SOURCE: MYNEWSGH.COM ------ The much awaited report by the Kwesi Botchway committee has disclosed that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has a weak intellectual and research base indicating that this played a key role in the party’s defeat in the 2016 elections. According to the committee, the NDC needs to take steps to crowd the party with critical thinkers in order to make the NDC a better party.

JJ HAS DELIVERED THE MUCH NEEDED DEADLY BLOW TO FINISH OFF CORRUPT NDC!!!! COURTESY; GBC.COM ----- ***---- A Former President and Founder of the National Democratic Congress, NDC, Flt. Lt. Jerry John Rawlings has stated that greed among some party members led to their loss in the 2016 general elections. He claimed corruption increased to insane levels under John Mahama and accused them of departing from the values of probity and accountability which formed the basis under which the party was formed. According to him, it was mainly because of the corruption that the NDC lost power to the governing New Patriotic Party.

The NDC can't see beyond their nose that they are at core anti-Akan party driven by jealousy and thievery instincts.

That is how the party was born and that is basically how it has been. Just look at composition of the 13-man Kwesi Botchway committee and see the over representation of non-Akans in a country where Akans make roughly 50% of the population. Of the 13 man committee there are only three Akans.

The Akans have reasserted themselves due to the thieving of their resources and money by the Northern and Volta heavy NDC......and that is what you saw in the last elections.....the NDC won majority in the non-Akan majority areas whereas the NPP won heavily at the Akan majority areas. The battle lines have been drawn. No more monkey dey work baboon dey chop political economy.

NDC has lost its appeal and hold on Akans and that is why they lost the last 2016 election. Corruption has its price, the looter government of the NDC is going down going forward. Cheers!

The original planners of the coup were all Akan. Its blatant discrimination and the belief and the preaching of Akan supremacist ideas like yours are the very factors that drives the minority into the NDC. In other words Akan supremacist like yourself prepares a fertile ground for the NDC to ride on cos its easier for them to appeal to the minority with words like yours.

Mind you I hate the NDC and have never voted for either party in Ghana.

What is there in the comment that is Akan supremacist? What do you mean by “The original planners of the coup were all Akan"? Which coup are you referring to and can you list the so-called original planners?

My friend get off your nonsense and irrationality. I pointed to facts, the electoral map of 2016 and the composition of the Botchway committee. Where are your counter facts to disprove those?

Have you sat down and reviewed all the people who lost their assets and monies as a result of Rawlings coups? Where they majority Ewes and Northerners? Don't get me started. You find the truth very uncomfortable, or maybe you were a juvenile at the time.

You have probably never ever voted for the NPP so hush. I don't dwell on emotions but facts and if they make you uncomfortable, maybe you should.

NDC want J.J back so the party can win elections, not because they want to change from their corrupt ways. J.J. has a moral principle that is too hot for NDC to handle.

1, The NDC thought they could buy votes with their stolen moneys. They bribed chiefs and others with vehicles, houses, mattresses etc but the folks took the bribes and looked the other way.
2. Also they felt they had Charlotte on their side to call the election for them but Charlotte found out that the tsunami was too overwhelming to present any lies.
3. The NPP outsmarted them by having a well planned and executed collation center. In conjunction with the many radio stations and media houses also broadcasting results in realtime it was difficult for EC to massage the numbers. You could tell from the body language of the EC office during their press conference during the night that they had been outwitted.

The government should insist on a root cause analysis of the breakdown at the EC and publish the report.

Notorious and nation wrecker, NDC party lost the election because of stealing and looting on the part of its notorious and thievery officials. NDC party officials have stolen and looted every penny in Ghana's coffers with impunity.

Thieves who do not respect anybody at all are NDC thieves. Ghanaians saw NDC stealing and looting, and punished this notorious party for their disrespectful for Ghanaians. They were stealing under broad day light and NDC did not want Ghanaians to talk about their stealing. The party spokesmen used acid tongue to respond to any Ghanaian who dared ask them about their wealth.Even NDC fathers were advising the younger NDC men not to show off their new found wealth. Only notorious NDC thieves know where these young NDC men found their new wealth.

Definitely, NDC new found wealth are stolen and looted assets from Ghanaians. Why won't Ghanaians voted against NDC thieves who were stealing their wealth meant for development of projects for today and posterity? Ghanaians did the right thing by voting against a government that was stealing everything belonging to the country.

Notorious NDC arrogance was a factor. NDC state ministers were selling Ghana's mineral resources to Chinese whores in exchange for sex. Last year alone, Chinese exported more than $6 billion of Ghana's gold outside Ghana And Ghanaian youth were wallowing in unemployment and poverty. Nobody dared to speak against the Chinese galamsey queen. Some Ghanaians lost their jobs for speaking against this Chinese galamsey queen.We have all seen Ayariga sex video with those Chinese whores. It was dirty and disgraceful to the image of our country.

In fact, NDC party is bad for our country. It is completely detached from the aspirations and prosperity of Ghanaians. Let us continue to vote against NDC. There is no remorse on their part. They are ascribing flimsy reasons for their loss. NDC party has not recognized that it was severe corruption among their party officials that led to their loss. Let all reasonable and patriotic Ghanaians keep NDC in opposition for hundred years for good people of NPP to build our country for us.

NDC is evil!! NDC is bad for Ghana.!!!!

Fact is, the NDC have historically rigged elections to win. They are used to that as the incumbent and thought 'ehedzor bodoo' - it was 'cold chop' as usual. Fortunately or unfortunately Atuguba's asertion that elections are won at polling stations was pivotal to NPP's win, as they learnt their lessons, did their homework well, whilst the NDC were too sure of another rigging exercise to rubber-stamp them in power. It was the vigilance and shrewdness of the NPP against NDC's complacency, arrogance of inexperienced babies with sharp teeth and over reliance on rigging. The message is, simply learn how to win elections genuinely and work towards it. Working to tarnish the image of your opponent and dirty propaganda shall prevail, but only for a little while, as Ghanaians have taught the NDC.

NDC can't Call themselves a thief and corrupt- That is good for NPP. NPP will regn for a long time. At present NPP while waiting for the commencement of the Special Prosecutor office are doing investigations retrieving some of stolen monies from the state during NDC government. Corruption, looting and stealings during NDC 8 year in Power is known to Ghanaians hence the NDC governmentwas voted out in Dec 7,2016. But a committe set up to find out what caused NDC to lose votes in 2016 would not like to mention corruption, stealing and looting of the gov-t appointees. Do the Kwesi Bot Committee thinks they are fooling electorates? Ghanaians know them well.

The simple truth is that, ndc lost the election because of corruption. Those who campaigned in the name of social democratic values were found wanting because they were thinking only of themselves. There was not a single policy which could inspire any Ghanaians to be innovative. All they were interested from top to bottom is chop, chop. They wanted to take us to the dark days in the 1970's .

What l have observed in this Ghana is,there are two types of people- the Angelic and Satanic groups. ie the good honest people and the bad criminal people.The moment the Supreme Court at the Presidential petition hearing ruled in favour of John Mahama,Ghanaians made their decision.The NPP knew from that day,the 2016 elections was going to be a big victory for the party.So they kept cool.All the facts were made clear at the hearing.According to Dr Afari Djan,the EC strong room records what comes from the polling centres countrywide. More so,in 2012 he ordered extra 26,000 pinksheets,with the same seriel numbers and polling station code which was used to replace the original results coming from the polloing stations. Which also explained millions of unsigned pinksheets.So Justice Atubuga said "elections are won at the polling stations ,and not in the Court.Since 1993, only the 2016 elections went without a single attempt by NDC thugs to snatch ballot boxes at the polling stations nationwide.President Mahama needed the EC to manipulate the figures,but the Supreme Court said" she must give the result sheets to each party representative"That order killed the chances of Prez Mahama and his NDC Parliamentarians.The NPP were like having the eagle's eye at each polling station .Justice Atubuga told them what to do and they understood his good advice.It was an overwhelming victory.Going to be repeated again after issueing every Ghanaian,a national I D Card. The NDC is finished, the Angels of God are in charge,thank you Lord Almighty.
