Barely had Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia publicly launched his manifesto going into the election of 2024, the NDC automatically went into fever mode. The NDC’s hope of winning the 2024 election was immediately dampened and truncated, leaving them confused and scratching their heads for solutions.
A cold chill descended their spine. They started sweating profusely, rhetorically asking themselves how Dr. Bawumia could easily calmly shatter their hopes of winning the upcoming election with his NPP manifesto.
"They ain’t seen anything yet.”. Innit? Excuse me for this street language.
The NDC has all along been banking on the current economic hardships in the country to cause public disaffection for the NPP to get them (NDC) voted into power on December 7, 2024.
Little did they know that victory was not going to be handed to them on a silver platter but rather that their hopes were going to be shattered by the bigger brain, Dr. Bawumia, aka Mister Digital.
I have said time and again that when the big brain speaks, the small brain either shudders or takes cover. When wisdom speaks, intelligence shuts its mouth up to listen attentively.
However, in the case of the NDC, when the wise and most intelligent NPP, Dr. Bawumia, speaks, Mr. John Dramani Mahama and his ilk instantly switch into attack mode. They start criticising and seek to find faults with him and the NPP, if any.
With their despicable behavior and inability to come up with sound policies and programs, are the NDC and Mr. John Dramani Mahama ready and capable of governing Ghana to take the country to the periphery of economic development, let alone, inside the international circle of economic development? I am not afraid.
Since the launch of the NPP manifesto, just check to see how NDC National Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, whose ugliness cuts across bones, has been bastardising the NPP manifesto. Is he right up in the head, if I may ask without meaning to insult him?
The NDC always waits for the NPP to launch their manifesto, then steals from it, after which they try to rubbish the rest.
Mind you, a few in the NDC fold are wise and intelligent; hence, they steer clear of the NDC propaganda, insults, and baseless destructive criticisms of their political rivals.
Do you ever hear my Kumawu compatriot, Dr. Kwabena Duffour, criticising, let alone destructively, all the policies and programs of the NPP, as do Mr. John Dramani Mahama, Asiedu Nketiah, or Sammy Gyamfi? No and no, why? Because he is a learned economist and financial expert, he understands and sees credible policies when they are miles away.
Populist Mr. John Mahama does not even understand, let alone be capable of explaining his few populist policies, among which are the 24-Hour Economy and using artificial intelligence (AI) to fight illegal small-scale and alluvial mining (galamsey).
Let all discerning Ghanaians join hands with the writer to campaign to get Dr. Bawumia elected president of Ghana on December 7, 2024.
Mr. Mahama and the NDC cannot be the alternative now that the world is in an economic and war crisis.
The storms of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war have combined to trigger hurricane “Devil” to wipe out economies in her path. While moving violently, it agitates all waters in her path to cause huge devastation.
We therefore need a big mind for the captain to come and continue to steer the ship of Ghana from the troubled waters into calm waters. Seeing Mr. John Dramani Mahama as policy-deficient, a liar, and an instigator, he automatically becomes a little brain, therefore incapable of taking the helm of Ghana’s affairs. That is the gospel truth.
We no longer need any “Edebii keke” to come and mess Ghana by derailing the sound structures laid that are surely able to weather the economic storm and then catapult the country into the orbiting circle of world economic development.
The NPP is well-focused and will not be distracted by the ignorance and devilish ploys of the NDC to create a tempest in a teapot.
