Letter From The President: Ashamed of WAEC

Wed, 11 Aug 2004 Source: Fukuor, J. A.

Countrymen and women, loyalists and opponents,
as I sit to write this letter, I am seething with rage. I have this burning desire to deliver an uppercut and break the jaw of a certain man. Unfortunately, the man is a Reverend Minister and I don?t want to incur God?s wrath by laying my hand on his anointed. The Reverend Minister I want to punch happens to be the head of the National Office of the West African Examinations Council. I hope you know him. His might not be one of the most recognizable faces in the country. He might not be as popular as I am. He is not even a threat to my continuous stay on the Black Star Stool. As far as I am concerned, he is almost insignificant. But by his acts of omission and commission, he has brought so much disgrace to our country and a lot of grief to my heart.
