Mr. Mahama and the NDC are not interested in priorities that would ease the suffering of Ghanaians; they are interested in prestigious signature projects for the enjoyment of few ruling elites in order to deceive gullible voters, regardless of whether the inflated projects are priorities and value for money or not. Does the NDC government think, despite the massive corruption, they can borrow recklessly and spend their way foolishly into another mandate in 2016, when the nation is over burdened with HIPC and workers wallowing in hunger and over taxed?
Governance under the NDC government is about deceit and 'opium of the people'; they enjoy everything here on earth but ask us to wait for our basic needs in heaven. And as they ask us to tighten our belts for future betterment, they've already loosened theirs for immediate consumption. They didn't even respect our intelligence when they asked us to wait for a paradise in three more years. The truth is that, everything they promise is a mirage and we will never find comfort under them because; they are con-men with con plans.

You seem to be repeating what Rawlings and his misguided, inexperienced "let the blood flow" chanting youth said years ago. They claimed our older leaders had failed and they violently took over the country in the 80s and mismanaged it for 20years. The result was a Cuban-style communist dictatorship, economic mismanagement, Rawlings' chain" and abject poverty.

The so-called revolutionaries, who were wearing car tire sandals and condemned market women to death for petty profiteering, are now billionaires and cut-throat capitalists enjoying money and power fraudulently. Throughout the period when Ghana was appropriately nicknamed "ojah krom", they perpetuated their rule through the gun, fear and electoral malpractices. Unfortunately, they are the same group overseeing the sinking of this country today, and they will do everything to rig the elections as usual to continue their mediocre rule, despite the fact that Ghanaians want them out.

You can not sell or market a non performing govt . Lie and steal as much as you want ut the people of Ghana are sophisticated enough to determine the truth and not fall for propaganda lies. The facts speak for themselves , for example before NDC took over we had the rating of a an A- or AAB with a tendency to a A+ of AAA rating , today we are a C- heading for a D due to reckless borrowing , gross mismanagement and institutionalized corruption which has stopped all investments even from our own Akan dominated diaspora. The fact is our economy is in shambles and our rating in the toilet, not suprising as our leading is nothing but a toilet carrier's son like most of his pepeni appointees .This Boko harem fake ass govt has not even read the bible to notice that it says even the ''woe unto any nation which allows its slave to rule '' which means intoday's language that any nation that allows the incompetent to rule will most surely suffer. History has proven this , the Mayan civilization fell in a matter of months just because of a coup or uprising whereby the people killed their leaders and ate their brains thinking that the way to get compentence. Here in in Ghana we have the various Ewes and their coups supported by the pepeni murdering their masters like Atta Mills was . We have 2 major parties which both lack any form of ideology or ideologist , Kuffuor eliminated Prof Eduboahen and his Fant thinkers from his Legon days, NDc murdered Atta Mills the only true patriot ideologist the end result being there is no cohesive thinking except the various tribalism / envious anti Akan leanings of the northerners and the voltarians. Yes we shall bring them down by exposing them for what they really are . This hopeless fools deep down hope for an authoritarian dictatorship as it only in these systems of governance that soldiers and police directly control the affairs of governance at the expense of the people . Democracy or plurality of thought is considered a threat and atrocities against humanity their every thrill. The institutions of state are so weakened by the corruption that things are falling apart right in front of our eyes and we see disaster after disaster occurring.Dumsor,flooding, and bankruptcy around the corner and yet they still instead of resigning are hoping for another term. Ministers(Avoka)are so incompetent that one minister had his son go for army training as all they know is how to chop Ghana's money,none know how to make it.Kuffuor sold our gold field so the tens of billions that leave the country every year is not invested in the economy and this govt can not not create a law that will force them to keep the money here or tax them 90% of the profits as they do not know the wealth of the nation must belong to the people of the nation . Rather they fantasize of laws just to limit the freedoms of the people and cause more hardship.We Akans must remain steadfast and make sure we exit this nightmare of a mess called Ghana unified for the future our children as this can never be repaired or fixed

Is there any government in the history of Ghana who has not given Eastern or any other region, development?
We should go to the 1992 Constitution (Principles of State Policy. It is there in black and white. Every government is enjoined to give development to every region so it is not a favour done any region if NDC government provide development to the Eastern region.
If this what the NDC will anchor their campaign, they have failed from the word ''go''.
The funds used for development is not coming from anybody's pocket.Campaign in the advanced economies is not based on provision of development projects but Ghana relies so much on this as campaign message.
We shall break away from this from 2016 and there is good reason for that.

NDC must be talking about " agenda rig to steal " We know you all have PhDs in political thievery. Even when you're caught, the likes of Atuguba will bail you out for a fee with no shame.
