  If those before you did not succeed to deliver the expectations of Ghanaians, what makes you think that you can succeed? It is easier said than done.

  I still have one eye open like the crocodile even in sleep. The reason the crocodile has endured the test of time when all others have failed.

  Yes, Mr. President, that is exactly what Nkrumah wanted for us. United people regardless of the language we speak. A unitary Government and united state and rapid economic development. The efforts were derailed by some who preached federalism, the result was the coup that overthrew him and taught us that he was a communist, they derailed the economic emancipation of Ghana. Mr. President, you are not a communist neither was Nkrumah, you are sounding more like him. God bless your efforts.

  Subject: MESSAGE OF GOODWILL, GOOD SUCCESS, CONGRATULATIONS, HAPPY 60TH INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS AND GOD BLESSINGS.
  
  DEAR H.E.PRESIDENT OF GHANA NANA ADDO DANKWA AKUFO ADDO, GOVERNMENT AND GOOD PEOPLE OF GHANA,
  TO RESPECTFULLY SEND THIS MESSAGE OF GOODWILL, GOOD SUCCESS, CONGRATULATIONS HAPPY 60TH INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS AND GOD BLESSINGS ON THIS HISTORIC DAY.
  THAT 60 YEARS TODAY, MARCH 6, 2017 THAT GHANA EMBARKED ON THE JOURNEY OF INDEPENDENCE AS THE QUEST OF PEOPLE ALL OVER AS NATIONS ASPIRED AND STRUGGLED FOR INDEPENDENCE EVEN AS ENDOWED BY GOD ALMIGHTY THAT WHERE EVER GOD IS "THERE IS LIBERTY AND FREEDOM ".
  "
  
  2 Corinthians 3:17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the...
  biblehub.com/2_corinthians/3-17.htm
  New International Version ... Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. ... Wherever the Lord's Spirit is, there is freedom. ... When any person is converted to God, then the veil of ignorance is taken away."
  
  
  AND THAT WAS THE CASE OF THE PEOPLE OF GHANA ON MARCH 6, 1957 WHEN GHANA ATTAINED INDEPENDENCE FROM GREAT BRITAIN AND BECAME INDEPENDENT COUNTRY.
  HOWEVER, AFTER INDEPENDENCE GHANA REMAINED A MEMBER OF THE COMMONWEALTH, ECOWAS, AFRICAN UNION. UNITED NATIONS AND ALSO SIGNED BI_LATERAL AND MULTI_LATERAL AGREEMENTS WITH COUNTRIES AND OTHERS.
  THAT THE NOTION THAT POLITICAL INDEPENDENCE WITHOUT ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE IS MEANINGLESS STILL HOLDS GROUNDS IN THE 21ST CENTURY WORLD.
  THEREFORE GHANA IN HER QUEST TO ACHIEVE ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE IS A MEMBER OF THE WORLD BANK, IMF, AFRICA DEVELOPMENT BANK AND OTHERS.
  THAT THE FRAMERS OF GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION REALIZING THAT THERE IS STRENGTH IN UNITY IN DIVERSITY AND ALSO THAT IT IS ONLY THAT DEVELOPMENT CAN BE ATTAINED THROUGH PEACE AND PEACEFUL CO_EXISTENCE OF OTHER COUNTRIES .
  THATTHE PRINCIPLE THAT INTER_DEPENDENCE IS THE SMART ORDER OF DIPLOMACY DISPENSATION IN THE 21ST CENTURY PROVIDED UNDER THE PREAMBLE TO GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION AS FOLLOWS, AMONG OTHERS, "___THE PEOPLE OF GHANA SHALL LIVE IN PEACE AND MAKE FRIENDS WITH ALL PEOPLE OF THE WORLD___".
  
  THE CONSTITUTION
  OF THE
  REPUBLIC OF GHANA
  IN THE NAME OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD
  We the People of Ghana,
  IN EXERCISE of our natural and inalienable right to establish a framework of government which shall secure for ourselves and posterity the blessings of liberty, equality of opportunity and prosperity;
  IN A SPIRIT of friendship and peace with all peoples of the world;
  AND IN SOLEMN declaration and affirmation of our commitment to;
  Freedom, Justice, Probity and Accountability;
  The Principle that all powers of Government spring from the Sovereign Will of the People;
  The Principle of Universal Adult Suffrage;
  The Rule of Law;
  The protection and preservation of Fundamental Human Rights and Freedoms, Unity and Stability for our Nation;
  DO HEREBY ADOPT, ENACT AND GIVE TO OURSELVES THIS CONSTITUTION."
  
  THAT RESPECTFULLY IT IS ALSO THE COLLECTIVE OBLIGATIONS OF THE GOVERNMENT AND THE GOOD PEOPLE OF GHANA TO WORK TIRELESS TOGETHER WITH OTHER COUNTRIES TO HELP GHANA TO ATTAIN ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE TO GIVE THE TRUE MEANING OF EFFECT TO FREEDOM OF WANTS, POVERTY, HUNGER, DISEASE AND IGNORANCE AND TO HELP BUILD TOGETHER A VIBRANT PROSPEROUS ECONOMY WHERE THE PURSUITS OF HAPPINESS WILL BE THE ORDER OF THE DAY.
  THEREFORE, IN VIEW OF THE ABOVE IT IS VERY WORTHY AND BEFITTING FOR THE PEOPLE OF GHANA TO CELEBRATE GHANA 60TH HAPPY INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY.
  CONGRATULATIONS !
  GOD BLESS GHANA AND LONG LIVE GHANA !
  VERY TRULY YOURS,

  WHY HAS THE ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE OF GHANA NOT MATERILIZED, BECAUSE THE SO CALLED EDUCATED AND THE DOMBO-BUSIAdanwuah-BAFFOUR AKOTO TRADITION IMMEDIATLY AFTER THE COUP STAGED BY ARMED CRIMINALS IN MILTRAY UNIFORMS IN 1966, PLACED THEIR HOPES ON FOREIGNERS WHO HAD EXPLOITED THE NATION FOR HUNDRED YEARS AND FOR THEM TI COME AND DO EVERYTHING IN THE COUNTRY FOR THEM.
  
  IT IS BECAUSE THESE MEN AND WOMEN AND TODAY THEIR CHILDREN CONTINUE TO LIVE A FOOLS PARADISE FOR THE PAST FIFTY ONE YEARS, THAT, THE STATE OF GHANA CONTINUES TO BE ECONOMIC BACKWARD, UNDERDEVELOPED AND HEAVILY INDPTED POOR COUNTRY.
  
  GHANA AGAIN HAS NOT ECONOMIC DEVELOPED, BECAUSE, THE SO CALLED POLITICAL CRIMINALS WHO RAN THE NATION HAD ONETHING IN MIND, HOW TO MANIPULATE AND STEAL THE SCANTY FUNDS OF THE NATION AND T LOOT STATE PROPERTIES FOR THEIR OWN GREEDY LIFESTYLES.
  
  PRESIDENT AKUFFO ADDO BELIEVE IT OR NOT,ONCE THE SO CALLED EDUCATED WITH BIG DEGREES AND PHD TITLES DO NOT HAVE TECHNOLOGICAL AND INNOVATIVE SKILLS TO TURN THE WHEELS OF INDUSTRIALIZATION AND ONLY CONTINUE TO PLACE THEIR BURDEN ON THE POOR HARDWORKING COCOA FARMERS AND UNSKILLED MINE WORKERS TO EARN THE NATIONS HARD CURRENCY TO SRRVICE NATIONAL BUDGETS, IMPORTATION OF COMMODITIES, FOOD ITEMS AND EXPENSIVE LUXURY CARS FOR THEIR NON PRODUCTIVE WORK IN THE COUNTRY, NEVER SHOULD YOU EXPECT THE NATION TO BE ECONOMIC INDEPENDENT FOR THE NEXT HUNDRED YEARS.
  
  LASTLY ARE YIU JUSTIFIED TO APPOINT THIRTY SIX MINISTERS OF STATE IN A POVERTY STRICKEN COUNTRY, GHANA.
  
  
  HOW WILL THE NATION GHANA BE IN THE POSITION TO ACHIEVE ITS ECONMIC INDEPENDENCE WITH SUCH A HUGE MINSTERIAL APPOINTMENTS.
  
  ARE GHANAIANS NOT STILL SICK IN MINDS AFTER THE OVERTHROW A DYNAMIC GOVERNMENT OF THE CPP, FIFTY ONE YEARS AGO.
  
  DIDN'T YOUR FATHER AKUFFO ADDO INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING SELF PROCLAIMED POLITICIANS AT THT TIME LIKE JOE APPIAH,V.C.R.C CRABBE, DR ANFON, JOE APPIAH,VICTOR OWUSU, R.R.AMPONSAH,DOMBO, BUSIA, KWAPONG,OFOSU APPIAH.BOEHEN,OFORI ATTA, THE SO CALLED INTELLECTUAL FOOLS HAIL THT CHANGE OF ILLIEGAL GOVERNMENT IN GHANA.
  
  BELIEVE IT OR NOT, HISTORY WILL JUDGE THESE CRIMINALS, ROGUES AND CROOKS WHETHER DEAD OR ALIVE FOR THE HARM AND WRONG THEY HAVE INFLICTED ON THE PRESENT AND THE NEXT GENERATION FOR THE PAST FIFTY ONE YEARS IN GHANA.
