  Thanks to the author of the article as you have highlighted salient points. The once great relationship between Racep and Fethullah movement seems to have come to a close and I believe Mr. Racep is only targeting organizations linked to the Fethullah movement. One thing is clear, that the Fethullah movement promotes inter-religious faith dialogue whereas Racep and his AKP party are just hard-line muslims who needs to be watched. In fact, Ghanaians must be watchful of Racep Tayyip Erdogan's affiliated organizations such as Bab-i-Alem which comes to Ghana to pick young men to train as artisans and to give them islamic education in Turkey. Most of these young men are given free houses and some few dollars to entice them to be radicalized hard-line muslims. We must rather be watchful of Racep Tayyip and not Galaxy and Tusiad which are Fethullah linked. Said my peice. Thanks.

  Our thanks to Dr. Antwi Danso for taking this one on!
  
  We do not know much about relations between Ghana and Turkey, except the superficial. However, we know that Mr. Erdogan has been part of a distabilizing force in their neck of the wood.
  
  It is idiotic for Erdogan to seek to control what people feel and say about him, in Germany, Europe, and Ghana, etc.
  
  He has antocratic, and Ghanaians better beware.
  
  So, we agree, when Dr. Antwi Danso report:
  "...we had warned that even though Turkey holds the key to stability in the greater Middle East...the governance style of...Erdogan is creating more problems for the Middle East, Europe, and Turkey itself..."
  
  
  THEN THIS FROM ERDOGAN HIMSELF: "...Turkey looks forward to working more closely with our African friends and allies in a range of areas….."
  
  WE SAY: Do that, Erdogan. But do not attempt to export your type of tyranny and religious intolerance to Ghana and Africa.
