As the days go by more and more people wake up to the reality of the ndc anti Akan hate agenda and their deep rooted corrupt dark souls of evil .This was first initiated by the Ewes and through Mahama and his brothers being championed today by the northerners. We see in Iraq/Syria the announce of the Islamic caliphate state and their map which now includes Ghana and the whole of West Africa .Most people are ignorant of the fact that unlike in Christianity and other religions whereby the leaders or priests are men of peace in Islam their imams or priests advocate for war and destruction of the non believers and when war starts every single one of them assumes the title emir and becomes the captain of a murderous horde as we saw in Libya and with the boko haram. The mosque is not only a place of worship but an army fortress or barracks and that is why they must in the design in every area which is not predominately Muslim its required to have a tall reconnaissance tower. we see in Accra and other places these mosques spring up all over the place at militarily very strategic positions but we are vigilant and when our bloody revolution starts we will raze all these structures to the ground and drive out this menace from our midst . There are some brainwashed idiotic fools who still believe mahama has good intentions but don't know he is a Muslim disguised as a christian which Islam allows and his only agenda is to weaken with corruption and destroy with negligence the Akan economy so the caliphate can be achieved that is why no project of strategic importance can see the light of day under his watch.As for the Ewes his partners in crime all i can say is have you ever wondered why when you go to Togo there the Ewes are very nice people and true African brothers but the moment you cross the Aflao border into Ghana the ayigbe wickedness , hate and evil starts? The ewes in Togo know these ayigbe are so bad and useless that they are not interested in reuniting with them but would rather throw them all into the sea. We should find a way to trick them into taking them back as we Akans will definitely be better off without this foolish idiotic people. Mahama and his brothers have stolen so much that even the bank of Ghana admits they dont know where our foreign reserves have disappeared to , i can tell you where , Turkey , Iran, Dubai and other Muslim countries where its safe for them. Congrats to Kumasi for hitting the nail on the head and exposing the discrimination and abuse of the civil/human rights with the WHAT HAVE WE DONE TO YOU demonstration , today we see idiots and saboteurs trying turn it into a question of mere economics , even one idiot woman came out with a humiliating brainless idea to go naked just to deflect from the main core issue of discrimination against the Akans. My people we have only one problem and if that's solved the rest will be easy , the problem is discrimination and the Anti Akan agenda of part of this mafia ndc . its never about npp , ndc ,left or right wing ideology politics but simply pepeni/ayigbe tribalism against Akan nationalist evolution. They are only attracted to ideas that only destroy our economy like this EPA paramount foolishness with the Europeans or giving away our gold fields to foreigners who never invest here in the name of prudent business , end result our people are exploited and made poorer. we shall never surrender or be fooled again. While we were thinking of a better Ghana for ALL citizens they were thinking of only themselves and destroying the future for our children . We need to have our revolution and secede to form our own state as they will never change.

What I dont understand is, what have these NGO's been doing all along to sensitize and mobilize public sentiments against this sell-out of our people? A few statements here and there in isolated media outlets which dont go far enough is not and has not been good enough.

Coming out so strongly against this evil plot to recolonize West Africa after the evil deed has been done, helps no one.

And by the way, which of the NGOs were the ones who are against this move? Where do they get their funding from? I am really suspicious if their intentions are crocodile tears or genuine tears of sorrow.

There are some specific fields that we lack the needed expertise. To solve this problem the government of Ghana has over the decades made scholarships available for Ghanaians to study abroad in these fields. In some instances several people have been sent and not even one of them has returned. If you know very well that you are not prepared to live and work in this country and would therefore not return do not take these scholarships.

The Takoradi Poly Students who were sacked for applying with fake certificates must be prosecuted in a court of competent jurisdiction. Just sacking them is not enough.

Nowadays businesses and government organisations have stopped demanding Secondary School Certificate or Basic Education Certificate.

Each of these certificates are important. For example for many tertiary graduates the only certificate that can tell whether one can speak good English or whether one has adequate knowledge of Mathematics is the Secondary School Certificate.

Similarly the only certificate that can tell whether a tertiary graduate has basic knowledge of Ghanaian history, culture, agriculture and the basic geography of West Africa is the Basic Education Certificate.

This policy will be presented by and to the NDC mps in parliament. So how should we expect them to think about this country when it is to do with their party's agenda? Forget about that. It is good as ratified even before it gets to the doorstep of the house.

NPP declared its support for the EPA long ago. In fact, one of its MPs criticized NDC for delaying the signing. NPP and NDC - the value is the same, two sides of the same coin, the devil and his identical twin brother. There is absolutely no difference between NDC and NPP. They both loot and sell Ghana off for pennies to imperialist interests!

Real EPA should Restructure African economies

"The EU supplies a large part of the equipment that contributes to the economic growth and development in the region. European annual exports are worth approximately €30 billion. West African exports towards the EU account for €42 billion. The agreement should increase this figure even more in favour of our African partners"

The result is no restructuring of the African economies and the deficits of Africa will be perpetuated.

This is the biggest financial risk Africa has signed with the EU.

That is the real value of EPA

The alternative EPA should increase measurable EU direct investment in Africa: that will contribute to creating significant employment and development in Africa.

EPA smacks geopolitical practice of using capitalism, business globalization, and cultural imperialism to influence third world countries in lieu of indirect political control. African countries must have control of their destiny, able to consume what we produce. Late Dan Lartey termed it DOMESTICATION. If EPA were a good thing to go by, why are still restriction on movement of people from ACP countries to EU. This agreement contradicts President Mahama preaching of producing and consuming local goods.

NDC destroyed Ghana's industrial base. Nothing that Mahama says is important.
Words that do not match deeds are not important!

In signing the EPA, The current foreign praise-seeking West African leaders have sold their countries for 20-30 years for personal gains. Posterity will judge them and give the punishment they, rightly, deserve by their action. Kwame Nkrumah might be turning over in his grave as they pointed the tip of their pens to sign the agreement.

Present West african leaders do not know why past leaders like Kwame Nkrumah and others fought to liberate their nations from the clutches of colonialism.They are neo-colonialists who believe that only the subordination of their nation's economies to that of the colonialists will ensure development.They lack ideas and vision.With such leaders in place the majority poor in west african countries are doomed.EPA will prove to be the brickwall to stop west african nations economic development.

The kleptocrats of Africa doing what they do best: selling their own people to the new European slave masters. Nothing is beyond these thieving "leaders". The will sell even their own mothers! 'They've sold off all the strategic assets of their countries, as we've seen in Ghana. If the imperialists want to dump GMOs in Africa, they say "No problem", EPA - "Yessa Massa"...In return for being such faithful butt-boys, they are allowed to deposit the monies they've stolen from their people in European banks. Europe in crisis finds a way out by dumping its goods in Africa! They got Gaddafi's billions in their banks, and his oil for pennies. Europe conquers Africa this time without firing a single shot but through the willing collaboration of tbe theiving African stooges!
