While can't these wicked, hypocrites and stupid Ghanaians shut up their dirty 'all die be die' mouths and let Nigeria fight all these evil being perpetrated against it by some of our neighbors in West Africa, including Cameroun, Chad, Niger and Ghana, so as to wreck the buoyant economy of Nigeria out of ENVY. They all supports Boko Haram, one way or the other. Some Ghanaians Muslims do sneaked into Nigeria to commit some of these atrocities in support of their fellow heartless Hausa Fulani Boko Haram Muslims in Northern Nigeria. That is a fact.

Some of those evil people supports Boko Haram in Nigeria are from Nima and other Moslems from Ghana. I have seen some of the gory pictures of Nigerian Christians being hacked to death by Boko Haram, on 'wassaps' being spread by some of the evil Islamic Nima Boys, from Ghana. That is fact. It is an open secret amongst Ghanians Moslems anyway.

(I wonder how did these Nima Boys got hold of those gory pictures of Christians being massacred in Northern Nigeria, if they are not part of the atrocities)? The truth will come out one day by the Grace of God. All these Islamic evil atrocities by fellow Africans Muslems and their equally evil Arab sponsors against Nigeria shall be exposed one day IJN.

If Ghanaians thinks that they are immuned from the terror and evil of Islamic religion, they are living in a fool paradise. Your evil days are just being postponed for another day of calamity in Ghana. Mark my word. As long as you have Muslims in your midst, then your peaceful days are numbered. Mark my words. There is nothing like peaceful Muslims, trust me. The only peaceful Muslims are DEAD MUSLIMS, period.

Deluded Ghanaians should take a clue from the Central African Republic, where the Muslims minority in the that tiny African country took arms against their fellow Christian majority, and the rest is history. If Ghanaians thinks that the evil Islamic Boko Haram is only Nigeria problems, then wait and see when the chicken of the evil Islamic terrorism comes home to roost. I do hope that the name: Malam Manfo Asiedu, a Ghanaian terrorist serving jail term here in London ring a bell?

Trust me, this is ABSOLUTE TRUTH, and most of Ghanaians Moslems are privy to these facts. They, Ghanaian Moslems might be pretending to be peaceful in Ghana, but they are like 'dormant volcano' waiting to erupt one day. It is a matter of time.

When the gory and HORRIBLE PICTURE OF A CHRISTIAN YOUTH, (whose head was split into two and his brain gushed out and blood all over the place) was forwarded into my 'wassaps' by a Ghanaian Moslem friend, I had to DELETE it immediately. I cannot afford to watch the horrible image for the second time, nor forward it to anyone else for that matter. It was a VERY HORRIBLE IMAGE TO BEHOLD.

These blood thirsty Moslems terrorists are really VAMPIRES in human flesh. Human lives means nothing to them. NEMESIS shall caught up with them one day.

But what really surprises me was, how some Moslems found such a horrible pictures amusing, and let alone sharing it amongst themselves, does not ceased to amaze me. When I asked the person that sent the gory picture to me why he sent such a horrible picture to my wassaps. He said, some of his fellow Muslims friends from Nima, in Accra, Ghana, sent it to him.

I therefore, warned him NEVER to send such a horrible thing to me again. I said, if he and his fellow Moslems found such a horrible and barbaric things amusing to them, he should count me out. (I have his info, and he should be able to name those Nima Boys) he called his friends who are part of secret terrorist groups in West Africa.

Your Excellency,President Mahama, with all due respect, it's high time you tell Ghanaians what exactly you and your government have done and are doing to fight corruption. After nearly three years in office, if your are still talking about "we will" instead of we are, then, when you will even begin to fight corruption?

No doubt, not a single official has been dismissed, sanctioned or successfully prosecuted for corruption despite numerous evidence of corruption high places such as GYEEDA, SADA, SUBA, etc.

Corruption is the result of weak institutions, indiscpline and your government's inability or unwillingness to enforce the laws, rules and regulations as well as the unwillingness of the citizens to comply with the laws, rules and regulations. It is not because there are opportunities for corruption. These opportunities exist in every country and society but the difference is that in other countries and societies, institutions are strong, there is discipline, the laws, rules and regulations are enforced and the citizens comply with the laws, rules and regulations. There is too much lawlessness in Ghana and that breeds corruption.

President Mahama, You keep saying you will fight corruption. But there are several cases of corruption lurking around. Let take the case of the Ghana International Airways Refunds as an example. Passengers paid money to a national airline (Ghana International Airways) NDC govt suspended its operation about three years ago. Late Atta Mills & his NDC govt promised to refund passengers the money. Ministry of Finance allegedly published in the media that the refund had been given to the Ministry of Transport and the in turn said they had given the refunds to the Travel agent who are denying receiving them and so are the passengers. What is DIFFICULTY about the office of president initiating an investigation either by a Judge or BNI or a committee and REPORTING back to him Mahama. Mr President this is how people would in future take you SERIOUS you talk about fighting corruption. Please It is not too late to let BNI look into the passengers' plight.

The President speaking at the meeting of Council of State and on the issue of corruption he said "That is why we need to put in place procedures that will make it difficult for people to engage in corruption" How is responsible for putting the necessary procedures? I was expecting him to say that is why I have put in place........ It seems fighting corruption has become cheap talk.

When companies fraudulent receive payments for work they did not do, you don't just negotiate with them to pay back the money. You take the directors of these companies to court and jail them. That will deter potential fraudsters.

Malam Mahama, why not begin the fight from your Presidency, starting with you? You are on record as the most corrupt President in Ogyakrom history. After your Presidency, then your Party, especially your fellow vagabonds like that mosquito man. Please, don't forget that charity begins at home.

So now the president is considering how best to fight corruption.This is after he has been Vice president for 8 years and president for nearly 2 years.
How credible is he?
If he wants us to take him seriously he must start with members of his own party( Woyome scandal), his younger brother and he must publish GYeeda report as well as explain to Ghanaians how state institutions have become so corrupt hardly anything works any more under his administration.

I advocated for the abolition of the council of state.

If it has been retained it must make itself relevant to our country and governance by offering sound and timely advice to our President.

I OSUMAN MOHAMMED IS REALLY VERY HAPPY TO HEAR WHAT HAS BEEN SAID BY THE PRESIDENT AND DURING HIS MEETING WITH THE COUNCIL OF STATE MEMBERS. IT IS A GOOD DIRECTION TO TAKE . ALL OVER THE COUNTRY CORRUPTION IS EVERY WHERE AND IN EVERY DEPARTMENT . I SUGGEST THAT GHANA HAS TO START TO TACKLE IT FROM THE SOURCESSES OF REVENUE TO THE STATE SUCH AS CEPS WHICH IS THE HIGHEST AREA THAT BRINGS REVENUE TO THE COUNTRY . WITH THIS DEPARTMENT CHANGES SHOULD BE MADE TO ALL THE DIRECTORS AT THE VARIOUS POSTS ESPECIALLY AT THE HARBOURS AND ALL THE POINTS OF ENTRY TO THE COUNTRY WHERE GOODS AND SERVICES PASS. I AM SURE ALL GHANAIANS ARE AWARE THAT BECOMING A CUSTOM PERSONEL MEANS YOU ARE ALREADY RICH. THE REVENUE THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE PAID INTO THE GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTS RATHER GOES TO THE INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNT. WHY SO.
SORRY TO MENTION THIS IF IT IS TRUE THAT THE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN GIVEN A PARTICULAR AMOUNT TO PAY AT THE END OF EVERY YEAR. IF IT IS TRUE THAT IS VERY WRONG. THERE SHOULD BE NO SUCH THING. THE CUSTOM OFFICERS ALL TAKE SALARIES YET WHAT THE MAKE FROM THE BACK IS 100 TIMES OR MORE THEIR SALARIES. WHY SO. TACKLE IT FAST AND STOP THEM MAKING MONEY BY CHARGING BUSINESS PEOPLE SO MUCH FOR THEIR OWN BENEFIT INSITED OF THE STATE.
ANOTHER POINT IS THAT IN EVERY COUNTRY THE CITIZENS KNOW FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF CEPS THE TAXES FOR ALL GOODS AND ITEMS BROUGHT INTO THOSE COUNTRY BUT IN THE CASE OF GHANA THOSE TAXES ARE THERE BUT NOT FOLLOWED WHY. THE QUESTION SHOULD BE ANSWER. DIFFERENT CUSTOM OFFICERS CHARGE DIFFERENT PRICES FOR THE SAME KIND OF GOODS . WHY PLEASE STOP ALL THESE.
THE IRS IS ANOTHER AREA TO BE TAKEN NOTICE OF . MORE REVENUE THERE GOES TO JUST SOME OFFICERS THERE BY BRING CORRUPTION. I DONT NEED TO MENTION ALL THESE FOR YOU THE OFFICERS IN THE GOVERNMENT KNOW ALL . SO STAND UP AND CORRECT THEM THEN GHANA WILL BE OK
I WISH I HAD BEEN GIVEN THE CHANCE TO MEET THOSE CONCERN TO PUT MY POINTS ACROSS FOR THEM TO USE THEM IN ADDITION TO THOSE THEY KNOW BUT REFUSE TO ACT TO SAVE GHANA FROM CORRUPTION
FIGHT HARD TO SAVE MOTHER GHANA. MR. PRESIDENT ALL THE BLAME GOES TO YOU. SO STAND UP AND SAVE GHANA AND YOUR NAME. THANKS

Find somewhere and sit down Mahama,your government is the most corrupt in modern Ghanaian history so start with your appointees. You already know that they get everything free; petrol, cars water, electricity, even beer etc, whatever is left in the coffers is looted and shared. Everybody except your appointees is feeling the effect of a government whose only policy is to, tax everything outrageous rates eg 25% in some cases 400% of the value of the items, why Ghanaians endure such stupidity was a topic discussed by a few of my friends and it was not flattering. Our politicians must make a pledge that all appointees deserve no more than all the long suffering and hardworking Ghanaians who have been reduced to pathetic scam artists just to survive. I cry for The country the Great Kwame Nkrumah made into the shining star of Africa. Please God, send us another Kwame Nkrumah.

We’ll fight corruption on two fronts - Mahama
