  Mr. Hrouna, could you remember that Nkrumah used to incite workers to strike against the Whiteman but outlawed strikes in his regime when living conditions were genuinely difficult and said strikes were unpatriotic?
  
  Could you also remember that Rawlings used to incite TUC workers to strike against Liman's government in order to over throw it fraudulently? And could you remember that he used to take 'Kenkey' to Legon to demonstrate how the size had shrunk under Liman and we ended up in "Rawlings Chain" but nobody could talk? Could you further remember that Acheampong and Rawlings used the mild IMF conditions under Busia and Liman respectively as justifications for overthrowing their governments deceitfully? Could you still remember that PNDC reintroduced the IMF and World Bank into the economy with more stringent conditions after the coup without apologizing to Liman?
  
  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 to translate them into votes for the party in the next elections, and that is a genuine and legitimate politics since the failings are true and not false. Everybody in Ghana knows that cost of living under this 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 responsible for the strikes because of the massive corruption, over spending, reckless borrowing and overall economic mismanagement that has characterized the regime and 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 everything to be normal in the subsequent years without any difficulties in our fragile economy. This is why Ghanaians are wallowing in hunger and being overtaxed.
