THIS IS ESPECIALLY SO BECAUSE OF ALL THE NOISE AGAINST THE NDC GOVERNMENT TAGGING THEM INCOMPETENT, THIEVES, ETC. STEALING IS STEALING, AND THIS IS DEFINITELY STEALING. A BIG SHAME ON NANA ADDO. INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ON THE SUBSTANCE OF THE SPEECH, EVERYONE IS FOCUSING ON HIS PLAGIARISM. HE WILL BE FOREVER REMEMBERED AS THE PLAGIARISM PRESIDENT. SHAME ON HIM!

A couldn't help but continue to laugh. I asked Him tell me the answer. The man said for instance when teachers are called to negotiate for wages and salaries or other thing concerning their welfare. You see them reading the document for grammatical errors, missing full stops and commas but the time they get to main agenda time would have been far spent and end getting a bad deal. why Ghanaians behaving like the teachers. Did Nana Addo promise us a speech or did we elect Him to for speeches. . It focus on what Nana promise and stop this 1920 way of doings. I did not vote Nana Addo because of speech.

Leave Nana alone. Who on earth does not use some one's word, phrase, language in expressing him/herself. Who first used the word 'Dad' or mummy' to address relations? But you use same words too. Are you not plagiarist?
SO if ordinary men and women plagiarise, ur president who is addressed as His Excellency should also join de band wagon? Do u know why he,s addressed as His Excellency? COME OON!
This is very sad ???? that a president with different vision and promises can only quote people's ideas and speeches? Hmmmm is easier said than done ooo!! This just the beginning oooo!!!!
When you see a big head crashing nuts with his head dont think it is easy.NPP have u seen?
Why didn't Nana just his own speech?
So he enjoyed copy copy. Lol. Copyright?
Next time just write your own simple. Let the world know you are capable of writing too. Do not copy the white man speech. Let the world know the ...

NANA AND NPP MUST APOLOGIZE PROFUSELY TO GHANAIANS FOR BRINGING SUCH AN EMBARRAZEMENT TO THE NATION. THIS BEGINNIG TELLS IT ALL HOW THIS COUNTRY IS GOING TO BE RULED IN THE NEXT 4 YEARS, GOD HAVE MERCY!!!
This time is incapable. Hahahahahaha
No matter the level of an Akan, they struggle with the Queen's language, Twi. So, the best Nana could have done is to speak Twi and not copy someone's speech as promise to Ghanaians, VERY SHAMEFUL indeed!!
Apart from being ugly, nana addo is not intelligent enough to draft a common inaugural speech but goes about copying other people speech.
NANA set the bar too high for himself and now he's going to fall on his own sword. He who lives by the sword will die by the sword.
A GROUP OF PROPAGANDISTS AND PLAGIARISTS. INDEED, BABIES WITH SHARP BRAIN. I LAUGH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Note that there is no new speech on this earth. Quoting speech is not as same as quoting someone's work. We all quote Bible most times and we do not reference the Bible in all times. In speech Dr. Kwame Nkrumah used a lot of ...

Don't be foolish. Of course you can quote anyone, but doing so without attribution is plagiarism which Akuffo-Addo is guilty of. If you don't see anything wrong with what Akuffo-Addo did, then you must be a dishonest person.
Plagiarism is not a crime and English is not two but one. There's no special English reserved for heads of state. What did people say when Trump 's wife plagiarized Michelle Obama's speech? 0. Blame the one who wrote the spee ...

This simply means the Akufo Addo has no vision. Above all the people he surrounds himself with are crass and incompetent.
The one who report must done enough search on plagiarism. Nana Addo had not done anything wrong, it just polite for him to acknowledge the person who use the phrase the very first time in the 1919 also,and not those who also ...

Is that what Al Jazeera sent its reporter to look for? In fact, its correspondent, Nicholas Haque was sent here during the elections to look for 'bad news' which he never got since there was none. Al Jazeera, therefore, decid ...
