Flagbearer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, says it is heartbreaking to draw a comparison between Obuasi, which is a mining community, and Johannesburg. He says proceeds from the mining of minerals have been used to develop Johannesburg in South Africa, while Obuasi is nothing to write about. The former president, who is seeking another term in office, said all around the world, mining communities are the best, but the same cannot be said in Ghana. “When you go to mining communities across the world, they are one of the best when it comes to development. Look at Obuasi; you cannot compare Obuasi to Johannesburg because Johannesburg is seeing all the development.
