I know grace and love has been there, before the earth was created, out of these grace and love the idea of creating the earth came to be.However, what was introduced on the earth after creation was the salvation scheme which works through what was already there by encapsulating all that was there into galvanised interdependency to bring total understanding and completeness of all things together for the kingdom of God Alimighty, headed by the alpha and omega lamb of God Himself. They like to make themselves happy in false material vanities and joy of short memories to entice novices,spiritual bankcrupts and the worldly wise for the hullucinated smiles of no mean avarice. Imagine a natural born or bible predicted armed robbery society calling a spiv criminal. They are out of their minds. Fabricating an aborminable religion to shape the minds of their children against true gospel. Their children will grow up to be the worse of generations to come, because they are being thought to disregard their wrongs to others, except themselves. They do unnecessary comparising to nation who they try to dominate when it comes to wrong doing, not thinking that is why they overthrow other government to do the same things those governments did.

Kwame,

You come across as bitter in this piece, just because Mahama's book has been assigned to a class at Yale. Look, you can do better than this unnecessary criticism of the current Ghanaian president.
You may be on a different political trajectory, but I think we should all be proud of Mahama, not because his book has been assigned to a mere introductory class at Yale, but because he is the only Fourth-Republican president to have written a book.
If you spent less time insulting your opponents on Ghanaweb and more time writing a good novel, you just may receive the recognition that has eluded you all these years.

For me any Ghanaian author I do respect. I give due respect because I know how much goes into writing...articles and more so, books.
I do not care which political divide, once the author is Ghanaian, I am excited to read his/her work. Academia is about knowledge and adding to the body of knowledge. It feels great to read from African authors. I just got my summer reading: "There was a country: A personal history of Biafra" by Chinua Achebe. It is promising to be an exciting read.
I believe we should be proud as Ghanians, that our president penned a book. Nkrumah penned a lot. Busia did same. Let give credit where is due.

Kwame, so, it's impossible not to like Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah [Ghana's first President], after all? Whatever you think of President John Mahama's [Ghana's current President]book, I don't think he has pretensions towards being a literary genius of his age! All right-minded folk like the book. And I don't think President Mahama needs your approval as you're a literary nobody!
Get a life, Kwame! You bitter creep!

Whilst I agree with your headline and the reason being that Nkrumah showed great and unprecedented urgency in the plight of Ghanaians, I completely disagree with the article and its delusional strings of hunch. Akufo Addo will never become president in Nkrumah's Ghana. You can go and play in the supreme court everyday but when you finish, you'd come back to reality and the force at play

That there was election fraud is known to objective analysts, both Ghanaians and non-Ghanaians. What baffles us is why the NPP allowed that to happen.
And if the fraud tilted the election results, one can say that for now, it would be difficult for the so-called stealers to be removed from power from so-call democratic Ghana.
Here are a few reasons:
1. The SC has no power to elect the president of Ghana. They can only refer the case back to the EC for correction or re-voting in case there is evidence of massive fraud. But due to several reasons including funding and possible chaos, such a scenario is unlikely regardless of the magnitude of evidence. Even if it does happen, and as it is believed that the EC is made up of a bunch of untrustworthy thugs, one can expect them to repeat the same mantra.
2. If it is true that Dr. Raymond Akongburo Atuguba, the Executive Secretary to President Mahama, is a relative of Justice Atuguba, then would it not be very unlikely, if not highly impossible, for Justice Atuguba and his colleagues to decide otherwise even in the face of overwhelming evidence? As you know in Ghana, one good turn deserves another.
3. Akans are the most disunited people in the country. They are united among their various (sub)tribes only. The Ashantis for instance, are wary of a win by Akufo-Addo since he is close to another throne they consider to be their rival. They fear that his victory would help elevate the throne. That was also part of the reason why former president Kuffour tried to push his brother to be the presidential candidate in place of Akufo-Addo.
4. The international community is generally comfortable with Mahama,a conciliatory technocrat just a bit different from late Atta-Mills.
5. U.S. and the west generally do not trust Akufo-Addo. For instance, it is believed that he planned/plans to renegotiate to possibly increase Ghana's current 10% share in the oil/petroleum agreement in the event that he becomes President. This does not go well with them.
---
The NPP generally made a mistake for allowing the train to pass by before beginning to run after it. If they were sure of their allegation of irregularities and fraud, they should have approached the case more vigorously and even taken a more logical step of blocking the inauguration of the president-elect until the case was resolved. From objective logical point of view, even with quantum efforts, the only likely scenario is that the case may help to address "some" of the election malpractices.
Oh yes, appreciate the progress of others, even if he/she is your opponent. Even if Mahama's book would be read by a few young children, it is still an achievement and we (must) congratulate him for that.
