Will these NDC stealers now apologise to Ghanaians for their foolishness ?

Yea though we walk through the valley of pepeni death we shall fear no ayigbe evil for the Lord stands by the children of Akan and Israel always . We shall forever remain blessed and despite the trials and tribulations served to us by this aboaba kwasea pepeni and murderous intent of the ayigbe we shall triumph. No matter what they do victory shall be ours for God has most certainly made them blind so they lack any wisdom and see no solutions . These pagan ungodly souls have lied and stolen from us on a daily basis but their days are surely numbered . Somebody quickly remind them i am still waiting in vain to be arrested or see the effects of their juju which they promised because we told our people to prepare for revolution and war . Today its clear the pepeni have armed themselves so we also begin to arm ourselves against these criminals, if you can not buy a licensed gun then make sure you sharpen your cutlasses well and keep them well polished and oiled . pepeni has appointed his incompetent criminal friends , family and tribesmen into various positions of state , little do they know that its not about building empty meaningless careers but they should know its a duty to serve the interests of the people and seek the well-being prosperity of all citizens regardless of stature , religious affiliation , ethnic background , age or gender . They plan and scheme to steal our oil and any wealth we are able to create. they work to systematically destroy even the basic family unit by try to thrush down our throats perverse gay homosexual values as being the ideal .They do not see the beauty of the unity in diversity of the various tribes of Akan rather they encourage and facilitate conflict amongst ourselves but it will not work as our people are now more sophisticated than that as no one is blind to their divide and rule tactics except the few idiots who think they build a political career in the oligarchy which has now crossed over into all parties . Be strong and vigilant oh children of Akan as our day draws nigh . long live the republic of Akan

If the newly created districts are struggling to survive, they should go to the multimillion dollar billionaire Afari Gyan for help. He reject all common sense when creating these extra districts which he himself knew the nation's resources cannot support.He did so because he had been promised millions of dollars to do so. I am surprised Ghanaians have left Afari Gyan and Atuguba out of the mess Ghana is in now. The millions of dollars they took away from Mahama during the elections and the petition alone can make the economies of countries like Ghana worse.

We dont create things with only a name. Everything should be in place before you can call it a district.
Its a shame our paliament let pass thru them to end up useless. Why didnt the MPs question the govt about the districts creation. We are saying the govt shouldnt create districts, we are saying why call a town a district when there is nothing to show it can be a district. A district is many up of all government offices a services, without them you dont call a place a district.
Its not a political thing, it is a mistake all the MPs made.

You were warned, NDC but due to political greed, you refused to listen. You created, you won, now you want to go on tour before you know their problems. Nonsense. This is taking the tax payer for a ride. Better if you add the cost of fuel, per diem etc and give to one or two districts to pay their debts. No need to travel the country all over . Thieves you are, all those of you planning to undertake this tour. Complete nonsense.

Was there any need for creating those constituencies and their districts? They were created for the purpose of winning the election. Now, find your own means to support it.

That is what happens when you do things in haste. There was no reason to create these districts in the first place except to give jobs for the boys.

I am a typical Akan man from Berekum. Am deeply concern about the abusive language some people post on Ghanaweb. I wonder if Ghanaweb has an editor and it's time they stop publishing some idiotic tribalism and bigotry.
In this instance,I refer to an undesirable illiterate coward individual hides bihand disguise name" insight to the bone" who thinks freedom is all about Spewing detestation and bigotry. I will personally hold Ghanaweb accountable for unprofessional editing. I can't stand it anytime i visit Ghanaweb and it's all full of insults, tribalism and primitivism.
Ghanaian Constitution guarantees equality to every Ghanaian irrespective of his/her tribal background. But unfortunately very often its our semi literate Asante people who Orchestrate this shameful remarks.

You started well Charlie, but you also proved in the end that your canned perception of the Asante is just as noxious as the bigotry you ascribe to them. I spend just as much time on this website like anybody else, and my observation leads me to conclude that most Ghanaians on this forum are equally guilty of unwarranted disrespect for one another. Your submission, so elegantly started, decomposed into bias, I am sorry to say.

There is no doubt about the fact that the nation is heavily polarized along ethnic lines, and that is a contributing factor to the retrogressive political dispensation being practiced and witnessed today. How do you expect Asantes to treat others, when a lot of non-Akan ethnic groups have been socialized to believe that Akans- Asantes in particular, are the reason for their woes in society ? A baseless assertion, to say the least. How many times has an Asante been president of Ghana ? Retrogression of our society will be guaranteed as long as some of us hold unto the warped victim mentality and play the blame game.

Right now our country is neck deep in economic failure, and no amount of propaganda and tribalism will help us out. We need to tap the qualities of all Ghanaians home and abroad to get the job done. If a sick Ghana affects us all, so should its wealth be shared among all.

Charlie, You just wasted people's time to read your long stupid comment claiming you dislike tribalism and "primitivism" , a useless English grammar that does not even exist and yet you jumped to attack Ashantis without any evidence. Who told you "Insight to the bone" is Ashanti? Like yourself, do you know how many times this dude has lambasted Ashantis? And yet you both claim you want Akan unity. No wonder we have Trokosis successfully ruling Ghana behind the scenes with their divide and conquer tactics on Ghana. You said you are from Berekum and therefore you may be Akan but you are upset because of Ewes who are ruling your NDC and are under attack. How many times have you called on the Ewes to stop the ridicule and insult on Akuffo Addo, who is also an Akan? Kwasia, if you are upset because you have no akpeteshie for the day, go borrow some money and rush to the blue kiosk. Forget about Akan unity, we Ashantis shall survive all the envy and hatred being rained on us everyday from all corners of Ghana. We know we have a foolish King who is not even helping but we shall survive. We Ashantis don't need Ghana, Ghana needs us.

Even before the Districts were created the existing Districts were struggling with funds allocation.
We brought all arguments why the new Districts shouldn`t be created,but Afari-Gyan will just not listen.
Now the taxpayer have to cater for 75 extra Members of Parliament and for what?

Very soon, they'll start fighting each other for a place to sit in that "AUGUST" house.

Ghana's "leaders" are very funny primates. Even lower primates like chimps can plan ahead.

In Ghana, anybody that speaks near-perfect Twi is often referred to as an Ashanti. For instance, a Bono person utters perfect sentences in Twi and he/she is immediately thought of as an Ashanti. People's conception of the Ashanti tribe is very skewed and misguided.
