WE KNOW ONLY TWO NAMES, NANA ADDO & BAWUMIA. NANA'S LEADERSHIP WITH BAWUMIA IS EXCELLENT. NANA IS OUR POLITICAL MESSIAH!! WE WILL PATIENTLY WAIT FOR HIM TO COME AND LIBERATE US FROM OUR ECONOMIC OPPRESSORS.WE CAN'T PUT OUR TRUST IN THESE YOUNG NDC THIEVES (WITH NO WORK RECORD) WHO WANT TO LIVE LIKE KINGS OVERNIGHT, OWNING JETS, BIG MANSIONS, BANKS, ROLLS ROYCE, DATING MODELS ETC. AT THE EXPENSE OF THE POOR. BEING A PRESIDENT REQUIRES THE USE OF BRAIN NOT BRAWN. A PRESIDENT DOES NOT "THROW" PICK AXE!!! WHO CAN DO THE JOB BETTER THAN NANA, AT THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY, WHERE GREEDY CORRUPT , SHARP TEETH ROTTEN PLANK NDC SMALL BOYS, PARADING AS POLITICIANS, HAVE PLUNDERED OUR RESOURCES TO THE BONE, THAT OUR OIL ECONOMY INHERITED FROM THE GREAT KUFFOUR HAS HAD NO IMPACT ON THE LIVES OF THE ORDINARY CITIZENS OF OUR COUNTRY???? LONG LIVE GHANA!! LONG LIVE NANA ADDO. MORE GREASE TO YOUR ELBOWS!! EVERY THIEF IN GHANA, TODAY, IS SCARED OF BOLD AND MIGHTY NANA ADDO. NANA IS CLEAN !! CLEAN TO THE BONE!

Afari Gyan, Atuguba, IGP, were all bribed to help Mahama and NDC win the elections and there is no indication that it will not be repeated. If the Electoral Commission has started its nefarious and clandestine activities by refusing to listen to the people then reasonable Ghanaians should advise themsllves. It is a matter of peaceful change being made impossible so violent change has been made unavoidable. This is the only way to save Ghana from total collapse. We should also watch out and make a list of corrupt officials who have ruined our country so that at the appropriate time we clean them from society once and for all.

For the security of Ghana, it is imperative that the EC suspends this registration and look into these matters with an open mind. After all, we are in 2014, two years away from the elections.

This is important to preserve the good image the organisation has acquired around the world.

However it is about time the political parties realize the purpose of elections is to capture the aspirations of the majority of taxpayers and hence this micro suspicion of everyone who votes is not proper.

In fact, we must move on to the day when tax payers and not just citizens should be able to vote. This is how to grow a modern nation. It is wrong for a Ghanaian leaving thousands of miles away to have a right to vote greater than a resident African or even European who has contributed to our nation's progress to be denied that right.

After all, these foreign Ghanaians actually enjoy the same privileges and are allowed to vote in their various nations of residents.

Yes, we need to get things right, but that needs to be done to ensure it does not give a single party an undue advantage or does not threaten the peace and security of the nation.

This whole noise making from the opposition must stop and be replaced with them preparing as an alternative government by providing sensible alternative policies to the public instead of the over criticisms of the government.

After all, the people will get the chance to decide every four years if the government has fulfilled her promises and so criticisms must be left to the people and not the parties.

Again I wish for the day when these mushroom think-tanks actually develop into idea creating organisations instead of impediment to progress as they are at the moment.

Let us love our nation and be progressive instead of just frustratingly critical.

Why would the same Danquah Institution that already frown on the 1992 constitution, settle on an aspect of the same document that in fact, needs to be reviewed with all the other contentious issues.
I think this matter could have been settle with the EC beyond closed doors. After all, I have heard all the arguments and I understand the EC is actually going back on her words and needs to be prompted to that instead of the opportunity to make a public grande stand for your organisation and a spectacle of our institutions. No one is a winner in all this.

I believe NDC as do NPP or any other party must seek genuine means to rule Ghana. After all, the constitution and our heritage gives them equal right to manage this previous nation as the NPP.
Let us stop politicizing the EC when one party is not in power.

The Danquah Institute cannot arrogate to itself Ombudsman role to be interfering with the work of the EC. How many years now since the petition case came to an end ? what was the IPAC doing all this days ? DI should give us a break and allow the EC to go about its constitutional mandate.

Why is this blind useless inst allowed to be throwing dust into our eyes to blind ghanaians. Owners of this inst are so intellectually blind that they can perceive that two three four five or even six or more persons can bear the same same. This is how they kill innocent people and say awful things about government and people of ghana. We shall see how their so-called arab spring can take off without being crushed by the the anvil of God.

I wish I cold know why Ghanaians are NOT registered as citizens with date of birth, place of birth, current home address identity cards once and for all instead of these periodic voters registration. Imagine the change of birth dates, very common in Ghana. That old tired senior officials who go to swear affidavits to reduce their age to prolong their days in office when it is actually time for them to go on pension!

WHEN THE NPP IS OUT OF POWER, THEY ALWAYS FIND SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE VOTER'S REGISTER. WHICH VOTER'S REGISTER WAS USED IN 2000 AND 2004 ? WAS IT NOT THE SAME AFARI GYAN WHO WAS THE ELECTORAL COMMISSIONER? THIS IS JUST SOUR GRAPES FROM THE SHAMELESS AND GREEDY NPP FOLKS. THIS ATTITUDE WILL NEVER BRING THEM BACK TO POWER. THEY DONT LIKE PEACE BUT ALWAYS WANT TO CREATE TROUBLE WHERE THERE IS NONE. DR AFARI GYAN IS THE BEST THING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO GHANA. WHEN YOU LOOSE ELECTION JUST ACCEPT IT AND TRY AGAIN. THE NPP PEOPLE MAKE TOO MUCH NOISE AS IF WHATEVER THEY SAY SHOULD BE LAW. THIS IS WHAT ALIENATES THEM FROM MAJORITY OF GHANAIANS. NPP LEAVE THE ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO DO WHAT THEY KNOW BEST. YOU SHOULD NOT EXPECT THEM TO ALWAYS DANCE TO YOUR TUNE.

The chairman of the EC and all its members who are in decision making positions should reason and think of the long term of Ghana, and relegate their personal interest to the background. As tax payers from whose sweat they are being paid, it is important for them to undertake their duties to the interest of the people.
We all are witness to the revelations during the petition that held this country still and could have turned this country into flames but for the intervention of God. The effect the petition had on the country cannot be forgotten soon. Reasonable individuals as we have in everywhere in the world will reflect and avoid the repetition of what happened but as typical blacks, we will not learn anything from what happened.
All the political parties especially those who believe in fairness and transparency in election should impress upon the EC to deal with all the concerns which have the potential of creating disharmony in the country. The government should provide funds for the issues which require financial support to deal with but there could be others which can be dealt with by re-engineering.
The debt incurred by the government is to be paid by the citizens so government should not hold our future to ransom by dragging its feet in dealing with the election related matters.
