Talking in generalities doesn't help and deceive anybody, the NDC supervised and perpetuated, par excellence the ills that Spew Garbage is lamenting about.

They are crony capitalists and kleptomaniacs who just jumped state guns to seize power to enrich themselves.

Shut the 4uck up Spew Garbage. You are behaving like a dog chasing its tail in a spin and so cognitively dissonant you can't recognize your own shadows. Who in his right mind hand over the state back to you thieves? Apuutai!

Don't pay attention to this Spio guy, he is confused. Some one should ask him if he was not part of the the corruption and nepotism? Time will tell when all the canker of the NDC party comes out.

Corruption is a worldwide phenomenon. It can only be managed to may be lowered but elimination ? Killing all those for corruption did not eradicate it .thus making d June 4th revolution a failure. There is not a single country in this world that is crime free. We can all help to bring it down. There is no need to kill people for it. After all from those who are into Bible aficionados , Adam was corrupted by Eve. God bless you all.

June fourth just became a trip in pure jealousy of the wealth of the ruling class and the use of the security agencies in settling personal scores. In a real revolution, the leadership is bound by disciplined ideology that really seeks to identify the class enemies of the mass of poor, working people. You think the makola woman who is just retailing milk or soap to make a meager profit for putting food on the table at home is the enemy of the working class? AND YET THESE WERE THE PEPOPLE WHO WERE FLOGGED OPENLY BY THE SO-CALLED REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIERS WHILE THE MULTINATIONAL COMPANIES LIKE LEVER BROTHERS, NESTLE, AND THE BIG BANKS CONTINUED TO EXPLOIT OUR PEOPLE. Rawlings himself was not selfless as he and his family became rich and now have become part of the bourgeoisie.THEY SAY TALK IS CHEAP - STOP PREACHING TO US AND LET US FEND FOR OURSELVES IN PUTTING BODY AND SOUL TOGETHER. ALL POLITICIANS ARE CROOKS WHO MOUNT PLATFORMS TO THROW DUST IN THE EYES OF THE SUFFERING MASSES AND END UP GETTING POWER TO BECOME RICH.

Ghana has learnt lessons of our past since 1957 and that is why the incorruptible Akufo Addo NPP govt is in power. For a party that claims to draw some so-called inspiration from the lessons of June 4th, it must be stated, it is a fallacy that does not square with the facts and the truthful reality of the present.
It can be surmised, that June 4th was nothing but a charade to supplant perceived corruption with a much potent, inimical, irresponsible, reckless and very crass kind of corruption, built, nurtured and sustained by heavy doses of the steroids of impunity and unbridled wantonness.
This luxuriant character of debased depravity, degeneracy and debauchery, is what has conspired to plunge Ghana into the abyss of abject poverty, squalor, misery and hopelessness in the midst of plenty.
At this time and at this moment, Ghana, the new Ghana with one loud resounding voice, bellows and screams menacingly, NO MORE.
The institution of degenerate and deviant culture of corruption, impunity, crassness and vulgar principles of societal decay and retrogression MUST FALL, and the time is NOW.

We can not win the fight against corruption if we narrow it to political corruption. This canker has engulfed all aspects of our social fabric. Just go through our airports, police stations, the courts, the schools, the churches, the markets, traditional authorities you name them, and corruption will greet you in the face! Dr. Spio is right.How can the npp even fight this canker when they are the originators of this evil! They are only making ugly noises! Because of Prof.Mill's father for all manstra to the extent that, no one was jailed even in the face of Ghana@50, Hotel dewaa waa, misused of HIPIC funds, Re-denomination of the cedi as as a means of create, loot and share, they turn to tickle themselves as less corrupt than the ndc today. Off course, they can get some few past ndc government officials into jail not even on merit but because, they have the most corrupt judiciary on their side. However, this same corrupt judges frustrated former president Mills effort to jaill the most corrupt regime of president Kuffuor because they were their own. Fellow Ghanaians, wise up! Npp can not fight corruption because, they are neck- deep into it. It was just a propaganda to win back power.

What the heck is Spio-Garbrah talking about "Property Owing Class"? Even in the so called socialist countries, people owe properties. This socialist nonsense should be eradicated from our every day life so people can start to cultivate the habit of working hard to achieve or acquire what they need in life.

Relying on government all the time wont do us any good which in the long run will let the government carry a basket to beg for foreign aid. A government formed by same lazy people whose ideology is this socialist nonsense will always complain about people who work hard to make good leaving and amass worth which is no crime. E&OE.

It's funny when people who have been in public office like Spio and demonstrated high level of corruption and thievery take the podium and pontificate on issues of corruption. Spio should come again. It will be very interesting if his stewardship at the Ministry of Trade and Industry is put under the magnifying glass. People like him should SHUT UP when the subject is being discussed.

Ghanaians didn't have to go through what the Rwandans went through. They learnt a lesson from that and are doing exceptionally well; good for them. Ghanaians on the other hand are very stubborn. They don't mind destroying what they have because Uncle Sam (The US) will come to their aid regardless they think.

June 4th was and still is a national disaster. Nothing positive came from the coup and Ghana has yet to recover from the 19 year's misrule of Rawlings, as Head of State, and the founding of the NDC.

It is the NDC that has not learned any lessons from its own revolution. Recent experience indicates that the only government that has engineered all the corruption in the country is the NDC. Its 27 years in government since 1981 are marked by hooliganism, arrogance, greed and corruption. It is what led Rawlings to call some of the youths in the party greedy bastards and babies with sharp teeth. June 4th is indeed a day of infamy for which Rawlings must be ashamed.

Cheap talk from Rawlings and Spio Garbra.
Tell that apostle of probity and accountability to return to government chest the $5m he collected from the late Nigerian Head of State Saanie Abaacha, and stop disturbing our peace.
It was very good that Francis Poku outwitted Rawlings from another bribery from the late Libyan leader Gaddafi.
Jerry Rawlings is a crook! Ghanaians must watch him carefully. He is a greedy bastard! Mr. Self-righteous Jerry Rawlings!
