Nana, I am a Financial Economist and a practical oriented man and not theoretical oriented. No President can reduce Taxation and still create and implement new projects like what you are promising. You can only increase your inflows (Taxation and borrowings) to finance new projects. Unless you have a lot of surplus cash resting in your bank account somewhere and hibernating,it is impossible to finance 1 factory in each of the 216 districts, $1 million to each of the 275 constituencies; one dam at each village in each of the 3 Northern regions; Free. Free Secondary education; remove some government tax on fuel; reduce corporate tax; reduce tax on imported goods at the ports; remove tax on overtime work; restore Teacher Training and Nursing Training allowances etc,etc. Nana Akufo Addo, please WHERE ON EARTH ARE YOU GOING TO GET THE MONEY FROM TO FINANCE ALL THESE NEW PROJECTS WHILST AT THE SAME TIME REDUCING YOUR INFLOWS OF CASH! Incredible.

He pledged to them during the campaign time in that region & other regions that , if they vote 4 him , he will do this &that to them..Now he's elected.. So he's using this opportunity to go round and thank them and also repeating to them the promises he made to them wasn't a platform talk... To me , he's so grateful to all of us & also ready to do it...we've to get at least some hope in our life ,& Say YES it can happen...rather than thinking negatively.. NHIS others were doubting , but today is still exist...

This promise has been featuring in past manifestos of NPP, NPP and PPP yet upon winning the parties are afraid to implement for the reasons you have stated. But there must be a starting point. That idea comes with a risk of ceding some control of governance to the opposition. Yet it is the surest way of avoiding winner takes all mentality. Next time the NPP will also benefit when they are in opposition.

It's not all about being the President. There is more to that. You have to deliver and leave your mark. President Mahama has left his own. In 4 yes we shall compare.

My utmost concern, asides Nana Addo's job creation and development programs, is the missing people; the so-called "Apathetic" Crowd--5 Million strong--whose names were recorded in our voters register, but strangely couldn't show up to vote.

Ghana's voters register is over-bloated and must be pruned! We can't pretend that everything is okay, once the elections are over; the "ghost names" or "foreign materials" found in our systems must be flushed out. This is the moment; Nana Akufo-Addo and his govt must save Ghana by instructing the Charlotte Osei-led EC to compile a brand new register, in line with the proposed National Identification, House and Street naming exercise ready to be launched by the incoming govt.

It's criminal for the NDC to import foreigners for the purpose of voting during election every elections period in Ghana. When Dr. Bawumia alerted Ghanaians about 78,000 names and IDs of Togolese nationals on our electoral roll, the NDC went on the airwaves to lambaste him.

Guess what? Results of voter turn-up in certain border regions, esp. Volta Region reveals of huge voter apathy; the turnout was very discouraging! Some vigilante groups in the regions had vowed to resist any attempt by foreign elements from participating in the December polls, through their "Operation Eagle Eye" campaign drive.

As a result, hundreds of thousands of Togolese and citizens from Benin, decided to save their skin, so they abstained this time around, from crossing over to vote, for fear of being lynched by locals. They aren't fools!

This is the right time to lay things straight! H. E. President-elect, Nana Akufo-Addo should make it one of his priorities as leader to call for a total overhaul or reform of our electoral system. All the miscreants at the EC, like Amadu Sulley, who for years, have initiated all kinds of dirty election rigging tactics at EC's Headquarters must be retired or retrenched. Elections are meant to be truly free and fair; elections, as we've been told by Justice William Attuguba at the Supreme Court, during the petition filed by late Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey--it's sad that he didn't live to see this victory-- Nana Akufo-Addo and Dr. Bawumia, are won at the polling stations.

The compilation of brand-new electoral roll would build a concrete foundation upon which Ghana's elections should be conducted. Ghana's elections would have taken an entirely new course, devoid of cheating, massaging of ballot figures among others.

It is my fervent hope that my humble plea would meet the consideration and approval of Ghana's incoming President, H.E. Nana Akufo-Addo. May God bless our homeland Ghana.
