THE MACHINATIONS WON’T WORK!
GHANAIANS ARE RESOLVED
Good morning distinguished Ladies and gentlemen of the
media.
Exactly three days from today, our collective actions
and inactions as a people will determine whether Ghana
will continuously maintain and enjoy her enviable
position as a beacon of hope and a shining example for
the rest of Africa as far as fulfilling the democratic
imperative of staging free, fair and transparent
elections are concerned. Ghana has always been
pacesetters and AFAG has no doubt that with total
vigilance and active participation of the millions of
Ghanaians out there, Ghana will come through this
democratic exercise unscathed.
Whiles in often times we have looked to a select few for
the maintenance of peace and order, by virtue of their
positions of thrust, several experiences abound to show
that in periods and times like these corrupt and non
performing governments for fear of being punished
electorally, resort to acts intimidation and all sorts
of machinations to hijack the mandate of the people who
suffer the brunt of their incompetence. Whiles AFAG
believes that peace is a prerequisite for national
stability and development; we also believe that any
attempt to hijack the mandate of the people should not
in any way be countenanced.
Ladies and gentlemen, true to the example above,
intelligence picked up by AFAG indicates that the Mahama
led NDC government out of fear of losing this election
on account of its nonperformance is hell bent on
hijacking the mandate of the people of Ghana. According
to our intelligence;
• Messrs Charles Boah, Paul Kwakye, Awuni (Major) and
David Lamptey are seriously engaged in some security
operations that stands to threaten the peace we enjoy.
AFAG wants to sound a clear note of caution to them that
we are aware of all their machinations and will pursue
them not through mob action but through the sovereign
path of seeking justice should the peace of the nation
be bridged.
• We have also picked up information on the 6000
Ivoirians brought in by the NDC to enhance the electoral
chances of the NDC Parliamentary Candidate and President
Mahama at the Jomoro Constituency. The Ivoirians came
through the Elubo boarder.
• Members of the NDC in the Ashanti Region will on
Election Day visit polling stations clad in NPP shirts
to cause mayhem with the objective of discrediting the
results.
• Members of the NDC rented press are lining up
publications to the effect that personnel of the
security services who took part in today’s special
voting voted massively for President Mahama and
subsequently call of Ghanaians to do same.
EFFECTS OF THESE ACTIONS:
Ladies and gentlemen of the press you would agree with
us, that the afore will not only create insecurity, but
will also constitute a breach in trust and above all set
the grounds for other interested parties to contest the
outcome of the results of the elections. Ladies and
gentlemen, this we must all work assiduously to avoid.
REMEDY
Countrymen, although we all crave for peace before,
during and after the elections, AFAG is convinced that
preserving and maintaining the peace will be best done
by you the millions of Ghanaians out there who far
outnumber those who for reasons of short term
gratification would sacrifice professionalism on the
altar of prolonging the stay in office of a non
performing government. Consequently AFAG urges all
Ghanaians to be mindful of the constitutional provision
that sovereignty of Ghana resides in the people of
Ghana, by making a conscious effort to protect their
ballot by being vigilant after casting the ballot.
Let’s get out and exercise our franchise with any fear
or favor.
Let’s protect our ballot.
Thank you.
