“… of insinuations Mr. Asiedu Nketiah [General Mosquito] has made against
the founder of the party… Rawlings, and… Konadu Rawlings. These seem to be
making him [Asiedu] unpopular among party members…” (Ghanaweb Jan, 9 2010)
I. THE ENCOUNTER
Mosquito met with Dr.Not-Dr.Spew
At JJ Jejeti’s politricks of Tyranny Club
Where JJ Jejeti preaches to his followers
The grand philosophy of one thief one toilet
But all have agreed to seize 15 toilets each
And where JJ Jejeti acts out his mindset
Strutting about that he alone is fit to rule
But he sadly squandered a 20-year reign
Now would not leave Mills alone to rule
Coward Ghanaian men like to be ruled
Those reaping from JJ Jejetism anarchy
Yes, unspeaking cowardly men watch
Like fat lizards on the walls of Hotel 4-K4
By wringing their alas fingers at JJ Jejeti
At JJ Jejeti’s one-man Ridge gory show
Our hero who has all the answers
But keeps barking at his own questions
II. THE FATEFUL INCIDENT
Mosquito bit JJ Jejeti’s politrick bellyful
Dr.Not-Dr. diagnosed the daring bite
Diagnosing Mosquito’s spirited folly
Of biting JJ Jejeti’s politrick bellyful
So Mosquito trumpeted anti-JJ noises
In the ears of sleeping coward men
III. VOICE OF MOSQUITO
Mosquito whined at Dr.Not-Dr.
Saying that you know him, Koku
Said that you are not a Dr. at all
IV. VOICE OF DR.NOT-DR.
Dr. Not-Dr. smiled and said what
You look like a Chokor mosquito
But you are not as thin as a mosquito
You are fattened like an NDC pig
Bellyfull with NDCed stolen money
V. VOICE OF MOSQUITO
Ha ha haa, Mosquito replied
Dr.Not-Dr. we are all fat crooks
Yes, all Ghanaian politrickians
D-D-T, NDC, NPP, CPP, DDT
Except that I keep my fat inside
I don’t show my fatness on my belly
Like the growing bellyful of JJ Jejeti
Neither is it cheeky-ful like yours
Nor am I gravying all over JJ Jejeti
Building temples of currying favor
Currying favor with JJ Jejeti by 2012
For the 2012 national elections
VI. VOICE OF DR.NOT-DR.
Dr.Not-Dr. screamed
But JJ Jejeti made you
What you are today
Madam NSAWAM CANNERY
You see even said so too to all
VII. VOICE OF MOSQUITO
Mosquito laughed aloud and said
Have you ever wondered
Why Madam Nsawam Cannery
Chose the Cannery but not the PRISON
Hey there was Arkaah; there is Mills
There you were in the 2008 trenches
Can’t you see what JJ Jejeti is about
JJ Jejeti played you and Mills in 2008
Mills won but he is now the No 1 enemy
VIII. VOICES ON JJ. JEJETI REALITY
Dr.Not-Dr. said Mosquito you are right
Mosquito replied Dr.Not-Dr., really
And Dr.Not-Dr. nodded and said yes
I want to go the way of JJ Jejeti in 2012
Mosquito smirked and said Dr.Not-Dr.
And Dr.Not-Dr. smiled and said
But let us get serious now for GHANA
JJ Jejeti NEVER GETS ALONG well
Yes, not with anyone since 1979
He is a one-man wrecking crew
Think about JJ Jejeti’s affairs
With Osahene Boakye Gyan
Akata Pore; Zaya Yeebo, Obed Asamoah
Flying Officer Odoi; Kojo Lee
Kojo Tsikata; Fui Tsikata
PV Obeng; ET Mensah; The Ahwois
Courage Quarshiga
Limann; Arkaah; Kufour; not even Mills
You see Forest Mosquito
I swear I agree with you
We all know JJ Jejeti very well
JJ Jejeti is a tyrannical volcano
But I need to go JJ Jejeti’s way in 2012
And that is why I tried to draw your blood
That is why I can’t speak truth to power
