"I thought it’s a crime to do this with the currency. Even those supposed to enforce the laws are breaking them. The Constitution isn’t being upheld in this country. Both political parties are the same."
@hafsatmohammed195 also said:
"Chobo Government. Spending money any how yet nurses and teachers have worked for 12 months and only received 1 month's salary. I’m just passing by oo….😂😂😂😂."

"So when will politicians learn. You are a politician, you have to be careful displaying money like that in public."
@dessyblackk also commented:
"I thought Mahama cautioned ministers against opulence."

"If you talk, they will say hate. Muntaka, your political "enemies" will be mischievous towards this. You can do more than this, but for the optics as the people's servant, this public display isn't right."
