When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Why insult? What's wrong with us? Some of us are so blinded by these so-called political parties that they don't seem to understand anything that's not coming from their own party's leaders. Even though Ghana is not America, and I'm not trying to do any comparison,when Al Gore went to court to challenge the election which he lost, did anyone applaud him for that thinking he could went to the street? NO. Because that was absolutely the only option that he had. No individual is bigger than Ghana including the sitting president himself so we need to maintain a system that tells everyone that we don't have any other option rather than allowing the law to take its course. I cite with the Minister and it is about time we let Ghanaians know that "no one is above the law" so you cannot take the law into your own hands period!!!

No skin pain. First this minister is an Ndc fanatic. Second the Ndc are known to have useless ministers. Eg the gyeeda finance director that knew no finance and the minister of finance who has sacked all his good staff leading to 39bn debt against 9bn when Ndc came 4 yrs ago. Pathetic.

We have only one party in Ghana whose founder is a coup maker, not once but twice, overthrew a democratically elected Liman Government, murdered 3 high court judges including a nursing mother, and metermorhosed into a political party now filled with footsoilders who burn offices, takes over lorry parks and toilets by force, burn party property if things don't go their way and GBEVU the blind fool has the audacity to call another party uncivilised, violent and Barbaric. You are mad.

Go and take the log out of your eye and leave the spec in the eye of NPP.

From AFRC/PNDC to NDC we have been at the receiving end. They should advise Anita De-Suusuu, Vanderpuye and a host of those silly idiots who think they can continue to hunt us for ever. No things will change one day. All die be be die, kill Gas/Ewes and others were all in response to people trying to brutalize Akans.

PLEASE DONT COMPARE GHANA TO THE UNITED STATES BECAUSE AFTER THE ELECTIONS WE KNEW WHO WON WHETHER ROMNYE CONGRATULATED OBAMA OR NOT. HERE PEOPLE ARE NOT SURE WHO WON AND THAT IS THE REAON WHY THEY ARE IN COURT. PEOPLE WANT TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH SO THAT THE COUNTRY CAN MOVE ON. WE ALL HAVE TO WAIT PATIENTLY FOR THAT DAY TO COME AND LET THE SUPREME COURT SPEAKS. NOBODY IS HOLDING ANYBODY HOSTAGE. NDC IS STILL IN POWER RUNNING THE COUNTRY BUT PEOPLE LIKE YOU SEEM TO BE TALKING ALL THE TIME INSTEAD OF SERVING THE PEOPLE AND DOING THE WORK TO MOVE THE COUNTRY FORWARD. IT SEEMS TO ME THOUGH THE NDC GOVT DOES NO KNOW WHAT IT IS DOING SO FAR. DONT BLAME IT ON ANYBODY OR THE COURT CASE BECAUSE YOU GUYS ARE STILL IN POWER AND HAVE ALL THE APPARATUS TO WORK.

This is what happens when you have Boys & Girls who have not been weaned ruling a nation. Disrespect, malarky, baloney garbage, all the way. How come this hollow, dumb toddler be a minister? Learning to appreciate little things is the beginning of wisdom. In the USA the commonest word is, "APPRECIATED," which you will hear a Superior (Supervisor/Boss) dish out to Subordinated even when the Subordinate performs his normal DUTY. Giving APPRECIATION for even the smallest thing is the way to go. Toddler Kwaakye should read the Bible qoutation "In all things, let's give thanks." We have thank God for the minutest things we take for granted-waking up from sleep, breathing, talking, peeing etc free of charge. A minister my foot!
