Grow up Akwasi. Has anybody said Asante royalty was a criterion?
If a person is qualify why must his Asante royalty be used to deny him?

There they go...!!!!!! Two NPP RAGAMUFFIN BANDITS up here commenting! They are so stupid they don't even know the issue Kwesi Pratt is addressing, but they have come out with their bulubulu grammar just to come and speak NONSENSE!! Foolish fools...!!!!!!! Did we not see you same rascals making the argument that your NAPO who lacks home training is a royal so he deserves more to be selected...????? So, what is this nkwasiasem that you hopeless animals are fighting Pratt about...???? Do you people have punctured brains at all...???? Or, your lunacy is coming from the long effect of that pungent soup, prepared with the raw faeces of dead rats, garnished with "prekese..????"

You Togolese trokosi Ayigbe aliens have no peers when it comes to insults. What makes you people so uncouth? Inferiority complex? Can't you participate in any discussion without insulting others? O Ayigbes!! No wonder you are not Ghanaians. You are so different from average Ghanaians because there's no civility in you. What drives the hatred and bitterness in you? Insecurity, presumably?

Kwasi pratt your hypocrisy is unparalleled and it's not unknown to many Ghanaians, anyway stop bullying others whenever you are on a panel .One major ethnic group has voted for the Ndc since the fourth republic began and you don't see anything unpalatable about it. Asante is not a tribe as you are making others to believe. The most unpatriotic behaviour in this country is the behaviour of the Ewes, they see nothing wrong with the history of the P(NDC )

Napo has been in politics for so many years when his royalty wasn't an issue. Why do you make it an issue now? Let his work speak for him ... as Minister of Education and Minister of Energy. What did he do for the nation? That's what is important and not his royal status. He didn't come into politics flaunting his royalty but his merits. So, Kwasi Pratt, stop your BS and grow up.

Being an Ashanti Royal is a good qualification for leadership. This is because Ashanti Royals are well trained. They are given the best of education and carry themselves well in public. They are trained to mix with wise men. Of course there are few ones who become swollen headed and are encouraged to mix with fools. This explains why Nana Akwasi Agyemang became your friend and a member of the NDC. So yes to us it is a privilege for a well trained Royal like Nana Poku (short form Napo) to be in the leadership of the party. I tell you like John Kuffour also from Apagyafie, Nana Poku will bring in the votes. I urge Kwesi Pratt not to retire now. Hang on till you are ninety so that you can report on President Napo. Were you Pratt not one of those characters who spoke negatively about John Kuffour because of his Manhyia roots? Nonsense

Well trained means taking money meant for the poor to go to US university? Well trained means telling people to come out with their own time table? Well trained means saying that Ashantis will vote for you just with t-shirts? If those are what “well trained” means, then give me “BADLY trained” rather.

Kofi Gyebi, are you coming from a hole to the world and haven’t heard or seen the above FACTS? If you haven’t, Google is your friend.

Kwesi Pratt's argument is needless. No one says 'Napo' was chosen because he is a royal. But once he is chosen everything about him that can contribute to winning will be brought to the package. NDC touted the selection of woman as running mate which is not a criteria. Some time ago they even cited height and handsomeness as criteria but we heard no rhetoric from Mr Pratt. So, he shouldn't bother if NPP is citing the royalty of Napo. It can't be downplayed. In Ghanaian traditions royals are born with automatic followers that others don't have.

Ghanaians hate to hear the truth.
The only reason for considering Napo the disrespectful royal and not any good performance. They only played deep tribal cards considerations, without any authentic performance prowess.
Anyone who disagrees is only being disingenuous and a typical political fool. What those who forced on him on the NPP must know is that there are great intelligent qualified professors, Doctors and other distinguished experts in the region like good bankers, economists, all professional.
NPP will bitterly get to know that ashantis are not the only tribe in Ghana and not more than the overall population of Ghana.
Since when did royal or tribalism became part of our politics. I will advise crazy politicians to desist from that immediately before we destroys ourselves through tribalism.
Ask Rewandans about the Hutus and the Tutus and what deep rooted tribalism mixed with politics can to a nation.
Ain't Ghanaians one people anymore? and must ones tribe play open significant role in our body politic? DANGEROUS ,DANGEROUS DANGEROUS.STOP STOP STOP you tribal chiefs!!!!!!
Why are the chiefs doing this?.It is all about gaining unnecessary supremacy over other tribes which must not be tolerated in any form or shape.We used to only talk about regions where political candidates are coming from which is fair, but not the tribe they are from.It is very dangerous.
Rewanda learned from their bad experience.
Please don't mix tribalism with politics.

God, please Ghana is in your hands., please save us.

Nuumo or whatever you call yourself, you have demonstrated how ignorant and stupid you are by saying that Bawumia chose napo because of his royality. Napo implemented the free shs that parents and their wards enjoyed and are still enjoying today, he restored the teaching and nursing trainees allowances. Your running mate couldn't even implement the so call progressively free education but napo was able to do the bigger one, common chalk was a problem in this country in her era as the education minister. Your party couldn't even pay a dime of the debt of progressive free education yet you want us to see Jane naana as the best. In fact you are even more stupid than the word stupid.

This crop of NPP hierarchy are destroying the party by engaging in acute ethnocentrism, narcissistic royalty and reckless tribal bigotry. One can see a clear nexus between this unacceptable social prohibitions and the role of Manyia in all this cacophonous symphony of propagandist machinations. Effectively, are they trying to tell us that all of a sudden Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanteng does not fit the bill because he is not a royal? A very bad precedent, and I hope Otumfuor is paying attention.

One has to take whatever Kwesi says with a pinch of salt cos he’s good at cleverly twisting information to suit the argument he wants to make. One has to go back to listen to the audio he refers to and one would realize the untruth that he refers to. He tried it again on the program with Miracles but he(Miracles) was not having it. Kwesi is never comfortable in the radio studio when other panelists are ready to challenge him in the lies he spews. It’s a hard road trying to appear neutral when in real fact you’re as politically biased as they come. Kwesi has been trying to walk that road over the years and he’s getting horribly exposed.

Kwesi, Manhyia has always been the headquarters of the Danquah/Busia group in the Ashanti Region. All the opposition to Kwame Nkrumah from the Ashanti Region originated from Manhyia. NAPO being a royal of Manhyia and belonging to the NPP is no accident. I am sure they groomed and encouraged him to be what he is now politically. And being in a profession that doesn't pay in Ghana he stands to gain enormously from Ghana politics.
