Seasoned Journalist, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako Jnr. has thrown a challenge to the rank and file of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) to add hunger strike to their demonstrations and extend it for the next 10 years.
The NDC supporters have been hitting the streets in protest over the Electoral Commission declaring His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo President-elect.
The party and their Presidential candidate, former President John Dramani Mahama have rejected the election verdict claiming the general elections were rigged.
They also claim some Parliamentary seats have been stolen for the governing New Patriotic Party.
Contributing to Peace FM's "Kokrokoo" on Wednesday, Kweku Baako called on the NDC to use the appropriate forum to address their concerns.
But should the party refuse to utilize the right channel, Mr. Baako suggested what they could do to spice up their protests on the streets.
"Let them demonstrate for the next 10 years. They should go on hunger strike . . . They can do anything they want. The only way they can get this verdict, that's the Presidential one and now the Parliamentary one is to go to the appropriate forum. Nobody is saying they cannot demonstrate. At times, some people ask is that not a democratic right? It is. What we're saying is that if you seek to cure the mischief, the perceived mischief of election dispute, there's only one area. The rest you can shout; you can make noise. You can strip naked and run through the streets," he blasted the NDC.

Kweku, please, just don't be surprised if the NDC takes you by word. Then, their temperaments as experienced in many ways cut doubt about their ability to comprehend such expressions. The leadership lacks a lot of intellect and so is the whole set-up. From head to bottom the value is the same.
iam sure kweku baaku still smoke wee. how stuuupidly can you sell your mind for money receive from your fellow ***barred word*** akofo addo. where were you when akufo addo added demostration to his cv as achievement? how stuuupid can you close your eyes to EC results over 100% iam ashame i speak fante.
A thought this guy had a little dignity left in him.....indeed money corrupts great minds.
So Ghana Police has on since Christmas day released it D.OGs into the streets to extort from ordinary citizens again after elections. The Stup.i.dity that has contributed to the many losses of the Government MPs has started all over in full gear under the imminent economic hardship. These officer looked so hungry and dehydrated and blood thirsty but I bet, they will all die one by one in their evil acts.
Well said Kwaku.
Kwaku Baaku ne gyimiii kingpins in demonstrations are now discouraging demonstrations. Hypocrisy and dishonesty.
THIS SAME ATTITUDE IS WHAT MADE THE FATHER OF SOMEONE ALWAYS YABBING ON RADIO TO ROAM THE STREETS OF ACCRA WITH A BAG UNTIL HIS DEATH. HYPOCRISY, BETRAYAL AND RUNNING DOWN OF NKRUMAH AFTER HIS OVERTHROW WAS WHAT LED TO THAT. SOME PEOPLE SHOULD LEARN.
Shamefulll guy....mr. know all...
