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: "Talking Grave"


“Talking Graves”

Remember me when I am gone, do not grieve
And over my treasures do not fight.
Remember me when I leave
and not my plight.



Be yourselves when you read my tribute
Else I frown to refute
Remember me when my days are no more

keep peace, not war.


Remember me and smile
Forget not, our stay here is but for a while.
Indeed, parting is hell but life must go on
So be happy because I’m happy: for the crowns I’ve won.
