"If one has to be brutally frank, this is politics without principles. It is lack of consistency in principles.....amidst a lack of principles across the political divide, we must be honest and say some of these things direct to all of them....This thing (change of election date) must be done. It can and must be done. We also have the experience to show that when the transition is so tight, so close, it creates problems. So, take religion out, but the principle is clear," says seasoned journalist, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako.
