Hey, leave Mr P.V Obeng alone! To all PV critics, and those making caustic remarks. Whatever you think of PV, and whatever his politics, how many Ghanaian politicians can be seen as demonstrating these principles - Integrity, honesty, openness, selflessness, objectivity, accountability and leadership?
Well, you claim in your last sentence. "It ought to be clear to the dear reader, by now, why yours truly finds it extremely difficult to trust any Fourth Republican Ghanaian politician of either political divide." But you want Ghanaians to trust any of your Akyem crew within a mile of Ghana's levers of political power?

We Akans as a people have competent , knowledgeable expertise and capable individuals who can not only manage Ghana but even the USA or any country for that matter. As long as we tap into the resources of both the diaspora and home i am confident there is no problem we cant fix or sustainable solution we can not implement to give our people a better standard and future . Omanhene kwasea pepeni Mahama in his small-mindedness, tribalism saturated with mistrust and hate for the Akans fueled by the ayigbe treachery has appointed incompetent fools who would collapse any economy be it the USA , Germany , Japan or Canada . In fact the caliber of his favorites are so weak i doubt they could manage even a roadside chop bar for week successfully talk less an economy of 25 million strong. NDC's experiment with leadership from the north will cost them dearly as Ghanians will never again trust a northerner no matter which party fields them and they will be lucky if the party doesnt totally disintegrate into nothingness . The basic principle of democracy is to enable the active participation of the majority thus tapping into the potentials of the majority and secures the unity and progress of the people , pepeni has deviously managed to sideline the influence of the Akans and the majority of all Ghanians so is in effect and illegitimate govt that's only focused on robbing and stealing , to hell with everything else as he simply doesn't care about what he knows doesn't belong to him . He is a traitor and no indemnity clause should save him from his reckless selfishness and corruption but should be made to answer and be punished adequately either through the courts or lynching him in the streets. yes its time for a bloody uprising or war to rid us of this menace forever . His ministers are not only stupid but retarded so must also be hung from the highest tree tops for not resigning when they knew they could not perform or had no plans . Their families and children should also be bdeaten up for enjoying while the rest of the nation suffered . We all know that there is no way pepeni will see the end of his mandate without a serious conflict or peacefully talk less of even attempting a de facto third term. one thing we now all know is that the ayigbe and pepefuo have a set of values and mindset which is incompatible with the rest of us and its a mistake to remain in the same country with them so we should split the country either peacefully through negotiations or with a war whichever comes first .

Well done ahoofe for fearlessly giving the true meaning of who an honest african politician is. Due to their unfathomable deceit and the alacrity with which they create loot and share their ill gotten gains they have only succeeded in glaringly widening the cleavage between the poor majority and the few affluent politicians. May God bless yu..
