Someone up there in the OGM should listen to this man and respond to his situation which is unfair.
He shd get the services of Alfred Agbeshie Woyome to help him get this compensation he's good at those cases.Fortunately we have a corrupt govt who also believe in the payment of those monies.
Prof Kwarteng and Prof Lungu, please donate to support this unfortunate servant of thy master for god will richly bless you. Helping this oldman will have a far reaching consequences on the man than the needless history lesso ...

THEY WILL USE YOU, AND KICK U TO THE CURB.
Just pay the guy. Bet some mean spirited person thinks he needed the money.
Sounds more like it. Ghanaians, very much capable.
I agree he should be paid fully and probably compensated for the undue agony he's been put through. More importantly the BNI should launch an investigation to bring the culprits to book. There should be a massive uprising by ...

Ghana has just gone rot. Shame on Ghana. Yet the politicians are paying themselves.
Frank,I feel bad for this man but I don't quite follow his narration,either the reporter made some mistakes or the man cannot remember his days with the government.
If his first encounter with the Fathia was in 1975 when s ...

Ghana is a fail state.
Murderer Rawlings was head of state in 1988. One of his Trokosi brethren stole his benefits.
Politicians will rob the country whiles in office and take home a lump sum in 4 years whiles the rest of the people will work all their lives and go home with nothing. They call it DEMOCRACY.
what a shame if this true.
This country is so CORRUPT, it's just unbelievable. It started long time ago, and doesn't seem to abate in any manner, shape or form. The reason this nonsense continues is because no one goes to jail. Why is America, so g ...

Very inhuman to the oldman,please he deserves better treatment,
This can never happen in a country that has good leaders with planned institutions in place to serve retirees. Peoples who have not offered any service to the nation are rather paid large sums of money because of corruption. ...

CHALEY U BETTER PAY ATTENTION TO THE OLD MAN" FOOLISH LEADERS
why are u people doing that to this old man .he deserve better treatment after serving this country so well to start paying him Mr President
Why should you wait for so long to bring this matter up? In terms of the recent Ghana cedi your entitlements may actually be worth nothing.
So inflation could be adjusted to makeup for currency depreciation. I don't think he waited too long but for the right moment.
Please pay Ahulu his money 1500 Gh cedis ( $ 500.00) and D. K. Poison his 40,000.00 sardine money(from Japan under Kuti Acheampong). The flower girl at Kulungugu is still calling for assistance. Lord touch the heart of the au ...

Present Government should look into this matter and pay this patriot every PESEWA due him with full interest. God is his JUDGE.
We are ungrateful people who claim to be Christians and Muslims. A similar thing happened to my mother-in-law.
Government should please do some thing good about the old man.
Government should please listen to the old man and redeem him.
That is what happens in a country of corruption and in a country where mothers and fathers also do not reason why will you bring 12 children onto this planet earth when can not even take care of yourself.That is what fathers ...

Stories of non payment of benefits to honest and hard working Government employees is a matter of national embarrassment.
Anas needs to investigate those involeved (SSNIT, Controller General, and others).
I wish kwame Nkrumahs is alive. Shame Ghana. Oppression and corruption show why cannot move forward.Mahama open the bank and give to the man what he deserves.
You can't tell me that tye identity of a man who drove Kwame Nkrumah's wife and children for 7 years can be mistaken by anyone. If this is how he was treated then I am not surprise this country seemed to be cursed. We are too ...

So call leaders should give him the money becos of our selfishness in this country we are always in curse.
Pay him his due please. Don't swindle the poor.
Samia and The Nkrumahs beside the State, your assistance and goodwill to this man and family will make beloved President and father a happy man in his grave.
The old gentleman deserves to be paid his due. He faithfully served his nation, and it's a shame that hasn't been receiving pension since his retirement. The gov't has moral and legal obligation to investigate and retroactive ...

Very sad. This man has been treated badly.
Samia any chance of helping this guy out who ferried you and Mum Fathia to and fro. Over to you. Do something.....
Give the old man's money to him immediately, corrupt people!! How dare you deny a man's 20 years of service remittance. You are a disgrace to humanity. Shame on you
Why Ghanaian are misconstrueing their currency and Dr roving the public. Hundred should be hundred and not One illion. Thousands should be thousand or 10 million. The old man should be paid his hard earned entitlement and cal ...

We all ought to chip in to his need, as our politicians only cares about their pockets and their families.
Please Ghanaweb, i wish you could ser up a trust fund for him, so anyone who wants to help can donate into it.
please give the oldman's money to him. I really want to see JJ help him personally because 1988 sounds familiar.
The state should treat this as high priority and sanction those responsible for these kinds of lapses that are needless with damming consequences. Tomorrow next marks the Founder's Day and these kinds of unresolved issues do ...
