  Kuffuor knows he is responsible for the return of NDc as he dismantled the grassroots machinery of the party just because he wanted to secure Manhyia dominance over all Akans . The result like a lion whose teeth have been pulled made the Npp very ineffective , distrusted among the Fanti speaking Akans and the Twi speakers especially in the Brong Ahafo region . He succeeded in totally alienating the allies of the Fantis such as the Gas and Krobos. Now he sees the true opposition is no longer in the NPP but now freelancing and waiting for political violence escalating into war that NDC intends for us. He continued the corruption of friends family of his clandestine allies JJ/Mahama and now know we the third force will eventually gain power and punish him. Today we notice NDC campaigners now supporting NPP like Sekou Nkrumah under the pretext of anti corruption and incompetence but where we they even last year when most atrocities were being committed.Yes we grow stronger and this year is the year we will boot out all these useless greedy bastards and criminals in rivers of blood. You Kuffuor like your NDC were never loyal to the Akans or Ghanians for that matter. It is not dumsor that will defeat NDC rather the fact that that they are all empty shells with no common sense talk less any empathy for the misery of the people. Since the days of Solomon the qualities of successful leadership are well known. The Romans refined this and had an empire that lasted over a 1000 years and the elements are as follows . A great leader needs be among the top 5 % in wisdom that stems from almost divine perceptive justice , an expect in economics or today's macro economics , a general well versed in strategy and the art of war hence the title commander in chief , genuinely concerned for the welfare of the citizens hence the patriotism that stems from the loyalty to the majority of his subjects not the other way round as we see today etc. Pepeni/ayigbe idiots have no loyalty or love for no one except their own selfish tribalism/hegemony and thats why NDC will always fail as all they can promote is exploitation through corruption. If you cant even fix in peace time dumsor what will happen if there is an uprising or revolution involving millions . Their corrupt ministers are resigning because they need time to properly stash away their loot before the war starts. Donkor was one of the most corrupt and ashawo Dzifa after the port expansion deals and a few other things is one of the most richest women in Africa today. This selfish greedy corrupt minister is only a symptom of this criminal mafia full of anti Akan prejudice and hate. We pointed out last year that all their projects were burdened or tainted by immoral corrupt selfish greedy appetites of the ndc and the kleptomaniac brothers of pepeni omanhene. If these projects ever make it to parliament or the president they are normally half baked very flawed or contaminated as the monies that should have been invested in the project development were spent buying favor or bribing ndc foot-soldiers , bureaucrats , technocrats etc into compliance. Now pepeni realizes he has less than 2 months to actual start something spectacular that if it doesn't win him the elections at least secure him a sizable strong opposition. If there in no success story then NDC will be rejected en mass by the people and fall to 10% of support which will mean that party will never again be entrusted with the helm of government. Most ministers will end up in jail or exiled if there is a peaceful transition , if they cause war almost all of them and their families will die horrible deaths in the imminent cutlass revolution .

  It is unlikely. Because the pastors are also corrupt.

  Corruption is a belief trap and no amount of prayer, legislation or capital punishment can stop.
  Corruption need to be tackled from the root causes which are beliefs.

  Man of God, if l may ask, since when did you start preaching to your congregation about corruption, you were busy attacking the government on corruption,whereas you know full well that it is a share responsibility of all Ghanaian. When a whole pastor was caught stealing electricity cables and sold them his neighbours, collecting money as if he is in charge of EGG Company.
  
  Where were you? And now you have the guts to say to church lets fight corruption.
  
  If Ghana succeeded we are all succeeded, and it fails we are all doomed not only the and his family, all of us.Therefore you better start educating you congregation to moral consciousnes

  how can the church collecting money day-in and day-out from its members, so that the so called men of God can ride in posh cars " lead fight against corruption"
  i believe, our churches and their priests are the CORNERSTONE of corruption.
  we are a nation of believers. we spend more time worshipping than any well to do european nation.
  worshipping cost money and the church will do anything to milk its members of their hard earned money.
  therefore, they have to turn to other method( corruption) to live up to the expectation of their congregation.

  As a Presbyterian and transparent Ghanaian citizen it makes me sick when our moderator always talks about corruption and exploitation of politicians and common ordinary Ghanaian people without mentioning the exploitation and corruptions of the new pastors, so-called prophets and revenuers who are taking money from the most vulnerable and poor peoples in our society. As proverb-mongers say " Clean your house before you ask others to clean their house. If you want to be a politician resign as our moderator and join your so-called honest party and go to parliament to weed out your enemies. Why didn't you criticize the NPP when they sold our national assets such as Ghana airways airliners, Ghana telecommunications and shared the money among themselves before leaving office. Also they left Ghana roads, streets and fly-overs dusty and uncompleted despite the Chinese loan. Please talk like Rev. Opuni-Frimpong and stop political debate as a revenue.

  The church has failed because the church itself is corrupt. The church is where people's wives are snatched, the church love the rich and ignores the poor, the church worships money bags, the church has failed in its the moral duties.
  
  How come so many who profess to be Christians are engaged in corruption? Is that not a failure of the church?
