PV was not a perfect man. Like all of us, he had his faults. However I can say that he contributed his part to Ghana's socio-economic development. You wish you were half what PV was to Ghana. You know nothing about P. V. Obeng. I cut my political teeth during the PNDC era and saw all political struggles on both sides of the struggle. You can distort all you want but any objective historical observer knows that P. V. Obeng played his part and whatever our nation is today is nothing compared to the pre- PNDC days, thanks in part to the work of patriots like PV. Ask President Kuffour and all those who came in contact with PV. He was a technocrat and was good at what he did.

Pray that your ilk can give a quarter of what PV gave to his country.

Listen guys, I am all for what Okoampa-Ahoofe said, and it may surprise you PV Obeng was my uncle. He and my father were half-brothers, having the same father. I will rather hold R.O Amoako-Attah another half-brother of theirs who was one time Ashanti Regional Commissioner and a minister in the Nkrumah's regime. We hail from Adansi-Akrokyere, the common father they all hailed from was the very late Bonahene to the deity Bona bosom in Akrokyere , who died in the late 1950s.

PV was an enabler and facilitator of the evil phenom called JJ Rawlings. As an Nkrumaist don't you find it queer that he played a key role to overthrow an Nkrumaist PNP gov't of Limann? All that PV was loyal to was the scent of Konadu Agyeman Rawlings who he bonked too at KNUST. I have been around and I know PV even did not claim or acknowledge his eldest daughter who he had with an unlettered woman.

May God never curse Ghana with the likes of Paul Victor Obeng ever again. Ghana is in a mess today because of the nicodemus behind the scenes nefarious activities of PV. Aboa like that. Wofa hunu bye bye ooo!

PV was a criminal who like the Ahwois who parade themselves as Fantis pretended to be Ashanti but deep in their hearts worked for the destruction of the Ashantis/Fantis . under his watch almost all industries were destroyed so today our people are without sustainable jobs . he was the mastermind of the divide and rule the Akans and engineered the anti Akan agenda that the retard jj and his ayigbe accomplices took advantage of . today we see the evolution of this agenda by the pepeni and soon we shall be forced into war

This thing who calls itself "insight to the bone" is one of the reasons Ghana is where it is! His only capability is the propagation of a senseless ashanti-superiority theory; which sounds like a joke to us. Stop shouting and secede from Ghana, Mr. Stupid! Ghana is bigger than every other tribe in it!

I call on National Security to trace, without delay, this person, writing under the guise of 'Insight to the Bone', should instigate death threts on a whole tribe. Does he know anything that National Security does not know?? What does he mean by 'We shall deal with you slowly and methodically'? NS should also investigate who Senyo is. We dont need war mongers in Ghana. Over to you NS.

You claimed to be mourning your beloved dead uncle and yet you're here preaching nonsense as usual. Gee! Are you sound upstairs at all? What sort of calibre are you really? In fact, your degree of merit or excellence is a big phony. I am really perplexed at the extremes of your hatred for anything or anyone not belonging to your ilk. That, Okoampa, is a serious debilitating illness you should urgently seek treatment for before it kills you.

The mediocrity of the people close to the ndc makes the likes of pv look wonderful but only to themselves. What exactly did he achieve. What were the skills that you were referring to. U mean his pussy eating skills?

Jojo Hammond,if you cut your political teeth during the PNDC era,then you don't know much.Even the creator of the PNDC and those who have followed him till today out of greed have nothing to offer Ghana.Most of his followers were those who ran away to foreign countries to seek political asylum,giving reasons that JJ and his cronies practiced jungle justice and they feared for their lives. Hammond,you are one of them.You were offered asylum in America after passing through many countries in Europe.The likes of you were in London and most of your likes in the present government used the same tactics passed though this same process and you, Hammond you know.

Nothing Ghanaian anti-intellectual.

Education is supposed to refine people but to some, it is nothing more than a gloss, a veneer. Scratch a little bit and you are confronted with the raw coarseness of character.

This so-called vaunted intellectual has always exhibited a sort of negativity in his writings which at times is frightening. A balanced mind is one that comes out with contributions/views/opinion during good or bad times. That is a patriot. The silence of Okoampa on good occasions is always deafening but come bad times and you would be knocked down by his outpouring couched in verbosity.

In his analysis of personalities, Okoampa is always a very bitter individual especially if the person happens to fall within the opposite camp of his like-minded. You can easily surmise his line of thought without even completing reading his articles. Just the first few lines are enough.

What is his fixation with the dead who happened not to be his political and or ideological stable mates? He was almost frothing at the mouth in his contributions on the tragic death of Kofi Awoonor-Williams.

The continuum in human activities contributes in people falling at the opposite ends of the line. Without which we are reduced to the state of vegetables.

Yesterday is gone and no matter how much we harp on it will never come back.

God bless you for having the guts to write the truth. Posterity will judge PVC as a nation wrecker who stole from the people he was meant to serve. A womaniser who corrupted young girls an abused his powers. When will Ghanaians call a spade a spade. PVC was never an asset to Ghana but rather a criminal who should have been jailed for causing financial loss to Ghana
