Professor Kodwo Ewusi is laughable! People like him who premise their arguments for the change of name of the University of Ghana to that of J B Danquah on the contributions of the latter to the establishment of the university are very un-academic and certainly uninspiring. Were we to go by their skewed if not retarded logic we should change the name of the country from Ghana to Kwame Nkrumah, change the name of the Akosombo Dam to Kwame Nkrumah, change the Tema Motorway to that of Kwame Nkrumah, the state house to Kwame Nkrumah, the Kotoka Airport to Kwame Nkrumah, several schools and hospitals throughout the country must change to Kwame Nkrumah, and so on and so for. I doubt if anything else in the country would be left without the Nkrumah name for the likes of J B Danquah, after all the role of Kwame Nkrumah in founding or establishing all of these is not just contributory but fundamental. I guess Professor Kodwo Ewusi is a funny man with nothing to profess except comic relief. Tweeaaa!!!

Can Prof Kodwo Ewusi name any nation where public landmarks and or institutions do bear names of local terrorists? It is one thing for the J.B. Danquah nuts to claim he was not caught red hand conspiring to or holding on to an explosive but none of those defending Danquah’s treasonous acts have had the guts to deny that Danquah and Obetsebi-Lamptey were not co-conspirators of the UP/UGCC kind.

If Prof Owusu believes Methodist University would become a first rate university someday why not honor his hero by pulling strings at to have a name change at Methodist University? How does J.B. Danquah Methodist University sound Prof. Ewusi? It should give the Methodist, for which I am regrettably a baptized congregant, and J.B.Danquah worshipers what they both deserve; each other.

Well I understand why this professor is making this abominable statement. After all, our only international airport is named after a CIA agent and saboteur, Kotoka. What the prof is saying in not different from what has become an accepted reality - Kotoka International Airport.

Where in the World is an internal Airport named after a leader of coup that toppled the greatest statesman of that particular country? Does this make sense? Ghana in reality is turned upside down hence our downward trajectory of socio-economic and political economies. Nothing has been sick since 1966. Everything is decaying, factories and our natural resources have been taken for free. We have crooks parading as politicians stealing peoples' money.

Leave the prof alone; you Ghanaians have encouraged him to make such a slack comment. Guys, please remember this saying: "You are what you eat"

How come Rawlings, Kojo Tsikata, Tsastu Tsikata, Kofi Awoonor, Anold Quanoo and other Nkrumaists from the Volta Region who ruled Ghana during the PNDC years never called for removing Kotoka's name from Ghana's International airport? Imagine the airport was named after Afrifa, they would have changed it long ago.

Tribalism and hatred towards groups, especially Akans is so rooted in Ghana. The only time we seem ttalk about it is when an Akan is alleged to have been tribalistic. I urge you all to go read the things Awoonor wrote about Akans, yet he was once chairman of our Council of State.

Jordanian Sheikh: ‘There is no “Palestine” in the Koran. Allah gave Israel to the Jews’
Sheikh Ahmad Adwan, who introduces himself as a Muslim scholar who lives in Jordan, said on his personal Facebook page that there is no such thing as “Palestine” in the Koran. Allah has assigned the Holy Land to the Children of Israel until the Day of Judgment (Koran, Sura 5 – “The Sura of the Table”, Verse 21), and “We made the Children of Israel the inheritors (of the land)” (Koran, Sura 26 – “The Sura of the Poets”, Verse 59).

6

“I say to those who distort their Lord’s book, the Koran: From where did you bring the name Palestine, you liars, you accursed, when Allah has already named it “The Holy Land” and bequeathed it to the Children of Israel until the Day of Judgment. There is no such thing as ‘Palestine’ in the Koran. Your demand for the Land of Israel is a falsehood and it constitutes an attack on the Koran, on the Jews and their land. Therefore you won’t succeed, and Allah will fail you and humiliate you, because Allah is the one who will protect them (i.e. the Jews).”

The sheikh added: “The Palestinians are the killers of children, the elderly and women. They attack the Jews and then they use those (children, the elderly and women) as human shields and hide behind them, without mercy for their children as if they weren’t their own children, in order to tell the public opinion that the Jews intended to kill them. This is exactly what I saw with my own two eyes in the 70’s, when they attacked the Jordanian army, which sheltered and protected them. Instead of thanking it (the Jordanian army), they brought their children forward to (face) the Jordanian army, in order to make the world believe that the army kills their children. This is their habit and custom, their viciousness, their having hearts of stones towards their children, and their lying to public opinion, in order to get its support.”

It is worth mentioning, that the above mentioned sheikh visited Israel and met Jewish religious scholars. The “Israel in Arabic” site conducted an interview with him, in which he said that the reason for his openness towards the Jewish people “comes from my acknowledgment of their sovereignty on their land and my belief in the Koran, which told us and emphasized this in many places, like His (Allah’s) saying ”Oh People (i.e the Children of Israel), enter the Holy Land which Allah has assigned unto you” (Koran, Sura 5 – “The Sura of the Table”, Verse 21), and His saying “We made the Children of Israel the inheritors (of the land)” (Koran, Sura 26 – “The Sura of the Poets”, Verse 59) and many other verses.

He (Adwan) added: “(The Jews) are peaceful people who love peace, who are not hostile and are not aggressors, but if they are attacked, they defend themselves while causing as little damage to the attackers as possible. It is an honor for them that Allah has chosen them over the worlds – meaning over the people and the Jinns until the Day of Judgment. I made the reasons for Allah’s choice clear in my books and pamphlets. When Allah chose them, He didn’t do so out of politeness, and He wasn’t unjust other peoples, it is just that they (the Jews) deserved this.”

Thank you professor, but the name Ghana is good enough, and has stood the test of time. By the way, why don't you honour Danquah by naming the private Methodist University after him? After all he was a staunch Methodist himself, and might have contributed to the advancement of your values?

I sometimes wonder where people like this come from and what makes them tick. Incidentally when giving this year's Danquah Memorial lecture, he also states that Sanyo and Akasanomah were examplars our our industrial development in the 1970s!!! How very conveinent. For his information, SANYO and AKASANOMAH who made radios, television sets and fridges were Kwame Nkrumah's initiatives in the 1960s!! They only survived a few years into the 1970s, thanks to the rude interruption of our industrialization by the people that this professor supports!
