  • Alugu 11 years ago

    I don't hate Nigerians. I went to secondary school here in Ghana with many of them. They were good. Yes, I don't know what's in Nigeria that Ghanaians should go there for.

  • NEMESIS, UK 11 years ago

    TO SHOW THE WHOLE WORLD THAT GHANAIANS ARE RACISTS, AND DON'T DESERVE TO BE POPE. IS THAT CLEAR?

  • Kwaku 11 years ago

    Why should a dirty Nigerian be a Pope? To go and turn the Vatican into a gabage bin or call in Borkor Haram?

  • Alugu 11 years ago

    Kofi Annan ruled the world at U.N. for two terms. Turkson can be Pope for many many years too.

  • NEMESIS, UK 11 years ago

    Keep on dreaming. What did your moronic Kofi Annan, achieve apart from the BLOOD OF INNOCENT RWANDANS on his head. Do you want to kill about two billion Catholics worldwide by electing another Ghanaian BLOOD SUCKERS????

    True but have you also thought of the fact that maybe Father Turkson like most Ghanaians fear RESPONSIBILITY and might be thinking this is too big for him. I'm not saying that's the case but something worth thinking about.

  • nanatom 11 years ago

    It is not true that God will ordain a "Pope." Pope is not in the Bible, and we should therefore, not expect God to have anything to do with the position. Pope, father, sister, brother, monk, etc are not found in the Bible. St ...

    A "black pope" will hasten the

    The Green Eagle of Nigeria won the African Cup and I as a Ghanaian will see a Nigerian Pope before a Ghanaian Pope. Obama for White House, Black Pope for the Vatican now. It's a thought, not a gospel.
