The reaction of the chief imam and his spokesman also confirms that Islam and Muslims have no loyalty to the interests of the majority or the people of Ghana so we need to do everything to separate ourselves or ban Islam. Why is it that common sense does not factor in the equation and they rejoice at the reception of these terrorists . Is it because they now have the direct links to start undermining even more the society? They add insult to injury and claim we are xenophobic but refuse to recognize the fact that we would react in the same way when the USA chooses to start exporting their other criminals like pedophiles , mafia cosa nostra or simple psychopath murderers. If we were calm in receiving their criminals then that would be cause for worry so they should all shut the fuck up.
The silence of Nana on the matter of these gitmo ex cons is a confirmation that both he and Mahama have capitulated in the face of a greater force and i suspect the super power USA. Like it or not America has waded into our conflict and you will now see a structural transition of power to the NPP . Notice all of a sudden the dumsor is no issue , corrupt ministers resigning over trivialities without a fight ,etc. NDC has denied us our cutlass revolution and opted 9 months before the election a peaceful transition of power, my advice to you folks is to forget about politics and concentrate on rebuilding our country , heal the wounds and create unity as there is nothing we can do in the face of this meddling superpower. ITS OVER. As usual most of you forumers here will attack me since shooting the messenger or PHD pull him down quick is our greatest sport but a few months from now you will see i am right. Dont waste your energies on politics rather focus on some kind of business that will benefit you as a favorable climate without corruption is about to start

You are an idiot. Do you think you are men than others? Stupid fool you sit at wherever you are and talking shit, do you think its only one region that's going to be affected? And even if one region do you think they don't have the men to defend their area? Wo y3 kwasea bring it on and you will regret it. Every region has her own youth and ex-service men who will protect their people, do you think we are fools to let ndc bring it on for us to sit aloof for foreigners to take over our country? Don't even try. Kuffuor was president for 8years and two terms and he was the first civilian president after Rawlings and why didn't you overthrow him if you had the guts? You try it and you will see the real men, never take their silence for granted to regret later. The most dangerous enemy is the one you consider as weak. Bring it on and run away from Ghana with your jakpata. Idiot

It is dirty debating with thieves. What is wrong with assesing the dignity of a democratic election towards a free and fair credibity.Even when examinations suspects fraud all the examination questions are questioned and a new one is evoked. It is only a simple commonsense that lacks these Ndc collabo Ec thieves. But this time Ghanaians will take them hook by crook on their stealing projects that is sinking our nation.

The EC is bias because of how she was appointed. In a gala match, if you allow the captain of one team to appoint the referee, she can never be independent. The EC was appointed to work for the NDC interest. So far, her demeanor has shown where she's taking advice from. Meanwhile, the President is so sure of victory in 2016 that he keeps saying let the voters decide on Nov 7, 2016 anytime she's confronted with a tough question. That's troubling!

The true wording of the panel committee report shows the EC and Charlotte Osei have not only a flawed and totally discredited and bloated voters register, the whole institution and what it represents is completely bogus and absolutely unfit for purpose.
Charlotte Smith Kesson Osei increasingly has the chance to bring the commission she heads, and the voters register within the realm of acceptability as far as free, fair, transparent and credible elections are concerned in this country, and time is running out for her.
There is no way that flawed register will be used for any elections in Ghana.
Ghanaians have made their position of this very, very clear too clear it is like the morning dew.
The ball is effectively in the court of Charlotte Osei to do the right thing in this country and Ghanaians are watching her and praying she does the right thing...Hmmmn.

I listened to the EC chairperson. She said if even we are going to create a new register, one needs to have the following to be able to register, either 1. A passport. 2. A driver's lincence. or. 3. A national ID. So she ask how many Ghanaians have the following documents? And by the constitution every Ghanaian 18 and above needs to be registered. So logic will tell you EC chose the right path else a Ghanaian not registered because he has not the following document will sue the EC and this will continue till every one needed to be on the register is registered and in this processes elections will be postponed and postponed.

For the hypocritical ears of NPP and nana akuffo Addo

1. KUFOUR ADMITS TO CORRUPTION IN HIS GOVERNMENT AND SAYS HE WONT EXPOSE IT Unlike President Mahama who has taken action on allegations of corruption ,the NPP government under Kufour refused to either expose or punish corruption. At a 2003 NPP delegates conference held in Cape Coast, President Kufour in his address made excuses for corruption in his government. Among other justifications he said corruption "was as old as Adam" and that on a daily basis he and his officials are tempted with all manner of things including the proverbial apple of the Garden of Eden. He admitted that people come with all manner of inducements but he only tells them to go and come next time. He also stated that he was not going to expose corruption in his government lest his government collapses and what he did when instances of corruption came to his notice was to call the offending Minister or appointee and caution him not to repeat the corrupt act.

2. ESSEKU GATE In 2005, then National Chairman of the NPP, Mr Haruna Esseku was caught on tape telling NPP supporters that President Kufour was the chief recipient of kickbacks from contractors at the castle. He lamented that unlike in the past when he could go to the castle and have his car boot stashed with kickback funds, President Kufour was at the time withholding those funds and this affected his ability to provide resources for the running of the NPP. For this revelation Mr Esseku was held hostage and prevented from attending the NPP delegates conference at Legon that year.

3. HOTEL WAAWAA In the first term of President Kufour and his NPP government, Gizzelle Yadzi revealed that she had been asked by Kufour to negotiate the purchase of an US $ 8 million Hotel for him. Of course later we were told that it was Chief Kufour and not President Kufour who bought the hotel. Chief Kufour had no business track record prior to his father becoming President and had also not demonstrated any capacity to raise US $ 8 million dollars to buy such a hotel.

4. LOOTING OF STATE LANDS The looting and sharing of state lands is still fresh on our minds. A recount of the sale of government bungalows and public lands to Jake Obetsebi Lamptey, President Kufour, Kwodwo Mpiani and other NPP Ministers and cronies points to evidence of corruption. Jake Obetsebi Lamptey bought his official bungalow which sat on over an Acre of prime Land at Ridge for a paltry GHC 390, 000 when the property is valued at USD 2,000,000. Documents available from the lands commission show clearly that from President Kufour, his Ministers, party functionaries and cronies all bought state lands at ridiculously low prices. The former international students hostel land was carved out and shared among more NPP Ministers, party functionaries, and cronies.

5. DIVERSION OF 6O BILLION CEDIS OF TAX PAYERS MONEY TO FUND NPP PROPAGANDA MACHINE A 2009 audit report revealed that up to 60 billion cedis of the tax payer's money taken from the TOR debt recovery levy, the HIPC etc. was used fund a so called communication strategy which was only a euphemism for a conduit used to siphon state funds into the NPP campaign. The auditors could not find details of this strategy or how it was executed except dubious payments to shady groups such as BLOW, PRIM, and FIRST RESPONDERS. Most of the people who make the loudest noise about corruption these days (Anthony Karbo, John Boadu and Samuel Abu Jinapor) are on a list submitted to National Security under the NPP for these payments to be made. This looting of the TOR coffers contributed in no small measure towards the difficulties it currently faces.

6. E.O GROUP SHARES IN JUBILEE FIELD While 25 million Ghanaians had to make do with only 13.6% stake in the Jubilee field. Two NPP top shots, George Owusu and Ambassador Edusei were given 3% shares which amounts to a colossal US$300 million. It is instructive to note that in one of the Wikileaks cables President Kufour was quoted as having told a US senator that his interests in Ghana's oil are being coordinated by Mr Kwabena Darko of Darko Farms. When investigations were carried out into the EO group's affairs by Ghanaian authorities, it emerged that their company address was the same as the address of Darko Farms! The explanations given for how EO group came to own such a significant stake in the Jubilee field do not wash. We are told that they found Kosmos and brought them in to discover oil for Ghana. It is strange that GNPC which was formed in 1983 and which has all the expertise one can think of in the oil industry could not find a partner to discover oil but it took a two-man company with no experience or track record in the oil industry to find a partner for us. Even stranger is the fact that the EO group was allowed to be part of the joint operating agreement signed among the partners in the jubilee field when they did not meet the basic requirements to be part of such a venture. First they have no track record of having being part of such a venture in the past neither did they possess the financial capacity to make good their part of the cash calls which are necessary for the operation of the jubilee field. As it turned out they were carried by Kosmos and seeing as Kosmos is no father Christmas, the conclusion that can be drawn is that the EO group shares was made a conditionality for giving Kosmos the exploration license. We recall that Franklyn Cudjoe and his so-called think tank were loud in their defence of this unconscionable action when public outcry greeted the exposure of this deal.

7. DAN BOTWE QUESTIONS SOURCE OF FUNDS FOR LAVISH NPP FLAGBEARERSHIP CONTEST In 2007 Mr. Dan Botwe, former General secretary of the NPP and Former Information Minister expressed worry about the ostentatious nature of the campaigns that were being waged by seventeen aspirants who contested for the 2007 flag bearer slot of the NPP. In an interview with Citi FM in 2007, he lamented how the NPP in opposition could not afford to purchase even flags and T shirts and yet in power it was possible for 17 people to spend so much money on a flag bearer race. Some aspirants could even afford to charter aircrafts for campaign tours and hire aircrafts to fly their banners in the air. Hackman Owusu Agyeman himself an aspirant in that contest also bitterly complained about the extravagance that was displayed in that campaign. Where did the NPP get all that money from if not through corrupt kickback collection?

8. GHANA @ 50 After spending a whopping US$ 75 million dollars on Ghana's 50th birthday celebration, it emerged that Dr Wireko Brobey, Chief executive of the Ghana @50 secretariat made cash payments to supposed contractors and service providers in polythene bags without any supporting documentation.

9. AMOATENG HEROIN SCANDAL NPP MP for Nkoranza North was arrested in the United States of America for trafficking large quantities of heroin and is currently languishing in in jail in the US. Amoateng was a key NPP financier and received his party's full support in the wake of his arrest.

10. SEKYI HUGHES LOOTS HIS BUNGALOW Former speaker of Parliament under the NPP Ebenezer Begyina Sekyi Hughes when leaving his official bungalow looted it empty. He carried along all the curtains, furniture and fixtures in the house. Some media reports had it that Mr Sekyi Hughes even took away flower pots.

So what was the need to set up the useless EC panel. Why can't our leaders speak the truth about critical issues concerning the welfare of the country. What's wrong with our leaders. Is it because of money.It's quite clear to everyone that the current voters register is bloated and fraudulent. So why not compile a new one but rather cleaning it, how. What happened the last time the EC cleaned the register. Sorry, but I think most Ghanaians are sick. WAKE UP PEOPLE. Ghana now is like a lost ship on the high seas without a competent captain and crew . It's a shame.

Our Ghana will never see progress in our life time because of the entrenched positions we have taken. We don't dissect national issues and arrive at conclusion that will propel our nation forward. What is wrong for a new register? Why are we beating the war drums based on what the Rev has said? Are we OK for politicians to take it for a ride? The ANC here is losing support based on its performance / corruption, though they liberated this country. Come the next election n will vote for a white political party,zomething unthinkable some years back

If that was the Panel's recommendation and the EC is doing just that, then why the fuss Mac-Manuh is raising now? If the NPP new Administrators and Akufo-Addo's campaign does not like the Panel's recommendations, let them go to Court immediately to have this resolved, as whether or not the EC must create a new Register.

Time is quickly running out. And sitting in front of cameras to scream objections without taking action would not resolve the issue or bring sanity and credibility to the system.

If this climate of dissatisfaction around the Voters Register among the NPP leaders continues into the Elections, some side of the Aisle would may not accept the results, no matter who wins the Elections, and we would be back in Court again to dispute them.

The attitude that one does not want to accept anything other than what one wants inevitably leads to chaos.

Well well truth has taken a flight in Ghana. Is the panel saying it did not recommend a middle way of obtaining a more or less new register? Is the panel saying that they did not recommend that voters be made to revalidate their registration?

I've lost hope in my country if something actually written in the report is being denied. I hope this report has got the wrong end of what the priest said.

We didn't propose new voters' register - EC panel
