President OBASANJO OF NIGERIA DONATED CARS FOR USE BY THE GHANA POLICE AND FREE OIL-FUEL TO PRESIDENT KJ A KUFFOUR WHEN GHANA WAS ON ITS KNEES. AFRICA MUST UNITE AND HELP EACH OTHER. THE WHITE MAN AND WOMAN UNITED AND THEY ARE PROSPEROUS. UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL. BLACKS MUST LOVE EACH OTHER. HOW CAN WE BETRAY OUR COUNTRY BY TAKING BRIBES FROM THE WHITE MAN. WILL THE WHITE MAN TAKE A BLACK MAN MONEY TO BETRAY THEIR COUNTRIES? THE ANSWER IS OBVOIUS-NO, NO, NEVER. WHITES SEE US BLACKS AS UNPATRIOTIC. WE ARE ALSO LAZY AND WICKED TO EACH OTHER. LOOK AT THE SLAVE TRADE. WE SOLD OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS TO THE WHITE MAN.

A bunch of confused people. How can a month-long celebration with series of activities across the country be less expensive than a day’s activity held on rotation?

The Independent Day is one day all Ghanaians should celebrate with joy and happiness. Spending on the celebration must counted more important some seminars and retreats.

PRESIDENT OBASABNJO OF NIGERIA DONATED FREE CARS FOR THE USE OF THE GHANA POLICE AND FREE FUEL TO PRESIDENT J A KUFFOUR-AFRICA MUST UNITE AND LOVE EACH OTHER. WE SOLD OUR OWN NBROTHERS AND SISTERS AS SLAVES TO THE WHITE MAN. WE COLLECTED THE CIA BRIBES-J B DANQUAH WAS A CIA SPY. HE WAS SELFISH MAN. HE WAS A LOSER-HE NEVER WON AN ELECTION- AND SO HE WAS BITTER. HE DIED A LOSER AND A BITTER MAN WITH JEALOUSY. ARREST THE TRAITOR FROM AKYEM ABUAKWA. AKUFFO ADDO CAME TO DESTROY GHANA. AKUFFO ADDO CAME TO BORROW £13 BILLION AND LOOOTED AND LOOTED ALL THE MONEY. GHANA BECAME A FAILED STATE BECAUSE GHANA COULD NOT PAY ITS DEBTS-GHANA DEFAULTED ON ITS INTERNATIONAL LOANS PAYMENTS. WHAT A DISGRACE-THAT WAS WHY WE WENT TO THE IMF/WORLD BANK FOR BAIL OUT.
ALL DIE BE DIE PUT HIS FAMILY ABOVE GHANA INTEREST. HE WOULD NOT REMOVE INCOMPETENT KEN OFORI ATTA.
Yes, YES, YES-you are NOW telling the truth. ASHANTIS ARE CURSING THEMSELVES FOR VOTING FOR THE ARROGANT, UNGRATEFUL, SHORT, UGLY, LILIPUT AKYEM TANI AKUFFO ADDO, because HE DID NOTHING FOR US THE ASHANTIS. LOOK AT THE IMPORTANT POSITIONS MAHAMA HAS GIVEN TO THE VOLTA REGION-EWES. BUT AKUFFO ADDO GAVE US THE ASHANTIS NOTHING. ASHANTIS DID NOT RECEIVE ANY DEVELOPMENT. PREMPEH INT AIRPORT PHASE 2 WAS STARTED AND COMPLETED BY MAHAMA NDC. AKUFFO ADDO DID NOTHING OTHER THAN TRICKING ASHANTIS TO COME AND OPEN WHAT MAHAMA STARTED. VERY SAD-THE AIRPORT RUNWAY IS NOT YET REACHED INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS. I AM ANGRY AT MY ASHANTIS. NO ONE SHOULD VOTE FOR BAWUMIA AND NAPO-NAPO IS AN AKYEM. You are lying because NAPO is NOT an Ashanti according to the Akan tradition. MAPO mother come from Akyem and so He is an AKYEM. You are a fool. NPP Replace Bawumia and NAPO with Dr Adutwum and Ken Agyapong. The break the 8 years plan of the greedy Akyem Mafia DID NOT WORK. Bawumia is a LOSER. the North of Ghana reject Bawumia. The greatest African of the Century was betrayed by the Akyem Abuakwa Mafia looking for a free lunch and unemployment benefits-J B Danquah. Dr Kwame Nkrumah Statute stands in Tanzania, Kenya and Ethiopia but his own people he fought selflessly for-betrayed him and destroyed his statutes. Very sad-WE ARE IN ECONOMIC SLAVE TRADE NOW. Oh Mother Africa-your children are LOST IN THE WILDERNESS OF UNPATRIOTISM. I ask your foolish AND UNPATRIOTIC Children-WILL A WHITE MAN OR WOMAN COLLECT A BLACK MAN OR WOMAN MONEY TO GO AND OVERTHROW THEIR GOVERNMENT? The ANSWER IS OBVIOUS-NO, NO, NO. Because white people are patriotic and WILL NEVER betray their Nation through Coup Detat.

But this is exactly what J B Danquah and his Akyem Tiny population of Ghana did. J B Danquah was a CIA Agent-passing messages to the Whiteman and woman to receive MONEY. To betray his own country. The white man or woman-will do the opposite. J B Danquah went to the US Embassy in Accra to ask why his FREE LUNCH and UNEMPLOYMENT Benefits from the CIA had stopped? The white man and woman are USERS. This is because when J B Danquah was in prison for plotting to have Dr Kwame Nkrumah assassinated and bombed several times-the White man and woman saw there-he was of NO USE to them-because he was NO MORE ABLE to provide them the information to help overthrow Dr Kwame Nkrumah and so they stopped paying J B Danquah his free LUNCH and Unemployment Benefits.
AFRICA UNITE-BOB MARLEY SAID IT SEVERAL TIMES.
If Africa DO NOT UNITE-We WILL FOREVER BE CLEANING THE WHITE MAN AND WOMAN TOILETS-Our children are economic slaves in the white man and woman country. The white man only want us to produce the raw materials for their added value products from our raw materials to bring them back and sell them to us at ASTRONOMICAL prices. OH AFRICA-OH AFRICA-when are we going to realise that the white man and woman are using us for their own selfish ends.
BLACK PEOPLE ARE DOOMED FOR EVER.
Now the white man and woman are telling us to become GAY-before they give us loans who have to pay back 10 times. I tell you the consequences to being GAY- You get HIV/AIDS for being GAY. But Africa have no medicines or hospitals to treat our sick people. You see the wickedness of the white man and woman. They know that we are FOOLS and we BLACKS always betray ourselves to them. We have no medicines or hospitals to treat our AIDS/HIV people but they want AFRICA to be infested with AIDS/HIV more. Africa have to pay for hospital treatment and medicines. IN the White man or woman countries-Hospitals and medicines are FREE OF CHARGE. They cheat us through TRADE. Take our goods free of charge, take our oils free of charge.
Ghana oil does NOT belong to Ghana, Ghana Gold does not belong to GHANA-They sign extortionate agreements with us and RIP US OFF. All that we receive is small taxation and royalties and that small money is stolen by the Akyem Abuakwa CRIMINALS
