Musah Superior writes.... It does appear that our MPs are in trouble! People are justifiably demanding various forms of development in their communities.They insist that their Members of Parliament must provide resources/funding for both infrastructural and social developments. They say, they were told by the PCs now MPs that, when they get elected, they will "bring massive" DEVELOPMENT to the communities.  Our MPs are castigated, insulted, booed; and in some instances chased out of some communities.  Recently, the Majority Leader, Kyei Mensah Bonsu was molested, humiliated for what his constituents say was his "inability to fix" the bad roads in his constituents.  Thousands of citizens have the wrong impression that their MPs can do "everything". They insist the MPs should find them employment, pay their fees, pay their medical bills, build houses for them, pay rent, etc. This is completely unachievable! The MPs cannot meet these demands. Infact they do ...

*Musah Superior writes🖊️🖊️🖊️…*  When l contested for the position of GS in the recent NPP National elections, the “Dombos” from the Greater Northern Region (N/R, UWR, N/E, UER, S/R) voted against me. They “Dombos” voted for our current GS (JFK). They gave him their mandate because they believed he could do the job better than me and the rest of the GS aspirants. They accepted his vision, believed in his competence and voted for him hugely.  In the Northern Region specifically, where l come from, the combined votes of JFK and JB stood at 274. I got 35 votes. I accepted the decision of my “brothers and sisters” in good faith. They exercised their right to choose without any ethnic consideration or bias. It was proper and right. This is how democracy works. Electors in any contest should choose people base on their competencies and not where they come from or who they are associated with. That should be the case in the debate leading to the election of our Party’s 2024 flagbea...

  Quash the Danquah/Busia/ Dombo "tradition". It has outlived its usefulness. Musah Superior

 Press Release  14th August, 2022  *Hopeson Adorye's understanding of the NPP tradition is poor.*  I have watched an extract of a speech delivered by Hopeson Adorye in which he made very divisive and ethnocentric comments; labelling Northerners unfit to occupy the number one job of our country. My understanding is that, Hopeson Adorye is the Director of Operations for the campaign team of Hon. Alan K Kyeremanteng, the Minister for Trade and Industry; and he spoke in that capacity.  My initial reaction was one of horror and pain as a person of Northern extraction in Ghana. Hopeson says that we northerners, (the Dombos) are unfit to aspire to the high office of President of the Republic of Ghana.  Never mind that, a circular was issued  only last week by the General Secretary of the Party condemning such political activities meant to canvass support for Presidential aspirants, Mr Adorye and his group arrogantly disregarded the code of conduct issued by t...
