Oko Vanderpuije Prepares Banku For Votes?

Desperate housewives – take a bow: the Metropolitan Chief Executive of Accra, Alfred Oko Vandepuiye, would cook for you and fix your hair. Perhaps.

New photos circulating on social media show the parliamentary candidate for the governing National Democratic Candidate (NDC), braiding hair. And helping some electorates to prepare banku on one of his campaign activities in the Ablekuma South constituency.

The photos show Mr Vanderpuiye braiding the hair of a young lady who appears comfortably seated with smiles.

Another photo shows him behind a cooking pot preparing banku.

You can call it mingling with the people – I call it desperate masked by pretence. If not spoof photos.

And I’m not surprised.

As the campaign for election 2016 intensifies - parliamentary candidates would continue to do the unimaginable to appear cool and create a sense of being part of the everyday life of the “commoner” to woo voters.

Take it or leave – many would fall for it.

POEM: "Hello, Honorable-sir"

Ghana's EC Chairperson Charlotte Osei and Kennedy Agyapong, MP.

Here we go again; the rants of a vile male chauvinist
who dares talk down womanhood
only to give evidence he's a male supremacist--
your misogynistic-self cast doubt on your manhood.
Unfortunately your "Rambo" needs are entrenched by this patriarchal society
with your lots who far too often are
silent or scared to jab your frivolous insanity.


You sick bully!
Your shenanigans are but vastly folly
and I suggest you get a grip of your self, you're almost an island--
even your puppets with a finger
or two in your mouth would rather take a chance and risk a bite than stand
with a man with everything but wit.
Sadly you clones who are everything misfit
with such horrid auric
are the ones who continue to spew toxic
into bright futures far better than yours--


Too bad somewhere today a girl or woman
with a hard earned position faces sexist remarks

worse, from a fellow girl or woman.
So while we all are at it, people of courage and will 

must take chances, starting from our homes and schools 

were much of these are deeply rooted --
deal with this rooted cancer with all the needed tools
else we risk darker times than this.
Beyond the rhetoric we must take action
not forgetting our failure to act is but an action.


So, 'honorable',
you have failed the many men and  women who think you are adorable
who likewise want to be called honorable--
your likes are not found in today's well stationed societies--
far lost in those long gone primitive centuries.

POEM: "The Cake Fair"

For your sake
we make cake
with so much love
to last a million lovers.


THE CAKE FAIR--It's official--July 30, 2016, at the Fiesta Royale Hotel in Accra.

POEM: "Cocky"

Troy,

you are such a boy.

Lol, I could even make you my toy

Or crush you like a fly

just so you know I never get coy.

Boy, go get a life

Or better still, die!
