It is just annoying to hear of the hype the Ghanaian media
are giving to Rawlings and his contemporaries. Our economy is basically what it
is today because of the bogus journalistic practices that have been tolerated
all these years. Why should we waste our time talking about cowards who cannot even
kill a foul let alone stage a coup d'etat. Elvis Afriyie Ankrah should thank
Ghanaians for instilling true democracy as he couldn't have said what he said
had it been in the P(NDC) era. He would not have lived to see the result of his
stupidity or might have been tortured by the brutal regime that was led by
Jerry John Rawlings.
Well, let me give some advise to the minority leader in
Parliament for coming out to show his ignorance by declaring that Kwaku Baako
shouldn't be seen as a role model by the Ghanaian youth. If he could work for
"illiterates" like Rawlings then what at all is he trying to send
across? People don't only become role models after they've gone through formal
education. Bill Gates can be considered as a school drop out but can Babgin rob
shoulders with him? He should better shut up and stop deceiving the public.
Rawlings has never ever staged a coup in the history of
Ghana because he is a coward and thus I see no reason why you should link him
to a coup d'etat. Could Elvis Ankrah please come out and tell me why the
investigations involving the death of Nana Drobo was halted not forgetting that
of the BHC boss who died mysteriously? He should please check his facts before
coming out with such blasphemous declarations.
Haruna Iddrisu has been cunning since his days with NUGS and
he is nothing but a "murderer" as he misled thousands of students
whiles he was President of NUGS and thus the so- called NDC activists should
watch him as he is two faced and can be dangerous. As the saying goes,
"empty barrels make the most noise" and it is thus not surprising at
all that people like Rawlings and his comrades are always making a lot of
unnecessary noise all the time.
Mandela is respected all over the world because of his
humility and respect for humanity and Rawlings should know that, he will never
be respected unless he stops coming out violently on radio and on the
televisions around the country as that only brings out the "mad
person" in him. Does he need another operation on his head? Why did he
maltreat Dr Mustapha after he had helped him from going to his grave and how on
earth could such a person be respected.
Respect is earned but not bought so all these cowards should
shut up and rot in hell as they have caused enough harm to the economy of our
motherland. Today. a lot of people who are meant to be intellectuals are fools
just because they allowed the P(NDC) regime to manipulate them. Clinton
commands so much respect amongst Americans because he is living a low profile
lifestyle and not coming out like a bastard. If only Rawlings knew his father,
he wouldn't have behaved the way he does today but we should all be rest
assured that, he is a toothless bulldog and a very nice person when he wants to
be but he only sometimes allows the animal in him to overcome his good side.
Had Rawlings not destroyed the businesses of Ghanaian
entrepreneurs, our economy would have been one of the best so all his crazy
comrades should please shut up and blame themselves for the woes of Ghanaians
today. Only time will tell what wrong these criminals have committed to mankind
and Ghanaians for that matter. Ghana will rise again and democracy is here to
stay.
