Mahama(a Gonja) is following the prescriptions of OIC.You remember a Muslim MP from Gonjaland declared that adulterous women should be stoned to death. Again Boko Haram in Akyem terrorized Muslim women for buying food from Christians yet the IGP(a Gonja Muslim) kept mute. Muslims burnt down a Christian mission house in Atebubu yet the IGP was again silent. AMA banning churches in classrooms, Northern Regional Minister accusing the Christian clergy of encouraging politicians to be corrupt. These are all plans aimed at suppressing Christianity to please the OIC. These are all indicators that Mahama is feverishly handing over Ghana to the Organisation of Islamic Countries for Money. We should remember Islam is useless without direct state support and so Mahama is providing that support to Muslims to grow in Ghana whilst at the same time suppressing Christians. He is doing this because Islam as a religion is useless without direct political/government intervention.

I met you at a Paris train station in 1984 when you journeyed from Belgium. I listened to you lambast JJ Rawlings and I was shocked to the bone when I saw you serving under the same JJ. Why dont you keep quite? The fact that they have confusion in their midst mean they should allow others to abuse their customs? If the Ashanti Chief had given than directive would you hear any of the radio stations, and you, discussing it?

It is funny these cheap girls and boys - prostitutes and wee smokers go round in the name of celebrities insulting even our president. What is their claim of fame? People like Sarkordie goes to pick western rap musical rhythms and rap in some cheap twi vulgar lyrics. That one call Yvonne Nelson who used to be some dirty prostitute at Dansoman all of a sudden feels so great she can insult our president because she is made to feature in these cheap Ghanaian films. Don't they see the difference between them and even Ghanaian actors, but I have never heard a Nigerian actor insult his president. There claim to importance in our society is only a self-wishful thought. Nobody respects them.

Who at all is Nana Akanfuo Binaddo Buhari? Ignore that living ghost Nana let us move forward as a Nation. When Nana Akanfuo Binaddo Buhari and his Npp Motorbikes thieves are looking for the lectures in our Universities, the NDC and President Mahama is gathering the Students, when Nana and his Npp looking for the Doctors to embark on demonstrations at our streets, the NDC and President Mahama is organising the patients, when Nana and his Npp jubilating with the power crises, President Mahama and his NDC is looking for a way to fix it, When Nana Binaddo is calling for WAR and all die be die in Ghana, Our humble President and his NDC is calling for unity, when Nana Binaddo and Kennedy Agyapong is calling their Akanfo warriors to begin the killing of Ga's and Ewe's , the President and his NDC is putting all the tribe's together, when Nana Binaddo and Yaw Osafo Marfo was busily selecting the five resourceful Akan regions to be given the power to rule Ghana, the President and NDC is cooling high tempers and educating the people that we are all the same, when Nana Binaddo is talking about Gov't, the great NDC and President Mahama is thinking of Ghanaians family and their Home's. This is the foundermental different between Nana Akanfuo Binaddo Buhari's Npp and the humble President Mahama.

THE PEOPLE OF GA ARE POOR AFTER ALL THESE YEARS BUT STILL FOLLOWING THE USELESS NDC PARTY.
NDC politicians have stolen enough, now they have started insulting all of us. These days, every thief talks to Ghanaians just anyhow. Fiifi Kwetey taged Ghanaians as '' kindergarten children''. GENERAL AKUFFO run to the Clergy during the 1979 coup because of the respect Ghanaians had for them. Today, NDC has made nonsense of that. they insult the clergy like there is no head on their body. Rmember, how they treated how women, ''3Y3 KANEA, 3Y3 HAAN.'' Recently, it was a call to pass a law that will allow them to stone our women when they make mistakes. Today, NDC is labeling our WOMEN CELEBRITIES WHO ARE NOT YET MARRIED AS PROSTITUTES. NDC is disrespecting our women and Ghanaians in general, and it is getting worse by each passing day. Remember Ayariga's insult of our JOURNALISTS. VOTE MAHAMA AND HIS USELESS AND DISRESPECTFUL NDC OUT IN 2016.

I am surprised by Mr Asante's statement because he should show some respect. To start off with he was the President of the Gadangme council and one must assume that he knows and respects the reason why there is a noise ban in Ga during this period. I will not say too much at this point but will add that will an idea like this be conceivable if it was same in another region say Northern, Ashanti or Volta? This shows that running a country is not an easy job, here we are trying to organise a drink up in a brewery an finding it challenging.

Why are u guys making unnecessary noise over this issue without facts. Can u tell me where the ban on noise making cuts across? I don't think u know that is why you are insulting K. B. Asante. The Gamashie does not have any jusidiction of La lands and their ban ends within their boundaries. Legon, Madina etc are under the La traditional council and to set records straight it is not yet time for the ban on noise making within this boundary yet. So the people of Gamashie has no authority to stop the vigil. Can Asantehene extend his jurisdiction to cape coast? Please let's say it as it is and stop this cheap politics.

I agree with K. B. Asante that our chiefs have failed us and instead of they solving issues affecting the Ga people and stop taking bribes from the government to stop the vigil that is addressing the concerns of all Ghanaians. What have they done about our stolen lands, language, culture, accra community center. They should bow their head in shame. Celebrities bring the vigil to the Trade Fair Center, La.

The Ga Traditional Council have allowed itself to be used by tyrrical governments of this country, from our gaining Independence till now. It is even more painful, when a whole institution is bribed, to behave like fools by a group who for reason of being ........should not have dared to speak to Gas chiefs. Why should The Ga Traditional Council try to stop the Celebrities Group from staging a Virgil on Ga land? The assumption is that the Virgil will hold at a time, when the Gas will be observing the traditional ban on noise making. Let me remind the Ga Traditional Council and apologies like gene, a contributor on this platform, that late Atta Mills was buried a day before the Ga Homowo festival at Osu, a Ga land. What is more sacrilegious to the tradition, buring the dead as against the holding of a Virgil, by a small group of people. Ga Traditional Council, be 'smart' and set your thinking cap on.

Did we have this kind of DUMDUMSOR when Mills and Mahama took over from Kufuor and boasted of GHANA having the world's fastest growing economy? Even at the 2012 IEA Debates, then Caretaker President Mahama boasted of this "fastest growing economy" and went on to campaign for votes on the strength of this enviable achievement that resulted from the good policies of President KUFUOR. Then he assumed power in January 2013 and immediately the FASTEST GROWING ECONOMY began changing into what it has become today, the FASTEST COLLAPSING ECONOMY in the world with DUMDUMSOR as the hallmark of a so-called BETTER GHANA. After just three years of Mahama's rule we have a BITTER GHANA in which a few LOOTERS live comfortably while the majority of Ghanaians wallow in abject poverty. This is the record of the MAHAMA era. Don't try to blame other regimes for the miserable performance of his Government. His is an absolutely non-performing Government .......... the worst that GHANA has had since her independence !!!

The Ga state, unfortunately, has been swallowed by the phenomenal growth of Accra which is the Capital of the Republic of Ghana as well and therefore such a cosmopolitan place encompassing all the ethnicities in Ghana cannot be controlled by mere platitudes from the leaders of the Ga state with no legal frame work! The best solution to the noise abatement custom is, therefore, to confine the ban to around the PALACES only which should be easier to monitor and control and I should think most non Gas will have no problem observing!!

@Nii Laryea, you also got it all wrong!! Mr K B Asante (he is NOT an Ashanti from the Ashanti Region anyway)is also adding his experienced voice first as a Ghanaian and second as a Ga-Dangme citizen who thinks things should be done in order of importance. Accra whether you like it or not has assumed a cosmopolitan nature swallowing almost all of the customs and traditions of the indigenous Gas. Accra is the Capital City of Ghana and it is enjoying all the Rights and Privileges that come with it. When you are in a foreign country and you say you are from Ghana, the question that will be asked is, ARE YOU FROM ACCRA? but when I say I am from Agona Asafo, the question will be IS IT IN ACCRA? So accept whatever comes to you as Gas especially NOISE MAKING at this time of the year. Let your Chiefs and Wulomei modify some of the customs and traditions to meet the exigencies of the day. How many days is the Vigil going to last? Yes! there gargantuan problems facing the Ga State that need the full energies and brains of the Naamei and the Wulomei to solve and this Yvonne Nelson & Co. DUMSOR VIGIL is DEFINITELY NOT ONE OF THEM. Ga chiefs please DON'T STOP THE VIGIL! if you are thinking about the cash, drinks ,and other goodies the government is going to donate to the Ga State during the Homowo Festival, then IT IS VERY SAD AND UNFORTUNATE! I am sure you the Chiefs and your Wulomei enjoy doing things in the dark. I am also sure your sons' and daughters' businesses and jobs are flourishing flourishing in this DUMSOR ERA. Nii Laryea twa omanye aba I hope your'e not one of the NDC SERIAL CALLERS. Mr K B Asante well said!!!!!!!

They cannot reason properly from the president to the smallest. Gas if you think you are supporting these crazy people very soon you will be thrown into the sea and you realize your folly, but by then it is too late. Everybody have seen the uselessness of NDC. You follow NDC at your own peril. Believe it or not.

Insults left, insults right and centre and all sorts of subtle intimadations to cower everybody with insult into submission. That is dangerous - beacuse if you push people too much to the wall - we all know what happen. NDC please allow people to pour out to lesson the burden on their chest. Ehat you are doing is too bad.

Mr. K B Asante has been in goverment for many years and yet he did nothing to help solve the Ga state problems not to mention his own stewardships in ministerial appointments. If he claims to be a real Ga man , like I am from James Town British Accra and knowing about the significance of the ban of noises and drumming during the proposed vigil date, he would have at least sided with the concerns from the Ga Traditional Council. But to my surprise he choose to divert the attention of the Ga council to allow the vigil for his own political reasons against the Mahama regime. Yes every Ghanaian is not happy with the current administration regarding the Dunsor but for a moment we need to respect our Ga tradition. Afterall we don't have real Gas with the name Asante. Tell us if you are hundred percent Ga before you even speak on our behalf.

To those who are talking Jazz about the Ga traditional council must get this , that if this tradition was an Asante or any other tribe tradition they would have stood up against the vigil. If it was an Asante tradition, would it be allowed to go in Kumasi? We are Ghanaians, and we all need to respect our culture.I urge the Gas in Accra to protect their culture by organizing themselves and face all those who will attempt to disrespect our tradition to face them with full force. As for K B Asante , he is a loser who thinks his ideas still counts. I had great respect for him during the early days of the June 4 revolution and the PNDC era, but over the years he has proven himself to be an opportunist to the system and no wonder Prez Mahamah has not bothered to offer him any appointment in his administration. After all , we are all against the Dunsor but that does not mean we should forgo our culture. Arise Gas, Arise!! and forget about this disgruntled KB Asante.

Why? Tadi and Cape Coast are the capital towns for Western and Central region which are believed to be the swing states in Ghanas political landscape.

This is usually a lame argument . A person may have several problems to deal with. Some of them may be more important than others. If a less important one comes up earlier, it must be dealt with, though. There is no indication that the Ga problems cited by the respected statesman can be fixed by the 16th day of May, when the vigil is slated to come off. What prevents the GTC from dealing with that 'less' important 'problem' as it may have most immediate consequences?
