This is one of the things I detest about chieftaincy. Anytime someone in a position of power and authority goofs and punishment is about to be exacted then they come in with their annoying pleas. How can we build a decent society of responsible citizens, especially those we've entrusted the destiny of our nation to? Do they allow the same interference in their traditional adjudications? The woman is simply not fit for purpose and must resign or be fired.

Oh, please don’t worry my Ga friends because the Ga people don’t own any more lands in Accra. They have sold all to the Akans, particularly the Kwahu, the Asante and the Akyem people. They now fight over which day the Homowo will start and end. And funnily enough, they rent all rooms in their houses to immigrants and sleep on their porches and even Bus Stops. They bath in the open at night and shit in the Gutters behind their houses and also at the beaches. I remember that sometime during the AFRC time, Efo Julor John Rawlings will send Soldiers to go and get those shitting at the Osu and Labadi beaches to discipline them with lashes in public. Hahahaha. This is very true.

Akandoh was all over the place shouting that doctors have refused posting to the North. His fellow minister said the place is for punishment; so are the doctors wright to refuse posting?

Perfectly said. Even when people commit crimes or corruption, they go begging for them. The same people want Ghana to be like aboard where people are held responsible for their actions. The chiefs are our problems.

Kwasiasem, she needs to accept posting in this case reshuffle to one of the northern parts of the country before we could forgive her.

Hahahaha. You are right. Many National Service members from the South who had no Free Education for School were sent to the North for National Service while those from the South who had Free Education in the North refused and resisted all attempts to have them sent to their own area where they had Free Education. Find out if Mahama, Bawumia and Hilla Limann among others ever worked at the North after the Free Education that they enjoyed from there. Yes, and many Anlo Ewes too are not interested in working in their regions, districts or hometowns. U wonder if the Tsikatas and the Agbolosoo family members accepted any positions in their respective areas. Rawlings should have been sent to work there so he could have spoken the mother’s language. Hahahaha.

Yeah, that's all Ghana is about. We are hypocrites, cowards and afraid to call spade a spade. Now as usual, a whole Ga Traditional Council will come and defend her and plead on her behalf. Instead of calling her out on what she said, no, a whole bunch of chiefs will come on her defense. So why wouldn't she continue to say stupid stuff again? The elite or the rich is always right. They are never wrong. And even when the whole world condemn her action, we will have all these irresponsible and coward chiefs come and defend her, just because she is one of their own. If our elders are afraid to tell the truth, then what are we teaching the youth? Always lie and say stupid things and we got your back. What a shameless and corrupt country we live in.

Why is this ignorant woman even in office? I blame John Dramani Mahama for putting her in office, when we all saw the Zoom lion supporting her vetting by paying bribes to Afenyo to refrain from asking her questions. I believe she has probably signed a new Zoomlion deal, though we all opposed it. And why is the Ga traditional council pleading for her stupidity? Don't we have prominent Ga folk who are more qualified to do better for Greater Accra?

In fact, what has this woman done since she was appointed to a big portfolio in the Greater Accra region? Lets be serious

In any case so called traditional leaders should keep their noses out politics and democratic governance.There is a reason the constitution bars them from politics.They are inherently corrupt.
A grossly underperforming unashamedly rude and disrespectful political appointee deserves the sack because she is unqualified and unfit for purpose.

You can ban noise-making, but you can't call out the stupid statements of a government official. Pathetic. Since when did your Traditional Council become an interpreter for useless government officials?

This is bogus support. Why do you support a minister who creates division among tribes? This means you are behind the minister to create chaos. This is shameful to Ga Traditional Council. Instead of the Council coming out to condemn the minister's statement you are supporting her. Isn't any sensible person within the Council? She wouldn't be a minister forever; her time will come.

Niimei, I'm sorry you've got it all wrong. Are you justifying what the Minister said? If because she is a Ga, and you want to apologise on her behalf, please go ahead and be clear. The lady spoke in English, not Ga, that would require any translation. Niimei, I am sorry you are treading a dangerous path of quickly jumping to defend your tribesmen at the least instance. Please our eminence, with all respect, don't let it be suggested you're setting a dangerous precedence.
