What the heck was going on in the mind of Dr. Kwadwo Afari Djan when he made public the findings of the EC as regards the over bloated register?

We ask again; what was going on in the mind of Afari Djan?

Nana Biakoye, for good reason, decided to leave Afari Djan out of my line of fire when the issue of the over bloated register found itself on the front burner of matters concerning the state.

Indeed, I left Afari Djan out of our line of fire for being able to find the “balls” to let the whole world know that NPP acolytes, Yorke Aidoo (who has been axed as Director of Public Affairs for being too partisan with his pronouncements) and Arhin, lied, when they said that the NDC did not request for any document from the EC and that the information Professor Mills and the NDC put out was a complete fabrication.

But my decision to leave Afari Djan out of our line of fire has lost its legs because of what the Commissioner did a couple of days ago.

For goodness sake, did Afari Djan think he made sense?

I ask again; did Afari Djan think he made sense with the kind of logic he espoused?

What does Afari Djan mean by saying that the EC’s database is correct and that it is only the printout that has problems?

The database is intact but the printout has problems? Gee!!!

How on earth can the database be correct and the printout be wrong?

Is the printout not a product of the database?

So how on earth can there be a serious incongruity between the two?

Of course, you can give a wrong query but what ever comes out as a result of that wrong query, will still be related to the database.

For example, you can give a wrong query by asking for A instead of Z, but the end product will always be related to the database.

So it is highly untenable for Afari Djan to look us in the face and tell us that the EC’s database has no problems and that it is only the printout that has problems?

When Afari Djan talks about “human error”, what does he mean?

By the way, human error can be deliberate or inadvertent; so which type of human error is Afari Djan referring to?

Why is it that under the watch of Kufuor and his looting brigade, officials of state talk to us as if we have sawdust in our heads?

We don’t believe that even a dog suffering from a rare form of dangerous rabbis, will believe the tale Afari Djan told.

Why on earth is Afari Djan doing this to himself? With all the international recognition he has, is this what he wants to do to himself?

Let us believe Afari Djan, and assume that it was a wrong query that produced the over bloated register in the 13 constituencies in the Ashanti Region.

But we ask; if the same wrong query / print command was given for the printout of information on all 230 constituencies, how in God’s name did only 13 constituencies end up with an over 100% growth in voter population?

Ok, lets assume that the Ashanti Region register was printed separately; how come all 39 constituencies did not experience the 100% growth in voter population as a result of some wrong query / print command that was issued?

Afari Djan may not be an IT expert but for goodness sake, if his IT people gave him this cock and bull story, did he have to parrot it without thinking it through?

I may be sounding very harsh with my diction but I have no regrets at all.

It is said that when a chief decides to leave his palace and go play “damin” with the unbeez boys under the tree, the chief should be prepared for the kind of language that is associated with the game.

Afari Djan has really angered me, and I am not about to be nice with my diction.

If Afari Djan is prepared to kill his international reputation on the alter of this year’s election, that is his cup of tea.

But Afari Djan will not be allowed to kill the geographical entity called Ghana.

Afari Djan and co should be in the know that the majority of Ghanaians are not prepared to allow the NPP to get away with what Jake and co did in 2004 by declaring themselves winner via a stolen verdict, with the EC looking on like a dummy.

If Afari Djan and co got away with their gross act of irresponsibility, by allowing Jake and co to yank the constitutional mandate of the EC, this time around, they will not get away with it.

Ghanaians are not ready to allow Akufo-Addo and the NPP to continue killing them, and Afari Djan and his group dare not stand in the way of the will of the people.

And when Afari Djan says that the software that the EC is using was built for a certain voter population and that the voter population has outgrown the software, is he not admitting that there is a problem with managing data at the EC?

And if Afari Djan and co are going to add more numbers, via this year’s registration, to a database that has outgrown the software, how can Afari Djan run away from the fact that the EC has a problem with data management?

Nana Biakoye is not threatening; but I am telling Afari Djan and co not to take the peoples desire for change for granted.

Afari Djan and co should not try the temper of the people because if they do so, they may not live to regret their folly.

Nana Biakoye has run his corn aground, and it is up to Afari Djan and co to peck it.

If they don’t. …
