Good speech H.E outgoing President J.M. a lady called MZbel described Nana Addo as an old man who is not a presidential material, showing disrespect to a man who can give birth to her parents. God in heavens is He who thrones one to be a king. See how ur babies with sharp teeth has brought u. Corruption was too much Sir in ur government. Hope Nana will learn a lesson from ur fall.
Yes,this is not the out come you expected and hoped for,agreed.To president Mahama, you lost because of the insults your young appointees poured on elderly people,your young appointees such as omane boamah,kwakye ofosu,fiifi kwetey,sam george,koku anyidoho and the likes created the impression that it is a crime to be an old person in Ghana,such that seventy plus year olds are ***barred word***.Those of us who have older parents and their contributions towards our upbringing then decided to show you where power lies by voting you out to show respect to our elders thus NANA ADDO,S SWEET VICTORY. To the young ones still coming up lets respects our elders,its because they are old and that,s why we call our selves youngsters, if someone is not old ,someone cant be young,so john Mahama next time tell your babies with sharp teeth to learn to respect elders,Nana Addo this,nana Addo that has come to knot,he is the president of Ghana,period.
