..... TRIBALIST, DEMAGOGUE, HATE-MONGER, AND A WAR-MONGER!
During the 2008 electioneering campaign, Brigadier Nunoo-Mensah gave a chilling and honest confession of how he would not feel safe nor even dare sleep with one eye closed should Nana Addo Danquah Akuffo Addo ever become a president of the republic of Ghana.
Well, amongst many factors, the electorate heard this clarion call, voted their conscience, and lo and behold, Nana AKUFFO Addo missed his life long dream by the whiskers.
Let's fast-forward to the year 2010: it would be remembered that at the centenary (100th year) celebration of Adisadel College, President John Evan Atta Mills, in his maiden speech, went out of his way to acknowledge the presence of Alan Kyeremanteng, his former classmate, and coincidentally, the arch-rival and opponent of Nana AKuffo Addo in the NPP Flag-bearership race.
Therein, President went as far to commend Alan Kyeremanteng for being "a gentleman" ever since he had known him as a student in Legon. Sadly enough, instead of NPP taking a queue from this kind gesture, the likes Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey rather distorted this harmless compliment that the president was lauding Alan K. because he knows he (Mills) could easily defeat Alan K.; therefore, Mills was rather showering praises upon Alan K as a way to lure the NPP congressional delegates into his political trap.
Now, President Mills has known Mr. Nana Akuffo Addo since their days as school- and football team -mates at the University of Ghana, Legon, yet Mills, like any other prominent personality in Ghana and even close affiliates, stops short at saying anything endearing or positive about this Nana Akuffo Addo character.
Though this Nana Akuffo Addo character has made several obnoxious statements in the past, his latest utterance might just happen to be the very last proverbial nail in the coffin of his ill-conceived ambition to be the president of the great republic of Ghana.
Accordingly,.... [The NPP Flag-bearer reiterated this during an address to party supporters in the Eastern Region on Tuesday February 9, where he said NPP supporters will match its political opponents boot for boot in 2012.
"They (NDC) have intentions to intimidate us (NPP) in 2012 because they believe that "we the Akans" are soft and cowards. If that is the thinking, then we shall see. At least during the Atiwa bye-election, "we showed a little" of [our colours] there” he said.] ...emphasis mine.
What Akuffo Addo and the NPP refuse to acknowledge is that Ghanaians are discerning.... And have matured a great deal from the years leading to the 2000 election, when Kuffour and the NPP employed their usual tribalist and the anti-Ewe, anti -non-Akan agenda to play on peoples' sensitivity in order to come to power.
First things first, enquiring minds want to know: If Nana Akuffo Addo and his NPP cannot even command more than 60% of the vote in the Eastern region -- his own back yard --does that mean that Akans only support the NPP and do not support the NDC in any significant way?
Need I mention the recent grand durbar that the Okyenhene singlehandedly thrown in honour of Hon. Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo for the massive work that he and the NDC has undertaken in the Eastern Region in just a matter of two short years? ...where the emotional, speechless Okyenhene stopped short of saying that the NDC has done more in two years than the Ashanti-controlled then-NPP has dome for them in Eight very long years?
Need I mention the open-secret that the Asantehene of all people is a dye-in-the-wool NDCian, and stands as one of the biggest donors of the NDC, and is never ashamed to proclaim himself, defying all protocols, as the biggest fanatic of JJ Rawlings, founder and spiritual leader of the NDC, and that of 'modern' Ghana?
Need I mention the fact that the Central Region was won decisively by the NDC and is a region that is fast becoming an NDC stronghold?
I have said it over and over again la: this Nana Akuffo Addo character can NEVER become a president la....
Look at all these nefarious tactics that this NPP losers are ready to employ just to come back to power; One unguarded statement after the other --exhibiting their desperation and frustration over the herculean task of reversing the irreversible.
When Akuffo re-emerged as the flag-bearer of the NPP, in fact, my heart sank; not for the remotest possibility of him winning the next election, but rather for the poor, unsuspecting, innocent NPP souls/lives that stand to be wasted or put in harm's way in the quest of this 'crazy and derange psychopath-cum-sociopath' to become what he is simply not destined to be. In deed, my heart bleeds profusely for these poor souls.
It would not be surprising that they themselves would kill their own, recklessly, just to make another unfounded allegation of fraud and brutality in the next election. They did it during the Kume Preko demonstrations in the late nineties when in opposition, and why wouldn't they do it again?
These were are very group of people who tried to transport dead bodies from the mortuaries in Accra to the Volta Region (an NDC stronghold) just to support their allegations of brutality and human right abuse so as to put an injunction on the release of electoral results that they knew they had long lost.
Ghanaians can still recall, quite vividly, how members of the then ruling NPP were throwing tantrum and scrambling senselessly over an election that they never thought a single in a life that they could lose. Ghanaians would also so vividly recall how the ENTIRE NPP (in the person of Madam Christine Churcher) crawled on their knees begging the good people of Cape Coast forgiveness in the run-up to second rounds of the 2008 election.
Lastly, this most recent tribalistic/ethnocentric rant lends more credence to the fact that NANA AKUFFO ADDO IS SIMPLY NOT A LEADER. HE IS NOTHING BUT A DEMAGOGUE.
What is a demagogue?
1 : a leader who makes use of popular prejudices and false claims and promises in order to gain power. ( merriam-Webster)
2. demagoguery ( /?d?m?????ri/[2]) (Ancient Greek: ?????????, from ????? d?mos "people" and ????? agein "to lead") is a strategy for gaining political power by appealing to the prejudices, emotions, fears and expectations of the public—typically via impassioned rhetoric and propaganda, and often using nationalist, populist or religious themes. (wikipedia.com)
Now, Can that be any farther from the truth? Your guess is as good as mine.
One can only imagine the 'suffer-suffer' that the great Kwame Nkrumah suffered from 1949 to February 24,1966 when these terrorists and scallywags/neo-colonialists were in opposition.
This tribalist rantings being just 'a little/tiny bit of their true colours' that to goes a long way to VINDICATE Kwame Nkrumah .... And why the likes of JB DANQUAH had to die in jail. ( doyens of democracy, my left foot.......... in their stinking asssssses!)
What a shame!!!!
HEY, THE BNI AND NATIONAL SECURITY BETTER SUMMONS /REPRIMAND THIS CRAZY BASTARD FONDLY CALLED " NANA GBAGBO --NANA GANJAA --NANA BOTTOMS --NANA COCAINE -NANA ALL DIE BE DIE --AKUFFO ADDO"....BEFORE SOME OF US TAKE MATTERS INTO OWN HANDS AND MAKE A CITIZEN'S ARREST AND BITCH-SLAP PIMP-SLAP THIS GOD-FORSAKEN, HOPELESS LOSER O, Hmmmm!!!
