A Prayer To God Almighty - On Behalf Of President Akufo-Addo

Dear God Almighty,


We are grateful to you, for sparing the life of President Akufo-Addo (our hardest-working, most honest, principled, incorruptible and most visionary elected leader, since the overthrow of President Nkrumah, in 1966 - whom I support 100 percent!), when he tested positive for antibodies of COVID-19, and subsequently went into self-isolation.


As you are well aware, according to bush-telegraph sources, some of the greed-filled and ruthless hardiners in his administration (and the confounded New Patriotic Party (NPP) that he leads), presented him with a fait accompIi (the sidelining of Ghana's most fearless and boldest Auditor General, since Ghana gained her independence in 1957, Mr.Demelovo), when he ended his 14-day period of self-isolation, by announcing that the decison to replace Mr. Domelovo, with his deputy, would not be rescinded.


Lord God Almighty, just as President Akufo-Addo kept his own counsel, and ignored the loud protestations of those who opposed it, and went ahead to select Mr. Martin Amidu, as Ghana's first Special Prosecutor, please send us a similar miracle, which will also make him rescind the abominable decision to replace Mr. Domelovo by his deputy - and go on to announce that he would not only rescind that abominable decision, but that after his re-election, he would swiftly send a bill to Parliament, asking for the Auditor General to be given prosecutorial powers. Cool.


Dear Lord God Almighty, such an announcement, by President Akufo-Addo, will resonate with the vast majority of fair-minded Ghanaians, and ensure his re-election, by an even wider margin, in the looming December presidential election.


So, Dear God Almighty (who loves Mother Ghana, so), please let that miracle happen asap - so that our honest and incorruptible President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, regains the lost trust and confidence, of the most discerning and apolitcal-Ghanaians, who cheered him on, when he ignored the advice of all the hardliners in his party, and went ahead to appoint Mr. Martin Amidu, as Ghana's first Special Prosecutor. Amen.

Yet Another Quick Note To Hon. Abass Fuseini Sbaabe

Dear Hon. Abass  Fuseini Sbaabe,

This is my humble advice to you and your party: Go to court, if  need be, wai, Massa. You are perfectly  right to fear the New Patriotic Party  (NPP), in this particular  instance. Their greed-filled-hardliners are very, very,  very dangerous: they will stop at nothing to retain power,  having now become totally power-drunk, and egregiously-avaricious, to boot.


Hon. Abass, some of us know things that precious few journalists in Ghana are aware of - because fate placed one in a particular family. Massa, unlike most Ghanaian media professionals, growing up as a young but precocious boy, it so happens that most of the major historical figures of the immediate post-Nkrumah era, used to frequent our home, for dinner parties, and sundry strategy-session-meetings.

What I overhead, in some of those parties, and meetings, as well as in Telefunken radio-telephone (issued then to National Liberation Council Commissioners to communicate with themselves and with  their military and police masters) conversations,  appalled and horrified me, because they were full of abominable Akan tribal-supremacist rubbish. And it was rubbish, no question - for no tribe in modern Africa is inferior or superior to another. I am an Akan myself, Massa.   Full stop.

It is the foundation-stone-reason for my abhorance of  the NPP (and its various  political-historical-antecedents), because I got to know their top-secret secret agenda - and, even though today I support President Akufo-Addo 100 percent, because he is the best leader for our country now, I loathe his party (that is now unfortunately  dominated by uncouth-thugs, such as the boastful and tiresome Bernard Antwi-Boasiakos, and the shortsighted and gung-ho Bryan Acheampongs), with a passion, borne out of my deep love for Mother Ghana, since my boyhood days.

Last point: To understand the Electoral Commission's  obduracy, you and your party's members ought to listen carefully,  to the tape-recording of Hon. Atta Akyea's desperate-maneuvering, which Raymond  Archer broadcast, in his 'Election Forensics' programme, aired on Radio Gold  FM, to get their then candidate  Akufo-Addo,  declared winner, of the 2008 presidential election.

In that secret recording, you will hear him asking for intelligence reports on the whereabouts of Dr. Afari Djan, who was the Electoral Commissioner, then, so that he would be given whatever he wanted, whatever it cost. Get the picture?

Massa, your guess is as good as mine, as to what he meant, exactly. Can you now understand why the present EC Commissioners are so bent on fitting snuggly into the masterplan designed by party hardliners, to ensure that the NPP emerges victorious, in the 2020 December presidential and parliamentary elections, at all costs?

Just add two and two together, wai. That is why your party must go to court, every time the EC deviates from the laws guiding its conduct - such as registering SHS students in voter registration centres that aren't gazetted. That is the only way that  the unacceptable-bias of certain judges, will be exposed, wai.Yoooooo...

Finally, above all, always remember what was in the secret letter, which Hon. Ken Ofori-Atta  sent to his  Cabinet colleagues, last year,  in which  he predicted that Nduom (whom he stressed was after all  their political opponent), would challenge the revocation  of his GN Bank's license, in the law courts - but  that, there too, they would prevail: because  they were the regime in power. Do you understand the import of that egregiously-undemocratic statement, Massa? Hmmmm, Oman Ghana, enti yewieye paaa enei? Massa, eyeasem, ooooo - asem kesie ebeba debi ankasa, ooooo.   Yoooooo...

Who Will Ensure Accountability In The Spending Of The COVID-19 Economic-Revival-Cash - With Mr. Domelovo's Sidelining?

When the New Patriotic Party's  (NPP) bigwigs were campaigning for power,  during the 2016 presidential and parliamentary elections, one of their key focused-campaign-messaging, was that the Mahama regime was irredeemably corrupt,  and that a change in  government, would enable the incorruptible Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo (may God Almighty bless and protect him from the greed-filled back-stabbers in his administration, always!), to become Ghana's new leader, whose administration would bring high-level corruption to an end.

What we were not allowed to stop, and think about, by the high-decible campaign-messaging, was that despite Nana Akufo-Addo's undoubted honesty, and demonstrable-incorruptible-and-principled-nature,  there was a distinct possibility that hypocritical individuals might unwittingly be included in his inner-circle, who would also join the long queue of those, who over the decades since President Nkrumah's overthrow, in 1966,  have come to power,  just to "Chop Ghana small!", and send their net worth to stratospheric heights.

The question is: Now that the cabal of greed-filled hardliners in President Akufo-Addo'-s inner-circle, have succeeded in getting rid of Mr. Domelovo, Ghana's  most fearless, and daring  Auditor General, since independence in 1957, who, amongst the spineless-grovellers currently in the higher reaches of the Auditor General's Department, will ensure accountability, in the gleeful-spending, of the zillions of COVID-19 economic-revival-cash, now sloshing round our system, as we speak?  Hmmm, Oman Ghana, eyeasem, ooooo - enti yewieye paaa enei? Asem kesie ebeba debi ankasa. Yooooo...

Must The NPP's Hardliners Be Forced To Stop Backstabbing President Akufo-Addo Now?

President Akufo-Addo (may God Almighty bless and protect him always), is a very good leader, being stabbed in the back, by ungrateful and greedy hardliners in his party, who are clearly determined to send their net worth to stratospheric heights, by stealth, at all costs. 

They will destroy the president's very  impressive  legacy, thus far, such as it is, as sure as day follows night, if they are not stopped. Yooooo...

As we speak, only God Almighty stands between him and those power-drunk, greed-filled-monsters, so determined to send Ghana over the precipice, if need be, by state-sponsored violence - currently being unleashed in a nationwide voter-suppression mission.

That egregious violence is being used for the sole-purpose of voter-suppression, in Electoral Commission (EC) registration centres, nationwide - and it is being perpetrated by myrmidon-thugs from privately-owned militias, the Delta Force and Invincible Forces, said to belong (according to bush-telegraph sources), to NPP hardliner-bigwigs.

Those mostly-moronic-sods, according to bush-telegraph sources, have apparently been infiltrated into the state security apparatus, by the gung-ho Bryan Acheampongs, in cahoots with the uncouth-nuveaux-riche Bernard Antwi-Boasiakos.

In other words, having been dressed in police and military uniforms, when out in the public space, instead of answering to the chain-of-command of the police and military, those mostly-drug-crazed-myrmidons, rather take their marching orders from the many greed-driven grassroots-level party executives of the NPP, to be deployed to achieve their voter-suppression mission's nation-wrecking and destabilising objectives.

If our country is to be saved from a fate far worse than that experienced by Liberians and Sierra Leone's citizens, during the civil wars in Liberia and Sierra Leone, it is vital that the NPP's hardliners are forced to stop backstabbing President Akufo-Addo. Now. Not tomorrow. Hmmmm, Oman Ghana - eyeasem, ooooo. Asem kesie ebeba debi ankasa. Yoooooo...

With Respect, Is The Present Okyenhene A Genuine Environmental-Champion - And Does The Akyem Abuakwa Abuakwa State Council Serve The Best Interests Of Akyems?

Yesterday, I was informed by Mr. Ben Awuku, the young overseer, of my family's freehold 14-square mile upland evergreen rainforest property, at the Akyem Juaso section of the Atewa Range, that he had spotted some bushcut illegal chainsaw lumber, in our land, which was clearly awaiting evacuation to market - in what is without question one of the most beautiful places on the surface of the planet Earth.


Knowing from past experience that precious few individuals, amongst the many well-qualified professionals in Ghanaian officialdom's forestry sector, actually  care about such illegal activities,  because policing our forests has been rendered a more or less pointless, sysyphean-task (by the numerous infractions of the laws and regulations governing the sector, by corrupt high-level  regime-appointees, and their greedy cronies), I asked him to take a photograph of the said bushcut chainsaw lumber. 


Sadly, environmental-lawlessness is now widespread in Akyem Abuakwa. Yet, the Okyenhene continues to say he is a conservation-champion. Wonders. How, ironical. The question is: Why is the Akyem Abuakwa State Council refusing to see the trillions our natural heritage is actually worth - priceless natural capital that can underpin  an ecotourism green-economic-pillar?


It is that green post-COVID-19-path-to-development, not bauxite mining, which will create wealth that remains locally, and jobs galore for our younger generations, till the very end of time - were the Atewa Forest Reserve to be turned into a national park, by a stroke of President Akufo-Addo's pen, and all mining banned from it. Simple.   


The  Forestry Commission is useless and pointless on the ground.  That is the sad reality, now, alas. That is why one is simply now fed up to the backteeth, with the abomination, which the ongoing  brutal gang-rape of Mother Nature, in Akyem Abuakwa, today, represents.


That apocalyptic scenario, on the ground, in most of the landmass of Akyem Abuakwa, is a classic example of the impunity-of-the-rich-and-powerful, in today's Ghana. No question: There are lots of negative-types who posit that ours is a land of ace-hypocrites - but, for their information: Yen enma, Okyenman, ensei, da. Never. 


With the greatest respect, notice is hereby served to the spineless hypocrites amongst the membership of the Akyem Abuakwa State Council: They must tell those of us who actually care about the natural heritage of Akyem Abuakwa, and recognise that  our future, as an aspirational people who are also blessed with wisdom, whether or not  the current Okyenhene is a genuine environmental-champion - and, above all, whether or not the Akyem Abuakwa Abuakwa State Council itself, as presently constituted, exists to serve the best interests of Akyems. Enough is enough. Yoooooo. Hmmmm, Oman Ghana, eyeasem, ooooo - enti yewieye paaa enei? Asem kesie ebeba debi ankasa. We rest our case. Haaba.

Should Judges In Ghana's Highest Courts Always Be on The Side Of The Citizenry - In Cases Against Hard-Of-Hearing Governments Of The Day?

In a secret Cabinet letter, last year, Ghana's finance minister, Hon. Ken Ofori Atta, predicted that the founder of GN Bank, Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom, would fight back against the revocation of his bank's license,  by challenging it in the law courts - but he (Ofori Atta)  was confident that because they were the government of the day, they would prevail there too. Very, very interesting, that. So revealing of the iniquitous  nature of our system.

Recently, judgements have been passed in a number of high profile cases, by the judges hearing them, which have baffled many apolitical, discerning and independent-minded Ghanaians. When such decent and apolitical citizens begin feeling that some judges can be relied on by the government  of the day, to deliver judgements favourable to a government in power in this country that is hobbled by high-level corruption, it makes them feel that  it is a development that certainly does not augur well for our nation's collective future.  And it doesn't, as a matter of fact, if truth be told.

We are in the midst of a pandemic that is growing more and more serious, if one listens to some of the fears expressed by COVID-19 burial team members.

Yet, the governing party's hardliners have thrown caution to the wind, and put society at grave risk, by maneuvering to get the Electoral Commission (EC), to go ahead, with the compilation of a new voters register - in the midst of a highly contagious coronavirus, which is killing scores of Ghanaians, we are told, by COVID-19 burial team members, decrying the insouciance of so many Ghanaians, about the risks involved in not adhering to the containment protocols, meant to stop the virus from spreading.

One won't even go into the morality of sending school children back to notoriously unhygenic boarding schools, hitherto perpetually under siege  by bedbugs, so as to (it now has become obvious to all but the deliberately-blind), simply enable them to be registered to vote. That definitely is amoral. Ditto arrogant and irresponsible, without  question.

Yet, their parents had been promised solemnly  that no outsiders, including even  they the children's parents' and guardians,' themselves, would be allowed into those schools, whiles the students were there  - as a preventative measure to stop outsiders infecting them:  thus ensuring that no outsiders could possibly  endanger the lives of their children and wards in those  boarding schools. Was it not selfish and cynical in the extreme, therefore,  to then allow the EC and the ruling party's bigwigs, to have access to them, one wonders? Incredible. Unspeakable.  Monstrous. Unpardonable. Abominable.

After being deliberately shunted aside by the hardliners in his party (now busy backstabbing him left right and centre),  for 14 days, under the ruse that he had tested positive for COVID-19, according to conspiracy-theorists quoted by bush-telegraph  sources,  President Akufo-Addo must now  fight back, to take full control of his regime, again, from the domineering-hardliners, who have now clearly taken over his presidency, and, rendered  him more or less a lame duck leader, unable to stop even the outrageous prostitution, of the honour of the noble profession of arms, by those of his appointees, who have infiltrated our national security apparatus with myrmidon-thugs, who  are said to be members of private militias belonging to extremist-hardliners in the New Patriotic Party  (NPP), who have been issued military and police uniforms, and who publicly  take their marching orders (to the eternal disgust and shame of the professionals in the police and military), from evil-political-blackguards, deploying them to voters  registration centres, to intimidate voters in opposition strongholds, across Ghana.

In such precipitous moments in our nation's history, all those  appointed by sitting Presidents, as judges of the highest courts in our homeland Ghana, who are women and men of integrity and good conscience, must understand clearly that ultimately,  it is the well-being of the citizenry, as  defined in the human rights guaranteed them, under  the 1992  Constitution,  which ought to influence all the judgements that they pass, when the outcomes of such controversial cases, could embarrass those in governments of the day. Full stop.  Case closed.

In light of all that, we shall all follow such controversial cases, now before judges, to see how they will eventually rule on them - particularly in the case brought against today's  hard-of-hearing regime, which has so foolishly decided to permit the mining of bauxite, in the Atewa Forest Forest Reserve, which  is the watershed of three major river systems that over 5 million Ghanaians depend on, for the potable water sourced from the Densu, Ayensu and Birim rivers for treatment and distribution, to villages,  towns and duties across southern Ghana.

Is that abominable  decision by the current regime not an egregious abuse of their human right to life - since water is life: and not having access to it is literally a death sentence?  We rest our case. Hmmmm, Oman Ghana eyeasem ooooo - enti yewieye paaa enei?  Asem kesie ebeba debi ankasa. Yooooo...

Time To Resolve Ghana's 'Nigeria-Problem' Once And For All?

There is no committed Pan-Africanist, anywhere in the continent of Africa, and in the Diaspora, who doesn't worry about the inability of the continent's only potential global power, Nigeria, to fufill it's potential. Alas, Nigeria  has many secret enemies, who do not want it to become a global power, ever, as part of their strategy of preventing Africa's transformation into a prosperous continent.


In the main, Nigeria is blessed to be a land that  has some of the most intelligent people, anywhere, on the surface of the planet Earth. They are an ambitious, hardworking, and, noted, for being astute in doing business - as well as excelling in many other fields of human endeavour. They are an  asset to the nations they migrate to. Nigeria's GDP figures for 2019, were U.S.$446.543 billion (nominal, est.), and U.S.$1.215 trillion (PPP, est.) Source: World Bank.

Nigerians are invariably assets to the societies of the nations they migrate to. And, over the years, Ghana has had its fair share of such productive, law-abiding and disciplined Nigerians. The Ola Balm factory at the Accra surbub of Bubuashie, is a longstanding example. As we speak, today's generation of Nigerians are also contributing positively to Ghanaian society, in many areas of our national life. 

Above all, for strategic reasons, it is vital that we maintain friendly relations with this longstanding friend, and ally, of ours, in the West African subregion. Figures from the United Nations COMTRADE database on international trade, put the value of goods that  Ghana imported from Nigeria, in 2019, at US$112.29 million. 

If we are to continue maintaining our cordial relationship with Nigeria, it is vital, that the Ghanaian authorities, deal ruthlessly, with the criminal elements amongst the Nigerian community in Ghana. We must clamp down on their lawlessness, and utter disrespect for Ghanaian,  and for our dear Mother Ghana, by ridding ourselves  of them,  swiftly. They are an  evil-pestilence that we must send back to Nigeria, to be dealt with appropriately, there, by the relevant federal authorities.

The recent violent demonstration at the Buduburam Police Station, by some Nigerians protesting against the shooting to death, allegedly, by a police officer, of an apparently unhinged Nigerian, who is said to have waved a machete at police officers at Gomoa Buduburam Camp Liberia's Police Station,  was outrageous in its mindless display of egregious-mob-violence. It is doubtless a harbinger of more to come, as Ghana's December presidential and parliamentary elections approach.  


The  time has now come for us to take a hardline attitude towards all illegal immigrants in our homeland Ghana. Towards that end,  we must demand an immediate revision of the Economic Community of West African States'  (ECOWAS) protocols, on the free movement of citizens,  and ensure that the  new measures we want to see put in place, to deal with cross-border-criminals,  also apply to the free movement of Africans, across the entire continent, now that we are in the new  era of continental free trade.


In an age of terrorism, and global pandemics, we must ensure that exit visas are required for all Africans wanting to travel outside their nations' borders, to settle in sister African states. To  obtain such exit visas, biodata ought to be provided by all travellers, which  must include: details of their health status; DNA samples and criminal records, if any;  as well as tax filing details; fingerprints; digital iris and facial recognition data; educational background;  and verifiable digital addresses.


To deal with the criminal elements, amongst the Nigerian community in Ghana (as well as those from other ECOWAS nations),  compliance detachments from their Immigration Services, and the Criminal Investigations Departments, of their national police services, must be brought to Ghana, to register all Nigerian  (and ECOWAS) citizens in our midst. We must start as soon as practicable,   with the above-mentioned  institutions of state, straight  from the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Enough is enough.  Haaba.

An Open Letter To Hon. Bryan Acheampong, Ghana's National Security Minister - Informing him We Do Not Fear His Myrmidon-Thugs-In-Uniform


Dear Hon. Bryan Acheampong,

I shall begin by restating the core  values, contained in the Mission Statement  (Mission & Values), of the United States of America's National Security Agency/Central Security Service (NSA/CSS). 

"Core Values

  • Commitment to Service - Knowing that the country, our friends and allies are relying on us, we are dedicated to fulfilling our commitment to serve and to excellence in the pursuit of our critical mission. 
  • Respect for the Law - Everything we undertake in our missions is grounded in our adherence to the U.S. Constitution and compliance with the U.S. laws, regulations and policies that govern our activities.
  • Integrity - We are committed to communicating honestly and directly, acting ethically and fairly and carrying out our mission efficiently and effectively.
  • Transparency - We are committed to fostering public understanding of NSA's mission and to providing complete transparency to those who authorize and oversee NSA's work on behalf of the American people.
  • Respect for People - We are committed to ensuring that all NSA personnel are respected, included and valued for their diverse backgrounds, experiences, skills and contributions to our mission and culture.
  • Accountability - We are accountable for our actions and take responsibility for our decisions, practicing wise stewardship of public resources and placing prudent judgment over expediency."

The question, which the good people of Ghana, who put the national interest, ahead of party advantage, in all things to do with the safety of our Republic, and the overall well-being of the citizenry, would like you to answer,  is:  As a God-fearing, principled, honest father and husband, said to be an American military Gulf War veteran,  do you believe that you have abided by the  core values of the United States of America's National Security Agency/Central Security Service (NSA/CSS), in your work as a national security minister, who has served Ghana at the Ministry of National Security, and, lately, in the Ministry of interior?


There are many discerning, apolitical and independent-minded Ghanaians,  who insist that had you done what you have been accused, by many, of doing, in Ghana, in the U.S. -  allegedly conspiring with others, to  pack the national security apparatus, with members of privately-owned militias, apparently belonging to hardliners in the New Patriotic Party  (NPP), the Invincible Forces, and the Delta Force - you would have been swiftly arrested, prosecuted and given a lengthy prison sentence, for subversion and treason. 

Perhaps that is a moot point - so I shall not belabour it, as in my humble view, you would never qualify to be appointed to the position you hold here, in the U.S., which is a much more serious nation, than our country is, as we speak. However, you definitely must be arrested, prosecuted and jailed for treason - which is what your conspiracy with others in your party, to pack the national security apparatus of our country, with those myrmidon-thugs-in-uniform, amounts to. Full stop. When I become President in 2025, after winning the 2024 presidential election, as an independent candidate, I shall immediately order your arrest and prosecution, for sure. That  is a promise, not a threat.


Sir, perhaps it has never occurred to you before, that you and Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, are not the only Agyemangs in our nation, today. Massa, where were you, when even the mere whispering of the name J.J. Rawlings,  invoked fear in petrified-millions? To use a Ghanaian pidgin English phrase: 'Small boys, are young, wai.'  Hmmmm, eyeasem, ooooo. 


With respect, do not delude yourselves into thinking that you enjoy  perpetual-immunity, oooo, Massa. You do not. If you persist in the thuggery across Ghana, which we are all  witnessing daily, as the registration of voters continues,  should the need to do so arise, because it is repeated in the December presidential and parliamentary elections, we  shall eventually drag you and your co-conspirators, before the International Criminal Court  (ICC),  one fine day, for the crimes against humanity, which you are committing.  We will not be intimidated.  Period. 


For  your information, the Tommy Thompsons, the Kabral Blay-Amiheres, the Kwesi Pratts and the Kweku Baakos, risked their lives, in the trenches, during the dark days of the era of the culture-of-silence - and, despite the great odds they faced, relentlessly fought a ruthless tyranny, to finally help deliver to ordinary  Ghanaians,  the freedoms they enjoy, today: freedoms that you and  your co-conspirators, clearly seek to take away,  from those who oppose  your discredited regime-of-greedy-hypocrites, in the new tyranny-of-the-majority, which you and your co-conspirators,  are so clearly  bent on imposing on our country, through intimidatory-tactics.  How dare you, I ask?


And, worst of all, how dare you prostitute the honour of the brave professionals,  in the Ghana Armed Forces, and the Ghana Police Service, by clothing your myrmidon-thugs, in their service uniforms, and making them appear to the world, in viral videos gone global, as 'soldiers' and police officers',  who clearly  are mindless-minions, who take  their marching orders from illiberal-blackguards,  who also happen to be local NPP executives? How dare you?


With respect, some  us are determined  to resist your attempt to impose a tyranny-of-the-majority, on our nation of diverse ethnicity, in which no tribe is superior or inferior to another, and in which virtually all extended families, share a common bond  of diverse-ethnicity, and are united, by marriage and ties of consanquinity. Under no circumstances will we allow you to destroy our tolerant liberal democracy, just because you and your despicable friends have become arrogant and
power-drunk.  No. No. No. Never.  We are not afraid of your brutish thugs-in-uniform - because only cowards die many times before their actual deaths. We are not cowards, wai. And neither are we afraid of being murdered by your thugs, oooo, Massa.  Enough is enough. Full stop. Haaba.

Has Asset-Stripping The Enterprise Ghana Become An NPP Addiction?

To use a Ghanaian pidgin English phrase: Massa, one day, one day, all those who bent the rules and used their positions to make possible the asset-stripping of our nation  now going on, will pay dearly, for the crimes against humanity, which  such egregious abuse of power, and abuse of office, amount to, and represent.  Yooooo...

Ditto the New Patriotic Party (NPP) regime-fatcat-cronies acquiring national assets, which Nkrumah's government acquired for all Ghanaians (and paid full compensation for), for a song, on  top, too - also paying dearly, for asset-stripping the enterprise Ghana, after I become Ghana's leader, in January 2025, after winning the December 2024 presidential election, as an independent candidate. Yoooo...

Today, when COVID-19 has shown so clearly that we need television stations,  such as the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation  (GBC), which can be used to carry school lessons,  to homes across Ghana, to educate our offspring and wards, forced to stay at home  now, and in future, by the many predicted pandemics (which the bioweapons labs of the militaries of the US, Russia, China and a host of other nations, are preparing to unleash on humankind, as and when desired, to keep us plebs perpetually enslaved), you would think that the arrogant and empty headed too-clever-by-half power-drunk genius-idiots, now governing us,  would have the sense not to short-change those families nationwide, which cannot afford data for accessing the Internet, but have television sets aplenty, to tune in to, for those selfsame online lessons. 

Those NPP members, who are now busy backstabbing President  Akufo-Addo  (who some crazy conspiracy-theorists insist has been shunted aside, temporarily, under the ruse of COVID-19 self-isolating, to enable greed-filled egregious-wrong-doing by party hardliners, to proceed apace), must understand clearly that there will be consequences for their actions, because Ghanaians most certainly did not elect the narcissistic  and pretentious Ursula Owusu Akufuls and Kwadjo Oppong Nkrumahs, to power, to come and  sell off  valuable assets belonging  to the only public broadcaster, the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation's (GBC), which also happens to be the sole media entity currently upholding our diverse cultural heritage, by making its airwaves available to virtually all Ghana's ethnic groups,  not just Akans, to showcase their values and cultures. No. No. No.

Such local-content programming, is often  shunned by virtually  all our many privately-owned media houses, which are invariably   guided  by the dreadful  greed-is-the-name-of-the-game corporate-ethos, which  drive their programming that is full of mind-numbing foreign soap operas, and local-carbon-copies of successful foreign television  programmes.

Those privately-owned  electronic media entities,  cannot, and must never be compared to Ghana's only public service broadcaster, in terms of institutional memory,  by the bean counters, who say GBC loses money, simply to justify their hidden agendas. That is a classic philistine-approach, which is always used  by our vampire-élites, to justify the unjustifiable sale of priceless state assets, to regime-cronies.

What a greedy and stupid-short-sighted-lot,  so many  of the NPP bigwigs have turned out to be, despite their arrogant posturing. Yes, speaking personally, I support President Akufo-Addo 100 percent,  but I am now praying that most of his party's MPs, are turfed out from Parliament, in the December polls, so as to halt a Mark11, of  the  never-ending asset-stripping of our country, by his greedy party members, who never seem to be satisfied, and certainly don't know when to stop, either -  because looting Mother Ghana has now clearly become an NPP addiction. Enough is enough. Haaba.

Who Allowed The Rezoning Of The Department of Parks And Gardens' Cantonments HQ Land - To Enable The Construction Of Yet Another Accra Office Building?


Who Allowed The Rezoning Of The Department of Parks And Gardens' Cantonments HQ Land - To Enable The Construction Of Yet Another Accra Office Building?


In the COVID-19 era, when what is needed nationwide, are more green arboreal open spaces, to provide oxygen-laden fresh air, to fill our lungs with, and boost our immune systems, too, in a capital city whose air-quality is steadily deteriorating, why has the government of President Akufo-Addo, allowed the Cantonmemts land belonging to the Department of Parks and Gardens to be surreptitiously rezoned from green civic use, to exclusive civic use, to allow its regime-fatcat-cronies to put up up yet another high-rise office building in what is now a concrete jungle with poor air-quality, Ghana's capital city, of Accra?
If we continue to stand aloof - because we are not suffering any of the deprivations most Ghanaians are going through, and most of which can be traced directly to the insider-dealing engaged in by corrupt state officials, and sundry crooked appointees of the President,who invariably disregard conflict-of-interest situations, in order to participate in the asset-stripping of our nation - we will continue seeing abominations, such as the rezoning of the Cantonments land, on which the headquarters building of the Department of Parks and Gardens, was built, to facilitate the construction of yet another high rise office building, in Acrra.


That is why the time has now come for all Ghana's apolitical, patriotic and dedicated Pan-Africanists, who are also discerning individuals, to enter the fray personally, and become active politically, to help turf out the mostly-dishonest and incompetent politicians, who, when in opposition, like to give the false impression to Ghanaians that they will be true servant-leaders, if voted into power, and go on to eradicate corruption in Ghana. Sounds familiar?




Is that not the broken-record-hit-song, which the NPP/NDC duopoly's constituent entities' members, sing in unison, and dance to, whenever in opposition? And, when in power, do they not suddenly grow wings, and become insufferable, and act as if they think they are God's gift to humanity, and the lords-and-masters, of ordinary Ghanaians?



Who would ever have thought that that dreadful example, of the perfidy of our vampire-élites, which the environmental activists in the Eco-Conscious Citizens group, are struggling to halt, by challenging the rezoning of land belonging to the Department of Parks and Gardens, in the Cantonments area, would occur, in a government led by a President Akufo-Addo, I ask?



Finally, the question that all lovers of nature in Ghana must ponder over is: Who are the wealthy and well-connected promoters, who have surreptitiously succeeded in getting all the signatures of highly-placed public servants, needed to enable the Cantonments land, on which the demolished national headquarters building of the Department of Parks and Gardens was located, to be rezoned, from green civic land use, to exclusive civic land use, by the La Dade Kotopon District Assembly's Spatial Planning Committee, and Greater Accra Regional Lands Commission, to enable them build yet another high rise office building in the concrete jungle that is Ghana's capital city, today? Did they bribe their way through officialdom, to achieve the sefish bugger-the-rest-of-Ghanaians, ends they sought? Eeiii, Oman Ghana, eyeasem ooooo - enti yewieye paaa enei? Asem kesie ebeba debi ankasa. Hmmm. Yooooo.

A Quick Note To My Texas Sister-In-Christ, Brenda Thonsgaard Odhiambo - Now Grieving For The Loss Of Her Colleague, Mike Ray

May the soul of your retired college teaching colleague, Mike Ray,  who just passed away,  rest in peace, sister-in-Christ. Yes, it is so hard when someone special leaves us. I still miss my late dear wife, the brilliant and gifted dress designer,  Christiana Amihere,  terribly, too, for example.

Alas, not a day passes without me regretting her loss - and mulling over the many things that I want to say to her, to show my appreciation of her patience: and her amazing capacity to calm me down, whenever someone raised my ire, which I never got round to saying to her, while she was alive, and well.

Sister-in-Christ,  do accept our condolences. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you,  and to Mike's surviving family. A place in heaven surely awaits him - where he will rest in the bosom of the Lord God Almighty.

The reality for all of us - every single human being in our one biosphere, today, as we speak  -  is that we will eventually undertake that final journey out of this world,  too, alas. For sure.

That  is how the human condition - which by definition is a journey-in-transition through many unchartered waters  to the next world - is  programmed to play out by our Maker. We must all endeavour to live lives of equanimity and magnanimity, for that reason.  Wish you well as always, dearest sister-in-Christ. And, do stay safe!

A Quick Note To Ohemaa Sena Akagbor - Who Loves Posh Well-Built Racing Bicycles

Ohemaa Sena Akagbor, yes, I see your point: The hardworking Eugene Kofi Boakye-Yiadom's  competitive nature takes over when he gets on his bike - at which point he takes no prisoners.  But when he gets off his bike, his  real soft-hearted nature then resurfaces, and the vanquished are soothed, and loving friendships quickly restored.

Haaba, Ohemaa, let us not forget that he is human too, oooo  - so that display of steel, when in competitive mode, is perfectly okay, and understandable. This after all, is the planet Earth.  Saints, as you are well aware, live only in heaven - where he is headed for, wirhout doubt, when he undertakes his final bike trip on the planet Earth: which he is doing so much to protect as Ghana's foremost green entrepreneur. Cool.

Yesterday, we suffered terribly, from having to breathe badly polluted air, all  day long, caused by the exhaust fumes of countless vehicles using the dirt road, in front of where  we currently live, at the Gomoa Buduburam State Housing Company's estate, as a shortcut to get past Buduburam, and back on to the Accra-Cape Coast highway, again, which actually  made us feel quite ill.

It also made me appreciate the fact that fresh oxygen-laden air, is always available for Accra's residents, in and  around the environs of the  Legon Botanical Gardens,  because our country has green entrepreneurs like Kofi, to  leverage and transform available  natural capital  -  making oxygen from trees available to humans, while  creating wealth that remains locally,  and fulfilling jobs for young people.

Finally, speaking personally,  I owe that lovely and kind-hearted gentleman, a lot, oooo, Ohemaa. It so happens that there is a document in existence, which indicates that he is going to make sure that my donated body, quickly gets to the Anatomy Department, of the University of Ghana Medical School, when I die. So be careful what you say about my favourite nephew, oooo, Ohemaa. Hmmmm,  I might take you to Antoa Nyame, wai. Yooooo...

A Quick Note To The Brilliant Jonathan Tourzan - Who Posts Progressive And Commonsensical Comments On Facebook

Spot on, Jonathan Tourzan. Speaking as an ignoramus, when it comes to economic issues,  does that not also refer to  what is called the socialisation of private risk? No?

And, ever thought of how  national economies in the global south would probably boom, were  base-of-the-pyramid-demographic families, and individuals, to be given substantial, bailout-taxpayer-sums to  purchase homes, or major ticket items, such as farmlands, with?

Furtheremore, could they not repay same, over say 50 years, in agreed monthly  installments -  which will be whatever those concerned can afford to pay as 'rent', for each succeeding generation, until it is repaid after the fifth decade, I ask? Would definitely make for inclusive societies in many emerging nations, one suspects. No?

Additionally, would that not also evolve into  well-provisioned-income-sources, for some longterm impact-investment  funds, subscribed to by patient-investors? Funny how when the rich and powerful get taxpayer-handouts, it is given respectability, and stripped of moral-hazard-arguments,   by being categorised as 'bailouts'. Wonders. Yet, when such taxpayer funds are directed to societies' marginalised, worldwide, they miraculously end up being labeled detrimental-and-economy-wrecking-socialism. Interesting what is in a name. Thanks for sharing, Jonathan.  Cool.

Is The Selection Of Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyeman A Harbinger Of The New Kind Of Politics To Come - One in Which Only Ideas And Issues Are Contested?

The unfortunate and disrespectful references, made by the Asanti Regional chairperson, of  the  New Patriotic Party's (NPP), Bernard Antwi-Boasiako,  to the person of the just-selected vice presidential candidate, of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyeman, are  typical examples of the  misogynistic society, we live in, in  Nkrumah's Ghana, today, sadly. 

Otherwise, how would that uncouth and vile semi-literate, have the nerve to be so disrespectful, to one of the most brilliant, capable  and  distinguished of our country's many world-class university vice chancellors, over the years, I ask?

Alas, the loudmouthed and uncouth Bernard Antwi-Boasiakos, are the type of arrogant criminal-types, whose wealth from dubious sources, now enable them to dominate most of our nation's political parties - a majority of which have ended up becoming  criminal organisations, in all but name: which have evolved into  stealth-conduits, for the  laundering of  off-ledger cash, used to fund  party operations, all year round.

That occassions some food for thought, dear reader: If the Ghanaian nation-state, funded political parties, and prohibited private individuals, and business entities, from funding political parties, would a super-wealthy, nouveau riche fool and ruthless-blackguard, like Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, be allowed anywhere near  even the smallest constituency ward office, of any political party in Ghana - let alone succeed in climbing up to the top of the greasy-pole of Ghanaian politics, to become a regional chairperson? One doubts that very much.

Finally, we shall rest our case,  here, by congratulating Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyeman, on her historic selection to be the running mate, of the presidential candidate of the NDC,  former President John Dramani Mahama. Notice is served to all the idiots ruining the good name of our country, by soiling it's global reputation as a peaceful and stable Africsn democracy, in which the rule of law prevails, that her selection is the  harbinger of the new kind of politics, which, thank God, we will soon see coming into play, in our beloved homeland - one in which only the  decent and principled, debating ideas and issues, not trading personal insult, can rise to the top of political parties. Full stop. Haaba.

Why Kofi Thompson Will Win The Presidency In 2024

"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
You have to trust in something—your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."
                                  - Steve Jobs

When galamsayers invaded part of our 14-square mile  freehold Akyem Juaso upland evergreen rainforest property, a promising future for P. E.Thompson Farms & Commodity Exports Limited, the legal vehicle our family  had set up, to realise our dreams for transforming the fringe-forest cocoa-farming communities in that section of the Atewa Range, had to be discarded.

Instead of destroying our dreams, that abominable story surrounding what was an  environmental-apocalypse, which occurred during the Mahama-era,   now drives a noble dream to selflessly  lead Ghana in 2024.

We are determined to end the egregious destruction of Ghana's  priceless  natural heritage, nationwide - and protect what is  incredibly valuable natural capital,  which  ought to be seen by all discerning Ghanaians, as the bedrock for a green people-and-planet economic future that will ensure a good quality of life for all our people, post-COVID-19: for which reason we must save our remaining forest reserves, at all costs, to ensure our nation's future well-being, and stability. Nothing will stop us!

A Quick Note To Hajia Tenneh Kamara - Of The Gomoa Buduburam Camp Liberia Refugee Settlement

Good morning,  

My daughter, one gathers that you have now taken the needed steps to safeguard the goods in your first shop - bang opposite the St. Gregory Catholic Hospital, in Gomoa Buduburam's Camp Liberia refugee settlement area. Bravo.

That will finally protect your stocked provisions, and other products, from the elements, when it rains,  and invariably ends up with you having to throw away goods, which  you purchased with your hard-earned money, and margins on which, would have helped you take good care, of all your young children.

May Allah Almighty bless and protect you, and your lovely children.  As I always tell you, trust no human being, but have faith in Allah Amighty. He will never let you down - and will defeat all those who are jealous of your success, and daily scheme against you.  Above all, do take to wearing facial masks, when serving the public,  in both your two shops, my daughter.  I am very proud of all of you!

You are living proof that most of the  Liberian refugees,  who have opted to be integrated into Ghanaian society, are real assets for Mother  Ghana - and that most of them can, and will, contribute positively, to Nkrumah's Ghana, if assisted financially, to establish their own micro-enterprises.  Kudos to you - and, above all, let me reiterate this point again: do stay safe,  as COVID-19 is an existential threat, to all of us, and is no respector of persons!

A Quick Note To Hon. Baah - Of The Facebook Group: Friends Of Bryan Acheampong

Dear Hon. Baah,

Let me begin by pointing it out to you, that President Akufo-Addo (God Almighty  bless and protect him from his own treacherous crowd of party-insiders),  admonished Ghanaians - who are already citizens, please note - to be active citizens,  not spectators.  

In one's humble view, it is important that Ghanaians get that inspirational-phrase right -  for there actually is a world of difference, between being 'citizens not spectators' and being 'active citizens,  not spectators ', wai, Massa. Haaba. We must learn to write and speak English properly in a globalised world - if we are to be competitive in the Ghana beyond aid, which we are all working towards. Hopefully. But I digress.

It is one's prayer -  as a patriotic citizen,  who loves Mother Ghana passionately - that the gung-ho Bryan Acheampongs that you lot fawn over,  will come to understand,  clearly, before it is too late,  that the vital job of ensuring the safety of our Republic, is a professional one, for principled individuals, who understand  that the national interest, not party advantage, is what will always  secure our nation and ensure its stability. Yooooo...

Packing our secret services with myrmidon-thugs, from the  private militias,  of ruthless party hardliners, is one of the most egregious and unfortunate acts of disloyalty, by any elected   politician,  to his or her nation, when appointed by the President. Truth be told,  it is undermining our nation's security, terribly, sadly. Pity.

Is it any surprise, therfore, Hon. Baah,  that what was a massive intelligence failure, the recent  demolition of a property belonging to the Nigerian High Commission, happened under the noses of those appointed, in good faith, by Prssident Akufo-Addo, to ministerial positions, supposedly empowering them to prevent such relationship-destroying negative-events (with the potential to permanently  damage our relationship, with a key West African ally), from ever occuring?

Massa, the time has now come for someone, in this nation full of hypocrites and sycophants, to tell Bryan Acheampong (who might,  or might not be, an American agent, in the heart of our national security apparatus),  to the face, that he needs to sit up, and do the job that hapless  taxpayers pay him so handsomely, to do, daily, professionally. Haaba.

Thanks.

Yours in the service of Mother Ghana, 

Kofi.

May John Owusu Afriyie's Soul Rest In Peace

It is so sad to learn that the inimitable Chief Executive, of the Forestry Commission, Mr. John Owusu Afriyie,  has passed away, after apparently contracting COVID-19. May his soul rest in peace. Though some of us were critical of his stewardship, of a vital part of our country's priceless natural heritage, this is the time to show our common humanity,  and join his loved ones, to mourn his passing away. 

He has embarked on the final journey,  which, as mere mortals, we must, and, will, all eventually also undertake, individually.  Such is life, alas. At some point,  our lives on earth must come to an end. And that ought to inform the way we  all live our lives.  We must endeavor to live in harmony with our fellow humans, and with Mother Nature. Always.

That is why the message (at this sad time for many of those he interacted with while alive), to all those enriching themselves, today,  destroying our forests, ought to be that they need to pause and reflect - and take cognisance of the fact that they cannot, and will not, take away the filthy lucre, which  they make by destroying our natural capital  base.


Ditto, destroying our hitherto rich biodiversity, precious ecosystems and the watershed  of our streams and river systems, as well as poisoning vast swathes of rural Ghana, in the process, and, endangering the intake-sources of countless water treatment plants, across our homeland Ghana.

Furthermore, the point also  needs to be made that regardless of how we saw Mr. John Owusu Afriyie's  stewardship of our natural heritage, common decency demands that following his sudden death, our  thoughts and prayers should focus on his grieving extended family members,  and his closest friends. We  must commiserate with them at what is obviously a very difficult time for them. They have our heartfelt sympathies. 

For Mother Ghana, and for Mother Nature - as well as for  our younger generations, and their young children's unborn offspring - it is a new fresh-start-opportunity, to start seeing the Forestry Commission for what it actually is, at a time when global climate change is impacting the Ghanaian countryside so negatively.

In light of that, one therefore strongly recommends the CEO of the Legon Botanical Gardens, Mr.  Eugene Kofi Boakye-Yiadom, to President Akufo-Addo, as the most suitable Ghanaian, to be appointed by him, to head the Forestry Commission.

Under the able leadership of Mr. Eugene Kofi Boakye-Yiadom, the Forestry Commission can serve as an important bedrock, for a new green economy, which can create endless wealth  that remains locally, for countless green micro-entrepreuners, and jobs galore, countrywide, for our younger generations.

Although he might probably be unwilling to abandon the Legon Botanical Gardens, Mr. Eugene Kofi Boakye-Yiadom,  has the track-record, to prove that as Ghana's foremost green entrepreneur, he can make a difference for the Forestry Commission's future, as a green economy pillar. But I digress.

May Mr. John  Owusu Afriyie's soul rest in peace. He paid his dues in his own inimitable way - and, in his memory, one says: Sir John,  demerifa duea,  duea, duea. Duea  eni  amanehunu.

Yet Another Quick Note To Volkswagen Ghana

Dear Volkswagen Ghana, 


Thanks for sharing.  Alas, the uncharitable wil say you are being  disingenuous, when you say you are poised to become the e-mobility leader. On my part, I will be charitable, and simply say that your claims are moot.
A majority of the planet Earth's  EV enthusiasts, will probably argue that the world's leading  EV manufacturers, are Tesla and BYD - and that they aren't asleep for you to overtake them any time soon.

Most discerning  and independent-minded green-lifestyle-folk,  in Ghana, asked for their opinion about your claims,  will probably make the point that you can fact-check for yourselves here: https://electrek.co/2019/12/06/tesla-worlds-largest-ev-automaker-byd/. For sure.

But not to worry - this is just the two pesewas of an old fool whose opinions don't count in Ghana,  anyway: but who nonetheless intends to run for the presidency in 2024, and win by a landslide. Mark that too, on a wall somewhere, Volkswagen Ghana. Wish you well. Cool.

Thanks. 

Kind regards,

Kofi.

A Quick Note To Volkswagen Ghana

Dear Volkswagen Ghana,

Thanks for your quick response.  Surprising though it might be to you, Africa will be the first continent in our biosphere, to be powered 100 percent by emission-free, stand-alone off-grid green clean-power, at tariff rates far less than half of today's least expensive tariff rates globally.

Blessed with   continent wide low power tariff rates, it follows, a priori, therefore, that Africa  will be a huge common continental market for EVs -  because Africa's transport sector's players, who are very cost-conscious, and realise the massive  bottom-line-benefits  of EVs, will buy them in droves: to replace their ancient maintenance-trouble-packed internal combustion-engined fleets. 

Do mark that on a wall somewhere  - for I  happen to be aware of a  serendipitous game-changing clean power invention, which will make the world's  fossil-fuel-powered power-generating plants obsolete,  and save humanity from reaching the climate change tipping-point-of-no-return (https://www.modernghana.com/news/962292/why-eric-ingersoll-must-now-tell-the-world-the.html). Wish you well - and do stay safe. Cool.

Thanks.

Kind regards 

Kofi.

A Quick Note To Hon. Evans Opoku Bobie - The Ahafo Regional Minister

Dear Hon. Opoku Bobie,

I shall go straight to the point: One can understand your desire to be re-elected as the MP for the parliamentary constituency, which you currently represent in Parliament. Doubtless, there are many in our nation, who will say that as an active politician that is as it should be. Fair enough.  

However, as a responsible ministerial appointee of President Akufo-Addo's (who, together  with Norway's Prime Minister, Erna Solberg, is co-chairperson of the UN Secretary-General’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Advocates,  please remember), you must never sacrifice any part of our nation's priceless natural heritage, on the alter of personal ambition. Ever.  Full stop.

Not when it means your turning a blind eye to the wanton destruction of a forest reserve, at Dominase, which is apparently near Bediako, in your  parliamentary constituency, at a time when global climate change is impacting our country so negatively - by personally halting the Forestry Commission's 'Operation Halt Task Force', which has been set up to prevent the illegal felling of trees in forests reserves, across Ghana, and curtail the production of chainsaw bushcut lumber, in those selfsame forest reserves. No. No. No.

Hon. Evans Opoku Bobie, you must understand clearly that it is your duty, as a ministerial appointee of President Akufo-Addo's,  to think creatively, about the provision of jobs, for your constituents, by creating new green economy micro-entrepreunerual  opportunities, for the brightest and best, amongst the younger generations,  in your constituency.


Sir, have  you forgotten that you are an appointee of  a president, who is an honourable and decent gentleman, who also happens to be personally committed to, and  passionate, about the protection of Mother Nature - particularly from greed-filled gang-raping-predators, such as those constituents of yours, whom you apparently think must be given carte-blanche-leeway, to desecrat forest reserves in your constituency? 

The question you ought to ponder over is: Why champion the abomination, which  the destruction of our nation's natural capital, across vast swathes of the Ghanaian countryside,  represents, as an Akufo-Addo appointee? 

To avoid the fate that awaits you, should your egregious interference in the work of the Forestry Commission's task force be brought to the attention of President Akufo-Addo, here is some free consultancy for your benefit, Hon. Evans Opoku Bobie.


At a time of global climate change, it is imperative for all Ghanaian politicians, in areas where there are forest reserves, to understand clearly that the only way to achieve all the UN SDGs in their constituencies, is to provide alternative livelihood programmes, which will  make fringe-forest communities prosperous. Simple.

Consequently, one strongly recommends industrial hemp plantations for all  such fringe-forest communities, to grow for export. It might interest a such MPs, and concerned environmental activists, across Ghana, to know that a 100-acre industrial hemp farm, earned a staggering US $56 million, for it's Diasporan Ghanaian residing in Portugal, and his partners there, not too long ago.  That is the smoothest path,  to rural wealth creation, and jobs galore, which all sensible and farsighted politicians must choose to tread on. Cool.

Thanks.

Yours in the service of Mother Ghana.
