    What have we achieved with our Afari-Gyan bloated 275 MPs ? And why should we get another set of clueless people who sit on their daily arse waiting for instruction from the Flagstaff house?

    It would have been nice idea fr ...

    This Ahoofe man, the sixth form teacher, can really make noise. Whether he goes to the top of the mountain to shout the name of Danquah, nobody knows him. Most importantly, nobody wants a useless second chamber in our parliam ...

    Why waste money on people who are useless in solving Ghana's problems. Wish the parliament is dissolved and the president rules by decree. Our democracy is being tested and cannot stand the test of time. So much water is goi ...

    Who let the inmates out of the asylum? Or did one fly over the cuckoo nest?

  • Hmm 10 years ago

    Kuffour's suggestion is as nonsense as Danquah's suggestions some 50 years ago. When rational people are suggesting that the number of parliamentarians who feed on Ghanaians should be decreased, you are talking about what? Ch ...

    Does Ghana really need the Bicameral idea proposed by Dr J.B Danquah in 21st century Ghana? In theory, Danquah's idea may sound good at the best of times, but at worst a possible misguided grandiose idea.

    Frankly, given Gh ...

    Yes, of course: that

    "THE GOLD COAST IS NOT READY FOR INDEPENDENE" -- a cable from Danquah to the Colonial Office in London in 1956.

    No wonder this Ahoofe man has a PHd! Total Pull Him down type of person. I'm sure either he himself or his relative helped pull Nkrumah down. The NPP don't seem to realize that they came to power because Ghanaians have had en ...

    We must seperate Chieftancy from politics because it will enhance tribalism.Ghana is in a process of building a Modern Nation,it's not logic to encourage ethnocracy where chiefs will play active politics.Thank you.

    Kwame, looks like you enjoy blowing Dr Danquah's horn for him at every opportunity you can seize. I sense that you will readily lap up his spit like some thirst-quenching syrup. I also suspect when you look into the mirror, y ...

  • Dadwen 10 years ago

    In order to put this chapter of Ghana's history to rest, is there anyone out there who can mystically bring Danquah back from the grave to ascend to the throne of Ghana? It appears that is about the only way we can get any pe ...
