STATEMENT BY PATRIOTIC YOUTH OF
AWUTU SENYA WEST
RE: ENOUGH OF YOUR DESPICABLE ATTITUDE TOWARDS YOUR FELLOW
HUMANS, HON HANNAH S. TETTEH
We the representatives of the Patriotic Youth Of Awutu Senya
West, are compelled by Hon. Hannah Tetteh’s despicable
attitude towards her fellow citizens to tell her in plain
words to give us a break.
We have experienced a lot of Hannah Tetteh’s unsavoury
remarks about other people and we are now convinced it is
about time all Ghanaians join us to tell her to respect her
fellow citizens.
What would have propelled novices, as Hon. Hannah Tetteh
would address us, underdogs, in fact, people who are at the
bottom of the social ladder, in whose tombs, Hon. Tetteh’s
political power resides to spit out this bitter truth? This
is a question that any rational person may ask.
What promoted us to air our frustration was sparked by a
news bulletin appearing on peacefmonline.com, in which Hon H
S Tetteh totally disrespected and disregarded Nenyi George
Andah without any provocation. On seeing the title of the
news bulletin, - “Who is George Andah? I Don’t See Him As A
Threat – Hannah Tetteh,” we presumed it was one of those
catchy captions often used by journalists to entice readers,
however that was not the case. In her typical fashion, Hon.
Tetteh found it moral to run down Mr. Andah with contempt.
In an interview with journalists, Hon Tetteh opined that Mr.
Andah is not a threat. Quoting the statement from
peacefmonline.com, Hon. Tetteh's responded perhaps to a
question a journalist asked referencing her campaigning
against Mr. Andah as; “You are talking as if he is some
political heavyweight. … This is someone who has not
contested elections before and I am supposed to be afraid of
him?” She continued, “I am the Foreign Affairs Minister, I
have been Minister of Trade and Industry, … and I am
supposed to be afraid of someone who is even if you want to
be charitable a, novice.”
Upon completion of the article, where Hon Tetteh displayed
such haughtiness, we thought - as the Honourable Member of
Parliament, representing a rural constituency with majority
of her constituents nowhere near the accomplishments of
either hersrelf or Mr. Andah, whom she claims it will even
be an understatement to call him a novice.
We would like to ask our Honourable MP and Minister, a
number of questions.
1. If Mr.Andah by her standard is a nobody and a novice,
what and how does she regard the majority of her
constituents who placed her in the position she so readily
boasts about?
2. Has she so soon forgotten when in the period leading up
to her 2000 election, it was President Rawlings, Nana Konadu
and Lt Osardu who literally held her hand and brought her
into Awutu Senya to convince our parents to vote for her?
3. Why has she fallen out with all those who believed in her
and pushed her into the limelight? Why have those who
championed her; Fmr. President Rawlings, Mrs. Nana Konadu
Rawlings, and Lt Osardu often publicly referred to her as a
most arrogant person?
If we should not be afraid of the truth, we the good people
of Awutu – Senya West who voted for her are worse off than
neophytes. Perhaps this explains why we elected her to
represent us.
What makes Ms. Tetteh believe she is more experienced in the
Ghanaian political landscape than Nenyi George Andah, whom
she arrogantly refers to as a novice? Is it because she
believes she has positively affected the lives of the people
in the Awutu Senya West constituency? The answer is a Big
No.
Is it because as a representative of the constituency, she
has represented her constituents so well and has become
conversant with the real needs of her constituents, and is
indeed doing something to help improve their livelihoods? We
leave these questions to be answered by our fellow
constituents.
What makes Hon. Tetteh who is on record to be one of the
highest absentee Parliamentarians, believe she is an
experienced and responsible politician? We wish to remind
her that this time round, we the electorates of Awutu Senya
West have 'opened our eyes' and her strategy of using last
minute projects and splashing money around to buy votes will
not work. If she brings the money around we will take it and
"chop" but we know that a vote for change means the
betterment of all citizens in Awutu Senya West.
We are promising her that we shall not vote for late roads,
markets, hostels, etc in 2016. We shall not vote for late
water. We shall not vote for late free text books. In fact,
we shall not vote for a representative who will only support
few of her party members after capturing political power.
We have come to know Nenyi George Andah from Ms. Tetteh’s
view point, but who really is George Andah?
From the facts available, George Andah is an accomplished
personality in the corporate world who will not do things
the Hannah Tetteh way on becoming the Member of Parliament
in 2017. He has demonstrated that he is a unifier and will
not only support and work with NPP members. We believe He
will rather create an equal platform for all his
constituents and the nation as a whole where possible.
We shall vote for Nenyi George Andah because we believe he
can replicate and even more so in the political world, what
he accomplished in the corporate world. We believe he will
leverage on the success of the NPP under Fmr President
Kufuor and he will be a valuable asset to the work of our
Parliamentarians, and most importantly to us, the
constituents of Awutu Senya West. We shall support George
Andah because upon becoming our representative, he will not
look back on us and treat us with disrespect. He will rather
acknowledge the responsibilities and trust placed in him and
work with us to better Awutu.
In summary, we want to suggest to Ms. Tetteh to concentrate
on her responsibilities as a Member of Parliament and a
Cabinet Minister, run an issue based campaign and desist
from comments that are not worthy of emulation.
