I Write To Expose NPP Leaders

I Write To Expose NPP Leaders, I Don’t Attack Them.

Many politicians are always placing the attainment of power, OVER and ABOVE the pursuit of PRINCIPLES.

Some politicians are prepared to CONDONE and CNNIVE in doing the WRONG THINGS if that would enable them to ACHIEVE or BASK in the GLORY OF POWER.
At times, they are even ready to KILL EVEN THEIR OWN PARTY MEMBERS whom they consider as STUMBLING BLOCKS ON THEIR WAY – BY CROSSING THEIR PATH TO MONEY AND POWER. A typical example is the DEATH THREATS ON Dr. Busia’s daughter by the NPP, her father’s party – when she tried to expose the lack of commitment of the NPP towards the proliferation of small arms in the country under Kufuor’s administration. The woman, who is a lawyer by profession, had to go into hiding throughout the period that the NPP was in government from 2001 – 2008 to avoid being killed by the Death Squad of the NPP. See ‘’The Insight’’ front page story on the death threat in its 4th December 2008 issue. That was after Security Agencies, and the Death Squad of the NPP combed the whole country looking for her – she only surfaced on 10th January 2009 after Professor Mills was sworn in as President of the Republic of Ghana.

The NPP claim to be the only political party in Ghana with democratic traditions and the above death threat on Dr. Busia’s daughter is part of their democratic credentials.

I DON’T WRITE TO ATTACK.
All members of the violent prone NPP are my political opponents and NOT, repeat NOT political enemies. On the other hand, they (NPP) members regard NDC members as their sworn political enemies which does not auger well for Ghana’s young democracy at all since 1992 to date 2014.

I have so many friends, I mean, countless friends in the camp of the NPP ranging from Pastors, Miners, Journalists, Chiefs, Judges, Bankers, Civil Servants, Engineers, Contractors, Businessmen and women and even some Parliamentarians in Ghana. I even break bread on one table with some of them - I mean the God fearing ones among the lot. I have a brilliant friend called Mr. Afoakwa, a young University graduate and an Assemblyman in one of the Electoral Areas of the Obuasi Municipal Assembly.

He is a staunch member of the NPP in Obuasi. He is currently an NPP Constituency Secretary.

On 30th December 2013, this young man met me and complained that I am a good Columnist, but I always write to attack the NPP a lot. In re-action. I told him that I don’t write to attack the NPP but I write to always EXPSOE their sordid past which they are never ready to reveal but still continue to practice in the country.


CONCERNED BRILLIANT NPP YOUTH.
Between September and October 2013, I travelled to Kumasi, Techiman and Sunyani to attend funerals and in all the three vehicles that I joined – some young Tertiary students were discussing the articles I have been writing to the Ghana Web. Com. According to them, they always make a print out of my articles that depicts the NPP as the originator of political violence in Ghana, the ethnic cleansing in Kumasi and Kyebi by NLM thugs led by Busia and Baffour Akoto and that they read the contents and explained them in the ‘’Twi’’ language to their aged fathers and grand fathers who rather told them WORSE THINGS about today’s NPP and its roots and even added that’’ what that person wrote to the Ghana web. Com is only THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG.

When I heard their concerns, I was very very happy about them because whenever they took such articles to the leadership of TESCOM, REGIONAL OR CONSTITUENCY OFFICES of the NPP according to the students – The executives always brushed aside my articles – saying that, it is all false propaganda against the NPP so they should not mind me. To those concerned Brilliant NPP youth in Kumasi and Sunyani, it is NOW YOUR CHOICE to either Believe your grand fathers and your own aged biological fathers stories or you blindly follow the NPP leaders who will lead you into a blazing Hell Fire in future.

I am not a fool or a madman to just take up my pen and write trash against a political party like the NPP. I do not hate any member of the NPP but I rather hate their lies, their insults, their political intolerance, their tribalism and their extreme dishonesty.

The trust of the innocent is the liar’s most useful tool. Every time the NPP members tell lies because they believe falsely that the ordinary people are NOT SMART ENOUGH to see through them.

Members of the NPP are known to make promises that they know they have no intention of fulfilling. This attitude had been their stock – in - trade from the NLM Mate meho era in 1951to date 2014.

The NPP think that the people are so gullible that they would accept ANY PROMISE even if their history indicates otherwise.

When I comment on these nasty state of affairs by the NPP my good friend will describe it as an attack on the NPP – I rather expose the NPP and not attacking them – Mr. Afoakwa – correct yourself. ! Is anybody listening? I shall return when the need arise. I am done ‘’Jaanbie Iwaii – Aluta Continua!
