Feature Article of Wednesday, 30 November 2016Columnist: Tufuor, KwadwoMahama and the NDC will lose elections 2016President John MahamaBy Kwadwo TufuorThe National Democratic Congress (NDC) believes it can win Election 2016 "one touch" based on their "numerous infrastructural development projects". The leadership has forgotten that infrastructural development has been relegated to the background in Ghanaian politics because of the magnitude of the suffering of the people. Bear in mind that infrastructural development is seen as belonging to "aban". The people vote based on personal improvement in their living standards, not on infrastructural development. That is why vote-buying during elections is effective even though the cash and the gifts result in short term improvements in the living standards of the people.
