    Get your steel helmet on because the darts and arrows going to be pointed at your head need the iron curtain to prevent them for doing any harm.

    Your Akan hate is apparent by saying other tribes did not complain about Kuffour Akan dominated cabinet as Akans are doing. Actually the Akans are not even complaining as the Ewes and Northerners did during Kuffour's time.

    Akans, Ewes, Northerners all complain about tribal favouritism. There are more Akans than Ewes or Northerners. That alone e ...

  • SHAMU 10 years ago

    Is good my first day of visiting Ghanaweb to meet such an unthinkable suggestion. There is no tribe that can`t hold a post, but it really remained to be given to competitive people. Actually, appointing Akans or ashantis for ...
