Ghana's Aspirational And Brilliant Younger Generations Must Speak Out Against Our Forever-Bickering Politicians

We have reached a very, very dangerous moment in our history, when all decent-minded and discerning Ghanaian citizens, ought to condemn, in no uncertain terms, the unpardonable and abominable insouciance, of the ruthless hardliners of the forever-bickering NPP/NDC duopoly's constituent entities.

The reality of our current situation, as an aspirational and mostly-tolerant-society, is that we are in the midst of a public health emergency, involving a highly infectious COVID-19 global pandemic (with over 10,000 cases, thus far), which, if not effectively contained, could infect millions of our people, and kill hundreds of thousands of Ghanaians. Literally.

If COVID-19 has the potential to bring our nation to it knees, while wrecking and more or less permanently crippling our national economy, by setting it back decades, then one's humble advice to our younger generations, is to look at the bigger picture - and opt for electing to protect Mother Ghana from unreasonable, selfish and greed-filled individuals-with-hidden-agendas.

When menacing COVID-19 is actually threatening their collective future, they must be brave, and loving of their nation, and all its people, in this matter, by showing their disapproval of what is the bane of our country's politics: unproductive-parochial-politricks - at what is so obviously a danger-laden juncture, in our beleaguered nation's history.

After all, it is their future that is at stake, is it not? Literally. That is why Ghana's aspirational and brilliant younger generations must now speak out against our forever-bickering politicians. Simple.

Yooooo... Hmmmm, Oman Ghana, eyeasem ooooo - enti yewieye paaa enei? Asem kesie ebeba debi ankasa.
