WE'VE HEARD SUCH STUFF MORE THAN A MILLION TIMES SINCE NKRUMAH'S GHANA "INDEPENDENCE" FROM COLONIAL RULE.

WHAT A COUNTRY, AND ITS SUCCESSIVE LEADERSHIP!

GHANA'S IMPORT DUTIES, PARTICULARLY ON VEHICLES, ARE SIMPLY EXPLOITATIVELY AND ASTRONOMICALLY HIGH.

NO WONDER GHANA'S DIASPORANS ARE NO LONGER IMPORTING CARS.

THOSE WHO STILL IMPORT CARS USE TOGO'S FREE PORT OR UNAPPROVED ROUTES TO GHANA, THEN........HM! YOUR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE.

GHANA WILL CONTINUE TO BE UNDERCUT BY NEIGHBOURING COUNTRIES LIKE TOGO IF WE CONTINUE TO MAKE SUCH BAD POLICY DECISIONS AND FOOLISHLY EXPECT GOOD PRODUCTIVE RESULTS.

This progressive Minister is making a serious mistake here. What more does he need to know before directing that the scanners should be the primary and main tool of inspecting containers? He could then eliminate the corrupt 4 and 5 visual inspections on all containers unless required by the scanners.

Ben Ephson Starr Jnr.,

The alleged tribal comments recently made by former flagbearer aspirant of the main opposition New Patriotic Party has the potential of costing the party the 2016 elections, Pollster Ben Ephson has told Starr Today’s Bernard Nasara Saibu

The Managing Editor of the Daily Dispatch said the governing party could take advantage of the comments for political capital ahead of the 2016 elections just as the party did ahead of the 2012 elections regarding a similar tribalistic comment made by NPP flagbearer Nana Akufo-Addo at the time.

Meanwhile the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) has described as “tribal bigotry” and “primitive”, Mr Osafo Marfo “incendiary and ethnically divisive” remarks to the effect that non-Akans whose home regions are bereft of natural resources are rather those at the helm of the country’s affairs.

“We in the National Democratic Congress unreservedly condemn this extreme form of tribal bigotry exhibited by Mr Osafo Marfo.

“We are utterly dismayed that in spite of his years of education, exposure and experience, Mr Osafo Marfo will hold such primitive views about national leadership, and proceed to make comments that have the potential to tear apart the very fabric that bind us together as one people with a common destiny,” Fred Agbenyo, a Deputy Communications Officer of the party said at a press conference Wednesday February 18, 2015.

A secret audio tape circulating on both social and traditional media captures a male voice resembling that of the former finance Minister bemoaning that even though about 90 percent of Ghana’s natural resources are concentrated in mainly Akan-speaking regions of the country, it is people who come from regions without resources that are governing the country.

The tape was apparently captured at a meeting between the former Finance Minister and the NPP’s Council of Elders in the Eastern region.

The voice, which mostly spoke in the local Twi language, but punctuated the delivery with some English, is heard bemoaning why Akan-speaking people, whose regions are rich with natural resources, are not the ones at the helm of managing those resources.

“…You have all the resources, but you have no say in the management of your resources and that is what is happening. Your development depends on the one who has no resources,” the voice said.

“You can’t say this openly,” he cautioned the Council members, but added that they are at liberty to talk about it among Asantes.

“We should protect ourselves, we should protect our income. No one who is the source of income, the source of revenue, the source of resources allows another person without those resources the chance [to rule over them].

“It’s never done anywhere in the world. In the world over, it is the group with the most resources that rules and not the other way around,” the voice said.

In the estimation of the voice, “86.5 percent of resources in Ghana come from five regions: Brong Ahafo, Ashanti, Eastern, Western and Central. This is where 86 percent of the resources of Ghana come from… And the oil was also discovered in the West. It will change the formula to about 90 percent. We cannot ignore these five regions. We should not,” the voice added.

When Starr News contacted Mr Osafo Marfo via text messages to get him to speak about the tape and its content, he replied that he was in a meeting and could not speak.

What Epson is saying might be possible that is because the other tribes are the bigots not the Akans.

Assume Nana Akuffo go to the Akan areas and tell them vote for me because I am Akan or one of you and it is time for Akan to be President .The tribes in the North and Ewes will go bonkers but that is exactly what Mahama said in 2012 and still Akans voted for him to become President. Why then is it wrong for Osafo Marfo to state what is true and obvious about the natural resources being from Akan areas?

What I don't agree with if he said that is the restatement the leader of Ghanas should come from the area that produce the bulk of resources in Ghana.

This tape is fabricated by Ndc Asante haters because Osafo Marfo who is not Asante would not have stated that his beliefs should be discussed in the midst of Asantes and nobody else. Does it mean Osafo Marfo doesn't trust his own Akyem clan? An Asante hater doctored this tape thinking Osafo Marfo is an Asante and that is where the bigot Ndc fool who fabricated this tape messed up.

Keepin story in the headlines helps NPP

Is this Ewe Kpessa Whyte guy really serious? Go ahead and tell your Boss, the President first. He set this bigotry wheels rolling when he campaigned by being a bigot.

Are we to assume NDC Ewes and Northerners can use their tribes for campaigning but Akans cannot?

Do you remember Mills "Adze wo fie a oye" tribal campaign?

What about President Mahama telling Northerners he should be voted for because he is from the North and it is the turn for a Northerner to be President?

This Ndc nonsense against Akans should stop now.

Michael Kpessah Whyte Dr

The acting National Director of the National Service Scheme (NSS) Dr. Michael Whyte Kpessa has accused the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) of “preaching ethnic bigotry”.

The comment comes on the back of a secret audio tape circulating on both social and traditional media which captures a male voice resembling that of former finance Minister Yaw Osafo Marfo bemoaning that even though about 90 percent of Ghana’s natural resources are concentrated in mainly Akan-speaking regions of the country, it is people who come from regions without resources that are governing the country.

The tape was apparently captured at a meeting between the former Finance Minister and the NPP’s Council of Elders in the Eastern region.

This is where 86 percent of the resources of Ghana come from… And the oil was also discovered in the West. It will change the formula to about 90 percent. We cannot ignore these five regions. We should not,” the voice added.

In apparent reaction to the comments, the former Presidential staffer posted the following on his twitter handle: “#NPPGhana. The seriousness of a political party comes NOT from preaching ethnic bigotry but from offering innovative alternative policies”.

Yaw Osafo Maafo Greyed

Former Finance Minister Yaw Osafo Marfo has said although he recalls speaking at a forum in the Eastern region not too long ago on a wide range of issues, he doubts a secret tape circulating on which he is allegedly heard spewing tribal venom is genuine.

The former flagbearer-aspirant of the main opposition New Patriotic Party has, therefore requested for a copy of the tape for thorough listening before making any comments about it, Joy News reported Thursday.

A secret audio tape circulating on both social and traditional media captures a male voice resembling that of the former finance Minister bemoaning that even though about 90 percent of Ghana’s natural resources are concentrated in mainly Akan-speaking regions of the country, it is people who come from regions without resources that are governing the country.

Who told Fantes in Central region that "Adze wo fie a oye" so Fantes should vote for him, Ndc hypocrites? It was the so called "Asomdwehene" President Mills who also told some people that there is something called Ashanti project that needs to be contained?

Who went to the Northern region and said it is the turn of a Northerner to become a President and as a Northerner and one of them, he should be voted for not because he is the best man for the job but him being a Gonja and from the North entitles him to the Presidency? President Mahamah is the one who said this. It is this same President Mahamah that said Kumasi people even if he paves the roads there with gold will not appreciate him. I guess Ndc will agree with any bigoted nonsense directed to Akans especially Asantes as fair but woe to anyone bold enough to state the obvious as the said Osafo Marfo tape is alleged to have stated and the Ndc attacking dogs like Omane Boamah and Kpessah Whyte will comminate their political and tribal bigotry.

Are we to assume NDC, Ewes and Northerners can use their tribes for political campaigns but Akans cannot? Who appointed these Ndc people as tribal Police to issue tribal tickets?

The alleged Mr Osafo Marfo tape that entreats Akans to be aware of their natural resources being used by people who come from areas without or with little natural resources is creating babelism amongst the Ndc officials and their supporters.

From the alleged tape which is mostly recorded in Twi with intercepts of English here and there, Mr Osafo Marfo supposedly said Akan-speaking people, whose regions are rich with natural resources, are not the ones at the helm of managing those resources.You have all the resources, but you have no say in the management of your resources and that is what is happening. Your development depends on the one who has no resources.

I personally do not agree with the idea that people from those regions with natural resources should be the only people that can be Presidents but it is true that 86.5 percent of resources in Ghana come from five regions: Brong Ahafo, Ashanti, Eastern, Western and Central. This is where 86 percent of the resources of Ghana come from… And the oil was also discovered in the West. It will change the formula to about 90 percent. We cannot ignore these five regions.

According to the acting National Director of the National Service Scheme (NSS) Dr. Michael Whyte Kpessa the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) is “preaching ethnic bigotry”.

This is the kind of language another Ewe, Dr Agama stated in the 1970 that got a reply from Mr Victor Owusu about Ewes being inward looking. It seems to me these Northern tribes and Ewes have a carte blanche card to accuse Akans of being bigots whenever Akans state the obvious facts whilst these two groups can embark with their bigotry with impunity. Not to be outdone when a microphone is available, Omane Boamah too has this to say;

"Communications Minister Dr Edward Omane Boamah has urged former Finance Minister, Yaw Osafo Marfo to immediately apologise for the tribal comments that he is alleged to have made in order to regain his reputation in Ghanaian politics."

Let me give Omane Boamah and Kpessah Whyte a good advice. If they have any good advice about how not to be a bigot, they should first walk from their offices not too far from that of the President of Ghana called President Mahamah to stop inciting tribal hatred before they can advise Mr Osafo Marfo whose statement is a factual truth.I know Omane Boamah and Kpessa Whytes are thaumaturges who can change things so they should walk to President Mahamah's office and advise him to learn how to build a bridge of unity to all tribal towns in Ghana instead of building a bridge of disunity by stopping his "I AM ONE OF YOU NORTHERNERS" political slogans for the Northern votes.

Did the tribal comments by Presidents Mills and Mahamah destroy their political career?

Ndc is being hypocritical. Who told Fantes to vote for him because "Adze wo fie a oye"? PRESIDENT MILLS

Who told Northerners it was their turn to vote for one of their own to be President? President Mahama told Northerners to vote for him he is a Northerner and these moronic Ndc people did not see anything wrong with it.

Am I to assume Ndc has a carte blanche card to practice tribal politics but Npp has no right to respond in kind?

If Osafo Marfo said only people from the natural resource producing regions can be President, I don't I agree with him other than that, everything he said is true.

Why should we use more than 40 percent of all infrastructure development money in Accra alone whilst all the other regions are neglected? Leave Osafo Marfo alone, it is time Akan regions demand what is theirs, no more backing down.

What irks me to the high heavens is the posturing of the 'Eminent' Ghanaian pollster, Ben Epson's take on this issue. According to Mr Epson, the governing party could take advantage of the comments for political capital ahead of the 2016 elections just as the party did ahead of the 2012 elections regarding a similar tribalistic comment made by NPP flagbearer Nana Akufo-Addo at the time.

What this tells me is that, it is the other tribes in Ghana who are bigots and not Akans. Now Ben Epson has accepted Ndc used tribal division to win the 2012 elections. Was it not the same election circle that President Mahamah told the Northern tribes to vote for him because he is a Gonja? Is Epson telling me it is alright for Ndc and Northerner Mahama to campaign by using their tribe as a buffer but an Akan and Npp should not? Despite what Mahama said, he won in the Akan regions, Brong-Ahafo, Central and Western regions without the Akans in those regions using his bigotry statement against him so why shouldn't the so called tribal puritans in NDC from the three Northern regions and Volta region can differentiate a personal statement supposedly made by Mr Osafo Marfo from an Npp political position?

I personally believe this tape was doctored by an Ndc scribe who in his haste to crucify Mr Osafo Marfo made a glaring one big mistake.

This tape is alleged to have said Mr Osafo Marfo, who is an Akyem by birth stated this;

“You can’t say this openly,” he cautioned the Council members, but added that they are at liberty to talk about it among Asantes."

Why should Mr Osafo Marfo tell these delegates from Eastern Region they are at liberty to talk about this amongst Asantes but no one else? Does it mean Mr Osafo Marfo doesn't even trusthis own Akyem tribe?

Secondly, why will Mr Marfo say this to people from Eastern region who are mostly not Asantes not to discuss this with their own people because they can't trust them but he Osafo Marfo can trust these Elders from Eastern region who I think were some Krobos, Adas and other tribes?

The Ndc propaganda political fabricator who doctored this tape assumed Osafo Marfo is an Asante and as a political party that hates Asantes, this statement was inserted to contue the anti Asante political project President Mills stated.
