An Email To Roland Acquah-Stevens

Hello Roland,


I do hope you are well.


I wonder if there is any way one could get hold of a copy of the "Jezebel" tape-recording from Raymond Archer's Election Forensics programme, which was  aired on Radio Gold FM,  during the December 2008 presidential election?


It was broadcast  at the time when  some of the hardliners  in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) - Atta Akyea & Co. who when they  thought no one was listening in to their treachery, said there were
"'right judges": i.e. pro-New Patriotic Party judges in the juduciary-  were hastily working out a plan  to enable them purloin  the December 2008 presidential  election.


I am planning to write an article that makes the   point  that an NPP in the vice-like grip of the same extremist  individuals -  whom  the late Mr. J. B. Da Rocha counselled against challenging Professor Mills' election as President in the law courts, because it was neither in the NPP's interest nor that of Ghana's -   must not be trusted by independent-minded and patriotic Ghanaians, because it  is capable of anything:  including, as the world will soon find out,   taking the egregious falsehood that the Electoral Commissioner rigged the December 2012 presidential election in President Mahama's favour, to the Supreme Court,  just to try to  win power again through the back-door:  courtesy legal technicalities,  after losing a free and fair election.


It is crucial to remind ordinary Ghanaians that in December 2008, some of the NPP's  hardliners  were prepared to fabricate the kinds of blatant lies  that that Jezebel woman in Germany,  was heard on a  tape-recording advising a  young chap -  who kept  on referring to her as "Auntie"(or was it "Sister?") -  to get the party's  big-wigs to tell the world.


As you and I both know, those monstrous lies were cooked up, simply  to enable  that small band  of  NPP hardliners to  steal the presidential election  that Professor Mills  won.


A political party  enthralled to a small group of narcissitic and arrogant  extremists,  for whom the end justifies the means,  simply cannot be trusted  - because it  is capable of anything.


It would help our nation if Radio Gold played  that particular tape-recording  again  - in addition to the other Election Forensics tape-recordings.


They will help awaken  a suffering people easily led up the garden path  by ruthless and  cynical politicians -  because of  their short memories.


We must prevent those with a secret agenda -  to increase their personal net worth at Mother Ghana's expense -  who seek to come to power through the back-door, from succeeding in their aim: and  getting away with their abominable chicanery.


Incidentally, when is President Mahama going to publicly publish his assets and those of his wife - to enable him occupy the  moral high ground in mainstream Ghanaian politics, and shame the many envious against-Mahama-dissemblers?


Hopefully, when the investigations into alleged corruption at the Ghana Youth Employment and Entrepreneurial Development Agency ( GYEEDA) are completed, the President will have all those found culpable,  prosecuted swiftly,  in the law courts.


That will send a strong  signal to all the remaining  crooks sheltering in the National Democratic Congress (NDC).


Those corrupt individuals are a gift to the NPP's blunderbuss-spin-doctors - and a disgrace to  the NDC   with their shameful and dubious ways,   resulting from the  unfathomable greed that seems to drive them.


I do look forward to hearing that Jezebel tape-recording. Thank you - and peace and blessings to you, Roland.


Yours in the service of Ghana,


Kofi.
