Ghana has enjoyed religious harmony because of our tolerance. This is why this individual insulting Islam and Moslems must be reported to the security agencies because he could be a paid agent working for a foreign organisation to cause religious conflict in Ghana. If so, we have a duty to sort him out and report him to the police.

When Rawlings was interviewed on why he staged a coup, he gave three reasons...one of them was that, he wants to stop the dominance of Akans especially Asantes in the political space. That man was an evil, tribalistic man. Nkrumah started tribalism against Asantes...JJ Rawlings renewed it seriously

Stop putting words on his mouth; he never said any such thing. Rawlings came after undisciplined and uncultured Ghana, thieves like your ilk who were stealing everything and lying you were your own men.

Accuse even though

WE NEED RAWLINGS TYPE TODAY TO SAVE OUR COUNTRY GHANA! Democracy is not good for Ghana. Democracy only thrives on informed electorates. Unfortunately the level of ignorance and illiteracy is so much that politicians take advantage of it to destroy the country. How can people be given money to vote in America? Or how can you use last minute roads construction to influence votes in America? But all these are realities in Ghana’s so called democracy

What the essence of this story? Write stories about how Akuffo Addo uncle and father's tried to ruins the plans to archive independence and how they tried hard and conspired with the C I A to over Nkrumah. Write stories about how 8 voters where killed by the military in 2020 elections. Write stories about bribes are being paid to government officials in exchange for jobs. Brown envelope Writers.

Should the occasion arise chiefs involved in galamsey will be arrested whipped in public and destooled. The foolish traditionalists will then realise that chiefs aren't above the president of Ghana. Chiefs in Ghana are corrupt engaging in multiple sale of lands and not accounting to their people monies they get from the sale of lands.

Not only was Nana Kwasi Agyeman flogged ( not alleged, it happened ), but was stripped half naked to his supporter/pants, given a wicked haircut with crude barbering instruments ( including allegedly, broken bottles ), forced to eat expired can foods he was said to have hoarded, made to lie on the bare ground in the open while looking directly at the scorching sun, made to roll on the bare ground, made to carry night soil ( shit/feaces/excreta) from a pan latrine etc. All these disqualified Nana Kwasi Agyeman from becoming an Asantehene in 1999.

Many Ghanaians who are under 40 years may never understand what the military, under Rawlings did to the women of this country. Sadly, and ironically the biggest supporters of the NDC party which was created out of the evil PNDC are women. Those idiots who call for military intervention during economic crisis( which happens in every country from time to time), should do a little research on how living under the military feels like. Ignorance, and lack of critical thinking will lead to our demise as a country.
