Did you feel it, the over hyped speech from Dubai? Look John Mahama I am eating my fufu right now, do not come and spoil my appetite and heart at the same time. It will take more than wishful thinking to deliver, okay, success does not depend on hopes and wishes or even prophecy like you are trying to do. Clean your cabinet of the deadweights and corrupt ministers and party functionaries and roll out real programs and policies with the requisite top notch managers, not the mediocrities you have over there now whose only qualifications were how much propaganda and insults they were able to spin around. You can't do huu!

And just what did you mean by "new era of property and opportunity?" It is remarkable to notice that after looting our resources and helping your brother to amass huge wealth under your watch, you have now abandoned your often mentioned "social democrats" mantra. Gradually you have realized how bogus and hollow that ideology was, you are unmistakably evolving towards the "property owning" liberals. Alas you have realized your folly.

TOO LATE TO BUY TIME OR PATIENCE with a reshuffle as the cat is already out of the bag and everybody knows ndc has no plan or agenda to develop the country . in the zeal of hatred fueled by ewe hegemony and northern tribalism have only succeeded in cementing the road to failure and chaos . without the unity of the majority Akan it will be impossible to tap into the progressive potential and power of the nation . a house divided can never stand and the evil force , motive and destruction is within this ndc , they can never unite the country's peoples , can never be trusted by the diaspora , can never have the legitimacy to take bold courageous decisions to develop and at the same time ensure the wealth of the nation stays with the people of the nation . jj comes out accusing only Akans but i have never heard him accuse his own ewes of the atrocities m corruption and crimes they have so evidently committed such as woyome , murder of innocents and public floggings . he wages a propaganda and economic war with the help of his ndc against the Akans in order to establish his legacy of doom . yes they say we are motivated tribalism but dont see we have no choice but to defend ourselves . we only need to be a little observant to notice these truths and a little common sense to know nothing good can ever come out of this conspiracy of evil against the Akans . our chiefs like asantehene and some religious leaders for 30 pieces of silver again advocate that we assist this menace to further destroy our future just as was done during the slave trade . it is time for the quiet majority to stand firm and reject this criminal mafia that has so metastasized into all corners of govt that only war can set us free . long live the republic of Akan

The corrupt addicts and the thievery
NDC criminals has robbed this nation beyond total recovery, Mahama bought a mansion at Dubai where he is holidaying through the the stolen the 35 boxes of Gold Bars which was arrested at the Turkish Security Officials as the Turkey Airport.

Why is Mahama not holidaying in Ghana,
if Ghana is seen paradise under his corrupt, thievery and hopeless administration?

The people of this nation requires a President who has vision, credibility,
political emancipation, selfless and
dynamic not corrupt, deceitful, dishonest, a liar, womanizer, incompetent, Judgement Debt administrator, selfish and economical
uselessness and chaotic.

Mahama is a crook who robbed the conscience of the majority people of this nation for his own selfish interest it is upon such, he cannot deliver and everything he tries to do
will not end well, he and his NDC bunch of criminals are just a curse to
our nation.

You better accept it or leave it. So
are you comfortable the way Mahama is leading this nation? Where are you still at where you are now, but not come home and smell the shit of that idiot crook?

Mr. Smart Frempah, I can see that you have been seriously brainwashed into thinking that the colour black portends everything bad or negative. This must be the warped thinking that makes you conclude that the President's black attire is incongruous with his message of hope for 2014. Not so?

I think people like you need to be properly schooled. The logical conclusion one can derive from your warped mindset is that nothing good can come to the Blackman because he has a colour that portends everything evil. If the colour black really portends evil and negativity, then will it matter what colour a Blackman attires himself in since the colour of his clothes will only stay with him temporarily for a few hours after which he must cast the clothes off and contend with his very blackness for the rest of his day at home, in bed, in the shower and everywhere else except the few times he dresses up for public engagements?

I can understand people like Smart Frempah and the warped thinking that they have become victims of. In European culture and thinking, black portends everything bad and evil and hence in the English language we have expressions connoting negativity or evil deeds such as BLACKMAIL,BLACK SHEEP, BLACK LIST, BLACK MAGIC, BLACK FRIDAY, BLACK DEED, BLACK HUMOUR,BLACK PROPAGANDA, BLACK RADIO, BLACK GOVERNMENT PROGRAMME, BLACK RESENTMENT, DENIGRATE (which literally means to paint someone black)ETC.

It is high time we the black race redefined these concepts to prevent our descendants from living in mental slavery like my brother Smart Frempah. I understand the English use the expression "to take a French leave" to connote an unceremonious and hasty departure from a place (NB: a kind of negativity). The French never allowed this to settle into their psyche so they also use the expression "filer à l'anglaise" (meaning "to take English leave") to refer to just the same behaviour. So Mr. Smart Frempah, people like you need some serious schooling to be freed from mental slavery. Have a great 2014, boy!!!

Thanks KT. You got my message but Osei Tawiah seems to have missed it completely. If western culture and ideas have dominated the world, it does not mean we are bound to follow these western ideas without re-examining them to see whether they make sense to us. If the whole of Africa, with its over one billion people inside and outside Africa, starts to redefine some of these concepts and ideas, who says we cannot change the world of tomorrow? Must we be enslaved to western ideas forever?

Master it's not hatred; we voted for him to be a president and not a prophet.

If you call this bush behavior recognition then i beg your pardon. Nana doesnt want it. He want to be a real president and speak to his people from Ghana.

GHANAWEB obviously did not proofread this New Year message before posting the video.
New era of "property and opportunity".
"So that we can all have a significant state in this country".
I guess when you are busy feeding the hoipoloi who are interested in nothing but heaping insults on political opponents, you don't feel obliged to proofread.
Prosperity and opportunity for all our citizens...
So that we can all have a significant stake in our country...
The meaning of the New Year message was not grasp by many people who were just there looking for somebody to insult.
I call on the Almighty to continue to bless Ghana and Africa.

There was no substance howsoever in this speech. This president needs a competent speech writer who is capable of writing speeches that address real and tangible issues that affect the lives of the citizens and chart a path of hope for the future for our children. THIS SPEECH IS A BIG JOKE! And frankly, it is disappointing and disgraceful!! President Mahama MUST learn to take the good people of Ghana seriously. He does not seem to do so.

Mr.Mahama, you are full of(BS). Do you think we Ghanaians are so stupid as you might think?. If you do, you've lost your fucking mind and it would thus show how shallow mindedness and self delusional you are.
The idea that you shamelessly had the audacity to ask Ghanaians in your New Year message to join you and partner with you to develop our beloved Ghana is lame and insincere.
We, Ghanaians do not see you as an honest, incorruptible President and as such, we cannot in clear conscience condone and connive with you to destroy our Ghana leaving nothing for the future generation.
