As you go to the polls on Saturday, be reminded of what you have gone through under this NPP government and vote them out. You were scammed into believing that the political messiah and the economic whizkid will deliver on their promises. Through out this campaign, have you heard of Mrs. Bawumiah referring to her husband as economic whizkid? Have you also heard them saying Nana Addo is not corrupt? We were all scammed by their eloquence.
If you invested in the government bonds and got a hair cut on your investment, this is the time that in your anger and frustration, you will vote this government out. You were working at the toll booth. One morning, you woke up and realized you have no job. Remember what you went through that day and vote wisely. This is the time for you to also get them unemployed.
You were a banker and heard the government was going to use GHC9 billion to restructure the banks. At the end of the day, the government used GHC25 billion to lay you off. Also, you were banking with Nduom Group. One morning, you woke up and the government had closed the bank and your deposits gone. Remember all the demonstrations you did to get your money. In your hunger and frustration, vote wisely on December 7.
The cedi which was 4.20 to the dollar in 2016 is now 18.00 to the dollar. If this mismanagement of the economy killed your businesses, remember your hunger and anger. Vote on Saturday to also kill their career.
You had GHC 1 million of the COVID money but someone stole it from you. These same criminals used $58 million to dig a hole in the name of a Cathedral. As a result, you were denied a good drinking water, an asphalt road or a medical facility. Be angry on December 7. Go and vote wisely to send them to jail.
Nana Addo is hiding behind the Supreme Court to avoid signing the LGBTQ+ bill into law because he supports them. Tell him on December 7 that you are not stupid as he thinks. Vote against his third term. As a Ghanaian voter, tell Nana Addo and Dr. Bawumiah that you haven’t forgotten their past eight years. Vote wisely. That’s all you can do.
Vote for Number 8, and
Vote for the umbrella
Aba no, Mahama afa.
