Is Ken more of a human being than the thousands of other convicts being kept under such prison rules just because he is a politician and NPP member for that matter.
This idiot Afriyie must know that regardless of who Ken is, there is one common denominator for him and other prisoners; they are all convicts.

This primitive Owusu Afriyie, the General Secretary of the cocaine party, is so primitive and talks so foolishly that he should be the next person to be hauled before the Supreme Court.

The NDC would have to explain to Ghanaians how a dead man came to author and sign a letter!

The opening paragraph states, “I came to serve; I have finished my time here on earth and have moved on to everlasting rest and celestial duties with my heavenly father.”

The immediate question is; how did the dead man come to sign his own personal tribute, since he is already in heaven?

The letter then goes on melodramatically, “As you leaf through these pages of my life’s story, I pray to God that it touches your heart in many positive ways. Weep not, I am not dead. I am alive and awake in the Lord. Ghana will not die; Ghana will live to declare the works of the Lord. As I rest in perfect peace in the celestial realms with my maker, I pledge to always uphold and defend the good name of Ghana. Remember the Lord in all your ways and He will protect you. Stay well my brothers and sisters, I will always be with you. Signed (with actual signature) John Evans Atta Mills...

Are you aware doctors are able to accurately predict the day and sometimes the time of death of people suffering from chronic diseases like cancer and because of this some of them leave/give parting message and have their family gather around them as they pass on?
Haven't you noticed this with Mills, when he invited Rawlings to the castle and made peace with him a couple of weeks before his death. Also,invited his family to a get together the weekend before he died?
Is it not possible that Mills having realised his death is inevitable and imminent could have written and signed the message a head of time especially when a wicked party like NPP pronounced him dead three times before his eventual death.
Anybody could have done the same thing if he found himself in circumstances similar to those of Mills.

Kojo Owusu Afriyie wants to twist the rules in prison service,whilst prisons officers are saying that kuranchie has exceeded his quota of visit, the stupid of officials of the NPP says they will go ahead to visit him. kuranchie is not important than the already inmates in prison so kwadwo owusu afriyie should have in mind that the in Ho prisons are not going to relax for the NPP delegates to visit kuranchie.No rules are going to be relaxed. kuranchie will at Ho prison for his 10 days jailed sentence.

That is why this party will forever remain in opposition. I cry for my party.What kind of example are we showing in this country? I wonder if there is any sensible human being left in this party! Who is Kuranchie! Where were these nonentities when we were fighting for the survival of this party? If only we knew at the time! We would have put our money in a good venture instead of wasting it on a party like the NPP that has been hijacked by a very few selfish and frustrated criminals parading as the saviour of it.What kind of example have we been setting all along.It will surely take a donkey years for this party to come to power,with the way they are behaving irresponsibly in this country.How sad!

Although, I don't agree with the "ease" and arbitrariness at which judges can convict somebody for contempt Ken has been lawfully convicted. I can't understand then how, a so called law respecting party as NPP, who is asking the same judges to rule in their favor on this case can "insult" the court by showing their respect and interest for Ken.
I think that by itself is even contemptuous.

I understand this Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie is a lawyer but in fact, he does not behave as one. He is a disgrace to the Ghana Bar Association. What authority has he to say that the NPP delegation can visit jailed Ken kuranchie in prison when the prisoner has clearly exceeded his visiting quota?. Is that prisoner more important than the rest of the inmates to be accorded preferential treatment?. The Ho prison officials must note that 'we are watching'.

The new bride tells her husband, “Honey, you know I’m a virgin and I don’t know anything about sex. Can you explain it to me first?”

“Okay, sweetheart. Putting it simply, we will call your private place ‘the
prison’ and call my private thing ‘the prisoner’. So what we do is put the
prisoner in the prison.”

And then they made love for the first time.

Afterwards, the guy is lying face up on the bed, smiling with satisfaction.

Nudging him, his bride giggles, “Honey the prisoner seems to have escaped.”

Turning on his side, he smiles. “Then we will have to re-imprison him.”

After the second time, the guy reaches for his cigarettes, but
the girl, thoroughly enjoying the new experience of making love, gives him
a suggestive smile, “Honey, the prisoner is out again!”

The man rises to the occasion, but with shaky legs and much difficulty.

Afterwards, he lays back on the bed, totally exhausted.

She nudges him and says, “Honey, the prisoner escaped again.”

Limply turning his head, he yells, “Hey, it’s not a life sentence!”

wo church members were going door to door. They knocked on the door of a woman who clearly was not happy to see them. She told them in no uncertain terms she did not want to hear their message and then slammed the door in their faces.

To her surprise, the door did not close. In fact, it bounced back open.

She tried again, really put her back into the job, and slammed the door again.

Same results. The door bounced back like it was made of Silly Putty.

Convinced one of these rude church members was sticking a foot in the door, she reared back to give the door a slam that would teach them a lesson.

Just then, one of the church members said, "Ma'am, before you do that again, you might want to move your pussy cat."

Is the NPP delegation's visit jailed publisher more important to the Organizing Secretary or lack of respect for the law of the land? My question is does the prison authority have the right to call the police to arrest any group of people that assembly there to cause public disturbance? Just throw them in jail is they disobey the quota law and misbehave.
