@Nii Quartey I confer on your recent comment the Best Comment so far on Peacefmonline 2017. It is gratyfying to note there are still intelligent people like me on this platform. When it is time to go to the trenches, nobody talks about how Akans take the risks to do so. When it is time for positions, then we hear some of these absurd bigot comments from the kind of @Shame
Any professional who want to be part of a government in power must contribute his/her time, knowledge, resources, skill etc to a political party when in opposition. Do not wait for a party to come to power and expect, by your tribe, you will be favoured and those who toiled for the party to come to power to be neglected. That will be unfair. People like Yoofi Grant, Otiko Djaba, Kennedy Agyapong, Titus Glover, etc really commuted their whole being to the success of NPP. Yes we voted but they presented to us what we voted for. Which means they are competent to execute the task ahead of them.
Nana .....when will you appoint non akan. Your tribal and racist appointment will soon end. 2020 is just at the corner. This ***barred word*** must stop
Great mind. What a great academic credentials
