If infrastructures alone can reduce poverty in developing countries Nigeria would have been heaven on earth but go and see the level of abject poverty prevailing in that oil rich country. Since the oil boom in the 70s, subsequent Nigerian governments have been investing billions of dollars into infrastructural projects building mega-schools, mega-hospitals, Mega-universities, super-highways and a new modern city called Abuja yet these mega-projects have not reduced poverty in Ogbodo Niger. Infact, it is on record that Nigeria exports the highest number of beggars to the rest of Arica.
Nigeria has more quality universities than Ghana. When it comes to infrastructure Nigeria is second to none in West Africa yet the level of poverty and misery in that

When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Listen to yourself, you such an illiterate. You can't even spell and construct right sentences. What a TWERP like you. Your stupid Mahama is promising 3 million jobs when his government if he wins power is going to have more people laid off and in addition his policy of Dumsor is collapsing most industries.

Traditional Satanism is not simply an inversion, but a complete rejection of the images of a
0244908520particular culture, religion, or philosophy. From there a Satanist uses those images against the ethos itself, that was once his own conditioning. Persons who participate in traditional Satanic masses sometimes experience a king of 'sartori', a sudden enlightenment, to an increase in their own consciousness, and feeling stronger and satisfied because they had broken with the constraining opposites. In other words, at its highest level Satanism uncovers what the ethos of a particular community or society has covered up through images, dogma, words and ideas, returning the individual to the primal chaos out of which 'opposites' were created." ~ Magister Hagur, Temple of Atazoth Office

Donald Trump can no longer build a wall along the Mexican border, neither can he sack all immigrants, he cannot 'drain the lawn', he cannot appoint a special prosecutor to try Hillary Clinton, he cannot even sanction China for currency manipulation. So which of the major promises that he made to win the elections can he fulfill? He promised to change Washington but has already started appointed his officials from among the lobbyists and corrupt Washing officials that he campaigned against. Many fear all those who voted for Trump would be disappointed even before he sets foot in the White House. Easier said than done.

Hey!John Mahama if things are not easy, no body is forcing you to be president.You are not finding things easy because of one or two reasons.The main reason is that you ascended the presidency through the back door that was opened ajar for you by Afari Djan to stealthily sneak in .This presidency is a clean position but by claiming and ascending it through the back door turned out to be a CURSE, hence the chronic and incorrigible failure, cluelessness, confusion and an incurable corruption into which you and your brigade have found yourselves neck-deep in.The repercussions are the suffering and hardship in which we are plunged into now.The reason why we intend to change you on December 7.In any case, we are grateful to you for whatever balance of the loans taken on our behalf is left in the coffers.

A man went to a doctor to have his penis enlarged. Well, this particular procedure involved splicing a baby elephant's trunk onto the man's penis. Overjoyed, the man went out with his best girl to a very fancy restaurant. After cocktails, the man's penis crept out of his pants, felt around the table, grabbed a hard roll and quickly disappeared under the tablecloth. The girl was startled and exclaimed, "What was that?".
Suddenly the penis came back, took another hard roll and just as quickly disappeared. The girl was silent for a moment, then finally said, "I don't believe I saw what I think I just saw... can you do that again?"
With a bit of an uncomfortable smile the man replied, "Honey, I'd like to, but I don't think my ass can take another hard roll!"
