  Was he not at Parliament when the house was approving the EC to hold elections on November 7th, why did he not raise this issue about the constitution. Today he is talking about it. This is how the NPP is they are hypocrites

  The however clause by the minority leader exposes the confusion and mischief he intends to forment by creating the impression that the whole constitution has to be changed. He is very well aware that the call for that portion of the constitution would go through parliament and surely it would. He's been there all this so why say things like this at this time to create the impression that time would permit the process to go through. I would not be surprised if he and his people have already not started scheming delay tactics to be adopted in parliament to buy time. HEY majority shine your eyes.

  Under Mahama we have the Komenda Sugar Factory which has created 7,300 jobs, the BPO Centre near Kwame Nkrumah Interchange has created 10,000 jobs, plus the recruitment of nurses in health institutions. Mahama is doing his best to ensure that Ghana gets better lets all support him

  Mahama must be arrested if he said so.

  Nana has been saying the same all along. As far as JDM is concerned, NDC is ready even today for the 2016 elections. Postponing your defeat by a month is not a problem for the NDC.

  Mahama can not be arrested because he has done nothing wrong. What he said about the elections was based on the Constitutional instrument approved by parliament. Hence if anyone will get arrested then is Parliamentarians even that is wrong and not possible.

  Ghanaians should ask the EC to compile a new voters register ahead of the impending general elections. A bloated voters register cannot guarantee any credible elections, hence the need for a truly genuine and a new register. Compiling a new register won't favour any candidate or party. The EC should also ensure that no foreigner gets access to our NHIS and also access to our voters, drivers license or passport that allow crooks to meddle in our political affairs. Ghanaians are going to the polls to vote for our legislators and president. We shouldn't allow any foreigner to come register for the November elections.
  
  Asiedu-Nketia is touring our neighbouring countries trying to recruit Togolese, Ivorians and citizens of other West African countries for the purpose of coming to vote in November. It's criminal and those who're willing to indulge in this illegal process will be risking their lives. It's criminal for the NDC to attempt to import foreigners by way of issuing passports to foreigners or any national ID towards voting in Ghana. It's unacceptable!

  Our register is not bloated even if we accept that it is, the EC is taking steps to clean the register. The likes of you and the NPP should tell us what you can do for Ghana and stop banking your electoral fortunes on a new register.

  This qualifies as an act of treason to Ghana's Parliament. This statement you are making today was never made on the floor of Parliament when the house passed the Legislative instrument for elections to be held on November 7th. It clearly shows that the Minority is failing the people of Ghana and they will do whose when they get power. Their actions and words are miles apart.
  
  Besides if is true that it takes a constitutional amendment for elections to be held on November 7th. That will be done. The NPP better get ready because they will lose the elections no matter when is conducted.

I heard the president speech and he was saying his supporters should prepare themselves for a possible Nov 7 election. What's wrong with that. NPP HAS NOT COME OUT WITH ANYTHING TANGIBLE IN THEIR MANIFESTO ONLY WAITING TO CRITICISE WHAT THE NPP DOES. NDC had majority in parliament anyway so the amendment will be approved. I don't Suppirt either party because I think all of them are crooks anyway.
