  GIVE MORE APPOINTMENTS TO CHAIRMAN WONTUMI- Volta Group backs Kennedy Agyepong A Group in the Volta Region has backed call by the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Hon. Kennedy Agyepong, for the President to consider giving the chunk of appointments to the Ashanti Region in his next administration.  Results from last Monday's elections once again proved Ashanti Region as the bedrock of the New Patriotic Party, after garnering a whopping 1.794,000 million votes for the President,  His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo.  The region singlehandedly carried the President on its shoulders, cancelling total votes obtained by the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) in eight regions. Reactions from the outcome has largely been a mixed one, with many commending the regional leadership for a good job done, despite failing to achieve the 47 Parliamentary target. The outspoken MP for Assin Central, Hon. Kennedy Agyepong, in a video that has since gone viral...

Let us jealously guard the democratic gains Ghana has accrued over the years”. ’We need to live in peaceful co-existence with all irrespective of religion or tribal background to consolidate the unity...

  Let's God Touch Your Heart and Vote Massively for President Akufo-Addo on December 7th 7th December 2020 is a major and important decision time to determine the destiny and forward march of Ghana. It is about the choice of Free SHS against the choice of Mortuary. It is about the choice of Planting for Food and Jobs, 1 District 1 Factory against the choice of Okada. It is about the choice of Free Water, Free Electricity against the choice of Dumsor. It is about the choice of competent leadership of President Akufo-Addo against the incompetent leadership of John Dramani Mahama.  We cannot go back to the era of John Mahama where payment of judgement debts was the avenue for creating, looting and sharing Ghana's monies among NDC babies with sharp teeth. Mahama's era where the Clergy were under constant attacks. Mahama's era where businesses collapsed as a result of Dumsor, killer taxes, high inflation, high interest rates, high policy rates and high cost of doing business...

  "FA NINYINAA" Policy is a Desperate Move to Salvage a Sinking Campaign If NDC seriously believes in the FA NINYINAA Policy for First Year Tertiary Students, that policy statement would have come from their 2020 Presidential Candidate, John Mahama himself or the Running Mate Prof. Naana Opoku Agyeman. That last minute promise would not have come from the National Chairman Samuel Ofosu Ampofo who is struggling over Rape and Kidnapping allegations. The words of an alleged kidnapper, Samuel Ofosu, can never be taken seriously.  John Mahama or Prof. Naana Opoku Agyeman do not want to be held accountable over the FA NINYINAA Policy in the unlikely event that the NDC wins, so they have pushed Ofosu Ampofo to issue that last minute propaganda policy just to throw dust into the eyes of Ghanaians thinking that Ghanaians have SHORT MEMORIES. No amount of fabrications and last minute policy propaganda in the name of FA NINYINAA  can Salvage the Sinking Useless Campaign of the faile...

  Akufo-Addo Deserves Another Term to Protect Free SHS, 1D1F, PFJ and Rebuilding of the Economy Post COVID-19 President Akufo-Addo and the New Patriotic Party have done very well within the first term in Government, and they have proven beyond reasonable doubt that they deserve another four more years to protect, preserve and continue the good works they have started. It would be unfair, suicidal and a travesty of justice if Ghanaians fail to vote for President Akufo-Addo and NPP Parliamentary Candidates in the 7th December 2020 general elections. A vote against Akufo-Addo and NPP Parliamentary Candidates will be an Ungrateful behaviour against the Free SHS Policy, Planting for Food and Jobs, NABCO, Free Water, Free Electricity, 307 Ambulances, stable supply of electricity(no dumsor), 1 Village 1 Dam, Creation of Six new Regions, Lasting Peace in Dagbon Kingdom etc. 1. Parents, Uncles, Aunties and students who are direct and indirect beneficiaries of Akufo-Addo's Free SHS Policy ar...

  Trump's One Term Presidency has Many Useful Lessons for John Mahama---CVM According to John Mahama, he is hoping that the victory of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris would be replicated same  in Ghana simply because: 1. He chose a woman as a running mate likewise Joe Biden.  2. It looks like anytime power has shifted in the US it has shifted also in Ghana. John Mahama should be advised that elections and democracy in the US never started in 1992 and so there is no way Ghana can share a simultaneous destiny with the USA. Mahama should rather focus on selling his track record as well as his new okada and mortuary policies to the Ghanaian electorates and stop the baseless reliance on useless superstitious beliefs that the victory of Biden is an automatic victory for him. For the avoidance of doubt there are big differences between the Incompetent John Mahama and Joe Biden likewise their respective female running mates: 1. Biden is not practicing the culture of community husband...

 NDC Boycotts Assin Fosu Based Radio Station; NAPFM The Central Regional Communication Bureau of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) wishes to inform all its Communicators, Media Monitors, and Officials that the Party has boycotted Assin Fosu based NAP FM’s political programs effective tomorrow, Monday, 9th November 2020.  This decision has been occasioned by the unfair and wicked decision of the vindictive Akufo Addo's Govt in revoking frequencies of objective media houses deemed critical of his corrupt & nepotistic NPP Govt whilst assigning new licenses to known NPP MPs, Appointees and other functionaries including the owner of this NAP FM. Knowing who the owner of this station is, it is clear the NDC will not have a fair representation on their political shows. Again, we cannot guarantee the safety and security of our communicators who will show up at the studios, bearing in mind issues that led to the gruesome murder of ace journalist, Ahmed Suale. In view of the ab...

  John  Mahama's 2020 Campaign led by Sammy Gyamfi Overbloated with Sophomoric Humor.....CVM The campaign style and messages of John Mahama for the 2020 general election have been full of Sophomoric humor and  distortions.  The leadership of Concerned Voters Movement(CVM) has taken time to peruse the manifesto document of the NDC and keenly monitors the commentaries from its Communications Bureau, and truly one can boldly conclude that the NDC under the leadership of John Mahama is NOT SERIOUS for the 2020 general elections. The campaign messages, policy alternatives and strategies of the NDC for December 7, 2020 are like a kind of comedy that only appeal to the silly sense of immature people.  It seems the wisemen in the NDC are quiet , unconcerned and not interested in campaigning for the Destructive coming of John Mahama who is just waiting for his 2nd Defeat in his 3rd attempt at the Presidency.  Since the wisemen of NDC including the Founder J. J. Rawl...

  Assin South Parliamentary Seat is Currently Under a Serious Threat For NPP . A tough political tussle reminiscent of the biblical battle between David and Goliath would take place in the Assin South Constituency in the Central Region in the forthcoming December 7 polls. Ordinarily, one would expect a stiff competition between the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and National Democratic Congress (NDC) but this will not be the case this time around. The parliamentary seat, which had been occupied by the NPP, is currently under a serious threat not from another political entity but an independent candidate. Interestingly, the constituency was one of the keenly contested in the run-up to the 2016 general election owing to the unpredictable nature of the voter population. Ahead of the 2020 polls, the political dynamics have dramatically changed forcing all candidates to adopt varying political tactics to sway voters to their side.
