Nana Addo Is NPP's Bad Omen -NDC

The NDC has observed with disquiet a consistent campaign of lies being pursued by a presidential aspirant of the New Patriotic Party, Nana Akufo-Addo on his tour of various parts of the country. It is grossly insincere if not irrational for the NPP aspirant...

...to compare the NPP’s eight year record with the 18 months record of the ruling National Democratic Congress administration with the intent of making the NDC unpopular.

It is clear that the NPP aspirants have no message for the people after their eight years of misrule. Nana Akufo-Addo and his fellow NPP aspirants should tell Ghanaians how they intend to ensure that the chronic corruption witnessed under their guise does not recur if in the most unlikely event Ghanaians give them another chance in 2016.

It would be recalled that the NPP government wasted billions of the tax payers money on so called Presidential Initiatives which all collapsed like a pack of cards instead of using such monies to build schools for the over four thousand schools held under trees across the country, a problem which is being addressed by the NDC led government today.

The NPP assumes that Ghanaians have forgotten about the way they disingenuously and recklessly spent billions of cedis from the TOR debt recovery levy in inducing some irresponsible, greedy and self centered journalists to do image repairs work for the then NPP led government after realizing that the people had lost faith in it.

Are these the kind of things the NPP aspirants want power to continue to do? Or are they seeking the power again to loot the expected oil revenue as they did to other national assets such as Ghana Airways, state lands and the state owned bungalows which they sold to themselves and their cronies for pittance?

Or they assume Ghanaians have forgotten how they wasted the tax payers’ money chasing non-existent loans such as the CNTCI and IFC loans in salons abroad and would not heed the caution of the then opposition NDC that they were subjecting Ghana to activities of 419 scam?

Was it not during the reign of the NPP that one of their own questioned the source of the display of ugly opulence by people who could not afford common posters while they were in opposition? What about the news of how narcotic drugs were flown in and out of this country under their guise?

Instead of the populist rhetoric’, Nana Akufo-Addo and his likes must show some modicum of truthfulness by admitting that this administration is prudently managing the malaise economy they left.

Is it not about time these aspirants learn from their mentor Ex President Kufuor, who admitted that it is improper to judge this administration which is less than two years old?

Nana, especially has time and again proven that he is not sincere to facts. It will be helpful if he can point the issues that NDC manifesto said would be achieved in two years that has not been achieved? Indeed the one thing that has not been achieved is the prosecution of persons who looted state coffers during NPP’s tenure in office.

As a Party in government the NDC can boast of impressive results within these last eighteen months irrespective of challenges and dare the NPP to compare their first three years in office to the NDC’s eighteen months and it will be evident how badly they faired.

The NDC has never and would never condescend to the corrupt and mismanagement levels of the NPP; so Nana and his friends should stop struggling to put the NDC in their class of misrule. Nana and Alan are bad news for the NPP but the NPP delegates will make the mistake of voting for one of these two who will be defeated soundly at the 2012 polls.
