    ALAN IS GOING TO VOTE FOR NANA ADDO.Thank you Mr ALAN.

  • Efo Kossi Korve 9 years ago

    I cannot tell if it is deliberate deception of the reading public or it is a case that these guys at Statesman do not understand simple English. Indeed nowhere did Alan say either expressly or implicitly that Akufo Addo won ...

  • Kofi Ata, Cambridge, UK 9 years ago

    Efo, I agree with you and knowing the Statesman as strong supporter of Nana Akufo-Addo, the misleading headline is deliberate and to make Alan's challenge for the flagbearership untenable.

  • UKIP 9 years ago

    Alan was talking about NPP'S belief in stealing and looting.

    but anyway, no sensible Ghanaian will ever vote thieving npp again to power.

  • Krikri 9 years ago

    Alan, you will be disappointed again in 2016. Ghanaians are fed up with cocaine barons who came to power in 2000 to LOOT & STEAL under the greedy thief, Ali Baba

  • BE BOLD 9 years ago

    What do you think is happening now? Can you look in the mirror and smile over the situation in Ghana? Please anser to yourself and not the forum.

  • Drooche 9 years ago

    Question, If Alan knows that Nana won the 2012 elections, why did he say Nana can not win 2016? We all know Alan can not even win the nominations anyway let alone the 2016 elections.

  • GHANABA 1 9 years ago

    If you know Nana won the 2016 elections,but was stolen from him, why are you contesting him to bring disruption in the party?
    Alan, a word to wise is enough

  • Kay 9 years ago

    Probably he doesn't want Nana to win again hahahaaaa Ghana politics so funny.While the NDC is dozing on the throne,the NPP is also fast asleep on the touch-line.

    If what you are saying that Nana won last elections then it sounds to reason that he is better candidate than you, so why contest him?
