Things are done backwards in Ghana whereby the Chairman and Gen. Secretary is more important than the President and Presidential candidate. In the civilized world the Presidential candidate picks his campaign team and not the Party. For example Hilary Clinton has picked her own campaign team and not the DNC. So if Akufo Addo picks his dousing to manage his campaign fund it s no crime and no news. So done let it sound like he has committed a crime. He needs to surround himself with people he trusts and can count on and no the likes of Afoko, Agyapng and the rest. This is no secrecy.

And what's wrong if a President Akuffo Addo appoints Ken in his government? Is he not more qualified than most of Mahama's "mistaken" appointees? Nonsense keke!

Your Nana is too old to steal but he is got his boys in place to do it for him. Modern day old Fhagan the thief and his artful dodgers.This is worrying if he gets elected as president of the nation. We would see to it that it never happens.
So Paa! this is not nonsense k3k3, it is very serious issue.

AUTHOR: MAHMOUD--- Mr. Mahama is exactly one of the visionless African leaders that have always been accused of misplacing their priorities. Does the NDC government think, despite the massive corruption, they can borrow recklessly and spend their way foolishly into another mandate in 2016, when the nation is over burdened with HIPC and workers wallowing in hunger and over taxed? Governance under the NDC government is all about deceit and 'opium of the people'. They enjoy everything under the sun but ask us to wait for our basic needs in heaven. And as they ask us to tighten our belts for future betterment, they have already loosened theirs for immediate consumption. They didn't even respect our intelligence when they asked us to wait for a paradise in three years. The truth is that, everything they promise is a mirage and we will never find comfort under them because; they are con-men with con plans.

Is his choice of campaign manager going to stop dumsor? Is it going to prevent retrieval of money squandered by woyome, gyeeda, sada? Is it going to worsen the already precarious economic situation? If yes to any of these then we should be concerned. If no, then think of how you can advise the RULING govt to manage the country better and stop focusing on internal matters of the opposition, thank you!!!

So that is why he (Akuffo Addo) wants to oust Afoko and bring in his buddy Freddie Blay..so they can once again mismanage the party funds as they did in 2012.

Obama run his own campaign. The DNC runs a support campaign. The Senate party caucus also runs a campaign to support candidates.

Parliamentarians in the UK run their own campaigns. The party runs national campaigns to support the local campaigns.

Why is the NPP national office trying to usurp the candidate? Forget the bureaucracy. Support the candidate.

How often do you hear even the name of the DNC chairman or the RNC chairman in America?

Nana Addo will take Ghana on a family ride just like he is doing right now. The guy is not destine to be president and its sad people around hin dont see it. Some are born leaders others something else. You want to impose someone not born a leader and it will not work. Everything is against him and you dont see it. He has no charisma, he has no management skills even within his own party, he is too short, he is too old and sick among others. Leave the old man alone. Stop worshipping him like he is some sort of a saviour/magician. You talk of Ghanaians are suffering as if he has a magic touch. There are thieves all around him waiting to steal knowing the old man cant remember it. What does Gabby do for a living friends?

Republic is that your problem? Does the money come from the state coffers? Or from the ndc? We those at the diaspora who are contributing don't give a hoot about who takes care of those finances if only it is in safe hands so what's your beef? Do you have a dime in it? It can be giving back to you so is that news? Or you don't have nothing to write. Your hateful, envious foolsoldiers will come here to attack like the money belongs to them, what at all do you need from Nana? Do you think Alan or any of the npp leaders would leave you to go free when they were elected to be our flagbearer and they come to power come 2016? Even if I a woman was worth it as a presidential candidate would never forgive you when I'm given the mandate.Don't think anybody from the Elephant family will let you go scot free for this mismanagement and corruption. Nana shouldn't be the only person fearful in that family because nobody will relax on this gross mismanagement and day time thieving of our natural resources and taxes.No amount of your vilification, hate, division, trivialities and disrespectful statements will ever work for you.
