  It is quite obvious that our greatest misfortune as a nation is that we have the Danquah/Busia tradition hanging around our neck like an albatross. The UP of the 1950s all the way to the NPP of today are the real bane of our politics and our socioeconomic development. I believe that Ghana would develop very quickly if we can do away with the NPP. As long as they exist in our political space, Ghana will never know peace. It is as simple as that.

  What do you expect when criminals hi-jack the state of government by installing and keeping a puppet, JD Mahama, in power? The question that begs a response is: how do we wrestle our country from these criminals and overthrow their tentacles that permeate every facet of Ghana's body politic?
  
  Using democracy as a subterfuge, Asiedu Nketiah, Koku Anyidoho and their criminal paymasters are not prepared to relinquish power without bloodshed, and those Ghanaians who live in fantasy believing the Dec. 7 elections would bring full closure to the democratic quandary in the nation, should begin to test the pulse of the governing NDC and its criminal gang spearheaded by the harbinger, Ms. Charllote Osei.
  
  The early days of Ghanaian patriotism and selflessness are no more. Today the average Ghanaian is perfidious, duplicitous and callous, to say the least. The Ghanaian has no sense to begin with, let alone common sense as issues of national interest are reduced to partisan idiosyncrasies depending on one's political leanings.
  
  Keeping JD Mahama in power will be an exercise in futility for those who want to see a better Ghana. Apart from being a blockhead, he is not sound in political ideologies if we prescribe political ideologies as a leader's call to action, or political and cultural blueprint for a certain social order. JD Mahama has none!!!
  
  Does JD Mahama practices conservatism, environmentalism, gender equality, liberalism, nationalism or socialism? Who is John Mahama and does political ideology matter? If the NDC claims to be a socialist party, is John Mahama fostering social ownership and democratic control of the means of production in the country? Isn't it an irony for a socialist party (President) to approach a capitalist institution (IMF) for economic restructure? Dating back to Breton Woods agreement, no socialist country has ever approached the IMF to boost its economy except Ghana. The same can be said about JJ Rawlings, John Atta Mills, and now John Mahama. Does political ideology matter in the leaders we elect as Presidents?
