Socrates in the 4th century BC or thereabouts said very skeptical of democracy that it would pay dearly. The poor will want the wealth of the wealthy and democracy will give it to them.The youth will want be respected like the old achievers with experience, women will want to be like men,foreigners will want the rights of the natives and democracy will make this possible. Thieves and con men will want positions of importance and democracy will also give that to them .When thieves and con artists finally democratically gain power as criminals and evil men have a urge always to gain power we will have a tyranny worse than any monarchy or oligarchy unquote. This all evident in the pndc /ndc govt today including the perverse leanings towards inter-gender role exchanges and promotion of homosexuality.Thus Winston Churchill said that democracy is the "worst form of government," just better than all the others. the problem Plato has with democracy in the Republic is not the absence of the rule of law but just the fact that the wrong people are in power-people without the proper virtues or integrity.Development pepeni omanhene says is unequaled on his watch, and i ask what is the meaning? Is it the total uselessness , or insignificance , level of plaigatory theft of projects, corruption kick backs or the benefits his kleptomaniac brothers and cronies have acquired , the level of prejudice of against anything that can benefit Akan areas or people . Pepeni has borrowed and created more debt than all the previous presidents before him combined including Nkrumah yet we dont see any results such as the attempts of raising any basic or primary industry to add some value to our natural resources before export that creates jobs for millions as Nkrumah and all presidents except for pepeni and JJ tried to. What is unequaled is the billions that have been siphoned out of the country mainly to Islamic destinations like Iran , Dubai and Turkey. He boasts about the nonexistent 200 schools yet forgets over a century ago Akans mainly Fantes built schools that today would each cost no less than 20 million each. He offers markets and toilets as if the local community could not do so themselves if the taxes and various levies collected in those areas remained there. But no pepeni/ayigbe must chop bribe together with their Gas Adas and other satellite allies against the Akans. A govt whose members are selected not based on competence but their level of hate or prejudice against the Akan majority or the family blood ties to pepeni mahama can never serve anybody except their selfish selves and will always fail. The success or failure of any business , govt or social enterprise is determined by the personnel or cadre who execute the defined goals. In our case we need a govt selected based on merit and experience to get us out of this vicious circle of poverty and bad luck , so i would expect to see at least 3 investment bankers , 4 engineers , 2 macro economists and one doctor of project management and that govt with people of integrity will surely have results in less than a year. Competent Ghanaian all decline to associate themselves with NDC and their corruption driven govt.Pepeni went to mislead the chiefs to use festivals to promote market and project development but omitted to tell them no project has made it through the finance ministry without paying an arm and a leg in bribes , talk less of the cabinet or parliamentary committees. Mafias dont need economists or bankers but rather opt for book keepers or accountants like we see in our minister of finance being shadowed spied and watched by pepeni's cousin chief director Alajih Major Tara. Look at former minister of state for development now minister of science technology with his dentist of army qualification Alajih Dr Mustafa Ahmed and tell me he is capable of contributing something good except positioning himself to collect bribes. None of this will ever end up in Ghanian media or newspapers as NDC ( mainly Ga /Ada) activists now holding national security id s go around intimidating the journalists ,editors and owners of these establishments. We know the motive for these useless utterances by pepeni as his strategy ids to hoodwink the people into believing so much has been done for development , with roads , schools etc but notice there is no railway , no health services with modern ambulances including helicopters , fire services lack fighting water tank planes or helicopters talk less of specialized fire fighting equipment as not all will pay bribes , no initiation of any strategically important industry . Just get ready for the whirlwind of propaganda and lies saying the empty projects with no direction is what we couldn't do ourselves so they did. No self respecting intellectual worth his wait will throw pearls of wisdom before this pepeni/ayigbe swine . These idiotic ndc will always blame the Akans privately or npp publicly for making them fail or the country ungovernable but in reality they just don't know how , jj failed and so will they in their tribalistic hegemony. Yes rig the elections a thousand times and each time you will fail abysmally .Let them continue to adorn themselves with vainglorious titles of esteem or positions of influence and power but as the coat doesn't make the man so all this will eventually end up in their own failure and misery BULLSHIT GALORE

This explanation does not sound correct. This foreign company simply ignore this poor man. According to Tony Nwosu, Country Manager for Baker Hughes, the company did not have the authority or power of attorney to make decisions on behalf of Mr Boateng. This is not true because the same person said that Mr. Boateng when he went to coma, later regained consciousness. That means that he did not need anyone to make decisions for him.Mr. Boateng was conscious now and did not need Power of Attorney to make decisions. His physicians could talk with him. If his physicians dumped him in a nursing home, it was wrong. It can only be done by the instructions his company who is paying the cost. Unless on his file, the said Mr. Boating has written "DO NOT RESUSCITATE." Even that might have been a different issue. As I read the explanation, it is true that the Company Baker Hughes abandon this employee.
Good night and good luck, do good work!!!!!!

Yap! that doggone Baker. I worked for them in Houston Texas for 8 years. They are loaded with pride and good at extravagant wastage of funds on unimportant things but turn their eyes away from reality human problems especially if you are a foreigner. I worked with these oil companies like Weatherford, BP Amoco, Exxon Mobile. They are doggone exploiters. Dude, sue them and hit them hard.

What is the side of the story from the family? What is Govt doing about this. Clearly a family cannot be expected to be able to tackle an Oil Giant?
The State should appoint a seasoned Attorney to represent the family in all negotiations and discussions going forward.
Questions which remain unanswered are the following:
1. Has Mr Boateng been compensated for the work place injury?
2. For how long will his income be protected?
3. Why was a sick young man taken to an old age home and not a hospital?
4. Is South Africa the best option for care in this case? What about the companies home country the USA?
No one should be fooled by the public display of sympathy. It is a pure publicity gimmick.
They need to do more to show genuineness.

Ghanaian ey!! .. Who does that?... which company in Ghana will still put an injured worker on a payroll when sick for over years? Which company will give better treatment to their workers.. and have to finished asking ourselves why they didnt bring him to our hospitals?... Look.. this company is doing well .. and we should rather encourage them to care for our brother. For I think the family and the victims brother was unduly influenced by those activist to blackmail the company. U know how activist hype things. Lets ask ourselves... the many times that the brother went to SA, who paid for trip?... his hotel expenses and stuff, who paid?... And I not sure the word "Abandon" is too serious a word to use. Please!. I'm sure the victim himself will be sad for how this "little" issue has been hyped on air. I pray that God will heal him.
They would have left this man to die if his plight hadn't been made known publicly.
