  If you look at the 5 cedi note you would see the picture of the Big six; so called because they were prepared to die for Ghana to achieve independence for which they were imprisoned. Of the six 3 were Akyems and a fourth was married to an Akyem who became the first lady.
  
  Why then do you hate Akyems?
  
  J. B. Danquah stood for president and was not successful. William Ofori-Attah stood for president and was not successful. Akufo Addo who is half Akyem has his story unfinished.
  
  Akyems make up more than half of the population of the Eastern Region. Today because of negative government developmental practices from independence some have become so proud that they can look at Akyems condescendingly.
  
  Over the last 100 years revenue from the Akyem-Akwatia Diamond mine, alluvial gold, cocoa and palm oil from Akyem have been used to develop the whole of Ghana including providing scholarships for some Ghanaians.

  Hahahahaha. Are those on top illegal mexican refugees to USA. With all these passengers and we still cannot maintain our rail system. Why should this dangerous ride be allowed? This is where the head must be fired.

  After our independence, Pres. Nkrumah bought "BLUE TRAIN" and there was joy to it. People patronized it with joy. After his over-throw, no gov't has ever thought of the rails and the trains in that country just because good cars are always available to the officers who forget that they are servants of the public. Now that we have oil, this transport system MUST BE LOOKED INTO. Such assets of the nation should never be left to rot.

  WE CLAIM TO BE EDUCATED, AND TO SEE GHANA RAILWAY IN DELORABLE STATE, CLERLY INDICATES THAT; WE ARE THE WORST ENEMIES OF OURSELVES.
  
  THIS PROVES THAT,GHANA HAS STILL NOT GOT TRUE POLITICIANS WITH THEIR PEOPLE AT HEART AND FULLY DETERMINED TO HELP PROMOTE ECONOMIC GROWTH AND DEVELOMENT AFFECTING ITS PEOPLE.
  
  WHAT DID THEY TWO MPS, OWUSU-ANKOMAH AND GHARTEY DID AS STATE MINISTERS FOR THE REHABILITATION OF THE GHANA RAILWAY-NOTHING.
  
  THEY ONLY ENJOYED THE SWEAT AND LABOUR OF THE VULKNERABLE RIDING ON EXPENSIVE LUXURY CARS AND JEEPS WHILE THEIR VERY CONSTITUNCIES WERE OF BROKEN INFRASTRUCTURE AND IN SHAMBLES.
  
  IN MY OPINION IT IS MANS TEMPERANT THAT DECIDES HIS FATE.
  
  I DO NOT BELIEVE THEREFORE THAT,HE MUST NECESSARILY CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THE PATH WHICH LEADS ONLY DOWNWARDS.
