NDC Jumping before the cart?

NDC Jumping before the cart?

The NDC have once more become edgy in the face of the unfolding truth. One wonders why they are never accommodative of the truth. Does the sight of the truth hurt them that much? If yes, then Electoral Commissioner let us please hear the truth, nothing but the gospel truth, about the runoff election results. They are capriciously intermittent and petty with the truth as long as their unflinching and resolute determination to form the Atta Mill's government next year goes. When the truth tips the balance in their favour, the Electoral Commission are doing an excellent job but when it becomes otherwise, the Electoral Commission are conniving to rig the election for their rival. Oh, what a bunch of ignoramuses?

I was sick to the bone last night and had to switch my radio off because of the utterance of filthy threats by one of the NDC activists in response to a radio interviewer's question. This nincompoop said and I quote, " The President and the Electoral Commissioner shouldn't be stupid. They know our history and we will give them a firing squad if they fail to come out to tell us Atta Mills has won. Let them try and they will see" Whoever this guy was is the greatest political bastard I have ever heard of. He can refuse my admonition but to proceed with his nonsensicality to die for any politician who will even not attend his funeral let alone catering for his wife, siblings or children after his death. Such are the idiots in society who are easily manipulated by politicians especially, the NDC to fight their dirty politicking battles and wars.

Why should the NDC not have a little sensible patience to wait for the Electoral Commissioner to announce the results but to storm out of the offices of the Electoral Commission when the truth reared or inched in its beautiful but not ugly head last night? I understand Atta Mills, the purported President-in-waiting, has been issuing threats and declares to have formed his government already well ahead of the official declaration of the results by the Electoral Commission. This is to me a jumping before the cart. The cart will screech, squeak and halt. It will not move or else the stupid comedian who is defying natural sequence of things will become a minced meat, the cart running him down. Have the NDC no longer any confidence in the Electoral Commission and if so, why? Were the NDC themselves signatory to the fact that it is only the Electoral Commissioner who can declare the election results but not the radio presenters as it now seems to be the unhelpful situation? Why are they then going with the side of the radio stations to foment trouble in the nation as has always been their dream? The radio stations have naively thrown fuel onto the highly charged ticking inflammable time bomb about to ignite by a silly political activist setting fire to it. Who knows about the three elements of fire?

Let there be peace in Ghana. Whatever the Electoral Commissioner says goes irrespective of whose favour it tips. I have absolute confidence in Dr. Afari Djan. Please let us have the exact results as ordained by God and confirmed by the powerful thumbs of the Ghanaian electorates. There should please be no "ifs and buts". The volatile place like the GBC, TV stations and radio stations be manned by trusted armed forces personnel to avoid an opportunist availing himself of any ensuing chaos to stage a coup d'etat. Underestimate my suggestion in this direction and we will all have ourselves to blame, biting on our finger and saying, "had I known", but which is always at last.

SHALOM, SHALOM and SHALOM be unto Ghanaians. Whoever wins is my president and he will have my full support.

It is clear that the NDC and their supporters are driven predominantly by their animalistic behaviour.They are always ready to kill,maim,or demean us. With the NDC's political extremism on the rise,Ghana has a problem.
