, Pathetic And Unfortunate.
The so called New Patriotic Party (NPP) should be planning towards another Congress by now to elect a new flag bearer, but because they are so myopic, naive and (to borrow the phrase of Richard Quashigah) wearing a double mask, they don’t see anything wrong with the sexual harassment by Nana Akufo-Addo on the GBC make-up artist. It is unfortunate and shameful that Nana Akufo-Addo is still the flag bearer of the NPP. If it were to be in the western part of the world, not only will he step down as the flag bearer, but also face charges for sexual harassment which will eventually land him in jail.
I find it very difficult to understand people who try all possible means to defend the truth with blatant lies. The NPP said the tape is fake. Awurade Nyankopon, Ataa Na Nyomo, Mawu Ga, Allah,……. Which other local language should I use? How on earth the NPP could be defending this criminal and atrocious act by their flag bearer when he (Nana Addo) has not come out to deny the allegation. This is an abomination. To fondle another man’s wife on the job to the extent of touching her breast is an abominable act. My fellow Ghanaians, let me put this question to you. I don’t need an answer anyway. “If Nana Akufo-Addo is brave enough to sexually harass a female staff at GBC, what happens to the female staff working directly under him?” In as much as we have institutions like WAJU and Ministry of Women Affairs, I think the President should also create a Ministry for Sexual Harassment to deal with shameless people like Nana Akufo-Addo.
Hmmmm, the NPP said the tape is fake Ooooooo. They are defending but still, their defense holds no water. It is like pouring a bucket of water into a woven basket. They even encouraged the woman to come out and deny the allegation but the woman being very foolish, did not watch the tape before coming out to deny the allegation. She is a big disgrace to womanhood and if I were her husband, I will send her packing.
In fact, I watched the clip severally and nothing showed it was faked. I am an IT personnel and I know when a tape is manipulated. Even some of my colleagues confirmed that it was genuine. In any case, I would like to put some few questions to my fellow Narcotic Pushers Party (NPP).
1. Looking at the tape, was that the GBC make-up room or not? 2. The settings of the room, is it GBC or Nana Addo’s make-up room? 3. Is the lady a GBC staff or not? 4. Was there a time that Nana Addo went to GBC make-up room?
These are questions the NPP should be asking themselves and their flag bearer before jumping to his defense.
You know, I sometimes become flabbergasted when I hear these NPP people talk, as if they are the most knowledgeable and wise people not only in Ghana but on earth. They sound very sacrosanct as if they are infallible, without blemish. Meanwhile, they are worse of the creature called Lucifer in their deeds, words and thought.
In fact, I can’t imagine Nana Akufo-Addo as president of Ghana. His stature does not befit that of a president. His pedigree is nothing to write home about. His performance is very abysmal. His human relation is woeful. I can go on and on and on. But all I am saying is that, Nana Akufo-Addo will go down the drain come Dec. 2012. The National Democratic Congress (NDC) will organize a gargantuan political send off party for Nana Akufo-Addo but that will be at the Accra Zoo because that is where the Elephant belong.
My candid advice to the NPP is that, if they want to come to power, then they should be heading for a new congress by now to elect a new flag bearer. But I know they will not listen to me because of their short sightedness. One more thing for the NPP. The NDC has many Johns and since they (NPP) don’t have the Johns, it will be difficult for them to come to power. I know one so called “Sir John” but that one is very fake and would not even dream of leading the NPP as flag bearer.
NDC ALL THE WAY. EYE ZU, EYE ZA, EYE ZAZU
