  ...The Government exercised the latter option when we disagreed over the judgment debt and other Gargantuan crimes. The Government, and my colleague Ministers at the time know that there was no provision for dismissal under my contract of employment as a Minister or that of any Minster.
  
  I reserve the right as a citizen of Ghana to protect and defend my honour and integrity should this civilized challenge for the truth be ignored.
  
  This is not the price I should be made to pay by the Government of Ghana for defending the Constitution of Ghana in the Waterville and Isofoton unconstitutional payments declared by the Supreme Court.

  Mandela has died without fully achieving the struggling for freedom. although South Africans have achieved political freedom, but they still left behind interms of economic freedom, freedom of association. The economy and worth are still in the hands of the white South Africans, leaving more black South Africans in an abject poverty.

  If South Africa black condition is what you say it is then why don't you hit the nail on its head? Stop beating about the bush. The whites handed over power to the blacks and to a black president. Its been over 20 yrs and still the black man is still struggling. The president is busy marrying many wives leaving the people behind, has forgotten about the struggle. Is a black African really sensible enough to manage its own affairs as Dr NKRUMAH once said? Mr Baako please answer me. I'll challenge you to a debate.

  Kofi, you may not be sensible enough to manage your own affairs or appreciate your own worth, but do not be deceived that all Africans are like you. There may be fools like you in Africa but that would not stop the rest of Africans from striving for better standards of living. Whether the change comes fast or slow, the struggle will continue.

  Mr. Baako,
  
  "Onipa beyee bi na wambeye ne nyinaa". This world is like a stage, we all come in to play our part, once our part is over, we leave the scene for the next generation of actors to come on stage.
  
  In the days of Mandela, South Africa was racially segregated and deeply entrenched with oppression. Thus, apartheid was the focus of Mandela's struggles. And, at the time of his death, such extreme segregation no more exist in South Africa.
  
  Therefore, it is up to new generation of leaders who see unfair distribution of wealth to work against such unfairness and social injustice.
  
  In summary, Mr. Baako, I singularly disagree with you based on my opinion, as I have stated above; that Mandela achieved results for his lifetime struggles.

  Africans own about 13 per cent of the land in SA. Nelson Mandela and the ANC failed to tackle the most important question in South Africa that is the land question, hence long after Mandela there would be bitter struggle similar to Zimbabwean land issue between the white minority who owns the richer and fertile lands and the African poor people. Mugabe would then be a hero in southern Africa. Land question is the most important issue that Mandela should have faced squarely from 1994 to 1998.
  As we mourn the death of Mandela, let the world remember that men like Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia, Samora Machel of Mozambique, Nyerere of Tanzania, Mugabe of Zimbabwe, Neto of Angola played key role in fighting the Western back white minority regime in SA. Thousands of Africans in the Frontline states died to make SA free. That we need to remember Chris Hani, Joe Slovo, Ruth First, Solomon Malgnu and other freedom fighters.
  RIP Uncle Tata!
  Forward ever.

  The great man, God bless him did what he could, the task was too great, he couldn't achieve the ultimate economic emancipation in South Africa. Though blacks have gained political power, it is meaningless without economic power. The black middle class have assumed a powerful economic posture but the majority have been left in the cold. The disparity between the rich and poor is massive This is a recipe for disaster. The place is waiting to explode.

  "Though blacks have gained political power,it is meaningless without economic power".
  That's the reason why I said on this site before,that anyone who aspire to lead the people,must identify the changes you want to achieved on paper(your plans,when successful) for which reasons you fight ,and not just in Speeches.And you don't ascend the throne before you plan that.Anyway.
  A genuinely greedless African Statesman,who laid down his life for the Freedom of his people.
  May his Soul rest in peace.

  Kwaku Boateng,you've made a good point as regard to how the Africans own 13% and the whites own the rest of the land in South Africa.The story of South Africa is known to all.Have you also realized how the extra expensive and houses are sold in our own country ( Ghana )by a white Italian( TRASACO )and how almost all of the buildings are named after the Italian towns(Villagio Siena and so on and on)right on the soils of our capital,Accra and so closer to the Accra Mall? i foresee the future of my dear Ghana as holding a great threat in many senses and I live you with many questions in mind.

  MANDELA WAS A REAL AND ONLY AFRICAN LEADER. I REMEMBER VERY WELL WHEN I WAS THEN IN SOUTH AFRICA AND HE WAS BEEN FORCED TO GO A SECOND TERM AS PRESIDENT. THIS IS WHAT HE SAID,"THERE ARE OTHER MEN AROUND WHO CAN CONTINUE WHAT I HAVE STARTED. I WANT TO BE ABLE TO WALK FREELY ON THE STREETS OF SOUTH AFRICA WITHOUT WATCHING MY BACK". A REAL AFRICAN LEADER INDEED. JOHN MAHAMA AND NANA ADDO SHOULD TRY AND COPY SUCH A NOBLE MAN. GOD BLESS HIS SOUL AND THIS IS A MAN GOING TO HEAVEN. AMEN.

  This speech delivered by Tata Mandela is really a revolutionary speech delivered to highlight the plight and struggles of the Black African people under white supremacy rule in South Africa. Mandela brought to the fore the challenges faced by the leaders leading to the majority rule. Indeed Mandela's ideal is worth dying for.
