Hi Tawiah, you are talking nonsense. Fighting corruption is a continual process hence no need to blame if there is at least a committed effort to act and dismiss the bad nut. There is nothing wrong with what the moderator is doing unless you have a claim that he is perosnally corrupt. Otherwise you are talking tosh. Is it not better to be active than leaving things to inaction? Please always think twice before you talk.
I was a Presbyterian before joining the Pentecostals. Now I know these pastors singularly own these churches and treat us to nonsensical preaches whiles they fly in private jets and Rolls Royces. The normal and standard church is that owned by the community not some fucking asshole calling himself a Pastor.

Rev. Martey and others in his profession has been calling for the return of Public Schools to the Churches (Missions), as it used to be in the Colonial times.
Now, with this huge Corruption in his outfit, right under his nose, how does he justify his hounding of the Government to hand over Public Schools to the Churches?
We may have to remind the Rev. to refer to a verse in the Holy Book that says we need to take care of the mote in our eyes before talking about that in others' eyes.
This incident, if proven, would establish how pervasive Corruption has eaten into the fabric of our Society.
If such hitherto honorable Reverend Ministers, the most direct representatives of Jesus, and God, could be that Corrupt and ostensibly steal from the Institution they are supposed to manage, where else in Ghana can we find solace to garner our spirits and motivation to curb this vicious criminal behavior that is killing the Nation?
If I were a Judge that would have to rule on this case, I would give the culprits the maximum sentences, if proven guilty.
The Apartments or Hostels would have to be confiscated for the University and discounts given to the Students who had to pay exorbitant Fees to support the clandestine financing of the Hostels.

There is a core disaese infecting Ghanaians more than the Ebola virus which must be diagnosed head on to find clinical treatment for its complete annihilation.This disease is not respector of who you are, but can infect you, no matter who you are .It is ubiquitously known in our daily conversations as corruption.There is one eminent reason why curroption is prevalent in our Ghanaian society which is simple to discover and that is affluence.Every Tom, Dick and Harry in Ghana wants to leave in affluence no matter where the money comes from.It has become a perception by every middle income worker to possess a grandious hause, drive a 4+4 jeep.[having the most beautiful lady in terms of the men]forgetting about their souls.The Holy Bible states,what profits a man if he gains the whole world and losses his soul.Preachers should begin to preach the old old story of the Bible to instil fear that brings sanctity into our present generation and the generations to come, to save the catastrophy about to come.We as people of this Nation must therefore stop the blame game where we apportion corruption only to the Governments of the day and forgets that we must also be very careful not to be contaminated by this killer disease.

Are they not ‘biting more than they can chew’? To put it in the mildest! Look at their primary, JHS and SHS’s all over the country, are they performing at the right standards – socially, economically, educationally, spiritually, etc.: producing the best as it were about 30 years ago? No! The churches are now business ventures; competing with the banks and other financial institutions for moneys from a ‘developing nation’ at every level without shame and ignoring its fundamental responsibility; preaching the good news of Christ our Lord and Saviour to change hearts and minds, charity work in looking after the poor and the aged, etc. etc. These Churches have completely misunderstood Matthew 13: 31-32 - The Parable of The Mustard Seed, which denotes abnormal development of the outward appearance of the church (which is against the law of God’s creation that every plant must be after its kind - Gen. 1:11-12). The church, according to its heavenly and spiritual nature, should be like the mustard, sojourning on the earth. But with its nature changed, the church became (has become) deeply rooted and settled in the earth as a tree, flourishing with its enterprises as the branches to lodge many evil persons and things (The New Testament, Recovery Version, 1985, pg. 90). This is very sad, to say the least!

How can a university dozent be paid and survive on a basic salary of GHC 600 (about EUR 150), when an unemployed person in Europe will receive an equivalent of GHC 6000 for just sleeping and watching TV?
Don't FORGET....that GHc 6000 was GENERATED by SERIOUS WORKERS in form of TAX for the Un-employed to receive! Sometimes, too many of you talk by heart,thinking you're smart.WE CANNOT COMPARE THE 2 SYSTEMS YET!!

They preach virtue and practice vice. Shame
Why can this go on unnoticed by the Governing Board of the University? Don't they do an annual external audit even though this might be a not-for-profit institution?
HOW CAN THIS BE, DEAR PRESBY? AND WHO IS TO BLAME? ANY WAY, GHANA IS SO TOUGH THAT EVEN THE CLERGY CAN'T HOLD THE CENTER. WHAT IS ALL THIS?
it is not only presby university that this is happening. go to LEGON, UST UCC and other public universities and see real nepotism,greed and other vices.Kudos to Rev Mantey.
Presby corruption? I am not surprised. Moderator, please investigate the financial activities of the Ghanaian presbyterian churches in United Kingdom. Bombshell???

This is exactly what the former pro of the church Dr.Akyeampong was advising the church to address and his appointment was terminated.It is even worse at the head office of the church.Martey is a liability and must go,
So whose photograph is pasted besides the report? Is it one of the suspended officials or an official of the University making the allegation? Stupid Ghanaweb!!!
IF THE COMMITTEE IN CHARGE OF THIS CASE IS ABLE TO PROVE THAT THE SUSPECTS ARE ACTUALLY GUILTY OF THIS HEINEOUS OFFENCE, THEN THEY SHOULD BE PUBLICLY EXPOSED AND BE MADE TO REFUND ALL OF THE EMBEZZLED MONEY TO THE LAST PESEWA ...
