Where would NPP get money to pay off these milions of $? If they had won the 2012 elections they would have settled it looooong time ago thru: STEALING, INFLATED CONTRACTS, CASH BORROWED FROM HAIR DRESSING SALOON, BRIBERY AND FINALLY COCAINE MONEY. such useless adventures lead our politicians to be corrupt - both NPP and NDC. Lets throw away this western democracy and find our own.

Rawlings has called Hannah Tetteh out for usurping the powers of the Vice President on the say so of John Mahama and described it as very, very disrespectful, and also, after she walked out on Rawlings, the Accra Mayor-Oko Vanderpuje and the Vice President at the Mayoral Summit in Accra.
This was after John Mahama it was stated emphatically elected Hannah Tetteh to deliver a speech on his behalf knowing that the Vice President was still available and in his absence, the Vice President acts. Rawlings it is said asked why the Vice President was not the one to be delivering the speech at which instance John Mahama was asked why his Vice was not representing him, at which he told Rawlings, it was Hannah Tetteh. This drew the ire of Rawlings and angry Rawlings made it clear it was very disrespectful more so when Hannah Tetteh was asked to give the speech to the Vice President and she summarily stormed out and off the Mayoral summit.

That is the main reason and even more. That is why the NPP wanted to come to power at all costs, so they can defray their debt with public funds and even steal more of it after their debt is settled. They legitimize their stealing by going into politics, and having their businesses connected to politics to make it easy for them to swindle public funds. Thieves - All of THEM. How can a business person solely guarantee a gargantuan loan for a political party if there is nothing in it for him upon the party's winning of the elections?

CLASSIC CASE OF HOW NOT TO RUN A PUBLIC ORGANISATION! NEVER ALLOW PRIVATE AND PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP INTERFERE WITH PUBLIC DUTY. RUNNING A PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN IS A PUBLIC DUTY. ALL FINANCES MUST BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PARTY. BUT OWUSU AFRIYIE IS CONFUSING EVERYONE, AND HE CALLS HIMSELF A LAWYER. WHY DID HE,, AS GENERAL SECRETARY OF NPP ALLOW KEN OFORI-ATTA TO GUARRANTEE THE PARTY'S DEBT? WHAT MANDATE HAS THE PARTY GIVEN TO OFORI-ATTA TO CONTRACT LOANS ON BEHALF OF THE PARTY? OWUS AFRIYIE IS BEING MISCHIEVOUS TO SUGGEST THAT AFOKO AND AGYAPONG PAY THIS DEBT. OR SIMPLY BEING DISHONEST, LAW DEGREE NOTWITHSTANDING!

Party top-brass, as usual, got more than their fair share of the booty!
Recall the nasty legal fight the constituency executives were embroiled in with the incumbent NPP MP for Obuasi East, Kwaku Kwarteng ,over some GHC 20k alledgely disbursed by Owusu Afriyie from party Headquarters, that never reached the intended destination?
To date, the old administration headed by the tag-team of Jake and Owusu Afriyie have not been able to account the huge sums of money supposedly used for 2012 election fiasco. And this is what infuriated Kennedy Agyapong, who then 'engineered' their ouster at the Party`s General Congress in Tamale.
So, all that Owusu Afriyie is trying to do here is cover his 'backside'.

NDC has a big problem.is that going to put food on peoples table? Is it part of national coffers? Is it part of ndc failures? Or is that going to make ndc succeed? Whatever, ndc will GO to opposition come 2016. Your propaganda and vilifications will never make you whole from your crimes and sins against the Ghanaian people. Ghanaians want to see your back bcos ndc is not a political party but an evil and criminal organisation. NDC WILL GO COME 2016. GHANA SHALL OVERCOME, LONG LIVE THE NPP & LONG LIVE GHANA.

Please do not spoil it for the dimwits who have been praying to a demi-god to deliver Ghana into the hands of Nana Akufo-Addo and Co. If these characters are the best and honest politicians Ghana has to offer then we should get down on our knees each day and thank God for his mercies to have kept us alive in Ghana over these years. To think that people are willing to die including possibly killing of innocent NPP members to see Nana Akufo-Addo in power is to know the hollow rhetorical crap of the intellect of NPP membership; NPP, like NDC, have had plans to bleed Ghana dry just as long as a few get rich while the rest of us admire their riches from afar.

Ken Ofori-Atta invested his money and credit for NPP because he hopes to become filthy rich under a Nana Akufo-Addo administration where any and all contracts would be awarded his outfit/databank and all pension funds of civil servants would find their way to his investment and financial house as investor of all things government. It does not take a rocket scientist to look at existing contracts between investment houses and the national government.

It should now become clear even those born to be followers why the NPP have been questioning current government on every invested public funds; they would like to know how much and the percentage they can skim right off the bat to rewards these selfish and degenerate individuals who live to see an NPP administration headed by Nana Akufo-Addo. It is rather unfortunate people were praising this Ken Ofori-Atta character for what he presumed to have achieved when he came by his money the old crooked ways like every other rich Ghanaian alive or dead.
