Mills Rewards 'Armed Robbers'.

Thu, 13 May 2010 Source: Sarpong, Justice

My article on May 10th, 2010 under the title, "Mills, Pamparing and Rewarding

Criminals" attracted a hoarde of some NDC 'SICKOS and WACKOS, the most prominent and

vociferous with some weird theories being these guys, OLONKA and MATHS.

MATHS, despite telling him numerous times where I got the information for my article

insisted that, my proximity in Houston makes my article unbelievable since I am not

in Ghana and therefore my information cannot be right. I find such an argument very

childish, puerile sophomoric idiocy. Is this guy cocooned in a marshland somewhere

in the Amazon forest the technological advancement in the twenty first century just

escaped him? Enough about him anyway.

The argument the OLONKA guy put up if he wasn't serious would have elicited a

hilarious laughter from me but he is typical of most NDC sycophants though he said

he is not one. His argument was that, everybody in Ghana is a thief and since those

toll booth operators have had their fill, they should vacate their positions so that

the NDC supporters can also come and steal. Folks, this guy was not kidding, he was

as serious as a heart attack and that is how some Ghanains have lost their moral

compass. Now there is no what is good and bad have meshed due to the lawlessness

going on in our dear country.

Our country is heading towards anarchy because of the so called NDC foot soldiers

who have taken the laws of the country into their own hands and are

now disseminating their crude and primitive justice because there is a vacuum at the

Presidency where the President is not respected because he does not follow through

with his threats. He warned his foot soldiers to behave or face arrest but these

idiots called foot soldiers are still misbehaving.

BELOW IS THE ARTICLE THAT GAVE ME THE IMPETUS TO WRITE MY ARTICLE ON MAY 10TH,

2010. GHANA IS SINKING INTO THE ABYSS OF ANARCHY AND STAKEHOLDERS IN OUR COUNTRY

OUGHT TO SIT UP AND ADDRESS THIS LAWLESS SITUATION BEING PERPETRATED BY THE NDC

GOONS.BEAVER TEETH ABLAKWA OKUDZETO AND HIS NDC HAVE 'CREATED' 1.6 MILLION JOBS, LET

THEM EMPLOY THESE PEOPLE SO THAT GHANAIANS CAN HAVE A PEACE OF MIND.

Mills Rewards ‘Armed Robbers’

The youth of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) who run riot together with their

Chairman, Love Joy Dusi, in the Asuogyaman constituency of the Eastern region, and

chased away toll booth operators of the Ghana Highways Authority at the popular

Adomi Bridge at Atimpoku, have been rewarded and appointed as the official

care-takers of the booths.

They have been constituted into a taskforce and were commissioned on Sunday to

oversee the activities of collecting tolls. They were sworn into office by the

District Chief Executive with the help of the District Highway authorities, and to

collect the revenue on behalf of the assembly and the Highways authorities.

Instead of prosecuting the culprits for taking over an asset of the state illegally,

they have been rewarded after they were granted bail whilst the Divisional Police

Commander, ASP Issah Mohammed Cantona, has been called to Accra.

The constituency chairman who happens to be the chairman of the sub-committee on

Finance and Administration of the District Assembly had organized about 20 young men

to take over the booth a couple of weeks ago through brute force. He is however not

facing the law, making nonsense of the President’s directive that the police should

deal pitilessly with such lawless party members.

The irate youth and the Chairman who took over the booth claimed that the monies

being collected were going into private pockets and not helping the ‘Better Ghana’

course the President has embarked on.

They also noted that they were taking over the collection of tolls at the bridge to

avoid wastage in the system and ensure efficiency.

Yesterday, efforts by this newspaper to contact the DCE prove fruitless as he

refused to answer the eight (8) calls placed on his phone even though text messages

were dispatched earlier before the call.

When the sector Minister was called to comment, Hon. Joe Gidisu said ‘I am outside

the country and would be returning next week’.

It would be re-called that some angry NDC faithfuls chased away the toll operators

and after they were arrested, monies collected at the Juapong end of the bridge

which they took over at about 8.15 am could not be accounted for but they were able

to collect GH¢859 at the Atimpoku end of the bridge.

The money together with the fake tickets in the name of the Asuogyaman District

Assembly was seized by the police to be used as exhibits in court.
