Ghanaian Coalition Abroad Seeks $100bn for Ghana

GHANAIAN COALITION ASKS WORLD INSTITUTIONS FOR $ 100 BILLION FUNDS AND PRIVATE LOANS TO CREATE JOBS AND PROMOTE A PERMANENT MULTI PARTY DEMOCRATIC SYSTEM IN GHANA.



Moving a small step in their efforts yet, a gigantic leap forward to contribute to Ghana's economic development and create a permanent Multi Party Democratic system in the Country, the Executives of the Ghanaians Abroad Coalition have submitted proposals to World institutions requesting for $100 billion or more funds and private loans to create private jobs, feed the poor and provide educational seminars on democracy, especially the promotion of a permanent Multi Party Democratic system in Ghana; the promotion of "Grass Roots" Democracy such as Ballox Measures, Petitions and Propositions; provide seminars on Ethnic Unity and Cultural Understanding and furthermore, to finance Candidates from [all] the Political Parties in Ghana who pledge to commit themselves to Multi Party Democracy, the Rule of Law and Freedom, etc.

" We want to see Ghana's "Economic Renaissance" and create a permanent Multi -Party system with Freedom and Liberty guaranteed to everybody in Ghana " said a statement released by the Founder and interim President of the Ghanaians Abroad Coalition, Kwame Appiah Boateng.

" When we finally realize that we need a permanent Multi Party Democratic system, and that Freedom is sacred, Ghana, a Country blessed with humanitarian people shall be the Paradise of Africa", said the former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate.

" We need to build an African version of America's "Statute of Liberty" in Ghana when Democracy and Freedom become permanently entrenched in the Country. As we move towards a permanent Multi-Party Democratic system in Ghana, we must never forget that the whole Continent of Africa must enjoy permanent Democracy and Freedom. " said the interim President of the Ghanaians Abroad Coalition.

" Ghana's current Multi Party Democratic system and prevailing winds of Freedom are meaningless unless the entire beautiful people of Africa enjoy the same", he said. " Africa must still unite and create a permanent Democratic System and uphold the noble principles of Freedom and Human Rights" Boateng added.

Boateng says his organization will dedicate their small contribution towards achieving Multi Party Democracy and Ethnic Unity in Ghana to the blessed memories of both Dr. J.B. Danquah, and Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
