Greedy Ghanaian lawyers destroying Mother Ghana: hmmm, 3y3nsem piiii, oooo, Ghanafuor

Dear critical-reader, is the question that as wise and aspirational Africans we must ponder over not: Why is no one in Ghana still publicly not asking who exactly are the lawyers who were amongst  the professional advisors paid handsome fees to  betray Mother Ghana, in the latest particularly egregiously one-sided lithium mining  deal?

Ditto who exactly were the lawyers who helped draft all the  daft oil agreements that should all be torn up, by the next government, after it assumes power in January, 2025 - because they are all unconscionable partnership agreements, secured by big brown envelope kickbacks distributing lobbyists, without a shadow of doubt?

With the greatest respect,  that is why a case  must  be filed in the law  courts, swiftly, on behalf of Mother Ghana (against all the foreign oil companies that have cheated our nation for so long, using the so-called hybrid oil agreements), so as to enable our next leaders tear  up what are unconscionable oil and gas agreements, after January 2025. Full stop.  A word to the wise...

That said,  perchance, is that why the foreign oil companies that  own blocks in the Jubilee oil fields, rushed to meet with President Mills, after he won power and succeeded President Kufuor in January 2009,  and informed  him  that  they were happy and  willing, to give legal fronts acting for him personally, small percentages, in their oil blocks?

If only President Mills had had the presence of mind, at that material  time, and  ordered their immediate arrest in his office,  instead of subsequently complaining bitterly to the then US ambassador to Ghana afterwards, at that material time, perhaps high level corruption wouldn't have become so rampant and pervasive that the current cohort of greed-filled big-thieves-in-high-places, who now dominate our byzantine system, wouldn't have ended  up bankrupting Nkrumah's resource-rich Ghana, because borrowing money enriched them at society's expense, and enabled them send their personal net worth to  stratospheric heights,  oooo, Ghanafuor. Yooooooo...

Finally, dear critical-reader,  could  our nation not have secured production sharing agreements, instead of the daft so-called hybrid production sharing model foisted on us by wily and canny super-corrupt foreign oil companies - whereby such  foreign oil companies would self-finance the entirety of the expensive cash-guzzling process of the  exploration and drilling of oil deposits, and subsequently be repaid by Ghana,  with barrels of oil, for the privilege of so doing. Could we not  also refined the oil here in Ghana, ourselves, too, l ask, Ghanafuor? Would we have been led into the predicament of importing crappy refined fuel products, in an opaque 'gold-for-oil' deal with Emerati domiciled entities run from the shadows by boastful rogues,   exposed by Al Jazeera investigators, as grifters-supreme,  similarly  ripping-off our Zimbabwean cousins, too? As for some notorious Ghanian lawyers in Oman Ghana paaaa, diiyi3, tweaaaaa...
