...... nppians is time you guys should SHUT-UP 4 Ghanaians 2 enjoy their PEACEFUL lifestyles...

Hmmmm!Sagacious!once thought me that "Politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed......Yes, politics IS war without bloodshed; and war is an extension of those politics.

We're all sick of foolish utterances of wars and bloodshed because politics is supposed to give us life and a better life and is supposed to bring out our best self. When it results in mass destruction and hatred and anxiety, it's the antithesis I think of what politics was designed to do....

food 4 thought....>>>In Italy, for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, they had 500 years of democracy and peace - and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (6 March 1475 – 18 February 1564), commonly known as Michelangelo (Italian pronunciation: [mike?land?elo]), was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, poet, and engineer of the High Renaissance who exerted an unparalleled influence on the development of Western art.[1] Despite making few forays beyond the arts, his versatility in the disciplines he took up was of such a high order that he is often considered a contender for the title of the archetypal Renaissance man, along with his fellow Italian Leonardo da Vinci.
Michelangelo was considered the greatest living artist in his lifetime, and ever since then he has been held to be one of the greatest artists of all time.[1] A number of his works in painting, sculpture, and architecture rank among the most famous in existence.[1] His output in every field during his long life was prodigious; when the sheer volume of correspondence, sketches, and reminiscences that survive is also taken into account, he is the best-documented artist of the 16th century.
Two of his best-known works, the Pietà and David, were sculpted before he turned thirty. Despite his low opinion of painting, Michelangelo also created two of the most influential works in fresco in the history of Western art: the scenes from Genesis on the ceiling and The Last Judgment on the altar wall of the Sistine Chapel in Rome. As an architect, Michelangelo pioneered the Mannerist style at the Laurentian Library. At 74 he succeeded Antonio da Sangallo the Younger as the architect of St. Peter's Basilica. Michelangelo transformed the plan, the western end being finished to Michelangelo's design, the dome being completed after his death with some modification.
In a demonstration of Michelangelo's unique standing, he was the first Western artist whose biography was published while he was alive.[2] Two biographies were published of him during his lifetime; one of them, by Giorgio Vasari, proposed that he was the pinnacle of all artistic achievement since the beginning of the Renaissance, a viewpoint that continued to have currency in art history for centuries.
In his lifetime he was also often called Il Divino ("the divine one").[3] One of the qualities most admired by his contemporaries was his terribilità, a sense of awe-inspiring grandeur, and it was the attempts of subsequent artists to imitate[4] Michelangelo's impassioned and highly personal style that resulted in Mannerism, the next major movement in Western art after the High Renaissance.

Jake is only following the blood-letting instincts of his father - who wickedly gave bouquet of flowers loaded with bombs - to inno.cent 6 year old girl child of OTHER GHANAIANS to commit suicide. Jake's father did this without remorse. It is the turn of Jake so he also incited Akans that it is their BIRTH RIGHT to rule Ghana.This is what incited Akufo Addo to proclaim Y3 AKANFUO, WIN AT ALL COST ELSE AFGHANISTAN, WOMAFUNU, KILL GAS AND EWES AND ULTIMATELY ALL DIE BE DIE. Why should Jake turn round to blame EC for any senseless all die be die, should it have happened? Jake, WHERE ARE YOUR CHILDREN? After you gave a prime land to the Mormons and they in turn gave scholarships to your children and those of other well placed elephants, can u tell us their whereabouts? And you want NPP hoolligans and babarians to slalughter innocent Ghanaians? God loves this country;He loves Ghanaians and He WILL NEVER ALLOW BLOOD THIRSTY ALL DIE BE DIE ROGUES TO DESTROY US.

REFERENCE RECOURSE:

THE EYE OF USA:
I am rich, the most powerful.Everybody look at me and I give attention to who I pity. My interest surpass everything on the earth.

AFRICAN EYE:
I have the major resources on earth, but I'm stupid enough to allow others to use me to enrich themselves for a little bit of myself. I look up to them and I wish I could be like them in my own pace.

EUROPEAN EYE:
I have no resources on my own, but I would use the foolish on earth to accomplish my plans and aspirations. It is not my fault for Africans to allow themselves for that matter. Well, I need these things, so I have use my ways and means to engineer my wishes.

ASIAN EYE:
I have come of age against bullying of the west. Now, I am on my own. I can stand on my two feet. If anything, I do not need USA, but I need the AFRICANS who has the resources cheap. I have to find a way to compete for their resources.

MIDDLE EAST:
Religion is where it is exact. We were raised and form under religions and it takes part of everything we do, including our government systems. Even, if it takes my blood, I will fight for that till the end of my existance.

SOUTH AMERICA:
I am coming up with my own. I don't care what anyone says. Cathechism is my joy and believes and soccer my entertainment ability.

THE BIGGEST SURPRISE TO MOST GHANAIAN IS THE FACT THAT THIS BOGUS PETITION DRAGGED ON FOR 8 MONTHS. THIS FICTITIOUS PETITION SHOULD HAVE BEEN THROWN OUT IN FIRST FEW WEEKS. THE NPP EXECUTIVES ARE STILL DECEIVING THE SUPPORTERS AND MEMBERS OF THE PARTY. THERE WERE NO LEGITIMATE BASES FOR THE PETITION, SO THEY SEIZED ON CLERICAL ERRORS ON THE FACE OF SOME PINK SHEETS AND THREW THE DICE IN THE HOPE THAT THE ASHANTI,AKYIM, KWAWU, BRONG AND AKWAPIM JUSTICES OF THE SUPREME COURT WHO WERE MOST APPOINTED BU THE KUFFOUR-LED NPP GOVERNMENT WOULD GIVE THEM THE PRESIDENCY

Immediately after the elections, in the Volta region was the death of NDC

Afari-Gyan's behaviour in managing and conducting elections so far shows that he lacks the required competence, uprightness and objectivity to continue supervising elections.
His so-called experience in conducting "free and fair" elections were all tainted with corrupt behaviour because they were all NOT SCRUTINISED as the 2012 elections were.
He has usurped the role of a kingmaker instead of a mere supervisor of supervising the process of king making. For a true an fair election for future years Ghana needs a widespread electoral and political reforms of which Afari-Dgyan SHOULD NOT BE INVOVED, otherwise the reform will be biased and tainted as well.

Npp wanted the election to be rigged in their favour but God is not a corrupt imposter like them. At which polling station of all the 26002 did an agent of NPP complain using the official channel and the EC refused to address their concern? None. Because the election was so transparent and the counting of ballot papers from the transparent boxes was done openly with their agents present at all times, the petitioners did not complain. If an agent ticks the names of voters as they go through the electoral process how could you claim over-voting? The petition was a waste of time because the last election was more transparent and credible than the two that brought J.A. Kuffour to power in 2000 and 2004. If it is a lie then let God punish those who are now lying to the world about 2012 election irregularities. Let Afari Gyan bring out all records and publish them for all to see - everything including pink sheets - from A-Z of all the elections up to 2012.

The wages of sin is death, because of
NDC illegal politicfal practices, thievery, deceit, dishonesty, lies, robbing and looting activities, violence, cheating and all form dangerous political activities, you monkey supporters does not want such to be placed in public domain, hence
death are going on in NDC so-called
political party.

The wages of sin is death, because of
NDC cheating of the majority people of this nation, what did we see since
the NDC claimed Mahama won the election, before then was Atta Mills,
one person died nine toumbs were dug,
after the elections immediately was
the death of one NDC big wig in the
Volta Region, today Prof. Awunoor
takes the lead, next is Asiedu-Nketia
and Dramani Mahama with evil Afari djan who had wanted Ghana to go bizare.

Since NDC did not do the right thing
during and after the elections, they
will be one by one called to go
and meet their creator.

Was it not pndc/ndc under rawlings which sold most of Ghana's assets to family and party members.
Surely when you have an EC commissioner who does not know what over voting is, says no verification no vote before election, allows voting without verification and then deny it took place during the petition, you are inviting war. I am not a great fun of the npp but an advocate for free and fair elections and I don't see how the EC can claim to share these sentiments when they blatantly cheat for one party.
Supporting your party blindly is not a trait that anyone should be proud of and before questioning the maturity of others make you have your thinking cup on.

The EC did not do anything wrong in the last election. What it did at 7th December 2012, which brought President Mahama to power, was exactly, what it did at the 2000 and 2008 elections which made Kufuor President. The sad thing about the 2012 election was that the losing Party (NPP)has been contentious because it could not take in the impact. Liked its forerunner the United Party(UP)in the 1950s and
60s, the NPP could not stomach losing. The Danquah/Busia tradition has been a bad loser, from day one. Those who saw what happened at the end of elections in the past, after the tradition's party had lost, were not surprised about the NPP demur this time around.

We’ve allowed partisan politics blinded us so much that we can’t differentiate between facts and lies.
This is common sense but I remember reading from one of the books that, “COMMON SENSE IS COMMON BUT IT’S NOT COMMON FOR EVERYONE” NPP leadership made it clear that they d strong evidence to overturn the elections the elections. The case was taken to court and the petition itself lacked merit.
How on earth can you tell me that after people queuing to cast their votes, if by someone’s negligence to sign the pink sheet, the valid votes should be annulled? This is lack of common sense.
Why should innocent people suffer for the mistakes of others?
The petitioners claimed votes were padded to Mahama’s votes while Nana Addo’s votes were reduced, were the petitioners able to prove this?
From what we all saw from the proceedings, there were under no circumstance where Mahama faulted.
How can you make claims you can’t substantiate? This is insane..
You NPP guys should be wild on your leadership for deceiving you..
What the NPP is refusing to accept is that “HOW CAN MAHAMA USE LESS THAN 5 MONTHS TO CAMPAIGN WHILE NANA USED OVER 4 YEARS TO CAMPAIGN YET HE LOST”

John Mahama and his government thinks EC is a political party they want to go to bed with.
John Mahama after hearing and listening the Petition by NPP leaders in the Supreme Court, nobody should be telling John Mahama to reform and sack some workers of our Electoral Comission.
Its a shame John Mahama is not acting like a President. If an institution in democracy is not working well, the whole democracy is not working well.
If Afari Gyan the chairman of our EC openly and proudly saying he had it wrong and cant correct it; what is John Mahama waiting for before he cant sack him.
If Afari Gyan could stop and correct the errors and rigging during 2012 elections, he would have done it. He couldnt stop the rigging.
John Mahama be our President and SACK the whole electoral comission and re-employ them thur vetting. There are dishonest worker in EC and we must get rid of them.
Long live NPP and long live our democracy.
Without the Petition useless Afari Gyan with double face would have been allow to chair our EC coming up to 2016.

To 'contest' the NPP flagbearer`s position,I believe he had little wiggle room than to nod when the highest court of the land spoke on August 29,2013.

But it remains to be seen if the likes of Asabee,Apraku,Anane,Oboshie Sai,Alan,Osafo Marfo et al,who harbour presidential ambitions of their own,will give him a free pass a third time!
Look,the drama we are witnessing about Akufo Addo going on a retreat to seek God`s guidance,Sir John and company orchestrating the trooping of delegations to Nima to heap 'praises' on Nana,and now the attempt to change the rules of the game to allow his imposition on the party for 2016,is not lost on anybody!

Just because Npp didn't win? You're rather could have caused bloodshed. Learn to accept defeat in good faith.

DEAR GOOD PEOPLE OF GHANA AND GOOD FRIENDS OF GHANA THROUGHOUT THE WORLD,

TO REGRETABBLY REFER TO THE COMMENTS MADE BY THE CHAIRMAN OF NPP JAKE OBETSIBI LAMPTEY EXPOSING THE HIDDEN AGENDA OF THE NPP. BUT THANK GOD THAT SOME OF US RETURNED TO GHANA AND WITH THE GOOD SENSE AND LOVE OF GHANAIANS AND GHANA FRIENDS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD THEIR HIDDEN INTENDED AGENDA WAS REVEALED AND THE SAME PEOPLE DESTROYED THE VIDEO IN MY FACEBOOK SITE.
THAT NOW IT IS THEREFORE NO SECRET THAT YOU REALLY TRAINED HOLDING MACHINE GUNS IN CAMLOUFLAGE MILITARY ATTIRE AND THE DECLARATION OF WAR AGAINST THE EWES AND GAS BY KENNEDY AGYAPONG THAT THE NPP NEVER CONDEMNED AND ALSO THE UTTERANCES OF THE NPP GENERAL GENERAL OWUSU AFRIYIE THAT LED TO THE SUPREME COURT CITING HIM FOR CONTEMPT AND ALSO FOUND HIM GUILTY OF CONTEMPT AND THE FLAGBEARER HIMSELF HOLDING MACHINE GUNS IN CAMLOUFLAGE MILITARY ATTIRE AND SWEARING TO A PISTOL IN A KENTE CLOTH ARE ALL PROVED THAT YOU REALLY PLANNED "EVIL".
HOWEVER, BECAUSE OF THE TENANCITY OF DETERMINATION BY GOVERNMENT OF GHANA AND THE STRONG SUPPORT FOR GHANA BY MY DEAR FRIEND AND CLOSE FRIEND OF GHANA H.EDR.MR.PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, H.E>RT>HON.PRIME MINISTER DAVID CAMERON AND ALL OUR GOOD FRIENDS
THROUGHOUT THE WORLD SUPPORT FOR GHANA AND BY THE HELP OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD PEACE PREVAIL IN GHANA>
THAT AS I HAVE SAID SEVERAL TIMES THAT ELECTIONS ARE WON AT THE BALLOT BOX AND NOT THROUGH MERE HYPOTHETICAL ANALYSIS OF CLERICAL ERRORS AS BASIS TO BE TESTED AT THE LAW COURT. SIMPLY BECAUSE WE HAVE THEORY OF LAWS ALREADY AND NOT MERE HYPOTHETICAL CASES.
THAT THE NPP LOST SIGHT OF THE FACT THAT THE ELECTORAL COMMISSION NEVER DETECTS TO VOTERS OF THE PATTERN TO VOTE AND FOR WHAT CANDIDATE TO VOTE FOR. BUT SIMPLY IT IS THE FREE WILL CHOICE OF THE VOTER FOR A CANDIDATE OF HIS/HER CHOICE.
THAT TO PURPORT TO SOLELY RELY ON MERE HYPOTHETICAL CLERICAL ERRORS OF WHICH THE NPP ITSELF MADE THE SAME CLERICAL ERRORS WAS A MERE ATTEMPT TO PURPORT TO PURCHASE A TILAPIA IN A CLOTHING SHOP< PERHAPS WITH THE MERE ELUSIVE MINDSET THAT SOME CLOTHING SELLER MIGHT MAKE ATTEMPT TO TRY THROUGH THE BACKDOOR OF HIS/HER SHOP TO GET A TILAPIA AT THE PLACE TILAPIA IS SOLD.
THAT THE NPP ITSELF IS/WAS AWARE THE CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER WHICH THE ELECTION OFFICIALS WORK AND FOR THE PARTY TO PURPORT EVEN IN THE PRESENCE OF THE NPP AGENTS, NPP MEMBERS, SECURITY PERSONNEL AND THE PUBLIC BEFORE THE VOTING WAS DONE, BALLOT PAPERS COUNTED AND THE RESULTS DECLARED TO HOLD CONTRARY TO CHALLENGE A GLARING DEFEAT AT THE POLLS OF THE RESULTS WAS THEREFORE BY THE REVELATION OF THE NPP CHAIRMAN AN ATTEMPT AND A HIDDEN AGENDA TO PLUNGE THE COUNTRY INTO CHAOS> BUT AGAIN THANK GOD THAT GOODWILL UNDERSTANDING AND THE PRAYERS OF GHANAIANS PREVAILED OVER "EVIL INTENTIONS".
THAT THE EC NEVER COMMITTED AN ACT OF WRONGDOING TO CALL SUCH UTTERANCES BY THE NPP CHAIRMAN.
THAT HISTORY ALSO HAS IT THAT IN 2008 THE NPP PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE NANA AKUFO ADDO WON TWO (2) REGIONS OUT OF TEN (10) REGIONS OF GHANA AND IN 2012 WON SAME TWO (2) REGIONS OUT OF TEN (10) REGIONS OF GHANA, WHAT THEN IS THE NPP LEGAL BASIS OF CLAIMED AND WHAT BASIS OF LEGAL CAUSE AFTER THE SUPREME COURT DECISION THAT THE MAJORITY DISMISSED THE PETITION?
FURTHER, THAT ONE OF THE LORD JUSTICES WHO EVEN HELD IN THE NPP FAVOUR IN THE PERSON OF HIS LORDSHIP JUSTICE ANSAH CLEARLY SAID THAT "THEY CANNOT ANNUL VOTES" THEREFORE< THE LEGAL ISSUE IS THE PETITIONERS CLAIM FOR RELIEF WAS TO ANNUL VOTES AND THE COURT HAS NO POWER OR AUTHORITY TO ANNUL VOTES THEN WHY THE SUPREME COURT ALLOWED THE PETITION ITSELF?
TO PURPORT THEREFORE TO NOW MAKING A CLAIM TO THE COUNCIL OF STATE THAT BEFORE THE APPOINTMENT OF SUBSEQUENT CHAIRMAN OF THE EC THEY SHOULD BE CONSULTED THAT DEMAND AMOUNTED TO WRESTLING CONSTITUTIONAL POWER AND AUTHORITY FROM THE PRESIDENT OF GHANA AND THE COUNCIL AND WOULD AMOUNT TO UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
THAT A WORD TO A WISE IS ENOUGH.
LET US ALL AS GHANAIANS TO LEARN TO IMBIBE THE CULTURE AND VALUES OF DEMOCRACY OF COURSE, JUST TO CITE "TOLERANCE AND ACCEPTANCE" TO LET H.E.PRESIDENT OF GHANA JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA, THE GOVERNMENT AND GHANA TO MOVE FORWARD IN PEACE AND DEVELOPMENT TO HELP PROMOTE THE QUALITY OF LIFE/LIVE OF THE PEOPLE WHICH IS THE "SINE QUA NON" AND ESSENCE OF POLITICS ITSELF.
GOD BLESS GHANA AND LONG LIVE GHANA!
VERY TRULY YOURS,

Listen to the fool, the irresponsible son of a bomb thrower spewing rubbish and thinking Ghanaians are so little minded as himself. Jake like his father, is nothing more than a war monger. Ghanaians think positively about their lives than Jake trying to use Kenya situation as a propaganda. Jake cannot fool Ghanaians and EC it is rather if anything, the violent and lawless and indiscipline individuals in NPP.
