    So Kojo thinks he can change things by becoming a MP. Is that really true? Would he say he was not helping to change things at Joy FM. By the way, what is his understanding of "changing things"?
    I honestly think Your previou ...

  • Honesty 10 years ago

    Oppong Nkrumah does not even know the rules of his own party and yet wants to go to Parliament and make laws.
    To be honest, you don't need to be in Parliament to change things in Ghana as he claims.

    Kojo, you see, you didn't do your homework well; see how your own party chairman is already disowning you in public, calling you "stranger in the party ..... so I don't know what is pushing him". Maybe the chairman expected K ...
