The Battle for 2016 Begins!
There are professional politicians in Ghana, whose morbid preoccupation is with how to become PRESIDENT. This alluring obsession with power is insatiable and ill-defined.
From our political history the following facts prove that Ghanaian politicians have succeeded in DECEIVING the people not SOME of the time, but All the time.
This has been made possible by the prevailing ethos of docility and the acceptance of leaders, who cajole the political space with the singular ambition to be President.
The painful part of the story about presidential pursuits in Ghana is that no sooner the person becomes President than he begins to focus, not on good governance but on how to be President in the distant future.
They get away with it because we have a population that is totally indifferent to the primitive political culture that has prevailed in Ghana since 1957.
Who are the political aspirants? These are people, who benefited from the CORRUPTION of the past years and so, have the means to play presidential politics. So, as it was in the BEGINNING is now and so shall it be, world without END.
They inflict on us their presidential ambition, till time indefinite, but can they deliver? Have they delivered in the past?
