No disrespect to Nana Akufo-Addo but he is too old and lacks critical ideas to the development of Ghana and for that matter, Africa as a continent. The world is advancing with information technology and Africa must catch up as quickly as possible. This means that Ghana or Africa needs young and vibrant leaders with fresh ideologies to unite and form stronger ties among the people in other to combat diseases and security issues facing the continent.

Akufo Addo's character and chastisement infused with a 1st and 2nd world war mentality would harm Ghana so badly that it will retrogress everything Dr Kwame Nkrumah and all those great African leaders fought for.

A great leader needs to seen inspiring, motivating, educating and helping the people to better their lives and not inciting hate and dividing the people with bunch of lies in the name of politics. Considering Nana Akufo-Addo's age one would think that he would come up with strategic plans to better the lives of the old in society and strengthen the pension scheme but he has never ever mention the word pension nor even scheme.

Leadership is action infused with positive results and Nana Akufo Addo lacks credibility to be a leader for Ghana and for that matter Africa.
Ghana be wise and vote for a young and a vibrant leader with a great integrity to bring strategic development. I pray for mentality change long and live for Ghana. May GOD bless us all!

Bro say it again , when will people see things the way they are? Politics has nothing to do with age, if age determines the ability to lead then an infant child can be put into office. It is time we the people wise up and vote based on the conditions of our lives and our future. If NDC have done such a good job , and are transforming Ghana into America , then why are all their children schooling and living in abroad. Come and see go to Swarthmore college , temple university , Penn state university etc. They are filled with sons/daughters of government officials of Ghana. Their children will go abroad to live and study and come back to Ghana to rule over you and your children thus making you hopeless and foolish for voting for them.We have to be wise your own children deserve the same opportunuty.

Tell your thieving politician friends to remember the toil of millions of KAYAYES slaving in Kumasi and Accra... ...

President John Mahama
New Patriotic Party (NPP) has disclosed that the Mahama-led National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration has allegedly paid about GH¢949,661,017 through Ghana Youth Employment and Entrepreneurial Agency (GYEEDA), now Youth Employment Agency to Rlg Communications Ghana Limited for no work done.

The information and communications technology (ICT) company owned by a Ghanaian entrepreneur, Mr. Roland Agambire, NPP revealed, was “owing” another GH¢259,000,000 when the December 2012 general elections were over.

“Thus, as much as GH¢1,208,661,017 was spent on an elaborate, corrupt scheme, created mainly to assist President John Mahama hold on to power in 2012, using the false excuse of creating jobs for the young people of Ghana. Four years on, still, everyone in two young persons are unemployed.”

This was revealed by the Policy Advisor of the NPP, Mr. Boakye Agyarko, at a news conference at the party’s headquarters in Accra yesterday.

He pointed out that it was useful to recollect that the NPP’s National Youth Employment programme was launched on October 3rd, 2006.

According to him, by the time NPP left office on January 7, 2009 about 110,000 young people were employed under the scheme, earning incomes and not a single allegation of scandal was linked to the National Youth Employment Programme (NYEP) for two years.

He pointed out that the first innovative policy initiated by the NDC when it took office was to change the name from NYEP to GYEEDA, after which they proceeded to lay off all the 110,000 young Ghanaians under the NYEP.

“Yet, after spending an equivalent of nearly half a billion dollars, the NDC has not been able to employ more than 70,000 young Ghanaians under the scheme in eight years,” he added.

According to Mr. Agyarko, it was by this time in 2012 that hundreds of millions of Ghana Cedis were released for unbudgeted expenditure, including payments to Rlg Communications Ghana Limited, for distribution of laptops embossed with President Mahama’s campaign pictures.

The NPP policy advisor alleged that the amounts fraudulently abused under these so-called employment schemes went to companies with very close links to President Dramani Mahama from the womb of the AGAMS Group such as rLG, Craftpro and Asongtaba.

Some of the payments made to AGAMS, he mentioned, for instance, were laundered and rechanneled to fund campaign spending on billboards, newspaper, TV and radio adverts for the President and his party, the NDC.

“Indeed, such was the impunity used in abusing public funds that the benefiting media houses did not even bother to question why cheques from AGAMS were issued to them for payments of adverts done for the ruling party.

He said an illegal loan of GH¢50 million was also advanced to the AGAMS Group by GYEEDA.

Mr. Agyarko also mentioned that the Ghana National Education Coalition in 2013 complained about the fact that the laptop contract, sole-sourced to rLG, using a cheap Ubuntu software, was twice as expensive as other similar computers on the local retail market.

He indicated that GYEEDA, which replaced the National Youth Employment Programme of the NPP, was set up ostensibly to offer jobs for young Ghanaians.

“Instead, it became a conduit for looting state funds and funding the President’s 2012 campaign,” he averred.

This stament by Bishop Duncan Williams fell short of mentioning the president to stop his tribal campaign especially in the north,the president said same during the 2012 campaign and he's repeating it again in 2016 only directed to northerners why?if he comes to the southern regions he doesn't say that to them.If we were going to vote on tribal base just ask the president to tell us if Gonjas Ve numbers even in the northern region to make him president?and it's not as if he's responding to anybody,he's rather doing so thereby forcing his political opponents to respond in likewise manner to him.Our leaders,Chiefs,civil society groups including former president he claims re the only persons colifies to criticize him must come out and let aJohn Mahama know that he can't make such divisive comments and get away with it.This statements Ve gone to expose how empty the president is,he simply Ve no policies and a political message when it comes to the north and must be voted out to enjoy the loot he and many Ve stollen from this country's scanty resources.its very significant that out president can ignor all the serious problems and complains of Ghanaian and rather busy himself talking about what happens in another political party,how's this going to put food on our tables?what about the problems of corruption being fought by a senior and foundation member of his party Mr Martin Amidu who has exposed numerous corruption deals in the NDC?

It is a fact that some Ghanaians are living with some hallucination and illusion with Nana Akufo-Addo. Nana Akufo-Addo and Mahmudu Bawumia are fascists and that no Ghanaian should trust them with his life.

THE OTHER DAY CHARLOTTE OSEI WAS HEARD PRAYING ABOUT THE ELECTIONS. I HOPE SHE WOULD BACK HER PRAYERS WITH SINCERITY. LET THE WOMEN'S AGLOW CAL HER FOR SERIOUS TALK. HOW CAN YOU PRINT PINK SHEETS WITH NO SERIAL NUMBERS? SHE SHOULD MAKE SURE MAHAMA AND HIS COHORTS DO NOT PUT ANY PRESSURE ON. SHE MUST GET RID OF ANY DUBIOUS ATTEMPT BY NDC TO RIG THE ELECTIONS. HER PRAYERS AND THOSE OF OTHER PEOPLE WOULD BECOME NOTHING IF SHE SUCCUMBS TO PRESSURE. GHANAIANS ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE WATCHING CHARLOTTE OSEI AND HER EC OFFICERS. SHE SHOULD BE BOLD TO TELL IGP THAT IN MODERN SOCIETY, HE CANNOT SHUT DOWN ALL SOCIAL MEDIA. ANY ATTEMPT TO DO THAT POITS TO THE FACT THAT HE (IGP) AND NDC HAVE PLANNED TO RIG THE ELECTIONS.
