Sam Jonah masterminded the sale of AgnloGold Ashanti to a British firm.the result of this is that Ghana now owns only 1.72% of the goldmine. For his reward (kick-back) the Queen of England knighted him and he is now Sir Sam Jonah. This is corruption of gargantuan proportions. And this same guy is speaking against corruption? Hypocrisy in Ghana has reached its highest.

Why is it that all the big liars and deceiver shave all filtered into NPP?

Kansteiner is a director of the precious metal firm Titanium Resources Group, a company deeply tied to Sierra Rutile Limited, a firm pivotal to the bloodshed in Sierra Leone. [76] Sierra Rutile Ltd. director Sir Sam Jonah reportedly helped finance Rwandan RCD rebel groups in DRC while he was a CEO of Ashanti Goldfields; Jonah is also a director for Moto Gold.[77] Sierra Rutile is owned by Max and Jean-Raymond Boulle and Robert Friedland, "Friends of Bill" Clinton who are linked to clandestine networks of offshore holdings and front companies involved in weapons trafficking, money laundering and human rights atrocities from Burma to the Congos to Mongolia.[78]

Take the militia FNI: but for the victims and their suffering, it makes no difference what the acronym stands for, it’s all one big sadistic joke of language and power. The most significant fact to remember about this "F" "N" "I" is that they served as the private proxy army for the gold mining operations of Metalor, a Swedish firm, and AngloGold Ashanti, headquartered in South Africa and partnered with Barrick Gold.[4] Secondly, they were agents for Ugandan power brokers.
Anglo-Gold Ashanti directors include Sir Sam Jonah, who is also a director of shady mining-cum-military companies operating in Sierra Leone and connected to Tony Buckingham and other white-collar mercenaries. Buckingham affiliated companies—e.g. Heritage Oil and Gas, Branch Energy, Saracen Uganda—collaborate with the Museveni regime. Saracen’s top shareholder is General Salim Saleh, half-brother of Yoweri Museveni, and Congo’s nemesis, a Ugandan agent cited by the United Nations for war and plunder in Congo.
AngloGold Ashanti is the Anglo American mining conglomerate of the Oppenheimers and De Beers mining cartels of Britain and South Africa, interests deeply aligned with Belgian American intelligence insider Maurice Tempelsman—the godfather of covert operations in Africa. Tempelsman’s diamond interests in Congo were, at least partially, displaced by the Israeli cartels of Dan Gertler and Benny Steinmetz.[5] It is a no-brainer that the Tempelsman gang backs Rwanda’s occupation of eastern Congo.

See who is talking about corruption? Sam Jonah sold Ghana to obtain "Sir". What about the collapse of Ghana Airways? AGC now AGA was doing well until Rawlings thinking as a Ghanaian will do better. But that turned out to be a hoax. Corrupt and wicked self seeking greedy person. God has started punishing him. God is not asleep. People of Obuasi and Adansi will never forgive him. No one listens to Sam Esson Jonah, the greedy man.

Ghanaians must be careful because NPP has never cared about the common man. My best advice is: Wherever Sam Jonah is, avoid that party.

Some Ghanaians are simply jealous of Sir Sam Jonah.Those of us who became associated at a point in time know how hard he worked to lift AGC to become a major player in gold production internationally. This talk about him being knighted by the queen because he did something wrong in steering the affairs of AGC is just wicked and malicious. All those making such claims should produce evidence if they have any.
One thing I want to know is, what about all the high profile positions he has occupied and is still occupying and will occupy until he himself decides to stop taking up such appointments. From IFC, advisor to presidents of other nations, major banks, consultancy, company boards etc. Were and are all those big time positions given to him because he has been dodgey in his business and professional activities. Let us give credit to Ghanaians who are high achievers to encourage others.

The man is a common thief! He got to all those positions because he had influence THEN. but certainly not now. Do you know the story of how he betrayed Tiny Rowlands, his other benefactors and even his friends whose possessions he coveted. Go and ask rawlings and he will tell you about Greedy and unprincipled Sam Jonah. He will one day get his just desserts.....if not already

Francis B, please answer one question. Did Mr Jonah serve Ghana's economic purposes by supervising the transfer of AGC to Anglo Gold? This is the crux of the matter and not whether the man is hardworking or not.

You Sam Jonah and others of the so called world of education with this and that degrees help to create problems for the nation more and more because despite all the degrees you have obtained yet you never understand till today that the nation needs more authentic studies in the areas of technical, engineering, sciences for our nation to be able to become one that produces.

Why are your minds not ready to learn in order to help solve the real problems of our nation. Are you seeing what China, India and few other nations are doing with developments. They took the change in technical studies. How many technical universities do we have in Ghana? Shame unto you all with your degrees for nothing.

You have taken education in Ghana like your personal properties hence you terribly fail to follow ideas which can help the nation to development, and the ideas are simply encourage people/students to develop interest in the areas of technological studies.

You guys are called degrees holders for nothing, because you continue refusing to understand the real problem of our nation in the area of education. Ghana needs programmes that cover the said areas I had mentioned million times; TECHNICAL. One can simply see this even in Germany.

Advice government to give special incentives to students who take sec/tec studies, because as said earlier this is the area of development in all the nations that had done well with development.

And if he knows there's such wanton corruption in the country, why doesn't he direct his call to the most corrupt people first. Why is he beating around the bush, telling innocent kids who have no hope of even getting a job, let alone practicing the corruption. I graduated from college at the height of Kutu Acheampong's Kalabule. Here was what our dean told us at a departmental dinner. "If you have to steal, steal like a graduate". If Mahama can build a 5-star hotel, and if the ruling NDC can build a $20 million office, without caaounting to anybody and without the EC even calling for the party's financial statement as required by law, why should the graduate chew grass.

I think the quality of education is inferior. Look at the case of K Agyapong and Afia, majority of people think Afia was wrong, but the truth is that Afia is brave to be able to confront an evil man in society. Do you think K Agyapong would still be in parliament had this happened in a civilized country like US, Canada, UK, Germany, France etc? He would have lost his job and his political career would have ended, but in Ghana so called educated people do not see anything wrong.
