There is a common saying that goes like '' too much of everything is bad'' and I have said this time without number that if you seek to impress people with words, try to be concise, try to be fair, try to be honest and do not talk too much.
Despite the claims of the minister of agriculture Fiifi Kwetey, that occupy Ghana are being hypocritical and a loyalist to NPP, GhanaIans have already taken a notice of the one sided nature of occupy Ghana, Think thank Imaani or whatnever they call themselves, it was so clear the way Caseley Hayford , Franklin Kudjo and others do their analysis discrediting government even when they have to give credit to the ruling party, any neutral minded person can easely tell. They pretend to be neutral but their actions tells it all. Now the minister has done what is expected of the ruling party Ndc, that is to make the whole Ghana know that they Ndc know what those pro Npp groups are and are operating under the pretence of pressure groups, and then allow the public judgment hung on their neck, Occupy Ghana, imaani,
In the first place when accusations are leveled against you, the best thing to do is to remain silent and let your further actions prove otherwise, but when you are desperate to defend or retaliate it intensifies the belief in what you have been accused of, and to talk too much worsens your case, noting that the more you say, the more common you become and less in control, and you will be likely to say something banal or be bias when dealing with two opposing sides, and you need no one to tell you you are opening your self for attacks, I mean to be an easy target.Caseley unlike Franklin who is bias in his financial analysis talks less and that makes it looks like he has been fair. Franklin Kudjo does the opposite.
Wise people do not take side, they rather remain neutral and that makes you bigger than the two sides, hitting the head of one side against the other, then sit back watching them attack each other and in the process reveal some important informations that will make you seem more brilliant than both parties while you remain neutral.
Once you have open your self for an attack, you are vulnerable and would be attacked from all the corners.
After General mosquito Came out and praise them and warned against those attacking them, Sam George, the NDC activist took them to the cleanest, and it will not end there as every other individual or group will find it easy to hit you in the head.
People are yet to dig deep into Franklin Kudjo's Cv and to find faults where there is none and that will expose him as an attention seeker, since it's one of the filthy tactics of people who struggle for power, that is to attack the man at the helm and that makes you popular . You don't play such kind of stupid games talking too much,attacking any body you do not agree with.
Franklin, learn to be wise and know that every game in politics has its reversal rules.
