The real problem now is not whether enough people will vote for the Mahama government. The evidence is clear that the majority of the population want change and want it now. The problem however is to ensure that this strenght of feeling which will duly be mirrored during the elections, is not twisted to a different outcome.

We can only elect the best of the worst. The winner is a forgone conclusion. Why should we elect somebody who we do not know his background? We do not his class mates at the law school!! When was he in Oxford and what led him not to complete Oxford. He should explain these things. We are seeing glaring examples of how he is managing NPP. Do we want him to do the same to Ghana. Certainly I will not vote for such a person.

You see, a lot of things are generally common sense. Those against Nana Akuffo Addo are counting on the notion that you are so stupid, you would believe everything they tell you.
The information is there and you just have to apply the logic to see which side does not make sense.
Who is Mahama's classmates?
How you anwer that will surprisingly be similar to that of NAA's
Don't be gullible. Things are going bad and some are counting on you to be dumb. Do not give them that pleasure.
Don't vote because of hatred, vote because you want to make things better for everyone.
Best wishes.

Nana Addo has no ideas. His free education promise was not questioned by journalists otherwise Ghanaians will realize how clueless he is. We in Ghana know the education system lacks schools that's why many kids attend schools in a shift system. Some in the morning and others in the afternoon. So when a candidate makes such a statement just to win votes, the media must ask him questions. Is he nana Addo not aware of our falling standing in education telling us our content needs upgrading? What about training teachers for better delivery of the content? How do you ignore all these and use funds to offer free education?
Recently this same candidate mentioned he will build factories in every district? How? With what money and what power? And what know how to manage such factories?
You see we are not serious that's why the politicians run the agenda and media men just collect envelopes for it

The argument out there is very very simple.Theres no way voters can ever be sure of better life under a new regime. But the beauty of democracy is that it offers chance for voters to change every 4 years..... The incumbent Mahama has perfomed abysmally and in the process dissipated huge public funds. The monies pumped in, in 8 years of NDC show the economy could have been turned round ..... In the circumstances the best option is to vote Akufo Ado in. If he messes up, then we have the chance to change him in 4 years....
It's only under dictatorship that such a woeful incumbent as Mahama can want to win again .
It does not make sense that majority voters can give a fresh mandate to a confirmed failure like Mahama/ NDC in a democracy... ..... ...
What then does peoples power mean?...........
If Mahama and NDC still win they will even laugh at us.. that so Ghanaians can be so easy?

Ghana needs basic infrastructure and JM had provided some in power and education. The economies of many nations are not looking good but I will rather vote for a president that managed an economy that is buckled down by the single spine salary and without much aid.
That is much better than an unknown Situation from Nana Addo who had reached and gone past his active years and approaching 80 years.
NPP continue to attack Mahama handling of the economy buyer are yet to hear them suggest one alternative solution. Maybe they have none else why have they not done so?

We need infrastructure. That does not mean we should be given infrastructure which fails value for money principles.
The facility should cost $100, then it is provide at $1000. Then you say we should not talk, And it goes on and on. Then billions of public funds are corruptly dissipated and generations suffer. And you still vote for such a leader::::: If Mahama/Mills felt that there was something wrong with SSSS, why did they implement it? They waited for 2 years to examine it very well before implementation. Dunces and mediocre as they are, what they brought out of the due diligence is garbage and you turn round to blame Kufuor for the garbage? come again and be objective. And remenber that Kufuor set up the SSSS structure. They never set the salary levels. The salary levels were set up by this same incompetent Mills/Mahama for political points

The media men today's are not worthy. They are all motivated with money in brown envelopes so their mentality is not aligned to asking pertinent question but looking for a way to make a quick buck.

Ghanaians are very lazy, they see the government as God who should have answers to every problem that confront them in all spheres of their respective lives. They sit under trees and play draft and oware, follow politicians as if change in government is the answer to their problems. They have changed government more than 8 times since independent but still wallow in their poverty. It is not change of government that is needed at this time we need change of attitude of all Ghanaians. We have to be innovative and hard working, the government cannot monitor the work that we do in the ministries, that is why we have ministers and directors. If all of them do their work responsibly, we will move forward. The you should not sit and wait for government to employ them, be creative find something to do. In Amer

Rome was not built in a day, so goes the popular saying. That Ghana has witnessed massive developments in the fields of infrastructure, education through the construction of SHS, elimination of the hitherto chronic electricity problem, otherwise termed as dumsor makes the case that he is a better alternative and should be reelected. The fact that he has been able to accomplish all these things in his first term is an indication that he can solve the youth unemployment problems through jobs creation in his second term. Ghana had to go under HIPC under the Kufuor administration to witness economics progress. Therefore, the issue of inflation leading to depreciation of the cedi and the subsequent intervention by the IMF should not be treated differently or in isolation but within the context of the global economy. IN the USA, when President Obama came to power, the global economy was heading towards recession. in Europe, Greece economy was on a free fall leading to a bail out from the EU. Still their economy is struggling. In the US, Unemployment still continues to linger, despite the addition of jobs. People are feeling the effects of economic hardship, living from pay check to pay check with stagnant wages against the rising cost of living. Things are not the same 18 yrs ago. Ghana is doing better under JDM, even though there are challenges. JDM has been tested and proven. What would Akufu Ado do differently that JDM is not already doing?
