“ Her [Konadu Agyeman Rawlings’] office, according to her, since the
assumption of power by the Mills-led administration, has been flooded
with a blizzard of complaints from party members, and it is her wish to
use the first vice chairmanship platform to help address some of those
grievances. Konadu Rawlings” (Ghanaweb Nov 12, 2009).

PART 1: POWER LURKING IN THEIR RAGS TO RICHES SAGA
Power is sweet in their deceitful sugary-decaying mouths
In their vindictive decaying minds and predatory hands
Power in the teeth of their rags to riches story is mesmerizing
Power is sweet for JEZEBEL Konadu & RE-DELUSIONAL JJ
Konadu has soon forgotten about the heyday of JJ’s yoke gari
She has forgotten that JJ had to steal Ghana Air Force seats
For their furniture-less Air-force-barracks two-room home
Yes, she has forgotten about their furniture-less living room
Indebted yoke-gari hungry JJ now has a distended pot-belly
Bellyful of cacophonic hypocrisy and delusional importance
Both are not grateful to coward Ghanaians mostly elitist men
Who hero-worship them for “tribal” and thievery reasons

PART 2: NOVEL RICHES AND RESTLESSNESS OF POWER
Konadu has not forgotten that she is the queen of power
Enthroned in three state-owned bungalows in Royal Ridge
They live in fabulous wealth and unfathomable riches
Poor Ghanaian taxpayers pay for their imported water
Poor Ghanaian taxpayers pay for their imported foods
Poor Ghanaian taxpayers pay for their state cars
Poor Ghanaian taxpayers pay for their fuel aka petrol
Poor Ghanaian taxpayers pay for their housing needs
Poor Ghanaian taxpayers pay for their expensive booze
Ghanaian taxpayers pay for JJ’s mind-altering NTAMPE
And anonymous friends bought a Jacuzzi for Konadu
To heal her self-induced politically-groomed backache
Anonymous friends paid for their kids’ re/education
Anonymous friends gave them four bullet-proof SUVs
Anonymous friends built a palace for them in Adjirigano
Anonymous friends bought overseas mansions for them
Anonymous friends pay for their globe-trotting antics
Stolen power and Ghanaian cowardice have been kind
To Konadu and JJ who think they alone can rule Ghana

PART 3: KONADU YOU HAVE FOOLED US ENOUGH
Konadu and JJ have fooled and stolen from Ghanaians
And yet still tell us about their Social DEMOCRAZY
The poor masses have been their referent point all along
But they do not live like the impoverished lot of masses
Konadu’s penchant for the best ntama pa is well-known
The size of her big headgear can cover the whole Ghana
Now she is talking about their Social DEMOCRAZY
Yes, she has forgotten the bloody Castle bottle-haircuts
She has forgotten about women caned in the genitalia
She has forgotten that the keys to the Fiat Campagnola
The keys used by her husband hired kinsmen assassins
To murder the Judges including a lactating woman
Were picked from her secured, luxuriant dining table
By kinsmen murderers happily recruited by her husband
She has forgotten all the murdered Kyeremeh Djans
Their Social DEMOCRAZY only buys Nsawam Cannery
Their Social DEMOCRAZY would be unaccountable
For all the loans contracted by the Jezebled 31st December

PART 4: KONADU, ALLOW MILLS TO SEIZE TOILETS
Konadu tell us what you want in spite of your stolen wealth
Tell us what you want from impoverished Ghanaian masses
Tell us what you want from your anonymous kind friends
Your husband stole twenty years of our watershed history
To brutalize us like trokosi dependants of Anloga shrines
So leave Mills alone to enslave us until the chosen 2012
We can live with Mills’ seizing of toilets, cars, cars, diapers
At least Mills has not killed any judge or a Yeye Boy
Mills has not imposed a national curfew on when to sleep
Mills has not collected 50-Cedi notes or seized any assets
Mills has not used human excreta bombs to silence us
Yes, Mills has seized cars, cars, cars - his best policy
Mills has seized public toilets, toilets - his major policy
Mills has asked Ayariga to steal five additional tractors
Yes, Mills has abandoned Fante dokono, ampesi, fufu
In favor of full-time co-op akpele dinners in the Castle
With tuwe safi as deserts atop KONOM-TEA tea
Yes, Mills is asking whether he is the chosen President

PART 5: YOUR RE-DELUSION IS LONG DEAD
Konadu you and your predator husband should shut up
Should leave Mills alone to seize toilets, cars, diapers
Your husband ruled for 20 brutal predatory years
He hounded his real and imagined critics out of Ghana
He killed and imprisoned some of his critics in the dark
Snail-like Mills has not murdered his critics in daylight
Mills won’t make way for Satan’s second coming
Mills is making signal contributions by seizing toilets
2012 will signify how Mills politicized excrement
2012 will show how the NDC politicized toilets
Then Ghanaians will ask you, Konadu, to sniff it all
