  We should go back to "Lift High The Flag Of Ghana......." That was an uplifting patriotic anthem. All the rest that came after it are the reasons why we lack patriotism today. We are crest-fallen and pessimistic. Time for Sankofa.

  I dare executive, judiciary and legislative to sing it right. They cannot because they do not know what it is and how important it is.
  They did renew their minds

  The anthem sums up who we are. A laid back people resting solely on our trust in God. We wait to be attacked, and then react. On our own we have no commitment to striving to improve ourselves. We sit and we accommodate our everyday challenges for generations. We lack the sense of devising prompt solutions by ourselves for our local challenges; always relying on foreigners; paying heavily for their solutions; operate without maintenance; collapse them and call the foreigner again. All this because because we don't even know who and who stand united under the banner of this flag of Ghana, and what our common purpose is. As things stand now, Ghana is there, for whoever gets the chance, to steal and plunder its assets.

  Get away with your religious nonsense. Ghana will not be inspired by Jesus Christ's leadership but by the constitution of Ghana. It is high time we Stop swearing in our Presidents with the Bible (remember the constitution says Ghana is a secular state). Here instead, the President should be sworn in with his/her hands placed on the constitution of Ghana. He/she should rule in accordance with the constitution. Note that not all Ghanaians are religious but all Ghanaians are supposed to follow the constitution. It is time we change some of our practices which we take for granted (without questioning) but which are holding us back as people.

  Thank you ; but take a look at a TRAINED Catholic Rev FATHER’S conduct as a High Court judge in Accra recently. Are you not ashamed?
