  Just before the Deputy Minister-designate was vetted, Chairman of the Appointments Committee Ebo Barton Odro appealed to members to ask just a few questions to enable the nominee to leave quickly.
  
  “Honourable members, as you can see, the Deputy Minister-designate is heavily-pregnant and should therefore not be made to sit here for long,” the chairman said.
  
  Answering a question posed by Samuel Okudzeto-Ablakwa as to how she would advise owners of pets, like cats and dogs, to take good care of them because such pets could be a ‘delicacy’ for some ethnic groups, Dr. Bissiw, in a composed manner, narrated her own experience.
  
  She said she had a beautiful cat as a pet but the cat ended up in someone’s soup because she did not take very good care of it.
  
  “Mr. Chairman as a young girl, I had a beautiful kitten as my cherished pet, but there were some young men in our house who sometimes took the pet and fed it till the kitten grew into a fat cat. But one day my cat was no where to be found, so I asked the young men in my house whether the cat had come to them and the answer was that if I could only split their stomachs open, I will find the cat there; meaning they had killed and eaten the cat,” she narrated.

  The men and women at the top are eating big. What do you expect the poor unemployed people at the bottom to do? They also have to survive. How can a family man with kids at school survive on 5GH a day? Don't blame them.

  In the days of the Berlin Wall, there was a little old man who crossed the checkpoint every week, pushing his bicycle and carrying a heavy sack. The border guard, suspecting him of smuggling, always searched the sack thoroughly but never found anything worthwhile. One day, after the wall came down, the guard ran into the little old man.
  
  "Look, I just know you were smuggling something all those years but I could never prove it," said the guard. "Tell me what it was."
  
  The little old man chuckled, "Bicycles."

  Fellow readers, Mr Koranteng wrote that a gallon of petrol in Ghana is about Ghc90 and CFA3000 which is about Ghc10 over the borders. So where from the profit of Ghc1 to the smuggler? If truly, Ghc1 is all that the smuggler g ...

  Fellow readers, Mr Koranteng wrote that a gallon of petrol in Ghana is about Ghc90 and CFA3000 which is about Ghc10 over the borders. So where from the profit of Ghc1 to the smuggler? If truly, Ghc1 is all that the smuggler gets, why is risk?
  I believe smuggling is there but Mr Koranteng lacks that facts and his figures does not add up. Peace!!!
