It is very funny and depressing to hear from Dr. Tony Aidoo and Kwesi Pratt who couldn’t properly counsel Mahama John to steer the affairs of this Country attacking the credibility of Dr. Bawumia and calling him ideal flip-flopper, when factually, the real flip-floppers are Dr. Tony Aidoo and Kwesi […]

Razak Kojo Opoku Writes: Ex-President Kufuor’s 1998 Assurance Statement Did Not Guarantee Unopposed Ticket For Candidate Nana Akufo-Addo In 2007, 2010 And 2014 NPP Presidential Primaries
