THE
NDC IS STILL ARROGANT AND DISRESPECTFUL EVEN IN OPPOSITION

People
of Ghana, I guess you are all saddened this evening upon listening to the NDC
Press Conference, which was addressed by their National Chairman. It doesn't
appear they've learnt any lessons from what we did to them at the polls. You
would recall that they never showed us any modicum of respect when they were in
government. They wouldn't listen to our cry even as we were being suffocated by
their draconian policies and legendary incompetence. They treated us like
trash.
And
when we complained, they unleashed their babies with sharp teeth to baptize us
with insult upon insult. They asked us to shut-up because they were in charge.
In view of this and more, we decided to punish them at the polls. We decided to
vote them out of power in a humiliating manner. We did that hoping they would
learn lessons when they got to opposition. We did that hoping they would learn
some humility if they went to opposition. Unfortunately we were wrong. We were
completely wrong. They have not changed at all.
In
fact, they are proving to be even more arrogant and disrespectful to the
Ghanaian people. Their arrogance in government has now quadrupled in
opposition. So I ask, did we go or did we come? Listening to their national
chairman address the press this evening, you can't help but come to this
inevitable conclusion. "Insult be wat!". "Condescension be
wat!" "Arrogance be wat". These guys are just incredulous.
Almost
every sentence they uttered was pregnant with insult. And guess who was their
"target"? His Excellency my President, your President and our
President. The most astonishing part of their gross impudence and indiscipline
is that, they didn't have the decency to appropriately address him as the
President of the Republic. They felt too big to call him by the "Your Excellency"
title. They actually wish they could still call him "Opana" as they
arrogantly did during the campaign.
How
do you treat the Presidency, which is the Highest Office of the land with such
disdain and still want to occupy it? Okay, they are free to continue seeing the
former President, His Excellency John Mahama as their President and not His
Excellency Nana Akufo-Addo, the man, whom the people of Ghana have given an
overwhelming mandate to govern this country. The man, in whom lies the symbol
of our national authority and for that matter the embodiment of our nation.
They can continue with their unGhanaian attitude.
We,
the people of Ghana only know one President, whom we shall accord all
courtesies and reverence associated with that enviable office. Our President is
and remains the indefatigable young old man in the person of His Excellency
Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo. May you live long Mr. President and put your
detractors to perpetual shame. I have absolute confidence in your ability to
deliver prosperity to the Ghanaian people. Now, more than ever, I am proud to
say, I am a Ghanaian; a citizen not a spectator.
