What is Nkrumaists or Bussiaists in the context of modern civilization or globalization? Where does even capitalism of the US or socialism of USSR stand ? Whoever fails to value the good and bad sides of these ideologies would not see the present day because they are now to be a guide for the future. Allow everyone to say his mind as he or she sees it and you would be able to address his or her concern. Ghana is for Ghanaians and even foreigners can have a say in our affairs because we are now in a small world unlike the days we were made to think Jerusalem was in Heaven. Had it not been Party Politics, those structures could have been developed in a better way as they were advancing the course of the Communities just as the various Presidential Initiatives including those for school children are now a history. Democracy entails tolerance of divergent views so we must be ready to learn from the wise ,average and the fool. Do not expect me to be fool before you listen to me. Life is real and you can not run away from it. You either learn from his experience whether good or bad but do not think you can silence any Ghanaian.if our intellectuals who have read Economics can make us minority shareholders because some investor has only brought some capital to develop our oil despite the value of our land and other things taking into consideration and you even do not see the importance of our TOR to be advanced to face current challenges to create employment; should I invite my late grandfather to come and teach you Abunsaa? We have gone beyond Ghana, ECOWAS,AU and now envisaging what Globalization has for us, please.

You forgot two main things and I humbly wish to remind Ghanaians. There was account number 48 at the bank of Ghana into which business people found guilty by Rawlings' kangaroo courts paid fines running into millions of cedis. Certain taxes from imports were also paid into that account. Rawlings and his family must account for the money's accumulated in that account. The second has to do with deposit made by Ghanaians of all 50-cedi notes in the possession of Ghanaians. I was a student by then and deposited 16 notes valued at 800 cedis at the time. We want an account of those deposits from these criminals of a family.

Why blame Rawlings, we got what we deserved because we Ghanaians like 'to follow follow' without thinking of the subsequent problems associated with it and we still do to this present day especially with general elections around the corner, we will not take time to evaluate things so as to vote according to our conscience; we rather accept any type of gift from a any politician to get our votes, that is 'selling our conscience and or our birth right' - that's how stupid we are!

Probable Rawlings is not the right person to say that but trust me Mills and Mahama could not exonerate themselves from the Loot and Share Easy-Way kind of stealing that have come to stay with us since Mill took office from the NPP till date. Rawlings and his wife cannot come clean on corruption but for you to ask or make this foolish commentary is very stupid. Read Yourself :" But what makes Atta Mills, John Mahama and their Nkrumaiats comrades criminals? What crime have they committed? Can their perceived crimes ever surpass that of Rawlings and his wife? ".
You idiot!
To suffocate and starve the entire citizenry is worst a crime than to take the gun and kill some collectve few dubious characters. Well, Rawlings killed Afrifa, Achiampong, Amedome, Utuka, Akufo and many others by firing squad but crimes of current leadership of the NDc, as Rawlings is lamenting here, deserve a mob justice of public toucher and mutiny.
Loot and Share was not part and parcel of Rawlings regime. He was a hater and a criminal but his overall criminality could not surpass that of the so called Nkrumahist who have hijacked the NDC from its founder.

Oh Ghana! When at all is this innocent land going to get some honest group of leaders to lead her? It seems that since the overthrown of that guy Nkrumah Ghana has been going down and down and continues to go down. Is this a surprising phenomenon that has been hitting hard on Ghana? Why have Ghanaians succumb to corrupt practices and everyone in the country bent on doing things his or her own way to obtain money and wealth, note that I didn’t even say to be rich.
Every little helps and any little thing goes, all principles and values thrown out of the window. From cleaners, porters to Immigration Officers and Customs Officers at our airports and Harbours who beg or take money away from you to the bank clerk or government official to directors of companies demanding sex from their female staff and to the sly politician - heeeey, they’re the worst of the lot. Everyone it seems is at it as if their very lives depended on such practices and would die the next minute if they do not get that dishonest monies or gift or bribes from their “lala sulala” ways. Absolutely despicable as these same Ghanaians fill up the churches and mosques on Sundays and Fridays every weekend oblivious of the harms they’ve been doing to their God, country and consequently themselves and future generations.
As far as I’m concerned this is not surprising at all given that before children are sent to nurseries right through primary schools, they would already been exposed to dishonest ways of doing things by parents and those around them. These same children will grow to learn how to be lazy at their books and would resort to chasing after leaked exams papers and by the time they get to the universities there then "Massa" they're professionals in the game and what do you expect when they come out to lead the governments and take leadership roles in the land? May God have mercy! These were the tendencies that Nkrumah observed and foresaw would bring enormous challenges and harm to the nation's progress; that was why he fought tirelessly to bring the tribes together to buy into patriotic attitudes and behaviours for the benefit of the entity - Ghana for the benefit of all her children.
These were seen in some of his programmes as the Young Pioneers movements, nationwide boarding school systems etc. In those days when parents were scared that their children could report them to authorities for activities that hindered the progress of the nation, people didn’t want that, they wanted no change at all, they wanted to continue in the corrupt mindset that our colonial masters had brainwashed them into after three hundred years of charting their forbears away as slaves. The people of Ghana led by some of their corrupt leaders forced that Nkrumah guy out of the land.
The repercussions are what we see all around us today. Our cultures are even innately corrupt. Even in our traditional settings when someone offends and breaks the law, we always know someone who knows someone who can lead and go and plead and pacify with gifts and kinds for the person to be set free. The culprit would then not learn to experience punishment that comes with breaking laws and it's like that throughout the cultures and traditions of Ghana, and therefore these are carried into our national level and psyche.
