The numerous reasons that caused the defeat may be true but are you not happy they happened? What hypocrisy is that?
Basically, people could see thru their lies. Every single infrastructure undertaken was a way for them to INFLATE costs several times over and that provided them d avenue to steal and steal big time.
But why does all of u ...

But Ghanaian could not be fooled any-longer, even he and Ibrahim hired Akua Donkor to praise singer to Ghanaians.

1: MAHAMA REMOVED HANNAH TETTEH'S SLIP 2: HE ALSO REMOVED CHARLOTTE OSEI'S DROSS 3: DZIFA GOMASHIE HAD HER SLIP REMOVED. THERE WERE MANY OTHER WOMEN IN HIS CABINET WHOSE SLIPS WERE REMOVED.
So it's true that Akufo Addo also Removed Current Information Minister's DROSS? Bcos that's what Her own Constituents Has said
Are you mad? Focus on the arrogance of Mahama. Insulting Akans spelt his doom. You can't insult owners of the land and expect not to be put back in the box
Nana is busy fondling with Otiko Djaba breasts, Oyiko Botwe breasts, Adjoa sarfo Breasts, Ursula Owusu Ass.
This is also another major problem that led Mahama to lose miserably. Any corruption lssues that happens we hear president's name involved. This is first thing in history in Ghana.
Furthermore, he gives gifts more than any ...

Useless stuff.from substandard tutors wrongly called lecturers. These idiots don't qualify to be messengers in Oxford.

The economy deteriorated under Mahama.
The cedi depreciated from GHS1.60 = $1 to GHS4.20 = $1 under Mahama's leadership because of the astronomical yields on their domestic bond issues.

My friend, there is infrastructure and COST-INFLATED infrastructure. NDC opted for the latter, thinking every Ghanaian is stupid enough to fall for their nonsense.
Your so called cost inflated can be used to oust your NPP too.it is just about telling Ghanaians that they inflated costs. If costs were inflated then what is Nana doing? Those you said inflated costs are right there so arres ...

Idiot, Infrastructural development alone does not make an economy vibrant and fulfilling for the populace. Most of this structures were even built by imported labor from china etc so please shut the hell up

The one important factor nobody has mentioned for NDC defeat is vigilance put up by the opposition. NDC was not able to rig the election this time.
Whilst they were insulting Nana, NPP was strategizing to prevent all the rigging in past elections. The election petition was the beginning of their defeat- it exposed NDC to the root- Despite general mosquito's weird definit ...

That was the deciding factor. The NDC could not rig the election because of the vigilance of NPP.
The Botchwey Committee will never finish collating the reasons for NDC poor performance in the 2016 polls. New factors like the lectures research findings keep coming up. I hope they will all be included in the committee's f ...

I am tired of getting tired of hearing why Mahama was defeated each morning. He was defeated period. Can't we move on?
The reasons why the NDC lost this elections were many and they have a herculean task correcting all those if they dream of winning power again.
THE GOVERNMENT WAS SERIOUSELY CORRUPT.
MORE REVELATIONS WILL BE COMING.
Ghanaians hate to say the truth. NDC lost just because there was too much corruption going on and many of their minister and serial callers lacked of respect. Everyone hate corruption but in Ghana we don't talk about it.
JJ talk about npp usd2.25b corrupt Bond. Tell your citizen vigilante Martin Amidu that he has an opportunity to prove that he really loves Ghana and he is not vindictive and corrupt himself
NDC lost because Ghanaians vote for the parties and not the candidates. Somehow, Ghanaians have come to believe that every party has a maximum of 8 years to serve and then after, a change in government in required.

The university lecturers failed to talked about the deceit promises of the NPP which most Ghanaians believed in and voted for the NPP.
All the reasons given are meaningless. The only reason Mahama and the NDC were voted out was that the economic conditions were really bad.

These lecturers are speaking from their own minds. The truth of the matter was hardships, rising cost of utilities, fuel and school fees.
was this a research by university professors? even a chop bar keeper could do better
Jealousy because of he's Northerner the same happened to Dr,Limam and the same shall surely happens to Bawumiah too.
