...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...

“Anybody who thinks that Ghana Airport Company did a shoddy job, I will not side with that person because…when he came for the job, he did not come with any documents that indicated that the man is a criminal or a drug dealer until he was busted.”

You've got to be kidding me! Of course he won't come with documetns that indicate he is a drug dealer but it is your job to do a thorough investigation before appointing someone to such a sensitive role.

The National Security boss, Gbevlo Lartey, himself is not trustworthy. There is nothing like National security in Ghana, but NDC security. This so-called national security is so bias, so corrupt and can never be trusted. They always overlook the interest of Ghana and seek the interest of NDC. Look at how Gbevlo Lartey handled Yaw Boateng-Gyan's case when it came out that Yaw Boateng-Gyan was recruiting secret police to cause trouble in the country. We pray to see the end of NDC as soon as possible.

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...

RENOVATE THAT EYESORE IN ACCRA. ITS A DISGRACE.
ITS BEAST COMMON SENSE N BSUINESS SENSE TO HAVE 2 AIRPORTS IN THE SAME REGION.
WE NEED TO DIVERSIFY. AN AIRPORT IN KUMASI WILL BE GOOD FOR THE REGION.
THIS WILL ALSO LEAD TO THE CREATION OF BETTER ROAD TRANSPORT FROM KUMASI TO THE OTHER REGIONAL CAPITALS.
THE GH WORKERS AT THESE AIRPORTS ARE LAZY AND UNPROFESSIONAL. THE KLM GURLS ARE VERY BAD, NOT PROFESSIONAL AT ALL.
ALL THEY LOVE IS SPEAKING VERNACULAR. THIS IS AN INTL AIRPORT, NOT SOME AFUOM AIRPORT.
SPEAK ENGLISH! FISH OUT THESE EMPLOYEES WHO ACCEPT BRIBES. ITS DOSGRACEFUL
PAY THESE WORKERS COMPETITIVE SALARIES. IF YOU WANT MORE DOUGH, GO N SEEK A SECOND JOB AND STOP HARA$$ING PPL....

Placing drug barons to protect Kotoka
International Airport for what, to avoid drug traficking or to help export drug trafficking?

What credibility has this particular
cocaine trafficker Gbevlo Lartey got to put at the essential point to our
nation?

Is this Gbevlo Lartey not there before these NDC Fianciers exporting
cocaine to other European countries
and the United State?

How can a cat be detailed to protect
totobi? Ghana, we have a problem facing majority civilized people of
this nation.

Tsikata is one, that is why we have
Police whose duty it is to protect us
from Tsikata and his NDC bunch of criminals and that is why prison is
built so that we can quarantine all
those criminals. Tsikata must be
sent to quarantine and be forced to
stay out from the community, it is
because of that we the civilized citizenry are scared of Tsikata not
for any other reason. OK!! check it out...

Next time John Mahama's wife is travelling outside the country,her buttocks must be searched properly.Her dorsal protubalances hanging pendulously is a safe place to hide cocaine. It is a safe place to hide NDC cocaine exports,and the deployment of National security operatives at KIA is to facilitate that process.

US agents disguised themselves as drug dealers, holding meetings with the accused over the past year to buy thousands of dollars worth of Afghan heroin to distribute in Manhattan and the Bronx in New York city.

At a meeting on 25 February 2012 at Mr Adelaquaye's office at the airport in Accra, a US agent, named as CS-3, said he had hidden 1kg (2lb 2oz) of heroin in his laptop, the charge sheet alleges.

Mr Adelaquaye then instructed CS-3 to give the computer to an associate of his and after CS-3 passed through the security checkpoint at the airport, it would be returned to him, the charge sheet alleges.

"Also at that meeting, CS-3 gave Adelaquaye $6,000 (£3,900) cash to guarantee the safe passage of the heroin through the airport," it adds.

US agents had also given Mr Orjinweke $28,000 cash at a hotel in Accra on 22 February 2012 for supplying the heroin, and had later sent him a further $4,000 from New York, the charge sheet alleges.

It adds that at a separate meeting in Accra in May 2013, another US agent, posing as a Colombian dealer, discussed with Mr Adelaquaye, Mr Muodum and Mr Orjinweke a plan to supply them with 3,000kg of cocaine, valued at $25,000 per kilogram, in exchange for an amount of heroin of similar value.

"Adelaquaye, Muodum, and Orjinweke told CS-2 [the agent] that they could transport the heroin to the United States by airplane in multiple shipments of 25kg each," the charge sheet alleges.

The Ghanaian and Nigerians were arrested in New York soon thereafter, while Mr Pinedo-Rueda was apprehended in Colombia and is awaiting extradition to the US, the DEA said, in a statement.

Ghnaians: Please, listen to what the Chairman of the Ghana Airport Co. Ltd, Mr Hon Kuntu Blackson has to say:

“Anybody who thinks that Ghana Airport Company did a shoddy job, I will not side with that person because…when he came for the job, he did not come with any documents that indicated that the man is a criminal or a drug dealer until he was busted.”

Folks, the foregoing gives a clear pitcure of what is wrong at GACL. The GACL Chairman, inferentially, expected the Job Applicant to bring him information regarding his own criminal past.

Obviously, there were NO CHECKS of any kind.

In this post-Osama bin Laden world, there is a Chairman of an International Airport Company who thinks like this and is stupid enough to say it publicly.

What happened to all the Brainy and Tested and Proven Ghanaians that we have always proudly referred to and boast about? I will not be surprised to hear that either the Chairman himself or some cabral or both were in bed with the appointing authorities to annoint a Drug Baron as the Security Chief of Ghana's ONLY International Airport.

I Would love to find out who are on the Security Chief's private payroll.

WHAT A SHAME! For such argument from Mr Kuntu. When you employ people for such a sensitive place like the Airport, you good background checks. THIS IS VERY BASIC for all managers or CEO's. HE MUST RESIGN or 'sack himself'

A hillbilly gets married and on his wedding night he calls his father to get some tips on what to do, since he had never been with a woman before.
So he calls up his dad and asks him, "What do I do first?"
His dad says, "Take her clothes off and put her in bed. "
The hillbilly calls his dad 5 minutes later and says, "She's without clothes and in bed what do I do now?" His dad says, "Take your clothes off and get in bed."
He calls back 5 minutes later and says, "I'm without clothes and in bed with her what do I do now?"
His dad's patience is now running out so he says, "Look son do I have to spell everything out? Just put the hardest thing on your body where she pees!"
The hillbilly calls up 5 mins later and says, "OK Dad, I have my head in the toilet bowl what do I do now
