The persistent acrimonious relations between the NPP and the ruling NDC, which have been aggravated by the crude intrusion of tribal politics and the continued dishonest phenomenon of media recklessness and the extreme wild provocative inflammatory utterances of politicians clearly show that the 2012 election is not going to be violence free because the two major parties see it as a DO or DIE affair which should not be the case since Ghana is bigger than the NDC and NPP. It will be unpardonable and ungodly for the leaders of the two parties to impart these negative tendencies into the youth of Ghana. Quo Vadis, Ghana? Since Ghana returned to constitutional rule in 1992, sycophancy, stomach politics, Pull Him Down syndromes, individualism, greed and extreme selfishness have taken over from Decency, patriotism honesty, truth and integrity in the political parties especially the NDC and the NPP. Some party executives from both sides of the political divide would say anything, support anything, so long as that will REAP THEM PERSONAL DIVIDENDS, it would not matter how BIZZARE these positions are: By so doing they are gradually crippling the NATIONAL INTEREST with these NEGATIVE TENDENCIES. The NATIONAL INTEREST is fast drying up because the NPP practices property owning democracy when they are in power and the NDC practices Social Democracy but when they are in power what do we see and what are we seeing today? Answer: I leave it to all NDC members and Ghanaians in general. So no COMMENT from this writer. The NDC says they are social democrats when in opposition, but when the party win elections and form a government they becomes capitalist Democrats where individualism, greed selfishness, nepotism, sycophancy and back biting is the order of the day. Meanwhile, all those top party Executives in the NDC as well as some government appointees who had described Rawlings as an OUTCAST including all those who told Cadres that they are Rawlings Boys from the White House who would NOT GET ANYTHING from the ruling government since 2009 to date must be treated with the CONTEMPT THEY DESERVE. They were simply exposing their IGNORANCE because Mills is the Recognized No.1 Rawlings Boy in Ghana. All Cadres nationwide must put the Bitter past behind them and THROW THEIR WEIGHTS and their everything behind Mills for a John and John ticket in 2012. The Best Team to move Ghana Forward in total PEACE and not tribal bigots and war mongers. The NPP says they are capitalists and when they come to power, they practice property owning democracy and put up mansions, they cater for their hard working party supporters and reward their known polling station agents very well. If you arrest a single NPP member at any polling station in Ghana, the whole world will hear about that arrest and the NPP leadership would move Heaven and Earth to release him – E. G. The case of Nana Darkwa who was picked from a radio station by the Police in Nima for saying that “Rawlings burnt his own residence”
(2) Kennedy Agyapong”s declaration of WAR in Ghana saw the whole NPP machinery moving to free him in criminal solidarity with him. You try such a thing in the NDC, and you will rot in prison while your party supporters tease and jubilate over your plight by saying that YOU ARE TOO KNOWN. At worst, the party will even disown you by saying that you are not a card bearing NDC member – what an incurable disease in the NDC! There is Division in the NDC while there has been and is still total unity in the NPP with 100% plus solidarity index, while in the NDC it- has a mere 2% solidarity index, some of us are extra careful on the political trail. The fierce quest for power has created UNCERTAINTY and UNREST in some parts of the country as it braces itself for the 2012 elections and we must expect several violence and mis-understandings during the heat of the campaign to convince Ghanaians to vote for the various political parties. I however hope Ghana’s Security Agencies are capable of supervising a peaceful elections in 2012 because they are up to the task.
POLITICAL CONCERTS
Because of the heightened political atmosphere in Ghana, I am cracking some few jokes in the form of comedies played by leading members of both the NPP and the NDC, so NOBODY whose name will be mentioned by this writer should take offence as a result of what I write about him or her – it is only a joke.
1) Nana Akuffo Addo, the NPP flag bearer incited NPP members to be prepared to die for him to become President of Ghana at all cost. By saying “All Die Be Die” – He must show NPP members a leadership by Example and DIE FIRST if death is sweet. 2) President J.E.A. Mills replied him by saying that Ghana will Not Die. He is 100% correct. 3) If the Yutong Bus Driver is Dozing Give Him Coffee – Vice Prez. John Mahama. Yest, this is the best time to give coffee to the Yutong Driver. 4) We Will Take Back NDC – Former President J.J. Rawlings. You are the Founder of the NDC, so you will take back the NDC from who? Answer: you will take NDC back from yourself and give it to who? Michael Teye Nyaunu must now start preparing the coffee every morning for President Mills the Yutong Driver to stop dozing and send Ghana to the Promised Land in 2012.
5) SADAM – Sons And Daughters of Atta Mills, I heard this strange name during the run-up to the National Delegates Congress of the NDC in Sunyani on July 9th 2011. I beg to disagree with that group by far, because Mills is a God fearing man of Peace and so, he can not be named after a murderer and former dictator and war monger like Prez. Sadam Hussein of Iraq who was hanged by George Bush and Tony Blair in Iraq for no offence committed. 6) The NDC Lost the Election in The First Week of 2009 – Was Rawlings campaigning For His Wife To Become An Opposition Leader in 2012 then? Jerry Rawlings must cease fire now. 7) GAME – Get Atta Mills Elected and FONKAR replied thus: Get Atta Mills Ejected, Well, he has been Elected and not Ejected, so all hands must be on deck now for Mills to Capture Victory over the NPP – period. Is that clear? Frankly speaking, Rawlings has now become unpredictable but he must remember that he is better off by far in the NDC rather than Nana Akuffo Addo. 8) Rawlings Must Take His Shares From the NDC – Hon. E.T. Mensah. Now, the man is attempting to actually obey you by taking his shares from the NDC in 2012, and you are now quiet – why, dear Comrade? 9) Rawlings Can Go To Hell – a deputy Minister of State – Rawlings is making serious efforts to distance himself from the NDC in order to go to Hell as directed by the deputy minister, and All Hell is about to break loose in the NDC – why? 10) Flies Always Follow The one who carries Fresh Meat instead of the man who carries charcoal because they will die of hunger if they decide to follow the charcoal carrier – Alhaji Sanni Snr. Former Vice Chairman of the Regional NDC in Kumasi. Today, even those who follow the owner of the fresh meat including this writer are more hungry than those following the charcoal carrier since July 9th 2011. The fresh meat is about to get rotten and we need the charcoal to smoke the fresh meat to prevent it from rotting, what do you say my Northern Brother?
11) Rawlings Time has passed – Mr. Yaw Obimpeh, Current Regional Chairman of the NDC in Kumasi – in 2012, Has Rawlings time not passed still, as the 10 Regional Chairmen met recently to define ways of bringing back the man whose time has passed to campaign in 2012? 12) You Rawlings Boy – I can’t work with you – Ashanti Regional Minister. What will happen if they go and meet Rawlings and he ask him whether he now wants the votes of the Rawlings Boys during the 2012 elections? 13) Where were you when me and my husband were booed and hooted at in Sunyani? – Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings in answer to a delegation of Volta Chiefs – They replied that they did not go to her to do politics – they were right. She is the Mother of the party and her husband is the Father of the party, so they must forget the past and mount the campaign platform, and dance “Azonto” with Mills, John Mahama, Asiedu Nketia, Dr. Kwabena Adjei, Anita Desou so, E.T. Mensah, Ofosu Ampofo, Huudu Yahaya, Cadman Mills, Ato Ahwoi, Tony Aidoo, Betty Mould Iddrisu, Ade Coker etc. that is the proper platform for the Rawlingses to dance “Azonto” and Not, repeat Not on the platform of the NPP led by Nana Akuffo Addo the tribal bigot, war monger and vengeful loser in the 2008 election. Are the Rawlingses listening to me very well? I hope they are. They must never repeat another Swedru in 2012 at all. 14) Don’t Mention My Name – J.J. Rawlings to the NDC when his name was mentioned in the Media Stating that he would be addressing the NDC regional rally in Accra to introduce NDC Parliamentary Candidates – True to his words, he never attended that rally – Now, whose name should the NDC leaders mention? Is he NOT the Founder of the NDC? Yes, he is, so we will always mention his name even if he dies – Cadres will never allow Rawlings to leave Mills in the middle of the road. 15) Rawlings is an Outcast, from 2009-2011 now in 2012 is he still an Outcast or an INCAST?
16) Give me my umbrella, the Logo of the NDC -Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings, are you now an NDC TERMINATOR instead of the Mother of the Party, please don’t do it, it is a political suicide.
THE UNPREDICTABLE RAWLINGS
Jerry Rawlings told Ghanaians that he and his wife were NOT interested in the Presidency but went ahead to fully support his wife to contest the sitting President J.E.A. Mills – yet in his time, nobody could even dream of contesting him at all from 1992 – 2000 – he was the sole candidate. Why now? It is an indictment on the NDC Leadership and NOT on Prez. Mills because according to reliable sources during the campaign to elect the NDC flag bearer in Sunyani, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings had cause to complain that even though she was the First National Vice Chairperson, National Executive Meetings were always postponed whenever she attend those meetings – Why? 2) She had no office at the National Headquarters of the NDC. Why? somebody must speak out. If these nasty state of affairs are not properly resolved before July this year, then NDC must start preparing its handing over notes to the NPP to take over without sweat – we are truly fed up at the grass roots where some Constituency Executives and MMDCEs are doing their own things just because THINGS HAVE FALLEN APART and THE CENTRE CAN NOT HOLD. I say, why Is It So? In September, 1979, Rawlings the then Chairman of the AFRC did not mince words before putting Dr. Hilla Liman on Probation. So his second return to power through an extreme sacrificial bloody revolution on 31st December, 1981 was NO NEWS to all the leading members of the June Four Movement including this writer – because that revolution was neither GOOD nor BAD, but it was very necessary at that time. Secondly, the situation at that time rightly demanded it because Dr. Limann was NOT, and had NEVER being a member of the CPP but rather a dyed-in-the wool member of the United Party (UP) tradition. Somebody must prove me wrong here. Dr. Liman helped immensely in blocking the return of Dr. Nkrumah to Ghana in 1967 when he was a Diplomat at the Ghana Embassy in Togo, so he had to go on 31st December, 1981 and he went against his will because the Progressive Forces who were patriotic nationalistic minded told him to leave the scene by FORCE of ARMS. Now, how long can politicians continue to gamble with the precious lives of Ghanaians? However, a dog which BARKS all the time is given little attention until the ARMED ROBBERS STRIKE before the Landlord then rush to call in the police, and by that time, the robbers would have vanished with their booty. Posterity will never forgive the Rawlingses if they bring down Mills in December, 2012.
President Mills, Vice Prez. John Mahama, Jerry Rawlings, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings, John Agyekum Kufuor, Nana Akuffo Addo and Former Vice Prez. Aliu Mahama ARE NOT IMPORTANT, BUT OUR COUNTRY, GHANA. Is anybody Listening? I am done but keep your fingers crossed for I shall return when the need arise. Aluta Continua! Jaanbie Iwaii.
