US Military deal: Akufo-Addo disregarded Nkrumah


How on earth could a 73 years old man tell a 23 years old boy that his security will not be threatened in future? Is the 70 years old looking into the future and expecting to live it with the young man? This deal is awful and must be thrown overboard.
