Hello Nasty Fellow,

Your right to be filthy and nasty must end where Mr. Kwesi Pratt, Jnr's well-being as a citizen of Ghana begins.

I want you to know that comments like yours inciting hatred and violence have nothing to do with the freedom of speech. It is clearly a criminal offence to write that, "Somebody should put a bullet in his mouth to silence him."

I have been interested in finding out what some of us can do to bring such irresponsible comments on the Ghanaweb to a decent minimum.

I therefore ask for a retraction. You have the entire day to do so. If by the end of the day, no such retraction has occurred, you will be able to know whether you can be smoked out and prosecuted or not!

A word to the wise is enough!

Sincerely,
Pur'gu Saarpe, Esq.,

Comment to: Crisis in NPP, what crisis?

OFFICE OF THE ODIKRO

It is now obvious that the Akufo-Addo petition was not designed to attack the Mahama Administration, but to stifle internal opposition to the Akufo-Addo's last attempt to contest.

This same Gabby wrote a rather strange article which actually said two thing. We know we are going to lose the 2012 elections. We are going to contest the results when we lose.

Whether or not we win, our aim is to keep Akufo-Addo in the public eye, until those who think 2012 was Akufo-Addo's political expiring date begin to think again! It is an opportunity for Akufo-Addo to do things that can endear himself and to get his executives in the NPP back to power, with himself as the flag-bearer.

These steps became necessary because of "Agenda '16". The "Agenda 2016" is the Alan Cash camp. They are not likely to take all these antics of side-stepping them with early elections before the elections of the Akufo-Addo infested National Executive Committee lying down.

This is the problem this article seeks to address. It only ends up making light of it, rather than addressing it. NPP may have to learn to fight in a way that allows them to come together afterwards. But when some feel an injustice has been done to them, and no one is addressing them at the leadership level, this article would rather infuriate such a person.

And this is the effect it is likely to have inside the party, from the "other camp".

Just watch and see! The NPP blues are not yet over!

It is a pity the GM lobby have resorted to hiring the services of any Tom, Dick and Adomah, to churn out such nonsense!

What has the Biodiversity Act got to do with the approval of GM field trials by the National Biosafety Committee?

Adomah writes:

"Ghana’s National Biosafety Committee (NBC) gave the approval to conduct such tests following the promulgation of the country’s Biosafety Act, 2011 (Act 831)."

The Biosafety Act calls for the establishment of a National Biosafety Authority which is yet to be inaugurated!

But even more nonsensical is the unsubstantiated and wild claim that "advocates of the GM technology believe that the adoption of GM cultivation would have significant benefits for farmers, consumers as well as the environment"!

What are the benefits of cancerous tumours, organ damage, and premature death, that consumers risk as a result of dependence on GM crops as the main source of food in the long run?

what are the benefits of pollution, increase in the use of stronger doses of pesticides, herbicides, and the emergence of super-weeds and super-bugs?

The only sure benefits that come out of the use of GMOs are the profits of these 419 companies that sell them! and perhaps the kick-backs given to cheap journalists like this writer, politicians, and the scientists who act as their local agents!

the National Biosafety Committee appears to be saddled with compromised individuals with serious conflicts of interests, otherwise, who in his right senses would champion such a silly cause?

Ghanaians must resist this in the same way we resisted Apartheid, Colonialism, and Slavery! The monopolization of our food by foreign multinational corporations just for them to make profits and control our lives is not a benefit!

I also thought that the NPP needs to know that it does not help them in their bid to get the votes of non-Akan regions of Ghana by insulting ewes as Trokosi and calling Northerners "Pepeni". But on second thoughts, it is better to leave them in their stupidity!

You see, these people are hypocrites. There is no need to force them to pretend that they respect people when in their hearts they have nothing but contempt for them! Allow them to keep showing us their true colours. That is the easiest way to make sure the elephant stays in the bush!

Akufo-Addo does not only need to “to come and explain to us (Ghanaians) why they terminated the service of solicitors we contracted in the U.K”, he needs to give reasons why he should not be given a long jail sentence for causing financial loss to the state!

He should be jailed for criminal negligence! The whole thing looks as though the NPP wanted the Société Générale to win the case against Ghana!

It is about time Ghanaians terminate the wicked practice of politicians who hover over Ghana like vultures looking for carcass and create the enabling environment to siphon off such large sums into the pockets of their foreign benefactors whilst they themselves are even satisfied with peanuts!

What marvellous stupidity is this? And he wants to be made President "at all cost"? No wonder he resorted to the slogan of armed robbers: "all die be die!"!

Ghana is not for sale! All prison be prison too!

Good day, my dear idiot,

Thank you very much for proving me right! I am sure no sensible NPP sympathiser is going to show his face. They are all bowing their heads in shame! Only genuine fools who have nothing to lose would come and beat about the bush!

The stealing of Ghana's money has nothing to do with the work The Odikro does! The Odikro is not even a member of the NDC, and has nothing to do with that party anywhere! He does not drink beer nor any other alcoholic beverage.

By the way, the stealing of millions of dollars by the NPP has nothing to do with what The Odikro does in Belgium. It is strange that you display this level of stupidity. The NPP must find better arguments to explain to Ghanaians why we must entrust the governance of this country in their hands, rather than seeing The Odikro in Afro shops!

What a hideous idiot!!!

Dr. Berko,

I couldn't agree with you more! The NPP is fast carving an image for itself as a criminal organization. It is like a kind of Mafia in which the Capo di capo is always right. And the gang members who disagree with the leadership do so at their own risk!

It is interesting that a person like Sir John is the General Secretary of the NPP. In the past, the NPP used to boast that they had "the men". It is becoming increasingly clear that the rather have "the fools"!

I pray that the NPP keeps Sir John as their General Secretary for the second term. It will be a well-deserved punishment for a party that never learns anything! that way, it will make the task of returning the silly elephant back into the bush a "cold chop"!

Forward Ever! Backwards Never!

Comment: YOU ARE RATHER THE LIAR!

Your ignorance is amazing! It is very doubtful that you are so stupid. Since you are accusing him to be a liar, it is more plausible that you know what you are saying is false. The UN special rapporteur on human rights, Carla Del Ponte specifically accused the rebels of using the nerve gas you are referring to.

By the way, it is also against international law to go and attack another country simply because you have "high confidence" that the government there is killing its own people! The US is currently supporting Bahrain that has killed more of its own people than this gas attack by the Syrian rebels!

By the way, why break international laws by not going through the UN Security Council, with the lame excuse that the use of chemical weapons is against international law? Since when was the US so sensitive to that? Who used the phosphorous gases in Fallujah?

The contradictions are so many that the lie has to be a very big one! Here is a good one: "Americans are there bcos Asaad has used Chemical weapon twice and that's violation of UN Law".

"Why would the U.S. risk killing innocent Syrian civilians to punish the Syrian regime for killing Syrian civilians?" Amy Goodman asks in this week's column. "What if a military strike was not an option?"

Akufo-Addo has so many unanswered questions hanging on his head. His much talked about history of drug abuse is one he was never able to deal with. Attempts by others to help him out even made matters worse. the most interesting of them was when ex-President Kufour came out with the bombshell: "Do not judge Akufo-Addo by his past"!

Dr. Arthur Kennedy also tried in vain to exonerate him with the claim that, as a qualified medical officer, he had examined Nana Akufo-Addo with his bare eyes and "did not find a drop of cocaine in his blood"!

Even though Akufo-Addo knows how to write petitions, he has failed to petition Oxford University to come out with the official reasons why he was dismissed from Oxford in 1962, thereby fuelling speculations that he was dismissed for smoking wee on university campus.

The question many people are asking is when he stopped smoking marijuana, since he would be seen twenty years later in a "wake n bake" scandal revealed by the Wikileaks that he smoked marijuana, fist thing in the morning!

If these rumours are true, can we trust such a President to soberly preside over the delicate and complex affairs of the state? Can Ghanaians really entrust their destiny in his hands? How do you feel being a passenger of a car woith a drunken driver?

Akufo-Addo must give us a break! He just made a mistake in believing that he has been ordained to rule over us! At the last time I checked, Ghana was still a democracy. and only Ghanaians ordain who must rule over them! The way he handled his "all die be die" campaign makes it clear he is not fit to get anywhere near the Presidency!

He must take a permanent retirement and allow the NPP to learn the correct lessons for their defeat! He needs to stop the disgusting narrative that anyone cheated him. He was unable to win because of the perceived arrogance, mediocrity, ethnocentric comments and behaviour of most of his inner-circle members, and his general comportment as a warlord rather than a flag-bearer of a political party!

I am no fan of Alan Cash, but any other person would be better than Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo! He must give us a break! That is an order!

Comment to: NPP NEEDS NEW BLOOD


OFFICE OF THE ODIKRO

He who pays the piper calls the tune. When the cameraman of Rawlings was severely beaten in a hotel lobby in Kumasi, Akufo-Addo was there in the lobby; he merely looked on as if it was something very normal.

His body guards would beat the body guards of Prof. Mills, not once, but twice. The first was during the 2008 Fetu Afahye at Cape Coast. The second was at the Odwira Festival, at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi. There is no doubt that these beatings were being done to please their boss and paymaster.

The only occasion Akufo-Addo was forced to come out to condemn his body guards' wanton beatings of political opponents was when they attacked and beat up some individuals suspected to be supporters of Alan Cash at the NPP Headquarters in Accra.

Sometime last year, Mr. Asamoah Boateng would run for dear life, after he tried to approach the Akufo-Addo VICTORY 2012 Office in Accra. He was chased away by the hangers-on. His crime? The only explanation given was in the shouts they made: "Agenda 2016"!

"Agenda 2016" is a code name for the Alan Kyeremanteng camp. The Akufo-Addo camp believed the "agenda 2016" did not wish them well. And that they wanted Akufo-Addo to lose the 2012 elections so that Alan Cash could take over the Presidential candidacy of the NPP for the 2016 elections.

It was even believed that the "Agenda 2016" was working tirelessly to scupper Akufo-Addo's chances in 2012, to make the way for Alan Cash in 2016. Hence the hostility. Yet, what we saw was exactly the opposite. Ashanti Region, Alan Cash's strongest base had the highest votes for Akufo-Addo, as Mr. Kyeremanteng, J. A. Kufuor and all campaigned tirelessly for Akufo-Addo.

Aren't Ghanaians simply tired of this type of politics? Akufo-Addo must not confuse running for office with the work of a warlord! He is getting nowhere with this "all die be die" attitude! you cannot surround yourself with thugs without being a thug yourself!
