Mahama we have pointed long ago is a curse upon this nation of ours , all we will see as his legacy is the incompetence , deliberate sabotage of anything worthy or valuable including virtues , lack of morals or conscience and amateurism. Crime emanating and encouraged out of the highest office of the land . Callousness in character , criminal in thought ,Godless in action, and no true fear or respect for the children of God and anything HE created.We must work diligently to remove this menace from the so we hope al righteous people see this and encourage all worthy political parties , trade unions , market women , drivers ,soldiers and police, lawyers and judiciary, intellectuals , teachers and lecturers , Akans and other righteous law abiding peace loving tribes, pastors and priests, the ordinary man and even the tobacco or wee smokers to do everything possible to stop this pestilence laden , bad luck govt. If necessary we should prepare for even war now so we give our future generations a better chance for a happy future .

AYARIGA, NOT ONLY YOU HAVE FAILED GHANA.
APART FROM DR. KWAME NKRUMAH OF BLESSED MEMORY, ALL OTHER GHANAIAN LEADERS HAVE FAILED GHANA BIG TIME!
DUBAI, WHERE YOUR BOSS MAHAMA LOVES TO VISIT WITH WIFE LORDINA, WAS TRANSFORMED LITERALLY BY ONLY ONE MAN, SHEIKH MOHAMMED AL-MAKTOUM, FROM A DESERT WASTELAND TO A MODERN INFRASTRUCTURAL MASTERPIECE.
SHEIKH MAKTOUM ACHIEVED THIS FEAT IN LESS THAN 25 YEARS WITH THE EXPORT REVENUES OF ONLY TWO OF UAE'S EXPORT PRUDUCTS - OIL AND NATURAL GAS.
TODAY, DUBAI IS THE ENVY OF EVEN WESTERN LEADERS BECAUSE DUBAI CAN SQUARELY RUB SHOULDERS WITH NEW YORK, MIAMI, BEIJING AND OTHER CIVILIZED CITIES.
THERE'S NOTHING LIKE "DUMSOR" IN DUBAI, A DESERT COUNTRY WHERE IT RAINS ONCE IN A BLUE MOON, SO THE WATER TABLE IS SO LOW THAT ONE CAN BUILD A THREE-STOREYED BASEMENT BUILDING IN DUBAI WITHOUT HITTING THE WATER TABLE.
GHANA IS BLESSED IN SO MANY WAYS, BUT GHANA'S "BLIND" LAZY LEADERS TAKE THIS FOR GRANTED BIG TIME!
INFACT, OUR LEADERS HAVE LET US DOWN BIG TIME!!!
ANYBODY WHO WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS TRANSFORMATIVE SHEIKH MOHAMMED AL-MAKTOUM SHOULD VISIT DUBAI ON YOUTUBE.
THAT'S WHERE YOU'LL SEE WHAT LEADERSHIP IS ALL ABOUT.
GHANA LEADERS ARE ONLY GOOD AT "ROBBING PETER TO PAY PAUL" BY APPLYING FOR LOANS UNABATED, COLLUDING WITH OTHERS TO RAISE DOMESTIC TAXES, ENERGY TARIFFS, FUEL PRICES IN THE FACE OF FALLING GLOBAL PRICES, EXPLOITATIVE IMPORT DUTIES AND OTHERS.

You don't seem to get it so you keep defending the indefensible. The mayor can not be faulted for the unavailability of the funds but why did he not come out to tell his side of the story? Why did he have to wait till the disaster happened before telling the people what really stalled the project? Who knows what the untold story is. So what can the mayor do? Tell it as it is as soon as the funds were not released if he truly believes he's accountable to the people.

Which of those ministers of God supported the mayor or even understood that they need to advice their congregation to help with cleanliness so that our gutters should not be blocked?
In reality if all these superintendent ministers and their heads could educate their members and never count on offerings alone Ghana could have done well in the area of desilting, decongestion etc.
My daily question is where were all these ministers when the situation look like that till the havoc took place at Circle? Were they living outside Ghana? It is easy to find an escape goat and then every foolish person jump on him to destroy him.
They were all there but never a day any of them with the bible came out to speak in defence of the mayor's strategical approaches to implement the byelaws of AMA which in practice could prevent all the disaster we are now crying wolf of.
All the people living in Accra failed to understand the mayor when he was trying to help alleviate the danger in the future, but today instead saying sorry to the mayor for opposing all his good effots, they rather called for his resignation with the stupid minster saying NO TEARS FOR THE MAYOR.
Is it not the same oppostion Kufour and the NPP gave to Nii Adgiri Blankson when he was doing the same thing Vanderpuye is doing today? Why are Ghanaians enemies of development and progress unknowingly. No wonder many of them are possesed with demons hence they love DIRT.

IF NDC IS ADMITTING FAILURE LEFT AND RIGHT WHY RETAIN THEM IN 2016?
Incumbent Chairman of the governing party Dr Kwabena Adjei has told starr news in an interview that he is being blamed by members of the National Democratic Congress, for the failures of the current Government.
“Everything the Government has done and has not done well from the energy crisis to lack of funds for GETfund scholarship to school feeding programme to poor road network to lack of potable water in certain places, all are government responsibilities, I’m not the person to be blamed, but when I go out they blame me, as if I was the minister of water resources works and housing, minister of roads, minister of energy, minister of this, they put it on me,” the two-time Chairman who is running for a third consecutive term told Ibrahim Alhassan.
NOW THE BABY WITH SHARP TEETH, AYARIGA HAS ALSO ADMITTED FAILURE.
"According to the former Sports Minister, several government institutions tasked to ensure that Ghana is managed effectively have all failed.
“There is an institution failure across board...from Metropolitan and District Assemblies to Town & Country Planning Department to Fire Service Department to EPA to Ministerial levels. We’ve all slept on the job,”
SO NOW GHANA, VOTE MAHAMA AND HIS USELESS NDC PARTY OUT IN 2016.

The former mayor of a French seaside town has been sentenced to jail for four years for ignoring flood risks before a storm that killed 29 people.
Rene Marratier hid the risks to La Faute-sur-Mer to avoid putting off property developers, the court said.
The storm Xynthia hit western Europe in early 2010. The storm knocked down seawalls in La Faute-sur-Mer, leading to severe flooding.
Marratier called the verdict "unjust" and said he would appeal.
On Friday, the court said that Marratier knew La Faute-sur-Mer, a west coast resort in the Pays de la Loire region, was at risk of flooding.
However, he "deliberately hid" the risk so that he could benefit from the "cash-cow" of property development, the court added.
Marratier's deputy was jailed for two years.
Xynthia swept through Spain, Portugal and France in February 2010, killing at least 50 people in western Europe.

You should rather be preaching to your church members who do not heed to simple instructions from the mayor and his staff to stay away from certain places to enable the mayor do his work efficiently.

The Man of God has head the nail on the head. You don't wait till there is a problem then you say you were not given money. You hold a Town conference and lay your plans before the people, and make your case for money and the challenges you are facing. You start something even small. No one saw this huge disaster coming. The flooding was supposed to claim the lives of a dozen or so Ghanaians and after the usual promises it would have been back to business as usual. But one life lost is one too many and we have been caught pants down. Things can never be the same. The filling station craze by the 'nouveaux riche' in Ghana with its accompanying environmental assault must be checked. See what that MP is doing in Achimota. Very disgraceful for a law maker! Pull that filling station down for God's sake. Sanity must prevail, laws must work. You cannot do this in a Francophone country like Togo or Cote D'Ivoire. The British have spoilt Ghana and Nigeria.

Please go and ask the Chiefs of Accra and they will tell you that Dr. Vanderpuije is the best Mayor they have ever hat. Why do you not blame all those numerous people coming from the bush to Accra and putting up structure here and there without permit. Why does the Minister not blame Ghanaians for being LAWLESS in their behaviour. Ghanaians do not know what Hygiene is. We throw away everything into our drainage and when it gets ckoked we blame the Mayor for our stupidity. No one needs Rev. Charles Aarons Ekubans tears. The Accra Mayor is doing more meaningfull things for the peope of Accra and Ghana so most of us will not allow him to resign even if he wishes.By the way what meaningfull duties has the Minister discharged?

Oh, the mayor should wake up every morning and complain about the failure of the Minister of Finance to release funds for drainage? On the other hand, should the mayor wait until the rainy reason is over, more havoc unleashed on the people, before demolishing the structures in the dry season? These are the stupid messages they preach in their churches to equally stupid and gullible listeners.
