Katakyie, whilst you may be right in some of the issues you raised in your article, some may be more complex than they appear. For example, on the question of whether Ex-President Kufuor was a better unifier than Akufo-Addo is not that simple. Above all, one must take into consideration the prevailing circumstances in each period. For example, at the time of candidate Kufuor, Ghanaians were fed up with two decades of Rawlings. It was also the belief of most Ghanaians that Rawlings would become de facto president if Mills was elected because of his influence on the candidate and party and how he forced Mills on NDC. Again, the NDC itself was divided by what was known as the Swedru declaration that led to break way parties from NDC. In these prevailing circumstances it was far easier for the smaller parties to join hands with NPP led by candidate Kufuor to unseat the NDC. That was not the case in both 2008 and 2012. In other words, conditions for bringing different political parties together for a common purpose was not present in 2008 and 20012.

You are a member of NPP and therefore may be privy to internal NPP divisions. So you may be right in concluding that there are people around Akufo-Addo who are vindictive which does not augur well for party unity. I have no contrary information or evidence to challenge you on this.

Regarding other issues such as indiscipline or lack of control over leading figures within NPP or those around Akufo-Addo, particularly regarding their language. As an outsider, that appears to be one of the greatest threat to NPP electoral fortunes.It is not only the leading members of NPP but it's appears that may be common even within the party grassroots. I am referring to their language. I am not sure whether this is due to arrogance or what but the constant use of abusive language is disturbing. Just analyse what Mr Obiri Yeaboah, Interior Minister under the Kufuor administration who recently claimed that anyone who wanted the NDC government maintained in office in 2016 should have their brains scanned in a mental health institution was very serious and worrying. He should have known that he was insulting a lot of Ghanaian voters because in every democracy there are voters, families, generations who for various reasons vote for only one particular candidateor political party. For example, in the UK and US some voters always vote Labour or Conservative (Democrat and Republican party respectively). Either for ideological reasons or not some voters will not change their vote irrespective of the socio-economic conditions or candidates. That is also the same in Ghana. So for him to come out with such a statement as a politician was very sad. It is even dangerous because there is this perception in Ghana that majority of voters from the Northern and Volta regions vote NDC. His statement could be regarded as an insult to such voters.

Having made such irresponsible and abusive claim, how can NPP appeal to such voters to vote for them in 2016? Sadly, no one in NPP has objected to what Obiri Yeboah said.

I say this indiscipline may be widespread because of a family incident, though that is not scientific. A niece of mine in Ghana who is a strong NPP supporter and card bearing member became aware during the election petition that other family members voted NDC. Thereafter, she referred to them as being poor and that is why they voted for NDC. Meanwhile, all of them receive remittance from members of the family abroad. I had to advise her from using party politics to divide the family because as a family, members have always had independent mind to make their own decisions. I gave her an example of myself and two senior brothers (one is her father). I was a Kotoko supporter whilst they were Hearts supporters but that never divided us as siblings from the same parents.

In conclusion, the indiscipline is not only Akufo-Addo problem but NPP wide problem. You can say NDC leading members also use abusive language. Fine.

This writer is delusional to say the least. Clearly, whoever you are Mr writer, must be an Alan supporter. But my question to is: how do you claw back on these views you have on Nana Addo, when he wins the nomination and you are tasked to go campaigning for him? What kind of responses would you provide if asked about this write up?? You have disqualified yourself from campaigning for Nana with your heinous views. You would have no credibility to speak on his behalf. Lastly, this article is counterproductive as it makes the job of NPP difficult, because in the unlikely event of a Nana loss, whoever wins would have a hard time wooing his supporters -and I guarantee you the number is overwhelming with a lot of cash. So get a grip!!!

Oh so you missed my point. Ewe Man, never mind. I am not Gbemela. I am not even afemela. What I am telling some people here is that anytime there is a criticism of NPP that writer is assumed to be an Ewe using an Asante or Akan moniker. I know Katakyie is a hard core NPP man and his concerns for the Party are genuine. However he is openly in support of Alan after he has dumped Nana Addo as he himself puts it and that makes his criticism somehow ineffective. I was using a sarcasm to tell people that not everyone who criticises NPP is an Ewe. Miese egorme nam'a?

some people from the ndc when they hear the truth about their genocide and racist tribalism go into a stupefied frenzy foaming at the mouth thinking that will make their lies and propaganda true . The fact remain the Akans are being systematically denied their rights in their own land , being robbed in broad daylight by this mafia stealing ndc . they even tried to corrupt our morals by forcing down our throats so called sodomy and homosexuality by all surveys prove 98% of the people are firm and steadfastly against such perverse corrupt behavior . the days of the ndc are over but they dont see it , they will not get even 5% of the vote as its now clear to all what their true agenda has always been . The anti Akan mission has failed and we stand stronger than ever before .yes they say anyone who speaks up is illiterate but i say we have gone to the school of hard knocks and graduated from the university of bullshit , right now i am writing my doctorate thesis on the correlation of the female ass shape and the frustration of the people . we see the diverse beauty and fine proportional shape of the Akan woman and compare it to the ugly stinking disproportion of the ayigbe , ga , and pepeni females . We understand the Europeans whose women have bodies with no shape like teenage boys so recognize their inability to differentiate between the sexes and insist that sodomy or gay is right . but for them to come again and misbehave with their cheating bullying and mobbing mentality today is too much, look at even their embassies , almost all of them have walls higher than Jericho or are designed like military bases to keep our people out , i wonder why they even come , we should encourage them to close this offices of oppression and leave , their people are welcome to come but these politicians and their servants are not . in Europe towns with less than 100,000 population have consulates opened but here they all herd up in Accra and talk shit with this EPA, what a nerve , we should cut off their balls and feed it to them . in the meantime after blaming some poor Akan man for the last Turkey/ Iran gold scandal we see now who the real culprits are . Pepeni kwasea himself is putting our gold there as he knows for sure the revolution is coming and he plans to run off to his Islamic criminal brothers .Yes we shall establish a new state based on freedom , equality and justice for all .This idea of reconciliation has denied true justice and all countries that went down that path have only regretted . The Jews didnt accept reconciliation rather up to today hunt down the Nazi criminals , we should deal with jj fake revolutionaries the same way and arrest all of them as a lesson to future generations that crime does not pay no matter the ideology its wrapped in . we see today big men from the ndc trying to cut deals with the npp in secret but we shall never forgive them and make sure they feel the full force of Akan law . their days are numbered , we have defeated them in their propaganda war and now we shall dismantle all their evil

When wise men who can think want to tell us the truth about this Nana Addo, fools who are sycophants take such people on. They have lambasted so many wise men for the sake of this Nana Addo. When will such people see the light? With Akuffo Addo, NPP will be in opposition for ever. The people you are criminalizing because of Nana Addo will show apathy when the time comes and nobody will like to listen to people such as Mustapha and his likes who are nobodies as far as the ordinary voter is concerned.

In 2008, Nana Addo did not lose by 23,000 votes. He lost by more than that. When you look at the mockery of the EC in three Kumasi constituencies in coming out with different figures each time they realised that Nana was not crossing the line, you would have to agree that that "president at all cost" was repugnant as it was an insult to Ghanaian voters. How on Earth could three Kumasi constituencies decide the fate of Ghanaians. When even votes from "oversea" areas in Upper East and Volta regions had announced their results these Kumasi constituencies were taking three days to send their results to Accra. Incredible.Thank God, the diabolical activities of Kwabena Agyepong and other NPP officials at the EC strong room in Accra were checked and halted. They attempted it again in 2012, but Afari Gyan was too smart, so to the Supreme court they went. The records must be set straight, as for the choice of the NPP presidential candidate, that is your own cup of tea.

Okatakyie,
If this is an attempt to shore up Alan’s fortunes among NPP electors, you have probably ended up doing more damage to your idol. Give a little credit to the intelligence of those voters who showed the old executive of the NPP the door to non-performance.

You talk about Nana Akufo-Addo’s weaknesses. How about your Alan? A very disloyal party member if ever there was one. Why did he resign after he lost the election in 2007? Has he really ever apologised to his supporters, in particular and party members in general, for that selfish act, like the young boy at the play ground who catches his ball and asks to be allowed to score a goal or he will take his ball home?

Have you listened to his answer to “Why he is called Alan Cash in his county?” How about the fate of the Cassava Project under the “President’s Initiative?” There are rumours about him selling some Ghana Government property in Washington DC and only accounting to the sitting President. Have you heard about that? Those will be plum campaign topics if he should ever be elected flagbearer by the NPP.

You talk about Nana being divisive. Kufuor may be your idea of a hero, but Afari-Djan’s voodoo mathematics apart , the one person who singlehandedly lost the last two elections for the NPP was Kufuor. From the selfish award of gold medals to himself and opposition Candidate Ata Mills and others, to his supervision/non-supervision of Ghana@50, through the reappointment of Dr Anane to his view of corruption in government “as a matter of perception”, Akufo-Addo’s campaigns were hamstrung from start to finish.

Remember the NPP’s internal elections of 1992 and 1996? All the losers, particularly Nana, never rested till election day and after. What did Alan do after the nominations of 2008 and 2010? I am not Akyem but your reference to “Akyem Mafia” is even more baseless and disgusting than your earlier assertions. So when Kufuor surrounded his presidency with relations and clansmen, he was promoting Asante “Mafiaism.” Sometimes some of you NPP “Stalwarts ” really make me sick!

KKO my sentiments entirely. If anything did it, it was gold chains, so called 'hotel wawaa' and presidential planes and so on. I support the NPP and from afar I felt they were going to lose the 2008 and was very saddened about it. I followed the fever pitch negative onslaught from the NDC and NPP's inability to ride them out had a gut feeling they were going to bring back these Rawlings patsies.Every mud thrown at them stuck! And as night follows day, they lost. He Kuffuor cannot be absolved of this, in 2000 after the claim that Ghanaians were so fed up with Rawlings and wanted change he didn't win by a landslide but rather cooperation by the smaller parties. So enough of the hype about Kuffuor's achievements, a good leader's job is also to ensure his actions hands over power to like-minded to secure a legacy. What good is Kuffour's legacy now the NDC has been and destroyed most of his and NPP achievements.

Ghanains ar more educated dan u can think of. we believe he hs been choseen by God dats y he progresses any time u try to bring him down. bt dnt forget to use yr real name the next time u pop up.....
