Listen. Stop judging the dead. Whatever, the late President did or didn't do is now between him and our Maker.

Almighty will surely deal with him as nothing can save him. Did he(mills) confess, repent and seek for the forgiveness of Ghanaian s? what ever we pretend to can't save or punished but his deeds.

what a load of bullshit , they come and weaken our institutions and pepeni by corrupting them all into compliance and say something good can come out of this , china is at war against Africa and is doing everything to ensure the so called dimwitted idiot leaders who only think how to chop today as for them there is no tomorrow do their biding . so disastrous is their policy that the people end up being enslaved for generations to come . the chinese admit their army of citizens are here to exploit but where in the world have any people benefited by being exploited. their warped sick toxic policy will sooner or later be their own undoing

Ghanaians tend to worship their leaders, Vitus being no exception. There's very minimal objective analysis of ghanaian leaders performance in office whilst they yet live and even after they pass on. Independent analysis is almost non-existent because of the political/tribal culture that exists within our system. There's too much partisanship and polarization in national politics and social issues, subjecting every issue to the chicanery and jaundiced views of political acrobats and tribal bigots .We are like a people running a steeplechase race with both eyes closed. In our jaundiced eyes every ghanaian leader is super human whose actions are devoid of mistakes if you're their supporter and a villain/dummy who's incapable of doing anything right if you belong to the opposite camp. In death the affections and disaffections never change."You dare not challenge my hero!" Really absurd! That's a real problem, a national tragedy because we're never able to make a correct assessment of their performance in order to draw useful lessons from their tenure of office. When the lessons are missed we're more likely to repeat the mistakes. This has been the story of our lives. We've been going round in circles, actually going nowhere because we refuse to learn useful lessons.Until we sit up and become realists , until we wake up to the fact that our elected leaders are just as human as anybody else and fallible we will accept mediocrity for excellence and failure for success.Nkrumah, Danquah, Busia, Limann, Rawlings, Kuffuor, Mills, none of these were perfect by any stretch of the imagination.They succeeded and failed to some extent and it's up to us now living and those that will come after us, for our own good, to put emotions aside and determine the actual performance of our political leaders. We elected them to office and they're accountable to the electorate, whether we voted for him or not.Their actions and inactions affect all of us and it's important to be clear eyed when assessing their performance.

This is a good question, but incomplete. I wish you will be fair enough in asking such a question. My point is that, if you can ask such a question without asking of former president Kufour a sudden reach president in the history of Ghana, I would have give you credit. What I can say here is there is something wrong with you. Actually Mills is one of the most corrupt leaders who encourage corruption instead of stoping it.

John,
You are very right. It is said that "every society gets the leaders it deserves." Our politicians have realised that the majority of the people who live on the landmass called Ghana are fickle-minded, shallow and unthnking(and you can tell that from the comments posted so far.) So they go to even the so-called educated, tell them plain faced lies and they have their votes.

I know a lady whose direct uncle was tied to the stake and shot by Jerry Rawlings for taking a loan he was servicing monthly, but who still thinks the armed robber is the best thing that happened to Ghana since Tetteh Quarshe brough cocoa down from Fernando Po.

It is a mind set and until we cure that, we are not going anywhwre soon. Someone said "headache you can cure and so is stomach ache or toothache, but stupidity is somethig else."

If this government cares, how come a minister like mumbarak from kumasi should ask for the marriage of a 14 year girl at this 21st centurt.
can he mumbarak use his long penis to scrull his 14 year old daughter?
shame unto him, where ever did he come from before his people settled in Kumais/Ghana.
he should rather think and bring some good things to the the nation other than teenage marriages, More beautiful and grown up women are plenty in Ghana now.

The question intelligent and sophisticated persons would and should ask is why did Barton-Odro not correct the late Atta Mills when he made those statements? The one thing that is as sure as death in Ghana is lying politicians. If John Yawose is as bold and upright as he takes his cheap shot at the dead he would have had the guts to ask why some companies that have contractually dealt with the governments of J.J. Rawlings and Kufour end up with dispute over what is and is not a binding legal contract.
Why do you John Yawose not hear about this letter from Wayome and others since until Barton-Odro came to the witness stand? Are documents produced in government offices across Ghana not part of government work products? Why would Barton-Odro be the one and only one to know of the existence of the said letter and no one else since the Wayome saga began?

Mills certainly knew something about the criminal payments of the dubious settlement debt payments but could not have done anything about it because he was sick, ineffective and Mahama and his criminal gangsters took advantage of the weak President paid the money and shared state money among themselves at the blind side of the sick President, Atta Mills.

Otherwise, why should Mahama support Barton Oduro as the Deputy Speaker of Parliament when all know he is a Woyome associate criminal and why has this case not fast rack?

The NDC is full of dubious criminal characters and the reason why they will hate to gang up against the honest Martin Amidu and got him dismissed.
