  Dear Africanus, stop this hatred and tell the truth. To say that NDC terminated NPP folks's job as soon as it came to power in 2009 is a BIG LIE!!! Everyone is aware of what happened. Even npp M/EXEs and Directors were allowed by Prez Mills to stay in office for more than 3MONTHS!!! This is unheard of!!! That was the period those M/EXEs covered their misdeeds ,their loot and share documents disappeared. But you, the so called ' objective person' wouldn't want to mention that.

  The people of NDC are incapable of right or wrong, know about ideas and ideals and damn not know about the welfare of the collective society. Those character traits led them to the looting brigade status that cost them the 2016 elections.
  The NPP folks are the very worst of a collection of presumed intellectuals possible because their ideas and ideals run counter to the essence of education or presumed intellect. You cannot have a party that believe in a political ideolgy that is foreign to Ghanaian cultural practices except for human greed, and hold it up as ideal while failing to strengthen institutions that would make the foreign concept of democracy work for Ghana. In either case, the NPP and NDC are not about incorporating good ideas and ideals from foreign political systems with acceptable Ghanaian values to create a Ghanaian system of governance. No both the NPP and NDC do not want anything good to come from Ghana's political system that will threaten their elite lifestyle. Who said the current economic structure of most democratic nations ought to be the same for Ghana? From the Americas through Brazil to UK and beyond democratic practices involved slavery of workers that helped create the wealth of the elite classes to keep labour in check, depress wages and create artificial unemployment numbers to ensure there's never a shortage of labour that would force the cost of labour to rise. Who in Ghana is so unworthy of so called freedoms that ought to be relegated to slavery status? We could not have had an NPP party full of lawyers to the wazoo pay to hire English lawyers to represent Ghana in arbitration cases in the UK while the party troop out NPP lawyers across the globe to render legal opinions on decisions by Mahama administrations like they know. Should all those NPP lawyers not play on court stages instead of charming the easily impressed Ghanaian public?
  We could not have had an NDC which pretend to know a thing about socialism while their infamous founder think socialist ideals are what he says it is including taking bribes from corrupt leaders from neighboring nations.
  The CPP of today is not a party but a social club where nostalgic wannabe go to yip yap without a clue what they want or can do for the nation.

  YOUR: "...The CPP of today is not a party but a social club where nostalgic wannabe go to yip yap without a clue what they want or can do for the nation...".
  
  WE SAY: Till today, we cannot figure out what exactly the CPP (and the other parties, the PPP included), stood for.
  
  We've had a chance to look at the numbers from the last elections. Our sense is, practically every independent candidate did better than every CPP candidate in every constituency. The only difference was at: Jomoro
  Samia Yaba Christina Nkrumah 9714 20.52% (CPP), where the NPP candidate won with just 39.49% (Nana Akufo-Addo got 48.08%).
  
  Most likely, Jomoro was the most hotly contested race, with 7 candidates, and more closer margins.
  
  THE MESSAGE: Samia Yaba Christina Nkrumah, the MP the last but one elections, with 9714 (20.52%) this time, did more than 3 times better than the PPP candidate.
  
  But, when Samia Yaba Christina Nkrumah was the sitting MP, the only CPP sitting MP in Parliament in fact, Nduom of the then CPP did not support Samia Yaba Christina Nkrumah.
  
  But, that to us is the only route to power, for the CPP, or any other party at this time --- from the bottom-up, intensely, one constituency to another. They could all use the "social club" to good use, village-to-village, unless they get a crook to fund their "party".
  
  Peace!

  These NPP people think everybody needs a job in government. We should leave them to field their old and tired people as ministers, etc. Let them prove that they can make real change happen.
