The point is that Akufo Evil Dwarf Addo cannot compare himself to Mandela. You want to know why? Mandela neither sniffed cocaine not smoked wee in his lifetime. But those drugs are Akufo Addo's pastime. Already those drugs are showing their effects. Again you want to know in what way? Nelson Mandela would NEVER call for AL DIE BE DIE. It is only a cocaine sniffer who would do that

A 75 Year Old man went to the hospital as his 20 year old wife was giving birth. Upon arriving, the nurse says, ”Congratulations, your wife has had quints.”

“Quints,” the Old man says with an inquisitive voice, “What the hell are quints?”

The nurse responds, “Five babies, all boys.”

The old man sticks out his chest and says, "I'm not surprised, I have a penis on me like a chimney."

The nurse replies, "You might want to consider getting it cleaned, The babies are all black"

Peter you are such a sensible person who thinks much better of our country than those NDC monkeys who want to see our nation being destroyed by NDC corrupt President Dramani Mahama who are now selling Ghana Banks after robbed the nation's properties and destroyed our economical stability.

We need a Leader who is old and can help build our nation to see progress so as Ghanaian people can be relieved
from hardships, economical chaos,lies,
deceit, dishonesty, corruption, thievery, rape, murder, armed robbery
which Dramani Mahama and his corrupt and selfish so-called politicians has
plunged the nation into.

Peter you have made a very important contribution, well done.

NDC thrash news papers are always bent on finding ways to destroy Nana Akufo-Addo. It's pathetic! Why can't the editor of this paper get focued and find something good to publish rather than focusing on finding ways to pull Nana Akufo-Addo down. It's so strange to me; it makes no sense!

The truth about what is really going on in Mali and with AFRICOM and NATO countries, especially France is a little bit like a geopolitical “Victoria’s Secret”—what you think you see is definitely not what you will get.

We are being told repeatedly in recent months that something supposedly calling itself Al Qaeda—the organization officially charged by the US Government as responsible for pulverizing three towers of the World Trade Center and blowing a gaping hole in the side of the Pentagon on September 11, 2001—has regrouped.

According to the popular media account and statements of various NATO member country government officials, the original group of the late Osama bin Laden, holed up we are supposed to believe somewhere in the caves of Tora Bora in Afghanistan, has apparently adopted a modern business model and is handing out Al Qaeda official franchises in a style something like a ‘McDonalds of Terrorism,’ from Al Qaeda in Iraq to Libyan Islamic Fighting Group in Libya and now Al-Qaeda-in-the Islamic-Maghreb.

I’ve even heard reports that a new Al Qaeda “official” franchise has just been given, bizarre as it sounds, to something called DRCCAQ or Democratic Republic of Congo Christian (sic) Al Qaeda. [7] Now that’s a stretch which reminds one of an equally bizarre sect called Jews for Jesus created back in the hippie days of the Vietnam War era. Can it be that the architects of all these murky groups have so little imagination?

If we are to believe the official story, the group being blamed in Mali for most all the trouble is Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM for short). The murky AQIM itself is actually a product of several behind-the-scenes workings. Originally it was based in Algeria across the border from Mali and called itself the Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat (GSPC according to its French name).

In 2006 Al Qaeda’s head guru in absence of Osama bin Laden, Egyptian jihadist Ayman al-Zawahiri, publicly announced the granting to the Algerian GSPC the Al Qaeda franchise. The name was changed to Al-Qaeda-in-the Islamic-Mahgreb and Algerian counter-terror operations pushed them in the past two years over the desert border into northern Mali. AQIM reportedly is little more than a well-armed criminal band that gets its money from running South American cocaine from Africa into Europe, or from arms dealing and human trafficking. [8]

A year later, in 2007, the enterprising al-Zawahiri added another building block to his Al Qaeda chain of thugs when he officially announced the merger between the Libyan LIFG and al-Qaeda in the Islamic Mahgreb (AQIM).

The LIFG or Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, was formed by a Libyan-born jihadist named Abdelhakim Belhaj. Belhaj was trained by the CIA as part of the US-financed Mujahideen in Afghanistan during the 1980s alongside another CIA trainee then named Osama bin Laden. In essence, as the journalist Pepe Escobar notes, “for all practical purposes, since then, LIFG/AQIM have been one and the same – and Belhaj was/is its emir.” [9]

That becomes even more interesting when we find that Belhaj’s men – who, as Escobar writes, were at the forefront of a militia of Berbers from the mountains southwest of Tripoli, the so-called Tripoli Brigade—were trained in secret for two months by US Special Forces. [10]

LIFG played a key role in the US and French-backed toppling of Libya’s Qaddafi, turning Libya today into what one observer describes as the “world’s largest open air arms bazaar.” Those arms are reportedly flooding from Benghazi to Mali and other various hotspot targets of destabilization, including, according to what was suggested at the recent US Senate Foreign Relations testimony of outgoing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, by the boatload from Libya to Turkey where they were being channeled into the various foreign terrorist insurgents sent into Syria to fuel the destruction of Syria. [11]

Now what does this unusual conglomerate globalized terror organization, LIFG-GPSC-AQIM intend in Mali and beyond, and how does that suit AFRICOM and French aims?

It is the health that matters in this comparison and not the age. Nana's health at his age today is older than Nelson's at 95 when he died. The fact is Nelson (if that is true) smoked cigarette BUT who knows what Nana is still smoking or sniffing. He needs to submit his health record as a first step to any kind of leadership in Ghana. He also needs to explain why he flew through Germany to London for treatment and not straight from Kotoka International in Accra. Also, Ghanaians need to understand why he refused admission in the hospital but stayed at home and had specialists at his side 24 by 7. Mandela is also handsome and looks more of a leader than Nana despite his 27 in jail. Two trials as flag-bearer for NPP (Non Policy Party), maybe just enough plus it is Brong Ahafo's turn to submit a flag-bearer that is taller this time. Ghana can no longer hire one person to carry a stool to be placed behind a podium any time Nana travels. H + H = No Leadership for Nana. (Health + Height). Nana, please accept the fact that the name Akufo-Addo can never be registered in Ghana's record as elected President. So stay in London and take care of your ailing health since there is no hospital in Ghana to care for your special/unknown disease. However, Abrefa Busia honoured your father with a Ceremonial Presidency and Accra Brewery glorified that by naming their short brand of beer (Club Beer) after him. That is enough of honour for your family. Don't dream of a President. Don't try it anymore and I thank you!
