Sam Dzata George, you are a very youngman. At this rate though, your political career may plummet before it takes off. You should realise that the days when the more acidic your tongue is, then the more relevant you seem on the political terrain is no more. What you seem to have forgotten - or perhaps you dont know - is that, with the exception of your type and other government appointees who are given allowances for clothes, free fuel, free mobile airtime, free cars, free accommodation, free everything else, things are generally hard for everyone. Lets not play the ostrich here. Even the President admits we are in difficult times. Unluckily for you, most of us, including members of your own party know the truth and all we seek for is a turn around of events. We dont need an NPP official to come tell us that the 120 cedis that used to fill our fuel tanks now cant; we dont need some expert to come tell us that our wives now buy just half of what the same amount could do months back; I dont need a Bretton Woods paper to let me know my living conditions are not cool. I respect Mensa Otabil for a variety of reasons and it is not because you dont like him. He speaks common sense but sadly not all common people listen to him. Sometimes when some people talk, as Communicators you are better of NOT speaking because of the depth of what was said and how the majority of us can relate to it. Rawlings spoke too. You heard him. You and your lot may add him and insult him. You may tell us that the economy is growing at 6 or 7 or even 90 percent. You may choose to blame others for our woes including a party we voted out in 2008. Stats you can throw about but reality we feel. The Ghanaian is in this. And if you cant help your party to drag us out of this duldrums, the least you can do is to shush. Learn from the smart minds in your party. Dont be used as a puppet to do jobs your deep sense tells you its not cool. Let the economy work agaun and you wouldnt have to respond to people who are self made. And oh, I expect a backlash. I have spoken my private thoughts and I did so after looking at the tax portion of my pay advice. Good morning Odadee!
