How can he mention names when he knows himself that he's just a barking dog. Noise is cheap. This guy Rawlings can get a lot of respect if only he can muster a bit of courage and go to court just like the former attorney general did to expose these "greedy bastards". We want real fighters of corruption not just noise makers. That doesn't cut a damn thing.

What he said don't mean a damn thing If he can't at least name names ok? If he's not sure of what to do or where to go he can consult his own role model, former attorney general who was able to get reverse judgement on the Woyome case through the same corrupt courts. Until then he remains a Noise Maker. We've had enough of those confusing noises.

The guy likes to come around every now and then, create some cheap sensation without any hard proof of his allegations then disappear until the next time. The irony is, everybody eats his stuff without challenging him. He's no more than a sensationalist at least for now until people catch up with his bullshit.

Rawlings and Bature are all cowards for failing to letting Ghanaians know who the real greedy bastards are. In my new world I find in the United States, nobody hide the truth from anybody. I am really getting sick of the low standard of approach of tackling issues when those who have facts and know better are trying to be ass holes, by hiding the truth from everybody. Politicians with their politricks is what is killing my dear Ghana.

The GREEDY BASTARDS have not been neutralized. It is their MODUS that has changed.

They still control the Revenue Agencies, the Ports and Govt Imports as they did under Rawings and Agya Atta.
Lately, they have added OIL to the areas of control.

Their Proteges occupy the top and decision making Positions in these areas.

If you doubt me, find out why those who have been TESTED and PROVEN and have a TRACK RECORD in standing up to them, have been SIDELINED and kept out of Govt for very FLIMSY reasons.

Even if they still they have some fear that they will be caught but for the NPP "stealers" if they steal and they are caught their mantra is that 'if you say it the more we will do it'. so you see, at least NDC stealers will perform befroe they chop some not so with the NPP looting brigade.

Mahama has been spraying Ghana's money around. The man does not know the difference between what constitutes his party's assets and the national purse.

JJR has had his share, seriously, greedy bastards or otherwise, he himself is corrupt. He is very well replenished, satiated, neutralized and completely nullified.

They can both praise each other now, yesterday it was M'hama praising JJR in respect of the so called UDS convocation. Mahama is a serious misqualification, his job performance so far is beneath even Arthur Mills. In fact Ghanaians are suffering, there has been a serious belt tightening with nothing to show for it, except nonsensical politicking about Africa "emerging from parts unknown." What is so good about having abundant but mismanaged resource? For even Kuffuor to say openly that the country is corrupt tells me we have gone off the cliff!

A man had a parrot that could talk. Unfortunately, it swore a lot. In an effort to get the parrot to be quiet, he put him in a cupboard. The parrot continued swearing and after a while the man decided to put the bird in the freezer. After that, the parrot started swearing even more. After a few minutes, he suddenly became quiet. The man opened up the freezer and the parrot said, "I'm sorry, sir, it will never happen again." As the man took the bird out of the freezer he wondered what the difference was between the cupboard and the freezer. Just then, the parrot said, "So, uh, what'd the chicken do?"

Mahama sidelined some people because they disrespected him during Mills' admn. Those people called the shots and as a Vice P, he was nothing. Still, Mahama has got a number of greedy bastards around him. What is PV Obeng, Teye still doing in Ghana politics? What about the young ones with sharp teeth doing too? Just to insult to be given position? And Amaliba or whatever he calls himself is now a Board member of STC? Holy shit.

Allaji Bature did not understand where Rawlings is coming from and totally confuse or delibrate twist Rawlings statement to save Mahama ass on his role of being crookish monster and the leader of the bad ones.Even though Rawlings was being copward to say it in the face of Mahama that he is a crookish monster and the leader of the bad ones,he said Mahama has surrounded himself with crookish monsters and bad ones.The reason Rawlings why Rawlings call Mahama a crookish Monster is that Mahama sa VP and president to the nation debt from GHC8.9billion to Ghc43.9billion without anything to prove and also Teachers,Doctors,Nurses,Accountance,resgistrars,DC,MMC all has not be paid and contruction contruct suspended and contructors not paid and this crookish monster is busy paying dubious judgement debts create,loot and share.It seems Allaji Bature need to go to school to learn who to understand Rawlings.

In one breath, Bature believes, rather conveniently, that Rawlings is happy that Pres Mahama has (supposedly) clipped the wings of the greedy bastards. Yet, in the same breath, Bature believes that Rawlings is not happy with Mahama's being (supposedly) surrounded by crookish monsters!

Between greedy bastards and crookish monsters, what's the difference? In kind? And in value? Or, to be more specific, what's the difference in graft and corruption?

In any case, if there's any difference between those two evils, which is scarier and more obnoxious than the other?

If all we've been seeing, hearing and reading so far since Mahama's assumption of power are any measure, then, wouldn't it seem better for us with greedy bastards than greedy monsters? Just like the Better Ghana Agenda, if its outcome so far is any good measure of it, then, are we not better off with a Normal Ghana Agenda, the way things were before?

Bature is deceving himself but he thinks he is smart. What JJ actually said is below;

Former President Jerry Rawlings has chastised President John Mahama’s inability to keep “the bad ones” and “crookish monsters” away from the Presidency.

“Both the good and the bad are around him. He’s unable to kick the bad ones away and I guess it’s because he doesn’t know about some of them and their nature”, Rawlings told a special congregation of the University of Development Studies, Saturday, at which ceremony an honorary doctorate degree was conferred on him by the school, for his personal contribution to its founding.

Directly advising President Mahama, who was also at the ceremony, to learn to keep the “crookish monsters” and “greedy bad ones” away from him, Rawlings counseled that African leaders do not survive if they go about everything with a gentle posture as President Mahama appears to be doing.

“Ohhhh African politics, you don’t do it like that”, Rawlings warned Mr. Mahama, albeit jovially, with intermittent spices of laughter.

He said despite the President’s austere nature, the “crookish monsters” around him are living profligate lifestyles which risk plunging the presidency into the doldrums.

“The president sometimes joins his car personally to go and see his Dentist; I know it; he doesn’t know I know; today I’m saying it. He drives himself. He won’t do it again since I’ve made it known [but] some of the crooks – he doesn’t know - around him, if they are going to the toilet or the bathroom, they will use a dispatch rider”, Rawlings fumed.

He said: “There are very disciplined people who are trying hard around him, but sometimes their efforts are negated by sometimes the crookish monsters some of us know about”.

“I have to be very frank with my President today with you as my witnesses and I think it’s important that we do something about this issue of greed and opportunistic tendencies as people, as brothers,” Rawlings suggested and added that: “I love this country intensely you know. And I love the people of this country intensely”.

If it were so, why are we still suffering and buga buga everywhere? Why is Asiedu Nketia, Hanna Bissiu, and Maham himself. Rawlings is enjoying his share and now sees everything in the green light. What has his outburst got to do with situation in the country? He says nothing about the hardship, rather hatred targetted at some people in the Govt. Perhaps, those who opposed his wife.
