The Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Central Region, Allotey Jacobs has said the Minister of Lands and Water Resources, Peter Amewu will regret for insulting ex-

He said Amewu's conduct is reprehensible and not in conformity of being a Minsiter.

"To him, the Minister chose to "insult" the former President because of his desire to serve his leaders, asking "John Amewu, is he a technocrat or Politician? Nah, I want to know this; for him to have come out and say that President Mahama is a conman. You see, because of our desire to lap at the feet of leaders, we intend to insult others and then when we have lost elections; we come back and say we are sorry”, he said.

Amewu, who said he previously held the former president in high esteem, however said not even a sheet of paper on the issue was left behind by the erstwhile Mahama administration, describing the ex-president, also as a failure unfit to be advising a working government.

Allotey Jacobs told journalist Kwame Sefa-Kayi on Peace FM that: "He’ll live to regret”.

Allotey therefore encouraged "President Mahama that, on every Unity Walk platform, issues concerning the State – the welfare of the people – he should say it . . . We will not listen to what the NPP will be saying because Ghanaians seem to have now regretted voting President Mahama out".
