Please keep Bawumia away from the Presidency. We have enough problems in Ghana already, and don't want to add a Muslim insurgency.

Alan is too weak to be president. NPP is killing themselves with this "it is his turn" business. I would like to see Bawumia at the top of the ticket and someone (smart person) from the Central, Brong Ahafo or Western Region at the botton. That would be a winning strategy.

The Akans think NPP is for them, why are they not lobbying for Bawumia, and even if Nana will not run they are choosing Alan over Bawumia. If this happens all northerners should quit NPP to teach them a lesson.

I totally support Mr Jumah's suggestion. However, I think NPP should not commit the same mistake we did in 2008 when we pushed aside Alhaji Aliu Mahama and selected Nana Akufo-Addo, which has caused us two election defeats especially 2012 election which we should have won by about 70 percent due to limited time Mr Mahama had for compaign and serious corruption like the Woyome scandal.

I am Allan Cash supporter but for NPP to win 2016 election, we needs to select Dr Bawumia us our flagbearer with Alan as his running mate. This will stop NPP tagged as an Akan party and win us votes from the other eight regions.

Finally, I will suggest if we select Allan or any other Akan person, we should select Ga or an Ewe as his running mate because it will be an insult to the Northerners if we select someone from the north again.

Let us not play into NDC hands with their propaganda.

Bawumia with Allan as running will best for 2016.

Why Alan at all? What does he add to the ticket? You need to motivate the folks in the swing Akan regions such as Central, Brong Ahafo or Western region. You need to pick someone (likeable) from one of those regions since Ghanaians tend to go for their own tribesmen. Which is a dumb way to vote, but those are the facts on the ground. If NPP is able to win one of the 3 regions mentioned they are likely to win. Learn from NDC, they get someone from the Central region to secure their win, there is no way the NDC would win if they lost the Central Region and that was evident in the previous two tries of Mills when his folks were angry with him.

Let Bawumia contest Allan. Whoever wins adopts the other as his Vice. That understanding must be reached before the Congress. That is if Nana wants to join the Statesmen's Club.

This tribalistic NPP will always remain tribalistic. Why should Bawumia be made the running mate of Alan and not the other way round. Is it because he he neither an Asante nor an Akyem. Or is it because he is a Northner. Dr. Bawumia was a running mate twice and was the main NPP man during the SC hearing, but all of a certain he is not good enogh to be the Presidential candidate. NPP is a regional and tribalistic political party and until they change their way of during things to be become national, they will remain in the opposition for many many years to come.

I am enjoying all this bull-shit as the by-product of the NPP Pig-shit at the supreme court. These NPP big-shots easily give away the party's parochial and ethnocentric philosophy. I will forever remember Prez Kuffour who once said there was no qualified person from the Upper West Region to be in his cabinet. The the bomb shell came when we told the moronic late Aliu Mahama. "I have decided to retain my running mate because I have not finished using him yet" Yes he used him like a donkey in Garu till it was time to change the guards and moronic Aliu knew that he as a donkey being used. What the pathetic smile on Bawumiah's face at the supreme court hearing and you know he is yet another moron that is being "used" and would be dumped in the race for the flag bearership of the party.

Let me tell you Kofi Jumah,DR Bawumia is much smarter than your so-called Allan Cash,you these people have to stop that nonsense for what stupid Kuffour started in the years back,Kuffour is the course of the whole MESS in NPP right now,Allan is a paper weight which can never pull no vote,and if you still want to still stay opposition take Allan as your flagbearer.If Akuffo Addo decided not to run,Dr Bawumia have to be the flagbearer and his running mate have to be a person from B.A,and you these guys have to stop your tribal thinking.We are all Ghanaians no matter what region you do come from.That my advice to Npp elders and to Kofi Jumah.THANKS

Alan Kyerematen is not worthy to contest the presidential candidature of the NPP simply because of his behaviour after loosing to Nana Akuffo Addo in the previous Presidential contest. Alan after loosing the contests just forgot about the party and looked somewhere else. Allan will simply not have my vote should he become the presidential candidate of the NPP and I will also do my best to convince my followers not to vote for him. Alan is not having the NPP at heart but just wants to become president on the ticket of NPP. NANA ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and long live NANA.

The writer is very very stupid. Be he another Bush Ashanti or a backward Akyem, he is just STUPID. Forget about this useless and stupid AKAN nonsense. Those of us from the Central Region and Western Regions are either Fantis or Ahanta etc. We are not Akans. We are foremost Ghanaians and then Fantis and so on. You Asantes should not hide behide this nonsense AKAN issue for your primitive Agenda. The Ashanti and part of the Esatern Region can form your Republic with the Asantehene as your President. Leave the Brong Ahafo, Western, Central and Greater Accra Regions out of your NPP Akan Agenda.

To let barking dogs and other noisy animals lie low, NPP should rally behind Bawumia as a message that the party is not "Akan" as being speculated. Bawumia should be the flag bearer. Anything other than that will not sit well with some people. What is wrong with Bawumia leading the party?

Those days where we see some section of Ghanaians are "second class" should be a thing of the past because we are one and politics is by the numbers. The more votes you pull, winning comes to you. NPP, forge ahead and let others lead.

Mahama is beatable because his economic policies are destroying the nation and if Bawumia leads, NDC has not message to label NPP as a party for Akans and NDC will find it hard to sell their message.

An NPP man is out shopping AT Kejetia and discovers a new brand of Olympic condoms. Clearly impressed, he buys a pack. Upon getting home he announces to his wife the purchase he just made.

"Olympic condoms?" she asks, "What makes them so special?"

"There are three colors," he replies, "Gold, Silver and Bronze."

"What color are you going to wear tonight?" she asks cheekily.

"Gold of course," says the man proudly.

The wife responds, "Really, why don't you wear Silver, it would be nice if you came second for a change!"

WHY DON'T KYEREMANTENG COMES SECOND FOR A CHANGE WITH THE SILVER AND NANA DANKWA COMES THIRD WITH THE BRONZE FOR
A CHANGE.
WE HAVE SEEN ANOTHER PREJUDICE FROM KOFI JUMAH AND THE NPP THAT A NORTHERNER CANNOT LEAD THEIR PARTY.
DR BAWUMIA SHOULD WEAR GOLD FOR A CHANGE.

The best winning ticket for NPP will Bawumia and Dan Botwe. With Bawunia's global knowledge and experience in Economics and Finance and Dan Botwe's political experience the two dynamic guys will be the best 21st century candidates for NPP.
