What point did he make here? Isn't Apraku a member of the NPP? So what's bound him not to campaign for himself? And also what he said was not insult to anyone so what's all this? If he was released from Kufour cabinet, did Kufour mention why or did he Apraku ever talked about it? Couldn't be maybe he saw something he didn't like and challenged his boss or question him about it been the reason but because he wants peace kept mute contrary to what the writer stipulated. One getting bumped or released from his or her post not necessary means he or her has done something wrong or was incompetent. So it is wrong for the writer supposedly being NPP supporter to use that to dis him and yet ya'll are calling for unity. Nana Addo maybe popular but have ya'll thought about all the allegations level against him and also his health because some Ghanaians are vowed not to make second mistake. I'm not anyhow predicting this honorable man's death but no one knew that Mils was going to. Because of intense pressure leading country called Ghana, some people who truely love Nana Addo will not encourage him to face it because he might not live up to his years that God has given him just like Mills. If he has any ideas to move this country forward, he doesn't have to sit on the seat before he can use it. NPP has vibrant people who stand a chance of winning general election too and after that he can share the ideas to move the company forward. All he has to do is endorse someone and use his image and the popularity everyone is talking of to help that person to win. Because he is incapable to do it, that's why he has being tagged "wanna be president by crook or hook". God bless us all...

..@@@..He who sows the wind, reaps the whirlwind and he who points fingers at another has the rest of the four pointing back to him.

Well, well, well, this is an ammunition for the NDC and it is sad most NPP leaders and supporters leave this baffon to continue to wreck havoc on them.

Your cousin made this same incompetent doctor his 2008 Campaign director and reading how you described the man's competence, it is not surprising most Ghanaians think Nana Addo will be a bad leader considering his poor judgment.

At least, Kufuor laid Apraku off without quarrel but your cousin could not understand how poor Apraku was and when he did, it was not without acrimony.

In fact, Apraku has a greater stalk in whether Patapa Nana Addo ever sit on the seat of government.

There's a saying that, when a crocodile returns from the bottom of the river to say the frog is dead, who are you to challenge him.

Nobody can hide the light and true destiny of the great nation of Akan. they use all kinds of schemes and tricks to undermine or deny a proper standard to us but we shall never surrender. we shall change and adapt as like the Israelis we are the chosen people of God and he in his great design has made us diverse but unified in spirit. the ashantis like the tribe of Judah are and will remain an integral part of our being to to attack any one part we all end up feeling it sooner or later. they have succeed in turning some of our chiefs and kings against us and work for their evil ungodly agenda but we still see clearly . God has brought us into the 21st century and with that a new system of governance and state of mind based on democracy since it is HE alone who blesses the individuals with the gift of leadership wisdom and justice irrespective of status at birth. he has shown us the blue print of the way forward in the bible and other holy books and the time has come to free ourselves from this man made bondage called Ghana. just as in the Ukraine we must fight so the truth will come out , fear not the battle as they will crumble like the walls of Jericho . cast away our so called fake leaders and politicians who are nothing but cowards and like our enemies fear even their own shadows . yes God has put a million fears in their empty bodies as he who does not fear the Lord , the Lord will ensure all fears of the world will reside in him. They threaten us with superstition , juju and what have you and we say fuck you and go to hell as the divine power is with us . Yes all the tribes of Akan are fingers on the same hands and God has ordained we remain united so our strength and light will be visible throughout the whole world and universe , our time has come . everyday its becoming clearer and clearer to all children of Akan that we must prepare mentally for a battle of freedom . they come with tricks that say we must take a non Akan as our leader because its nice ? do they not think that out of 30 million Akans we can not find sensible down to earth leaders and warriors to lead our own people to our own destiny? a govt of the people and by the people is what the 21st century democracy is all about . let them continue to play with the consensus and other figures that justify their fantasy and enable them to marginalize the participation of the Akan majority in the Affairs of their own land , to marginalize us thus preventing us to afford a better standard for our people . The had of God has given them pestilence after pestilence but they refuse to let our people go , soon they will be swept away like chaff in the hurricane of fury . Long live the republic of Akan and don't you forget it as now the Fanti speakers, Twi speakers, Ashantis and other tribes of Akan are now one .

WHY IS APRAKU NOT INTERESTED TO GO AND FARM.

THIS IS MAN WHO IS A HOLDER OF A DOCTORATE DEGREE IN AGRICULTURE, (AGRO-BUSINESS) FROM ONE OF THE UNIVERITIES IN OREGON, USA.

WHY IS HE ONLY INTERESTED IN FAKE POLITICS.HE IS ADVISED TO DO HIS BEST TO PUT THE VAST FERTILE LANDS IN OFFINSO AND VOLTA TO PROFITABLE FARMING CULTIVATION AND TO FEED THE GROWING POPULATION OF THESE STATES.

HAS HE STILL NOT LEARNT FROM HIS GRACE TO FALL WHEN KUFFOUR DISMISSED HIM AS MINISTER OF TRADE.

BEFORE HE MOUNTS THE PLATFORM TO CAMPAIGN FOR HIS PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION OF THR NPP, HE NEEDS TO CLEAR THE MINDS OF THE DOUBTING THOMASES IN HIS PARTY AND THE REST OF THE NATION, WHY HE WAS DISMISSED AS A CABINET MINISTER.

LASTLY, IT IS INDEED INTERESTING ZO SEE THESE TWO GENTELMEN OPPOSING EACH OTHER.

The best guy for the Osono Party is Nana Addo,and nobody else at the moment. Any mistake made to choose any other person, will land the NPP in perpetual opposition .Alan Cash, Apraku, Bawumia ,Frimpong-Boateng etc can not compete with Nana as at now. Nana Addo has been already marketed and the economic situation will boast his votes.

Kuffuor came to power thanks the disenchantment of Ghanaians with the metusela NDC regime of Rawlings and not for Kuffuor's charisma or diplomacy.And in a true democratic dispensation a twice-defeated presidential candidate will never dared presenting himself for any elections,and his rightful spot will be among the teeming supporters in the distanced bacground,and the won't be any cajolings,intimidations to foist Nana Addo on the NPP.NPP is forewarned,no supreme court's decision and verdict come 2016 for the defeating signs is already there for them to see.

Is he a professor, is he living in America? Folks after the second world war, Germany that was pivot of world war ever since has adopted conciliatory measures uniting all other European countries and US and merging East Germany and that is what has made them strong. Am just talking about about 60-70 YEARS AGO. That is what is expected of US as Ghanaians and Africa as a whole. But the dog eater(Okampa) is still talking about incidents 500-600 years ago of a way to divide and cause conflict. Then talking about Ewes having sieged mentality, folks let us examine this man as compared to an Ewe who is mentally sieged?

This man is really mad and has never ever researched on anything he has written here in the public domain!!
He is a complete dog eater with no brains left in his coconut!! Why??
He has THE MADNESS OF A MAN suffering from MEGALOMENIA sickness and he feels he knows it all!! Why is it that when a professor of African History writes about the disingenuity of the JB Dankwa man, a CIA local collaborator, he Okoampa is conspicuously mute and dumbfounded!!
But he lashes at other s with his inaccurate missiles of personal dressing!! Since when has he become a historian!! DOES HIS DRAMA STUDIES avail to him part of Pro Adu Boahen's truncated tribal glorification history?
Adu Boahen was challenged by Prof Agbodeka several times and the late knows his weaknesses in "glorifying" his tribe, even though there was no clear cut war between the Ewes and the Ashantis, let alone will there be any defeat!! Why this revisionism of our chattered history!! So why were the Ewes after being "defeated" not brought under the vassal states principles as those who after being defeated were made to be part of the federation!! Okoampa has a long way to go!!! Unfortunately he is yet to meet the Ewes of his calibre and then we will know whose the truth is ???????????/
Nonsense man!!
Let us assume that refugee of a man who disrespects anyone, Okoampa is the wisest Ghanaian Akyem dog eater, how many "unwise" Ewes or other tribes he looks down upon feed from his cooking pot in the slum of New York!! Those who are endowed academically or financially strong, like Bill Gates doesn't make noise!! For they know who they are already!! In this perspective, he does no good to his cousin he attempts to sip[port and cunningly does his writings to disfavour his counsin , Nana Addo Dankwa's ambitions into ice water. Mark it on the wall!!

Apraku is not a native of Offinso. He is the son of the first generation of the Ewes who settled in Offinso; and by our matrimonial system Apraku can never be an Ashanti nor a 'homeboy' of Kufuor.

Oh yeah, born and bred and continues to live in Ashanti but will never be an Ashanti? I am dismayed to learn that apparently tribalism is still a big deal in Ghana. Dr. Kwame Nkrumah worked tirelessly to avoid the use of tribalism as a political tool and achieved a measure of success in that area. What happened to the progress Ghana made then with tribal tolerance?
In any case, all the champions of Ghanaian tribalism should note that RACISM, ETHNOCENTRISM, TRIBALISM, AND SIMILAR OTHER SOCIAL GROUPINGS HAVE NOT HELPED MUCH ANY COUNTRY IN ITS QUEST FOR ADVANCEMENT. This is because emphasis on the use of these groupings rather ultimately contribute immensely to the downward spiral of a nation. History is replete with examples for Ghana. The notion of Ashanti superiority(or the superiority of any tribe for that matter)is destructive and should be condemned by all Ghanaians, especially those who count themselves as educated (I mean EUCATED, as in not only being able to read and write).

This article is unnecessary, so also is what Apraku is reported to have said. I will challenge Dr Apraku to tell us who the floating voters are and where they are so a united party effort will be made to reach out to them. If he knows md has not confer with the party executives to device a plan to reach them, then he Apraku has no business talking about it. Okuampa should listen tot and read again the admonishing in Akkufo-Addo's Easter message and tone Dow his rhetoric. This media wars only fuels the NDC to the detriment of NPP party unity.

You seem to be thinking that Akuffo Addo garnered those vote by himself. You are keen on questioning JAK's votes but you refused to realize that he JAK fought from opposition when Mills was a sitting VP and so in terms of popularity, JAK was not different from Mills right? On the other hand, Akuffo Addo in 2008, represented a sitting govt and therefore, benefitted votes from the popularity and performance of the govt and indeed for NPP to rule for 8 years, made the party strong on the ground during Akuffo Addo's time than it was in JAK's time.
The fact remains that people who are not full and recognized members of NPP will never vote for Akuffo Addo bcos of his diabolic and wicked intensions. If you take him for elections ten times, he will lose ten times. Even if he contests the national elections alone (unopposed), he will still not get the 50%+ 1 vote to win. He is too ugly.

The npp is not for Akyem people. What they have forgotten is that, they can not win power without the Ashanits, but this man continue to attack the Ashantis, whiles Akufo Addo looks on unconcerned. Why can´t we the Ashantis help the npp top lose the 2016 elections so we can kick his demi god Akufo Addo, out and restructure the party! Yesterday, one of his diehard supporters, Akomea, also made a reckless statement to the effect that, it is only Akufo Addo who can win electiosn for the npp. As if he has not been disgrace twice already. What is new about Akufo Addo that can attract voters to vote for him this time? The insults against the Ewes, the Gas, and the northerners and the tribal incitements? Until the npp call a spade by its real name, these Akyem dogs will continue to hijack the party and estroy it for good. So far, they have succeeded in doing it, by sacring away potential voters. No discerning Ghanaian is going to vote for a party such as this. Ever since Akufo Addo´s stooges were kicked out of their positions in Tamale, this mentally derailed Ahoofe can not sleep. What nonsense is this!
