    Not unlike jon mahama, Solomon Nkansah is another stupid NDC thief. Let him spew the nonsense from his brain and do the foolish. A fool is a fool is a fool is a fool is a fool as always.

  • Mr Figure-Out 10 years ago

    No pastor has been task to run business for Ghana so it is so pathetic to hear that foolish talks from that useless propaganda secretary. Pastors are accountable to the church but not to the state. And the constitution is cle ...

    Is NDC serious about corruption? They should continue to justify why corruption cannot be stopped in this government.Shame on you

  • MAXIMUS 10 years ago

    I suggest we invite Al-shabab to come and start killing our MPs/leaders and to won them of their corrupt attitude. This i think will put fear in them to stop corruption.

  • Kwabena 10 years ago

    Be careful of what you wish for. Once Al-Shabab or whatever you are inviting finish off your corrupt MPs/Leaders, they will bring in Sharia law and start bombing Ghana.

    That is definitely not the solution. Ghanaians first ...
