was sharing money. simple. admit and move on.
