"...but if your handlers at the Embassy there in Berlin will apologize to Mr. Musah in writing, and officially introduce him to you, then I wouldn't have to complain to the President"

your article is much ado about nothing as your import seems to blackmail the lady owing to your sentenced quoted above. Besides, you seem to crave favor for yourself and your "mentor" but your move is cheap and infantile, to say the least.

Before you rash into refering to my move as "cheap" and "infantile", please spare a few minutes and read the two other articles--on Ghanaians a abroad page-- (the two articles posted a few days ago with a German flag, written by non-Ghanaians--one of them a white journalist--who expressed shock at the way the Ambassador picked on this veteran Ghanaian journalist (among his colleagues white journalists) and asked him to justify his presence at an event they were all invited--to promote Ghana's potentials to investor-community in Germany...My piece is relatively charitable--considering the language used by other two writers who witnessed the incident. So please just read two of those other articles and then you will understand our concerns here.

Alhassan, what is conspicuously missing in your article is the reason why the Ambassador is picking on Mr Musah. I guess you could have asked Mr Musah a few questions as to how and why the 'disrespect' all started which would have given more meaning to this report (or is it request or threat). Another grey area in the discourse is why Mr Musah keeps calling and reporting to YOU whenever he felt peeved by Her Excellency's 'disrespectful behavior' toward him. Couldn't he have initiated some form of amicable settlement through the embassy staff in Germany? Why are you the one to take the matter up and report to the President? It is also not clear what action the President is presumed to take if he is told that his appointee Ambassador Dansoah has disrespected Mr Musah by saying he is not a journalist. At this time that the President is bedeviled by scores of economic and other governance issues I think it will only be wise to spare him this kind of pettiness.

Mike, thanks for your comments. Please read the two previous articles--Her Excellency humiliated this Gentleman in the presence of his fellow journalists...all of them white...!!
Surprisingly, one of the white journalists has written a similar letter (though more strong in tone against Her Excellency's behaviour). If you see a German journalist writing to defend a black African journalist, then it's a serious issue. Please look for two other articles down the list--with a German flag, and read, then you will appreciate that it's NOT pertinness...!!

My learned brother, with all respect, mine is a re-action to two other articles posted a few days before--on this same section of the Ghana web. Hence the canty details. Please search for "German Ambassador to Germany Runs Riot"--there is also another article surprisingly written by a WHITE GERMAN journalist--against Her Excellency's behaviour--if you've lived in Germany before and experience racial humiliation, it should then make sense to you why we and even the German journalist should jump to the veteran journalist's defence--please send me your email, and I will share with you the acerbic article wriiten by the German journalist--in protest!!

However, I appreciate your opinion that this could issue could rather be directed to the Foriegn Minister.

Yours is self-serving. You know Mahamah, the visionless president and Ayariga, the low grade minister... so what?

Thanks, Mike. Let me explain that I'm so far the third to write in re-action to the unfortunate incident...My article left those details because I was intentionally threading a diplomatic line--When you search for the articles written by a German journalist and an Ghanaian journalist--both of whom happen to be at the lattest event where the incident occured, you will appreciate the acerbic tone in their articles...! Please search for " Ghana Ambassador to Germany Runs Riot". If I can get your email, I will also forward you the article written against the Ambassador's behaviour by THE WHITE Journalist. But thanks for your reminder though, this should rather be directed to the Foriegn Affairs Minister.

Thanks, Alhassan, it makes more sense to me now. I didn't know there was such a precursor to your article.

Thanks, Mike. The fact that the Embassy responded on modernghana.com--in a tone carefully calibrated to steer off the true fact tells you that the Ambassador has realized there was an issue..!

Whoever wrote this article has an over bloated sense of importance. He and whoever he thinks he is defending. Just wasted my time reading this rubbish

This ambassador should be called back home and never be given any appointment again abroad. She is simply a disgrace to Ghana and whatever she thinks she stands for.

How should anyone address this woman H.E. How sad!

And which president will have time for this nonsense? You can complain to President Mahama but I suspect this will not get anywhere near even his gardener.
