In startegies you sometimes do not reveal it out for your opponents to know it. Once you reveal it they cover up and deflate your aim. Certain strategies should be kept mute and work hard underground.

NDC HAS DEEPENED POVERTY IN THESE REGIONS BUT STRANGELY, THEY STILL DON'T LISTEN. WE APPEAL STRONGLY GOR THE GOOD PEOPLE IN THESE REGIONS TO HELP US RESCUE GHANA FROM NDC HANDS AND PUT GHANA BACK ON TRACK TO PROSPERITY. LOOK AROUND, THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR, NDC CAN'T DO IT. THE JOB IS NOT FOR SCHOOL BOYS. GHANA IS NOW OFFICIALLY HIPC, THE MAKING OF NDC ONCE AGAIN. LET US THINK OF GHANA, NOT TRIBE.

Nana Binaddo Buhari isn't a problem to only the Ashanti/ Akyem tribal Npp party, but for Ghana as whole. When President Mahama busily fixing our economy and putting plans to put an end to our power crisis, Nana Binaddo roaming in Volta Region ,telling them he Nana Binaddo is too old to steal Ghana''s money. When President Mahama busily commissioning completed projects and cutting sods to start a new ones, Nana Binaddo is hiding in his Nima flag staff house selecting who he should work with and who he shouldn't, when President Mahama is busily fighting corruption, Nana Binaddo is protecting the corrupt official inside his Npp party who has stolen $5.million and asking and pleading with his Npp folks not to go and discuss the matter in the Media , what Nana Binaddo and his Npp hiding from Ghanaians? The fact of the matter is that, he Nana Binaddo is NOT a leader and for that matter cannot lead Ghana, he is a very low energy person who only wanted to be worship by his gullible followers. He should forget 2016 period.

The facts speak for themselves are we going to let politicians continue to use tribalism to keep our country divided so they can enjoy at all the tribes expense? NDC cannot do the job let someone else more capable have a go

UNOKA AKUFO ADDO LACK WISDOM AND INTELLIGENCE, TO REASON THAT GHANAIANS ARE INTELLIGENT ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT HE IS REITERATING THE ETHNOCENTRIC-INWARD-LOOKING MANTRA OF SAFO MAAFO. LEAD THE PIECE BELOW AND SEE THE CORRELATION BETWEEN AKUFO ADDO'S STATEMENT AND SAFO MAAFO ETHNOCENTRIC AND INWARD-LOOKING MANTRA THAT THE GHANA HAD HAD THE MISFORTUNE OF BEING RULED BY LEADERS FROM THE FOUR REGIONS.

I will pay "special” attention to the Upper East, Upper West, Northern and Volta Regions (Akufo Addo).

UNFORTUNATELY, INSTEAD OF CONDEMNING SAFO MANTRA'S ETNOCENTRIC-INWARD-LOOKING MANTRA UNOKA-AKUFO ADDO OPENLY SUPPORTED SAFO MAAFO WHOLEHEATEDLY, AND NOW TURNS ROUND TO MOCK THEM AGAIN WITH "SPECIAL CARE". HYPOCRISY AT ITS APOGEE.

NDC had about 600,000 in Ashanti Region..Nana, why not focus on cutting the NDC vote in Ashanti region and also focus more on Akan areas like B/A, Western and Central region. Kuffour won these five regions including Accra. Nana why are you wasting your time when these Akan regions are there to be taken.

The north is a little different. I think Asiedu Nketiah engineered some rigging there else the NPP could have won. The most dangerous adversary of the NPP is the ntomtom chap. He is devoid of morality and doesn't care if Ghana burns so watch him closely.

Nana need to focus earnestly on the swing regions western,central,B/A and upper east and west. Also, the greedy Akans who will take few money for their selfishness to vote for NDC without consideration of the nations future. mahama/NDC had proved their failure and shameless with their free education, something they vigorously criticize Nana to be impossible meaning mahama/NDC have no clue of implementation but just a political sham for votes.
