Back to his senses. I never know he has been a teacher before. Next time think before you talk. People you don't mess up with are teachers, Doctors and nurses. Your political career as an MP is in jeopardy. Do you know what teachers tell their students to tell their parents? Ask the ghost of Kutu.

Apology accepted. But be careful next time you go to the hospital to see a doctor or a nurse. You will be a patient under their authority. Doctors and Nurses have the grace of profession to even insert a catheter in a Parliamentarian's (male or female) urinary meatus. They have a hold on your very life as a patient.

How could idiot like his type be voted to become an MP? These ill-educated people bought their way into parliament; how could he have made such a silly comment. Who treats the forking idiot when he is sick? Who educated? Even though he is not well educated? This tells the kind of parliamentarians Ghana has and the type of result we are getting

Kofi Jumah, I now know the kind of person you are.

My first question is: Who is a politician? Is a politician a servant or master? It is only in Ghana that politicians are masters.

Not aware that he can noply his 'trade'in Ghana,if he is not sanctioned by some regulatory body or council! And I am pretty certain he knows what can happen to errant teachers,architects,engineers,drs,whenthey fall short of set standards. So, he should disabuse his mind of this life-time accreditation he is 'crowing' about.

Ever since this dude became an m.p, i have never head him coming out with better proposal for development of nation and even to his own constituency.All that i hear about him is nonsensical issues and has even nothing impotant to benefit the nation rather insults against even woman in his own party.I think this man is suffering from dementia and needs serious medical attention. How many does he come out with apology in his politcal career. He is just a disgraced to his party and ghanas politics as a whole. I cant inmagine how embarased his family would be if they hear all sorts of hash public reation to his silly statement.He needs a spokes person by his side always else...... explosion
