This is no news. All Ghanaian Politicians are stomach politicians. They will neither refuse or resign Ministerial position on political differences or principles. They all lack high moral values.

Hold up Sekou, because politicians in Ghana and Africa only care about attribution bias. Their success depends in internal factors but they will always attribute their failures to external and situational factors…..therefore, Bagbin will swallow his pride and accept this position because his Ghanaian politician who cares less about pride…..

what a wonderful govt , we have all these compulsory fasting and holidays for these pepeni Muslims and its only now they remember we are predominately christian . no matter what we shall ban this menace Islam soon as they are a minority and in any normal country there would not be that much emphasis on Islamic holidays , gay rights or unbalance domination of minority ethnic / tribal groups in govt and govt institutions. we welcome ken agyapong as a leader and maybe if they are lucky nana addo may come in as his vice but personally i would prefer he takes an Akan radical nationalist as his vice since he himself is very liberal and moderate . Ghana belongs to the Akans and all those who dont want to be a part of it we would gladly save our money and give them their independence or autonomy .these pepeni/ayigbe fools we unhappy with prof eduboahen , kuffuor ,mills, nana addo and any Akan leader but when a new one arises the previous one who was considered inappropriate all of a sudden becomes more palatable . today these ndc idiots are all crying for alan cash and nana addo the moment they seen ken agyapong on the horizon coming in his full Akan glory. when ken is reject then perhaps a true hard core radical loyal to the akan cause will arise and then i will be appointed head of police or national security. then we shall see a change in the ratio , then 9 out of 10 convictions for various crimes of corruption and theft will be non Akans the rest will be those who treacherously betrayed us . we shall also see the exodus of the non Akans , the destruction of non Akan businesses and the general atmosphere and climate will be that all non Akans are criminals and should be shunned or denied and participation in crucial national affairs . yes we shall have our revenge and justice . no more free education for them , only for us . no more privatization of Akan resources to foreigners and those whose agenda is to undermine the Akan economy like we see with the gold industry and 10 billion every year leaving the country as we shall nationalize and redistribute to all our citizens. jj will meet the firing squad as he so rightly deserves . pepeni's father we hear was carrying toilet in nima before nkrumah made him a minister so we understand his intellectual deficiency and incompetence as his father couldnt give him love or buy him toys so he has because an envious , womanizing son of a bitch with sodomizing tendencies and greed beyond comprehension . then is coming soon as his days are numbered and will surely be held accountable for his non action in development and his deep seated corruption and evil soul .

Oteng Adjei for introducing GMO poison in Ghana, Buah for believing superstition will solve energy probles, Hannah Tetteh for working as a foreign agent and incompetence, Rashid pelpuo for destroying industries in Ghana and for total ignorance of what it takes to develop, Armah Ashitey for lack of ideas and arrogance, Fuseini for being a spokesman for mining companies and no knowledge of mining law, Tekper for no ideas and incompetence, Oye Lithur for talk without work and for promoting homo and abolish that Ministry altogether, it is a waste of tax payers money.

President Mahamah is not going to RUSH through parliamentarian process for a PDA for the purpose of 'terrorizing' his adversaries as an ARCH enemies! Be careful Dr Sekou, and tread down cautiously in your politics; Merry Christmas to you

It takes an honest person to speak his/her mind in Ghana, especially if that speech is not going to be palatable to a boss.

I am yet to read any sensible argument from the many speeches from Sekou Nkrumah.

Bagbin is a Ghanaian, Bagbin is a member of the NDC. He has the right as a Ghanaian to point out the areas of governance that need to be corrected for the progress and good of Mother Ghana.

An intelligent argument will be for Dr Sekou to challenge Bagbin to deliver, if appointed as a minister; to challenge Bagbin to contribute to fighting corruption, if appointed as a minister.

The kind of childish and unintelligent argument from Dr Sekou is not progressive in a country like Ghana.

Does it mean that since Dr. Sekou is always bashing (even though unnecessary sometimes) President Mahama, if he is offered a position that he is very competent and can contribute to the progress of Mother Ghana, he will refuse to serve?

Dr. Sekou, grow up.

Bagbin is still an NDC member. He can be appointed any position but have the right to criticize the government in order not to lose next election. Sekou must understand politics and not just talking. Does Sekou want only people who will not criticize the government to obtain positions? Critics would be better than sycophants like Sekou who will always sing to the master's tune. People like Bagbin, Martin Amidu are to be given posts not Sekou-type.

Sekou is gradually depleting his father's image - and it is sad, indeed! Such a great man, like Kwame Nkrumah, having a child with a behaviour like this (Sekou) beats all sound minds. The fourth child of Nkrumah is very different from the other three. He's too capricious, irresponsible and shoots from the hip. Perhaps, not nearing his father at the learning age at adolescent period is causing him many problems. The lack of nearness to his father at that critical period of his life has impinged badly on his demeanour. In that respect, he deserves a bit of sympathy.
