In this election, we are faced with an opponent with unrestrained and unprincipled access to state resources, with apparently unlimited cash,” Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo flag bearer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has said.
According to Nana Addo, the opponent [NDC] that the NPP have in the election was confident that “they can buy your vote, If they cannot, they will try to bully you.”
That notwithstanding, Nana Addo said the NPP will emerge victorious in the December polls.
Comparing the elections to the biblical battle between Israel’s David and Goliath, Nana Addo said, “So let me speak the words of David to our Goliath, you come to me with a sword, with a spear and a javelin but I come to you in the name of the Lord of Host, the God of young Israel [Ghana] whom you have defiled, this day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel in Ghana. “
He added: “That all this assembly shall know that the Lord does not say which sword and spear, for the battle is the Lord and he shall give you into our hand. I am so grateful to him for giving me Mahamudu Bawumia as my running mate.”
“Ladies and gentlemen the battle is the Lord’s, they have more money than us but the battle is the Lord’s, they have more outboard motors, more roofing sheets, more laptops, more sewing machines to give away but the battle is the Lord’s, they have more giant billboards than us but the battle is the Lord’s. In truth, fellow Ghanaians we are many and they are few and the battle remains the Lord’s,” Nana Addo added.

I am moved by Nana Addo's speech, he is a man of honor and peace. His opponents are always trying to peddle untruth about him,but they forget that ,the power to seat and unseat kings do not lie in their hands .The battle is indeed the Lord"s and I know that the Lord would make you smile come December 7th,for acknowledging his might and power. long live nana Addo, long live npp, long live Ghana. it is time for change, let us go out and spread the good news.....it is time for change. I will vote for you cos he has the small businesses in Ghana at heart.
I THINK NANA ADDO IS RUSHING TOO MUCH TO BE THE PRESIDENT. LOOK HE WANTS TO BE THE PRESIDENT AND HE VISITS THE LA MANTSE AND NANA ADDO DOES NOT KNOW LA IS NO MORE CALLED LABADI ANS HE STANDS IN FRONT OF NII LA AND KEEP ON SAYING LABADI LABADI LABADI AND NONE OF HIS HANLERS WILL DRAW HIS ATTENSION. AS FOR THE CROWD HE SHOULD NOT WORRY MANY WERE THERE INCLUDING MYSELF JUST TO LISTEN. KEN AGYAPONG WAS AT HIS BEST INSULTING THE EC AND NDC THAT WAS LOOSE TALK.
eeeeeiiiii NPP. YOOOOOOO
our long march for progress and sustainable human development can not be thwarted by any individual who do not believe in the deep dreams of Ghana. Ghana is not a cursed states but we the electorates make wrong choices when given the opportunity to elect leaders to steer the affairs of Ghana, we elect kakistocrats to rule over us that is our tragedy as people. I say to you fellow Ghanaians spread the Gospel of hope and change to all people. #the battle is the Lord's.
Indeed NDC are scared Nana one touch victory
Nurses and tr trainee allowances will be restored fully? Npp has vision than Ndc. Ndc has succeeded in making 90% of ghanaians to be poor, only few people are enjoing. They used the srap allowances to buy v8 for chiefs, buying motors for fishermen and sewing machine. Mahama is a wicked president because i worked for 2yrs and he gave me only 3 months salary, nana addo come n save us frm this mismanagement.
This is no battle nor all die be die affair. We are simply going for elections. David and Goliath fought. There is no fight schedule in Ghana. Let's pray to God to help us make the right choice simply.
Now after serially being a lose, you're now playing the card of an underdog. Where did you get the cash to spend in 2008 elections? Has that cash dried up? I thought you boast of being all sufficient in your party? Where is your sufficiency. Now you're playing underdog card so that you'll come and milk mother Ghana to pay your 2008 debts as well as 2012 debts. This country isn't going backwards. Mahama is enough
THE BATTLE IS NOW THE LORD'S?? HA HA HA NOW YOU KNOW ONYAME? DID YOU SEE MAHAMA TAKING 100k POUNDS TO LONDON TO BLOW? SIT DOWN AND DREAM. EYE ZU EYE ZA!
AND HERE IS WHAT GOD TOLD THE PROPHET SAMUEL TO SAUL....... NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, THE LORD HAS REJECTED YOU. AS FOR THIS COMMENT, ''That notwithstanding, Nana Addo said the NPP will emerge victorious in the December polls'' I WILL SAY THAT IS WISHFUL THINKING. YOU ARE JUST SAYING THIS TO APPEASE YOUR FANS WHO KNOW TOO WELL THAT YOU WILL BE RETIRED. YOU HAVE BEEN DEFEATED THREE TIMES ALREADY WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG AND ENERGETIC, BY FRAIL OLD PROF, THREE MONTHS FOR YET ANOTHER ONE MILLS MET HIS UNTIMELY DEATH, AND YOU WERE DEFEATED BY HIS VICE. AGAIN AND AGAIN IS SOSO DEFEAT. IF GOD TRULY WANT YOU THERE, YOU WOULDN'T FRET. BUT THE FACT IS,,,,, HE HAS REJECTED YOU.
