Fellow Ghanaians, we have a big problem on our hands with our President and we need to close ranks irrespective of our Party affiliations and find out if this President we have is not off his rocker.We have a mugwump and a valetudinarian President who will not stand and fight for what he believes in but rather caves in very easily to his Party leaders and foot soldiers demands. President Harry Truman's the buck stops here axiom is yet to get to President Mills lexicon.

Can somebody help me count how many times this President have caved in to the outrageous demands from his so called Party foot soldiers? Just yesterday, the NDC foot soldiers in the Upper West Region demanded from the President to sack the Regional Minister because he was accused of rewarding a contract to an NPP supporter.Is the NPP supporter not a Ghanaian like these lazy fools roaming the streets and causing havoc with their foot soldiers nonsense? Despite the Minister's denial that, the NPP supporter in question won the contract on a tender basis and he the regional Minister has nothing to do with it, this Minister is out of a job because the foot soldiers demanded his head and as usual with this President, he succumbed to the pressure from the part-time armed robbers and 'full time demonstration workers' NDC foot soldiers.

Is Atta Mills that weak he can't say NO to these lazy morons who are making life hard for law abiding citizens in Ghana? Did he investigate the accusations levelled against this Minister before sacking him? Within 24 hours after the armed robbers demanded the head of a Regional Minister, our clueless President meekly gave in. Oh!! Ghana, what did we do wrong to deserve this?

BELOW IS HOW THE PEACE FM REPORTED THE MINISTER'S DISMISSAL. ______________________________________________________ Upper West Regional Minister Sacked

Date: 11-May-2010

Peacefmonline can confirm that the Upper West Regional Minister, Mr. Mahmood Khalid has been sacked. A statement from the presidency, signed by Mr. J.K. Bebaako-Mensah, Secretary to President J.E.A. Mills, offered no reason except to say that Mr. Mahmood’s dismissal is with immediate effect. The statement said Mr. Moses Mabenga, the Northern Regional Minister, is to oversee the administration of the Upper West Region until a substantive minister is appointed. It would be recalled that some foot soldiers of the NDC in the Upper West Region on Monday, May 10, vandalised some property belonging to the party to register their displeasure over the awarding of contracts to members of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) by the embattled Regional Minister. _______________________________________________________

Who is ruling Ghana, Atta Mills or the NDC foot soldiers? Since the inception of Atta Mills Presidency in January 2009, the so called foot soldiers have taken the laws into their armed robbery hands and President Mills has become a pawn on their chess board moving him around like a yoyo.

Just about a month ago, the foot soldiers of the NDC from Asuogyaman constituency in Eastern Region chased the toll booth collectors at Atimpoku side of the Adomi bridge and manned the booths from 8.15 AM till closing time and pocketed whatever toll they collected. To make matters worse, the same thieves masquerading as patriots have printed their own receipts which means whatever they collect from drivers would not see government coffers.

What did the Mills administration do about this daylight robbery? Instead of prosecuting these criminals, the legitimate workers at the booth were sacked and the NDC 'armed robbers' are now manning the Adomi bridge at Atimpoku as part of the 'newly created' 1.6 million jobs beaver teeth Okudzeto Ablakwa talked about..

Another episode worth mentioning is the case of the Yendi DCE who was chased out of town by the NDC foot soldiers from Yendi and banished from town by the jorum pito swigging crazies who threatened to kill him if he dares come back to Yendi. It is not like the crazy idiots were hiding and threatening the DCE, they have their spokesman speaking to the media with his threats and this NDC stupid administration did not arrest anybody for committing a felony crime of terroristic threat.

These foot soldiers have committed so many crimes chasing workers from NHIS, NYEP, MMT offices around the country and despite President Mills hollow threat that he would not spare anybody taking the law into their own hands, not a single soul has been arrested for their lawless behaviour.

This President is so weak, Carl Wilson who was supposed to have been sacked from his position as the Chairman of the Car confiscation committee was in the news recently when the Togolese Alex Segbefia sent him to the Tema port to inspect or appropriate a car for himself and was set upon and beaten mercilessly by custom officials. Is Carl Wilson still at post or not, Mr President? Alex Segbefia seems to have more powers than anybody at the castle including the President.

The weak President handed murderer Rawlings five million dollars as 'hush hush money' to run his cocoa processing factory while hard working Ghanaians are having a hard time in the economy this administration has destroyed.

Where is Limann when you need a man with cojones to stand on his own two legs? Ghanaians thought they would never witness another weak President like Limann again but nobody told them there was a Tax Professor lurking at the Legon campus about to spring a surprise on them.
