Expensive shit-bombing politics (2)

Listen up, ye great people of Ghana:

“Speak truth to power; speak the truth and ye shall not only free thy minds and thy physical bodies and thy chained souls…but that thou shall live also…”

Ye great people of Ghana:

“Speak the truth without blame or judgment…without fear or favor…and shame the political devil…For truth is the soul and engine of social justice…”

Ye great people of Ghana:

“For truth is not necessarily the opposite of lies…of falsehoods…of equivocation…of prevarication…but a true, stable, genuine, spitting image of itself?”

Ye great people of Ghana:

“For truth and politics are natural if mortal enemies: Say what?”

Therefore, ye great people of Ghana:

“Put on the iron shirt of truth and chase out the political devil even as Max Romeo sings ‘Chase the Devil’…”

Ye great people of Ghana:

“It is claimed that unlike cleanliness which is said to be next to godliness, truth is godliness itself…truth is god itself, the supreme substance of a patriotic conscience…”

Ye great people of Ghana:

“Emancipate yourself from mental slavery…none but ourselves can free our minds’…”

Bob Marley…Marcus Garvey…“Redemption Song”…Roots reggae…Conscious lyricism…

Bob Marley’s “Blackman Redemption”…Peter Tosh’s “Mama Africa” and “Equal Rights”…

John Lennon’s “Imagine”…Bob Marley’s “One Love”…James Brown’s “I am Black/I am Proud”…

KRS-I’s Stop the Violence Movement’s “Self-Destruction”…

Wanlov da Kubolor’s “FOKN (“fucked”) country”…Yearning for U2’s “Beautiful Day”…

Dr. Molefi Kete Asante’s “Rooming in the Master’s House”…

Oh yes, Sam Cooke’s prophetic “A Change is Gonna Come” is possible only through the people and not through political parties…

Not through Akua Donkor, President Mahama, Nana Akufu-Addo, Paa Kwesi Nduom…

Certainly not through the poisonous criminality of our ruling class:

Sexy Gentle Giant, Kufuor’s Panama Papers…

Pope Francis Akasanomaa, Rawlings’ snatches Abacha’s Sakawa or blood money…

High Priest Rawlings running away from Abacha’s ghost and Antoa Nyame and his fractured conscience into the welcoming embrace of polygraph test…

Holy Mary, Rawlings being deserted by Kwamina Ahwoi and Nana Ato Dadzie…Totobi Kwakye missing in action…

Now the Nigerians are coming…Now President Buhari is coming…Peter Tosh’s “Downpressor Man” seh…to Rawlings, Kufuor, Mills, Mahama, Paa Kwesi Nduom, Akua Donkor…and all of them:

“Downpressor man, where are you gonna run to?... “You gonna run to the sea…the sea will be boiling… “You gonna run to the rocks…the rocks will be melting… “You gonna run to the Lord beggin’ to hide you… “You can’t run, you can’t bribe Jah-Jah… “You can’t bribe no one…them no want no money… “That money get funny…

Now Rawlings’ unsleeping conscience is nagging…restless…hiding…hiding…and hiding…

Now Rawlings is passing the buck of the circumstances and whereabouts of Nigeria’s money, Abacha’s stolen money, to living ghosts, his erstwhile colleagues…Kwamina Ahwoi, Nana Ato Dadzie…alleged Nkrumahist-turned-crony capitalists who have become filthy rich at the expense of the nation…of national development…of the people…of their wicked consciences…

Dear readers, now listen to Rawlings in his own words:

“My colleagues knew about it I didn’t know why I should be keeping these things secret…Many years down the line when I fell out with some of my colleagues they decided to get poisonous, two of them wrote a book…and inserted somewhere when it was absolutely not necessary, something about Gwarzo’s supposed $5 million just to poison my name…

Dear readers, now also listen to Nana Ato Dadzie and Kwamina Ahwoi in their own words:

“Nigerian newspaper published an unsubstantiated story that President Rawlings had received US$5 million from the Nigerian intelligence capo, Chief Gwarzo, in support of his Presidential campaign for the 1996 elections…

“We wish to state that, the two of us worked very closely with President Rawlings. We were two of his closest confidantes. The opportunity he gave us to serve the nation was a very rare one indeed which we will forever cherish.”

Where is the truth between these two oppositional statements?

Here is it, the gospel truth is somewhere and everywhere one turns:

The Lion of Gonja, Mahama’s Ford Expedition “Gift”…

Comic superstar politician, Akua Donkor’s party office made the Maid of Honor of a devious arsonous shit-bombing…

Crazy judgment debts…

These crazy-bald-head politicians with their wicked intentions to destroy the human race…Now we know!

CPP’s Opana and Kweku Ananse Freddie Blay and double agent Kweku Baako, Jr., NPP…double agent Kwesi Pratt, Jr., NDC…

All Ghanaian politicians…Some Ghanaian politicians…lying shit-bombing bastards, cats, mosquitoes, dogs, ants, skunks, hyenas…Neocolonial royal parrots and beheaders of dreams…

NPP… NDC… anti-patriotism, anti-Nkrumah, anti-progressivism, anti-Ghana, anti-people…And their teeming supporters of useful idiots…village idiots…praise singers…

Diseased political prostitutes made up of every stripe and persuasion of sexually transmitted ideology and philosophy…

Apuskeleke thieving political scoundrels forcing Ghanaians into a tight corner of “kpa kpa kpa movement”…

Ayi Kwei Armah’s “The Beautiful Ones Are Not Yet Born”…The unnerving hypocrisy of the ruling class, like Joseph Heller’s “Catch-22” thrown at Armah’s chichidodo bird which among other things:

“Hates excrement with all its soul. But the chichidodo only feeds on maggots, and you know the maggots grow inside the lavatory.”

A body politic with a shameful contemporary mis-marriage between galamsey and ecosophy, namely progressive ecocentric values…ecological wisdom…pollution…the tragedy of the commons…

Shit-bombing politics insults and threatens Supreme Court Justices…

Shit-bombing politics insults and degrades the womanhood of hardworking and intelligent women such as Madam Charlotte Osei…an attack on the nation’s democratic institutions…

Shit-bombing politics is when Ghanaian men and women do galamsey theatrics in a pubic circus-act arena and, accordingly, convince foreign arm-chair and ivory-tower pontificators to call it “gateway democracy”…

Such men and women…political ambassadors with shit-bombing sewage-mouths and gutter-tongues…Halida Haruna…Kennedy Agyapong…Nana Obiri Boahen…Otiko Afisa Djaba…

Shit-bombing politics is everything Fela Kuti called:

Expensive Shit…

Democrazy…

Colo-mentality…

Zombie democracy…

Coffin for Head of State…

Politricks…

Such a lawless country, a Shakespearean comedy of errors…

Such a country George Orwell called “Animal Farm”…

Such a country with circular impositions of clueless crazy-bald-head leaders…

Such a country William Sydney Porter called a Banana State…a Banana Republic…

Such a country Wole Soyinka calls “The Open Sore of a Continent”…

Such a country with fake and wicked Men of God…

Such a country with wicked political communicators should be dissolved…political commentators with acid tongues…

Such a country Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn called “The Gulag Archipelago”…

An arsonous shit-bombed country indeed!
