They can go to hell and stay there
You are losing oooooh!!!!!!
Not civil servants, but taxi drivers? God gracious. How many Taxi drivers do Ghana has that it can influence the results of election? May NPP rest in peace.
Can you believe this stupid report by a stupid journalist,how can taxi drivers defect from NDC,do we have anything in NDC called taxi drivers as a group,is that a branch of the NDC?
a single vote can save ghana from the 'create loot and share' ndc.
Ogyimifoo. Every vote counts
Ghanaians need the buses more than the taxis. If the taxi drivers think they are loosing money then the should apply for a job as bus drivers.
A bunch of fools and idiots.
This sheer propaganda would not surface. It can not swayed and divert discerning minds like the NDC.
If indeed, these people who have defect are from the NDC, what are the prove of they being members of the NDC.
The N ...

Hahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa, I thought they defected from driving taxies to npp. Wonders will never end.
It is all propaganda. Two of them are close friends who , according to him organized that for cash. They all have ulterior motive for doing that
This story is a Kweku Ananse story, but assuming it is true, then these taxi drivers have no place in the people-centered NDC; they are angry because government has brought in buses that are charging low fares, how greedy can ...

This is no doubt good news for the NPP. This 125 taxi drives are all the people needed to secure the presidency for Akufo addo. Bravo NPP. You have arrived
Hmmm we thank God oo that the scales have finally fallen from their eyes! They are now seeing the reality live and coloured. Not black and white like b4.
Mr. Addo, please have you interviewed any of the 125 taxi drivers to establish the veracity of this story?. Please during this election period so many false stories will be posted on the internet. Do not be a victim and fall ...

It is a lie my dear worry not.
Dzimakpla...
The heading doesnt match the content; have they defected fromNDC to Nana Addo' NPP or Nana Konadu' NDP?
Fuel price hikes, introduction of commercial buses (which are charging lower fares) among reasons for defecting? Thank God, Akuffo Addo will turn all those situations around for them.
BAD WORK MAN ALWAYS BLAME HIS TOOLS.PRICE HIKE IS WORLD-WIDE.COMPETITION IS ABOUT FAIR PRICE IN COMMERCE AND JOB CREATION.LET AKUFO ADDO COME(GHANA FORBID)TO BAN COMMERCIAL BUSES.AND YOUR GUESS IS GOOD
Idiot,you Ewes have had enough of your share during JJs time.Idiot and mind you we the northers have nothing to loose if we all decides to vote for npp.At least Ashantis are good enough to have given us a place to stay in all ...

As an Akan we will kill all ayigbes and pepe people when the war begins. we are the best.
If you can fight, just face Bawku people and they will slaughter you one after the other. They are bloodthirsty and will spare anyone should the war begin. Foolish people!!
At first, I did want to comment on this issue. But, l have no option then to say something. Charity, l salute u!
Good decision!! I and my family will not vote NDC again, John Uhuru Mahama is evil, incompetent, a lier and a thief, change is coming!! Inshaalah NDC propaganda and deceit won't work this time around!!

Nonsense is this news
Poverty of journalism. Cooking unfit stories
Is this IMPORTANT!!!! So what if they defect?? Who cares. Please treat us with respect!!!! Yes there is No respect in Ghana anymore, everybody is thieving and lying.
Continue to fool yourself with these cooked stories. Ballots are secret and no one cares who defects
Ask these propagandists whether they know the difference in votes between the NDC and the NPP in Tamale South alone.crabs!
This picture is taken in Accra circle and not Tamale. so stop the propaganda and get your house in order if only you want to win the election. Deceit doesn't win elections npp elements.
Did npp make that news or a journalist? Ndc why this panic attack? If you think, you have the numbers why worry? Look, the akan regions don't vote for the ndc, hence anytime ndc win election they complain they didn't vote for ...

Kuffour won because Ghanaians were tried with the NDC then after nearly 20 years of PNDC/NDC government. President Kuffour's tone during campaign was also a factor, the unity in the Npp was maximum but today we have a privat ...

mmm tax drives in Tamale ? pls re-visit the truef of ur news
I'm happy they said the government introduced commercial buses and they charge low prices. The government is for the people not the individual.
A proper prove of defection is a membership card of the party you are defecting from...so do these taxi drivers produce their NDC membership cards, to prove that indeed they were NDC members who have decided to defect to npp?
The picture alone has no connection to the story.
Good news for the NPP. But what will happen if the NPP govt. decides to maintain or increase public transportation in the metropolis, will they defect to another party?
lolz
125 wow!!that's close to number of taxi drivers killed by npp in tamale.
The originator of this story is very stupid and lazy simple.
SO WHAT? WILL MAKE NO DIFFERENCE. DWARFY DOPE HEAD IS STILL GOING TO LOOSE THE ELECTIONS.
This is funny and I do not think npp want's to win elections in Ghana.
Ghanaweb shows the appalling level of journalism in Ghana, the heading and the story doesn't match. Did they join npp or ndp?
The reason for the defection makes no sense
Shallow reasoning
Ghanaweb you can do better than this.
I thought taxi drivers is a political party
THIS IS NO NEWS THEY ARE ONLY SYCHOPHANTS AND FANSTICS WHO ARE SWAYED BY THE LEAST WIND. CANT BE RELIED ON.
Thats Ghanaweb belongs to npp?be there and put the blame on npp,ndc is losing gradually and u the supporters cant see because u are blind as a bat,eshi rado rado
Ndc is dying slowly,thats wat we want
Every rational Ghanaian regrets (or should regret) the mere existence of the corrupt NDC
lol
NPP lacking campaign stra
Please NPP had no clue to help Ghana and will not win the election. NPP will decrease petrol prize if come to power.?? Fool North taxi drivers
True story. These taxi drivers first defected to Nana Konadu's NDP, and then found their way to Akufo-Addo's NPP. The NPP official pointed to his pocket and said, "I have a list of the names of the defecting taxi drivers here ...

Do they have proof of their political identity?
When will your reporters stop "Positing"?
Strange what dictionary they use.
Ewes or no ewes Nana is going to carry the trophy
So if Akufo Addo Dankwa and NPP come to rule the people of Ghana, their regime will ban big buses which charge low fares and promote Taxis to charge high fares? Eeeih! They always say that they speaking for the COMMON MAN IN ...

I see picture of taxi cars in Kwame Nkrumah circle not taxi drivers @ Tamale. Ghanaweb you can do better than this.
You're right adwenpa, the journalist cannot fool us with picture of taxis cars (around old kwame Nkrumah circle) for angry taxi drivers in Tamale.
