Our history is full of question marks. When most nations, after independent put structures in place to advance progress, we are rather retrogressing. Our failure to adhere to strict rule of law is the main cause of our problems. No nation on this planet is developed without allowing the law of the land to take its toll.

Ghana is suffering today because of the U.P. of Dr. Busia/Danquah. Gen. A.A. Afrifa, Kotoka with their geerdy caculations have put Ghana in this situation. The C.I.A. of 1966 will hunt Ghana for a long time.

Nkrumah studied in the UK and USA but returned to Ghana as if he had never heard about democracy. He killed all political opponents in Nsawam Prison. He gave 10 million pounds each to Sekou Toure of Gunea and the Mali President as bribe for them to make him the President of Africa while Ghanaians lived in shanty towns, squalor and slums.
Nkrumah was such a murderous tyrant that his own CPP henchmen and cronies led by Tawiah Adamafio tried to finish him at Kulungugu. He poisoned the minds of children with satanic Young Pioneers and made Nkrumaism a religion for Ghanaians to follow

And yet these Ghanaian journalists, not even veteran GBC, can account for the single missing year after 57 years of independence, just as nobody can account for anything they do or receive in Ghana.

REPUBLIC is when we decided not to be under the the British Monarchy or to be ruled by anyone through inheritance - Period.
That one is clear, then what do we have in our contitution "Chieftancy shall be upheld" which is contrary to a republic.
The House of Chifs and all formal powers granted to the chiefs in Ghana should be taken away by the Republic not forgeting all the Misuse of unauthorised selling of the Lands in the REPUBLIC.

I weep for Ghanaoooooo, why because I can not stop thinking that if this so call founder has not deemed it necessary that the old gold coast was ready for self governance,Ghana will not be where it is today. Ghana may not have lost live in it struggle for independent, but it has caused it years of civilization. Let face facts what has the country achieved in 54 Years?, a country with no electricity, public transport, sanitation. We are not capable of managing a country. Black are just capable of self governance.
