  No one is asking for a coup. All they are saying is that the gov should be alert becasue there is a possibility of a coup. Please don't twist peoples words. Again NO one is asking for coup and they are not coup mongers.

  And you think the coup makers will not deplete our national coffers??? Look at people like Kabila, Eyadema and the likes. At least now we can talk about it and ultimately register our displeasure at the ballot box. What do you think is the primary cause of all the woes in Africa? If you think things are bad in Ghana at the moment then a coup will make it worse. A better and more democratic option, in case you don't want to sit down unconcerned, is to opt for a massive civil demonstration accross the whole country to send a strong message to the governing body that the good people of Ghana are indeed not happy with them.

  NPP is lost in wonderland. The very coup they abhore so much in the past they now wany to resort to. No hope in the court case, no hope in the strike actions. Now desperate NPP wants coups, unfortunately they don't have 'men with balls' to execute such actions. All 'the courageous men' in the country belong to the NDC. Check Ghana's history. If any bull jokes we would capitalise on that and seize all the assets and cars driven by these lazy parliamentarians and the NPP looting brigade. They will cough the ex-gratia and we(soldiers) will revert all the lands looted during Kufour's regime to the state. Try anything stupid and NPP will be the loosers.

  Almost all civil wars in Africa started with a coup. Here are some of the list: Nigeria War, Liberia War, Ivory Coast War, Sierra Leone War, Congo war, Ethiopian War, the Rwanda War etc. Ghana has just been lucky in the past but not in the future. Those from the south of Ghana (especially the Akans) who think the northerners will welcome a coup without a fight should think again. You can't remove Limann and Mahama before completion of their term, but allow Rawlings, Kuffour, and even Mills to complete their term. Whether competent or not, Mahama has the right to complete his 4 yr term as mandated by the constitution. Ghanaians will fight any coup maker head on. Our coward days are over - when we allowed few secondary school level soldier sergeants with guns to hijack the country.

  Inspite of the fact that Ghana for the first time in 15 years has had a continuous practice of democratic governance and immensely benefited from it, Dr Tony Aidoo is virtually calling for a coup d'etat.
  
  Dr Aidoo, a former Deputy Defence Minister in the erstwhile National Democratic Congress (NDC) government headed by J.J Rawlings made the call on Radio Gold’s "Alhaji and Alhaji show," a current affairs programme last Saturday.
  
  "Conditions have been created today that will justify ten coups d’etat, conditions have been created that will justify ten coup d'etat and over," charged Dr Aidoo belligerently.
  
  According to him, inspite of the fact that Ghanaians had pledged "that we don't want change of government through the barrel of the gun but rather through the ballot box doesn't mean that we must tolerate an incompetent government that came to rule rather than administer our resources in our interest."
  
  He railed against the ruling New Patriotic Party government, headed by President J.A Kufuor, accusing it of arrogance and inefficiency in all spheres including policy making and administration.
  
  According to him, the Government had been bankrupt of ideas in managing and appropriating energy for the country's use. He maintained that he and others of like mind would hit the streets should the government ask for increase in energy tariffs.
  
  He said: "The moment they announce tariff increases we will hit the streets. We are tired of paying for the inefficiencies of this government, for the extravagance of this government, for the corruption of this government, we are tired.”
  
  He placed the current energy crisis at the doorstep of President Kufuor, saying that the President was not bothered about the common man's need for electricity.
  
  "Do you think President Kufuor gives a damn about you common people," Dr Aidoo spurted, adding "He doesn't care whether you have light or not because he wants the light for himself."
  
  Dr Aidoo: "Listen, he is talking about paying more tariffs, 'toofiakwa yen tua'. Why should we pay for increased tariffs?"
  
  According to him, the Government had been insensitive to the plight of Ghanaians and would never, because of the element of intellectual bigotry apologise to Ghanaians whenever it erred, especially in relation to the current crisis.
  
  He said intellectual bigotry had led the NPP government to ignore advice from experts "from persons who know nothing.".
  
  Comparing his boss, ex-President Rawlings to Kufuor, Dr Aidoo said the former had been more proactive and desirous of solving and preventing national tragedies.
  
  He cited the example of the ex-President's tendency to wade in flood waters as not "because he was making showmanship, it was genuine concern."
  
  Dr Aidoo added that when the energy crisis struck in 1998, Rawlings called two emergency high powered cabinet meetings to which persons known to be affiliated to the NPP but at the time held strategic positions in the energy sector were invited.
  
  He castigated the government for inefficiency, saying since 2005 the nation had been losing ¢700 billion a year.
