    WHETHER OR NOT GREED IS AMONG PASTORS SHOULD NOT STOP PASTORS FROM TALKING ABOUT IT. WHAT WE NEED IN THIS COUNTRY IS TO HAVE REVERENCE FOR THE TRUTH AND MOST OF OUR CHALLENGES WILL BE RESOLVED

    MAHAMA MUST FACE FIRING SQUAD NOW! KILL THEM A GREEDY BASTARDS

  • Whatever 11 years ago

    Sometimes I wonder why Otabil associates himself with the NPP, because ideological he seems to be at odds with them. All the things Otabil just talked about are the symptons of the disease of individualism and raw capitalism.

  • ELINAN 11 years ago

    Otabil should stop talking in circles and pin point the troubles of our country wich fall on the tables or both NDC and NPP without fear or favor.
