'If I can’t succeed, everyone else must fail' – The mentality of NDC

From my many years of close observation of NDC as a political party, I can say without prejudice that both the leaders and a greater number of their members do believe in, and openly demonstrate, the character of, “if I can’t succeed, everyone else must fail”.

Within the very first month of assumption of power by Nana Akufo-Addo as president of Ghana and NPP as the ruling party, in January 2017, the NDC put into activation all their “pull him down” devices intended for causing the failure of the president and his government.

They turbocharged their maliciously established propaganda machine; the propaganda secretary and his outfit to proceed on a mission of destructive criticisms of President Akufo-Addo and his infant NPP government with the intent to cause public disaffection for them to culminate in their failure.

They constantly fabricated lies upon lies about the president to feed to the public, all with the ulterior motive of getting him out of power to be replaced by their John Dramani Mahama and the NDC party.

Is it not irresponsible for anyone wishing to serve their nation to behave as the NDC does, always sabotaging and lying about their political opponents?

Despite Ghana practising a multi-party system of government, thus, democracy, should the political parties fervently engage themselves in “pull him down” activities aimed at bringing down the president and the political party in government as is constantly being done by the NDC?

During former President John Agyekum Kufuor’s regime, the chronically sick and evil-minded NDC attacked him without ceasing, alleging that he had engaged in illicit or extramarital affairs with Gizzelle Yadji, a Colombian woman, resulting in the birth of twins to him.

They had malevolently devised that allegation to not only distract the president from focusing on delivering on his promises to the nation but to court public disaffection for him. How evil could the NDC be?

It had to take Allotey Jacobs, once an NDC Central Regional Chairman, to inform the nation that the allegation of illicit sexual affairs against President Kufuor was false. It was only a fabrication to incite the public against the president to bring him down. He confessed to this assertion when he went to the former president’s house to beg for forgiveness for sinning against him when he started getting haunted by his guilty conscience.

What about NDC presidential candidate John Mahama mobilizing the party with the support of Asiedu Nketiah, Sammy Gyamfi, and other equal liars, to embark on nationwide public demonstrations claiming the Chair of the Electoral Commission had rigged the presidential election 2020 for President Akufo-Addo?

Was it not later to be revealed by Asiedu Nketiah that the NDC had not any collated results of their own to prove that Mahama had won the election hence their claim to have won the election was false?

The fact NDC could not win the election to be the head they always aspired to be, but lost to become the tail, they will foment troubles for President Nana Akufo-Addo and his government all the time.

Ghanaians, please see the NDC and John Mahama as intrinsic liars and, subsequently, misfits to rule Ghana.

In the Western white man’s land, opposition parties do support the ruling government on policies and programmes of collective benefits to the nation and criticize, but constructively, on policies they see otherwise.

However, they always make their alternative solutions known, unlike in Ghana where the NDC is found to always criticize blindly for their parochial selfish interests.

Fellow Ghanaians, NDC, and John Mahama are not credible to rule Ghana, take it from me. They only desire to come to power to continue with the corrupt and myopic practices that are of no benefit to the country but themselves.

Stay tuned for more to come from the writer, the proud and audacious son of Kumawu/Asiampa soil who does not suffer fools kindly.
