  NANA SHORTINGO AND NPP CAN'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT IF ALL AKANS VOTE FOR THEM, AND ALL THE MINORITIES VOTE FOR THE OTHER PARTY, NPP WOULD ALWAYS LOSE. THEY ARE CONFUSED/ MISLED BY THINKING THAT BECAUSE TWI IS SPOKEN WIDELY AND AKANS DOMINATE THE COUNTRY CULTURALLY, IT MEANS ASANTE-AKYEM/ NPP OWNS THE COUNTRY OR ARE 90% OF THE POPULATION. NDC WINS BECAUSE THEY MAXIMIZE THEIR STRONGHOLDS AND ALSO GET VOTES FROM ALL OTHER TRIBES AND AREAS. AKUFO-ADDO (MORE SO THAN KUFUOR) IS JUST AN ALOOF, LAZY AND SHAMELESS POLITICIAN WHO DOES NOT REALIZE THAT STRETCHING THE TRIBALIST AKYEM-ASANTE HEGEMONIST AGENDA IS WHAT IS CAUSING THEM TO LOSE. THE LARGE MAJORITY OF akans WILL VOTE FOR THEM BUT IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO GET THEM OVER 50%+1

  Ok, so enjoy your NDC dumsor, cash and carry government. You're accusing NPP of tribal hatred, but your own tribal bigotry is evident in your opinion you just put out here.

  I don't know who this Bediako guy is but he obviously regards all the prejudiced nonsense of his NDC leaders from "Asomdweehene" Jerry Rawlings to John Mahama and Asiedu Nketiah and other NDC goons in between as sanitized language to be edified by Ghanaians. What a crock of dung!!!

  Alexander Bediako, you wasted your time by being politically bias in your argument. Discerning citizens would have taken you seriously if you'd included the following:
  
  1)" I will make Ghana like Kenya",
  
  2)"Vote for me, Northerners are tired of being Vice-Presidents"
  
  3) "Adze wo wo fie a oye"
  
  When Rawlings targeted Akan entrepreneurs and demolished their businesses, wasn't it TRIBAL? Or your thinking only tells you that tribal has to be ONLY rhetorical?

  Mr Bediako,
  Were you trying to talk about the 'Afrophobic or xenophobic' attacks in RSA and the lessons for Ghanaians or you mistakenly ended up writing about Osafo Marfo?
  Your article reminds me of a good old essay topic when we were in secondary school in Ghana in those days about a topic on a "bird",Guess what? the author ended up writing about a "tree" because, birds normally sit on trees. wow!
  Please, you may have a point, but learn how to make a good point at the appropriate time. Your title has nothing to do with what you have written!
  Thanks.
