That's why I love the NPP family, they very responsible people who don't believe in wuluwala, kalabule things. They want everything transparent so each one will understand what's going on. When you are in a group or family who believe in their principles and the rule of law that is the best way to success, no wonder the difference is clear hence they are hated by evil people. I love this don't give money or freebies to delegates because it is bribe and bribe corrupts. Keep your good works for your country and God, the patriots of Ghana, and the Almighty God will bless you with abundance of wisdom. GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL!
