A FEW YEARS AGO THE PEOPLE OF RWANDA (HUTUS AND TUTSIS) WERE VERY FOOLISH (DISCRIMINATING AGAINST EACH OTHER) AND THEY PAID DEARLY FOR THEIR FOOLISHNESS. YOU DON'T BUILD A NATION WITH DIVISION. WE NEED A RESPONSIBLE LEADER. READ THE FOLLOWING:
President Mahama has chastised the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) for not selecting a competent northerner as its flagbearer.
Citing an example of former Vice President Ahaji Aliu Mahama, President Mahama accused the NPP for paying little attention to northerners.
According to him, the NPP has shown in the past that it has very little respect for northerners and therefore cannot be trusted.
The President made the remarks in Tongo when he resumed his camping tour of the Upper East region after suspending it for three days to attend to the victims of the Melcom disaster in Accra.
He said “our brother Aliu Mahama was Vice President for 8 years. I was Vice President for 3 and half years. For almost 12 years, we have tasted Vice Presidency. It’s no longer exciting. It’s no longer what we want.”
He said if the NPP wants votes from the northern part of the country, then they should put up Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia as their flagbearer to face-off with him.
“They want to win here, they should put him in number one and let two of us contest and then they will get something from here,” the president said.
Meanwhile, President Mahama has described the defeat of the republicans in the US elections as a good omen for the ruling NDC and an indication that similar thing will be replicated in Ghana in the upcoming elections.
According to him, anytime the democrat party win an election in the US, the NDC also wins in Ghana, making reference to the 2008 elections.
He said: “In 2008 polls in the USA, Obama won by chasing the elephant into the bush and later the NDC also chased the elephant into the bush in Ghana, and just this week, Obama has again chased the elephant into the bush, which will be replicated in Ghana in December.”
He said the performance of the NDC government in the last four years is enough evidence to encourage more Ghanaians to vote massively for the party in the forthcoming elections.
President Mahama said inspite of the increase in wage bills as a result of the implementation of the single spine salary structure, government is still economically solid to execute more development projects in the phase two of the Better Ghana Agenda.

"In a statement however, the NCCE said it has never used Mahindra vehicles for its operations and does not own one.
“We urge the media and all political parties to desist from drawing the NCCE into any partisan brawling. We assure the good people of Ghana that the NCCE as a Constitutional Body remains independent"
IF this is a joke, it is not even funny. NCCE is independent? Even BNI and EC have been turned into NDC appendages and this toothless agency with men wearing skirt is telling us they are independent from Mahama incompetent government?
No, you don't have Mahandra vehicles because NDC has taken ownership of them.

Sir, much as I love the beginning of your posting, I find the quote here very selective. Mahama might have said what you have quoted how about the NPP? How national are they? The two main parties are bent on plunging our dear nation into an abysm of barbarism and destitution and this is what all level headed Ghanaians should note and fight against.

Beware Ghanaians, the NPP has no message neither do they have any development plans nor agenda for the country. They did it ti Nkrumah & the CPP just due to their selfish and greedy intentions. When Nkrumah was negotiating to Build the Harbour, Fishing Harbour, Ghana ship yard and Akosombo, the United Party ( current NPP) were campaigning against all those projects with the theme, Ghana is being dragged to financial disaster that it can never come out, day and night, and that is what they are doing today to the NDC under Mahama.

Ghana will soon implode due to political malfeasance. Come to think about this: If the argument is true, a political party, that is NDC, has the financial resources to purchase 50 cars to campaign. Was it an individual contribution, or a party purchase?
If the former, then that individual expect to get back his investment through the award of corrupt contracts. If the latter, then the NDC has no internalized moral conscience to display its ill-gotten opulence in the midst of suffering Ghanaians. Either way, the NDC has a very weak defense.
I am scared about the "I don't care" attitude of the NDC. But the alternative, the septuagenarian politician and his cabal of NPP miscreant are equally not good.
Indeed, Ghana is hemmed in.
Implosion is imminent.

Events that are unfolding give the impression that the NDC is a party that is most of the time engaged in dubious activities. Corruption, stealing, lying etc seem to be the activities that the NDC very much interested in.
