"Great to see Otumfour using Ibrahim Mahama’s Private jet. At least we see that the plane serves many prominent people aside from the President, who is the brother. The loudmouth people won’t come and rant on this one. Blessed is Ibrahim Mahama and his family. You serve this country with love and grace. Others stole and took it to America, and are currently in ICE detention centre."
