Ghana's Political Stalemate after 12/12 Elections

In 2004 the NDC's Atta-Mills lost a Judicial appeal against NPP's Kuffour's Presidential win.

Assuming that both the NDC and NPP share the same faith in the EC and Ghana's Judical systems in 2012/13 as they did in 2004,

Will the NPP's Akuffo-Addo concede a defeat in Judicial appeal against NDC's Presidential win?? Or do we only believe in the EC and the Judicial System, when it is convenient?? S...incerely, my thoughts are very few:

(1) Dont we have a lot to do as a nation than to be marking time when other under-developed and under-resourced countries are busy making giant progressive strides?

(2) Its becoming obvious that over the years, we as a nation have allowed the presidency of Ghana to become an "entitlement" and not a position of servitude. And so, now we have to wait for MEN, acting as "men" to fight over 1 presidential "TOY"

(3) Since when did it become a necessity that you can only impact the lives of your fellow citizens by becoming president. Seriously, if the real motives of presidency are to help the fellow ordinary man better his lot, why spend all these personal and state resources trying to prove who is right or wrong, who is a thief or a saint as if that is more important than the premature babies dying in the hospitals because of faulty equipment or productivity and millions being lost from traffic congestions etc. DONT we really have a lot more to think about??

(4) And we seriously want to be great and strong? if you ask me, we are seriously exposing our political weaknesses to our enemies (if we even know who they are). With all that is happening, it wouldnt be difficult for any external force to know where and how exactly to spark a desent in our country.

GROW UP PLEASE. We the children are asking you the ADULT-CHILDREN to GROW UP so we can also watch and GROW.

Democratic Orgasm through Political Impotence:

I don’t dispute the fact that NDC has touched some of the numbers in the just ended Ghanaian elections – of course, they did. No lie about that. But they also did in the past and yet ex president Kuffour of the NPP snatched victory from them – it just goes to show that the voice of the people will always be reflected at its rightfully appointed time.

The NPP is intentionally clothing itself with disgrace by the post election actions of violence it wants to engage in...... they are now making it obvious (even if it wasn’t the case) that the people's needs and the people's voice was never the agenda and was never going to be embraced.

We as an entire nation put our faith in the independence and ability of the EC. No one challenged its mandate, its make-up, its bias, its constitution before the elections. In that regard let’s respect the FAITH that WE as a people put in it. If we approved them to do the job and we now turn around to say they didn’t do a good job, are we not insulting our own intelligence by which WE chose them in the first place? Com’on now – Ghanaians are a lot more discerning than that. IF the NPP had been declared winner, they would have expected the NDC to show the same political maturity in gracefully accepting defeat. You cant sit at the head of the table if you are not willing to be the one who says the Grace. And you cant say grace if you cant exhibit it.

Lets stop behaving like a child who dropped his toffee in the sand because he was throwing it at someone, and is now throwing a tantrum at his mum.

I guess there’s only one way to describe the tensions in Ghana. Democracy has won, but politics still has a long way to go. Or better still:

Democratic orgasm has been reached with political impotence.
