Short wants to bring his divide and rule tactics to the national level? He Is harvesting what he has not sown in the UWR; he has no hand in the winning of all the NPP seats in UWR

@ Boure, I agree with you totally. The guy is a bully who succeeded in demoralizing party faithfuls in the Upper West Region. I bet Short will not get 10% of Upper West votes in his quest to be national chairman because we know he can only destroy NPP with his autocratic attitude.

Freedom of speech allows each of us his say. But shouldn't you, Yakubu Mahama, back what you say? A demoralised (regional) party goes on to win five seats. For real? If an adult is a child or behaves like one, it isn't out of place for an adult to set the child straight. If you're saying that Short - Alhaji Short for you - doesn't suffer fools gladly, I ask you, why should he? Moreover, there's a world of difference between being autocratic and being adult with children. If you have nothing to say, please don't say it here. Besides, this 'pull him down' antic is lame, really lame. Grow up!

Short is not only using the divide and tactics, but is also tribalistic as Akuffo himself.A region that is made up different tribes, short thought it right to recommend his relatives for the positions of Regional Minister and the Deputy. In terms of numbers, are the Waalas more than the Dagaabas, Sissalas or the Brifos? Those two appointments are skewed. What did Short do to win the 4 Seats? Short resides in Wa constituency will NPP not win there? Give us a break!! A number of us travelled outside the region to our constituencies to vote because we wanted change. He should not credit himself with that which he does not deserve. 2020 is by the corner. Don't take electorates for a right.

You should not turn things round coz some of u did not get your selfish way through. Short is committed and competent to steer the affairs of the party when given the nud. He did a lot to put the party at the stage that it is now. Let's support him, your worse brother on the thrown is better than your best friend. Think of this.

Before he became regional chairman has upper west ever won the wa central seat?
You're talking as if others did and he couldn't.
He's a regional chairman so he works throughput the region.
The man and his other executives weren't sleeping before the election.
Don't say what you don't know.
Before him it was just a seat
He moved to 3,O and historically more seats than ever this recent election.
He's not crediting himself.People who know politics are those doing it.

Boure, you say Short has no hand in the winning of all the NPP seats in the UWR - how's that? You appear to be talking out of your arse by saying he's harvesting where he has not sown. How so? The man has been the regional chairman for three consecutive terms. And his hands-on leadership from the front and his output has not been in question. So your suggestions appears to be both false and unfounded and smack of disingenuity or some personal malice. You should be quiet if you cannot support the assertions you make.

In 2012 he won no seat, and the NPP went on to lose the election. In 2016 Alhaji Short won 5 seats in the Upper West region, and the NPP totally and completely wiped the floor with the NDC. How about that? Does the juxtapositioning of the two facts trigger a reasoning in you? I'm sure it doesn't; so I'll reason for you: that juxtaposition has one interpretation and one interpretation only: where Alhaji Short falls, the NPP falls; where Alhaji Short triumphs, the NPP triumphs. Get that? I doubt it. Pity. The other thing is: if you want to traduce someone, then you should do so in a clever way - with assertions which look like the truth. You don't malign a public figure with easy lies which don't need cross-checking to wash off. A regional chairman did not campaign in the respective constituencies in his region? You should be ashamed of yourself for telling porkies. If you live in the Upper West region and you were present in the Upper West region from July to December in 2016 and you followed/watched the political activity, you could not and you cannot now come to any but one conclusion: the aptitude and the attitude of the NPP Regional Chairman Alhaji Short COMPELLED victory in the various constituencies and the stellar performance of the NPP in the region. Pity you're unable to figure that.

This isn't going to be a sequel to the Apology Drama. I am not NPP have never voted for NPP, but I know short and know what he has done for NPP and against us. Loyalty, as Nana Additional himself put it "loyalty before competence", is what drives Alhaji Short through his three terms. Drawing distinctions between Short and others based on nothing but geographical location and facial scarification is not detrimental to Alhaji Short, but to the NPP.
When a natural leader emergers, all wise men do is to offer to offer their support, not vitrolics.
