Like Kennedy Adjapong Is President Kufuor Too Not Really A Tribal-Supremacist Politician - As Are Many Of Their Party's Leading Members?

Do those independent-minded and patriotic Ghanaians,  in whose view,  charging that  nouveau riche philistine  and tribal-supremacist politician, Kennedy Adjapong,  with treason, genocide and terrorism, amounted to  "crass stupidity" (to quote one such Ghanaian), not have a point after all,  one wonders?




Why trivialise a serious crime  against humankind,  such as genocide, by charging him with it, when in saying what he did,  that bloody fool had not actually killed a single soul -  let alone hundreds of thousands of Ga Dangbes and Ewes, in an orgy of ethnic cleansing by his party members, financed and organised by him, I ask?




And if he did not in fact  also take part in a conspiracy with others,  seeking  the overthrow of the elected government of the day,  which he also agreed he would finance,  why charge him for treason, too?




And why terrorism -  when what they were confronted with,  was a man whose utterances were liable to cause fear and panic,  amongst a section of the general  public?



It was daft and politically inept to do so, on the part of the faceless (and power-drunk)  individuals,  behind this classic example of the abuse of the legal system for political ends.




One's rather surprised too, at   those who feel outraged by ex-President Kufuor's "sledgehammer" remarks,  when he  commented  openly on Kennedy Adjapong's  nation-wrecking and   vituperative verbiage.




What else did they expect from that quarter, dear reader? Has it escaped  them,  that the hypocritical  Kufuor too,  is himself an arch  tribal-supremacist politician?




Have they forgotten so soon  that there were  many discerning and independent-minded Ghanaians, who said at the time,  that he   saw his election to power as president of our homeland Ghana, as a golden opportunity,  for the tribal-supremacist cabal that dominated the New Patriotic Party (NPP) regime  he led for eight long years, to use the entire machinery of state  to promote their  tribal Chieftain  as  the de facto leader of a state-within-a-state,  and monarch of Nkrumah's Ghana?




Indeed many patriotic individuals say that he is actually cast in the same mould as Kennedy Adjapong - only a tad more diplomatic  (hypocritical's the word one ought to use, perhaps)  than that tribalistic  blackguard: as are many of their confounded party's leading lights. That is why they must be prevented from fragmenting our country further - by keeping them away from the Osu Castle and the Flagstaff House, in the December 2012 elections. A word to the wise...
