i heard the bells on Christmas Day

 I heard the bells on Christmas day

Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

I thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along th'unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

And in despair I bowed my head:
'There is no peace on earth, ' I said
'For hate is strong, and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.'

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
'God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, good will to men.'

Till, ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

New Patriotic Party Rising Stronger: A Call To Regain Power Together

Image
  Dear beloved NPP family, In every political journey, there comes a time when we are called to pause, reflect, and reignite our purpose. Today, I write to you not just as a member of the New Patriotic Party, but as your humble servant—Hon. Dr. Alhaji Abdallah Otito Achuliwor, NPP Parliamentary Candidate for Navrongo Central—to speak from the heart. Yes, we’ve experienced a setback.

We have always believed in building a stronger, fairer, and more prosperous Ghana for all. Now is the time to reconnect with our base, especially here in Navrongo Central. We must return to the people—not just with words, but with humility, service, and sincerity. It is in the voices of our yo...

There's hope for NPP. Musah Superior Npp General Secretary hopeful assured Party faithful and the grassroots.

It is not for nothing that all levels of the NPP are disgruntled about the management of the Party.  The increasing apathy is said to be springing from poor administration of the Party, which is as a result of the wide gap between the Party Headquarters and ordinary members. This deficiency obviously resulted to;  1. The closer to 500,000 votes we lost between 2016 and 2020  2. The over 30 seats we lost in Parliament after the 2020 election  Unfortunately, in the build-up to election 2024, we are even having a more unprecedented distrust among the hierarchy of the Party.  If we could lose closer to 50% of electorates from 2016 to 2020, and over 30 seats in Parliament over the same period, we should be very worried about the next general election.  What can be the outcome of election 2024? Are we going to perform worse, or we will do better? What will be the faith of the Party in the next years with the predominant increasing dissatisfaction among us?  ...
