All die be die is as good as violence begat violence and we come from revolution and have black belt kwasea,next time watch your back before you open your mouth. I don't understand why only idiots follow ndc,the only sensible person in that party was P V Obeng who is no more the rest from head to toe are all fools. How come in 2005 some of your people were jailed for causing financial lose to the state and you come again to power to steal for more to be jailed and there will be a time all ndc members would have tasted jail term which will prohibit them to contest any election and instead of thinking of how to stop stealing in government this idiot is here saying all die be die. It is good and excellent advise to stand up for your country when especially unpatriotic people ascend to the presidency. Ndc mo de si ye be twa,meaning you bring it on you will meet equal measure. Enjoy your bitterness in opposition and talk and become talkatives and press conference conveyors,we are moving forward, we are restructuring Ghana to a higher height to be respected and honored in the eyes of the international community.

Kwesi Pratt - I thought you had recently supported President Mahama that Ghana's economy is in good shape. Also we are a member of ECOWAS and will take part in whatever decision is taken by the body. Your father John Mahama is our representative at those meetings. Gambia has only 1000 troops and it will take a short time to overpower them and remove Jammed.

John Mahama is our representative at those meetings to oust Jammeh. Ghana is ECOWAS member and will abide by the decisions of the organization. Has nothing to do with Akuffo Addo or our economy!!

Most Ghanaians are ignorant and gullible. If ECOWAS is to send troops over the Gambian elections dispute, then it is excepted that it should have done the same in 2012 and 2013 when NPP send the results of the 2012 elections to the Supreme Court. Or send ECOWAS police to Ghana to let NPP abide by the results of the December,2012 presidential and parliamentary results.

VERY VERY Right diplomatic approach is the best not Millitary . we should think beyond Jammeys action and know that the African regional already unstable . look st Ivory cost . we should not act hypocritically and insensitive to invite further repercussions with the Region. Jammeys attempt was diplomatic ,thus through the court of Gambia . will we make same mistake like did happened in Lybia which Prez Obama did regret of not taking the aftermath of Lybia into Heart. however, this Gambia, after all efforts to outstate Jammey ,do we know the state we going to put Gambia ?...
Ghana should rather focus on working on its internal issues rather spending to further recess our economy. Good point from Mr. Prat

Why is it not surprising that Kwasi Pratt will have such an opinion. But of course, he is just like jammeh, very selfish. Is Pratt unaware of all the diplomatic manoeuvres that have gone on since this issue came up? I will also have strongly opposed military intervention if jammeh is a rational person. We cannot loose fact of the repercussions of a military intervention on the citizens and the damage it will cause on the infrastructure of Gambia. But of the two evils, I wonder which one will benefit the Gambia people in particular and the ECOWAS in general; leaving jammeh to hang on to power and continue to brutalize dissenting Gambians and deprave the country of the necessary freedom and peace?. Or should ECOWAS bite the bullet and insist the right thing is done? Tell me Mr. Pratt. How will you feel if after four years President Akufo Addo loses the election and refuses to step down!? And am using Akufo Addo because between him and Mahama, Mr. Pratt is very objective when issues with the former comes up. Mr. Pratt, please give us a break. You are a damn hypocrite.
