I really agreed with Mr, Pratt. Are they trying to tell us that, all of us have to get the opportunity to chop chop right? Please let them know that, country is not about chop chop, but rather about patriotism. Most important is about vision. Is unfortunate that, most of our leaders in Ghana, have no vision at all. In some cases the ministers do not even know what they are doing. Especially NPP people. What they understood is hey come and get your own share.

Because Massa don't want a United African State. They all want division so they can feed on the scrap. Eg. how much are we getting from our oil? If we spoke with one voice, would it be the same or different value?

THE EXPECTATION OF THE NPP FOR A UNION GOVERNMENT IS A VINDICATION OF THE LATE HEAD OF STATE GENERAL IK. ACHEAMPONG. WHEN THIS GENTLEMAN OF A HEAD OF STATE MOOTED THE IDEA OF A UNION GOVERNMENT IN 1977, IT IS THE SAME ELEMENTS OF THE PROGRESS PARTY(NOW NPP) THAT MOBILIZED PEOPLE AGAINST THE UNION GOVERNMENT IDEA.

THEY SUCCEEDED BECAUSE THE USUAL 'SMEAR' CAMPAIGN ABOUT GENERAL ACHEAMPONG WAS INTENSE- 'FA WU TU BE GYE GOLF). ACHEAMPONG WAS EXECUTED BUT THEY DID NOT WIN THE ELECTIONS. IN 1981 WHEN THE PNP GOVERNMENT OF DR. LIMANN WAS OVERTHROWN IT FITTED INTO THEIR PATTERN; THEY DID NOT RECKON WITH PRESIDENT RAWLINGS.

THESE DESCENDANTS OF TERRORISTS WILL NEVER STOP. MENTION THEM- JAKE OBETSIBI LAMPTEY, SULEMANA YERIMEA(KULUNGUGU BOMB) THE YAW MANUS, THE QUAYE MENSAHS,. THE ADOTIE ADDOS, ETC

JUST LEAVE THEM WHERE YOU SEE THEM. NO GOOD.

Ghanaians, because of their greed and sefish acts and movtives would never accept a union Governance but in the nut shae, this would have been a better democray for a mulity tribal population of ours.
The former Col. Kutu Acheamong got the dream, just like Dr. King of The United Staes and predicted his idea, and this was a good thing to take off. This is like all coming together with ideas, through elected representatives for disscussions and arrining at a solid foudation to a solution and implimentation of what is good for all but because the average Ghanaian thinks solely of himself, selish would not allow his brother to participate in dessision making and this is where we are now.
Why would gods created people being blacks always be following foreign ideas. We have to learn to invent, for after all we do not see snow on our land, this makes, shows the diffrence to who we are as Africans living under the equator. For the past 200 yrs. is what the whiteman has used to develop their system so why are we trying to learn from the and we can not? yes we can not for that is their way. Why did Moses ask God, now so me your way. for he knew that God had his ways nad he mses have his way.it is the same thing here, Africans have our ways, and the whites get their ways too. so we trying to be them would always put us in troubles. unless we rediscover our way the African continet, shall always remain as black as it is now.

Over our dead bodies for such diabolical,criminal and bogus suggestion by a die hard NPP memeber in the person of Palmer -Buckler.It will never happen today, nor tomorrow!It is sad that people like Palmer-Buckler and his thugs supporting this dangerous wee smoker,Akufo Addo can´t see beyond their surroundings.If not,they wouldn´t be palying on the intelligence of Ghanaians.If that is the lattest plan, having realised that they have disgracefully lost their diabolical and bogus case,then they lie very bad.We do not have anything in our constitutioin that allowed for such stupidity that this man is suggesting,just because he wants his party to be in power.By the way, where is the tension the NPP and their criminal supporters are talking about? For how long should they take Ghanaians for granted? It is like Ghana is for these Ashanti/Akyem criminals,supported by a few useless so called men of God.We shall resit by every means by anyone or group of peole, who would like to take this country for granted.Those who are bent to destroy this country either directly or indirectly are warned.This time, they will not have the means to run away from this country as they have done over the years after causing problems.Wherever they are we shall hunt them and kill them! I am sorry to use such harsh words but I need to.Akufo Addo,Bawumia and Jake, must be very careful from now on! Ghana is not fo them.Not all of us are politicians to sufer in their hands.They must be very very careful with us!

Now the manipulators thought by hi-jacking the Governance of this Country (Ghana ) through the Opaque Election Petition,that has brought direct or indirect hardship over micro entrepreneurs,now they can premeditationally Prescribe an alternative sort of Governance for the Nation, Noway,inclusive Governance means Transparency and that issues of Nation Importance can be broadly debated by all Citizens through various media infrastructures in the Country before it can be imposed upon us. The Supreme Court Judges had a frame to work, to look into the action of the Electral Commission during the Presidential election wether a code of conduct was broken or a crime was committed And nothing else and as to now Ghanaians are waiting and eager to hear from the Supreme Court,Periode

If NPP loses this case, they will remain in opposition till eternity. Unity Government, NO,Power sharing, NO, All Inclusive government, YES. With the all inclusive government we can go for experience and knowledgeable personalities to help run the government. NDC and President Mahama is a shining example because, Pro. Naana Agyemang, Minister for Education is not an NDC, the Tourism and culture Minister madam dzefa Gormashei, Nana Oyei Lithur and so on. but to bring NPP's former ministers under whose administration, Ghanaians were dissatisfied and booted them out will only come to stab us at our back.

It is now clear the NPP is hiding under the election petition to taste some aspects of power since they know very well 2016 definitely would elude them.
Being the champions of sniffing and licking national resources at any opportunity they get and at the expense of poor tax payers, they see the year 2020 like eternity and cannot continue to go hungry when their tongues are wagging to be calmed with candies from the oil industry and their teeth itching to bite deep into the candy.
That notwithstanding, they know to the marrow in their bone that many corrupt deals during Kuffour's era is definitely to be uncovered during Mahama's administration and as a result, the strong support for sharing power.
Do you remember the Cedi redenomination, Ghana Airways sale, Ghana International Airline deals and Ghana at 50 misappropriations? Have you forgotten about State property sales to party members and ministers (especially, Ghana Airways properties), the 5 million dollar loan for Asantehene guaranteed by Osafo Maafo as then Finance minister, Vodafone saga, construction of the then Tetteh Quarshie Circle, the use of ECOWAS fund to accelerate the purchase of Hotel Kuffour and many more?
They know Mahama will allow the Courts to work and for that reason, your guess is as good as mine!
