In the quietness of time, while commemorating, with great joy, one year of Ghana’s second Independence, let us as a family pause and ask ourselves the right questions and endeavour to answer them right without picking on people.

How have the soldiers that stood on the battlefront for the overwhelming victory been catered for?

What is the state of their hopefulness—that even without appointments, they would benefit from the resources (human and/or capital) they invested in that needed warfare?

What is their value in the Party’s ecosystem?

Well…I WRITE FOR THE “CREATIVES FOR NDC”: those who with their little or ‘restricted’ finances and BIG or small fame/popularity walked the streets of Ghana campaigning for the change we have now. Those who didn’t run for positions but campaigned for the sector for the love of the party, President (then candidate), country and prayer to see the sector grow?

The simple question during the commemoration of the 1-year anniversary of the NDC 2024 Elections victory is……

“Who has taken the pain to even give them the ‘befitting’ audience—towards seeing to it that AS THE PRESIDENT DESIRES, the betterment of creatives/artists is experienced by them?

Creatives who stood with the party suffered victimization in the last eight years and the irony is that their party is in power and STILL, they’re in opposition—as those (NPP creatives) who enjoyed during the past 8 years for affiliating to the NPP have broken their 8. Sad situation.

In the corridors of most NDC creatives are whispers of disappointment and sorrows. Grand disappointment. No one REGARDS them. They have to force themselves to be noticed. SAD REALITY!

What is the plan to assist the NDC Creatives towards building them for the next elections? Or it is the case again that “after elections we are all Ghanaians”?

Hmmmmmm.

Anyways, it is just too early to have NDC Creatives murmur in regret for sacrificing their little earned fame and time and resources to campaign only to be treated as Second class Party members.

For me, and in all sincerity one group of people to be easily assisted to help others are the creatives; it doesn’t take much to do so. It takes simple ideas, grand plans, little resources and actions to do it.

1 year is dead. After next year, the ‘Market season’ begins. The retailers that have no relevance today, time would remind all of their relevance at that time of the ‘Marketing Season’.

Some of us are surviving the bile and well braced for it but true is; MAJORITY can’t wrap their heads around it. If this situation is left to run its natural course, then we should be magnanimous in mocking the NPP and rather learn the art of surviving their present as our immediate future.

The ground is very slippery. Friction REQUIRED!

The truth is bitter and very difficult to tell ourselves; but if we don’t tell it to ourselves, who would?

The Creatives for NDC have been ABANDONED even by their own. It is WORRISOME.
