“In a time of
universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” – George Orwell
A hefty noise
from a tinny man inside National Democratic Congress’s Propaganda Kingdom
echoes across an imposing cacophony rising above all critics of President John
Dramani Mahama’s political administration.
Ladies and
Gentlemen, hold your breath. Let me introduce him in my utmost modesty: He is Solomon
Yaw Nkansah, the NDC’S Minister on public lies and propaganda; you can call it Communications
Officer of the ruling National Democratic Congress with half his brain tied
behind his rear. His subject is political propaganda. His stance is distortion.
From a moral
perspective, frankly I think Mr. Nkansah is not even a political problem. He is
a psychiatric problem. Remember, it’s impossible to cite all the maladies of
the Mahama’s administration as interpreted by Solomon – Mahama’s brain.
Mr. Nkansah has
become renowned for his penchant for the outrageous. He demonstrates the
absurdity by being absurd.

| Solomon Nkansah forcibly |
He’s very malnourish
and vulnerable-looking than he sounds when defending Mahama and the National
Democratic Congress. He once nearly described John Mahama as the “Mandela of Ghana.’’
The official
communicator of the ruling party, who lacks casual, intimate style, sounds like
he’s in a soapbox. He’s intoxicated by lies, especially those flowing from his
own lips. He sounds like a real braggart. On electricity, he forcefully defends
John Mahama, when John himself sworn never to promise Ghanaians.
He has never
shown any signs of being a serious or thoughtful or earnest guy. He’s a
degenerate rodeo clown – a toxic provocateur. He should be kept far away from
civilization. Making case for the ineptitude of John Mahama, Nkansah compares John
with Jesus Christ. There is no offense to compare ourselves with our Lord.
People do not understand the burden this president is bearing. He’s like Jesus
Christ. He’s bearing the burden of everybody.
To describe Solo’s
lies and propagandas as dishonest and demagogic would be equal to promoting it
to the level of respectability. To regard Nkansah’s piece of craps would be to
run the risk of a discourse that would never again rise above the excremental.
He crudely
disguises his lies as an exercise in seriousness. Fact is, it’s a sinister
exercise in moral frivolity. Solo exhibits a spectacle of abject political
cowardice portraying himself with dissenting bravery. Looking at his crystal
ball for the 2016 presidential elections, he predicts landslide victory for John;
the choice in this election is crystal clear; it is either good luck Mahama or
bad luck Nana Addo. This good-luck is the very best that we have seen … it’s
impossible for Mahama to lose election.
Nkansah as a
liar and propagandist, he whips up emotion and excitement directly by violent
exaggeration and by manufactured lies. He relies on symbol and sentiment, he strives
continually to paralyze critical analysis and stimulate all tendencies to
thoughtless and slavish acceptance. Evaluating Mahama’s 7-year presidency, he
said: “The best since the Fourth Republic’’. Those who call John clueless are
biased or uninformed. He has achieved more than any president in Ghana’s
history.”
Like Hitler, Solomon
Nkansah believes the intelligence of the masses (Ghanaian people) is small, and
their forgetfulness is great. His enemies are the Ghanaian people. His goal is
to annihilate them. The whole basis of his lies and propaganda is based on the
fallacy of ascent – essentially fabrication inflation. On the economy: The Mahama’s
administration has courageously and innovatively been tackling with measurable,
obvious and clearly tangible positive results in the last quarter of 2014, claims
Solomon.
Nkansah
represents a chump operating without insight. He attempts to control reality
like a magician. His choreographic lies with elaborate stumbles follow the idea
of the apotheosis of the absurd. Nkansah is nothing. As soon as he starts
behaving that he is something, he becomes precarious. No surprise, he ceases to
be mindful and mistake fantasy for reality.
Nkansah is a mug
at the center of Mahama’s conspiracy to sell poison as cool aid. His thoughts
and pronouncements are fallacious, essentially a paranoid construct, one of interpreting
reality for what it is not. His blind defense of Mahama amounts to ultimate
paradoxical joke of presenting John and his administration as the Fool of the
future.
Solomon is a man
who doesn’t shift his brain into gear before putting his mouth into motion.
With his half-baked fantasies and loaded bias, no reflective or informed person
can possibly believe his lies. He’s a silly and shady man who does not
recognize courage of any sort even when he sees it because he cannot summon it
in himself. To him, easy applause in front of credulous audience is everything.
I would like to
remind Nkansah that propaganda is only meaningful and believable when it can
show positive results. Just show us the positive impact of Mahama’s
Transformational Agenda on Ghanaians who are unemployed, hungry, sick,
homeless, hopeless, and helpless. Show us water flowing from the taps,
uninterrupted electricity for just 30 minutes or one hour, etc., etc.
Name names of
big time looters in the Mahama’s administration including ‘Wayome’ who nearly
escaped justice for stealing some GH52 million meant for Stadia construction which
never took place. Reel off list of your colleague thieves jailed for looting
our treasury.
Cook up a new
story why government of natural resources economy in Africa couldn’t pay
salaries of civil servants for months? Mount the soapbox and face the nation
why the why is everything falling apart in every sector in Ghana?

Mr. Nkansah, a
true leader comes from the people and represents the people. He forges the
opinion of the broad masses. That is the reality of a true leader. That is the
source of his power. He is the personification of public opinion. He doesn’t
need a liar or propagandist like you to win the hearts of his people.
Fellow Ghanaians,
as the race for 2016 shapes up, brace yoursssselves for more of Solo’s Set the
Records Straight (SRS). We can all agree no matter how the SRS is blended,
crushed, pureed, cooked, and packaged, it’s all flat-out phony baloney!
