So I have been thinking about John Mahama's inordinate ambition to become president of Ghana again after his failed leadership the first time.
Despite Mahama's so-called chronological experience in national politics, his inability as a presidential hopeful to acknowledge the infeasibility of the blurry vision, and twisted policies, makes me question his intellectual capability, and sophistication in grasping political concepts, and their practical applications.
If there is an achievement differential between the Akufo-Addo administration, and the erstwhile Mahama regime, then, the NDC presidential candidate should not pander to the public for votes.
Afterall, the average Ghanaian has the primary intellectual ability to make a critical assessment between an imaginary gold-plated heaven under the NDC administration, and “hell” under the NPP.
So my question is, what on earth will make a man attempt to come back to power after being the vice president and then president? Well, perhaps the answer lies in the fact that Mahama has always been on a mission- a mission to plot his second coup detat?
Yes, you should read Mahama's book "My first coup detat" to understand where I am coming from. We are talking about a man who could even describe himself as spineless, indecisive and even go ahead to say that danger lurks around every life decisions that he makes.
What was Mahama thinking when he mentioned to his fellow colleague MPs some time back in confidence that "Northerners are tired of playing second fiddle in the NDC?" Was he eyeing for the top job? Is it true that he accepted to be Mills' running mate after he was shown Mills' medical records and after a long persuasion centred on his health?
The Mahama situation is unpardonably revulsive and it is clearly as a result of the abject lack of leadership from the NDC.
Why did Mahama failed to investigate the circumstances leading to the demise of late president Professor John Evans Atta Mills? Is it just a mere coincidence that President Mills died when Mahama was vice president, and then Mahama's own vice Amissah Arthur also passing on after he ascended the high office of president?
Who in this country doesn't know that Mahama's unfair treatment meted out to Amissah-Arthur caused his demise? Who doesn't know that Mahama deliberately alienated Amissah-Arthur completely and rendered him useless, and even elevated his wife, Lordina Mahama to play the role of vice president?
With his questionable exploits like an albatross dangling around his neck, who want to be Mahama's running mate again?
Like our colonial masters, some NDC politicians and Mahama mistake the Ghanaian public for injudicious preschoolers in need of parental tutelage. Unbeknownst to them, the Ghanaian public has maturated, and understands the implications of policies, even better, than some of these “unqualified” politicians who have swamped the centre of power for economic paybacks and kickbacks.
If Mahama was good, why did Ghanaians reject him in 2016? Mahama lost because he was not good enough and Ghanaians will reject him again in 2020.
If there are any NDC people out there who are contemplating partnering Mahama, please think and think twice before you are sacrificed as a "living Dead Goat".
I shall be back.

Today owusu bempah could afford a suite so he can come and talk thrush as if his mind is full of nothing but garbage. Who does owusu pembah thinks he is. From a single room in UK to becoming a pro for a business he knew nothing to next about. A ***barred word*** turning to a saint under an incompetent old man so he is too over joy. Owusu pembah we know all you ***barred word*** dealings in UK so shout up before we shout your smelling mouth for u. Hope this time u have money to buy mouth wash.
The truth of the matter is Ghanaian politicians are a bunch of low IQ people who have failed to move the country forward in every opportunity they got. From Rawlings to Akuffo Addo, these politicians have nothing to show. The country is bedeviled with massive unemployment youth, abject poverty, lack of opportunity in every scale, corruption and ***barred word*** from the public purse. NPP and NDC is the most corrupt and ***barred word*** parties of all times. These two parties are the ***barred word*** machines developed by the ***barred word*** brigade to plunder the nation's resources. Until the electorate will stop voting low IQ people into power, this country will continue to lag in progress.
shameful being of a woman. can't you make a substantive statement of valid without insulting? ha? That it means even if you're brought up from an uncut home you have to misbehave when occupying a public position? you have to know that the office you hold now is a public office and not political platform so behave yourself. no wonder you have people supporting such daft thinking insults as bravery and hallmark of boldness.
YOUR BIG ENGLISH WOULD NOT ADD ANY POINT TO YOUR STORY. NPP AND NANA ARE THE MOST LACK OF LEADERSHIP WE EVER HAVE IN GHANA
OWUSU BEMPAH GOD BLSS YOU WE NEED MORE AND MORE FROM YOU . WHO JAH BLESS NO ONE ...
KKD should note that Mahama and NDC never found oil. You can therefore not say that the GAS was brought by Mahama. You people discredited the Oil sample brought to Parliament by Kufour administration and said it was oil from palm kernel.
THE MOST ***barred word*** ***barred word*** I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE THIS OWUSU BEMPAH ***barred word***...THIS GHANA GAS POSITION YOU ARE OCCUPYING TODAY WAS BROUGHT BY THE GOOD HEARTED JOHN MAHAMA YOU ALWAYS INSULT CHEAPLY...ARE YOU NOT ASHAMED OF YOUR MISERABLE LIFE?
