  I don't know what the so-called leftists are talking about, and I don't believe NPP is behind the strikes either. As far as I know, NPP is only highlighting the failings and excesses of the NDC government, hopping that they would translate into votes for the party in the next elections. And that is, in fact, a genuine and legitimate politics since the failings are true and not false. Everybody in Ghana today knows and feels that cost of living under this NDC government is unbearable and NPP is democratically presenting itself as an alternative and seizing the opportunity to convince the electorate not to vote for NDC in the next elections.
  
  Frankly, I don't see anything wrong with an opposition highlighting the failings of an incapable government in order to wrest power from it democratically. NDC is the cause of the strikes because of massive corruption, over spending, reckless borrowing and overall economic mismanagement that have brought untold hardship on Ghanaians. Moreover, NDC could not frivolously spend $5bn of public money outside the budget in 2012 to buy the conscience of gullible voters and expect that everything would be normal in the subsequent years without any difficulties in our economy.
