Massa; there is no way Jon Dubai Mahama will dare prosecute this lady because the truth is that Jon Mahama Dubai Mahama has not got the 'balls' to prosecute anybody because the man is himself dripping in the faeces of corruption how can the man prsecute any body besides this is a single woman with no husband that Jon Mahama shares a bed with whilst in the hotel and by the way have you ever seen Jon Mahama prosecute any high official in his government but have the balls to go and pile debts on Ghanaians.

When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Author:-PRINCE KWASI ADADE (OFIE P33)...
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.”

Who told you she invited Nana Akuffo Addo? I don't know about your Ewe culture concerning funerals but we don't invite people to funerals but make general appeal to the public to come and help the family to bid final farewell to the departed.

Even when head of the family visit the President and informs him or her about the death of somebody, they don't invite him or her to come to the funeral, they leave the decision for attending to him. Funeral is not a party where invitation cards are sent out.

There was nothing that prevented Ndc officials from attending that service. If they did not go to the funeral, it was not because they were not invited. We don't send invitation cards to individuals to attend a funeral. If you hear the announcement on radio, TV or on a flyer, that is your invitation to attend if you want to. Nobody send individual invitation cards to individuals to attend funerals.

You are correct when you point out invitation cards are not sent out to attend Funerals in Ghana. However, it should also be pointed out that in the U.K. (and other countries abroad), it is common practice for Akans (including Ashanti's), to print & send out invitation cards to attend Funerals.

Yaw, I cannot argue with you about what happens in UK since I don't live there but what you are saying also goes on in USA but those cards I have received in my mail or emails does not actually invite you to attend funerals but rather informs you about the death and when the funeral for such a person is going to be held. You will not see the words 'YOU ARE INVITED TO ATTEND'.

It is against the norms and morality of Akans to invite people to attend funerals.

DEAR H.E.FORMER PRESIDENT OF GHANA DR.DR.JERRY JOHN RAWLINGS, HON. FORMER FIRST LADY OF GHANA & LEADER OF NDP NANA AGYEMAN-RAWLINGS AND THE BEREAVED FAMILIES,

THIS IS TO REGRETTABLY SEND MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCES TO THE BEREAVED FAMILIES OF THE GREAT LOST AND LOSS OF THE MOTHER OF THE FORMER FIRST LADY OF GHANA.
THAT IT IS TRUE THAT GREAT PERSONS WITH GREAT, GOOD AND KIND HEARTS GIVE BIRTH TO GREAT PERSONALITIES, THERETO.
THAT THE GOOD LORD WHO SEES THE INNER CORE HEARTS OF PEOPLE AND TREATS PEOPLE EQUALLY BY ENDOWNING GREAT POTENTIALS IN PEOPLE AND DID SAME FOR THE MOTHER OF THE FORMER FIRST LADY OF GHANA NANA KONADU AGYEMAN-RAWLINGS BY GIVEN BIRTH TO SUCH GREAT WOMAN THE FORMER FIRST LADY OF GHANA AND OTHER GREAT CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN TO BE SEEN AND COUNTED BLESSED.
THAT THE FORMER FIRST LADY OF GHANA LATE MOTHER WHO WE MOURNED TODAY , HER FATHER AND HER ENTIRE FAMILY NEVER DISCRIMINATED AGAINST THEN A YOUNG AIR-FORCE OFFICER WHO ALSO AN EWE MAN WHO UNKNOWN TO ALL THAT HE WILL BECOME PRESIDENT OF GHANA IN THE PERSONALITY OF H.E.FORMER PRESIDENT OF GHANA FLT.LT.JERRY JOHN RAWLINGS BUT GAVE HER INTO MATRIMONY WITH THEN YOUNG AIR FORCE OFFICER, THERETO.
THAT SINGULAR SPECTACULAR ACT REALLY AND ACTUALLY DISTINGUISHED HER FAMILY FROM THOSE WHO UPTIL TODAY RESORTED TO PLAYING "THE TRIBAL CARD GAME EVEN IN MARRIAGE".
THAT IT IS A FACTUAL TRUTH THAT "A GREAT OAK TREE HAS FALLEN AND THE VACCUM CREATED IS SO DEEP".
HOWEVER, IT IS OUR FERVENT BELIEVED AND CONSOLATION THAT THE GOOD GOD WILL FILL THE VACCUM CREATED BY PROVIDING AN INSPIRATION OF HOPE TO TAKE UP THE MANTLE SHE LEFT BEHIND.
THAT MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH THE BEREAVED FAMILIES.
MAY HER SOUL REST IN THE PERFECT ALMS OF GOD AND MAY SHE REST IN PERFECT PEACE!

I am really surprise the scanty information on Mrs Agyeman. I thought Mrs Agyeman-Rawlings is the type that has nothing to hide being the first to raise the educational qualification of Nana Akuffo Addo. Why has she not inform Ghanaians that her mum is a Krobo?
The media has deliberately omitted this important information from us, which is a big disservice to Ghanaians. It has gargantuan implications if we all understand that Nana Agyeman-Rawlings is after all a Krobo but not Ashanti.
