OFFICE OF THE ODIKRO
a companion of the black star!

Thanks for raising the issue. The government has to be careful not to create the impression that there is no co-ordination going on! And care must be taken to ensure that the proper thing is done in respect of land grabbing!

Sincerely,

ARREST THESE FOOLS, JAIL THEM UNTIL A HEAVY BOND/BAIL IS PAID. GATHER THE EVIDENCE AND TAKE THEM TO COURT. PUT YOUR FUCKING FOOT DOWN! CONFISCATE THEIR ASSETS AND PAY OFF THESE MISMANAGED PROJECTS WITH THE PROCEEDS FROM THE PUBLIC AUCTION.
THEN JAIL AND PUBLISH THEIR NAMES IN THE MEDIA. NAME AND SHAME THEM. NKWASIAFOUR! NOT UNDER MY WATCH!
AHA NA WO B3 DA!
the pressing immediate problems confronting the countRY GHANA ARE - GALAMSAY EVERYWHERE, no electricity, no water, rife in corruption, high incompetence levels, etc.
At the moment JOHN MAHAMA has NOT articulated any vision for the country and his governance. Ghanaians don't know what he stands for except his mere promises and lies.
For sustainable socio-economic development Ghana needs ACCOUNTABLE GOVERNANCE not mere promises without action as characterised BY MAHAMA'S "leadership".

...So, the people around the president including his wife and those Team “B” staffers were aware of the president failing health. Therefore, who were they kidding when they ruin insults on whoever questions the former president health?
As much as I hate to admit Rawlings was right with his statement. If they have had listen to those who were concern with the president health, he might be alive today.

Rawlings is a looter of state factories, state lands, state vehicles, and state cash. Rawlings looted
Nsawam Cannery and Cocoa Processing Plant, and gave them to his wife. The state was deprived of factory equipment and the people of the traditional areas - on whose lands the factories were built - were deprived of their lands. Any other business person in Ghana starting a factory has to buy land and the industrial equipment. Calculate the price yourself! Not satisfied, the Rawlingses were able to get a a corrupt-judiciary “judgment debt” payment of US 5 million against the state, for the previous government allegedly stalling their enterprise. The fact of the matter is the Kufuor government was obliged to halt the acquisition of the factory by the Rawlingses, following the Auditor-General’s report detailing several improprieties.
Also when leaving office, Rawlings took several state vehicles as his personal property and settled himself in the Ridge Residence, a state-owned bungalow, without authorization. After torching the old building, Rawlings harassed and extorted then President Atta Mills to agree to pay for the reconstruction of the state-owned Ridge Residence as his own property, using his own contractor and according to his own plans. All this when the wealth of Rawlings is conservatively estimated at US 50 million dollars!

The Rawlings Retards should stop disturbing our ears with thoughtless crap!

When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

All the cacophony won't wash with some of us who know that Gbevlo-Lartey's people at BNI (Bureau of National Idiots) conspired with the MP of the area, Vanderpuije to burn the market in fulfilment of their promise to their Chinese backers to use the said land. The lands have already being sold and soon we shall all see who is doing business on these stolen lands. It is all planned by Ghana's most exploitative robbers called NDC Government. Pratt is only a ploy to whip up frenzy and divert attention from the higgle haggle always going on between different factions of thieving government...

These are all thieves ever stealing state lands and properties and selling assets belonging to the people. Thieves...CPP and NDC thieves are back again to strip us bare...they sell us words and take our wealth to enrich themselves...from some of the loudest talkative politicians as this prat!

Why can't we admit that it was wrong to give this non-performing bunch of semi-illiterate leaders of the NDC party a boot to stop the country's accelerated decay under their care.

DEAR RETARDED MARGARET,
How are you madam if indeed you a lady as I have my serious doubts about who you are. I am saying this because l have been able to unmask the real identity of so-called Dr. Michael Borkor who took to the airwaves for more than four years to disturb the peace of Ghanaians with his acerbic attacks on the most revered and peace campaigning political leader in present day Ghana, NANA ADDO-DANKWA AKUFFO-ADDO. I spent time, energy and money to monitor his movements and what did for leaving before it was uncovered that he was an operative of the partisan and untrusted national security apparatus. His main brief was to research on how to attack and destroy the hard won reputation of the cheated presidential candidate of the just gone elections. However, the more he did, the more popular this saint-like political personality became, even up to the time he was exposed by my powerful spy network l operating at the heart of government. Thanks be to Allah, MAWU, ?NYAME or GOD or whatever you choose to call the creator depending on the religion you profess or where you come, this man called BORKOR has been relieved of his post and reduced to a mere errand boy of the Gay vice president.

As a consequence of the outing of Dr. Borkor who claimed to be a PHD holder in political science but it turned to be a personality who specialised in nothing more than a rent boy of the gay community within the NDC, l strongly advise you to desist from bad-mouthing and destroying many a decent people of who Ghana who like nothing other than peaceful co-existence of all political parties and ethnic groups. In fact, I really do not think that you are called by that name and if indeed you are a woman, you have hidden your real identity to deceive nobody but your very self since you know what you are doing is very bad both in the eyes of humanity and creator of the universe. Sorry, let me digress again before l hammer on the substantive issue under discussion. For your information, that BORKOR whose his real identity is withheld from you as a protection of my miniature but powerful and influential spy network at the heart of the current interim administration was exposed as a bisexual who sleeps with women during the day and in the night allowed himself to be buggered by the gay NDC community and records showed that he was the prize choice of the veep and SOLOMON, the disgusted so-called American gay activist.

Madam, a title I have reluctantly chosen to address you because my doubts are that you are an operative the BNI, a lawful organisation but turned into an annex of NDC propaganda network. Besides you could a man using pseudonym as cover to protect your job and identity which on this occasion is acceptable under the job description in spy industry. I do not allow my operatives to use their real names either. Some of my operatives are highflying call-girls who regularly entertain sex-addicted members of the NDC who have got large disposable money stole from the taxpayer. It serves a tri-purpose for my workers and;
• They themselves satisfy their sexual ambitions of sleeping many men as possible
• Receive payment in return for sleeping with these useless and inexperienced people in government
• Extract information which I use in my analysis about this infantile and amateurish
Indeed, my girls deserve praises for teaching these novices how to make love to a woman but the downside of this argument is that it is serving as a covet meaning of condoning and conniving with wrongdoing in society. What I mean to say in relation to the sex payment is that the money they dash out to these women does not belong to these thieves in the first place. Conversely though, it is another way of redistribution of the national cake which is in the hands of few individuals who do not deserve to be in government.

Now let us return to the substantive issue under consideration you have contributed on the website. Madam-papa, all l can say is that you got it all wrong and at the end of the day all that you have succeeded in doing is that you have exposed your ignorance and shortcomings when it comes to matters regarding legal issues. The following are the observations l made from the shallow argument you advanced in that trash.
In the first place, the petition was jointly made by the three leading lights of the much loved NEW PATRIOTIC PARTY, the government in-waiting party and that the sworn affidavit are in the names of these perfect gentlemen. So all it is very strange that a person who claims to be all-knowing would choose not acknowledge it in her/his write-up but rather chose to throw dust into the minds of Ghanaians. Please, as a mark of respect, though as dodgy as I see you to be, most visitors to the website where NDC peddle nothing but lies and falsehood are well educated personalities who are able to analyse and draw independent conclusions from any article posted there. So this position is completely dismissed from my response to your trash.

In addition, Dr. MAHAMADU BAWUMIA is not struggling but as it has been observed so far, he is on top of his game. In fact, not only has he been able to convince Ghanaians that he is a presidential material whom the NPP can fall on in time of need in particularly and the country as whole. Moreover, he has exposed the much-harped TSATSU TSIKATA as yesterday’s lawyer whom no one should fall on regarding legal matters even at the basic level, bailing of suspects at police stations. He really has succeeded in making TSIKATA surplus to requirement in legal circles. He is the current laugh stock on radio and TV and certainly he has committed legal suicide to himself and also undermined NDC’s attempt to hang to power.

Furthermore, let me give you a bit of legal education that is, if you will choose to learn at all, in a join-suit, it is up to the joiners to elect anyone to take the witness stand and testify to convince the tribunal of facts if it is a jury trial that their case is worth considering by them and not the respondents’ response to issues raised against them in the petition. Alternatively, all of them can choose to testify individually to prove their case against their adversaries. Moreover, they can decide not to testify but their advocate will raise all the facts and apply legal reasoning to appeal to the tribunal facts that they should up their claims against the respondents. Without repeating myself, same applies to non-jury trial where the court serves a tribunal facts and apply the legal component of the legal system to come out with a decision which will either dismiss the claimant’s argument or make a case against the respondent(s). In case, regarding jury trial commonly associated with criminal matters, the court will direct the jury how to decide the outcome of the case.

Again, NANA AKUFFO-ADDO as it is certain that he will be made the president of the land by courtesy of judicial decision does not stand to gain personally as you claimed in your trash. At the end of the proceedings, its outcome will be a victory for Ghana in particular and Africa in general that violence is not an answer to electoral malpractices but legal means is the way forward to expose non-performing governments who choose fraud to perpetuate their stay in power. Certainly also is the issue of consigning foul-mouth NDC party to perpetual opposition for many years to come, though it is possibly that they can bounce back to power where they learn their mistake that arrogance and ignorance does not pay in electoral matters while in government and also providing that NPP themselves do not learn from the lessons of the former’s mistakes.
So so-called Margret Rockson, l wish to conclude that all the write-up appeared in your name on internet was nothing more than a trash as nothing shows that you made any research before you took to writing it
Likewise, you decided to please the NDC government instead of making a critical reappraisal of daily proceedings at the supreme. Maybe you did that to help MAHAMAH to sell the AK?MF?M in Burkina Faso and get a slice of the GHC150 billion.

A DEA officer stops at a ranch in Texas, and talks with an old rancher. He tells the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs." The rancher says, "Okay , but don't go in that field over there," as he points out the location. The DEA officer verbally explodes saying, " Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with me." Reaching into his rear pants pocket, he removes his badge and proudly displays it to the rancher. "See this badge? This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish.... On any land. No questions asked or answers given. Have I made myself clear? Do you understand? " The rancher nods politely, apologizes, and goes about his chores. A short time later, the old rancher hears loud screams and sees the DEA officer running for his life chased by the rancher's big Santa Gertrudis bull. With every step the bull is gaining ground on the officer, and it seems likely that he'll get gored before he reaches safety. The officer is clearly terrified. The rancher throws down his tools, runs to the fence and yells at the top of his lungs..... "Your badge. Show him your BADGE !"

The two bodies are completely different from each other. While the ministry of transportation is directly under the auspices of the central government, the municipal authority/assembly is a semi-autonomous body and thus have oversight responsibilities over lands and properties within its jurisdiction. The ministry of transportation can only lay claim to the property based on the mode of acquisition. This, however, is not to deny the fact that the central government and the decentralized authorities do not have overlapping functions. That clash of conflict of interest is what is being witnessed over the land and should not be misconstrued as land grabbing. But I think the municipal assembly can be advised to back off if the land was duly acquired by the central government for the purposes of the rail system. On the other hand, if the economic returns of the market goals far outweighs that of the rail system then why not? The municipal assembly can re-enter a renegotiation plea to repurchase the land.
