The True Ghanaians — The NDC, Mahama’s Team
President Mahama’s second coming has been nothing short of historic, and may God continue to bless him with deeper wisdom. The team he is working with are not just politicians — they are true Ghanaians, patriots with the nation at heart, determined to move Ghana forward with dignity and purpose.
One thing every Ghanaian must understand is this: nation‑building is not an overnight miracle. It takes a disciplined mind, a selfless heart, and a visionary spirit to design and decorate a Ghana that belongs to all of us. I have personally, critically listened to and observed the actions and words of Mr. Mahama and the prominent old and young patriots who stand with him — and I see a new Ghana rising.
I plead with Mr. Mahama and General Mosquito to continue using the wisdom God has given them to empower the young, brilliant minds like Sammy Gyamfi, Ablakwa, Kofi Boah, Ofosu Kwakye, Health Minister Akwandoh, my big man Sam George, the great Ato Forson, Basentali, Haruna Iddrisu, Ayariga, Muntaka, the Agric Minister, Fiifi Kwetey, Dr. Amoakohene — and indeed the many young ones. I have spotted eight more brilliant NDC men and women whose ideas echo the spirit of Nkrumah. Keep going. Keep rising. Ghana sees you. Ghana is proud of you.
I see your effort to stabilize the economy. I see your humility, your respectfulness, your resilience. Ghana is proud of what you have done — and the world is watching. Thank God for the wisdom you carry and the heart you have for Ghana. Keep moving.
I once thought about my want to reducing certain political benefits so that at least teachers could receive better salaries — and Mr. Mahama initiated that very plan. I projected the need for better roads — and I woke up to hear Mr. President Mahama and his team launching the Big Push. I projected industrialization — and I heard Ato Forson declare that after road networks, the next frontier is industry. Who would not be proud of such a team?
No recklessness. No greed. No selfishness. Everything is Ghana‑centered. Everything is people‑centered. Everything is nation‑building.
