    These are complete and irredeemable stooges at the helm of an important institution. It is so sad. Listen to their utterances, sometimes speaking like cursed NPP foot soldiers. Bossman said the NDC was a threat to democracy.

  • Steve Kaye London 1 year ago

    @Ampah, it's not only Bossman who said that the NDC is a threat to democracy but every right thinking Ghanaian knows that the demonic NDC party is a threat to our democracy.
