I SEE THE GRADUAL EROSION OF FREE SPEECH IN MY BELOVED COUNTRY. FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAVE LIVED IN THE US FOR A LONG TIME WE CANNOT HELP BUT LOVE THE US MORE, WHEN WE HEAR ABOUT THINGS LIKE THIS. LAWYERS AND POLITICIAN CAN'T EVEN CRITICIZE MEMBERS OF THE SUPREME COURT BENCH WITHOUT BEING SUMMONED TO ANSWER TO THEM. THE COUNTRY HAS A PRESIDENT WITH NO VISION AND A TOTAL LACK OF UNDERSTANDING OF FISCAL POLICY. MY HEART BLEEDS FOR GHANA.

Joe, tweaa is an Akan word or twi to be precise, which, when the user uses it, means that he does not give a fuck or damn (as in American slant) about the issue or thing.

In a more lenient tone, when the person uses "tweaa" it means he or she disregard and rejects what is being said.

Well the speaker has once again hit the wrong note, how can our own language which is not an insult if properly used be banned?

Tweaa, can be used in many forms e.g, as a word of encouragement, a word to move you forward, to get you on your feet incase of downfall, Depression, etc,.etc,.

Does the Speaker really understand the full meaning of tweaaa in the akan language?

There are positive sides of tweaaa! !, so I am asking the Speaker which part of TWEAAAA has he banned?

Tweaa is our language and we cann't forgo it and practice the Obroni language.

The speaker has even demonstrated to us that Tweaaa can never be banned.

We understand Tweaa more than, "You are not my co-equal"

Mr Speaker if you are banning Tweaa then I want to ask you, what about, are you my co-equal?
