When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Please spare a thought for the farmers and tax payers whose money you are fighting over. Discuss ways of raising revenue from mining, oil, gas and other sources before you fight over distribution.

Who is providing the fund ? If it is government then it is the responsibility of the government machinery for communication to have the oversight responsibility. Once a board is formed the directors draw all sort of allowances that will reduce the amount available for actual projects unless all who serve on the board will receive no remuneration or allowance.

How can a whole Presidents's health be shrouded in secrecy in a modern world of democracy?
If the so called aides and communications team at the presidency had not lied all this while and politicized the presidents health he would have been living today whatever made them keep the late president's health a secret will tell everybody that they are not honest politicians but have a motive known to themselves and should bow their heads in shame...

THE GHANA MEDIA SHOULD NOT HAVE A FUND FROM THE AFRC/P/NDC BECAUSE IT IS A BRIBE, THIRTY PIECES OF SILVER, BLOOD MONEY TO BUY THE SILENCE OF THE MEDIA FROM EXPOSING THE CORRUPTION THE GOVERNMENT AND BY THE PRESIDENT AND HIS MINISTERS.

IF THE GHANA MEDIA NEED MONEY TO RUN THEIR NEWSPAPERS ETC, THEY SHLULD GO TO THE BANK AND ASK FOR LOANS. AFTER ALL THE MEDIA HOUSES ARE BUSINESSES AND SHOULD NOT HAVE FREE MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT TO BE SOFT ON CORRUPTION AND THE THIEVERY OF THE AFRC/P/NDC GOVERNMENT.

The media must come to know that that was another NDC promise. It was made to just to win the media over to help them to win the fraudulent elections.
Now the government want a full control of your fund to control you permanently. All that Kufour built will be dismantle by this hopeless NDC government including NHIS.

It happened right here in Ghana, before. Where is Stan Dogbe, he should be ready to answer this when the right time for people's revolution, come, dead or alive!

Most Ghanaians want freebies including members of GJA, Chiefs, Politicians, etc. The truth is GJA should raise their funds from their members and control it. They do not need help from the government. The fund should go way. Another waste in a long line of wasteful expenditures. Ghana's economy is managed like a basket fund, dip your hands in and go.

It is better and professionally proper to allow the media practitioners association (GJA) to manage the fund whilst the Ministry, through the National Media Commision, exercises an oversight responsiblity for the sake of transparency and accountability. The GJA is strong enough with media professionals of excellent repute to see to judicious use of the fund for the benefit of all.
