When a nation is compelled by crackheads and nutjobs to experience autocratic and totalitarian systems of government it learns to appreciate the beauty of Democracy when it comes into contact with it. Apart from Nkrumah, Rawlings and a couple of military adventurers, all our presidents have been lovers of western style democracy . The NDC which was born out of violence, envy, deception and lies has never been able to embrace democracy in its fulness.
Since independence the liberation of civil society from the suffocating grip of the state has been the ideological project of ghanaian liberals. A range of foreign donors including Western governments, multilateral agencies and NGOs have sent their assistance to promote democratization and helped to develop civil society initiatives. They channelled the assistance through democracy,human rights and governance programs.
Rawlings was unimpressed with the overtures and dug in his heels as local democracy advocacy groups increased their demands for a speedy return to the democratization and liberalization process.The IMF, sensing that Rawlings was in no mood to listen to the voices coming from within, imposed harsh economic sanctions on Ghana.He had no choice but to cave in to liberals and international donor agencies demands.The IMF action had led to the drying of the development partners' assistance wells. On May 18, 1992 Rawlings lifted the ban on politics and democracy.
Later he spoke publicly about his aversion to democracy citing its inhibitive nature as his reason.
The NDC as a party is yet to come to terms with the new political dispensation.The on-going petition at the Supreme Court is one thing they loathe with a passion. Democracy is anathema to the general body of NDC supporters.

Ghana is still sinking: Ghana is in total mess.
Ghana is still in the woods grappling and crying for: --- good governance, systematic development, discipline, sound and logical economic order, good use of our resources; stoppage of wanton dissipation of our resources
NDC, mischievous, wicked and cheats as they are still think
: NPP in power for just 14 years have not done well and that
: NPP are the cause of Ghana’s woes and that
: NDC in power for 42 years are still better.--------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Surprisingly, the evidence, the facts are all negative against NDC who have monopolised power for all these years.
NDC are dishonest and political cheats. NDC are political loudmouths who can’t perform.
It seems NDC are thriving and capitalizing on the age long deep-seated Anti-Ashanti sentiments in the body politic to cling to power.
NDC are just tribal jingoists . NDC are divisive.
They want the power but they can’t govern. They cant think. They have no vision.
Ghana is doomed. Ghana is a gloom. Ghana is suffering.
