The General Secretary of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has wished former President John Agyekum Kufour a long life and prosperity on his 76th birthday today. �May his [Ex-Prez Kufuor's] birthday and every day be filled with the warmth of sunshine, the happiness of smiles, the sounds of laughter, the feeling of love and the sharing of good cheer,� he said. Despite Mr. Asiedu Nketia�s deepest wishes, he noted on OKAY FM�s Ade Akye Abia that, Mr. Kufour still owes him an undisclosed amount for marrying his relative; Madam Theresa Kufour. �Ex-Prez Kufour is my brother-in-law but he has refused to pay the brother-in-laws' price for marrying my sister. He knows that. I am still waiting for that money though,� he said. The NDC Chief Scribe also urged all presidential flagbearers to consider finding a wife from the Brong-Ahafo Region if they want to lead Ghana. �You know if you really want to be a president of this country [Ghana], then you have to marry a lady from my home town. Ex Prez Kufour�s wife is from my hometown as well as President John Dramani Mahama�s wife, Mrs. Lordina. I hope other presidential candidates will learn from them [Kufour and Mahama]� he cheerfully said.
