  A lot of people feel the same way u do but scared of what will befall them. Akuffo Addo thinks of only himself. He will definately get his reward. Ppl helped u reached the top & he has forgotten too soon.

  Did you ever think of this before electing Kuffuor to power?
  
  How many times did you ask that question before electing Mahama to occupy the seat of the President?
  
  Akan people have a saying like; "If you go there, you know what is there."
  
  Just try Nana-Addo the way you tried Mahama and all the former presidents. Don't sit at your mother's kitchen and ask like a hungry child.

  NANA ADDO DOES NOT HAVE THE LEADERSHIP SKILLS NOR ANY VISION FOR PARTY OR GHANA, BEYOND WANTING TO LIVE AT PEDUASE LODGE AGAIN AND TO ENTERTAIN LIKE BRITISH ARISTOCRATS WITH HIS SELF-ACCLAIMED ELITE, SUPER-GHANAIAN FAMILY AND FRIENDS.
  
  HE JUST A PRETENTIOUS GRANDEE WANNA-BE, PRETENDING TO BE MORE BRITISH THAN EVEN PRINCE CHARLES HIMSELF. CLUELESS, LAZY POLITICIAN WHO JUST ENJOYS BEING A DEMI-GOD AND THE FUNFAIR OF BEING FLAGBEARER. IF YOU ARE HONEST, YOU WOULD SEE THAT HIS CHARACTER IS BEING A SEE-NOTHING, DO-NOTHING LAISSEZ-FAIR "PRESIDENT" WHILE THERE IS UTTER CHAOS BELOW HIM AND WITH MANY SYCOPHANTS TRYING TO PROVE THEY LOVE HIM MORE THAN HIS WIFE BY DOING BUFFOONISH THINGS. HE IS NOT INTERESTED IN THE HARD WORK OF LEADERSHIP OR SOLVING PROBLEMS. SAME WAY IF HE EVER BECOMES PRESIDENT, HE WOULD DELUDE HIMSELF AND TELL GHANAIANS THAT THAT THERE IS NO DUMSOR, POOR ROADS, POOR HEALTHCARE, ETC IN GHANA, WHILES HIS LACKEYS WOULD BE PRAISING HIM AS A DEMI-GOD, THE BEST LEGAL BRAIN IN AFRICA EVER, AND THE BEST BLACK MAN THAT EVER LIVED, PERIOD. MIND YOU THE PROBLEMS OF A DEVELOPING COUNTRY ARE TOO BIG FOR ANY GOVERNMENT TO SOLVE QUICKLY, OTHERWISE IT WOULD ALL HAVE BEEN SOLVED DURING NKRUMAH, BUSIA, ACHEAMPONG, RAWLINGS, KUFUOR AND MILLS/ MAHAMA PRESIDENCIES. YET WE ARE LED TO BELIEVE THAT SOMEONE LIKE NANA ADDO, A LOCAL ACCRA LAWYER WHO HAS LIVED AND WORKED HERE ALL HIS LIFE, WITH NO EXPERIENCE SOLVING ANY COMPLEX LEGAL ISSUES OR MAJOR SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROBLEMS EVEN IN HIS OWN SMALL KYEBI AREA, JUST POMPOSITY AND PRETENSIONS OF BEING SOMEONE SPECIAL IS THE SOLUTION TO ALL OF GHANA AND THE BLACK MAN'S UNDER-DEVELOPMENT!!! THIS IS SOMEONE WHO DIDN'T APPLY HIMSELF IN SCHOOL, GRADUATING WITH A 3RD CLASS DEGREE, SOME ONE WHO WAS MP OF HIS AREA FOR THREE TERMS, YET THERE IS LITTLE DEVELOPMENT IN THE AREA TO PROVE HIS SPECIAL LEADER CREDENTIALS.
  
  AND TO THOSE YOUTH AND YOUNG PEOPLE KILLING THEMSELVES FOR NANA ADDO TO BECOME PRESIDENT - YOU DO NOT KNOW THESE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE MAN IS NOT EVEN PRESIDENT YET, HAVE YOU SEEN HIS CONVOYS? DO YOU KNOW THE COST OF THE HOTEL ROOMS HE PREFERS TO STAY IN WHENEVER HE VISITS LONDON, NEW YORK, AMSTERDAM, ETC??? HAVE YOU SEEN HOW HIS BODY GUARDS BEAT UP RAWLINGS AND ATTA MILLS AIDES TO A PULP IN NANA ADDO'S PRESENCE AT DIFFERENT OCCASIONS IN KUMASI AND IN THE CENTRAL REGION, WHEN NPP WAS IN POWER IN 2008? YOU ARE JUST KILLING YOURSELF FOR HIM AND HIS SELF-ACCLAIMED "ELITE AND SPECIAL GHANAIANS" FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO COME AND AMASS GHANA WEALTH AND SET UP THEIR CHILDREN'S CHILDREN CHILDREN'S FOR THE LIFESTYLES THEY BELIEVE IS THEIR "BIRTH RIGHT IN THIS WORLD". AND YOU SHEDDING YOUR BLOOD, YOU WONT EVEN GET 100 GHANA CEDIS OVER HIS "3" TERMS. YES, THIS NANA ADDO MAN AND HIS FORKED-TONGUE BOOT-LICKERS WOULD CHANGE THE CONSTITUTION OF GHANA TO ALLOW HIM TO RUN FOR A THIRD TERM AFTER RIGGING. YOU, YOU WOULD REMAIN AS POOR IF NOT POORER THAN BEFORE YOUR DEMI-GOD NANA ADDO BECAME PRESIDENT.
  
  NANA ADDO WHO CURRENTLY HAS MUCUS DRIPPING DISGUSTINGLY FROM HIS NOSE ON STAGE. IS THIS THE SUPERMAN SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT GHANA ON A WORLD STAGE WITH THAT HIS FAKE LOCALLY ACQUIRED FOREIGN ACCENT???? DOES NANA ADDO LOOK LIKE A MAN WHO LIKES HARD WORK, OR CAN DO THE WORK OF GHANA PRESIDENT? - IN ONE WEEK, FROM CABINET MEETING, TO UN CONFERENCE, TO AU CONFERENCE, TO CENTRAL REGION, TO ASHANTI REGION, TO MEETING WITH AUSTRALIA PRESIDENT, ETC ETC. HE CANT DO THE WORK, ITS HIS FAMILY MEMBERS "I USED MY FATHERS CREDENTIALS FOR LAW SCHOOL" NANA ASANTE BEDIATUO, "RECENT LONDON RASTAMAN/ DJ AND GRADUATE" GABBY OTCHERE-DARKO, "SSNIT OBOTAN" KEN OFORI-ATTA, "I AM TOO GOOD TO DATE A BLACK MAN" NANA YAA OFORI-ATTA, AND OTHER FORMER TORONTO TAXI-DRIVER RETURNEE FAMILY MEMBERS, ETC ETC ETC WHO WOULD BE PERFORMING THE PRESIDENTIAL DUTIES (ALL HOLDING BLUE POLYTHENE BAGS FOR MONEY COLLECTIONS), WHILES THE PRESIDENT HIMSELF IS LIVING LARGE AT PEDUASE LODGE. HAVE YOU SEEN HOW HE IS PUSHING ASIDE LONG-SERVING NPP MEMBERS FOR HIS SOCIAL FRIEND, CPP MAN FREDDY BLAY TO COME AND CHOP CHAIRMAN. IF HE EVER BECOMES PRESIDENT, YOU PEOPLE THAT CAMPAIGNED FOR HIM WOULD NOT GET SQUAT, NANA ADDO AND HIS KITCHEN CABINET WOULD GO AND BRING THEIR FRIENDS, BRITISH CITIZENS WITH GHANAIAN BACKGROUND WHO HAVE NOT STEPPED IN GHANA FOR FIFTY YEARS TO COME AND CHOP MINISTER, GOVERNOR, AMBASSADOR, ETC.
  
  YOU DON'T KNOW THESE PEOPLE WHO (ACCORDING TO NANA BEDIATUO ON ONE DSTV SHOW) ARE THE AMERICAN KENNEDY FAMILY OF GHANA WITH THEIR SO-CALLED HOLLYWOOD WIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  We've not finished with the president yet. We're going to give him another 4 year term to give him more time just like we did for k4. So Nana can wait, that's if he can

  Let him enjoy his Kepinski hotel and all his wealth. In the end, he could not stop his brother from killing Chairman Mahama. No one cares of his business success. What we care about is removing traitors like him from the party to bring peace. We are glad he is gone for good. Good bye Afoko.

  Mavis,I don't really get your message! .What do you mean by Akuffo Addo's "multicolored" CV?.I hope it's not to say that he has a beautiful CV!.A beautiful CV is also called a "Pink CV.
  Akuffo Addo has neither a beautiful nor a "PINK CV.Why,because he was at Oxford,no matter what the duration,whether one or two weeks .There are some who have been in Oxford for just two to four weeks for certificate courses but have it on their CV's.So why is his conspicuously missing on his CV,that he is refusing to explain to the world? .
  I also do not understand why you should call Tsikata the "fui".At least he studied law in Oxford,finished studying law at the age or 19,has his educational certificates,attended law school,had professors & classmates that he can easily & readily refer to or mention.He has also defended himself against Akuffo Addo as an attorney general!.So why are you referring to him as "fui" ?.Your article is shrouded in "something"! Or just displaying a PhD? .

  Have you noticed tranquillity return to NPP? The moles from the NDC camp have been found out and dealt with and peace has now been restored. It is a fine illustration of how Akufo-Addo can be trusted to lay down the law and remove any trouble makers as well as corrupt officials. Give him half the chance and he will throw Mahama and his corrupt ministers in jail!

  Ghana is at a crossroad where Nana Addo is the only choice Ghanaians have for a better president. we will have to try him on our way forward. We can continue fixing square pegs in round holes just to satisfy some few corrupt people. Rest assured, you will see some difference when Nana Addo comes.

  Master your question "Can Nana Akufo- Addo be s sincere and an honest President of Ghana?", is irrelevant.
  At the moment the realistic choice of who may become the President of Ghana come November is between the incumbent Mr Mahama and Nana. So your question is irrelevant because Mr Mahama is not sincere. If we had a possible sincere person competing in November, then your question would have been relevant. Or unless we start looking at the other Presidential candidates. I am afraid none of them have a chance of winning. I am just being realistic.

  Mavis, you may be a PhD holder but I am sorry for the shoddy work you did with your analysis of Nana's behavior. You do not have to love Nana Akufo Addo but you do not also have to be shoddy and expose your limited knowledge of human behavior to the public. Let me be specific.
  From reading your analysis above, it becomes clear one of your main reasons for portraying Nana Akufo Addo as an untrustworthy person is because he has sat at several meetings with ex Chairman Afoko and yet he made a statement that "I don't know Paul Afoko" - Nana Akufo-Addo.
  You further wrote "This is a Man; Nana Akufo-Addo has sat next to in Tens of Steering Committee meetings, innumerable NEC meetings, several National Council Meetings, and multitudinous private meetings often held at the precinct of Madam Ama Busia and Felix Owusu Agyapong".
  Mavis, my question to you is; is it strange for one to distrust even his wife or her husband whom he/she has cohabited for more that a decade. Do you fully trust your husband or boyfriend? If you answer in the positive to the above questions then I will say wait and one day you will recall this note I am writing to you today.
  To me, it is not strange for Nana to say what you wrote here. In fact, I find his statement to be an honest admission of the truth from a right thinking person. One must be an honest person to admit to this in public. Remember also that politics is a game where people fake their ways into positions of power. Afoko is not a saint and neither is Nana so I will not judge a politician who admits he does not trust his fellow politician. In the same way I will not condemn a woman who admits she does not trust her husband for ten or more years. You may believe in the infallibility of the human nature but I want to make you aware that even in marriage where 2 people meet to create a home and live for the rest of their lives, husbands and wives do not always trust each other. If trust is a problem in a marriage then I can assure you it is a bigger problem in politics so you must not judge Nana Akuffo by his admission that he does not know Afoko. Please think about what you wrote here to see if you are not doing so because of a grudge you bear for Nana. Do not blame me for judging you, for your shoddy analysis of Nana's behavior has created a situation where many readers will be compelled to be distrustful of the real motive behind your piece.
  
  Think About the above

  For a president to sincere and honest,he should always allow the lows or rules of the country or his party to operate without interference. No body should be seen by him to be above the law and that is exactly what Nana exhibited. However if you think only these qualities are needed in a person to a president I don't Rawlings practically had either.He had them only on his lips. e.g He killed some people just because they were fat.But now he fatter than some of them.
