Happy new year, Peter the Great. Very interesting topic you have chosen to comment on, today: Hypocrisy. Alas, our beloved homeland Ghana, is a two-faced-society, built on the quicksand-of-hypocrisy. That phenomenon, is the miasma that envelopes our country, and is exemplified by the thoroughly-corrupt, and amoral, institution, known as Chieftaincy - the last bastion of inherited forked-tongue-speaking, tribal-supremascist-privilege: a veritable road-block to transforming Ghana into a meritocracy.
As most discerning Ghanaians are aware, India's clever nationalist leaders, understood clearly, that the greatest enemy of meritocracy, is inherited privilege - and decided, when they finally got rid of the British occupiers of their nation, in 1947, to clip the wings of their Maharajahs, by gradually stripping them, of all their powers. Prime Minister Indira Ghandi, completed that vital strategic-task, in 1972.
Consequently, today, incredibly, India has overcome the poverty-of-millions, which once held her back, from progressing, and prospering, and is now a global power, economically and militarily.
Sadly, meanwhile Ghana, is still held back, by the power weilded by the many respectable-looking thieves-in-high-places, ruthlessly milking her dry, through massive high-level corruption: many of them direct descendants of the precolonial ruling-élites, our sodden hypocritical Chiefs, of today. Hmmm, Oman Ghana - eyeasemo, oooo. Enti yewieye paaa enei? Asem kesie, bi, ebeba debi ankasa, oooo. Yoooooo...
