Andy Kankam, the editor of the Informer Newspaper, who is also a member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has stated that ex-President John Mahama was virtually ‘naked’ in the run-up to the 2016 presidential elections.
Mr. Kankam stated that he was not surprised when the NDC lost embarrassingly to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) last year, disclosing that the NDC did not prepare adequately for the crucial 2016 elections.
According to him, he knew beforehand that the NDC would lose the last elections, but sadly the ex-president was surrounded by sycophants and praise-singers that continually lied to him.
Mr. Kankam, in an interview with ‘Asempa FM’ in Accra, stated categorically that ex-President Mahama would be blamed by the rank and file of the party.
Lordina Billboard
Mr. Kankam stated that giant campaign billboards of the former First Lady, Lordina Mahama that were mounted across the Brong Ahafo Region during the campaign period angered Ghanaians, including NDC functionaries.
According to him, there was no need for Lordina Mahama’s giant billboards to be mounted since the ex-First Lady was not contesting in the elections, stressing that such weird campaign tactics adversely affected the NDC.
“Did you see billboards of ex-First Ladies like Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings, Mrs. Naadu Mills and Mrs. Theresa Kufuor during electioneering periods when their husbands were in political office?” he quizzed.
Celebrities Campaign
Mr. Kankam, who was emotionally during the interview with the radio station, complained bitterly about how movie and music stars, who do not even know the boundaries of constituencies in the country, hijacked the campaign of the NDC.
He said that the party’s members, who have expertise in political campaign, were sidelined for the party’s resources to be distributed to celebrities who only led the NDC into opposition.
Mr. Kankam said the sycophants continually lied to Mr. Mahama that he would win the elections.
Several people who really knew what was going on at the grassroots level were victimized after we tried to offer effective political ideas that could have helped the NDC to retain political power, he said.
Stiff Competition
Mr. Kankam said all NDC members, including ex-President Mahama, that have interest in leading the NDC into the 2020 presidential elections would be fiercely challenged by other members.
According to him, the party needs total overhaul in order to win the next general elections.

What did Pro-NDC hired Newspapers did not say about NPP and for that matter, Nana Addo. You were all telling Ghanaians LIES and PROPAGANDA since 2008 to 6th December, 2016. What did we hear you say before the 2016 elections? You and the Likes, used your RENTED PRESS to run down NPP and Nana Addo for Mahama. Why didn't you say all these before the elections. You are also among for the BIG DEFEAT IN THE ELECTION (RECORD DEFEAT HAPPENING IN THE WHOLE WORLD ELECTION UNDER NDC, in GHANA).

Why will Mahama not be naked? he is very wic.ked for killing Prof Mills. He has the heart of the dev!l... The ghost of Prof will hunt him and send him to his grave soon.
Andy or whatever your name is, You are a BIG.......What did we hear you say before the 2016 elections? You used your RENTED PRESS to run down NPP and Nana Addo for Mahama. Why didn't you say all these before the elections. WICKED PEOPLE. MORE CONFUSING IS COMING INTO YOU AND NDC! NANAI#$%MA!
For days now,folks I have been having a really good time. Why? The hyenas in the NDC tearing each others throats out.The fact of the matter ,folks is that every evil institution has a built in destructive mechanism.Communism, Nazism,you name it It is always a matter of time that some punk activates the destruct button and poof everything goes up in smoke. Mahama never won the 2012 election.He simply bought it.After that he thought he had secured a second term of st3al1ng and pillage by handpicking Mrs Osei to rig anther election for him .But you see folks God is not asleep o.He heard the groaning of the people and Mahama suffered the most humiliating defeat ever in Ghanaian electoral history.The man must have a brave heart to present himself again in any contest. I think he will retire to Dubai to supervise his businesses.It will be some time before the people of Ghana will know the extent of l00ting that this man and his friends have done to the national kitty.If there is God in Heaven [and I believe there is] John Mahama will NEVER have one peaceful night for the rest of his life.
truly ur lips would rot by the end of the year and your tots would be put to shame by NANA......INSHA ALLAH!
I STRONGLY DISAGREED WITH ANYONE WHO WILL BLAME MAHARMA FOR THE LOOSE. THAT PERSON TO ME IS NOT A TRUE NDC MAN. PEOPLE USED HIS KINDNESS FOR HIS WEAKNESS,GHANAIANS WILL MISS MAHAMA BEFORE THE END OF THIS YEAR, MARK MY LIPS.
