The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, says the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) have created a noose around their own necks after comparing the outcome of Nigeria’s 2015 elections to what would happen in Ghana.
He says the situation is like staking of a wrong bet, by the opposition party.
Mr Asiedu Nketia explained his metaphor by saying the NPP rode very high on the loss of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan in the 2015 Nigeria elections and compared the victory by General Muhammadu Buhari as a good omen for flagbearer Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
Addressing supporters and sympathizers of the NDC at Adentan during the campaign launch of parliamentary candidate Mohammed Ramadan on Sunday, Mr Asiedu Nketia said the NPP compared the power crisis in Ghana to Nigeria’s Boko Haram, perceived as reason for Jonathan’s loss.
He continued that the NPP were of the firm belief that Ghanaians will vote out the NDC and President John Mahama if dumsor persisted. “Where is the dumsor now?” he asked. “Why are they even campaigning since they made dumsor their main campaign weapon?”
Speaking in Twi, the chairman of NDC’s 2016 campaign committee said ‘even Gen. Buhari that they compared Nana Akufo-Addo to has his government in deep straits. If someone knows Mrs Rebecca Akufo-Addo, go and tell her to go to Buhari’s wife for advice”.
He said by now Mrs Akufo-Addo should be advising her husband out of politics because “now he is weak and cannot govern like President John Mahama”.
Mr Asiedu Nketia’s assertion derives from the recent rant between President Buhari and his wife, Aisha, over his presidency. “Did you hear what happened recently?” Asiedu Nketia, popularly known as General Mosquito, asked the crowd. “His wife says it was a mistake for him to run for president in the first place.
”The former Member of Parliament said Adentan constituents, and by extension Ghanaians, will be better off giving NDC a four-year extension. According to him, the NDC is the only party that cannot fail the test of tribalism.
“NDC is the only national party giving opportunity to every Ghanaian no matter where you come from.”

See who's talking, Asiedu Nketia?? First NDC must be probed to have constructed the headquarters which, by all standards, cost more than $20M. Fiafitor Julor NDC. Asiedu Nketia would like NDC to enjoy their loot at the expense of the rest of the populace
day time dreamers. Ghana is gone beyond these fact-less bunch of ineptitude. these bunch of comedians should be relegated to our theaters for the state to also benefit from them.
POLITICAL COMEDIAN OF THE CENTURY. THOSE THAT GOD WANTS TO DESTROY HE IN FACT MAKES THEM M-A-D.
So has the NDC done with John Dramani Wahala
VOTING FOR NANA AKUFO ADDO EQUAL DOOM FOR GHANA. HE IS OLD AND WEAK. NO WONADER AFTER EVERY CAMPAIGN TRIP HE HAS TO RUN TO LONDON OR GERMANY FOR MEDICAL CHECKS. WE CANNOT MAKE A MISTAKE AND VOTE FOR NANA ADDO WHILST MAHAMA IS ON COURSE WITH SOCIAL INFRASTRUTURE THAT WILL SEND THE COUNTRY ON THE TRACK OF ADVANCEMENT. GENEUINELY MAHAMA IS ON TRACK AND HE NEEDS TO CONTINUE. GHANAIANS MUST VOTE HIM HE IS MORE TRUST WORTHY THAN AKUFO ADDO
Palm wine tapper indeed. These evil doers of a Party. They can never change. Instead of telling us what they will after the mess they have created for us they are out vilifying Nana Addo. I cant wait for Dec 7.
If NANA is a wrong lottery why is he out campaigning for histime then and why do they have mahama's billborad everywhere in the country?And why are they paying people big money to create a mess?A big change is coming.
Wrong numbers wins sometimes,let give it a try we may hit a jackpot,change is good
Asiedu Nketia is making sense. We are in the country when Buhari won they said Nana Addo will also win because of age gfactor but it has turned out that because of Buhari age says the wife cannot rule. it stands to reason that if Nana Addo is voted into power, by virtur of his age cannot rule properly and the economy will be in turmoil so the wife of Akuffo Addo should equally advise Akuffo so nas not to gamble the destiny of this nation. The NPP also said Bokom Hari is like dumsor in Ghana that will send the ruling party to oppositio but thankfully the dumsor is virtually over so what else will the NPP stand on win the election
Asiedu Nketia, a whole campaign Chairman given an opportunity to tell Ghanaians whey we should vote for Mahama, listen to what he is saying? which part of the NDC manifesto was he selling to us? or this is in the GREEN BOOK?. After this we get our incompetent president to come and tell/cry through to us through a Nigerian owned celebrity magazine that the Ghanaian media is a cabal frustrating dissemination of his massage to Ghanaians. OH NDC? Ghanaians taya for you people. Bye-bye to incompetence, lose talk and mediocrity. NDC-AWAY!!!
