NPP can make it in 2016

Wed, 22 Jun 2016 Source: Kessey, Michael

As the wind of change is blowing all over the country it would be unwise if I don’t utilize this God-sent opportunity to give a piece of advice and also urge the largest opposition party the New Patriotic Party (NPP) the only option for the good people of Ghana to fight a good fight like a wounded lion to unseat the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the upcoming 2016 general elections to prove to the good people of Ghana that “He who fights and runs away lives to fight another day”.

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) with a united front defeated the NDC in 2000 general elections and inherited an empty coffers after power had been handed over to them by the destroyers (NDC) who had squandered virtually everything and were bold enough to tell the good people of Ghana they had drained our coffers and they are going to see how NPP can manage the spoilt Ghanaian economy and survive the mess they had created.

It was surprising to know the man who had great vision for the good people of Ghana former President J. A. Kufour and his abled men like our presidential candidate Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo and his Vice Dr .Alhaji. Mahammud Bawumia the (economic prophet) dreamt yet another dream and they were able to prove to the good people of Ghana that impossibility is not in their dictionary and they believed with God all things are possible and because they had a good team they were able to prove to their predecessors they can create something out of nothing. Anytime the PNDC/NDC is in power they put the people of Ghana into poverty-stricken.

By the grace of God former President J. A. Kufour and his technocrats who had seen it all in life took Ghana from grass to grace and their good governance in (8) years gave hope to the hopeless even though they did not boast they are “Social Democrats” who have the plight of the common man at heart unlike their main political opponents the NDC with the “I care for you” slogan with a “Better Ghana” agenda which has become a bitter Ghana pill too difficult for the good people of Ghana to swallow.

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) believed NPP put Ghana in its rightful place that offered the good people of Ghana a good and sound Ghana very attractive to local and foreign investors that was the reason why in their quest to win power they promised the good people of Ghana if they are given the mandate they would give us “Better Ghana” which contains a nice package with high hopes such as armed robbery would be a thing of the past, One time premium with the NHIS, Fuel prices would be reduced drastically, Job creation would be in abundance for our youths and many others. Surprisingly, they have been in power for almost eight (8) years and the best they have been able to do for the good people of Ghana is depriving us of all the good social interventions NPP laid for us to have our fair share of the national cake.

Worst of it all is that they have continued to deepen the woes of the good people of Ghana with their wicked and killer taxes and levies on import duties and utility tariffs to the extent that some customers die of shock just after receiving their unprecedented electricity bills. The NDC communicators and PURC have deliberately given the dog a bad name and they want to hang it. The one who appointed the Board of Directors and managers of ECG and imported this killer Usain Bolt Smart meters with wicked software with huge sums of dollars and the toothless PURC should be blamed for the mess ECG have caused it numerous customers.

It saddens my heart whenever I hear NDC communicators trying to throw dust into the eyes of the good people of Ghana linking NPP to the challenges in ECG with regards to their horrific increases in monthly bills. They have also started pointing accusing fingers on NPP’s administration of bringing prepaid meters into the system during their tenure of office to replace the manual meters which was not replaced by force. What they have failed to tell the good people of Ghana is that whilst NPP’s prepaid meters cause no harm to it users their Usain Bolt Smart killer meters is just the opposite. The new Cape coast stadium they are boasting they have built when it rains matches can’t be played but all the ones NPP built matches can be played on it when it rains heavily.

Nothing is too hard for the Lord, and with God all things are possible. Once our great party (NPP) continues to have faith in the Lord and believes that the battle still remains the Lord’s victory 2016 would be our portion. If God says yes, no one can say no. The wind of change is blowing all over Ghana and Victory for NPP come 2016 would be made manifest and the good people of Ghana will see it with their naked eyes to the glory of the Lord. No Political Party can overtake NPP to the Flagstaff House because God wants to use NPP to redeem Mother Ghana and put it back on track to bring back the smile on the faces of Ghanaians.

The good people of Ghana are proud of NPP and they are feeling nostalgic of your splendid performance in just eight (8) years as compared to twenty (27) years of PNDC/NDC governance. They are also eager and itching to have a feel of your good governance that created an enabling environment to all Ghanaian importers to the extent that Ghanaians in other parts of the World were ready to come home and set up their businesses here in Ghana to create jobs for the youths who are Ghana’s future leaders.

Today our brothers and sisters in other parts of the world who came home to set up their businesses here in Ghana because of the enabling environment former president J.A Kufour and his administration created for them are all running back to Europe and America as if they are being chased with guns and machetes all because if they continue to live in Ghana where they can call their motherland they will become beggars. They preferred to be called servants in another land where they had acquired their wealth rather than been slaves in their own land.

Today our family members in the diaspora who would have loved to come back home and settle here in Ghana are scared of coming all because of NDC’s mismanagement of the Ghanaian economy. Their own party faithful’s they sponsored with the taxpayers money to go and watch Brazil 2014 World Cup refused to come back home because they believed their lives would be miserable under NDC’s propaganda promises. Nowadays, even lunatics are crying Ghana is too hard under the NDC all because of the fact that nowadays they don’t get food leftovers from the refuse dump and we shouldn’t be surprise if we get up one morning only to hear they have also gone on demonstration to declare their displeasure. Everybody you meet by the road side will be talking by heart as if he/she is talking to someone all because of the hardships the destroyers have brought upon us.
