It is about time these Trokosis to use their heads and stop voting 99.9% NDC all the time. The wind of change is blowing everywhere, especially in the North, except Trokosiland. Think Ghana, abandon your hate for my Kookoase cousins, and use your Trokosi coconut heads wisely. BTW, that is not say vote NPP; i mean to tell you to use your brains to vote wisely. The wind of change is blowing everywhere in the world:talk of the US, Gambia, Ivory Coast, Nigeria...

Nii Teiko, you must be the biggest idiot on the planet. You think Nana Addict is a better leader than Prez. Mahama? He cannot even run his party. Nana Addict is the only person who is retarding our progress in Ghana. He would go abroad with his stupid Vice and paint dire economic pictures about Ghana. This is not patriotism, it is stupidity. Why dont you ask the Ashantis and Eastern regions to change their voting patterns? Anyway this time the dire is cast. I will single handedly retire him whether he likes it or not. We've had enough of him. This a journey of no return. Bye bye Nana Addict and your cohorts.

The number of Ashanti NDC voters can win about 3 constituencies in the Volta region so who are u fooling? Anyway, Ashanti is more developed so if you like, remain where you are. Come and see the new kejetia sttucture, it will boost commercial activities and make us richer while you continue living in poverty.
Ashantis are learning on manipulting the system. Just by changing our hands a little in the direction of NDC, the ruling govt is falling over heels to bring developmental projects just so he can get more votes. Even if NDC wins, Ashanti will see more development than Volta so continue shoring yourself in the foot.

Wise man as you Ve always been,I respect you because you don't predict elections,poverty is a desease I'm happy you don't glorify poverty,your congregation offer you opportunity not to only preach the bible but shape the minds of your people towards basic necessities in life,light bills,water,school fees and hunger is not a respecter of political parties,in fact our daily life's sorviver solely on our incomes,small or big and how sustainable it's.Pastor you re not hungry in anyway so don't stop short of saying what's right for fear of insults from man as the case has always been whenever you speak the truth,please develop a thicker skin for your reward is not from man.Im sad at the economic indicators even from the government,no matter how bad it appears they throw dust in our eyes,the few educated ones re not those who decide our future but the most uneducated in the rural areas,the elites re decided equally depending on what you get from where one belongs leaving the majority of the illiterates to be bought with goodies during elections because re used to their lifestyle and the environments they live in,it's really sad.

Ghana vote JM for the ff reason:
1. He is God fearing and the God chosen for Ghana.
2. He is sincere, honest, trustworthy, not a liar, peaceful, grateful, not envious.
3. He is a visionary leader who knows where he is taking Ghana and how to get there. He is realistic with his promises and he is dev Ghana systematically
4. he is not a back stabber. He doesnt look at the Ga s and pretend he loves them whilst habouring a low opinion about them shitting all over Accra and so wants to change the capital
5. He has not surrounded himself with drug barons.
6. he doesnt curse EC by breaking eggs and schnapps at his party head office
7. He is a unifier. He doesn't sack his elected party chairman and gen sec and vice chairman because they are straightforward with accountability and cash management
8. JM has the swag. He is presidential in looks and attitude and character. A handsome man that all will be proud to point out as our president.
9. The diplomatic community doesnt look at him with suspicion of cocaine
10. JM is energetic, has enthusiasm, he is intelligent and doesn't ran away from GBC debate and that of IEA, and above all he is a man of integrity.

Thank you for choosing JM.

BREAKING NEWS.

The biggest radio station in Benin ( SAAHTIN FM )has exposed that,
They have seen the general secretary of the governing national democratic congress(NDC).JOHNSON ASIEDU NKETIA at one biggest juju man's house.

To their further investigation they hinted that the juju man has ordered the NDC not to use any paint,billboards,stickers and posters again but they have to start using materials to cover trees.

Again the ask that ghanaians should ask them selves where is the general Secretary of ndc.JOHNSON ASIEDU NKETIA.

He is in Benin nw,latest directions given to him is that before they can win this election they have to kill one of their party gurus.either their flag barrier,their veep,their general secretary,deputy general secretary,and their chairman.one of these must die before if not they will lose.

Expect this greatest discovery on media nw,for further explanation and understanding.

What's this NPP disguised Pastor saying??? Instead of joining Nana on the campaign platform, he's deceiving and misleading innocent souls who are serious about going to heaven.

Pastor Otabil's admonition seem harmless and looks neutral. But it is clearly based on the faylty assumption that all these years people do not consider these things before voting. This assumption is completely false. What ever reason for which one votes for one party or the other remains the voters right and decision. I have suggested that while one person votes on tribal lines, others may also vote for economic reason while others may vote for peace and security reasons. Some one has responded that they used to carry yellow gallons to walk distances to fetch water but for the past three years water is flowing in his tap. They used to travel very far for secondary school and now they have one within walking distance. Electricity was a great problem now it is over. Health facility was several kilometers away now it within their town. Who caused these positive changes, it was Mahama and the NDC. So if this man votes for JM does that mean he did not think about the three points Otabil raised?

Otabil should stop making these false assumptions that underpin his remarks. As a man of God just teach the truth of Scripture and let the people make their own decision. Don't tell them what to think.

There are seven presidential candidates running for the presidency. They include President John Mahama of the governing NEW PATRIOTIC PARTY (NDC),
So tell me which party won.

I thought the pastor will tell them to consult GOD through prayers for directions and guidance. Does he want the people to make the choice without GOD and then turn back to GOD when the going gets tough? I expect the so called men of GOD learn from what the disciples did when they decided to look for replacement for Judas Iscariot.

Where is the Godly direction in this? So much disappointed in these so called men of God. There is a great sickness of dishonesty, pretense, lies, tribalism, discrimination, corruption etc at the heart of these supposed men of God and their members in every nook and cranny of society - offices, market, Church, banks, cars etc when these men of God and their members either cannot or will not denounce evil- corruption, lies, tribalism, discrimination, false pretense when it is seen. It is an unmistakable sign of decadence, disastrous, culturally self-hatred when these men of God would focus their preaching on earthly stuff than the kingdom of God. Corruption in politics is the failure of these same men of God. They are scattered all over these churches. As yourself if these corrupt politicians would be comfortable in a church where Jesus is the officiating pastor. Shame on you fake men of God.These men of God are not seeking the kingdom of God but amassing wealth just like the politicians.Judgement day is awaiting you all. You should know that there is no sin greater than leading God's people astray.

it's quite interesting to know that anytime we mention colonisation we attribute it to the Whites...but looking at the comments of some "matured" and well meaning Ghanaians,I think political parties have rather colonised our minds so much that we are controlled by strident adulation of the philosophies of our political affiliations... I think slavery is not abolished but in coma since we can't even make logical and reasonable conclusions of any statement we hear because we are being controlled by a canker of 'if he is not thinking like me then he is wrong' ...this will not help our nation in any way...In this election Ghana wins not NDC,npp,PPP,PNC ..etc...God bless us all..#Ghanawinselection2016#
