Columnist: Boateng, Kwame Appiah

Akufo-Addo should tap Elizabeth Ohene

...as "First Female Vice President" to unite Ghana

Former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate and Leader of the Ghanaians Abroad Coalition, "Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah Boateng (KWAME MAYOR) is publicly pleading with 2008 NPP's Flagbearer, Nana Akufo-Addo to appoint Hon. Ms. Elizabeth Ohene, a Minister of State, to become Ghana's "First Female Vice-President" and help position the "Yaa Asantewaa" or "Juan of Arc look-alike" to become "Ghana's First Female President" in order to unite the Country; empower Ghanaian Women, and permanently cement peace, especially between Akans and Ewes.

IN ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT, the renowned Political Strategist and a Civil Rights Legend in his own right who is on record for publicly congratulating Nana Akufo-Addo on his election victory, expressed optimism on his popular Website : WWW.KwameforPresident.Com that Nana Akufo-Addo would be his own man and not allow himself to be dictated to by President Kufuor and Pro-Kufuor's forces - adding : "unlike His Excellency President John Agyekum Kufuor who treated me with extraordinary injustice after exploiting my strategic ideas which have become Monumental in Ghana, I can form an Alliance and work amicably with Nana Akufo-Addo to win the 2008 elections".

" For the sake of the Supreme Interest of Ghana, I am willing to abandon my presidential ambition at this time !!! - in order to concentrate on helping to achieve permanent peace and tranquility in the Country", said the Politician who has always put the Nation's interest first !!!.

"Kwame Mayor" is already a Political Legend in Ghana's Politial Circles and an International Political Star", noted the Politician.

"He is willing to join forces with an Independent Thinker, Self-Assured and a true Democrat like Nana Akufo-Addo to unite the Nation, now that His Excellency President Kufuor has (symbolically) been defeated in the just ended NPP Congress.

"If Nana Akofo-Addo is interested in my Peace offer and accept my Olive Branch, we can work as (Democratic Allies)" !!!, said the Iconic Freedom Fighter who was raised in both CPP and UP environment, with his Father an un-compromising Nkrumahist and paternal uncle, Ghana's Great Politician and Legendary Freedom Fighter, Mr. Joe Appiah, a prominent member of the U.P - Danquah / Busia-Dombo Tradition.

The Politician with Muhammad Ali's rhetorics, who has for years battled the Monumental injustices committed against him by the ruling government of His Excellency, President Kufuor which again, has systematically stolen his ideas without giving him any Credit, advised Nana Akufo-Addo to be his own Man and refuse any (covert) and (overt) attempts by President Kufuor's Forces to influence him (Nana Akufo-Addo) and induce him to continue President Kufuor's legacy of oppressing and persecuting the Larger-than-Life "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor - (just because of his Trade Mark Political Fearlessness; Independent Thinking and Intellectual Endowment !!!.)

The Politician said : "It should be noted that "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor correctly predicted that (either) Alan Kyerematen, Nana Akufo-Addo or Addo Kufuor would emerge as the 2008 NPP's Flagbearer.

"President Kufuor and his henchmen like Hon. Kwadwo Mpiani would not be able to exert influence on Nana Akufo-Addo to continue to persecute me since Nana Akufo-Addo is expected to be his own Man" !!!, said the Non-Violent (Peaceful) Politician.

"President Kufuor should make amends before he leaves office because he has left a legacy of committing "Cruel and Unusual punishment" against some of his political opponents, especially "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor whom he paid with extraordinary injustice - as a reward to the "Mayor's kindness of helping him during the days of NPP-CPP Alliance.

"Nana Akufo-Addo has a choice : Either to utilize the un-disputable talents of "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor, the gifted Politician whose strategic ideas have become Monumental in Ghana or loose him to become the first Asante Politician to lead NDC Camp --- (on condition that former President Jerry John Rawlings apologises to the Nation for the cowardly and callous executions of the former Heads of State and Army Generals such as the brave Okatakyie Akwasi Amankwa Afrifa and the beloved Real Admiral Amedume) - or in the most ideal way, "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor will win the Presidency on his own merit.

"The ball is in the corner of Nana Akufo-Addo, said the Politician who says that unlike the greediness, selfishness and callousness of President Kufuor, he can work with Nana Akufo-Addo" - noting that never before in the history of Asante Kingdom has an Asante (President Kufuor) exhibited Great Injustice against his fellow Asante or more importantly, fellow Ghanaian - "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor - the Great Grandson of Asante Adonteng Puduo War Generals and Royals - an African brother !!! - just because "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor is intellectually sophisticated even before the eyes of America, a Super Power and for this, the Political Establishments in Ghana fear him on the grounds that [Knowledge is Power] !!!, "Osagyefo" echoed the suspicions of many Ghanaians.

" I refuse to sell my Conscience in the course of helping to rebuild Ghana !!!", said "Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah, whose Paternal Uncle, Ghana's Great Politician, (Mr. Joe Appiah who was the husband of Mrs. Peggy Appiah from the Queen's Royal Family of England) exhibited the [same] rare Consciousness, Morality and Ethics !!!.

" Even if Nana Akufo-Addo extends an invitation to me, I will not act like Dr. Nduom who became deaf, blind and dump and saw nothing wrong under President Kufuor's NPP's administration when he accepted Ministerial appointments - only to deceive Ghanaians that he can "hear, see and talk" after all !!! - after he and pro-Kufuor's forces "hijacked" the Convention People's Party (CPP), thus making it an NPP's Satellite Party", said the Iconic Politician and a Civil Rights legend in his own right who enjoys telling the truth as it is, and nothing but the truth !!!.

Meanwhile, "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor has publicly declared that he is the Greatest Politician of all time, and as the year 2007 staggers to the end of the shore, the World's most fearless and Courageous Man has also proclaimed himself as "Ghana's Man of the Year !!!" and "Africa's Second Man of the Millennium" - next after Ghana's first President, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

The Politician, with the same pretty face as the legendary Muhammad Ali, the Greatest Boxer of all time, noted on his Presidential Campaign Website : WWW.KwameforPresident.Com that he deserves to have been nominated as Ghana's Man of the Year long time ago had it not been "Black Man's jealousies against their own kind, amid insecurities, ignorance and sheer wickedness".

" We have no right to blame the White Man since we are cruel to our own kind", said the "People's Politician" whose Monumental ideas have always been exploited by the ruling President Kufuor's government without being given any credit.
