kweku ONE live!

Pal,
i have the feeling this january of 2009 is the month in which i've written most since embarking on this blog journey with 'sincere-folly' secured under my ampit... but i'm not bothered... so a second blog today...

meanwhile pal, i've heard one of the sweetest news making the rounds in Ghana and wherever else on this same earth!!

Kweku Baaku (Baaku in Twi means 'one' or???) aslo known NOW as Malik is charging that he would let Konadu the beloved wife of the one RAW(lings) JJ of former times meet her at CHRAJ... and i think it's one of the most beautiful things ever to happen to this artificial creation by man called Ghana! (read here)

why not??? pal, i wish one day my wife would continue to look as elegant and smart and sweet and 'witchy-in-bed' (wiches charm right?...charming...!) long into her old age like Mrs. RAW(lings) but man, I have always thought that Konadu if for nothing at all messed up big time once the term 'conflict of interest' makes meaning at all.

How can you a wife of a so called Junior Jesus 'almost' (if not exactly) of an "all-dirt-cleaning-revolutionary" era bring yourself to such state of affairs where you end up buying state property claiming that it was put on tender??? tender my... well, one-half-of-my ass...! (what other word pal???)...

and i don't care pal if the constitution of Ghana even allows such transactions... i'm talking "advantage and fair-play" here for all who come preaching righeousness into my non-isreali-automatic-supporting-obama EARS... and woman Konadu can never free herself from my charge... she's guilty of that... and for that she must be exposed and for that i'm in full support of Kweku ONE (Baaku) the Malik... and really this is some action of mine that is really rare these days because i've come to see that Kweku the Malik ONE has become nonsensically partisan it's almost an insult to ones like me who saw him a hero against the days of RAWlings... but everyman surely has a sweet side see pal...

however beautiful pal, whenever i reassure myself with stuff like this then i can't help but admit that the likes of ONE Kweku are just a "HUGE-gigantic BIGGGGGGG" shame to the high calls of journalism... but that's besides the point here...

when Kufuor also of the former times decided to let Konadu go "just like that" without any reasons to us tax-payers, i got mad at Kufuor. meanwhile, Konadu Nana was all over the place talking yabri-yabri, yibri-yab... i did not see why our tax should be used by him to score cheap political point in the name of a so called reconcilliation effort after all the commission for reconcilliation or whatever they called it... how do people understand reconcilliation pal at all??? is it about dishing out our resources on our behalf to percieved or 'manufactured' enemies for free??? Last time i checked too, Kufuor said the bogus awards he dished out were for reconcilliation... o m g!!!

so it was under Kufuor that court action was initiated against Konadu alright on our behalf... sweet one, but pal, to be frank the play out of the executive in this particular case leaves much to be desired... i'm very convinced that other than seeking justice on behalf of the people, some few thought either they could score cheap/expensive political capital out of it or that they were just out there to play foolish...ignoring the fact that our taxes were at stake...

The whole Konadu-Caridem saga is bunch of shit that i want clarified and if she's found guilty she must pay for it... i have already found her guilty in my own court of law for 'conflict of interest'!!! i don't have the luxury of time to waste pal... because i felt this way before finding out that even Clinton could not enjoy pay which she took part in passing for her current office under Obama (and that is even a written regulation... mine is what you call 'whatever' be it that nothing in our constitution or laws debars such clear unfair advantage-taking...

therefore i say to Malik the ONE, never let up man, let's fight this to the full... and i only hope that you Kweku would use logic instead of foolish personal dislike/hatred...

may sanity prevail pal...

national 'jerico' day

Pal,

what is this thing about the 1st of February my month of birth being designated by man Mills as a day for all to go down on our knees in supplication to the most high God that we will receive reconciliation from above the skies???

I know Ghanaians are so religious to the extent that some women of an AGLOW or so would gather when it's announced that Ghana has found oil and cry out loud... "thank GAAAAAAAAAAAAAD (it was the sound of the letter 'A' pal) for oil"

Some time back too when authorities of the then Ghana Airways could not find any more logic they decided to organise prayers for the then airline with whatever hope....

and here we are today and Mills man want's us to join him to pray for reconcilliation??? well, not a bad thing to pray for, but i think it's bogus to call us all to gather for this exercise... i won't be there Mills and i want to scream that into your ears!

reconcilliation won't drop from above the skys or wherever some heaven is... what we ought to do is to work to achieve reconcillation... work and work hard... you must reach across the political divide to your rivals... you should have called man Nana Akufo-Addo (man me think doesn't promote unity enough) by now and let us all have full insight or hint of such a move... you should have long condemned attacks on npp folks by ndc folks and do same for npp folks who attack ndc folks. you should have done these with clear pointers that we are all Ghanaians (if you won't admit human beings with a global view beyond your artificial borders!) and that every Ghanaian life is important... you should have asked for an inquiry into the so called npp-refugees saga by now...

so all these funny acts of 'national day of prayer' or whatever would yield nought if serious steps are not taken by you the most powerful of all Ghanaian citizens to heal true and percieved wounds... i've been seeing too much of folks who should be at work gathering during peak hours claiming to be praying in the bushes of Achimota and other places like 'Jerico' for 'Jerico hour' on the spintex road... the last thing i want to see now, man Mills is a gathering of able-bodied men and women gathered by you to a national jerico hour! after all what does the bible on which you 'mis-swore' your oath of office not say about faith and work...???

meanwhile, the last time I checked Ghana is supposed to be a secular state and not one bound by any religion... so just keep your faith to yourself and the synague pastor now! else let's have days for all the other believes as well including Antoa-Nyama and Nogokpo and Barhai and Hinduism and ....and... and not just Christianity and Islam...

let us work towards reconcilliation..

cheers pal!

MAN THINK; WOMAN too!

***i just chanced on this thinking man***

pal dear,

i've not written a poem in a long time... and so i find the following piece very inspiring for that part of me... however i must tell you that this poem is one that is coming out of me trying to question my very self and in so doing questioning society at large as to why we wait (for what?)... i believe that many of our problems are self-inflicted and if only we would spend a little time to 'look into the mirrors of life"... pause and THINK..., then perhaps we would realise that "there's nothing new under the sun" as we are told...

well, i'm not a good commentator of my own poems... i have long realised that.... so just know that the following poem is inspired out of questions i started asking again (i've long been asking these though) after Tsatsu Tsikata spoke at the Du Boi Centre in Accra after getting his bail (which bail i need further education on- amidst all the conflicting legal tales- as to how come after the presidential pardon..., but that's not the point here anyway!)... so in a sense it's a follow-up on my previous posting titled tsatsu the ant... (especially so because i'm not sure i make much sense in that prose).

pal, enjoy!_________

you
my fellow MAN of old,

should you
wait for the sunset
before you know
there'll surely come the sunrise?

should you
escape the reality
of your own breath
find comfort
in a lazy chair
with a glass of red-wine in hand...

and so
take for granted
the root causes
and
THINK
that the solution
lies in just bombing
the one holding
the gun of terror??

have we not fought
with bows and arrows
clubs and machetes
stones...

with sub-atomic forces and gases
have we not fought with guns and bullets
for so long?

and you
my fellow WOMAN of hope,

must you
wait for the birth of one Obama
before you know that
half-of-a-BlackMan president
is possible in the 'US of A'??

should you
not open your mind
to explore the vastness
of the human spirit?

must you first be jailed without justice
before you know
that others have long suffered injustice

must you become the victim
before you know
you must fight
to prevent the situation?

must you?
should you?

must you
wait for the rainfall

thunder storm...

must you
wait for the sunshine?

_________________

ok now pal, i want you to not forget that really people do think afterall... in fact we've been thinking about all sorts of things... be they true or imaginary... see below and enjoy still...

hehehehe!

tsatsu the ant

dear pal,

a lot of things are happening more quickly than the processing power of my tiny brain let alone the the dance of my lazy typing fingers on a keyboard...,

pal, the Ga language does have a word 'tsatsu' which means 'ant' (the animal? or insect!)... the above photo gives you an almost red collour of a typical ant in some greenish background. mind you pal, the ant is said to be a social insect!! and so why do i bother you with all these??? well why not keep your mind off the personality i'm going to talk about and just focus 'small' on the core issues i raise "herein hereafter" (hehehehehe)!!!

so Tsatsu has been granted bail alright as per his fight for justice after Kufuor decided to exercise power of pardon to release him... interesting times still... coincidences do happen huh or do they???

whatever be the course of the forces that spin this world, if i were man Tsatsu, i would have also rejected with more beautiful words the pardon of Kufuor.... in any case i have always said that our constitution is a bogus one and one of the reasons i think so is because it gives such powers to a (and note the letter 'a') president!!!

the law:
willfully causing financial loss to the state, that law i have already said is a vague law that needs to be scrapped before we all get crazy if at least i am not already... but then sure if man 'thieves' our resources then man must be made to face the law but not this 'too discretional' law me think... it is a LAZY LAW man! very LAZY!!!

i believe that if we are to apply this law to the letter then all all us must be in jail because i believe we've all done things and i mean things that could be termed easily by some lazy one as causing financial law 'willfully too' to the state! haaaaaba!

but be it as it may, i and i and i believe with all my heart and with all my might (what a funny word here!), that it is VERY CLEAR that man Tsikata; first was a VICTIM OF POWER INTOXICATION led by Kufuor and the fake human rights activist Nana Akufo-Addo... Secondly, i (and the other i) believe that man Tsikata did not get a fair trial under all the so called rule of law which unfairness i believe was juicily demonstrated to a 'soprano-crescendo' on the day of his sentencing to a five year jail term by the trial judge Justice Henrietta Abban in all holiness...

After all that 'gymnastic' display by Justice Abban and subsequent bias pronouncements to paint man Tsatsu as deserving of his jailing by the 'president' Kufuor himself on public/party platforms came the beautiful dance calling for more years for man Tsatsu the Tsikata!!!

awakening...
i note the limitations of man and woman with all respect to those who have come before us on this same earth... but i also note the knowledge man and woman have come to aquire since since since...

so what pal???
so Tsatsu the Tsikata gets bail alright and comes out and he's talking sense and he's talking nonsense too man! man Tsatsu says he's going (as he's already began since going to jail) to seek for just for not only himself but for the many many many many (many times many!) folks who have found themselves in jail unjustly with some being on just an un-ending journey of remand...

so what again pal? so does man Tsikata want me to believe that had he not been to jail he wouldn't have known that such were the foolish conditions of our judicial/penal system??? please spare us this one... well i hope that is not what you mean... but that is what you said... that it was while you were there that you realised all these things and so you have deemed it a duty upon your very self to fight for more justice...

and i say to man Tsatsu... that realisation is a good one for which he could count on a boy like me but the mentality being displayed by him to the effect that one only had to be faced with a particular situation such as this before realising what corrective measures to take for me is a slap on the face and i wish to condemn such an attack on my sensibility with all the my MIGHT...

i find it rather intriguing that man Tsatsu who is tauted so much to be a legal luminary of excellence with almost a needle-edge precission (and again pal, just look again at the photo of the ant above and don't mind my spin on a man i consider personally very very modest by the measure of many worthy scales... still, just focus on the core!) and as one who has been in the legal profession for so long to now come telling me this story... where has he been all these while??? even me, who is so faraway from the legal/penal system by profession have good knowledge that there is a lot of rot in there... and i never need to be jailed to realise this thing... it's just all over the world... it's right there before us all... so where has man Tsatsu been all these while...???

pal, if you wonder what i'm talking about... then my simple case is that if Tsatsu had been really really concerned about the human rights of folks... and if he knows that it's possible to get the wrong man or woman in jail (which knowledge shouldn't be far fetched for a trained lawyer like him), then shouldn't he have been concerned long long ago to at least do a researh to find out what the situation really was if even he could not imagine it being true??? so that it need not take him to be jailed before coming to realise this thing and to now claim to be waging a fight which a boy like me is ever ready to fight along with him to secure the human rights of folks???

so when would we awake to the 'bare faces' of basic principles????

and i make herein a reference to Obama's inaugural speech and i do so not because i think he's the inventer of these principles but just because he too seems to be championing them with an admission by himself that these principles have been around for so long...they are not new... and i quote:
” Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true."

[aside: pal, don't forget as i would usually urge you, to ignore whatever talk about such as patriotism as in the above by Obama since those really are neither here nor there... again, i can serve a country with all clear and sound measures without limiting myself to a limitation such a patriotism.... At worst (and not best) let me be layal and patriotic to the whole of humanity...not any funny borders created by man...]

pal, as i write a lot more other things are happening... i would be telling you my views of the Konadu the RAWlings' sweetheart vs the state very soon as i hope for health and life and breath...

enough said for now...

LET Tsatsu Tsikata be freed, yes...
and let us just be true to basic principles at all times and if we fail to uphold the foundations of fundamental principles then let us just admit such and appologise to all humanity when need be so that humanity is served better... we owe these to ourselves and generations after us... i dare you! and now, just you dare me too??? hehehehehe...

FREE TSATSU TSIKATA now!!!

with a beautiful smile, cheers man!

absurdity of promises

a sweet virgin for you pal

dear pal,

there is the promise of a freshly-ready-to-be-delivered-promptly a never encountered VIRGINITY in all it's glory and prime! but first one must be ready to afford to beat everyone else to the prize! read this.

and then there is the promise of more women ministers to cum (wrong spelling???) by a 40 per cent share of the whole by Mills of Ghana! 40% !!!

i don't know what it all might mean??? just women ON-TOP of affairs??? pal, i seek the scrapping of that ministry for women and children's affairs with the speed of light! no??? what is the purpose of that ministry??? i don't get it with all my naivety! for Yesu's sake find something else for Akua Danua to do man Mills!! is it that women issues can't be addressed with the many socially centered government agencies??? and i don't mean NGO's... what is the department of social welfare meant for??? else Mills, if you won't do the scrapping which obviously you have demonstrated you won't then better have a ministry for the likes of me who have a pair of tenderly-rounded stuff in-between our legs...

so what? is it all about just delivering on promises??? (read here) and i see a funny thing. you promised that you would cut the number of ministries... fine with me... but what??? just because you cut out four including the ministry of Fisheries to the apparent delussion of Gladys Asmah you want me to jump??? how so cheap... look man Mills, i'm not one of those who are crying that you must fulfill all your promises because there are some of the promises i don't find sense in much... therefore, i challenge you to reduce DRASTICALLY the size of government far less than what JJ the RAWlings had... don't think that just because i can count to four less than what Kuffuor offered then i should be all happy for you... nonsense!

and now, i see that the sharp-tongued Ama Benyiwah-Doe is among your ministerial nominations... i must tell you that she's one i definitely never wanted to see as a minister... i know she fought hard for you and so on... but i never voted for you because of Ama Benyiwa-Doe!!! i do not think she can't perform... she might just come out sweet and all juicy... but for orgasm's sake, i hope she does not come screaming at us all like she did to Kweku Baaku (who deserved such screams on many occassions me thing anyway) on PeaceFM. she might be a good campaigner but i can only wait to see... and that she's the minister of your own region where you tried since 2000 to have support you... i can only wait to see... i wait to let her prove me wrong that i can't place her in a category close to characters like Gladys Asmah, Ameley Tagoe and Sheik IC Quaye of immediate past times.... there's seems to be a thin line there...

pal, i urge you not to believe in any promises... cos only time can tell...

just demand what you think is due you!

i demand chage...

cheers!!

the moment

well i just love this picture... so cool!!

(Obama during presidential race)

Pal, the moment....

yes the moment most of the world have been waiting for is finally with us:

Barack Husein Obama is the president of the "US of A": for me, having been almost a minute part of this whole journey since the anouncement of his candidature for the presidential race and with a just a firm believe that this day was only a journey away without wavering on all the stumbling blocks i cannot help but just say that "pictures speak louder than words...." enjoy:

segregation in America....and it's not so long ago (check obama's speech) it's surely been a long journey and it still remains a long journey... but men and women can afford to be hopeful

oath time... and the humbling eyes of a supportive wife...

oath time... and he too like Mills of Ghana did jumble some words there.... but the difference is that the judge let it be recovered so they don't look like robbots like happenned in Ghana!

prez, vice and spouses...

a cool fam

and now like this pinhole view of the innaugural scene.... i would be watching you Obama and i hope you just do as good.... but i tell you i don't like the robotic support for Isreal!!!

meanwhile pal, check out this article on the Obama's innaugural with a look at the situation in Ghana by Kojo Oppon-Nkrumah of JoyFM.... except that you should note that i like usual is not into the patriotic beat of things... trust me (but don't trust me...hehehehe)... one need not be patriotic to any given country before he/she can serve that country with sound principles...let our spirit reach across borders created by man because it's only natural...

let change ring in all the world!

thieving in the name of the law!!!

halleluyah!

pal dear, halleluuuuuuuuuuuu--yah!!!

oneday very soon it would be a law passed by the Ghanaian parliament that all first-borns of families be castrated once well determined that they are male and not female.... and we would be told to accept it because it is the rule of law in a high velocity motion...

so finally the former Kufuor administration has hit us with one of the most mind-blowing packages for former presidents and vice presidents and etc! i'm not lost for words but just read this!!

someone or Kufuor himself wants for him in addition to his salary which he will retire with an exGratia award and as icing on the 'chop-chop' a place on the pension scheme among other lunatic privileges! if this is not madness enough and if you think i'm crying loud abuot nothing then just check what benefits all kinds of former leaders around the world gain from their state! and i don't intend to compare for the sake of it but even the US of A where all sorts of 'stolen'-human-resources lie bare at their feet they don't resort to such idiocy!!! we are told that bush security after office for example will last for only ten yrs!

i have personally always held the view that the previleges of Rawlings are nonsensical enough... two houses or so and security and staff and 'aids' that are paid by the state... (i don't bother about whatever privileges that were withdrawn by the former executive no matter how distasteful if find the reasons for the Akufo-Addo led withdrawal...)!!! the remaining facilities at his disposal for me is too much...

IF EVEN WE HAD THE ECONOMY TO SUPPORT SUCH extravaganza and 'fanfair' I DEEM IT THE HEIGHT OF LUNACY TO EVEN TABLE IT FOR CONSIDERATION LET ALONE IMPLEMENTATION...

so pal, i don't want to say too much... i just wish to call on Kufuor to come out loud and clear HIMSELF to condemn such a facility 'IMPOSED' on him with his full knowledge on our behalf and on his own behalf that is meant to drain our sweat and blood and tears and piss and .....

and let Rawlings too come out again (especially if it's deemed to apply to him too) to BOOM this one into the ZoomLion trash bins... and let all the so called leaders and chiefs and kings and queenmothers or queens and pastors come out loud to condemn this act of thievery in the name of the law!

Rule of Law indeed my dear pal...

stay blessed!!!

mess

Pal dearest dear,

all around me is a load of mess!

does Ghana have a leader (president?) at all??? what's all the mess going on about cars, about toilets, about dismissals, about shootings and damn about any shit...

we have been told Fiifi (i like the sound of that- fiiiiifii) has decided to setup office at the Osu Castle for a temporal post.... still in transition i guess he would like us to believe... but see pal, i'm not one to be decieved... i mean, Fiifi the Mills old man got sworn into office by some tailored oaths, (which oath i don't believe he swore truly anyway) on the 7th Jan. That is a long time ago for one who promises to hit the ground running to asert himself (and i mean ASERT HIMSELF)... but not to continue to play it like he himself is still in transition!

LET MILLS COME OUT CLEAR ON ALL THE FOOLISHNESS GOING ON AND CALL FOR ORDER HIMSELF!!! THAT IS DEFINITELY ONE WAY TO DEMONSTRATE LEADERSHIP... and let him not just sit on his butts in his 'presidential chair' only to be sending spokespersons after spokespersons to tell us (what???).

Mills is not in transition and that must be made loud and clear to him no matter how his God-given eyes might be failing him! Osu Castle i believe is not a bad idea... there's nothing wrong in making it an office... in fact i'm of the view that those who claim that the Osu Castle only represents slavery might just as well tell us all to vamoose from the whole land cos slavery was carried out in the whole land man! my point is; can we just be humble enough to accept the failures of man and woman and then learn from these so that our forward march is made more meaningful???? So let the Jubilee house be finished first... no problem... but ASERT YOUR LEADERSHIP NOW!!!

Mill's says we should expect his cabinet by 31st Jan. I'm not sure if that's when he expects that all the due processes would have been completed... but if it's just to name the whos them Mills man must know that no matter what pressures he might want us to imagine for him... that is just too long a time to just name (if that's just it-- to name)! So until then he and his vice are the only substantive people with executive power! therefore he and his vice must be calling the shots but not some acting folks under whatever guise! LOOK, BE SERIOUS!!!

and also let Fiifi move out of his spintex-road residence to a relocation at the Osu Castle or at least close by enough to save the poor folks of the his nuisance of causing trafic jam just to allow his priviledged passaged! I hope Fiifi gets the message clear that Ghanaians don't have to wait for the date of the next elections to effect a sack of the NDC if need be!!! clearly the constitution makes it know that 4 years could (and the word is could) be too long and perhaps too costly...

we (including myself and others) are watching... as for me i'm demanding change!! Change must come and therefore the MESS must stop!!


FLASHBACK:
pal, this is not part of the mess... no, not at all..... this is a pic (see below) to cook up your libido into a 'presidential' enjoyment of lovely belles that abound in the land of Trinidad and Tobago seen 'almost' through the travelling eyes of 'St.' Kufuor the president of the past.... enjoy!

in the background is the man Kufuor surely 'collecting his eyes'

Pal, tell me a better way to enjoy life...if you know of any other! hahaahhahahaha!

keep well....

cheers!

breathe innnnn .... ouuuut !!!

Pal,
breathe...!
i have a have a funny liking for evidence... i think it's one of the sweetest concepts that make the world tangible... one can almost touch it....

so what happened...??? in a previous post titled another mix bag i wondered whether i did see that (Raw)lings the 'raw-one' did not greet Kufuor at Mill's inauguration or whether my eyes failed me! read exactly how i put it and i quote:

"and did i see that JJ after breaking protocol (unneeded protocol me think!) to recieve cheers did not greet JAK??? i hope my eyes failed me else, man that is shit!"

that statement in no way makes a closure! it's so naked you won't believe it... Pal, you won't believe how much nakedness is available to you if you don't read it carefully... so why would Obed my dear (find his comment on 'another mix bag') chose to be so 'sure of himself' to pass the kind of comment he passed suggesting that he was confirming that my eyes did not fail me as i thought... well pall, just have a good look at the pic below and tell me what you see:

did my eyes play a trick on me now???

OSAFO MARFO vs KUFUOR:
meanwhile...

whatever you see in that pic or whatever you do not see... just click here and read this one too! i have tried to forget about Kufuor as per his leadership but the 'last minute' decissions he took with less than 24hrs for him to leave office keeps coming back to gnaw at my very fibre...

now i salute Osafo Marfo for coming out bold to address 'a nation's issue'! for coming out to tell it to Kufuor my dear Kufused straight and direct, even though Osafo Marfo is the one who once told us that he had a contract presented to him in German and he signed it even though he could not read German language! halejuyah....!!!

Pal, i believe that moderates like Osafo Marfo (I'm yet to find reason against he being a moderate enough!) must take hold of the npp so that the once who act foolish (act foolish man!) are put in the rear to learn...

woman, i would definitely be telling you my views of the npp and what i think they should be doing... but for now, i pray! and i pray that Ghaians would reject whichever extremist who pokes his head out wanting to be prez no matter what the party collour!

Fly Away!
and let me just end by saying that Mills has made his first trip to an ECOWAS meeting in Abuja and which meeting i don't find important for him to attend... we could only have all sorts of explanations... but pal, for someone who tells me he wants to hit the road running i find it interesting... if not funny and if not crazy that he chooses to fly out at tax payers expense to a meeting which only ended up banning Guinea! but well, that is the first count so many (so many) me think and i'm watching still...

let jah be praised!

window 7

Pal, the actual thing is windows 7 (note the 's')!!!

so Microsoft says tomorrow we should expect the release of their latest windows OS which they are calling windows 7!

after creating all the mess in the world with the so called Vista we are being told of some clean up! no problem! i look forward to it.

me i always advised folks off the 'devil' of the Vista OS because it's just annoying... stick to good old Windows XP or at best welcome to the world of Open-source!

pal, i'm one of those who believe that software must not be paid for! so while Microsoft is at it's capitalist best and trying to rule the world... i would just wait!

but funny enough, though i've read about some issues even about the Windows 7 i have a funny feeling that Windows 7 will just be fine!

did i just hear you say "uhuh... this is what you should be blogging about instead of politics" ??? ... guess what pal, it's still political...

cheers!

another mix bag

yo pal, wazup?

Mills:

got inaugurated today! prez of Ghana...ok.
I don't care about such shows and the kind of unnecessarily flamboyant chairs that are made available to you... but that was some kind of a mess of a ceremony! somebody must be answering questions!

And Mills too, how come you seem to have gotten the wrong eyes for the oaths??? was it just before me, i would have asked you to re do it!!! and while you were screaming there is or will be only one Ghana, you had all around you party collours and i even saw chiefs(??) with party symbols...huh! Go tell that song of yours to Nana Konadu, the wife of JJ. tell her to know when to project Ghana and when to mount the party campaign stage! and did i see that JJ after breaking protocol (unneeded protocol me think!) to recieve cheers did not greet JAK??? i hope my eyes failed me else, man that is shit!

if i were you Mills, i would have made it clear to the people of Ghana that my inauguration must represent only Ghanaian but not party interests...and therefore there should be only Ghana flags...no party!!! no overly party person like Konadu should bring his or her party collours to the gathering of the people... the people man! can we break away from these things for once!!! ever??

Meanwhile, an aside:
a lot happened last night with the reported release of Tsatsu and the re-instatment of Kofi Boakye! a lot of questions to be asked Kufuor... but man... Kufuor has been under my nonsense for long... Let me just say to him, as he bows out that, look man, I BLESS YOU (your very self) for the good you did and i condemn the bad (this one, not your person! the act!) you did...

SEX BAILLOUT:
This news got me almost breaking my sides with laughter! we are being told that Americans can do without cars but not sex! hahahahahaha....pal, i wonder if this world is not just a fun place! check out the story for yourself!

Burris:
Pal, i hope you've heard about the nomination of Burris to the US senate. we are being told he's a good and competent man who got nominated by Blagojevich, a tainted man! Obama has already spoken against the nomination just like i expected him to... but now we are being told that the black caucus are asking that he be accepted(??). is that 'tribalism' (???)... if racism is not a better word, hahahaha.... but ME wont go there... cos ME believe everyone or group has genuine concerns... just fine so!

i think it's a tricky one now, but if you ask me pal, my preference would be that Burris steps aside or get's kicked aside to allow for some fresh air because i also believe the nomination is tainted and also because i believe he's not the only one around town! there are certainly others who would not get such stain (some other stain maybe!) and get down to biz! but on the other hand too...why deny a man the chance to prove himself just because of some stain???...that's a legit question...but i believe stepping aside himself or getting kicked aside by others is the best choice under the circumstances???

let a man stand up for principles pal. and a woman too!

i pray!

not my father!

no pal,
not at all!
and the message must go out to Mills loud and clear no matter how some want to give him room to breathe...

I was taken aback this morning when i read from the front page of the Daily Graphic that Prez-elect Atta Mills says "I'LL BE FATHER TO ALL"...

That statement reminds me of when Kufuor also got elected in the year 2000! he said something like that!

but pal, i think our leaders must start getting what it means in very plain terms what it means to be elected a leader...be it labeled president or some other funny name!

Mills, let me tell you... "you are not my father and i want you to stop thinking me to see you as such..." that mentality is basically problematic...since it could easily lend itself to reducing your responsibilities to providing tokens and encouraging me to accept because you are 'my father'! and i your obedient son??? nonsense!

what i want Mills to know is that he is my employee and ought to serve me! if he doesn't get it clear; what i mean is that i'm the boss here! and so are all there millions of Ghanaians who are waiting for you to serve them.

so better get to work and stop calling yourself father...and i hope your wife too does not start parading herself about as my mother as Mrs. Kufuor did!

meanwhile, i see that you have a very interesting transition that raises all sorts of legitimate questions...but i'm listening to the so called expects do their dribble about themselves on constitutionality and so on and i'm just listening and watching for now!

my only hope is that some of those people you have there don't end up as nominees for ministerial posts!

wishing you well still!

infancy???

Pal,

there's a funny talk about us having an infant democracy!

therefore we should be ok with change of governments from incumbent to opposition and so on (almost so!!)....but i hardly understand what all that talk is about...i really don't understand why that talk.... but i understand!

A SHORT ASIDE....{in one breath...i claim i don't understand, in same breath...not another....i claim also that i understand....now, you tell me how both situations can exist in my crazy head at the same time.....hahahaha!}

A simple question is how many years should it take before we come to realise that a president who is supposed to be our servant does not dare award himself on our behalf and on his own behalf and then go on to demand respect and rounds of applause??? how many years...??? that's a simple question!

The more dangerous thing for me is that some are too ready to accept our current status by comparing us to the rest of Africa where clearly democracy is at best a circus! READ THIS!!! but why???

if we live in a continent where civil wars and coup d' tats happen before one could blink the eyes, you won't be too far from accepting just a simple breath of fresh air in the form of a so called 'infant' democracy passing as a mere change of government executive power from an incumbent to opposition!!

That kind of standard setting is too low and infantile if not bogus!!! i wonder how many years we need to have ran democracy before realising that we should set higher stands of rule of law and good governance! and please don't tell me that America has been at it for so long...No! yes they have but see the foolishness of Bush??? and did the Germans not give birth to Adolf Hitler under democracy??? tell me now pal, that you understand my craziness...!

My point is that principles don't change with time...so that we have to wait till SOMEday after a centurial time before learning to adhere to sound principles that benefit all... therefore we must make sure we all get involved so that we have folks who demonstrate sound minds leading us....instead of the ones who only display impunity and arrogance and foolishness and stupidity and thievery and more!!

how many years should it take before we come to realise that we must not allow our leaders to spend publich money on their private properties under some infantile guise???

So pal, i don't want you to settle for mediocre! rise up and demand that our leaders who are supposed to be our employees first of all work to the highest achievable levels by man and woman and hermaphrodites!!!

i want you to know that we have an *overly* old enough democracy to start being serious with our selves instead of allowing the leaders we employ to play folly with our tears, sweat and blood...... our smiles, laughter and cries...... our joy and pains....... our libidos, tickles, sensuality and orgasms.......

let us keep our leaders on their toes...... and we definitely need not wait in Ghana for 4 good years as per the Ghanaian constitution before we sack our president if need just beeeeeeeeeeee!

tsooooooo boi....!

pal, may we have better!

just place that fon call

massa, you no go call Atta or whot??? why you dey che like so??? why you vex or whot???

Pal, that's the question i would put to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo should he dare grant me audience!

I don't seem to understand this man who claims to believe in Ghana so much that he makes it look like he's the one and only believer now!

Finally he's made public a statement to congratulate Mills as the president elect. But my question to the man is: have you placed that BEAUTIFUL PHONE CALL to your old fellow Mills??? we are in an era where it's almost becoming a part of the process to place a call to your competitor in a presidential race to just say the word 'congratulations'! if for nothing at all it demonstrate that you whole heatedly respects the decision of the people!!!

but instead of Nana to place that call which in any case the public would not be partake in directly to just show a demonstration of going a 'little further' he is still grumbling about criminalities which according to him occurred in the volta region!

Does Nana think a soul like me is stupid or what? why is he pretending to be championing the cause of all when obviously he's only interested in solving problems that would be to his benefit! he talks about the volta region as if it is some devils place now! that is sad to say the least! and let me tell him that that kind of attitude would only antagonise the people of the region and push the further away from him in particular and his party!

Pal, you would think that the race is over and therefore i should be calm....as if i'm not already, but this man Nana is just acting funny! he is pretending that he never heard of any attacks on anybody in any part of the country apart from the volta region during the 2008 elections! That is deceptive!

but pal, you see, i'm proud of one thing...that is that Nana has proven me right that he can hardly be a unifier! he almost speaks as if unity can be achieved in the law courts! how naive if not pretentious of this man!!! and he says he will be back in 4yrs??? i urge all to see the selfishness of this man and never give him the chance to be our leader unless he stops this kind of pretentions and rather demontrates that he would reach across the political divide!!!

all these nonsense about the volta region must stop now! someone tell nana and all his followers and leaders. If you think i'm speaking jazz then look for the Bishop Agyin Asare's statement on the elections and read it for yourself!!!

pal, I have always said that i believe that out electoral system (the whole system) is a very bogus one! but what? we have lived with it and improved it somehow since 1992! and Nana is one person who has in one way or the other taken part in elections in this country since then! so what??? has he suddenly realise all the faults in the system? and funny enough his view is not even universal...it's so skewed towards his ambition to become president.

let me tell Nana what, if you believe in Ghana then what to do is to just stop the noise about the volta region and rather get to working to ensure folks all over the country are free to vote and be voted for!

period!
