LET’S NOT LIMIT POLITICAL DISCUSSIONS TO NPP/NDC.
As the 2024 general elections draw closer and political activities heat up, it is very crucial for the electorates to be fed with balanced opinions, comments, suggestions and solutions to the numerous problems affecting the country.
The masses over the years have been denied heterogeneous opinions, comments and candid contributions from other political parties. This systemic bias has made two parties overshadow other registered political parties in the country.
Let’s not forget, these two parties are not the only repository of ideas to Ghana’s problems since independence.
Continuously, it has become unattractive to listen to national issues pressing for dire solutions when these two parties antagonize each other to yield fruitless arguments marred with insult and unnecessary jabbing.
When phone lines are opened, the same political party’s serial callers hijack the lines only to begin with a tall list of greetings and finally ends with reprisal attacks with no positive contributions to the program.
As the 1992 constitution has made it clear for Ghana to practice multiparty democracy, the media, as the fourth estate of the realm, is charged to be non- partisan and unbiased.
Rhetorically, is the media deliberately attempting to make other political parties unpopular in Ghana? Should we be forced to believe that these two political parties have bought some political hosts and their producers? If so, then those political hosts and their producers lack the moral right to talk about corruption in this country.
Similar approach was prevalent in our local football leagues until recently that we have seen a rise in those teams who have been suppressed over the years.
Let’s all welcome the collective inputs of all registered political parties in Ghana to help discuss and suggest alternative solutions to our dear nation.
