LET US CARRY NDC'S OWN SLOGAN WHICH THEY HAVE ABANDONED TO THEM!! _-------CARRY PROBITY, INTEGRITY, TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY TO THE NDC CRIMINALS WHO ARE RUNNING SCARED BECAUSE OF THE SQUANDERED $37 BILLION DOLLARS. MY CHILDREN WILL NEVER PAY!! WE MUST GET MAHAMA AND THE NDC THIEVES TO BRING IT. REMEMBER, THEY KILLED OTHERS FOR NOTHING AND STRIPPED OUR MUMS NAKED ON OUR STREETS FOR NO CRIME COMMITTED. I DOFF MY HAT FOR THE GENTLEMAN WHO ATTACKED WOYOME AT THE SHOPPING MALL TO RETRIEVE THE 52 MILLION GHC STOLEN BY NDC.

Not only this more victories ahead. Till we get the change we shall not rest.Mahama and his men are deceiving themselves. They will one day regret for their yentie obiaa policies because they wanted to enrich themselves. "LET'S TAKE LOANS AS MUCH US WE CAN GET, PUT HALF INTO OUR POCKETS SO THAT WE CAN CONTRIBUTE TO SUPPORT OUR ELECTION CAMPAIGNS. WE CAN TACKLE MANY PROJECTS TO ENABLE US WITH THE EXPLANATION THAT WE USED THE LOANS FOR PROJECTS IN THE COUNTRY" They still think they can deceive all the people all the time. All Mahama wants is to win elections whether the country goes into bankruptcy or not, it is not his concern, see how wicked! Should Ghanaians vote for them again, they shall eat their own shit! Nana Addo cannot be that wicked to pay people like Bature to insult the NPP leadership thinking it's a political gain. Nana Addo is the only one as at now, who can help Ghana from this mess. He will not use 1000 dollars to buy one bottle of water and come to boast " I bought water for you to drink, see oo I've done well" That is with Mahama. And ironically people like Bature will look for a platform to praise him.

(1) The Evil NDC was formed out of a COUP D'ETAT yet these people without conscience call innocent people VIOLENT.
(2) NDC introduced THE CRIMINAL LIABLE LAW to silent the press, NANA ADDO worked hard to repeal that OPRESSIVE LAW yet these NDC people without conscience call others LAWLESS.
(3) Three judges and a retired army officer were ABDUCTED, KILLED AND THEIR BODIES SET ON FIRE, yet these NDC people without conscience call others DANGEROUS.

HOW LONG WOULD NDC CONTINUE TO GIVE THEIR IMAGE TO OTHERS?

VIOLENT COUPS, LAWLESS THROWING OF SHIT-BOMBS IN PRESS HOUSES AND MURDERS. Why would NDC want others to carry their image? Are they now ashamed of these acts?

Congratulations. But we need to work on the low voter turnout (28.22%). Let's find out whether or not it was due to voter apathy.

It sure is voter apathy. What do you think 28.2% turnout means?. The NPP supporters have become disillusioned with Addo's patapaaa leadership.

God has cursed john mahama on Ghanaians. The evil that men do lives after them, john mahama like killing others but scared to die, he killed Atta mills to be president but was scared to stay at the castle because of uncle Atta's ghost. John Mahama will be fired come Nov7 he is incompetent and a thief and who in his right mind will allow a thief to govern him/her?. Ghana doesn't need a thief to be president, we need somebody who is incorruptible, somebody who is not a thief, a self made already person not somebody who is going to enrich himself and his family, we need somebody whose kids a adult not a father with a six months old baby , Ghana need's a man with a lovely and lively wife and only wife not somebodywith an afuom wife so go about chasing other women like a he goat and having babies here and there. John Mahama doesn't fit to be a president, he is a disgrace and shameful to Ghana. GHANA deserve BETTER.

The NDC did not contest the elections at Abuakwa North because they respect the memorial of J.B, if the NPP has won then is because the NDC do not contest.

Should the NDC contest the NPP will surely loose the seat. Come November 7th the seat will be claimed to the NDC.

As a sign of respect to the late MP, NDC pulled out, hence 74% of voters made up of NDC supporters did not vote.
NDC will take back the seat in November.

Very funy elections indeed,even the sort of parties that contested will tell you that Nana Addo_led Npp has used the other two contestants to only satisfy democratic demands and enstooled the woman,since that seat is a traditional stool. Very soon you will see the troubles in that constituency as the people have been denied of their choice which they can not cough because of Nana Addo invisible forces.It is a palace coup d'etate as there is trillion question mark pertaining to JB Danquah's gruesome murder.
