Nduom, you missed the boat

When all the political apparatus are being marshaled to the last political battlefield that would send the elephant back to the bush, out of nowhere came Paa Kwesi Nduom.

But before I continue, do you know that Tain shares a common border with Ivory Coast and that country's football team is called the Elephants of Ivory Coast? I know what you are thinking. And I presume my guess is as good as what you are thinking. The defeat of the Osono on Friday would send it close to the borders of Ivory Coast where Ghanaians would donate it to the country for good.

Now back to Kwesi Nduom and his antics. Immediately after Sunday's presidential results started trickling in, it did not take too long for Ghanaians to know who was the clear winner, in spite of the astronomical figures that were being manufactured from the Ashanti Region. No wonder the Ashantis make us believe that the so-called Golden Stool came from the heavens. "Mr. Domestication", I love that man, was the first major political figure to come out to declare that Professor Mills won, therefore, Akufo-Addo should concede defeat. All this while Nduom who became a puppet of the NPP and as a result the CPP people never took him serious was somewhere drinking Champaign, I presume.

Nobody in Ghana heard Nduom comment that in the interest of peace and fair play the very NPP government that he served and they later turned round to indict him for corruption, should concede defeat for the country to move on. In fact Nduom waited hours after the Electoral Commissioner, Dr Kwadwo Afari-Gyan had declared a stalemate and announced preparations for the final elections in Tain before issuing a statement with two other losing presidential candidates for the loser of Sunday's election to accept the results.

Nduom could not even speak to the cameras but he released a press statement. The man who has already launched his presidential ambition for 2012 when we do not even know the eventual winner of the current elections could not come out of his hiding to speak about what he feels if right for Ghanaians.

No wonder even though he is a brainy man people still doubt his integrity. It has already been determined that Friday's election in Tain would determine the next President of Ghana. Therefore, Mr. Nduom, you missed the boat. Probably you have been drinking too much. Too little, too late, too much garbage that does not add anything to the plate.

I suggest you stay where you are until Professor Mills is crowned the next President of mother Ghana come Friday. All eyes are glued to Tain. There would be massive invasion of NDC gurus who would put their men at the less than 80 polling stations in that constituency. I also love General Mosquito (I have fallen in love with two men already), who asked all NDC top guns to rush to the area to become polling watchdogs. And as usual the press would descend heavily into that area. There would at least be three to six pressmen and women at each of the polling stations. Therefore, where would the NPP pull its tricks again? They are at a dead end.

Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, whose Bible President-Elect Barak Obama would use during his swearing-in ceremony on January 20 once said "You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time."

NPP's game is up. Their cup has runneth over and their evil deeds would follow them until the rest of their lives. Ghana would be better off without these dishonourable men and women who just came out of their hungry holes to eat everything they found on the plate.

Mr. Nduom, Professor Mills, the entire NDC population and the good thinking Ghanaians do not need your advice. Please keep it. Your statement is late and could therefore pass as useless. But as God lives and we are all alive by HIS Grace, Akufo-Addo would see Canaan (Presidential Palace), but would never sleep there. Ghana would be a better place without these NPP suspects.

Ghanaians should wait until I start writing about the evil deeds of the NPP after the inauguration of Professor Mills. Mr. So-called Document (Kweku Baako) would envy the kind of documentation that I have in my possession that should send shivers down the spines of President Kufuor all the way down to some top NPP functionaries. Keep the watch!
