I speak my mind on the UK Branch elections and branch elections committee

Nppflag2 The author is concerned about internal conflicts within the UK branch of the NPP

Nothing they say is permanent in this wicked world. Not even our troubles.

There are some concerns I would like to make: as well as some questions that I want the appropriate quarters to clarify them to me as a proud member of the elephant fraternity.

I would be very grateful if the BEC or any concern body could explain vividly to me the salient reason for the *disqualification/disallowing SAM KWESI ANDOH* from contesting for the 2nd vice position?

I posted some of our grievances on this same platform, and someone responded that I should allow the good people of this Branch to use the law.

I hope none of our members is ‘bad’ though? I just don’t understand why we are doing this to our own selves. I am not sure NPP UK branch(registered members) are up to or more than 2000. So how come we can’t solve simple issues within ourselves amicably?

It’s not easy for someone to devote his/her time to do party stuffs in this country. For that, there should be great respect to any one seen as such.

Why do we preach virtue and practice vice?

Just for electing our own leaders that we aren’t numerous, l personally have had, not less than 4 calls from aspirants offering me money to do certain things I deem not appropriate.

Instead of us to look for potentials, look at what we are sowing. And some one will just conclude that NPP is law abiding party. It’s same thing we do and *‘yaanom’* always take advantage of it to win elections.

When they are busy strategising, picking ballot boxes and fighting their opponents, we will be indoors fighting ourselves and writing big grammars.

I know this is all because of money, power, ego and pride. NPP UK is not for friends and classmates. This whole issues are gradually segregating our membership, if you care to know.

*Obiaa boga b3ba, obiaa time b3so.* I know right after this, some will obscure somewhere, to altercate me. They might even suggest to expunge me from the various platforms but hey! I will forever remain a son of the elephant and always speak the truth *( that should be our hallmark)*

Position for just under 2000 people, we are ‘stabbing, killing people's initiative to serve, tarnishing images, and defaming others - because of selfish interests of some few ‘wrong’ nuts.

Just don’t forget that, when God selects you, it doesn’t matter who neglects or rejects you. Why, why is the BEC trying to create unopposed candidate and why not any other positions?

Now the Bible tells us that; let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

It continues to say ; let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamour and evil speaking be put away from you with all malice. And ye be kind to one another. *(Ephesians 4:29-32).*

Why do we love some and hate others amongst ourselves? If we cannot not be truthful and faithful to less than 2000 people how much more 25million?

Let's arise and put an end to this negative culture of ours.

Go back to the drawing board *(BEC/CoE)* and settle all issues amicably.

I am a humble son of the elephant. I stand for corrections, explanations and answers.

Long live NPP, long live Ghana
