NDC Replies to NPP

NPP’s Devilish Propaganda Must Be Ignored

Having been stung badly by the desire of majority of Ghanaians to change the wrong direction in which the nation has been moving in the last eight years, the NPP is employing its usual wicked propaganda tactic hoping to use it to hijack the mandate of the good people of Ghana.

Employing a weapon of fear-mongering, the NPP is putting out wicked and untrue stories about the NDC having a list of people who will be eliminated once the NDC is given the mandate to manage the affairs of state.

Using one of its propaganda mouthpieces, “The New Democrat”, the paper last week carried an untrue story about the NDC planning to eliminate Mr. Allan Kyeremanteng.

Because of the NDC’s good performance in the Ashanti Region, that story was obviously meant to whip up anti NDC sentiments in the Ashanti Region.

Then in yesterday’s Daily Graphic, there was another story about some group planning to eliminate Reverend Dr. Mensah Otabil. Whiles the story did not mention the name of the group, the NPP is using its propaganda machinery to create the impression that it is the NDC that is plotting to eliminate Reverend Dr. Mensah Otabil.

Clearly, the NPP is hoping to whip up anti NDC sentiments within the Christian community.

We wish to state in unequivocal terms that Professor John Evans Atta Mills is not the Leader of bunch of evil-minded goons.

Professor Mills is the Leader of a political party that has put out a credible agenda of building a Better Ghana; which has won hearts and minds.

Professor John Evans Atta Mills, over the period that he has been in frontline politics, has cut a very clean image for himself and exudes nothing but peace.

Indeed, Professor Mills was tagged “Asomdwehene” by the good people of Ghana because the learned Professor speaks nothing but peace.

The good people of Ghana are very discerning and we believe that this wicked and sinister move by the NPP to use the fear factor to shore up its dwindled fortunes will not see the light of day.

Change is coming, and all we are asking, is for Ghanaians to stay focused and not allow the NPP’s wicked agenda to sway them from voting massively for change come December 28th.

It is very obvious that the NPP is bleeding badly, and will hemorrhage even more, if it thinks that its fear-mongering tactic will wish away the strong desire of Ghanaians to usher in CHANGE for a Better Ghana to be built.
