The Martin Amidu victory cannot be claimed by the NDC any longer so they will turn against him as before with all the propaganda machinery under their control. If any man can share his honour, that would be Kennedy Agyapong Who brought out the deal. The next is Yaw Osafo Marfo who declared the air that Woyome had no contract with the government. Atta Mills should be blamed for his declration that Woyome deserved every pesewa of the theft only to turn round to accept that he personally warned them twice not to pay the money and that it was wrong.

NDC yesterday with Rawlings is not NDC today from Mills to Mahama. NDC is not doing our country well. They are all corrupted and corrupt from their feet to their head. What is going in Ghana today is very serious. So many sickness we did not have in the past is brought through galamsay and the government is not doing anything against it. Greediness, selfishness, organised crime is what they are heading. Rather unfortunate, we have people following these fools, who doom and blind to a nonsense point that they can not deferenciate trabalism from nationalism. Or from patriotism from corruption.

Poor people selling our country to now the Arabs and China.

WE THANK GOD FOR THE LIFE OF ST. MARTIN AMIDU. IT COULD BE RECALLED THAT, EVIL CORRUPT NDC BASTARDS SACKED ST. MARTIN FOR DEFENDING THE POOR PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY. TO BE PRECISE, FOR FIGHTING CORRUPTION IN EVIL NDC GOVERNMENT. THE NDC MAN (ATTA MILLS) WHO SACKED HIM , WAS THE SAME MAN WHO ONCE SAID "GHANA WILL BE LIKE KENYA" THIS SO CALLED ASOMDWE HENE IS NOW BURRIED AT A PLACE CALLED ASOMDWE PARK. VERY RIDICULOUS!!! LOOK AROUND AND YOU CAN EASILY FEEL, SMELL AND SEE IT. THIS IS NOT THE GHANA KUFFOUR HANDED OVER TO THESE NDC CORRUPT BASTARDS, AS THEY ARE AFFECTIONATELY KNOWN BY THEIR EQUALLY CORRUPT FOUNDER. KUFFOUR IS INDUBITABLY THE BEST PRESIDENT EVER IN OUR HISTORY!!!!-----FELLOW COUNTRYMEN, WHO CAN PROVE KWASI ADADE WRONG?? NDC IS THE WORST THING EVER TO HAVE HAPPENED TO GHANA.

WHY DO PPL ENGAGE IN BRIBERY N CORRUPTION?
IS IT THE SALARY NOT ENUFF? FIX IT, PAY THESE WORKERS WELL
IS IT GREED? IF YOU FEEL YOUR SALARY IS NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU, GO N GET 2ND JOB. DOLT HARASS PPL FOR BRIBES.
THIS IS UNLAWFUL AND A CRIME IN ITSELF.
THOSE IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR WHO ARE WRONG AND CHARGED WITH CORRUPTION BY THE POLICE/STATE WILL BE TRIED THERE.
MALAYSIA HAS A SIMILAR CONCEPT AND IT IS REAPING REWARDS.THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THESE STUPID ANIMALS WILL EVER LEARN.
ARREST THESE FOOLS, JAIL THEM UNTIL A HEAVY BOND/BAIL IS PAID. GATHER THE EVIDENCE AND TAKE THEM TO COURT. THE CHIEF JUSTICE MUST PUT THEIR FUCKING FOOT DOWN! CONFISCATE THEIR ASSETS AND PAY OFF THESE MISMANAGED PROJECTS WITH THEIR 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".
Argentina’s president has announced increases of as much as 35 percent in cash handouts to the poor, students, pregnant women and retirees.
President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner said the programs also will reach nearly 700,000 more children, expanding the social safety net and encouraging consumer spending this election year. She said the total cost of the subsidies would grow $7.8 billion a year.
GH MUST FIND A SOLUTION TO THESE PRESSING ISSUES: high level corruption, CITIZEN IDENTIFICATION, insecurity, unemployment, LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE and infrastructure decay as the major problems confronting africa's development.
LOOK, YOU CAN BROADEN THE TAX BASE AS MUCH AS YOU WANT...UNREALIZED CAPITAL GAINS, GIFTS TO FAMILY/PERSONAL CHARITIES, TAXING THE RICH, ETC...YOU CAN CLOSE ALL THE LOOPHOLES ALL YOU WANT, BUT IF YOU DONT FIND A WAY TO DEAL WITH PUBLIC SECTOR CORRUPTION. U END UP PREACHING TO THE CHOIR.
REDUCE GOVT SPENDING. LOWER PUBLIC SECTOR SALARIES. MORE MANUFACTURING. CORRUPTION COURTS. MORE PRIVATE SECTOR ROBUST BUSINESSES. LOWER IMPORTS AND FREE TRADE.
WE NEED AN ATTITUDINAL CHANGE TO MAKE THE ECONOMY WORK IN GH.
PROGRESS IS A MODEL OF PRODUCTIVE DESTRUCTION. U NEED TO MAKE MISTAKES BEFORE YOU SUCCEED. THE GOVT SHOULD PULL BACK AND ALLOW THE ECONOMY TO PROGRESS. TOO MUCH GOVT INTERVENTION STIFLES PROGRESS.
06/17/2013: Just this morning, Montreal Mayor Michael Applebaum was arrested at his home by the city's anti-corruption police. "Tens of thousands" were paid in bribes in return for permit approvals police say.

HE CAN ADVICE AND HELP GH WITH AIRPORT INFRASTRUCTURE, OIL EXPLORATION, ROAD, RAIL PROJECTS. VERY INTELLIGENT MAN

I find it hypocritical and cheap for political surrogates and organisations such as AFAG to try to profit from Hon. Martin Amidu's 'triumph' in court. Perhaps groups like AFAG are forgetting that this fight by Amidu was for something that started at the time of the Kufuor administration.

Furthermore, even the man himself has openly and publicly declared that he takes no glory in what has been achieved, and does not wish to celebrate. He went on further to say that he was happy that the PEOPLE of Ghana and the CONSTITUTION were the winners and not an individual.

So, how can a group like AFAG seek to profit where it has not sowed? And for good measure, they drag the president into it and have the nerve to say he is clueless on matters of corruption. Why did they not comment on the president's recent speech on "SILENT CORRUPTION" which has sipped into the very fabric of how we go about business in Ghana and one which even these AFAG signatories might themselves not be immune from?

It is not only disingenuous but cheap and gutter politics for anyone to try to capitalise on an outcome which followed failings on the part of both NPP and NDC governments involving losses of huge amounts to the State. It is refreshing to see that in our functioning democracy where the rule of law still exists, ONE MAN can take on the ESTABLISHMEN on behalf of the PEOPLE of Ghana and at his OWN cost, and sacrifice his career and office for the truth in this manner.

What AFAG (and similar groups) should be doing is not just applaud the person and try to make undeserved political gain out of the situation, but to dig deep and examine their own consciences, actions, practices and their own sly ways of going around financial discipline, honesty and integrity. When you live in a glass house, remember, PLEASE DON'T THROW STONES.

You are damn right. But don't forget that Mills was killed because he was setting up a committee to investigate Jon Mahama's numerous crimes. That is why he was strangled and killed in a broad daylight even as he was seriously ill and bed ridden. For this reason, Atta Mill's autopsy will never be known by any Ghanaian because the receiver is the distributor so we are back to square one on that. Thanks your majesty.
