Would you today do like you did because laws are being broken with impunity? Or you are yet to see that! Come back to London to try and sell Insurance to Ghanaians again.You see how miserable you are today and you are still talking about Revolution. Put on your thinking cup if you have any at all.

GHANA HAS BEEN RAPED BY NDC IDIOTS. WE DO NOT NEED ANY NATIONAL ECONOMIC FORUM, WE NEED A NATIONAL COURT OF JURISDICTION TO PUT MAHAMA AND HIS CABINET ON TRIAL. GHANA'S HOPELESS ECONOMIC SITUATION, TODAY, IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. NDC HAS OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES IN OUR HISTORY INCLUDING CRUDE OIL & STEALTH TAXES. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED THE BIGGEST LOANS IN OUR HISTORY. IF THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS AND THE ECONOMY IS IN SHAMBLES, THEN,THEY MUST BE PROSECUTED. THEY MUST GIVE THE MONEYS BACK TO THE TREASURY. WE DO NOT NEED ANY ECONOMIC FORUM. SET UP A COURT IMMEDIATELY. IT HAPPENED IN THAILAND RECENTLY, PRIME MINISTER YINGLUCK SHINAWATRA WAS REMOVED BY THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT FOR ABUSING POWER. LOOK AT GHANA, EMBRAER PLANE SCANDAL, STX KOREA, SUBAH, GYEEDA, WOYOMI, ISOFOTON, WATERVILLE, AFRICA AUTOMOBILE, CP, SADA, FORTIZ/MERCHANT BANK, AKONFEM AND A HOST OF OTHER DODGY JUDGEMENT DEBT PAYMENTS. BUYING VOTES WITH CASH, LAND CRUISERS & LAPTOPS JUST TO WIN ELECTIONS. WHY NDC?????? WHY??? OUR SUPREME COURT COULD NOT HELP BUT DESCRIBED IT AS "ALLIANCE TO CREATE, LOOT AND SHARE" WHAT A SHAME? ?? AND YOU CALLING GHANAIANS TO A WASTEFUL ECONOMIC FORUM. NDC, THE MONEY IS WITH YOU, GIVE IT BACK TO GHANA. NPP, I SALUTE YOUR COURAGE FOR NOT ATTENDING. NPP REMAIN SMART AND VIGILANT!!!!!!

The lesson from the bitter Ghana history is that the military are not an alternative to ANY government. The military are equally corrupt and are likely to bypass laid down procedures for justice and human rights. It is better for the people to get rid of the government themselves through massive demos.

Let us not be fooled into ignoring the true motives and intentions of JJ's so called uprisings as the truth is evident upon reflection with wisdom and a just heart. It was nothing but a dubious plan and insidious agenda motivated by tribalism and hatred of the Akans . This is the greatest tragedy and the reason why the country can never develop, as long as the undercurrent of all political activity is the hatred and exclusion of everything Akan there can never be true unity and peace of mind . We now have generations of youth in absolute poverty who will never know what a job that can sustain a family is , brainwashed into thinking the perverse lies of this ndc are the right moral standards of the day, yes buga buga tactics designed to break the spirit of a free nation . They say we are only angry but the fact remains this was a tribal war still continuing against the Akans , you will never hear JJ mention the corrupt EWE such as woyome , segbefia and tsikata but rather any Ashanti public or private is the enemy and criminal and his follows will add drug barons . He will never see the evil corruption of his allies in this backstrabbing war against the Akans the northerners and other minorities such as the Gas. Without proof or the need to respect the law and human rights of the accused he will judge and execute innocent Akans into jail or death , even his long time traitor friend Mills was not good enough because he was Fanti and therefore not motivated enough to hate his brothers the Ashantis or npp. Forbes has put the mahamas in the list of being one of the most corrupt family in the country and Africa but JJ and the NDC are blind to this fact and obviously have succeeded in bribing our so called opposition NPP into compliance of the ongoing crimes . JJ , WHERE IS YOUR COUP NOW IN SWEEPING AWAY THIS CORRUPT GOVT ,is it because its now your ayigbe and pepeni who are now the one's stealing ?

Boakye Djan, do you continue to be proud because you stood in the way of justice when you forcibly removed Rawlings from facing a legally constituted court of Justice for his treasonable offense?
Did Rawlings take the executed Generals through any legal process before executing them; and what do you have to say about that? Are you proud about that too? Are you also proud about the killing of your brother by Rawlings' hounds for no wrong done too?
I can only say that you have only been successful in bequeathing to this country and generations unborn, anarchy, lawlessness,disrespect for fellow, the direct opposite of what you stubbornly continue to profess and should rather hang your head in shame.
Yours was the greatest mis-step ever,and if I were you, I would forever remain silent and remorseful and pray for forgiveness from the good people of Ghana, those families that have lost love ones through the extra-judicial killings and from the Almighty God.
Who, in the name of God, gave this man the title "Osahene?" Is it because you waged a phantom "war" which fruits have become dishonesty, thievery, poverty and all the evils unheard and unknown in their magnitude as being witnessed in the country today?
The last persons all right-thinking persons in Ghana would want to hear in National discourse are you and your master, Rawlings. Enough is enough.

Boakye Djan is surely a disgrace to the Brong people. After staging a bloody coup and releasing "BASTARD JJ" from cell he was rewarded bitterly by the execution of his brother Kyereme Djan when he was in exile. This man returned from exile only to join the party of his brother's murderer much to the astonishment of his own family. More so he's not ashamed and disgraced to talk nonsense. If I were Boakye Djan I would kept a low profile. Probably the innocent blood he assisted "BASTARD JJ" to shed is spiritually haunting him to be a stooge to the "BASTARD" until he dies.Certainly his brother would be weeping in his grave. Boakye Djan is undoubtedly the the fool of all time.

"We have to prove that greatness is not to be measured in stockpiles of atom bombs. I believe strongly and sincerely that with the deep-rooted wisdom and dignity, the innate respect for human lives, the intense humanity that is our heritage, the African race, united under one federal government, will emerge not as just another world bloc to flaunt its wealth and strength, but as a Great Power whose greatness is indestructible because it is built not on fear,envy and suspicion, nor won at the expense of others, but founded on hope, trust, friendship and directed to the good of all mankind.

The emergence of such a mighty stabilising force in this strife-worn world should be regarded not as the shadowy dream of a visionary, but as a practical proposition, which the peoples of Africa can, and should, translate into reality. There is a tide in the affairs of every people when the moment strikes for political action. Such was the moment in the history of the United States of America when the Founding Fathers saw beyond the petty wranglings of the separate states and created a Union. This is our chance. We must act now. Tomorrow may be too late and the opportunity will have passed, and with it the hope of free Africa's survival.

This is another falsehood being peddled by coup-maker who should be shot for treason.

Boakye Gyan like Rawlings like to speak without the context of what wa happening in the Ghanaian society as a whole and the body politique specifically. They speak as if Ghanaians were a bunch of passive ignorant zombies that THEY came and enlightened.

First of all the events of May and June 1979 all come out of the political agitation of the prior 3 year against the Achaempong led NRC/SMC1 that culminated in the 1978 referendum NO VOTE against UNIGOV. That mass action by citizens was spearheaded by a coalition of CPP and UGCC/UP/PP politicians of whom Nana Akuffo-Addo is the most prominent living survivor.

Boakye Gyan and Rawlings forgets that there are some of us who were old enough, educated enough and discerning enough to have participated in that struggle who are still alive.

Stupid misleading statement such as those being made by Boakye Gyan, Rawling and their elk, are insulting to the intellect and character of the good people of our beloved Ghana.

Let me reiterate, THERE WAS NO JUSTIFICATION FOR MAY 15, 1979, JUNE 4, 1979 or DECEMBER 31, 1981. All this case Ghana was way down the road to a democratic dispensation or were already in the democratic dispensation. All their selfish and murderous coups did was deprive the Ghanaian citizen of his inalienable right to self determination and that fact is indisputable.

Ghanaians were made to understand that the June 4th uprising was made to clean the rot in the military establishment. Right? So, why did they turn their attention to include the civilians? Hello?

If coups develop nations I think Ghana will have been at par with the likes of US, Canada, Australia and co but look at us.

The truth, judging from what Major Boakye Gyan said is that those Generals who were executed by firing squad suffered that fate because of their role in the overthrow of civilian governments.

They were not actually executed because of any corruption as some people always want us to believe. Afrifa for instance left gov't years ago but was also executed.There was also this issue of discontentment of the junior officers of the Ghana Armed Forces towards their senior officers and that led to the execution of Air Vice Marshall Yaw Boakye for instance who was not a known member of both SMC I and SMC II.

Conveniently, these two deranged morons and their lickspittles have lost sight of the macabre regime the AFRC foisted on Ghana. These two idiots seem to loose sight of the massive corruption that became concomitant with their zabernism. Accountability my ass. Through that evil take over, most of them, including Rawlings have become multi millionaires. They killed and maimed thousands in the fucking name of accountability. What do we see now? Just the sight of Rawlings and his cohorts triggers umbrage because of the realization that they took advantage of us. Mendacity coupled with pure brutality became their modus operandi in accumulating pelf. These stinking bastards killed the likes of Siaw (TATA) for daring to own properties. Today the wife of Ghana's chief megalomaniac Nana Konadu owns Nsawam Cannery. What a joke. Please stop insulting us with that crap accountability you idiot.

Much as i did not condone the rampant corruption at the time of the 1979 coup,under no circumstance should any soldier subvert the constitution of the Republic of Ghana.Provisions of the supreme document should persist at all times till the country deems it fit to either amend or rewrite it.
The soldiers should relegate to themselves the sole aim of defending the country against external aggression.They should leave the politicians to complete their terms of office as prescribed by the constitution regardless of how they run the government.After their terms in office if anyone should be found to have committed any crime against Ghana,law enforcement will deal with them.
A scrutiny of the military regimes will pin point one common fact:civilians,most of them disgruntled university professors,prop up this ignoramus soldiers who overthrow legitimate governments before they even know what demand and supply of goods and services mean.
Jerry Rawlings was propped up by the Ahwoi brothers,the Tsikatas,Dr.Botchwey,Osofo-Okomfoo Damoah,Dr.Asamoah and their likes.
It is also common knowledge that,in the final analysis,it boils down to a case of looters go,looters come.Back to square one. Ghanaians are enlightened politically.We have chosen democracy to chart our course to prosperity and political stability.It should remain so till the second advent of Jesus Christ.

The 4th June lawlessness thought criminal ghanaians how to steal , murder and kill. It suffocated the principles laid dowm by our tradition as to dwell in peace and harmony. It pushed away christians and islamic principles, replacing them by authoritorial arnachism where the rule of law was by the gun and the punishment was by death ! The president was he who had the army, and as such the power to dominate , kill and steal. A sort of the period in the roman empire where the military conquerers became emperors. There is no lesson to be obtained from such cruel manifestations ,since it showed how immature africans could be for allowing such ingrate military men to have a hold-up on our destiny ! Can someone justify the killing of Colonel FELLI for corruption and the liberty of Woyome for robbing his own country(and i dare believe) with the collaboration of his party, a membrane of this military outcome? So save your lessons to the criminals , because we have the will and the patience with time to save and protect our dear homeland from your criminal internal agressions !

IT WILL DO YOU MUCH GOOD IF YOU WOULD SHUT UP FOR EVER INITIATOR OF GHANA'S WOES. YOU CAME TO ROB US OF OUR FREEDOM FOREVER, YOU ARE POOR, RAWLINGS IS FILTHY RICH. YOUR UPRISING WAS AGAINST YOUR SUPERIORS AND GHANAIANS HAD THE WORST SIDE OF IT, LEADING TO WHERE WE ARE NOW. IF YOU HAVE A HUMAN HEART, KEEP AWAY FROM GHANA' POLITICS BECAUSE YOUR MIND IS BLOCKED, NOVICE.
