We told you it is Nana Akufo-Addo all the way

Alert Ghana tells Katakyie – We told you it is Nana Akufo-Addo all the way

By: Fadi Dabbousi

1. Katakyie, come again, did you say Alan Kyeremanteng maximised the 5 accreditation cards given him to attend the election petition hearing at the SC? Wow, that is a confirmation that Alan lied when he said on air, to the hearing of all, that he was unable to attend court other than the last couple of times because he was not given an accreditation, being sidelined by Akufo-Addo. So he was given five in lieu of the one that I, initially, thought it was? When I wrote a rebuttal and stated that he was given one, some of your comrades, as usual, insulted me. Thank you for confirming that Alan is indeed FAKE just as his new set up with you in it, GAKE.

2. You stated in your article captioned “Alan is the Best bet for the NPP in 2016”. Word for word, you said “Because of his humility, posture, and charisma, most NDC members are rooting for him to take over from Mahama”. Thank you for confirming that he is not an NPP loyalist but an opportunist; that he is a traitor and betrayer of the trust of the NPP electorate; that he is, really, someone who will, eventually, take Ghanaians for a ride. These are your hidden assertions exposed by your statement above; I am just expatiating on your delivery. Thank you again for confirming my earlier submissions to be true.
3. As an ambassador, the least he could have done were the few achievements that you stated and, sadly, they are woefully inadequate to rely upon as a score sheet for someone dying to be a President.
4. Then you asserted categorically that, “Alan's personality traits - humility, charisma, gentility, honesty, etc, could attract floating votes. His credibility and competence make him a better candidate than Mahama. Alan can maximise votes from both Central and Ashanti Regions because of his mixed ancestry.”
You are drawing a comparison between Alan and Mahama when you should be doing same between him and Nana Akufo-Addo. This is a clear indication that your message is targeted more at the NDC delegates than it is at the NPP and that is a misplaced priority because the primaries is an NPP thing; it has nothing to do with the NDC, hence my belief that your lot is sleeping with the enemy. My problem is that you still do not understand the trends of floating voters. What does it take to make you see that the vast majority of non-NPP electorate have even joined in the mantra, “NO NANA NO VOTE”? Even in Alan’s land of ancestry, the unprecedented endorsement of Nana Akufo-Addo shook the very foundations of colossal figures in Ghanaian politics.
Besides, what credibility are you talking about? Someone who can come on air and, blatantly, lie to Ghanaians about unfounded issues in a deliberate attempt to bamboozle the electorate has not credibility to write home about. This is a behavioural trait that needs repair because he has damaged it, almost irredeemably, with your unruly help.
I, really, am saddened that Alan is going to suffer a demoralising and dehumanising defeat. I so wish for him to keep his last trump card for a future endeavour. This is for Ohene Ntow; tell Alan to step aside to avoid the humiliation of such a gargantuan defeat. It seems you are giving him the wrong advice in order to continue syphoning his money. That to me is selfishness when people like us use our own resources to get work done for the party.
5. You are praying the delegates give Alan their endorsement but same has already being given Nana Akufo-Addo. The die is cast and the WORD is revealed, inshallah, “NO NANA NO VOTE”. Ashanti Region declared, unanimously, that this is Nana’s time. Chairman Wontumi stated, unequivocally, that when the results of the primaries are announced, the losers should not misconstrue the message as one of hate. In fact, it just is not their time, but when theirs is nigh, we will lend our support.
So I am saying to all that this is the time to join the bandwagon of imminent success. Defeat is staring all, including the NDC, in the face, for the NANA momentum has picked up and will annihilate all in its wake.
I have told you not to include our Oldman, John Agyekum Kufour, in your write ups because it may send an erroneous signal that he is supporting Alan against Nana, which is an absolute fallacy, and I so do repeat! We all love JAK; he is exhibiting neutrality so that he does not get tainted with the mud-slinging that you have adopted as a propaganda strategy.
