It takes a man with the heart and mind of lucifer to wish Maama stays a day after 7th January 2017. It will take more than 'smart thieves' to steal the impending election, which you people are even not.

Your opinion on President Mahama shows you have been deceived by NPP vile propaganda. If the scale is taken off your eyes, you will realize that Mahama is the most illustrious president we have had in the 4th republic.
Just try and compare his 4 years with Kufuor's first 4 years and you will see how far ahead Mahama is. At the end of Kufuor's first 4 years, the notable achievements he could boast of were hipc toilets. Contrast that with Mahama's numerous roads, flyovers, schools, energy generating and gas plants, water projects, railway lines, waste recycling plants, airports, harbours, modern markets, retooling of the security services, rehabilitation of Adomi brodge, expansion of electricity to many communities, etc, all across the country - the gap is too much. Mahama has been carefully changing the face of the country. Look at how he has resolved the over 100 year problem of lavender hill in Accra. It takes a competent, visionary, wise, courageous leader to successfully mobilize funds to do all these in just 4 years. Another 4 years for him would mean Ghana is going to develop even faster. He is the right man for the job.

Hi Kee. You know the truth always hurts. take it or not . All that NPP is doing are VANITY. they should have praised Mahama for doing his best and beg Ghanaian to give then some little also to try. But denying all the good infrastructures MAHAMA is putting up to transform Ghana will go against NPP. The article put across is not foolish as you see it rather you are foolish to accept the true fact. VOTE FOR NDC AND BE HAPPY.

Please, Kufuor won the
Presidency on his SECOND ATTEMPT, in 1996 and 2000. He did go thru the THIRD TIME MANTRA. Atta Mills had to go the third time because he list in 2000 and thereafter had a sitting President to contend with! AkufomAddo lost in 2008 and has since had to contend with with a sitting President......that implies he may have to wait till 2020!

If your logic is anything to go by Goodluck Jonathan would have been in power by now. If Mahama killed Mills to have 3 terms then he is lying. John mahama is a thief,he back dated his pay to 2009 explaining he was working throughout because president Mills was sick,so he called himself a lucky person to have got the chance to rule so was asking for second term in 2012 so how did 2nd term in 2012 become still 2nd term ndc and criminal activities are bed fellows. Ndc has finished with the 2 terms and has mismanaged the country so has no chance anymore to be inpower.whether you jump or squat you will GO whether you eat fufu or akple or Tuo zaafi you will GO. The 39% that showed in the polls can't dictate to the more than 53% of voters who want change. Ndc is losing big time in the North come this 7th Dec. The Ghanaian people dislike the ndc,they see you as thieves, they see you as incompetent, they see you as liars, they see you as deceptive, they see you as violent, they see you as criminals and they see you as divisive. The 39% can come here and talk shit yet still it won't make any difference.

Whatever happened to being a proud and dignified Ghanaian? NPP and NDC politics have destroyed Ghana to a place where every lie has to be authored by a white man or foreign-sourced to be deemed worthy by the morons working for the NPP and NDC.
For the past one year the NPP has quoted worthless outfits in the USA or UK as source of either a poll predicting NPP win or damning report on the economic picture of Ghana; this week was the turn of a lecturer at Legon who has to be a whiteman of German heritage to predict same. What is the picture the NPP, a party of intellectuals, painting here?
Are we asleep in Ghana or gaining strength in number being stupid and unsure of ourselves or have we acquiesced to the notion of bring inferior to whites? It is not enough that Ghanaians and Ghanaians by parentage in the Diaspora author moronic articles driven by tribal preferences and hypocritical reasoning on Ghanaweb but Ghana is being bombarded by self-hating negroes with much negativety than anytime before. What is it about the Nana Akufo-Addo leadership of the NPP that has turned a party into shameless dweebs willing to say and do anything to get a win? Yes I am well aware that in politics winning is everything but so is selling your soul to the devil to get rich. In this year's election I would have loved for Nana Akufo-Addo who have lived his entire life in politics by fair or foul means to have run on his public achievements to contrast it with all the men before who occupied the office of Ghana's president; just let us know that given the ultimate power of the presidency he could do wonders not seen before. Instead this election, like all the others before, have turned into the promise campaign from the NPP and NDC. Why not promise Ghanaians we will not have to ever work again but expect government checks each month at our doorsteps for all the marbles?
Would it not be refreshing if Ghanaian pollsters would provide regional or district drawings with indicated sample distributions of citizens who reportedly took part in their delusional polling surveys? Choosing NDC or NPP strongholds for polling and extrapolating outcomes as reflective of region is not only stupid but regretfully unintelligent by political science departments at KNUST or Legon. Being lazy and unethical professors is one thing but dragging the name of your institution into the gutter shows contempt for Ghana.

Best article so far, the NPP has already sensed defeat and only using their only English word "rigging" as a cover up.
Defeat, they will taste for the 3rd time running.

So you think Nana Addo and the NPP might lose election 2016. You doubt the results of the polls conducted by the Unversity of Ghana because you believe your NDC is a much better alternative to the NPP and must be made to stay on. Wow!! You see my friend I do not know what you do but I am sure you are one of the Ghanaians who are very comfortable. You probably own a 4-wheel drive dashed you by Mahama and have a cushy job somewhere or with SADA or SUBAH or GYEEDA. You have free money coming your way every month, if not everyday. Why don't you take time to talk to people on the streets and find out why they want to rid themselves of vermin like your NDC and Mahama?

Since 1992, the NDC has been led by an Ewe from the Volta Region, a Fante from the Central Region and a Gonja from the Northern Region. But the NPP has never been led by a non-Akan, lending credence to the perception of the party as an Akan party. Some utterances by senior members of the party have not helped matters.

The NPP’s flag bearer Nana Akufo-Addo is on record to have referred to NPP supporters as “we Akans.” He was addressing party supporters. He has not admitted his fault and apologised for this but he has the audacity to say President Mahama is ethnocentric and divisive. This is the hypocrisy that is killing our country.

A leading member of parliament of the NPP, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, in 2012, incited violence against a number of minority ethnic groups and the party did not condemn him. An elder of the NPP, was secretly recorded at a Council of Elders meeting of the NPP questioning why people from parts of the country without resources were governing the country when the natural order of things should have been that those from places with natural resources should govern.

The NPP did not see anything wrong with this. Even within the NPP, there is a superiority contest and friction between the Asante and the Akyem.
