So we see how corruption has lived deeply with the NPP, the party is undemocratic by influencing votes for their preferred choice but not for the peoples choice. We won't accept such undemocratic behaviour.

But for the unattainable ambition of one man; noble and dignified persons have been sacrificed just because they expressed alternative opinion . Today in NPP stupidity and unintelligent people have been promoted beyond measure where acid, killings, cutlasses, brooms and insults are their weapon. You dare not have to hold any opinion, damn you; you either get killed, suspended or sacked. Awwww……….Seriously something is wrong somewhere.

What can you do again after you have spilled the milk?

What is the value of salt if it has lost its taste?

How can you rule over people when you are such a racist and intolerable?

This man has no conscience or integrity he only fakes his way into everything but least knows what entails to be called a head of state. In broad day light in his party office; officials who were conducting democratic exercise were butchered in his name.

Just as has been his demeanour of keeping silent on all crimes levelled against him from being certificate less, Drug baron, Drug user, and womaniser, son of a traitor, drill ship thievery and his involvement in the release of drug barons from jail only Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo can tell; till now he has made no comment about these heinous act.

All that you guys claim to stand for are coloured by your political preferences and you think that will earn you some progress . Alas !....... This however shows how immature and silly you are in dialogue on issues of fair justice.

“Difficulties” are part of life, so it is for a growing nation like ours. It takes sacrifices to build a nation and not laziness and gluttony to consume and destroy what we have here and now. It is obvious that the gluttonous opposition NPP has nothing to clinch on for their campaign; so they think using “corruption” as a slogan will earn them some moral image. It is not do or die to be leader of a nation; it is however the free decision of the masses to choose who they want. You can even make snow fall in the desert or fly without wing; if you are not liked you are not liked.

The question is “Who is more corrupt in Ghana than these Dankwa / Busia folks?”

Attacking and distracting leaders without sound alternative is not only sickening with these folks but also portrays immaturity and emptiness. They just want to do or say something to grab unnecessary attention.

They have no solution???. If you test their opinion to deep analysis, you always end up by cheap and shallow political biases and unfounded allegations.

Always rushing to comment before analysing, attacking before asking what is at stake.

Is this not silly and idiocy?

Hey, Head Negro Esseku, why pour petrol (gas) on already burning house??

These comments are completely unnecessary at this time. You guys selected Afoko because of his wealth (from his businesses) to help the party and not because he was from the north.

By the way; where do you come from yourself, Esseku, since I read your name to be somebody from one of the three northern regions and you were once the national chairman of the NPP?

So, all of you down there: STOP STOKING THE FLAMES BURNING THE NPP. You’ve some elections to contest and this silly talk and the back-biting wouldn’t help the party.

Who else would come out and utter such nonsense? Except Mr. Haruna Esseku, the thief, of course. This arsehole tried his all to commandeer or encroach into my land in Kokrobite during their reign, but realised my biggest influence and power as far as Accra is concerned than his Kalabule arse. This incident happened in the summer of 2006 by which I was peacefully enjoying my short vacation in our cherished home sweet home. Should I have been absent that summer, the story would have been different. Such was the stealing this man was into across board during their time in office.

If the only reason Mr Esseku and the like are called elders is because of their age and longetivity in the party, then the definition of elders must change. A Party Elder should be someone who stays above the fray in a conflict so that they can be called upon to mediate and settle disputes. Their silence must be golden and they must work behind the scenes to remain respected and honored even when they voice their strong views, it should be done privately and confidentially. So Mr. Esseku, when an elder begins to compete in the media for attention with serial callers and foot soldiers, or openly takes sides and defends one faction, that person ceases to be a "party elder" and is just a talkative politically immature retired veteran, and senile perhaps.

Afoko within six months after taking office with Kwabena Agyepong. Between the two of them, they had gone to change all the names in our banks , those who control the finance, they changed them and the two of them became the most senior people to sign the cheques".
If the Chairman and the General Secretary are not the most powerful to sign cheques for the activities of the party who else should do that? Ought there not be some sanity on the dispbursemnet of party funds? Should they sit down and watch helplessly as paty funds are disbursed by others and in the end they (Chairman and GS) bear the blame?

Esseku is getting old and getting more stupid. Want is the job of a Chairman. You can not organise a meeting in a party without the Chairman of that party organise it.
This Nana Addo should step down and let Mahamadu take over. He is useless as a political flag bearer. If really Nana Addo is a Lawyer he wouldnt have been sitting there beggaring for money and not trying to have the only and first ever national NP party CHAIRMAN from the northern regions to take office from the corrupted officers we had before.
NPP is not for the people of the southern part of the country only, our fathers from the north were the first to bring the idea and help form the party.
NNP money is not the money of any single person. We voted Paul Afoko and his Executives to manager all the money and property of the party. We elected them to make the final decisions for the party lead by Paul Afoko.
Why should a chairman attend a meeting about his office without his or her permission.
THE TRIBALISM OF NPP MUST STOP AND OUR NATIONAL ELECTED EXECUTIVES BACK TO OFFICE.
We want to know how every cedi is spend in our party. The money belongs to the party and the Chairman signature MUST be on any money taken out or going into our accounts.
NANA ADDO IS MENTALLY CORRUPTED AND SELF CENTRED. Shame I miss used my vote by voting for him as flag bearer.

Harruna Esseku's hatred for Pres. Kuffour is legendary, remember the "car booth money sharing" episode. Harruna Esseku claimed at the time that Pres. Kuffour was sharing the party money from his car booth instead of giving it to him,Esseku, to distribute. So for this reason anybody perceived to be close to Pres. Kuffour must be crushed at all cost.

The intention of the Committee of Elders was not a bad one; as I see it, it is what the Chairman and the Secretary were purported to have done was deemed to be questionable - if indeed the two changed the signatories clandestinely.
On the other hand it must also be stated that usually either Chairman and Treasurer, or in the absence of one, that the Secretary signs.
What is in question here is whether or not the political party expressly stipulated that the flag-bearer must also be a party to the arrangement.

The beauty of all this is that, the rigorous structures and constitution of the party, crafted exactly to deal with such impunity works, and is working, very critical and salient ingredients needed in a right, proper and functioning democracy, indeed, the checks and balances needed to curtail and obliterate any and all acts of organised impunity and chaos.

The NPP established core Elders mostly sided with Akufo-Addo from the very beginning, and undermined Afoko by trying to get him miss the Tamale Conference through prolonged restrictions by the Interpol that they had reported him to.

The Elders held a sway for the status quo that was allied to Akufo-Addo, and led by the Sir John-Jake duo. Therefore, Esseku is very wrong on this. It is only that clearly, Afoko and Agyepong had the backing of Alan's side of the NPP.

WHETHER NPP ELDERS INFLUENCED AFOKO'S ELECTION,OPAYIN ESSEKU, WHAT SENSE DOES IT MAKE TO THE PARTY AND ITS MEMBERS.

ALL THE SAME,AFOKO HAS TO BE PRAISED FOR COMING TO CLEAN THE CORRUPT PRACTICES WITHIN THE PARTY.

LASTLY, HOW CAN THE NPP WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION IN NOVEMBER 2016 WITHOUT A PARTY HEAD.

IT SOUNDS, THE PARTY IS NOT AT ALL WELL ORGANISED AND TO HAVE THE MANDATE OF THE PEOPLE IN GHANA.

A word to a wise. Northerners now you have seen it and heard it. They went to Tamale to elect Afoko to decieve you. Think twice, Bawumia is just there for northern votes.. Vote for Mahama

There is nothing like three northern regions but one northern region. However there are three regions in the north.

Simple questions: Who are the constitutionally mandated signatories to the NPP accounts? If that is Afoko and K. Agyapong and whoever, what wrong did they do changing the names upon resumption of office? Did They have have to wait for Esseku and his pals to meet in the night to take a decision as to who should be a signatory?
These as sad days for the NPP
