LOOK AT OUR ELECTRICITY AND WATER TARIFFS , NHIS GONE, TRANSPORT FARES TOO HIGH, SCHOOL FEES RIDICULOUS, SCHOOL FEEDING GONE, YOU CAN'T PAY TEACHERS AND NURSES WAGES AND EVEN ALLOWANCES FOR TRAINEES, ZACHAEUS STEALTH TAXES , NO JOBS FOR THE YOUTH, FREE MATERNITY CARE DESTROYED-- "NA SIKA NO WO HE"???? EXPERTS RECKON ONLY $7 BILLION HAD BEEN USED, WHEN THEY DO QUANTITIES ON NDC SO CALLED PROJECTS, SO WHERE IS THE 33 BILLION US DOLLARS??? ---- TODAY, WE NEED SIX TIMES OUR OIL REVENUE JUST TO SERVICE THE INTEREST. WHERE LIES THE FUTURE OF THE YOUTH???? -- MY CHILDREN ARE NOT GOING TO PAY. WE WILL VOTE YOU OUT, COLLECT OUR STOLEN MONEYS FROM NDC AND JAIL YOU ALL NO MATTER WHICH PLANET YOU COME FROM. ASIEDU NKETIA IS SCARED OF HIS DUBIOUS BUI DAM DEAL!!!!! NDC HAS ABANDONED THEIR PROBITY, TRANSPARENCY, INTEGRITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY SLOGAN. WE WILL NEVER AGREE, WE MUST CARRY IT TO THEM. OTHERS , I REPEAT, WERE KILLED BY NDC. ACHEAMPONG, AKUFO , AFRIFA AND A HOST OF OTHERS LOST THEIR LIVES. THOUSANDS LOST THEIR PROPERTIES AND BANK BALANCES. WE NEED A DEMOCRATIC HOUSE CLEANING EXERCICE IN 2017 TO BRING SANITY INTO OUR GOVERNANCE SYSTEM. WHAT IS THE NDC AFRAID OF?? IF THEY SERVED THE COUNTRY AND THEY ARE CLEAN???? WHEN DZIFA WENT TO EWELAND, SHE DID NOT TELL THEM WHAT SHE HAS ACHIEVED FOR GHANA AS A TRANSPORT MINISTER BUT ASKED THEM TO PROTECT HER BECAUSE SHE HAS CAUSED FINANCIAL LOSS TO THE STATE. WHAT AN INSULT TO THE INTELLIGENCE OF THE PEOPLE OF VOLTA REGION? ??????

When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Comment to: NPP’s Manhyia North poll was ‘bribery and curses
He said "the NPP had lost its identity and had now become the preserve of the rich, who were actively buying votes to win internal elections.
For that reason, he wondered if the NPP had the moral right to accuse Mr John Mahama of using state resources to pay bribes and buy votes, when the outcome of its own polls was questionable".
Some of us have always known that the NPP strategy of labeling the President as corrupt was a strategy to hide their own massive corruption in their party. if there was ever a doubt, Chairman Wuntomi's aide has erased all that. Now we know NPP better.

Traditional Satanism is not simply an inversion, but a complete rejection of the images of a
0244908520particular culture, religion, or philosophy. From there a Satanist uses those images against the ethos itself, that was once his own conditioning. Persons who participate in traditional Satanic masses sometimes experience a king of 'sartori', a sudden enlightenment, to an increase in their own consciousness, and feeling stronger and satisfied because they had broken with the constraining opposites. In other words, at its highest level Satanism uncovers what the ethos of a particular community or society has covered up through images, dogma, words and ideas, returning the individual to the primal chaos out of which 'opposites' were created." ~ Magister Hagur, Temple of Atazoth Office

While not stating the rational behind its suggestion of delaying retirement for the soldiers, it seems the NPP is pandering to soldiers in an attempt to win votes. Raising the retirement is not only a bad idea, but also a budget buster. Can the army afford to keep a bunch old men and women on its payrolls who have past their prime? A person who enlists in the army at twenty years old and serves all the twenty-four years in the army and retires at forty-five years old, can still find work as a civilian. You don't need a sixty year-olds, who can barely meet the rigors of the army running around in the barracks.
