Former president, Kufuor, has said that he was, as he put it, "knocked down by short illness." Well, lets believe it and wish him well and hope his illness will not continue to the 7th January, to enable him to attend president Mahama's inauguration. If the illness continues and prevents him from attending, well, we leave that to posterity. All we shall be doing is keep praying for him to get well.

Fellow Ghanaians, let us analyze the performance of the two main political parties in this country. NDC’s philosophy is “dzie wo fie asem”. In opposition they allowed the Kufuor regime to mind its own business. As a result the NPP looted the Ghana government for eight good years. The fat cats looted the economy from cash (Kwadwo Mpiani), bungalow (Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey), cooking pots (Sekyi-Hughes) etc…..70% of the richest people in Ghana are NPP apparachicks. In the case of NPP, they believe they know better than anybody else and they are the only people who have the divine right to rule Ghana thus they oppose everything NDC does if it is not from the NPP, whether good or bad, from, Chinese loans, judgment debts, appointments and even the inauguration of President Mahama. This enabled the NDC to always be on their toes in whatever they do. From this observation, you can all agree with me that the NPP are better in opposition than NDC. Fellow Ghanaians, let us ensure that NPP remains in opposition for thirty years. After that time NDC will improve everything and NPP will come back and rule Ghana till thy kingdom come.

We accept the president's explanation and wish him well. Let us all hope this illness does not return or bar him from attending the president's inauguration on Monday 7th January.

This is a lie. NPP supporters said they will throw one leg of shoe against him. We shall see is he will attend the 7th January.

Kuffour should boycott the inaugural ceremony as well. It's not too late to do so.
His presence will be used as propaganda that the lame duck Mahama is legit.
He is recognized by only 11 governments throughout the world.

EVERY GHANAIAN KNOW THAT IS A LIAR WHO CORRUPTED THE NATION AND MADE HIS FAMILY AND CRONIES RICH.

THE SO-CALLED JUDGEMENT DEBTS WERE THE CREATION OF KUFFOUR WHICH WOYOME SMARTLY CAPITALIZED ON IT TO DEFRAUD THE NATION.

KUFFOUR ATTRIBUTES HIS ABSENCE FROM THE STATE OF THE NATION ADDRESS ON THE PREMISES OF ILLNESS. THE SIMPLE LOGICAL QUESTION IS, WHEN DID HE KNOW THAT HE WAS SICK? DID LIAR KUFFOUR INFORM THE HANDSOME PREZ MAHAMA THAT HE WAS SICK AND WOULD BE ABSENT?

ASHANTI-AKYEMS ARE GREAT LIARS AND PEOPLE OF GHANA DID THE RIGHT THING TO DENY THEM VICTORY.

I DON'T THINK PREZ. MAHAMA CARES SO MUCH ABOUT LOSERS LIKE KUFFOUR AND AKUFO ADDO AND THEIR BUNCH OF TRIBAL INWARD-LOOKING ASHANTI-AKYEM NPP MEMBERS WHO HAVE STUPIDLY DECIDED NOT TO ATTEND THE "CROWNING" THE HANDSOME PREZ. MAHAMA ON JANUARY 7.

THUMBS UP FOR PREZ. MAHAMA

Life is full of uncertainties such that it is always good for human beings to keep clean sheets. Kufour may be telling the truth about his health condition that prevented him for attending this ceremony but with the sustained negative posture of NPP many will not believe his story? I wish you good health anyway. NPP needs to work hard to minimise the negative perception that it is soaked in.

Hope death would not be upset for one of his children to be falsely accused. Like the fallen angel Lucifer, any human subterfuge and cheap excuses are blamed on him.When one fails to prosper, its the devil.This serpent of old can't win therefore he will forever remain a safe refuge for whoever choses to appeal to him.
It was only yesterday that I recommended a safe way out to our illustrous former president,a man I respect dearly,to consider this as a way out to ward off the anger of some of his party members, particularly the youth wing. I am glad he has heard me. Now he could stand on this to stride upon the stage for the inauguration. As it is, not even death can prevent him attending.

Mr former president,I hope you would recover before Monday and be present for the inauguration.Do not tarnish your hard won image with what Akufo Addo s doing.Posterity will not forgive you even after you are dead and gone.We all voted for the NPP but our votes were not enough to get the NPP to lead this country. Nothing, absolutely nothing should make you tarnish your image.If what you have said is true, then I personally wish you a fast and speedy recovery.

Is up to Kuffour where he belong as former president of Ghana, but he should stop this kinds of hyprocrate lies of short illness. Ghanaians are looking at them with so-called NPP.

How can the man be too sick to go and just sit and listen to a speech and yet strong and healthy enough to go on radio and talk? Interesting indeed.

There is every indication that the former president intentionally refused attendance because he stands to loose little or nothing at all. He is forced to be part of the inauguration on the 7th because there would be international dignitries and if he hopes to be engaged internationally in the near future,he has no option but to present himself.

I just hope Ex President Kufour will be well enough to attend President Mahama's searing in ceremony. Should I say Ex President Kufour is just avoiding all this because of the threats? God save us and our country Ghana.

WHAT'S UP WITH THE CONSTANT DISRESPECT OF THE FORMER "GENTLE GIANT" PREZ KUFUOR THESE DAYS?

So, Prez Kufuor CANNOT be sick?

Prez Kufuor cannot make up his own mind about attending a national event without being threatened?

Prez Kufuor cannot freely move about in a free country without threats of false imprisonment?

GHANAIANS, WHAT'S UP WITH OUR MORALS? THE BEHAVOIR OF THE YOUTHS IS BECOMING SIMPLY SHAMEFUL AND SOMEONE MUST TALK SOME WISDOM INTO THEIR THICK HEADS TO RETRACT SOME OF THEIR WORDS AND DEEDS!
