  Well done Nana. Your observation about NDC is correct . Specifically the ethnocentric attitude is all anti-Asante.. very evil and vicious. I have lived in Asante long enough to realise that NDC has exploited the imaginary fear of other minor tribes of Asantes to create tribal tensions to keep Asantes out of central power to reduce their influence. It's not for nothing that out of 250 Ghana medical scholarship students in Cuba, only 4 are
  indigenous Asantes. The Asante Region representation are mainly the Isas, Abdulais, Dogbes,
  Armas, Okujetos, Djokotos, living in Asante region. NDC hate filled tendencies 'to show' Asantes are in the roots of their politics.... they have trumpeted tribalism to keep one tribe out and for us to accept their misrule and mediocrity. More to follow.

  Everybody knows that the NPP is the source of the most bigoted and ethnocentric garbage that emanates from the Ghanaian political circus. This crap of an article is not any different.
  
  Which ethnic or religious group are the Asantes going to fight against for the actions of Mahama? Yes, I am aware that Ewes and Gas have been pointed out as the persons the Asantes must kill. You "these Akans" are just simply pathetic! The NDC is simply very good at turning the tables on u by throwing back at u your ethnocentric actions and utterances.

  Nana Akwah, your article is not only dead wrong with its illogical conclusions but best not worthy of the time and space on the poster board. The one question most in the NPP and NDC are yet to answer is are we doing great in Ghana now than prior to 1966? If we are doing great why all the fuss? If not why not and who is to blame? The one thing lacking in Ghana with our political and educated thinkers is the inability to be forthright. People who love the NPP are reminiscent of the "good old" Kufour days yet Kufour's NPP did not adhere to best democratic values, practices and procedures; his admirers defer to his achievements with school feeding, cocoa spraying, Youth employment, National health insurance scheme and others which are all socialist ideals and practices. Yet it is the NPP and parent UGCC/UP/matemeho group that led us to overthrow Nkrumah's CPP for socialist practices. NDC could not be any more corrupt than the NPP; NPP hate what they see in NDC practices because they are magnified mirror images of NPP practices. NPP members can huff and puff all they want until the cows come home but not the NPP and or the NDC is going to take Ghana to war; no not in yours or my lifetime Nana Akwah.
