  As the days go by more and more people wake up to the reality of the ndc anti Akan hate agenda and their deep rooted corrupt dark souls of evil .This was first initiated by the Ewes and through Mahama and his brothers being championed today by the northerners. We see in Iraq/Syria the announce of the Islamic caliphate state and their map which now includes Ghana and the whole of West Africa .Most people are ignorant of the fact that unlike in Christianity and other religions whereby the leaders or priests are men of peace in Islam their imams or priests advocate for war and destruction of the non believers and when war starts every single one of them assumes the title emir and becomes the captain of a murderous horde as we saw in Libya and with the boko haram. The mosque is not only a place of worship but an army fortress or barracks and that is why they must in the design in every area which is not predominately Muslim its required to have a tall reconnaissance tower. we see in Accra and other places these mosques spring up all over the place at militarily very strategic positions but we are vigilant and when our bloody revolution starts we will raze all these structures to the ground and drive out this menace from our midst . There are some brainwashed idiotic fools who still believe mahama has good intentions but don't know he is a Muslim disguised as a christian which Islam allows and his only agenda is to weaken with corruption and destroy with negligence the Akan economy so the caliphate can be achieved that is why no project of strategic importance can see the light of day under his watch.As for the Ewes his partners in crime all i can say is have you ever wondered why when you go to Togo there the Ewes are very nice people and true African brothers but the moment you cross the Aflao border into Ghana the ayigbe wickedness , hate and evil starts? The ewes in Togo know these ayigbe are so bad and useless that they are not interested in reuniting with them but would rather throw them all into the sea. We should find a way to trick them into taking them back as we Akans will definitely be better off without this foolish idiotic people. Mahama and his brothers have stolen so much that even the bank of Ghana admits they dont know where our foreign reserves have disappeared to , i can tell you where , Turkey , Iran, Dubai and other Muslim countries where its safe for them. Congrats to Kumasi for hitting the nail on the head and exposing the discrimination and abuse of the civil/human rights with the WHAT HAVE WE DONE TO YOU demonstration , today we see idiots and saboteurs trying turn it into a question of mere economics , even one idiot woman came out with a humiliating brainless idea to go naked just to deflect from the main core issue of discrimination against the Akans. My people we have only one problem and if that's solved the rest will be easy , the problem is discrimination and the Anti Akan agenda of part of this mafia ndc . its never about npp , ndc ,left or right wing ideology politics but simply pepeni/ayigbe tribalism against Akan nationalist evolution. They are only attracted to ideas that only destroy our economy like this EPA paramount foolishness with the Europeans or giving away our gold fields to foreigners who never invest here in the name of prudent business , end result our people are exploited and made poorer. we shall never surrender or be fooled again. While we were thinking of a better Ghana for ALL citizens they were thinking of only themselves and destroying the future for our children . We need to have our revolution and secede to form our own state as they will never change.

  How I wish I had the wherewithal to appoint this man, Amidu as the Attorney General again.
  
  John Dramani Mahama has no shame and no credibility otherwise he would have appointed this one and only good NDC man Attorney General, not today or yesterday but the very day he assumed the mantle of leadership of this country. But alas, he himself is soiled with corruption big time, hence wouldn't want somebody like Amidu looking over his shoulders. The only way Mahama can win the trust, respect and confidence of the people back in fighting corruption, is to get this man back as soon as possible in the AG's department. Anything less than that is just lip service.
  
  How can we waste the talent of such a person as Mr. Amidu baffles and boggles my mind. Are we that stupid? Damn!

It is quite ironic that the expected cocoa syndicated loan and $1billion Eurobond facility appear to be the President's hope for improving the macro environment. What is his programme for job creation; stimulating domestic demand?

  Let me tell you one thing that is happening to Mahama. As he keeps lying, the economic indicators in the nation keep exposing him as a failed leader leading a useless political party.

  As a resident of Adenta for over 30 years I heaved a sigh of relief when one early morning last year I woke up to find earth shaking equipment disturbing the neigbourhood. In good time the road from Ritz junction passing infront of the NPP office was being tarred. Someone joked that it was the work of Madam Frances Asiam to show the constituents of Adenta what she was capable of doing even though they refused to vote for her. But then the NDC chaps came and claimed credit for Hon Ashie Moore the newly elected MP. Whoever claims the credit is of no relevance to the inhabitants. All that we care for is that a road neglected for over 40 years is being tarred. But alas, just as work had started, it soon stopped. The newly constructed gutters, reshaped, regravelled road has to wait again. What is happening? The rains would soon wash away all the good works commenced on this road, which serves as an axilliary link taking away a lot of traffic from the main Madina-Aburi motorway. There are a lot of roads in Accra and other cities in this condition needing only a little more effort on the part of Govt to complete and bring relief to the population. We don't need demonstrations like happened in Ashaiman to have these raods fixed. The President who I have come to believe listens and reads a lot, should get all these half roads completed throughout the country before starting new ones. In this way he would be remembered as President "Oye ade yiye". Whether started by NPP or NDC all these roads are in Ghana. That is the most important. We need continuity in development.

It is however ridiculous to think that $17million was earmarked to build a hangar to house the airplane.

  Employment can be created through infrastructure developement works like road and drainage building and improvements in all cities and towns.
  Most small roads in front of houses in Accra are bare earth wthout ashpalt and no covered drains. Trying to beautify the city by doing this simple works will create jobs for Civil Engineers,school leavers from technical schools, and unskilled workers who can work as labourers. It will also help eradicate choked and filthy gutters that contribute to diseases like malaria, cholera etc. We should try to do the simple things first, like what I have just advocated above. Tourists like to visit countries that are not filthy and mosquito ridden. Simply creating neat road and drainage works on all back roads in the city will go a long way to create some jobs, eliminate some diseases, and beautify the city.

  Mahama can never achieve anything because his government has plunged the country into serious debt. There is no money to even pay workers or contractors. Our credit is messed up to the extent that loan interest rates have skyrocketed. We're in very serious trouble and it's all attributed to bad governance by the NDC administration.

Maybe, his wolf will finally appear to stop our misery even if it's temporary with all this money coming in. Remember the great striker Abukari of yester year's Asante Kotoko? When he played, he had only one thing on his mind. He always said " goal na me fe feh " Well Mr President, productivity and results is all we Ghanaians are waiting and looking for.
