Susana Adam is a Ghanaian politician who served as the member of parliament for the West Mamprusi constituency from 1997 to 2001.

She contested for the West Mamprusi seat on the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) during the 1996 parliamentary election and won polling 23,021 votes which represented 63% of the entire votes cast. During the 2000 parliamentary election, she lost the seat to Issifu Asumah of the People's National Convention (PNC). She polled 12,735 votes (37.3%) as against Asumah's 18,907 votes (55.4%). In 2004, even though she had gained considerable endorsement from the NDC party faithful prior to the general election, Alidu Iddrisu Zakari represented the party to contest for the then newly created Walewale East seat. Zakari consequently defeated Issifu Asumah for the seat in the 2004 parliamentary election.

  • Is this what politic and running for public office have been reduced to? Why have Ghanaians reduce our democracy to "GUTTER " why are we not emulating the example of our former presidents and seasoned former leaders as the Late Buwumia's Justice D.F Anna's, Dr P.V. Obengs,Mr.Chris Hesse's and others not mentioned here because of space ant time. How can we stoop so low ,by viewing political opponents as enemies. We are one people with a unique destiny and are striving to make our great and strong through the blessings of God as our national anthem rightly says. How can we afford to equate an Honorable esteemed son of Ghana to an ape-Nana Addo Danquah, the Flag bearer of the great party's that is energizing our fragile democracy . Ghanaians with me inclusive we need to desist from these acts that divide us rather than unifying us a nation. These acts of indiscipline is the reason why women although they are so experienced and committed to lasting development transformation and change will not run for public office and to be effective partners in the decision- making process of our dear nation . Vilification and bad mouthing tactics such as this has become a bottleneck in our democratic dispensation in Ghana. With these acts that have plagued no man in his right mind will allow the wife to mount a political platform in Ghana to be insulted, vilified and embarrassed by his fellow man who cannot take care of his family and is struggling just to be elected as Member of Parliament, because he sees Parliament as a gold mine and position of honor and prestige rather than service to the people ,and having the impudence to embarrass he and his wife in the name of politics. This post on social media is below the belt and really exposes the ignorance of Ghanaians to the world at large . The boot lickers and the light soup and yes drinkers of our leaders should desist from this gutter politics and focus on issues rather than personalities. Political bigotry,rancour and bitterness must cease, because we are partners in the same ship,if the ship sinks we are all going to perish . Our politics should be devoid of discrimination and above all male chauvinism so that women can participate in politics to contribute to the nations developmental process. Let us emulate the example of Three "JOHNS" _ His Excellency Jerry John Rawlings, His Excellency John Agyekum Kuffour and our current president John Dramani Mahama, although they all have different leadership styles and believe in different political ideologies they do not bad mouth each other ,but are rather united because they know that it is not about them but about our dear nation Ghana. "GHANA FIRST" . Although they may not see eye to eye on many issues on governance,but because of the love of the nation ,they have buried their differences to work together to move Ghana forward. Fellow Ghanaians he that have ears let him listen to what the spirit of God is saying to the nation of Ghana.
