I Fear For Ghana's Youth Under N.D.C.


Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, running mate of New Patriotic Party flagbearer Nana Akufo-Addo, has stated that if President Mahama were his student he would have graded him F in economics.

He said the NDC government has since 2009 failed in its management of the economy.

“You inherited an economy with the highest resources in the history of Ghana. Tax resources, four times higher than the NPP; Cocoa, three times higher; Gold, three times higher; you have borrowed more than all the governments put together and still we can’t feel a better economy, then you have failed. Mahama deserves F in economic management,” Bawumia asserted.

Speaking in an interview with Nsempawura on a Koforidua-based Eastern FM, the former Deputy Governor said for instance, the NDC government inherited a total debt of GHC 9.5 billion in 2009 and has increased it to GHC 90 billion within six years.

By the end of the year, Ghana’s debt will hit about US$ 40 billion looking at the current borrowing trend, he predicted.

With the sum of US$ 40 billion, he said, a good management team will allocate just US$ 2 billion to each region for development but the contrary is happening under the NDC government.



In economic management, every government with such an amount of money should be able to pay nurses, teachers, doctors, NHIS, and take care of all the social intervention programmes in Ghana, Dr. Bawumia analysed.

According to Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, President Mahama and the NDC government can best be described as a “toxic mixture of incompetent and corruption which has exploded into ‘Wahala’ and Suffering”.

He feared for the future of the Ghanaian youth under the NDC administration, and challenged the youth to join the NPP to recapture power from the NDC in the 2016 General elections.

Meanwhile, the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has called on Ghanaians to resist politicians who inflame ethnic sentiment in the run up to the general elections.

He accused the NDC of inflaming ethnic comment in the Eastern region and other parts of the country to gain political favor.

He said, the Eastern Region and Ghana has a mixture of all tribes and have lived together over the year’s without clashes or misunderstanding hence the NDC should not destabilize the country by promoting ethnic propaganda

The NPP flagbearer noted that, he is not corrupt and has never stolen the state money before hence he is the best person Ghanaians should trust to manage the affairs of this country.

Help Feed The Street Children.


#FEEDTHECHILD There is about 20,000 children living on the streets of Kumasi. For these children daily life consists of a constant struggle for survival. They search for polluted garbage dumps for metal parts, which they can sell for few coins. They sleep without any protection, sometimes right next to traffic-laden streets. THEY EAT IRREGULARLY AND MOSTLY UNHEALTHY. Violence, drug and sexual abuse are part of these children's daily routine. A lack of hygiene often leads to infection with diseases and makes it harder to cure them. Without a chance to complete or even attend school, the perspective for these young people looks very grim. The society has put a blind eye to it resulting to high level of armed robbery and other social vices. Have you ever thought of these children or had a chance to ask any of them, how they ended up on the street?

N.P.P Formal Chairman- " I Am Sad For My Party ".


Peter Mac Manu, a distinguish former National Chairman of the opposition New Patriotic Party [NPP] says he always feels miserable when the party he once led is exposed to bad publication in the media. Mac Manu who has been tipped to lead Nana Addo’s 2016 campaign seek to know why the ‘Elephant’ fraternity is still not “united” – despite been known as the Danquah-Busia-Dombo Tradition party. 
“I am very sad for the NPP,” – he told Kasapa FM. The NPP is yet to resolve some internal wrangling within the party – some key members of the party seems to have issues with others, a situation that has led to the party’s national chairman and its general secretary’s office in trouble over the past few months. The former chairman is however calling for a “United” NPP to face the ruling NDC in the coming election – all issues within the party according to him must be solved amicably.
