Plain and simple NDC is not a political party but the megaphone of a hegemony/tribalism treacherous insidious movement of Ewes Northerners and haters/traitors of the Akan. They wooed and deceived the left wing aspirations and heritage of the Akan people but installing a few naive genuine patriots or impeccable characters like Mills to front their true criminal genocide agenda. Any nation that allows murder of the leaders to go unpunished no matter the lying propaganda justification is doomed to failure and that is a fact of history , NDC has continuously found it necessary to murder all Akan leaders starting from Kotoka's wickedness, to Acheampong and now Mills. We Akans can not call these Ewes and Northerners brothers if their most intimate desires is our destruction stemming from deep pathological hate and is manifested in their style of govt which has always been very destructive and retrogressive , be it the buga buga rawlings or the family and friends corruption/looting of Mahama. We thank Akans of the left wing inclination for showing their support to remove this criminal mafia by not excising their right not to vote and therefore leaving the NDC high and dry.They know the Akans are half right wing and the other half left wing so their calculation election engineering required that they stick to the hegemony of the Ewes and fantical islamic discrimination mixed with tribalism of the northerners and they would win hands down every election, little did they know that the ideological left wing of the Fanti speaking people and the Brong Ahafo are far more sophisticated and can not be fooled by no one forever. Next year we will see and witness the true extent of the destruction and expose with real proofs the colonization by Ewes and Northerners of the wealth of the Akans . Justice should be enforced not these fake laws that have so many loop holes that true justice in the interest of the people is elusive. We witness how thew Mahama family now have control of all natural resources including reserves of Bauxite and iron ore so frustrated and sabotaged every effort at industrialization and construction of railway networks as they did not want the people to get wealthy by adding value and exporting . Its easier to manipulate ignorant illiterate impoverished people. They snear scoff and laugh as they know these and other impediments and obstacles will seriously slow down NPP's deep desire to secure a true development for our people , yes the battle goes on and the only way is to cut these pepeni/ayigbe out of our country so we gain new independence.

Notwithstanding, thanks all Ghanaians who saw there was a need to disgraced him by making him one term president in the fourth republic. Ex caretaker president. Shameless emergency president. Kanana Mahama. He has lost weight too much. He can drink to death now. He thought Ghanaians are fools to vote for him again to come and steal, kill and speak nonsense.

The almost everybody in the US is a drunkard since we all carry such flasks for our coffees, teas and sodas. You people should know where politics end. Mahama is somebody's father, uncle, husband, grandfather etc. When politics is over, he is much more respectable even as an alcoholic than a lot of you guys who insult him on social media daily. At least, if you cannot be honorable in defeat, you should learn to be gracious in victory. It is a nice thing. Try it

As we anxiously await the next president to reach the Oval Office, the folks at UnderTheLabel and InsideGov teamed up to find out the favorite alcoholic drink of every U.S. president in history.

Thanks to journalist Mark Will-Weber's book, "Mint Juleps with Teddy Roosevelt: The Complete History of Presidential Drinking," and article for the New York Post, we have a reliable source pegging each president's drink of choice. (We'll be citing Will-Weber throughout.)

Not every president had strong ties to an alcoholic beverage — in fact, one actually pushed for a dry White House during his time in office — but the majority of U.S. presidents seemed to have an affinity toward booze.

When you see how the stresses of being commander in chief aged President Barack Obama, it's no surprise many presidents needed a stiff drink at the end (or beginning) of the day.

These flasks are common in here in the west where people keep their drinks warm. I now see where the 'new things' (modern infrastructure) Mahama tried to introduce into Ghana did not 'convince' some people. I think the level of ignorance and illiteracy in Ghana is too alarming. I hope Nana will be able to change this with his free education policy. Mahama was a step ahead of us just like Nkrumah. I have five of those flask for different drinks that I carry to my office. Please Adoryea, educate yourself!

Only an idiot would think that's whisky anyone educated knows that it's a thermos to keep tea or coffee warm. Anyone who believes it's alcohol is probably on cocaine like your new president

Is there anything wrong with drinking whisky? The last time I checked, whisky is not a banned 'substance' in Ghana. Please grow up.

You must be an absolute fool to believe in that stupid article. Did you not realise how it just doesn't make sense that even a person from the NPP would not go to a US Ambassador to make such claims? Why the US Ambassador? And asking him to intervene? How would he do that?? After asking these commonsensical questions, at becomes obvious to even the most desperately stupid that it all just doesn't make sense, period.

A whiskey flask is shaped like a small whiskey bottle with flat sides and made with metal. This is not a whiskey flask. Whiskey flask fits a jacket pocket.
