Akiffo-Addo will not say anything if that’s what you are waiting for. You are just a bs traitor.
Not surprising, Kufuor has no match as far as the 4th republic is concerned. The man knows what he's about, he talks less but when he speaks, you see wisdom. For president kufour like all humans is not perfect, however his regime brought about some hope in Ghanaians, his pro poor policies and the goodwill he enjoyed among world giants was and still is unprecedented. Kufour is credited with the national health insurance scheme, school feeding program, metro mass transport, free mass cocoa spraying exercise, capitation grant, free uniform for basic schools, millennium challenge account, 2 brand new stadia in Tamale and Takooradi, hosting of CAN 2008, jubilee park in all 10 regional capitals then, brand new offices for the presidency ( jubilee house), started dualization of Accra-Kumasi road, got Nigeria to supply Ghana will fuel on credit every 3 months, had good relations with George ***barred word***, Tony Blair, Shinzo Abe, Angela Merkel, Jacques Chirac, Queen Elizabeth among others. One wonders whether the current NPP leadership learnt anything from him with their bizarre performance . The fact that kufour's successor in the NPP Akuffo Addo led with 49% in the first round of the 2008 elections means the NPP was still the popular choice of Ghanaians thanks to Kufuor and his appointees. The vibrant NPP Kufuor left behind on which Akuffo Addo rode on to power has become a pale shadow of itself, the level of disappointment in NPP supporters is unimaginable, people who volunteered their cars, pickups, bought fuel to support Akuffo Addo's campaign have now parked their cars and using trotro because they are worse off today than before. Those who were given contracts have not been paid after executing those jobs for close to 3 years running so did they come or did they go. The current NPP is not the NPP we know, an elephant with very big ears unfortunately it's doesn't listen, at best it hears but won't listen.
