AUTHOR: MR. FIGURE-OUT----------------
It is only in Ghana would such a dishonorably idiot be on the government pay roll. Professor Mill should be solely blamed for imposing those criminals on us. After Mills found Betty Moulds guilty of judgement debt payments the only thing he could do was to move her to the Education dept to continue her looting. Readers would recall that Betty Mounds was the one who awarded SCHOOL building contracts at a triple price of the existing contract sum of some GH 80,000.00. And this happened at a time when they claim inflation was in the single digits. Could you imargin how foolish these criminal liars were. Kuffour built similar structures with 80,000 at a time when inflation was around 14.8% and under Mills it was 240,000 at a rate of 8.8%. And these buffoons turn around to blame the fall of the cedi on some mysterious dwarfs. I don't blame those African countries that have been ripped apart by civil unrest because if you have such buffoons in power who always turn our local elections into a West Africa one
by contracting Togolese Trokosis, Burkinabe and Wangaras from La Cote D'ivoire to vote for them, the " Road To Kigare", is sometimes, a likely option to kick their ass from power.

The use of schools if permitted should be channeled through a formal process, via ministry of education or whichever agency responsible for upkeep of school maintenance etc., and be made to put down a substantial security deposit amount, which would be used to fix broken chairs etc., but this would mean someone doing an inspection after every church activity to see what is broken etc. I am assuming somebody in charge of the school opens the place for the church use and closes it when done. Of course this is in addition for charging fees for usage. Or just one fee can be assessed the church factoring wear/tear & stolen chairs/tables etc. Not sure what the statement below means though? Is this some formal arrangement with a signed agreement or what?
“The schools benefit from it (agreement), some of them get financial support and in terms of maintaining the schools, the church is involved,”

Yeah, yeah. But it is pro-Christian to disobey the laws of the land that are aimed towards creating order and sanity. It is pro-Christian to trespass on govt and other peoples property, to violate all known laws on noise and in so-doing, to cause untold suffering leading to illnesses and sometimes death to residents in communities. It is pro-Christian to extort the little money that the vulnerable poor people have.
What you people impudently and sinfully refer to as Christianity here in Ghana can under no enlightened circumstances be described as such. 99% of these charlatans who call themselves Pastors, bishops, Overseers and all that rubish are just hustlers and confidence tricksters who are out to make a quick buck at the expense of the prevailing ignorance of people like you in an under-developed society. Christianity has thus become synonymous with lawlessness and capitalist exploitation of the masses.
One just needs to take a look at the repulsive opulence, the material acquisition and the crass and vulgar wealth of some of these thieves in cassocks who exploit the name of God to freely swindle our ignorant brothers and sisters, to arrive at this conclusion.
All genuine religions of the world are founded on and project the need for human society and human beings to be modest and caring for each other. Jesus, Mohamed and all other worthy prophets throughout history, not only preached on the principles and benefits of modesty but they themselves lived in modesty as well. African 'men-of-God' obviously think otherwise. Anybody or any group or society that does not align itself with these principles, cannot describe itself as Christian.
If Oko Vanderpuiye can deal with these pranksters and charlatans who prey on the poor and cause so much nuisance and pain to society, I will give him the thumbs up. Beyond this, Oko Vanderpuiye should then sanitize our communities by invoking the Town and Country Planning laws to evict all the lawless psychopaths who are parading as Pastors, from the communities so that we can all have some true divine peace and quiet.
These fraudulent and so-called men-of-God have managed to criminally diverted the minds of people from living in the image of God - that is to be hard-working, selfless and creative like God. They rather encourage people in their congregations to seek individualistic and vulgar material aspirations so that they the Pastors can siphon some of that wealth for their personal aggrandisement. Thus our Christian society has become a lazy greedy society where Christians do no think and do not give off their best in work but ungratefully and persistently go to church to go and pray to the very same God who created them, to again do everything they need on earth, for them.

In my view, the Mayor should sort it out on case by case basis. No need to use iron hand on all churches if some of them are helping to develop the schools by associating with them.
The Mayor would need to analyse the case properly to avoid being biased against all churches when some them are contributing towards the development of the schools. He shouldn't forget that the school children also attend the same churches that he wants to close down, which also contribute significantly towards their development! No need bringing conflict between schools and churches at this time - they need each other!

Yeah, yeah. But it is pro-Christian to disobey the laws of the land that are aimed towards creating order and sanity. It is pro-Christian to trespass on govt and other peoples property, to violate all known laws on noise and ...

EVEN IF THEY KEEP QUIET THE STONES WILL CRY OUT LOUD.. PRAISE BE TO OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS. HAVE OKO DEALT WITH THE NOISY DRINKING BARS WHICH RUNS LATE INTO THE NIGHT MAKING LOUD NOISES?

Churches in public schools are not causing any harm
THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONCENTRATE YOUR ENERGIES ON.STOP THE CHOLERA, AND THE FILTH SITUATION IN ACCRA. STOP THE CORRUPTION. IF YOU CARRY THIS OUT, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR POSITION IN DAYS. MARK IT ON THE WALL...
Most far reaching policy decisions are taken in the bedroom. We need to find out what this twerp has been discussing with the wife or girlfriends behind the curtain and under the sheets.
HAHAHAHA WHAT A FOOL! WHEN WANTING BURGERS GET POST THEY DISPLAY THEIR POWERS! THIS MAN DIDNT EVEN HAVE JOB IN AMERICA WITHIN JUST 6YRS IN GOVERNMENT HE IS A MILLIONEER
You are an idiot! Why should schools built by the Government be used for church service? Why can you people think past your ugly flat noses for a change?
Come to Canada even community halls are using for church service idiot travel and acquire wisdom , churches in advance ccountries even gov't give them subsidized because they think the churches help to teach people to stop cr ...

Schools are schools not churches. Nowhere in any civilized society would you see classrooms converted into churches at night or at weekends. Headmasters must stop collecting cash from pastors. Our children need conducive envi ...

Where have you been in civilized world ? , but you idiots have forgotten that most schools are mission schools , witches like you FOOLS can't stop what God wants to do
In my view, the Mayor should sort it out on case by case basis. No need to use iron hand on all churches if some of them are helping to develop the schools by associating with them.
The Mayor would need to analyse the cas ...

You may be right but don't you think the mayor is part of the problem.Sociologists say people resort to alcohol & religion when they become so poor.The harsh economic environment is "pushing" the people to the pastors.
Why not sacking them from the end of this month.They don't preach any good thing there.They only put fears in the poor people and squeeze their money at the end of the day.In fact, churches must be taxed heavily!
NO COUNTRY HAS USED RELIGION TO DEVELOP. WORSHIP OF THE SO-CALLED GOD HAS MADE GHANAIANS TIMID AND GULLIBLE AND MANY GHANAIANS DO NOT THINK TO SOLVE THEIR POBLEMS.
GOVERNMENT SHOULD DRIVE THESE CHURCHES FROM THE CLASSROOMS ...

MAY GOD HELP YOU, HANS.
AND MAY YOUR TONGUE ROT IN YOUR MOUTH.
Only a fool say there is no God.you are one.its either you r a foreigner or u have lost ur identity
IBRAHIM, you lie he won't lose any position at all, now b4 he will even be promoted, that mushrooms churches are rather angering and disgracing God all in the name of money. Hypocrite pastors in sheep clothing.
Classroom worship is part of the reason why God is punishing Ghana with dumsor and hardships.
You will talk and talk and talk but at best all you can succeed in doing is to perform a nine-day wonder! Please tell us what happened to the exercise to rid Accra streets of street hawkers.
It's because of people like you who politicise every issue in the country.
is the accra major be sleeping in the various classroom with the wife and families during sundays. what a non sense, he thinks he is the only foolish man in this country. he should giv us a break.
NKWASIASEM ARA KWA
Kumasi Mayor also banned churches in schools, what about that.
The mayor should give you a break so you can continue to fool around. Are you not tired of the chaos around you? You want no traffic regulations, you want to defecate anywhere you choose, sleep anywhere, eat anywhere, preach ...
