The Crocodile Tears of Former President J.A.Kufuor

Weep Not NPP, Weep Not Former President Kufuor; as the saying goes “No condition is permanent”! It is very important for every human being to recognize this simple truth! If you forget this basic truth about life as “Emperor Bokassa” JA kufuor and his thievery cohorts did, and you will one day be faced with the reality.

Did I hear “Emperor Bokassa” JA Kufuor lamenting about allegedly being mistreated since leaving office? Wow, wonders shall truly never cease. “Emperor Bokassa” JA Kufuor should be the last person Ghanaians expected to be complaining about allege mistreatment while out of office.

I have some few questions I would like “Emperor Bokassa” JA Kufuor to answer:

1) Do you remember how you treated your predecessor Dr. Jerry John Rawlings who even when you have a dilapidated broken car, he loaned you a car to drive; when you were out of job he offered you a job as a Local Government Secretary?

2) Have your constitutionally mandated privileges being revoked?

3) Have you ever carried your luggage through the popular stand of Kotoka international Airport while on your numerous trips abroad?

4) Have you ever being prevented from using the VIP lounge at Kotoka international airport?

5) Have you ever being denied protocol, at any of Ghana’s missions abroad, which was due you?

“Emperor Bokassa” JA Kufuor, Ghanaians are yearning for honest answers to these questions, and many others, to make their informed judgment on your ‘cry of wolf’. Can you sincerely and honestly say yes to any of these questions? Are you not ashamed of yourself?

“Emperor Bokassa” JA Kufuor ought to be ashamed of himself for complaining of mistreatment after what they took Former President Jerry John Rawlings through. Mr. Kufuor should be the last person to open his mouth to complain about mistreatment after what he and Nana “Kapwepwe” Akufo Addo took Former President Dr. Jerry John Rawlings and his dear wife; Former First Lady Mrs. Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings as well as the current First Lady Mrs. Naadu Mills through.

He forgot that a day will come when he will have to park bag and baggage and leave the Presidency to become an ordinary citizen like any one of us. Emperor JA Kufuor Bokassa’s greed knows no bound. If the whole world is given to “Emperor Bokassa”, even he will still not be satisfied. After the wealth he amassed for himself, families and his NPP cronies and is living in luxury he is still complaining? Mon Dieu!

The resources of Ghana belongs to all of us but then “Emperor Bokassa” and his families as well as his NPP looting cronies looted our lands, Government bungalows and monies yet they are still crying wolf.

“Emperor Bokassa” JA Kufuor why did you treat us Ghanaians like this? Did you think Ghanaians did not like good life as you, your family and cronies?

As a president of our dear country, you use your position to buy, 1.42 Acres of prime Government lands at a ridiculously low price of GHC4000.00 and then distributed the rest to your cronies including the shameless Chief Justice Mrs. Georgina woods. How can you treat your fellow countrymen as such and turn round shedding crocodile tears hoping for sympathy from the very people you downtrodden?

Bokassa JA Kufuor, you cheated us. You looted us. You stole our wealth.

“Emperor Bokassa”, we know who you were at the prime of your life before winning the presidency. We know the kind of cars you drove, the kind of dresses you wore; but today you have a fleet of Cadillacs parked in your home and you wear designer suits, just after 8 years at the hem of affairs of our HIPC Ghana. Emperor JA Bokassa Kufuor, Ghanaians are more intelligent than you are thinking. No tears for you!

Kufor’s children have become Billionaires just because their father has been the President of Ghana for 8 years. Some of them all of a sudden, because their father was a President, were able to raise over $8, 000,000.00 within a twinkle of an eye. Some recovered immediately from a series of personal failures and bankruptcies to become multimillion business tycoons, thanks to Eurobond being service by the Ghanaian taxpayer. What have we Ghanaians done to deserve these kinds of treatments from you, your families and cronies?

The saying “Absolute Power corrupts Absolutely” is just directly applicable to you, Emperor JA Bokassa Kufuor.

“Emperor JA Kufuor Bokassa just note that “WHAT IS GOOD FOR THE GOOSE IS GOOD FOR THE GANDER” and that the “Evil that Men do lives after them”
