Let me remind all the NPP members the argument Nana Akufo-Addo made at the party’s Congress in Sunyani in 1998 in his opposition to giving candidate John Agyekum Kufuor the second chance after losing to Rawlings in 1996. Here was Nana Akufo: “I call on members of the party [NPP] to embrace change in leadership of the party. Such changes are far from harming the fortunes of the party. Change improves the chances of political parties as a new face eventually means new ideas, new methods and new strategies…any candidate elected as the NPP's flag-bearer has already secured 30% of the total valid votes. Failure to garner the remaining 20% plus 1 means the candidate has failed, and therefore must be changed” (ref: Ghana Daily Graphic, October 8, 1998). If John Kufuor back then did not deserve to be nominated for the second consecutive time, why is it okay now for Nana Akufo-Addo to seek the party’s nomination the third consecutive time, having led NPP to two painful electoral defeats in 2008 and 2012? Well, it seems like Nana Akufo-Addo is getting ready to take NPP to the electoral slaughterhouse in 2016 all over again. Let the self-denials ignore the warnings

You cannot require all Ghanaians to take part in cleaning on such saturdays so long as as the districts assemblies to tax the people. What are the MPs common fund for.
Also, some people go to church on Saturdays. Are you going to tell those Seventh Day Adventists not to go to church on those days. Ask Oko Van and Sir John if they agree with you because they are Adventist.
What is very much needed is education and the government ensuring that trash at site are taken on time, zoom lion people are paid on time.

If that is the case, then we need a template to assess the Minister's position. That is, he needs to set the objectives of his sanitation exercise, then he needs to state expected outcomes, then, outline criteria for the determination of excellence, then at the end of the year, data will be collected on the sanitation exercise, and then compare data to the previously stated expected outcomes to determine whether set targets have been reached. This should be a template of evaluation & assessment for all government projects. Period!!!!

They don't understand how to relate the solutions to the problem. They come up with wakye seller's strategies and do not coordinate their efforts. They need the involvement of the police, health ministry, finance, education ministries to enforce, finance, educate as well as understand the risks and mitigating activities. One idiotic minister cannot do it on his own so he might as well resign now. Asking people to come out and clean is primitive. Are we going to get tax refunds?
