Adding that, “When we talk about corruption, former president Mahama’s bottom is not clean…what it means is that former President John Mahama, corruption has affected [infested] him like Coronavirus.”

Wontumi cited several examples including the infamous Ford saga to back his claims that former president Mahama is indeed corrupt.
