Mahama begins Northern Region campaign amid prostests

MahamaPresident John Mahama will Monday take his re-election bid to the Northern Region amid a street protest by a coalition of opposition parties in the region.

The President is expected to campaign in Tamale, the regional capital, and other parts of the region.
The Northern Region becomes the second stop for the President’s campaign after a tour of the Western Region.

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) campaign will be visiting markets and institutions to tout the achievements of the Mahama government and make a case for why they should be retained.

A coalition of opposition parties in the region have vowed to protest in the streets ahead of the President’s visit.
The opposition parties led by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) have threatened to disregard orders of the Police to postpone the demonstration.
The coalition, including the Convention People’s Party (CPP), Progressive People’s Party (PPP), National Democratic Party (NDP) and the All People’s Congress (APC) say it is too late to call off the protest scheduled for Monday. The protest has been nicknamed ‘Times are hard’.
Joy News' Northern Region Correspondent, Martina Bugri, says the demonstrators are massing up to march through the streets of Tamale.
The parties are protesting soaring electricity bills and the prices of other items they claim are skyrocketing in the country.

They have appealed to market women, students and all professionals in the region to join them in the cause.

Bulldog has spoken out on his acrimonious break-up with former top act Shatta Wale, who he managed for years until they abruptly ended their relationship. The whole messy break-up was interspersed with threats of violence and exposing nude photos and the like. Speaking on Hitz Fm Wednesday, Bulldog revealed that contrary to most reports, the break-up had nothing to do with money, but instead with the threats Shatta Wale made against his wife. Bulldog said when he heard Shatta Wale was threatening to release the nude photos of his wife, he knew at that point that their working relationship was over.“At the time, I had gotten information that he had my wife’s naked picture and that’s not a joke… The only reason I broke up with Shatta was my family; nothing else. I’m not money conscious. I have worked with people for free” he said. Bulldog said he just wants to set the record straight about the split. Source: ghanacelebrities.com
