Author:-PRINCE KWASI ADADE (OFIE)...

Ivor Greenstreet said directly to President John Mahama and Vice President Kwesi Amissah-Arthur that: “You don’t care”.

“Nobody is feeling your better Ghana”, Greenstreet shouted when he delivered his party’s solidarity message to the NDC at the congress at the Baba Yara Stadium in the Ashanti regional Captial, Kumasi – stronghold of the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).

In the full glare of the President, Vice President, former President Jerry Rawlings, and thousands of leaders and supporters of the NDC, a defiant Greenstreet said: “…Currently nobody, I mean nobody is feeling your better Ghana.”

“Continuous ‘dumsor dumsor,’ corruption from top to bottom, left right inside out, and all the challenges you are facing [are] suffocating the Ghanaian people.”

He added: “We would have thought that perhaps you may have used an occasion like this to discuss policies, programmes and solutions to all the difficulties we are facing as a nation, but no, you chose today to share your Christmas gifts with each other.”

“Ghanaians are not happy at all. This ‘bronya’ is dry. Too too dry,” he told the President, adding: “The most painful thing of all is that you don’t care.”

“NDC continue, we are watching you, Ghana is watching you, do what you want to do, we also know what we’ll come and do…make sure you’ll elect executives who will be able to steer your parties affairs when you are in opposition. Boys abr3.”

The wheelchair-bound Politicians has been called names and criticised by leaders and supporters of the NDC after his bluntness. While Majority Leader Alban Bagbin has said he believed Greenstreet was possessed by some demons, which caused him to be “so emotional”, presidential staffer Sam George wrote on his Facebook wall that: “Ivor Greenstreet apparently needs elevation to see the Better Ghana.”

However, Nkrumah said Greenstreet’s message was crafted by the CPP to capture the mood and mind of the entire country.

Thank you, Mr. Greenstreet, you spoke what is in the heart of Ghanaians. Everyone in this world knows NDC hates the truth and would like to hear lies because they are liers. If NDC is really truthful to themselves they will know he spoke the truth and if you ask Ghanaians, I am sure 80% of the people will agree with him. Let N D C come back to their senses and accept the truth and that wopill save this nation

Nigerians are too smart and too intelligent for my liking. I am a half breed Ghanaian BASTARD from Tacoradi, with phd mentality and my biological father was a refugee RAPIST from .....? Sorry I don't know my father, hence my jealousy about everything Nigerians.
I am an ALIEN in Ghana. After all I am a half breed Ghana and half breed...who knows? A product of a RAPIST refugee father who raped my Ashawo mama at Agbogloshie slum at Accra.
Moreover, my 'UGLY KAPWEPWE' stature has created a very deep inferiority complex in me, hence my jealousy of everything Nigerians.

Rev. Opuni this floating of accusations in the air does not work. Do you have skeletons in your cupboard? Go all out all those pastors who are seeing other pastors misbehave and name and shame. You are all afraid they will come at you but the citizenry will definitely be behind you. Mention their names and let everybody know them for who they are. That is why Prez Rawlings was able to mention names because he was convinced what they were doing was wrong. Simply bring on the net daily talking about one thing or the other is waste. Name and Shame like you always tell the politicians to do

You just can't name and shame people without proof of guilt. It'd simply mean taking several steps backward to the dark old days of Rawlings jungle justice from 1979 to 1982 and even beyond when a mere allegation by any crackpot could mean death / sudden disappearance and loss of personal property and assets or public ridicule and loss of properties and assets. Naming is a civic responsibility that needs to be encouraged but it's got to be the beginning of the process of seeking justice. No one is guilty until proven guilty by a court of law. In this high tech era it won't be difficult to record the church sessions when pastors extort money or sell lotto numbers to their unsuspecting victims. Ataa, if you're speaking as a good citizen then you must understand there's a process for seeking justice. Name and shame without proof of guilt is akin to jungle justice.

Fire, Why so much bile. I can't believe the level of bitterness you have inside you. No matter the physical limitations of Greenstreet, he is going to be a better man than you anytime. He has love for his country men and his strong sense of right and wrong is what resulted in his outburst. Your bitterness on the other hand is from the guilt and shame you have. Your moma must have bred you with the anger she had as a result of being raped by an unknown man resulting in the creature nicknamed fire

What about the sale of the so-called 'anointed oils' which some unscrupulous men-of= God sell at exorbitant prices to their church members?This is criminal and God will punish such church leaders severely.

You folks including all the " parading and orchestrating pastors "" must try to understand the Bible well.......Freely have you received inferred the giving COUNSELING/SPRITUAL BLESSINGS that were indeed gotten free ( who charges you guys to read the bible?).

Nothing wrong with giving lotto numbers to others except "" the way"" they were given. No where in the Bible is stated as wrong for someone to give lotto numbers to others.
The other important thing is the stupidity of those giving pastors as well as those receiving them. The lotto numbers are randomly selected by machines so the odds are so high. Howevere having said that lets not forget that NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE MAN INSIDE AND UP THERE yet we should be weary of these false pastors' tactics.

A priest, who wanted to raise money for his church, was told there was a fortune in horse racing, and so he decided to buy a horse and enter it in some races. However, at the local auction, the going price for horses was so steep that he decided to buy a donkey instead. Although he had some doubts, the priest figured that he might as well enter the animal in a race just to see how it would do. To his surprise the donkey came in second.

The next day the headlines read: PRIEST’S ASS SHOWS

The priest was so pleased that he entered the animal in another race, and this time it won.
The headline read: PRIEST’S ASS OUT IN FRONT

The bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the priest not to enter the donkey in another race.
The new headline read: BISHOP SCRATCHES PRIEST’S ASS

This was too much for the bishop, and he ordered the priest to get rid of the animal. The priest gave the donkey to a nun in a nearby convent.

The next day the headline read: NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN

The bishop fainted. He told the nun that she would have to dispose of the donkey. After several days, the nun finally sold the beast to a local farmer for $10.

The headline read: NUN PEDDLES ASS FOR TEN BUCKS

They buried the bishop the next day.

I don't see anything wrong with giving out lotto numbers to clients if one is lucky and the number drops you are in good business.P Is it not better than stealing. To top it up how about corruption. Please let it be.

Giving out of lotto numbers by pastors is not ungodly, it's quackery. It's just another practice that highlights the crooked ways of the pastors who engage in such deceptive practices. If those numbers were worth their weight, themn these money-hungry pastors would themselves be winning the lotto every week with their own numbers. There are crooks in every profession around the globe. Beware of crooked pastors dangling lotto numbers. Toilet paper is worth more than these worthless lotto numbers. Lotto is a game of chance, and no pastor can improve one's chances by prayer.
