    You said it right: it is wishful thinbking for these NPP rogues to expect that the 9 judges will rule in favour of the defeated wee- smoker called Akufo-Addict. How stupid can these NPP people be?

    After spending money trai ...

    INSTEAD OF GOING TO FIND SOMETHING USEFUL TO DO AND THEY HAVE BEEN SITTING IN COURT. THEIR GREATEST HOPE IS THAT THE CORRUTION IN THE JUDICIARY WILL HELP THEIR CAUSE. UNFORTUNATELY THE TV CAMERAS IN THAT COURT ROOM WILL REDUC ...

    Believe me, this idiot name is not Dankwa Fredua. I am not saying there are no Akans in NDC but this has been the strategy these NDC Party stalwarts have adopted to use Akan names to write articles and one man just popped up ...

  • AB 10 years ago

    Theo what is wrong with some of you with this Akan mindset? Does it resonate with you that in Wenchi Mahama won? Do you get it? Grow up please.

  • kofi abakah 10 years ago

  • Grande gueule 10 years ago

    Sweet Sweet analyses. Great to have intelligent ghanaian so far.We are just too ignorant as a people. Thank you for this explicit masterpiece.

  • kofi abakah 10 years ago

    You just have to be of average intelligence to know the facts put accross by Fredua (great write, kudos). It is either that people are refusing the see the obvious, or are too daft to appreciate the truth

  • Kalira 10 years ago

    Case closed by fredua.

  • KAKABO 10 years ago

    If the writer had read the electoral law he would have realized that the onus to ensure free and fair election lies with the Electoral commissioner and not party agent. A party agent is just an invitee to the Poling station t ...

    In the US there are no poling agents, yet still they have irregularities. Sore losers will blame everybody but themselves.

  • Ndebugre, USA 10 years ago

    NDC bribed every polling agent thinking that will be the only decider of elections. What they forgot was the doctrine of checks and balances. If you bribe polling agents, the pink sheets will betray you. If Afari Gyan cheats ...

    I will like you guys to read Article 49 (3) of our Constitution to appreciate the duties of a polling agent during our election.

  • Accapella 10 years ago

    Elections are won not only at the polling station and this is something the writer should consider, because that is not what happened in the last election. It should not be out of place for our elections to take at least thre ...

    I wonder why some NDC people at times use half thinking approach to solve problems. A man sent his wife to go and deposit $1000 in his Bank accounts in UK. Unfortunately instead of writing $1000 the woman wrote $100. She ho ...
