It is sad a great Country Is Being Played By Like a B movie by a dimwit like Mahama. I knew it when he posed for a picture in front of the CNN logo in Atlanta.

What a load of crap. Plenty issues meshed together and tinged with polarizing partisan words.

Crap?? When somebody is talking sense, you call it partisan crap. This is why Ghana is going nowhere fast!

With that kind of knowledge he should be more introspective to help government use his wisdom, rather than make a mockery of failing and confused governance.

I admire him for his courage and savvy, but he comes off as too partisan, hence as much an inconsequential as the ruling government.

Anyway the entire establishment and system is dysfunctional...of politicians, opposition and commentators...only Gods chosen one can save Ghana!

For your information this guy is only noted for noise making. He has been bashing on government policies but unfortunately has not come up with a single alternative one to assist to move of our ailing economy forward. He is one of the doom singers and must be ignored totally.

This Sydney Casely-Hayford guy supports everything favoured by the West whether or not the western plan is in our interest or not. For a mess of pottage, he is one of those traitors who favour our governments signing the EPAs in their current form hence he is seeking to belittle the Catholic Bishops' call for circumspection in taking the decision whether or not to sign the EPAs.

Last but not the least, Sydney Casely-Hayford is desperately trying to copy the writing style of George Sydney Abugri but he is not anywhere near that man in terms of depth of knowledge, analysis and sense of humour garnished with talent.

A traitor will always remain just that: a traitor and not a fine writer who can influence opinions of level-headed people. Shame on you, turncoat!!!

You do not appear to understand that democracy is about free speech and it's the same free speech your fifi Ablakwa Kwaakye fosu and propagandists use to attack the integrity of anyone who even dares come up with alternative suggestions as to the way forward, dr Bawumia being an example.

In the face of abject corruption that stinks the highest heavens you want everyone to sing Ghana and mahama's praises despite woyome isofoton Waterville gyeeda sada subah merchant bank fortiz akonfemisation of the north and other activities of the planning looting and sharing brigades. We are not in bloody North Korea.

All the points raised here were based on facts about events that have taken place and they are not disputable. I thought the article was a masterpiece, succinctly written and at times hilarious and entertaining.
Your insulting response is symptomatic of the die hard ndc foot soldier who does not take sensibly to objective criticism or advice about an alternative way forward for Ghana since your current strategies are not working. Dr Bawumia's suggestions for example are met with the usual insults from fifi kwetey and Kwaakye fosu the recent out of college boys. Kwaku baako's renowned factual analysis are pt down as Npp inspired.
So in the end the ndc listen to their own counsel of Asiedu Nketia and kofi Adams together with fellow propagandists. That explains the mess Ghana is in today.

Casey, I got to the point where you wrote: "...I am surprised we are rejecting free trade arrangements seeing as we are so addicted to taking everything for free. We love the idea that the EU is prepared to give us free grant assistance to improve production and raise our standards, but we want it to be done without free trade...." i had to stop there. That's not accurate. One just has to look at Britain's fight with the EU. You can understand why UKIP is making inroads. But leave that to one side. For Ghana to tie itself from a colonial era, then to bring in the Chinese who are hell bent or raping the country blind and then giving the rest to the EU? Are you nuts? Don't you value what we have? Don't you value your inheritance? Why is everyone so keen on selling the family inheritance with absolutely nothing to show for it? For Gods sake, President Lula da Silva did so much more in 2 presidential terms with one fixed budget for developing the country. As for the history of this lot and their predecessors,.. the less said the better. So what we need is available within. Just get a coalition government and let them fight it out for the best schemes to survive. No one is interested in a sell out.

Moga - Please don't take that tone. Casey is Ghanaian thick and true. You should check out what his grandfather did for Ghana. He was an educator, a journalist and a lawyer who fought for Ghana. He supported pan africanism. I hope you understand that. We all have views but not everyone agrees with everything. The problem is NDC have messed up big time. We need a solution. NDC is not the solution. Their history is bad. You can argue left and right but the answer is always the same. But selling out to the EU is not a solution either. There has got to be a better way. Vote for no confidence in the current regime to bring smooth change

I cannot agree with the logic of your argument that once Sydney Casely-Hayford's father was a pan-Africanist and an honourable man, then it automatically means his son will take after him in being honourable. You will agree with me that Sekou Nkrumah can never measure up to his father's great character and achievements.

There are a lot of sons who can best be described as genetic betrayals of their fathers and to me, Sydney Casely-Hayford and Sekou Nkrumah are such sons.

Sydney could be a grandson or great grand son. But was his "father"altruistic in protecting the land of Ghana? History alone could tell. What was his profession? A merchant? Timber merchant?

I personally have problem with the free Shoes promise to every school child in the country. This is an unprecedented move by John Mahama. The country can not afford this huge cost. It will probably take a new government to rollback this stupid promise. Free school fees, free school feeding, free school uniforms and now free shoes! What is next' free school bags and free school transport ?

Addicted to free is in question.

In a social democratic governance where corruption has no limits and inequality is dominant, there is no harm in a mixed economy or in supplying some services free to some people in order to contain inequality.

Prudence must be exercised to ensure that the NPP does not become addicted to neo-colonialism in Ghana and Africa for free.

Is Casley Hayford telling us a story or lamenting? Ghana has a few great men with ideas, most of them appear as great men but they are mere opportunists. Sorry, very sorry, we do not have any good men, or should I say great men of truth? We lack them, we do not have. What we have are only pseudo great men, destroyers, under-miners,selfish, crooks, nation wreckers and saboteurs. Ghana is weeping, when????
