Apostles Of Impossibilities

Prof. Jane Naana Opoku Agyamang and John Dramani Mahama

 

Today, we pose one major question to the NDC and its leader, John Mahama.

And the question is: what is happening to the campaign of the NDC, its leader, John Mahama, Grandma Jane Naana and the other national leaders? These naysayers and their apostles of impossibilities have nothing to offer the country but out to confuse the people to return them to power.

Till date, John Mahama has not put a single policy intervention in place but the NDC thinks it is the best political party with the right policies to “reset” the country. John Mahama says the Akufo-Addo government has collapsed the economy, creating serious hardships for the ordinary people.

The NDC is like the pot calling the kettle black, and while during John Mahama’s tenure, the country experienced over four years of dumsor, cancellation of teachers’ and nurses’ training allowances as well as graduate unemployment, the NDC is always engaged in lies and smear campaigns to lead the people astray to give them power again.

Our only solution to settling the dilemma of “who is who” can be settled during the presidential debate that John Mahama and his NDC people are running away from.

The people of Ghana will have to insist on the debate to ensure that for once, the two political parties, can present best policy alternatives to the people.

If the NDC thinks it is ready to “reset” the nation and rescue the people from hardships, then, the people of Ghana are asking: how do they hope to ameliorate their sufferings beyond the mere rhetoric? Ghanaians are anxious to find quick fixes for their challenges, but the NDC alternative is still scary.

Again, the NDC naysayers believe in their undefined 24-hour economy which has become an euphemism for “prior to that”. The very far- reaching credit score policy that Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia intends to introduce if elected has confounded the naysayers beyond words.

These NDC elements and John Mahama are opposed to the credit score because they have assumed its literally meaning and are afraid that the credit score will score the NDC very low in the political space.

The next election is about our future, and that future lies in the change we want in continuity.

What a bunch of naysayers and cherishers of mischief!

Looking their container of past deeds, we are unable to resist posing questions about the stuff they are made of.

They even said former President Kufuor planned to move the capital from Accra to Kumasi as well as the sea to the Garden City. So intense was this propaganda involving leaders of the NDC to the extent that some persons masquerading as Ga youth went and seized a building allocated to former President Kufuor to use as his office.

That scheme was part of the grand design to paint former President Kufuor of grabbing state assets, whereas just a few metres away, the founder of the NDC had appropriated two bungalows as part of his ex gratia, but the Ga youth did not raise a finger. It is sad that sometimes the NDC wants to play the tribal card in our efforts to build a united and peaceful country.

This situation is not the best but the NDC thinks this tribal bigotry is the best way to divide and rule in order to gain access to state power again.

It is normally the Ashantis against the rest of the ethnic groups or creating a seeming tension between Ashantis and Akyems, two strongholds of the NPP, so that by so doing they will knock their heads together to divide the ranks of the Elephant Family.
