For heaven's sake, please leave God out of this. That is how "fama nyame" will come in. The men of God are no different from the bribe taking corrupt judges. Ghana does not require any intervention from God. God gave us the brains and the ability to act and corruption is the act of Ghanaians and not God. It is therefore only Ghanaians and not God that must act. What is required is action now and not some divine intervention that may never come.

Kofi, you are right. It is a fact that these are the same people who are in the front row seats in the numerous churches and mosques. One is better off avoiding them and their so-called 'spiritual leaders' like the plague. Honest citizens should use modern technology to gather evidence to expose the nation-wreckers and continue to shame them.

Well said, Kofi. The priests are part of the problem because they don't seem to understand what the holy work entails. The only thing they seem to value is swelling their numbers which means more revenue to line their pockets. There's nothing like God's intervention for our wilful sins. He wants us to repent of our sins,forsake them and He requires these priests to constantly call the people to repentance. Bishop Palmer Buckle's call for God's intervention is akin to deer facing the headlights. If only these priests would be bold and fearless and tell it like it is as did Jeremiah,Hezekiah , and others ,call their parishioners to repentance all would be well with the nation.

Anything we say about God's intervention is null and void because Almighty God does not have any interest in our Earthly desire and rush for leadership and political and economic confusions caused by ourselves. God is looking for those who are doing his will, not those whose attitudes and actions suppress others in life. Whether we like it or not, God will never come to intervene problems that we Ghanaians have created ourselves and yet fail to solve them ourselves. God had finished intervening our problems on the day He(God) allocated so much minerals, forests, oil, etc., to Ghana, that we have to use our intelligence and skill to manage them well in order to meet our needs in Ghana. How can we destroy what our Father God or Allah had given us or dashed them out to foreigners, out of individual egoistic interests, and still want the same God to continue intervening. Our problems will remain with us until we all change completely from doing the wrong things to the correct things.

Thinking God will come down from the heavens is imbecilic, not to mention moronic.

God simply going to help Ghana is NOT going to happen. When will the morons in Ghana wake up from this deep slumber they have been in and realize that GOD DOES NOT help fools, especially when He has given us brains to use to solve issues. GOD has already given us the answers we need for these multitude of self-inflicted wounds we put on ourselves. These answers are there staring at us right in our faces but we are ignoring them. LAWS THAT BITE NO MATTER WHO GETS IN THE JAWS OF THE LAW. The problem we now see is that people who are put in places to help carry out justice are just as corrupt as the crooks who blatantly break the laws. Most of the judges and people in high authority are worse than the crooks.

if I had a favour to ask GOD, it will be HIM coming to GHANA AND WIPING OUT FROM THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH every Ghanaian above the age of six and leaving just a few older people who are clean.... to help guide the young children to be upright citizens, knowing that if they failed, GOD will be on their asses and wipe them out too.

I know... I know... it's a pipe dream and I know GOD is NOT this mean but boy, do I wish this was possible!!... the way Ghana IS heading now, nothing can help us except this wish of mine or something close to that.

No God can change Ghana. Our situation is beyond any kind of divine salvation, redemption or intervention. No amount of prayers will change anything in this society. Imams are corrupt, pastors\clergymen are thieves, politicians are criminals, students have become armed robbers, most musicians are criminals. There is absolutely no segment of Ghanaian society that is free of corruption. Most members of my own family are thieves. 99.99% of Ghanaians are involved in one form of corrupt deed or another. It's a hopeless case. What we need is a true revolution by the people. We need to let the blood flow again! It's the only solution. Only blood can cleanse Ghana!

SUBJECT:THE LEGAL ISSUES RAISED BY THE ANAS AREMEYAW SECRET VIDEO RECORDINGS OF THE 34 JUDGES/MAGISTRATES AND 100 JUDICIAL STAFFS AND THE LEGAL POSITIONS AS A WAY FORWARD FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF GHANA JURISPRUDENCE.

MAY I RESPECTFULLY AND HUMBLY SUBMIT MY CANDID OPINION ON THE ABOVE RELATED DICEY MATTER FIRST AS A GHANAIAN LAWYER WHO ALSO BELONGED TO OTHER BAR ASSOCIATIONS AND AS INTERNATIONAL LAWYER/LEGAL CONSULTANT.
THAT IT IS A TRITE LAW AND KNOWLEDGE THAT MATTERS/ISSUES THAT HINGED ON THE LAW ARE DEEMED TO SEEN AND TO BE TREATED FROM THE LEGAL "PAR LANCE" PERSPECTIVE POINTS OF LEGAL VIEWS.
THIS IS BECAUSE MATTERS CONCERNING LAW AND MORALS ARE SEEN DIFFERENTLY SO FAR AS THE LAW IS CONCERNED.
IT IS THEREFORE IN THE LIGHT OF ABOVE THAT THE LAWS OF GHANA AS OTHER LAWS OF OTHER COUNTRIES ARE ALSO CODIFIED OR WRITTEN, THERETO.
THAT THE LEGAL SYSTEMS OF GHANA BELONG TO THE "COMMON LAW TRADITION/JURISDICTION" AND FOR THAT MATTER THE "COMMON LAW" IS PART OF THE LAWS OF GHANA AND GHANA CAN THEREFORE RESERVED THE RIGHT TO CITE OR USE THE CASE LAWS OF THE "COMMON LAW JURISDICTIONS".
THAT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND UNITED KINGDOM AS OTHER COUNTRIES BELONGED TO THE "COMMON LAW TRADITIONS/JURISDICTIONS" AND THEREFORE GHANA JUDICIAL AND LEGAL SYSTEMS CAN AND COULD CITE CASE LAWS FROM THESE JURISDICTIONS AS "PERSUASIVE AUTHORITIES", THERETO.
THAT TAKING COGNIZANCE ALSO OF THE FACT THAT GHANA IS A SIGNITORIES TO INTERNATIONAL TREATIES AND CONVENTIONS UNDER THE COMMONWEALTH, UNITED NATIONS, AFRICAN UNION, ECOWAS AND OTHERS, THERETO.
HOWEVER, IT IS SUFFICIENT JUST TO CITE ONLY THESE FEW INSTANCES ABOVE AND TO RESPECTFULLY SUBMIT THAT "ALL APPLICABLE LAWS ARE DEEM TO APPLY TO A CASE AT THE COURTS OF LAW WHENEVER, THERE IS ENSUING LITIGATION, THERETO.
THAT UNDER GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION, CRIMINAL LAW, CRIMINAL PROCEDURE LAW AND THE EVIDENCE ACT INCLUDING THE INTERNATIONAL LAW ARE DEEM TO APPLY TO THE CASE OF ANAS AMEREYAW SECRET VIDEO RECORDINGS OF GHANA 34 JUDGES/MAGISTRATES AND OVER 100 JUDICIAL STAFF PURPORTED TO BE SECRETLY VIDEO BY ANS THAT ALLEGED CORRUPTION AND CORRUPT PRACTICES OF THE JUDGES/MAGISTRATES AND THE JUDICIAL STAFF AS PUBLISHED BELOW BY THE "STARR FM ONLINE".
THAT AS A GHANAIAN LAWYER, INTERNATIONAL LAWYER AND LEGAL CONSULTANT THAT IT BEHOOVES ON ME TO RENDER MY CANDID LEGAL OPINION ON THE MATTER TO HELP IN THE EXPOSITION OF THE LEGAL POSITIONS ON THE MATTER TO HELP ADVANCE THE COURSE/CAUSE OF JUSTICE AND THE RULE OF LAW.
THAT GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION CLEARLY PROVIDES FOR THE PROTECTION OF PRIVACY OF HOMES AND PROPERTY AS FOLLOWS:

GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION
PROTECTION OF PRIVACY OF HOME AND OTHER PROPERTY
"
18. (1) Every person has the right to own property either alone or in association with others.

(2) No person shall be subjected to interference with the privacy of his home, property, correspondence or communication except in accordance with law and as may be necessary in a free and democratic society for public safety or the economic well-being of the country, for the protection of the rights or freedoms of others "

THAT FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF ANY RELATED DOUBTS, WHATSOEVER, THAT I PERSONALLY WILL NEVER CONDONE CRIME AND MOREOVER TO PURPORT TO DEFEND CRIME, HOWEVER, AS GHANAIAN LAWYER, INTERNATIONAL LAW AND LEGAL CONSULTANT IT BEHOOVES ON ME TO HELP STATE THE POSITIONS OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION AND ALL OTHER LAWS THAT ARE DEEM TO APPLY TO THE CASE UNDER REVIEW AND IN VIEW ALSO OF THE POSITIONS OF
THE SAME LAWS PROTECTING ANAS AMEREYAW WHEN HE UNDERTOOK THAT ONEROUS RESPONSIBILITY, THERETO.
THAT IT IS IN VIEW OF SUCH LEGAL ANALYSIS THAT CLEARLY CALLS TO ISSUE TO PROPER AND TRUE INTERPRETATION OF ARTICLE 18 (2) OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION THAT PROVIDES FOR

No person shall be subjected to interference with the privacy of his home, property, correspondence or communication except in accordance with law and as may be necessary in a free and democratic society for public safety or the economic well-being of the country, for the protection of the rights or freedoms of others "

IT IS IN LIGHT OF THE ABOVE THAT MAKES ANAS AMEREYAW CASE VERY DICEY AND THE LEGAL ISSUE THEREFORE TO BE DETERMINED "WHETHER OR NOT BEFORE ANAS EMBARKED ON HIS SECRET VIDEO RECORDINGS INVESTIGATIONS OF THE JUDGES/MAGISTRATES AND OTHER JUDICIAL STAFF HE WAS SUPPOSED TO OBTAIN "A VALID COURT ORDER AS A PROTECTION?"
FURTHER, WHETHER OR NOT HIS PETITION TO H.E.PRESIDENT OF GHANA DR.JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA AND HON.MINISTER OF JUSTICE & ATTORNEY GENERAL OF GHANA MARIETTA BREW APPIAH-OPPONG WHEN HE PRESENTED HIS SECRET INVESTIGATIONS REPORT AND HE WAS GRANTED "IMMUNITY FROM CIVIL AND CRIMINAL PROSECUTIONS" SERVED AS A RELIEF FROM NOT OBTAINING THE VALID COURT ORDER BEFORE EMBARKING ON THE SECRET INVESTIGATIONS, THERETO? OR THE "IMMUNITY FROM CIVIL AND CRIMINAL LIABILITIES HAS BEEN BACK DATED TO COVER THE BEGINNING OF THE SECRET INVESTIGATIONS, THERETO?"
IF YES, THEN WHAT IS THE POSITION OF THE RULE OF LAW? BUT IF THE ANSWER IS NO THEN WHAT IS THE LEGAL IMPLICATIONS, THERETO?
THAT IT IS MY RESPECTFUL AND HUMBLE SUBMISSION THAT ANSWERS TO THE ABOVE RELATED QUESTIONS WILL HELP PAVE WAY TO THE RESOLUTIONS OR DETERMINATIONS OF THE ANAS CASE, THERETO.
THAT THE LEGISLATIVE HISTORY AND LEGISLATIVE INTENT OF ARTICLE 18 CLAUSES1 & 2 TO BE TAKEN A JUDICIAL NOTICE AT WHEN BOTH GHANA JUDGES/MAGISTRATES AND LAWYERS DEDICATED EVERY YEAR JUNE 30 AS "MATYRS DAY" AND DULY OBSERVED SAME SINCE OUR DEAR THREE (3) HIGH COURT JUSTICES AND ARMY OFFICER WERE ALL PICKED UP FROM THEIR VARIOUS HOUSES AND WERE MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD AND BURNT INTO ASHES INCLUDING THE LATE MR.ANKRA FROM AGORTIME- AFEGAME WHO WAS ALSO PICKED FROM HIS HOUSE AT NIGHT AND MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD AND ALSO BURNT IN ASHES. HOWEVER, HIS CASE NEVER RECEIVED NATIONAL ATTENTION AS IT OUGHT TO GAIN AT THE TIME.
THAT REALLY CALLS FOR THE NEED TO PROTECT THE PRIVACY OF HOMES AND PROPERTY.
THAT IN THE CASE OF CLEMENCE ATIASU VRS. THE REPUBLIC (SUIT NO.P22CLEMENT ATIA/9/2015) THAT CAME ON APPEAL AT THE HIGH COURT-2, HO IN THE VOLTA REGION OF GHANA PRESIDED OVER BY HIS LORDSHIP JUSTICE PATRICK BAAYEH THAT SIMILAR ARGUMENTS WERE MADE BY ME WHEN I WAS THE COUNSEL FOR THE APPELLANT WHEN THE POLICE OF THE NARCOTIC UNIT FROM THE VOLTA REGIONAL POLICE HEADQUARTERS WITHOUT "A VALID SEARCH WARRANT" CONDUCTED AN ILLEGAL SEARCH AT 4.30AM AT THE APPELLANT HOUSE AT KPEDZE IN THE VOLTA REGION AT THE TIME THE APPELLANT JUST RETURNED FROM A FUNERAL AT AVE- DAKPA AT 9.30PM WHEN HE INTIMATED THAT SOMEONE POSED A THREAT AGAINST HIS LIFE THAT HE WAS GOING TO SHOW HIM AND AT DAWN POLICE OFFICERS FROM THE NARCOTICS UNIT CAME TO HIS HOUSE AND CONDUCTED ILLEGAL SEARCH AND RETRIEVED "CANIBIS" WHICH TESTED POSITIVE AND HE WAS CHARGED FOR CULTIVATION AND POSSESSION OF "CANIBIS SUBSTANCE".
THAT THE ARGUMENTS I MADE USING ARTICLE 18 (2) OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION AND THE EVIDENCE ACT AND THE CRIMINAL PROCEDURE LAW THAT THE HIGH COURT TO OVER-TURN THE CIRCUIT COURT JUDGEMENT AND TO ACQUIT AND DISCHARGE THE APPELLANT WAS REJECTED BY THE HIGH COURT AND EVEN THE CASE MADE ON THE APPELLANT SERIOUS HEALTH CONDITIONS REPORTED BY HO PRISON MEDIUM AUTHORITIES WAS ALSO REJECTED BY THE HIGH COURT.
HOWEVER, HIS LORDSHIP JUSTICE PATRICK BAAYEH IN HIS JUDGEMENT CLEARLY STATED THAT IT IS ONLY H.E.PRESIDENT OF GHANA DR.JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA ALONE WHO CAN OR COULD GRANT THE APPELLANT PARDON.
IT IS THEREFORE, SURPRISING THAT THE APPELLANT HAS NOT BEEN GRANTED THE PARDON UPTIL NOW.
IT IS THEREFORE, MY RESPECTFUL AND HUMBLE SUBMISSION THAT LEGAL EFFECT TO BE GIVEN IN A FAIR MEANS AND MANNER TO THE INTERPRETATIONS AND APPLICATIONS OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION AND OTHER LAWS OF GHANA TAKING INTO CONTEMPLATION ALSO THE INTERNATIONAL LAW.
IT IS THEREFORE AT THESE RELATED BACKDROPS THAT I AM RESPECTFULLY OBLIGED TO REFER TO THE EVIDENCE ACT OF GHANA AND GHANA COMMUNICATIONS ACT AND HUMBLY SUBMIT AS FOLLOWS:

THAT SECTION 94 OF THE EVIDENCE ACT (ACT 30/60) DULY PROVIDES AGAINST "ILLEGAL SEARCHES, THAT IS, SEARCHES WITHOUT A VALID SEARCH WARRANT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION".
THAT IN THE CASE OF ANAS WHO CONDUCTED A SECRET VIDEO RECORDINGS OF THE JUDGES/MAGISTRATES IN QUESTION WITHOUT OBTAINING "A VALID COURT ORDER" IN VIEW OF THE EXCLUSIONARY EVIDENTIAL RULES THAT "ANY ILLEGAL MATERIAL OBTAINED THROUGH ILLEGAL MEANS THAT THE EVIDENTIAL ILLEGAL MATERIALS ARE EXCLUSIVE FROM THE RECORDS OF THE PROCEEDINGS AND IF THEY ARE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE RECORDS IT SERVED AS "POISONOUS" UNDER THE "DOCTRINE OF THE POISONOUS TREE, A PRINCIPLE OF UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND IN GHANA UNDER THE EXCLUSIONARY EVIDENCE RULE THAT SUCH ILLEGAL OBTAINED MATERIALS TO BE 'EXPUNGED FROM THE RECORDS OF THE PROCEEDINGS".
THEREFORE, THE SECRET VIDEO TAPE RECORDINGS OF ANAS AMEREYAW CLEARLY FALLS UNDER THE EXCLUSIONARY EVIDENCE RULE AND TO BE RENDERED A NULLITY, THERETO.
THAT TAKING ALSO COGNIZANCE OF THE CHARTER OF THE UNITED NATIONS AS FOLLOWS:

UNITED NATIONS CHARTER OF UNIVERSAL DECLARATIONS OF HUMAN RIGHTS
Article 12.

No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.

IT IS THEREFORE FOR THE SAKE OF JUSTICE AND PROTECTIONS OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION AND THE INTERNATIONAL LAW THAT I AM RESPECTFULLY CITING THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA CASE BELOW AS "A PERSUASIVE AUTHORITY" AND ALSO TO HELP GHANA JUDICIAL COUNCIL AND GOVERNMENT OF GHANA TO HELP REFORM GHANA JUDICIAL SYSTEM TO REALLY FIT INTO THE GLOBAL LEGAL AND JUDICIAL SYSTEMS OF THE 21ST CENTURY WORLD TO HELP DEVELOP GHANA JURISPRUDENCE AS A WAY FORWARD, THERETO.

THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOURTH (4TH) AMENDMENTS TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA RIGHTS AND CASE LAW AS AN "ORBITA DICTA" OR PERSUASIVE AUTHORITY:

United States Supreme Court
MAPP v. OHIO, (1961)
No. 236
Argued: March 29, 1961 Decided: June 19, 1961
All evidence obtained by searches and seizures in violation of the Federal Constitution is inadmissible in a criminal trial in a state court. Wolf v. Colorado, 338 U.S. 25 , overruled insofar as it holds to the contrary. Pp. 643-660.
170 Ohio St. 427, 166 N. E. 2d 387, reversed.
A. L. Kearns argued the cause for appellant. With him on the brief was Walter L. Greene.
Gertrude Bauer Mahon argued the cause for appellee. With her on the brief was John T. Corrigan.
Bernard A. Berkman argued the cause for the American Civil Liberties Union et al., as amici curiae, urging reversal. With him on the brief was Rowland Watts.
MR. JUSTICE CLARK delivered the opinion of the Court.
Appellant stands convicted of knowingly having had in her possession and under her control certain lewd and lascivious books, pictures, and photographs in violation of 2905.34 of Ohio's Revised Code. 1 As officially stated in the syllabus to its opinion, the Supreme Court of Ohio found that her conviction was valid though "based primarily upon the introduction in evidence of lewd and lascivious books and pictures unlawfully seized during an unlawful search of defendant's home . . . ." 170 Ohio St. 427-428, 166 N. E. 2d 387, 388. [367 U.S. 643, 644]
On May 23, 1957, three Cleveland police officers arrived at appellant's residence in that city pursuant to information that "a person [was] hiding out in the home, who was wanted for questioning in connection with a recent bombing, and that there was a large amount of policy paraphernalia being hidden in the home." Miss Mapp and her daughter by a former marriage lived on the top floor of the two-family dwelling. Upon their arrival at that house, the officers knocked on the door and demanded entrance but appellant, after telephoning her attorney, refused to admit them without a search warrant. They advised their headquarters of the situation and undertook a surveillance of the house.
The officers again sought entrance some three hours later when four or more additional officers arrived on the scene. When Miss Mapp did not come to the door immediately, at least one of the several doors to the house was forcibly opened 2 and the policemen gained admittance. Meanwhile Miss Mapp's attorney arrived, but the officers, having secured their own entry, and continuing in their defiance of the law, would permit him neither to see Miss Mapp nor to enter the house. It appears that Miss Mapp was halfway down the stairs from the upper floor to the front door when the officers, in this highhanded manner, broke into the hall. She demanded to see the search warrant. A paper, claimed to be a warrant, was held up by one of the officers. She grabbed the "warrant" and placed it in her bosom. A struggle ensued in which the officers recovered the piece of paper and as a result of which they handcuffed appellant because she had been "belligerent" [367 U.S. 643, 645] in resisting their official rescue of the "warrant" from her person. Running roughshod over appellant, a policeman "grabbed" her, "twisted [her] hand," and she "yelled [and] pleaded with him" because "it was hurting." Appellant, in handcuffs, was then forcibly taken upstairs to her bedroom where the officers searched a dresser, a chest of drawers, a closet and some suitcases. They also looked into a photo album and through personal papers belonging to the appellant. The search spread to the rest of the second floor including the child's bedroom, the living room, the kitchen and a dinette. The basement of the building and a trunk found therein were also searched. The obscene materials for possession of which she was ultimately convicted were discovered in the course of that widespread search.
At the trial no search warrant was produced by the prosecution, nor was the failure to produce one explained or accounted for. At best, "There is, in the record, considerable doubt as to whether there ever was any warrant for the search of defendant's home." 170 Ohio St., at 430, 166 N. E. 2d, at 389. The Ohio Supreme Court believed a "reasonable argument" could be made that the conviction should be reversed "because the `methods' employed to obtain the [evidence] . . . were such as to `offend "a sense of justice,"'" but the court found determinative the fact that the evidence had not been taken "from defendant's person by the use of brutal or offensive physical force against defendant." 170 Ohio St., at 431, 166 N. E. 2d, at 389-390.
The State says that even if the search were made without authority, or otherwise unreasonably, it is not prevented from using the unconstitutionally seized evidence at trial, citing Wolf v. Colorado, 338 U.S. 25 (1949), in which this Court did indeed hold "that in a prosecution in a State court for a State crime the Fourteenth Amendment [367 U.S. 643, 646] does not forbid the admission of evidence obtained by an unreasonable search and seizure." At p. 33. On this appeal, of which we have noted probable jurisdiction, 364 U.S. 868 , it is urged once again that we review that holding. 3
I.
Seventy-five years ago, in Boyd v. United States, 116 U.S. 616, 630 (1886), considering the Fourth 4 and Fifth Amendments as running "almost into each other" 5 on the facts before it, this Court held that the doctrines of those Amendments
"apply to all invasions on the part of the government and its employes of the sanctity of a man's home and the privacies of life. It is not the breaking of his doors, and the rummaging of his drawers, [367 U.S. 643, 647] that constitutes the essence of the offence; but it is the invasion of his indefeasible right of personal security, personal liberty and private property . . . . Breaking into a house and opening boxes and drawers are circumstances of aggravation; but any forcible and compulsory extortion of a man's own testimony or of his private papers to be used as evidence to convict him of crime or to forfeit his goods, is within the condemnation . . . [of those Amendments]."
The Court noted that
"constitutional provisions for the security of person and property should be liberally construed. . . . It is the duty of courts to be watchful for the constitutional rights of the citizen, and against any stealthy encroachments thereon." At p. 635.
In this jealous regard for maintaining the integrity of individual rights, the Court gave life to Madison's prediction that "independent tribunals of justice . . . will be naturally led to resist every encroachment upon rights expressly stipulated for in the Constitution by the declaration of rights." I Annals of Cong. 439 (1789). Concluding, the Court specifically referred to the use of the evidence there seized as "unconstitutional." At p. 638.
Less than 30 years after Boyd, this Court, in Weeks v. United States, 232 U.S. 383 (1914), stated that
"the Fourth Amendment . . . put the courts of the United States and Federal officials, in the exercise of their power and authority, under limitations and restraints [and] . . . forever secure[d] the people, their persons, houses, papers and effects against all unreasonable searches and seizures under the guise of law . . . and the duty of giving to it force and effect is obligatory upon all entrusted under our Federal system with the enforcement of the laws." At pp. 391-392. [367 U.S. 643, 648]
Specifically dealing with the use of the evidence unconstitutionally seized, the Court concluded:
"If letters and private documents can thus be seized and held and used in evidence against a citizen accused of an offense, the protection of the Fourth Amendment declaring his right to be secure against such searches and seizures is of no value, and, so far as those thus placed are concerned, might as well be stricken from the Constitution. The efforts of the courts and their officials to bring the guilty to punishment, praiseworthy as they are, are not to be aided by the sacrifice of those great principles established by years of endeavor and suffering which have resulted in their embodiment in the fundamental law of the land." At p. 393.
Finally, the Court in that case clearly stated that use of the seized evidence involved "a denial of the constitutional rights of the accused." At p. 398. Thus, in the year 1914, in the Weeks case, this Court "for the first time" held that "in a federal prosecution the Fourth Amendment barred the use of evidence secured through an illegal search and seizure." Wolf v. Colorado, supra, at 28. This Court has ever since required of federal law officers a strict adherence to that command which this Court has held to be a clear, specific, and constitutionally required - even if judicially implied - deterrent safeguard without insistence upon which the Fourth Amendment would have been reduced to "a form of words." Holmes, J., Silverthorne Lumber Co. v. United States, 251 U.S. 385, 392 (1920). It meant, quite simply, that "conviction by means of unlawful seizures and enforced confessions . . . should find no sanction in the judgments of the courts . . .," Weeks v. United States, supra, at 392, and that such evidence "shall not be used at all." Silverthorne Lumber Co. v. United States, supra, at 392. [367 U.S. 643, 649]
There are in the cases of this Court some passing references to the Weeks rule as being one of evidence. But the plain and unequivocal language of Weeks - and its later paraphrase in Wolf - to the effect that the Weeks rule is of constitutional origin, remains entirely undisturbed. In Byars v. United States, 273 U.S. 28 (1927), a unanimous Court declared that "the doctrine [cannot] . . . be tolerated under our constitutional system, that evidences of crime discovered by a federal officer in making a search without lawful warrant may be used against the victim of the unlawful search where a timely challenge has been interposed." At pp. 29-30 (emphasis added). The Court, in Olmstead v. United States, 277 U.S. 438 (1928), in unmistakable language restated the Weeks rule:
"The striking outcome of the Weeks case and those which followed it was the sweeping declaration that the Fourth Amendment, although not referring to or limiting the use of evidence in courts, really forbade its introduction if obtained by government officers through a violation of the Amendment." At p. 462.
In McNabb v. United States, 318 U.S. 332 (1943), we note this statement:
"[A] conviction in the federal courts, the foundation of which is evidence obtained in disregard of liberties deemed fundamental by the Constitution, cannot stand. Boyd v. United States . . . Weeks v. United States . . . And this Court has, on Constitutional grounds, set aside convictions, both in the federal and state courts, which were based upon confessions `secured by protracted and repeated questioning of ignorant and untutored persons, in whose minds the power of officers was greatly magnified' [367 U.S. 643, 650] . . . or `who have been unlawfully held incommunicado without advice of friends or counsel' . . . ." At pp. 339-340.
Significantly in McNabb, the Court did then pass on to formulate a rule of evidence, saying, "[i]n the view we take of the case, however, it becomes unnecessary to reach the Constitutional issue [for] . . . [t]he principles governing the admissibility of evidence in federal criminal trials have not been restricted . . . to those derived solely from the Constitution." At pp. 340-341.
II.
In 1949, 35 years after Weeks was announced, this Court, in Wolf v. Colorado, supra, again for the first time, 6 discussed the effect of the Fourth Amendment upon the States through the operation of the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. It said:
"[W]e have no hesitation in saying that were a State affirmatively to sanction such police incursion into privacy it would run counter to the guaranty of the Fourteenth Amendment." At p. 28.
Nevertheless, after declaring that the "security of one's privacy against arbitrary intrusion by the police" is "implicit in the concept of ordered liberty' and as such enforceable against the States through the Due Process Clause," cf. Palko v. Connecticut, 302 U.S. 319 (1937), and announcing that it "stoutly adhere[d]" to the Weeks decision, the Court decided that the Weeks exclusionary rule would not then be imposed upon the States as "an essential ingredient of the right." 338 U.S., at 27 -29. The Court's reasons for not considering essential to the [367 U.S. 643, 651] right to privacy, as a curb imposed upon the States by the Due Process Clause, that which decades before had been posited as part and parcel of the Fourth Amendment's limitation upon federal encroachment of individual privacy, were bottomed on factual considerations.
While they are not basically relevant to a decision that the exclusionary rule is an essential ingredient of the Fourth Amendment as the right it embodies is vouchsafed against the States by the Due Process Clause, we will consider the current validity of the factual grounds upon which Wolf was based.
The Court in Wolf first stated that "[t]he contrariety of views of the States" on the adoption of the exclusionary rule of Weeks was "particularly impressive" (at p. 29); and, in this connection, that it could not "brush aside the experience of States which deem the incidence of such conduct by the police too slight to call for a deterrent remedy . . . by overriding the [States'] relevant rules of evidence." At pp. 31-32. While in 1949, prior to the Wolf case, almost two-thirds of the States were opposed to the use of the exclusionary rule, now, despite the Wolf case, more than half of those since passing upon it, by their own legislative or judicial decision, have wholly or partly adopted or adhered to the Weeks rule. See Elkins v. United States, 364 U.S. 206 , Appendix, pp. 224-232 (1960). Significantly, among those now following the rule is California, which, according to its highest court, was "compelled to reach that conclusion because other remedies have completely failed to secure compliance with the constitutional provisions . . . ." People v. Cahan, 44 Cal. 2d 434, 445, 282 P.2d 905, 911 (1955). In connection with this California case, we note that the second basis elaborated in Wolf in support of its failure to enforce the exclusionary doctrine against the States was that "other means of protection" have been afforded "the [367 U.S. 643, 652] right to privacy." 7 338 U.S., at 30 . The experience of California that such other remedies have been worthless and futile is buttressed by the experience of other States. The obvious futility of relegating the Fourth Amendment to the protection of other remedies has, moreover, been [367 U.S. 643, 653] recognized by this Court since Wolf. See Irvine v. California, 347 U.S. 128, 137 (1954).
Likewise, time has set its face against what Wolf called the "weighty testimony" of People v. Defore, 242 N. Y. 13, 150 N. E. 585 (1926). There Justice (then Judge) Cardozo, rejecting adoption of the Weeks exclusionary rule in New York, had said that "[t]he Federal rule as it stands is either too strict or too lax." 242 N. Y., at 22, 150 N. E., at 588. However, the force of that reasoning has been largely vitiated by later decisions of this Court. These include the recent discarding of the "silver platter" doctrine which allowed federal judicial use of evidence seized in violation of the Constitution by state agents, Elkins v. United States, supra; the relaxation of the formerly strict requirements as to standing to challenge the use of evidence thus seized, so that now the procedure of exclusion, "ultimately referable to constitutional safeguards," is available to anyone even "legitimately on [the] premises" unlawfully searched, Jones v. United States, 362 U.S. 257, 266 -267 (1960); and, finally, the formulation of a method to prevent state use of evidence unconstitutionally seized by federal agents, Rea v. United States, 350 U.S. 214 (1956). Because there can be no fixed formula, we are admittedly met with "recurring questions of the reasonableness of searches," but less is not to be expected when dealing with a Constitution, and, at any rate, "[r]easonableness is in the first instance for the [trial court] . . . to determine." United States v. Rabinowitz, 339 U.S. 56, 63 (1950).
It, therefore, plainly appears that the factual considerations supporting the failure of the Wolf Court to include the Weeks exclusionary rule when it recognized the enforceability of the right to privacy against the States in 1949, while not basically relevant to the constitutional consideration, could not, in any analysis, now be deemed controlling. [367 U.S. 643, 654]
III.
Some five years after Wolf, in answer to a plea made here Term after Term that we overturn its doctrine on applicability of the Weeks exclusionary rule, this Court indicated that such should not be done until the States had "adequate opportunity to adopt or reject the [Weeks] rule." Irvine v. California, supra, at 134. There again it was said:
"Never until June of 1949 did this Court hold the basic search-and-seizure prohibition in any way applicable to the states under the Fourteenth Amendment." Ibid.
And only last Term, after again carefully re-examining the Wolf doctrine in Elkins v. United States, supra, the Court pointed out that "the controlling principles" as to search and seizure and the problem of admissibility "seemed clear" (at p. 212) until the announcement in Wolf "that the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment does not itself require state courts to adopt the exclusionary rule" of the Weeks case. At p. 213. At the same time, the Court pointed out, "the underlying constitutional doctrine which Wolf established . . . that the Federal Constitution . . . prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures by state officers" had undermined the "foundation upon which the admissibility of state-seized evidence in a federal trial originally rested . . . ." Ibid. The Court concluded that it was therefore obliged to hold, although it chose the narrower ground on which to do so, that all evidence obtained by an unconstitutional search and seizure was inadmissible in a federal court regardless of its source. Today we once again examine Wolf's constitutional documentation of the right to privacy free from unreasonable state intrusion, and, after its dozen years on our books, are led by it to close the only [367 U.S. 643, 655] courtroom door remaining open to evidence secured by official lawlessness in flagrant abuse of that basic right, reserved to all persons as a specific guarantee against that very same unlawful conduct. We hold that all evidence obtained by searches and seizures in violation of the Constitution is, by that same authority, inadmissible in a state court.
IV.
Since the Fourth Amendment's right of privacy has been declared enforceable against the States through the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth, it is enforceable against them by the same sanction of exclusion as is used against the Federal Government. Were it otherwise, then just as without the Weeks rule the assurance against unreasonable federal searches and seizures would be "a form of words," valueless and undeserving of mention in a perpetual charter of inestimable human liberties, so too, without that rule the freedom from state invasions of privacy would be so ephemeral and so neatly severed from its conceptual nexus with the freedom from all brutish means of coercing evidence as not to merit this Court's high regard as a freedom "implicit in the concept of ordered liberty." At the time that the Court held in Wolf that the Amendment was applicable to the States through the Due Process Clause, the cases of this Court, as we have seen, had steadfastly held that as to federal officers the Fourth Amendment included the exclusion of the evidence seized in violation of its provisions. Even Wolf "stoutly adhered" to that proposition. The right to privacy, when conceded operatively enforceable against the States, was not susceptible of destruction by avulsion of the sanction upon which its protection and enjoyment had always been deemed dependent under the Boyd, Weeks and Silverthorne cases. Therefore, in extending the substantive protections of due process to all constitutionally unreasonable searches - state or federal - it was [367 U.S. 643, 656] logically and constitutionally necessary that the exclusion doctrine - an essential part of the right to privacy - be also insisted upon as an essential ingredient of the right newly recognized by the Wolf case. In short, the admission of the new constitutional right by Wolf could not consistently tolerate denial of its most important constitutional privilege, namely, the exclusion of the evidence which an accused had been forced to give by reason of the unlawful seizure. To hold otherwise is to grant the right but in reality to withhold its privilege and enjoyment. Only last year the Court itself recognized that the purpose of the exclusionary rule "is to deter - to compel respect for the constitutional guaranty in the only effectively available way - by removing the incentive to disregard it." Elkins v. United States, supra, at 217.
Indeed, we are aware of no restraint, similar to that rejected today, conditioning the enforcement of any other basic constitutional right. The right to privacy, no less important than any other right carefully and particularly reserved to the people, would stand in marked contrast to all other rights declared as "basic to a free society." Wolf v. Colorado, supra, at

The intervention is at work already, and that is what we are hearing today of the deeds of the people who are helping in causing harm to Ghana.

The actions coming out are the hand work of God manifesting through the destined people of God who are determined to expose all evil practices in Ghana without fear.

These are the people called the real godly people, because they can sacrifice their lives to expose any thing evil which the so called ceremonial pastors, prophets, bishops, priests etc are not doing because they foolishly want to win the hearts of the evil ones who hold positions in the communities.

Jesus would not have been killed if he had kept quiet and allowed evil practices to continue. May God bless Anas, because he is doing what the so called minsters of God fear to do. Even in their congregations, one may ask if they can pinpoint the wrongs of the people they pastor.

They can not pinpoint like what Anas had done. What a shame, Anas is more a pastor that the fearful ones who minister in the churches and in the mosques. God has exposed the weakness of the pastors, imams and even their failures of calling themselves as religious leaders.

Again it is real that God who had listened to the cry of some people in Ghana and had intervened already, and that is what we all see today. Thanks to ALLAH/GOD.

Father Buckle, God has given us all what we need to govern ourselves well. There is no knowledge in short supply in Ghana. God cannot send angles from heaven to come and run things for us . We have to do it ourselves. God has no part to play in this devilish enterprise that we have taken upon ourselves. We are just not ready to govern ourselves despite Kwame Nkrumah's assertion that the black man is capable of managing his own affairs. We have proven that the black man is capable of mismanaging his own affairs. Put a thousand black men together with one white person as the boss and they will work perfectly. But remove the white man and put a black man there as the head and the next minute there will be problems all over. I still have my doubts as to whether the black man is part of God's creation and not some freak of accident? Why is it that wherever the black man is, there is unacceptable level of corruption filth, squalor and deprivation. Even when a black man is sitting in an ocean of wealth, he still manages to drag himself unto the shores of poverty? People don't want to hear it but it is the basic truth and no matter how much we hate to hear it, it still remains the truth. We have an economy which is growing at 8.5% during a world wide financial recession and without oil. Then six years down the line, when there is no recession and we are producing oil, we are struggling to do 3.5% GDP growth (even with the help of IMF)then what kind of human beings are we? For me I am not convinced that the blackman is part of creation. We came into existence by some freak of accident. You can say what you want that is my view and nobody can change it. Tell me one example where the black race as a collective have done something equal or better than the white folks.

Everything God. With all the thousands churches in Ghana, praying 24 hours in churches , you still want God to come down and change you. Where are your brains he gave you. Churches are rather fuelling corruption by saying forgive and forget when there is no justice. Selling items in churches and living luxurious life.

The nation does not need God's intervention to bring bribery and corruption to a screeching halt! What the nation, especially, your parishioners need right NOW is an SOS CALL TO FULL REPENTANCE because majority Ghanaians, circa 70%, identify themselves with the Christian faith.
The prevalence of bribery and corruption is a systemic failure of monumental proportion and the governing administration and organised religion especially Christianity cannot simply walk off without some degree of complicity and culpability. The Church is failing because though their congregation numbers are swelling up there's also a worrisome increase in immorality and all forms of vice. It appears the Church leadership just like "Asomasi" are only interested in the swelling of the congregation numbers because of the increased revenues but not in their eternal salvation. God will not force anyone to Heaven and won't do for us what we can do for ourselves. Althoug He's merciful and full of Grace and sent His only Begotten Son to die to save us from a permanent separation from Him it's only through the PROCESS of REPENTANCE that we can be cleansed from our sins, be justified and live with Him again forever. It's the duty of the priests to call people to repentance including the President. The President is not above reproach because he's also a child of God who needs repentance every now and then. Don't deceive Christian Ghana that because of Christ Atonement we can do anything and go to Heaven and that we don't have to do anything of ourselves. That's grossly misleading. THE ONLY INTERVENTION WE NEED TO SAVE OURSELVES FROM CORRUPTION IS NOT GOD'S INTERVENTION BUT A CALL TO REPENTANCE.
Repentance is a process that involves1. Recognizing our sins 2. Feeling sorrow for the sins 3. Forsaking the sin 4. Confessing 5. Making Restitution 6.Forgiving others, and 7. Keeping God's commandments. We all have need of repentance.There's no royal road to Heaven because "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God".(Romans 3:23).

What have you people in moral society done apart from doing politics? Leave God out of this. You pastors, prophets, evangelists etc have failed. You stand on the pulpit and preach prosperity so what do you expect? Some of you mount the pulpit and insult the President instead of preaching what matters. It is you who has failed us. All these corrupt people sit in the front pews of the various churches, lavishing gifts on pastors. Has any pastor asked these people where the money is coming from???

I don't know why we Africans think that every problem has to be solved by God. If that is how our problems would be solved then there is no point having institutions. The institutions are not working let us deal with that and stop bothering God. For how long have we been praying for God to solve our problems? Almost everybody in Ghana go to church or mosque but we do worse things after church or mosque. Religion is even contribution to the problems we have now. If you apply the rules you are an unforgiving person so why the rules if we can't apply them?

Papa Osofo, just be calm. God has already ordained his anointed one, Nana Akufo-Addo to rescue Ghanaians from bondage but the NDC through election fraud stole the ballot to impose themselves on Ghanaians. All the corruption, thievery in govt high places as well as the bribery in our courts involving our high court judges and justices points to the fact that most of these judges are all NDC apparatchiks who were appointed by Rawlings during his tenure as leader. But God is not asleep; he made us see and experience all these things to open our eys so we may rise up and fight what's evil in our society by his own will. We're gradually getting the necessary insight and enlightenment to get where we ought to be as a nation. May God bless our Homeland Ghana. Amen!

Rev yu might be right but this country we are suppose to be learning from the elderly,
but what yu guys teaching us, nothing . what yu teach us in church is get rich. that's all. the Indians who don't even go to church teach their children morality, patriotism, and wisdom.
what do we see in gthana, they glorify those who drive nice cars, we consider those criminals as smart people.who come to church and are given the front seat. etc etc I don't want to fill a page, but Ghana keep getting useless every day.where are does days a teacher could discipline a kid in school for disobedience, or not pulling his weight...where are those days.

we want to learn from the the west. we cant learn from them. because
1) they no the right from the wrong, but we don't.
2) they don't have to steal the country seed money, but we have to
3)Let me give yu a sinario. My first time in London, no body ever asked me of my train or bus ticket, yet every day I use the train. which I bought an oyster ticket for one month. Why ...they no that no rational person will join a train without ticket. can yu do this in Ghana,???

NO,,,,WHY.. BECAUSE OF OUR ATITUDE . ISNT IT.??
IT MEANS WE DONT NO RIGHT FROM WRONG.
I think the blackman by nature just need force to do the right thing...

Democracy it self for us is a piece of crap...
