Time to haul down ken ofori-attah, is far, far too long overdue. He MUST face the highest penalty justice, as duly deserved. This is no joke!

A monster, who turned legitimate Voting Centres, into Killing Fields. Like, Ayawaso West Wuogong! Again, as it was with the Techiman-8. All, which 4-ever, shall remain a significant Eternal Democratic Shame for Ghana.

Disturbances at Ayawaso Wuogon were initiated by your terrorist Azorka. All the disturbances at election centers are initiated by the NDC, and you don't expect the security agencies not to maintain law and order including the use of lethal force. What happened in Techiman and other election centers in 2024 when Dampare prevented the police officers from carrying weapons to the centers? He enabled NDC criminals to attack voting and collating centre's and put his own officers lives at risk because of his quest to keep his job

I fully fully 100 percent agree with you. Unfortunately you didn't state your name. I have said time and time again that Rawlings should tell Ghanaians why he killed Acheampong. A leader who gave Ghana 53 percent of our natural resources!!! A leader who built Dansoman, Nungua and Kwadaso estates and didn't keep one of the flats for himself? As at the time he was being executed by firing squad Acheampong had ONLY his monthly salary in his bank account. So what was his guilt?
I can state on authority that the world bank and IMF were behind. Sounds controversial but let's please think about it because he gave Ghana 53 percent of our natural resources. How many African leaders can do that and not be targeted??
When Rawlings took over, Ghana's percentage dropped to 10 percent! This clearly means that Rawlings was bribed. From there it came as low as 1.5 percent. Am told that Mahama has increased it to 3 percent. Wicked murderous leaders!!!

If we are to observe closely all current African countries that are doing well have current or former military leaders like Paul Kagame. Nobody has proven that general Acheampong was corrupt. His weakness was women.

@Smith..... Kalabule was a mark of excellence under the odious Acheampong regime. Those who keep praising Acheampong were the ones whose families benefited enormously from Kalabule. Operation Feed Yourself was just a slogan on posters pasted on our classroom walls . It fed no one. The roads to major cocoa and food producing areas were bad under his regime. I saw it and went through it with my own friggin eyes. A journey of 96 miles from Kumasi to the Western Region took 8 dreadful hours under his regime in "Wa ato inchni" ricketty bus. I will never,ever glorify Acheampong's regime. Never!

The fact gross mismanagement and endemic, pervasive, massive corruption were responsible for the economic woes of Ghana is well known to Ghanaians. Just that the politicians responsible for the mess never want to take responsibility for it neither do they even turn from their evil ways. They always want to blame other people or factors for their mess while wrongly taking credit for positives achieved by others.

If not because of COVID and Ukraine-Russia war, the economic cracks could have been mended. The government could not have sat down without fixing the cracks. It is as simple as that!

NDC bastard. Everybody in the World knows that COVID 19 affected all the economies in the World and third World countries including Ghana was hit the most because the economy doesn't rely on industrialization. It is only through industrialization where most goods used in the country are produced can the country be protected from external shocks

Prof, Covid-19 happened in 2019 prior to the 2021 assessment by our international creditors. So it was the negative effects of the Covid-19 on our economy that turned off our creditors. So come again. This report is only meant to influence our next elections. We have had such external influences on the politics of our country since the time of Kwame Nkrumah and the CPP.

OFORI ATTAH, GHANA'S FIRST CRIMINAL FINANCE MINISTER.

AKUFFO ADDO, GHANA'S FIRST FAMILY GOVERNMENT.

ASANTE BEDIATUO, GHANA'S FIRST HOMELESS PRESIDENTIAL SECRETARY BEFORE HIS APPOINTMENT.

BOATENG GENFI TOLD ME THAT HE HAD BEEN PUTTING UP ASANTE BEDIATUO IN HIS HOUSE IN EAST LEGON IN THE MONTHS LEADING UP TO HIS APPOINTMENT. AS A RESULT, AKUFFO ADDO REWARDED BOATENG GENFI AS THE HEAD OF EXIM BANK BOARD OF DIRECTORS. AND MOST OF AKUFFO ADDO'S BORROWING WAS CHANNELLED THROUGH THE GHANA EXIM BANK. COINCIDENCE? NO! RATHER CALCULATING.

That incompetent blockhead useless thievery party must not be allowed anywhere near governance again. They are thieves with no manners and dignity who ruled us with their foolishness and gross mismanagement and stupidity. All their communicators sang the same song " COVID 19, Russia - Ukraine war " to cover up their foolishness and gross stupidity and incompetence. The mother serpent himself must be forced to face the law to teach him and his cronies common sense. Idiots with no manners and dignity
