His field is not social science and so he has problems operating in the social domain; he belongs to some theatre or lab; that small space where he has always been in charge, dealing with equipment and human parts which are without opinions to resist any attempt to be smeared. The moment you tag people as fake, a whole organization, you are only setting yourself up for an attack. You cannot do that. The organization has served you, don’t destroy it for the young ones to follow when your time seems to be passing. You cannot die out with the npp. You came to find it and will die and leave it; don’t try to destroy it. What is going on in the npp is succession problem and nothing serious; every party goes though that at a point in time. It is just that the npp is too democratic about it than the NDC which is why we are seeing more conflicts in the npp.

Is this woman suggesting that good Ghanaians should not politics? Who then should, the criminals? Doesn't make sense to me. Where there's a fake NPP people should be free to talk about it.

My advice and caution to successful Ghanaians, who have excelled in other fields is they shd stay away from politics. Criminals in our society have made our politics very dirty.Prof Frimpong Boateng made a mistake entering into politics. To an extend Ken Ofori Atta also erred getting involved in national politics. An investment banker with a corporate body like DataBank don't need to do politics, bcoz there will definitely be conflict of interest somewhere along the line.For now he has put the investments of his clients and employees at risk.

Act now as January clocks 17 today...Early starters win all the time, Start Now. Smartphone repair & accessories is one of the few skills that still pays daily, even in hard times. Build up skill in silence - Your best budget this year is your "Training & Personal Development Budget".Train for better daily income this year - Phones break every day. People fix them the same day, that's money changing hands fast. Many unemployed people, even those with jobs — are learning this skill quietly to support themselves, or gifting the book to train siblings, relatives, or community youths. Many are buying copies to empower others this season, instead of giving other gifts that finish. GET Chukky Oparandu’s guide - it breaks it down clearly for beginners: repairs, flashing, accessories sales — the skill opens doors into IT careers. No big capital. Just a skill you earn from once you apply it. If you’re planning ahead for 2026, this is one move people are already making. Rush now, Search “Chukky Oparandu” on Amazon or visit selar.co/m/chukky (French edition "Gagnez de l'Argent en Réparant des Téléphones & Tablettes" Available!). Don’t miss his blockbuster career guide:“IT Career: A Roadmap” ,m

If NDC under Prof Mills had not painfully removed Frimpong Boateng from the CARDIO Center he established, he would not blunder to enter party politics.

Today he says the party that shielded him is fake? Then let him join NDC which must be the real deal for him. Politics is for the matured political mind. He kicked against party line and contributed to NPP's massive loss at the polls. I hope he is satisfied with NDC handling of galamsey.

My friend some of these guys enter into politics not bcoz of their selfish desires but rather opportunities for their extended families, friends and classmates.A certain professional I know told me his extended family saw him as a selfish person,when he came down from abroad.They wanted jobs to do, go to school abroad and also help develop his village.His children were well settled in USA & Canada but then his own resources cannot help him meet the expectations the society demands from him.The only solution is to accept the invitation from his classmates who were already in politics.

Professor Frimpong-Boateng is an honorable man. I have met him a couple of times. Very honest and fiercely nationalistic. When I first heard he was contesting the NPP flagbearership after Kufuor, I was shocked. He had everything to lose in the murky world of African politics. Lo, the chickens have come home to roost. Look how Justin Koduah, their general secretary - a nonentity not fit to tie the professor’s shoes - addressed him publicly. No respect. Smh.

He should have weighed the odds as well in the same way Kofi Annan, the former UN SG did and refused to align with any political party in Ghana. Am accomplished Surgeon that he is, his children too should have intervened. What the ordinary Ghanaian needs to know is that, descendants of that venomous viper that stole our golden egg (Dr Nkrumah) for food have grown even more dangerous fangs and in their numbers.

i share this lady`s sentiments. people who are not even qualified to lace his boots are now insulting him left and right. his offence is producing a truthful report about galamsey. most of the real politicians are dishonest so they wanted him to sweep the conspiracies and the corrupt practices under the carpet. because of his appointment and that of martin amidu, sometimes it makes me wonder if akuffo addo had good intentions but some people around him hijacked his presidency.

Entering into politics by The Professor is NOT the problem but the type of Political party and the Characters of the leading members of that party is the problem. It is rather Unfortunate that the good professor has to endure this kind of humiliation. It’s never too late to make a quick JUMP Out of a Sinking Vessel.
