Amidu has spoken. After Mahama s second term in 2020 that will be the end of the road for northerners.
Logically it will take 3 presidents from other parts of the country then it will be the turn of upper East. No more northern region.
Western had Nkrumah
Central had Mills
Greater Accra had Ankrah
Volta had Rawlings
Eastern had Akuffo Addo and co
Ashanti had Kuffuor and co
Northern has Mahama
Upper west had Liman
Upper East??

Dr. Michael J.K. Bokor cunningly avoided mentioning a known fact that Ewes have been voting strictly based on the dictates of their tribal warlords regardless of any national issues. Their leaders have misled them for long, and there are signs suggesting that they would vote against tribalism and NDC in the next general election because; the common people have seen the light.
Ewes have always condemned the overthrow of Ghana's first communist dictator, and yet kick against removal of Kotoka's name from the airport in the nation's capital just because he was an Ewe. On the other hand, if it were the name of Ankra or Afrifa, charlatans like Michael Bokor would have been writing tones of tribalistic articles to support removal of the name from that airport. Again, when Yeboah killed Kotota in the failed counter coup, Ewes immediately pointed an accusing finger at Afrifa, saying that he had masterminded the killing in order to take the top job from Kotoka because he was an Ewe.
As a result of these conspiracy theories cemented by tribal bigotry, the Progress Party won overwhelmingly in all the regions of Ghana in 1969 except the Volta region. They later said that Victor Owusu accused them of being inward looking, and that statement notwithstanding the context, was used to justify many of their actions including the removal of the newly elected government. Although the region benefited tremendously from the PP government in terms of development projects within that short period, they still went ahead and overthrew it unjustifiably and plunged the country into the abyss.
It will surprise you to know that planning of the coup started immediately after the government was sworn into office and that had nothing to do with what it did or did not do in office. The truth is that Ewes planned it and lured Acheampong into it by offering him the leadership position. Busia's government made Acheampong the Army Commander and he was now being asked to betray the trust, so the reward must be big enough. The coup plotters, on the other hand, realized that he was the only obstacle in their way and they willingly made him the leader in order to reach their goal. Unfortunately, this scenario was repeated in 1981 when Rawlings deceived Akatapore and others to betray Dr. Liman paving the way for his second coup.
Those who planned and executed the 1972 coup were all Ewes, and they were Major Agbo, Major Baah, Major Solomey, and the rest of the Ewe Majors that constituted the so-called National Redemption Council after the coup. Also, when Rawlings used the tribal card to occupy Ghana in the 80s and 90's, the country was virtually an Ewe Kingdom, and it will be naive and even dishonest for a so-called intellectual like Michael Bokor to believe that Rawlings ever won an election in Ghana freely, fairly and democratically. In fact, he used to steal the verdicts of Ghanaians to remain in power fraudulently.

If Mahama hadn't stolen the nomination from his own party, I don't think NDC would have nominated and endorsed someone accused of inflating the price of airplanes by millions of dollars corruptly as their presidential candidate. After the undemocratic nomination and fictitious endorsement, he then slept in bed with the EC and Atugbah to steal the verdict of Ghanaians.
Mahama is not only leading the most corrupt government in the history of Ghana, he himself is very corrupt and rotten to the core. Ghanaians will surly get rid of him in the 2016 elections even if he is still in bed with the EC. The corrupt judges have been exposed and Ghanaians too are fed up with his corrupt and under performing government. Moreover, he is soiling the good name of northerners.

The Npp should come again because this type of propaganda will never work again. Besides we northerners would never allow our integraty to be use by your party for the second time again. Although, Bawumia is one of our own but what chance did the your party gave to the late Alhaji Ali Mahama when he was assisting J.A Kuffour.So we are never ready to support any northerner who is a running mate to any of the parties but if the Npp want us to vote for them then the party should also be ready to give the leadership to Bawumia to prove that they totally care for the northerners.
