"Fake News"? What Fake News? What Bloody Cheek!

The trouble about your average Ghanaian politician, given a high-level position by a serving  president,  is that some of them eventually  become so power-drunk  that they succeed in deluding themselves into thinking that somehow  they are invincible - veritable masters of the universe.  Hon. Patrick Omane  Boamah and Stan Dogbe come easily to mind from the years of high-level-impunity that  characterised most of the Mahama era.

It never once occurred to either of those geniuses that the judgement of history can neither be purchased by media manipulation,  nor secured by clever strategising, in collaborative-scheming  with  their big-ego media co-conspirators. Sadly, in the end, they both lost all credibility with most discerning minds in Ghana.  President Akufo-Addo's regime's Hon. Kwadwo Oppong Nkrumah's 'smoothness' reminds one so much of the aforementioned  Mahama-era National Democratic Congress (NDC) regime's Goebbels-like spokespersons.

Alas, what such present-day  regime-geniuses  forget, is that unlike the indecisive Mahama,  President Akufo-Addo is a very serious-minded  leader, who will never put personal loyalty (to those appointees who can't deliver world-class performance in office after being appointed by him), above the well-being of Mother Ghana,  and the all-important government  business, of the  promotion of the welfare of the  ordinary people of our country.

In any case, in  the fullness of time, we will all get to know which 'Kwadwo Oppong Nkrumah ''fake-news'' high-level appointee, gets turfed out of office -  by a serious -minded and very  determined president keen to leave a lasting legacy: by transforming our homeland Ghana into a prosperous society, which achieves the most of the seventeen United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), in the continent  of Africa. When that happens, perhaps the Kwadwo Oppong Nkrumahs will finally come to understand why President Akufo-Addo did not consult geniuses like them when appointing Hon. Martin Amidu  as our nation's first Special Prosecutor. Hmmm, Oman Ghana - eyeasem  o: asem kesie ebeba  debi ankasa. ''Fake news"? What fake news? What bloody cheek!
