Chief, I agree with you that a new ministry is not required to deal with the energy crisis. Instead, the President should have sacked the minister for Energy who has failed and is incompetent. All what is required is effective and efficient Energy Minister with one deputy who will be responsible for power generation and distribution. How can there be separate ministries for Energy and Power? Is power not part of Energy? Waste of scarce resources.

The President should have sacked the MD of ECG long time ago also for incompetence. Until Mahama takes on incompetent ministers and heads of public institutions, his presidency will fail abysmally.

CPP is no party. It's living on its past glory. It will never come to power because this generation doesn't know CPP. The ranks of the CPP are not like the 2 major parties. Greenstreet should know that politics in Ghana goes with insults. His mother and grandmother will be insulted in their graves. He himself should be prepared for personal abuse and attacks. The people don't care wether he's disabled, 'unabled' or enabled. If he wades into politics and decides to go and talk stupidly on such a political platform, he will suffer such abuse. Period!

How sad it took so long for Ghanaians to know the ndc.We told you but you wouldn't believe. A bunch of cantankerous entities, very dangerous than the viper. More fire Ivor, MAN of the year.

Where was this useless CPP when the Minority leader called the president to be suffering from glaucoma and many names related to the disable or they think disability is related to only people in wheel chair?

I don't see anything wrong with what Sam George said. What is the use of Idiomatic expression or proverbs if we cannot use them in our daily expressions or language. Sam George could have said the same thing to an able people. Does Ivor really need the "elevator" to see? No! But it's an expression and nothing malice towards Ivor about his disability

Author:-PRINCE KWASI ADADE (OFIE)...
Ivor Greenstreet said directly to President John Mahama and Vice President Kwesi Amissah-Arthur that: “You don’t care”.

“Nobody is feeling your better Ghana”, Greenstreet shouted when he delivered his party’s solidarity message to the NDC at the congress at the Baba Yara Stadium in the Ashanti regional Captial, Kumasi – stronghold of the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).

In the full glare of the President, Vice President, former President Jerry Rawlings, and thousands of leaders and supporters of the NDC, a defiant Greenstreet said: “…Currently nobody, I mean nobody is feeling your better Ghana.”

“Continuous ‘dumsor dumsor,’ corruption from top to bottom, left right inside out, and all the challenges you are facing [are] suffocating the Ghanaian people.”

He added: “We would have thought that perhaps you may have used an occasion like this to discuss policies, programmes and solutions to all the difficulties we are facing as a nation, but no, you chose today to share your Christmas gifts with each other.”

“Ghanaians are not happy at all. This ‘bronya’ is dry. Too too dry,” he told the President, adding: “The most painful thing of all is that you don’t care.”

“NDC continue, we are watching you, Ghana is watching you, do what you want to do, we also know what we’ll come and do…make sure you’ll elect executives who will be able to steer your parties affairs when you are in opposition. Boys abr3.”

The wheelchair-bound Politicians has been called names and criticised by leaders and supporters of the NDC after his bluntness. While Majority Leader Alban Bagbin has said he believed Greenstreet was possessed by some demons, which caused him to be “so emotional”, presidential staffer Sam George wrote on his Facebook wall that: “Ivor Greenstreet apparently needs elevation to see the Better Ghana.”

However, Nkrumah said Greenstreet’s message was crafted by the CPP to capture the mood and mind of the entire country.

Back to the topic. I really hope that CPP and NPP merge some day... I love cpp, but I know we don't stand a chance. NPP has a better shot. Ghana needs to become a Three party system and do away with all 100 little other parties. NDC needs to go. I hate NDC with a passion, and it burns me knowing that i once voted for them.

Nii Armah Akomfrah is seeking cheap popularity and he’s trying to make a mountain out of a mole. Because Ivor Greenstreet is disabled, no one can use idiomatic expressions or proverbs to describe something or put their points across? We Ghanaians likes to make a meal out of nothing.

A woman put an add in the paper saying that she needs a man who can satisfiy her in bed, won’t beat her, and won’t run from her. She gets thousands and thousands of replies and can’t find what she is looking for. So she is about to give up when one day the door bell rings. She opens the door and there is a man sittin a wheel chair with no arms or legs. She says," Can I help u?" He says," I am here about your ad." She says," Forgive me but I don’t see how u can help me." He says, " Well number one I don’t have any arms so I can’t beat you. And number two I don’t have any legs so I can’t run from you." She cuts in and says," Well how do u expect to help me with the third thing?" He says, "I rang the door bell didn’t I?"

Its very unfortunate for learned people like those in the CPP to behave like this. It was a political party programme. However,the invited parties were expected to give solidarity messages. You don't need to show up if it'll only be to dare or insult them. The CPP executives should know better. Just as we would judge the NDC and decide their fate,we would judge the CPP. We need level headed people to govern us.
