The house champion and her self-effacing opinion!

One house champion who I hear is a Presidential staffer under this failed government and hailing from the north, has shot herself in the foot and looked into the bottle with both eyes, and therefore see nothing with her self-effacing opinion.

She has suggested that an upcoming Guiness world record cook -A-Thon scheduled for Tamale in the new year be moved to Accra because Tamale is too far away for the supporters and the celebrities to attend. She also says: It is too expensive by air and takes too long by road for people to travel from Accra to Tamale to support such an event.

I am guessing that this house negro considers herself a celebrity, - what ever that means. If I may ask, what is the contribution of the so-called celebrities to the breaking of the Guinness world record? Besides going there for self-promotion?

I am told this house champion wants to also run for parliament on the ticket of her people - where ever she comes from in the north - and yet her mind works this Anti-clockwise?

First of all, the GWR attempt is a global event viewed from all over the world. In other words, it is more of an online event than a physical event. And what we call physical supporters are not even part of the scheme of things.

Secondly, the people down there in Tamale are currently supporting the sing-a-thon in Accra without any difficulty. And there are enough people in the north or in Tamale to physically support such an event.

Everyone else in the word will follow online, as we are all currently doing for the sing -a-thon without any difficulty. Did we not root for the Nigerian lady when she did her cook-a-thon? Were we physically present to do so?

So, considering the globalist theme of this Guiness world record events, Why should someone supposedly from the north and working in the office of the President be the first to suggest a change of local venue to the capital because “the holidays are over and many of us are returning to work in Accra”.

I guess in her simple mind, the people in Tamale and surrounding areas will vanish once she returns to Accra after her holidays?
Or those remaining there are not good enough to provide physical support to such an event. No?

Her shallow-minded suggestion does not only irritate some of us, it also saddens us.

One would expect someone in such an office to have self-respect and a high opinion of her own people.

One would also expect someone supposedly with a political cap on, will be thinking about how such a cook-a-ton would promote local tourism and stimulate the local economy in Tamale and surroundings.

Or at least, as they say, this upcoming event could even put the name TAMALE on the international map as the venue will also make the news.

But no, this house champion, cannot see any of these benefits to her own people. How can she see when she is looking into the bottle with both eyes with a house nigga mentality that says “Accra is Ghana” and only Accra deserves to host the best events in the country since those who live in Accra are superior humans?
of “celebrities” who deserve to be served first.

She must be thinking that living in Accra is living in heaven!

How does this person intend to be a leader of her people in parliament with such a low opinion of herself and her people?

Are these the shallow minds following Dr. Bawumia around telling Ghanaians to vote for them? And she’s Telling us that TAMALE is too far away for anything good to take place over there?

Does she think her opinion is worth just because she is a presidential staffer?? She should think again!!!

NB. Just before making this post, I noticed she pulled down her offensive post so obviously she is THINKING AGAIN!!!! Unfortunately she remains a house champion with a low opinion of herself and her people and should not be taken seriously!
