    This essay is very confusing? What is the subject matter, Kwame? For someone who teaches composition, it is sad that you always leave your train of thought behind!

  • James Opuni 9 years ago

    Akadu Kwasiaman. You and Okoampah aren't different in any way when it comes to "train of thought".

    For your information, Okoampah doesn't teach "composition". He teaches some kind of journalism and creative writing to juve ...

    How nice. I critique Okoampa whenever I think he deserves, and praise him whenever his writings cut muster! Then again, idiotic tribalists like you hate Akans, but are quick to steal their names! Sadly, are names have no feat ...

    Do you really claim to be what you are? You write horribly, even in a short comment like this one. How can you write a long prose without atrocious mistakes to torture your reader?

    Look at this one:

    "Sadly, are names ha ...

    As usual always fighting over some people language hehehe dark Afrikans are funny creatures.

  • James Opuni 9 years ago

    Language and communication through language separate human beings from animals of the lower and lowest kingdoms. If you want to know why issues of language are regarded as "touchy", do so and you should appreciate it when peo ...

    You see some of us are great scholars who are well-published!

    All shall pass, this one too!

  • Ni -Adama, Osu-RE 9 years ago

    Interesting scenes/scenario to make genuine comments on but being too garrulous at times totally obliterates the theme or subject matter. These are without a doubt very important issues requiring discussion if we're to prev ...

    Holly crap!For a college professor with a PhD in English you sure write poorly. If one of your students submitted this incoherent pointless essay to you on the question of whether Ghana is or is not a "banana republic' what g ...

    The title of your garbage alone puts me off: "Ghana Is A Bananan Republic, KB!"

    So, you are qualifying "banana" (common noun) into an adjective ("bananan")?

  • Obiba Kwame 9 years ago

    And he is a college professor with a PhD in English!

  • Akadu Mensema 9 years ago

    You attacked me for critiquing Okoampa, but here you are attacking him. What do you want?

  • James Opuni 9 years ago

    You behave just like him in cyberspace, but he writes better than you can ever bring yourself to do.

    You cannot put your thoughts together in a readable prose as Okoampah does.

    Even in the garbled writing you call poem ...

    I am in full agreement with you sir.
    Mensema is the worst writer here. He doesn't even know what a poem is.

  • Akadu Mensema 9 years ago

    You this Tilapia lawyer can't let go off my past critique of your errant stories of Ewe intellectual superiority. You have praised me before as one of the best writers on Ghanaweb so why have you changed your mind? Looking fo ...

  • NAKED 9 years ago

    Having PHD doesn't mean you can't make errors, it could be typo error so don't take it as personal please. Thanks for your understanding.

  • mother'schild 9 years ago

    Sir, much as I like reading your articles to appreciate the various views about Ghana, what fascinated me to comment is the fact people like Deku were the ones in charge of security who were RECOMMENDING to Nkrumah to detain ...

    Okoampa isn"t an agent of academic rationalisation. He writes as if his ideas has been inspected for gross stupidity before it leaves his Akasanoma lips.Who pioneered the global Black Consciousness Movement on the African Con ...
