The other day, I jumped at one of the do-littles in the NDC
administration in the name of Dr. Tony Aidoo who
failed miserably as Head of Monitoring and Evaluation at the Presidency and
should have been booted out dishonourably into the Afram Plains Kogyae Forest.
I learn he is now being considered as a redundant Ghana Ambassador of nothingness
to Tiera Del Fuego. Countrymen, Ghana is carrying useless burdens oo oo.
The subject matter was the 2008
and 2012 elections and the reasons for the NPP losses. This, do- little Dr
Aidoo had in Radio Rwanda ‘Alhaji and Alhaji’ attributed to the offensive
body language of Nana Akufo Ado, the NPP flagbearer on both occasions, which
shows that the latter is arrogant and so full of himself such that he is
shunned by the electorate – giving the indication that NPP would register
another loss if Akufo Ado is fielded again in 2016.
I argued against Dr. Tony
Aidoo. I pointed out that his prescription was a pretext; just one of the usual
reasons given to confuse and bamboozle the people to rationalize why people
voted against NPP and thus cleverly HIDING THE REAL REASONS, WHICH ARE AGELONG
DEEP-SEATED ANTI-ASHANTI SENTIMENTS IN THE BODY POLITIC.I made the
point forcefully that every electionin Ghana has been a referendum on a
so called Ashanti hegemony. It is pure tribal game and people don’t say
it, because of its negative repercussions.

NDC are adept at playing games to hide their tribalistic manoeuvrings
against NPP. All of a sudden one of their arrogant braggarts, in the name of Managing
Editor of the Insight newspaper, Kwasi Pratt, using the same medium of Radio
Rwanda ‘Alhaji and Alhaji’, last Saturday, deviated from do-little Dr
Aidoo’s prescriptions, stating his own prescriptions as to why NPP should lose
the 2016 Presidential elections. I have been a Ghana political watcher from
the Limann years up to the present Mahama years and frankly this gigantic fake Kwasi
Pratt does not cease to amaze and shock me with his arguments and comments.
Sounding blatantly and overtly cocky he talked blah, blah,
blah to draw unnecessary attention to himself, that – ‘’corruption allegations
levelled against
the leadership of the opposition NPP by Ken Agyapong, Assin Central MP have damaged
the NPP beyond
repair and that they could affect the party’s chances of winning the 2016
general elections. He stated that a party accused of being corrupt even
in opposition cannot be trusted to effectively manage the public purse if voted
into power. Kwesi Pratt said it is now evident that NPP’s claim about
the NDC being corrupt is a typical case of the pot calling the kettle black---
(http://www.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/artikel.php?ID=295862)
So according to Kwasi Pratt because of corruption allegations involving
150 motorbikes against NPP executives in 2012, NPP should lose the 2016
Presidential elections. This is one reason which reinforces my regard of Kwasi
Pratt as a gigantic fake unfortunately unleashed by fate onto the Ghana political
platform. He is damnably acute
and deceitful, borne out of pure hatred for NPP and what they stand for. He
just wants to score undeserved political points for NDC with his warped
thinking. NDC administrations from Prof Ata
Mills in 2008 to present day Mahama are steeped in known gargantuan corrupt
deals running into several billions of dollars and deceitful Kwasi Pratt, who
believes corruption is a criteria voters should use to determine choices, wants
us to forget NDC gross corruptions and use NPP alleged corruption on 150
motorbikes to decide the elections.
President
Mahama himself is under investigations for over $80m EMBRAER plane deals. (I
ask, when is the WK. Aboah Committee sitting?) Woyome fraud payments are more
than $25m. Also, CP, GYEEDA, ISOFOTON, SADA,, SUBA Waterville etc corrupt deals
are in the region of $1.5b. The allegations about $5,000/$50,000 payments to
each of the 250 medical students on Cuba scholarship hanging on NDC are
unresolved. NDC champion Rawlings has himself alleged that Mills/Mahama administrations
are the most corrupt in Ghana’s political history. International Corrupt Index
Ratings rate Ghana the highest under NDC governments. Deceitful Kwasi Pratt
thinks corruption is a major determinant of the 2016 Presidential vote. But
still, he wants us to ignore all these NDC out-of this-world crimes and rather
vote out NPP because of 150 motorbikes palaver. Haaba! I still
contend that NDC campaign weapons against NPP are on false reasons thus hiding
the tribal tendencies they invoke to win power. Pratt is an expert in the art. They
will be exposed.
I have
had occasion to engage Kwasi Pratt challenging him why he lambasted the Kufuor
administration
for failing to exploit the limestone and pozzolana deposits at Oterpkolu and
why surprisingly, ever since the advent of Mills/Mahama in 2008, Kwasi Pratt
has stopped completely all his ‘Oterkpolu’ comments as if ‘Oterkpolu’ has
ceased to exist in this NDC era.

As for Kwasi Pratt, my impression about him is that he is a dangerous fake with
non-existent
intergrity, and that all the air time he arrogates to himself from radio
station to radio station screaming off deliberate twists are borne out of
hatred for NPP and deep seated ethnocentric biases. When will Kwasi Pratt stop
dancing around the issues?
