It is very unfortunate to have calibre of people who displays nothing than greediness gluttony and cranking attitude towards each other. Even within their party they find it difficult to unite, how would they be able to unite the whole nation? NPP is truly a joke they have nothing to offer. By their deeds you shall know them.

Ghanaians should not be blinded by these tax looters who only seek their interest by lobbying through their agents who are scattered throughout the country. Their sole interest is to make every regime ungovernable by castigating lies, ugly insults, throwing bombs, killing women, burning markets, lengthy shallow litigations in courts and false alarm blowers. What can they boast of themselves and what have achieved for Ghana?
They want Ghanaians to be sub-servants to them whilst in their own thinking and mental deliberations remain perpetually slaves to neo colonialism.

Have you so soon forgotten how Kuffour brought Gisele Yaazi to Ghana as “special economic advisor” accommodated her in La Palm hotel with seven armed body guards which he later impregnated her with twins?
Were there not economic think-tanks in Ghana at the time Miss Yaazi came in? And what role did she play in making Ghana the heaven everyone wanted?

Have you so soon forgotten how Kuffour who has no money to renovate his current residence and it was a farmer friend who sponsored the renovation of the house? Two years down the lane, after twisted the arm of Miss Yaazi by his own promises with regards to “hotel wa-wa” his son can buy a hotel bigger than his fathers. Where was his son when the father’s house was going down?

Have you also done diligence to who owns Accra mall?
Who now owns Merchant Bank?
What is the source of income of Kuffour`s brother, Addo Kuffour; all of a sudden richness that ranks the 5th in Africa.

Kuffour travelled more than any President on earth yet what did he bring home?
Kuffour introduced more initiatives (PSI) than any president which one of them survived?
Kuffour`s ministerial appointments was higher than all presidents what were their achievements?
Kuffour`s time in office saw real brutality of innocent and vulnerable people but offered no defence nor justice for them (Issah Mobilla and Yaa Naa)
Kuffour`s Turn saw over 200 people dying in a stadium which his appointee (Jake Mulato Lamptey) squandered all donations both foreign and abroad.
“Kick Back” was the term in his administration and the party chairman then confirms to that.
It is Kuffour who has made the presidency so cheap that people like Nkrabea Effah Darteh wants to be president.
Our country became the hub of Cocaine activities. The over spending of these “junkies” is what has lured every Ghanaian today to be rich at all cost.

I find it very sickening when NPP sees nothing wrong with this man who has tainted their party with so much evil and embarrassment

Author:-Mahmoud...If we may ask, is the NDC new party school another communist ideological institution? The Young Pioneers implanted by Nkrumah in our midst did more harm than good to the development of this country when they usurped power from 1972 to 2001.

Our experience with the quack neo-communists is that, they seize power unjustifiably through coups and counter coups, and Ghanaians only suffer dictatorship, tyranny, corruption and economic mismanagement under them. Being in power now for six years, the NDC has failed again to improve the economy simply because their fundamentals are wrong. In fact, they don't have what it takes to salvage the sinking economy.

Under normal circumstances, political parties are formed to produce leaders democratically. But in the case of NDC, a tyrant created the party with state power and resources to legitimize his illegitimate regime and cling to power fraudulently. NDC is therefore, an artificial and illegitimate party followed by stomach politicians and sycophants.

Author:-PRINCE KWASI ADADE (OFIE)...
Ivor Greenstreet said directly to President John Mahama and Vice President Kwesi Amissah-Arthur that: “You don’t care”.
“Nobody is feeling your better Ghana”, Greenstreet shouted when he delivered his party’s solidarity message to the NDC at the congress at the Baba Yara Stadium in the Ashanti regional Captial, Kumasi – stronghold of the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).
In the full glare of the President, Vice President, former President Jerry Rawlings, and thousands of leaders and supporters of the NDC, a defiant Greenstreet said:
“…Currently nobody, I mean nobody is feeling your better Ghana.”
“Continuous ‘dumsor dumsor,’ corruption from top to bottom, left right inside out, and all the challenges you are facing [are] suffocating the Ghanaian people.”

He added: “We would have thought that perhaps you may have used an occasion like this to discuss policies, programmes and solutions to all the difficulties we are facing as a nation, but no, you chose today to share your Christmas gifts with each other.”
“Ghanaians are not happy at all. This ‘bronya’ is dry. Too too dry,” he told the President, adding: “The most painful thing of all is that you don’t care.”

“NDC continue, we are watching you, Ghana is watching you, do what you want to do, we also know what we’ll come and do…make sure you’ll elect executives who will be able to steer your parties affairs when you are in opposition. Boys abr3.”

The wheelchair-bound Politicians has been called names and criticised by leaders and supporters of the NDC after his bluntness.
While Majority Leader Alban Bagbin has said he believed Greenstreet was possessed by some demons, which caused him to be “so emotional”, presidential staffer Sam George wrote on his Facebook wall that: “Ivor Greenstreet apparently needs elevation to see the Better Ghana.
”However, Nkrumah said Greenstreet’s message was crafted by the CPP to capture the mood and mind of the entire country.

You are one of the 2% fine men within the NDC Government. Be bold enough and say to Mahama, hey my brother you lack the ideas to govern so step down. Mahama himself is corrupt so how do you expect him to talk about it?

All of a sudden nonentities want to portray to the world how close they were to the late President.

Those who had to chat with him for one hour everyday, those Deputy Ministers who had to call him every morning before the man could even brush his teeth, and still those who would be called to the Castle by the late President to express his appreciation for job well done after they had gone to insult political opponents in the media on his behalf. Shameless id.iots raising their egos

Both NPP and NDC have corrupt officials. Neither of these two parties are clean.

The president has been saying that he tried to introduce electronic payment and acquisition systems into the public sector {to reduce human contact with cash} in his effort to fighting corruption, but lamented that the systems were often resisted.

This has become so monotonous that Ghanaians are beginning to wonder whether the president is actually serious and interested in fighting corruption as he claims, or it's just another crocodile's tears to deceive Ghanaians into believing that he is making an effort, while the government and its cronies amass billions of dollars at the expense of this struggling HIPC nation.
Why should Ghanaians hire a president that can't even introduce an electronic system successfully into the public sector to save us from criminals masquerading as civil servants? Mr. Mahama must be seen to be fighting corruption with all his might rather than go on lamenting helplessly like the rest of us who hired him to do the job.

I am the boss therefore I am entitle to anything i NEED. I worked hard for it. My subordinate are low-humans. They are stupid and entitled to less.

As a market woman, I cannot keep my price transparent. I have to inflate it every now and again, so I can cheat small.

Corruption is basically cheating and thinking I deserve whatever I am taking from whomever.

It is a way of thinking, a selfish way of thinking. It comes about as a result of lack of transparency and non-enforcement of rules and regulations by courts and police.
