pepeni like all evil men in history is saying its God who gave him victory , Hitler , Stalin and all the intrinsically evil men including Satan also claimed the same. pepeni has put only his own Muslim pepefuo in charge of all key aspects of the nation and their main agenda is to recolonize the Akans so we are his slaves and servants . he has deceitfully used and abused the so called democratic process to achieve this. he is not interested in the welfare of the majority but to push into further poverty and misery the great nations of Akan so that his dimwitted pepeni idiots can handle things easier. today we are now in a feudal middle ages mentality era with no water , electricity or decent wages . any Akan who wishes to do anything good for his own people is frustrated bullied and mobbed by the state and called the worst of names if not thrown outright in jail or killed. championing his cause are the ayigbe who have mastered the art of the hatred of the Akans and together with the agenda of hegemony and chauvinism succeeded in making the lives of most Akans unbearable . let them know God is on our side and we shall win our freedom sooner than they think, long live the republic of Akan

Thank you Brave Boy. Amnesty International and their local puppets in Ghana should go to the Indian Reservations in the USA, the Reservations for Black people in Australia, the ghettoes and slums in the US, the many islands around the world where Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, Australia, some of the Scandinavian countries and the US are still oppressing entire races of people under colonial bondage in this 21st Century.

Amnesty International should go to Iraq where one of the most abominable acts of political insanity has reduced an entire country into chaos causing several millions of unnecessary deaths and still counting by the hundreds each week. They should go to Libya where the same tragedy is happening. They should go to Pakistan where the same thing is happening. They should go to Syria and Iran where the same group of rogue states are re-enacting the same genocidal mischief upon the people of those countries.

Amnesty International, like the International Criminal Court, is just an appendage of the criminal global imperialist system that is out to oppress and exploit the non-European peoples of the world to sustain the luxurious lifestyle of those of European descent.

We dont recognize their nonsense and their hypocritical double-standards standards that are only meant to deceive and manipulate!

WHERE WAS AI DURING CHATTEL SLAVERY WHEN EUROPEANS KIDNAPPED, RAPED,EXPLOITED, MURDERED AFRICANS FOR OVER 400 YEARS TO ENABLE THEM BECOMR WEALTHY. WHERE WAS AI WHEN THE SAME EUROPEAN TURNED ROUND AFTER THE FAKE ABOLITION OF SLAVERY AND ENSLAVED AFRICANS AGAIN CALLING IT COLONIALISM WHICH ENABLED THEM TO RAPE AFRICA FOR OVER 200 YEARS. WHERE WAS AI WHEN THE EUROPEAN GAVE FAKE POLITICAL INDEPENDENCE INDEPENDENCE TO AFRICA, BUT MADE SURE AFRICA DID NOT MAKE ECONOMIC PROGRESS.

Homosexuality is evil and wrong. Even animals do not practice homosexuality but people who are wrong in their thinking do this horrible and dirty practice. Think about it, putting your penis in the anus of another man is dirty by all standards and biologically unhealthy.
God condemns it with unexplainable wrath. Why would any sensible human being do such a thing. Wrong thinking and mad people talk about being born that way and therefore it is "biologically" explainable. The simple question is: How can you claim to be a woman and yet biologically carry male anatomy and vice versa? It is only madness at its height if not demonic for anyone to call himself homosexual or lesbian.

It's better to change than for Amnesty International to condone such reprehensible behavior. Amnesty International itself is a haven for homosexuals anyway.

Humans are renewable natural resources and we renew ourselves through reproduction.WE are not like bacteria that undergo binary fission to replenish themselves. It has been said that "we must use the right tool for the right job" which implies that a hammer must be used for nails; not a finger, a screw driver for the screws, penis for the vagina; not penis for the anus. The anus is an opening to release fecal matter (faeces) and nothing else. You can not make a woman pregnant by introducing semen in her anal opening. Amnesty International was established by human beings whose parents were produced through heterosexuality; not homosexuality.If their parents were homosexuals, they wouldn't have been born to make this dangerous comments. If God supported homosexuality, He would have created two Adams and the human race would have ended right in the garden but God believes in heterosexuality that is why HE CREATED FOR THE MAN, A WOMAN to renew the human race through procreation. Homosexuality is the number threat to the human race and must be eliminated now and not in the shortest possible time. I support the human being in the homosexual; not the homosexual in the human being. Come again Amnesty Whatever.

Enkwesia sem!!! why don't they try this in Asian. People are trying to find food to eat in the face of foreigners stealing everything we have and all you can bring up is give more rights to people we don't even know. The real intentions is to spread it and destroy our societies. Like you said, 5 people were killed in SA. How many people die every year trying to reach Australia and guess what their PM thinks the dead bodies should be left on the high seas and Amnesty Int dares to skip that and talk to us about changing the laws we feel comfortable with. You press us and we will even add more. Enkwesia sem.

Amnesty International is a useless body. Why instead of defending good cases they are always in the wrong side? What we are saying is that the new international economical order must be respected by the so called developed country. They should not impose us the prices of our goods while we are not involved in the pricing of their goods. Let Amnesty International fight for that and just that.

They should not interfere in our cultural affairs. We are saying that homosexuality is un-African, is immorality, is mental sickness, is just whit people business and not ours. So what is Amnesty international business?

Don't bring that kind of nonsense and sin in Africa. Africans are mentally and physically balanced people.Let gather our lost boys men and women involved in that dirty business and burn them so that they don't spoil and dirt our holy soil, African soil.
