We all know this man is a disciplinarian that is why he is feared by both NDC some of his own party stalwarts. Nana will not fail if he allows the independent prosecutor to have power to prosecute whoever he suspects, be it Nana's own family.

If truth be told, the real saboteurs in Ghana politics are the public accountants, public auditors, the Chief Directors of the various ministeries, customs, national rvenue collectors, and other government institutions, even including those working at the background unnoticed. These groups of people have always been there and will always be there as change of goverments takes place. Nana must allow the independent prosecutor to investigate all of them. If Nana were to deal with those mentioned above, half the battle of corruption would have been won, for it is these people who collects bribes, steal and do shady deals at the expense of or to the detriment of the ruling government. Afterwards, eyes must be on them as they discharge their duties. Let me say that these criminals will look for ways and means to outwit surveillance, so Nana must find ways to outsmart them for it is in their DNA. Start jailing them in tribunals set up by the independent prosecutor, and it will serve as a deterrence. Next, Nana must make sure that the annual one million dollar or four million Ghana cedis that will be allocated to each constituency is felt by each constituency. Government must tell the whole nation those who are going to disburse the fund so that the constituents will know them and hold them accountable. Otherwise, constituencies will hold you corrupt if the fund is not properly supervised. Nana must discourage committees that are set only to 'chop' the money given to the constituencies. Next, concerning the one-district-one factory agenda, Nana must give to those private entrepreneurs, who are going to partner them, tax free incentives as they import their machinery into the country. In addition, Nana must reduce the tax they are supposed to pay annually to the bearest minimum, and within two years almost all these factories will spring up. On the one-village-one-irrigation dam agenda in the north if constructed, must be linked to motorable roads to cart the food to where they can be assessed easily so that the north will be our food basket. We can learn from Ivory Coast who are now doing well in agriculture for they are not endowed more than Ghana. If Ivory Coast can do it, why not Ghana? We must ask them how they did it by sending personnel to understudy them. If truth be told, all the promises are doable in record time if the disbursers will do it selflessly. Long live Nana, long live Ghana.

This is the second election in Ghana which was free and fair. Agyekum and nana's time. Nkurma, jj, mils and maham were very bad presidents. since 1957 this is the second time we are going to have good president.

Ghanaians are a very fastidious people and Akufo Addo has complicated things by raising the expectations of Ghanaians through the roof while campaigning. My own sense is that he will certainly fall short of the impatience of Ghanaians in delivering. This will definitely stress the new president and affect his already frail health which he is trying to hide. Cardiovascular, kidney, and cancer issues become very aggressive with daily stress. At some point if the going gets too tough, as it definitely will, Akufo Addo should not try to play a hero as his Legon mate Prez. Atta Mills did, but retire to the comfort of his family and let the younger Bawumia take over. IN A SENSE, THE NORTHENERS WILL COME BACK AGAIN.
