"Kwesi Prat is one of those journalists I respected over the years for his out rightness but I am beginning to question my conscience if I really judge him well. His recent pejorative write up in the Insight newspaper which was also captured on the ghanaweb with the caption “Kwesi Pratt questions Rawlings' integrity” has exposed his clandestine activities that over the years portrayed Rawlings as an evil person."

You see, when Kwesi Pratt was criticising your 'nemesis' it was fine with you,but when he started criticising your 'Messiah', you have turned against him. This shows the kind of person you are.

Atta Mills was named in Woyome's saga,
Naadu Mills, P.V. Obeng, The Ahwois, Barton Oduro, Betty Moulds, Kwabena Duffour, Michael Dokosi, Solomon Nkansa, Fiifi Kwertey, Koby Fiagbe, Asiedu-Nketia, Kwabena Adjei, Otukonor, Alotey Jacobs, Quashiega, Koku Anyidoho, Alex Segbefia, Okudzeto Ablakwa and other NDC gurus such as the Police Chief IGP Paul Tawia Quaye, the Head of BNI and the Chief of Defence Staff.

Fellow country men and women, so if we have such a team of criminals leading
this country, how best can we get from
them to benefit our country and the
people of this nation?

Atta Mills always claim he is a Christian, Asomdweehene and the so-called Defender of Faith if leading
such a barrage of thieves, criminals
and arm robbers, fellow country men and women, where will this nation go?

Rawlings is saying it, Nana Konadu Agyedmang Rawlings is saying, Kennedy
Agyapong is saying, Mr. Martin Amidu is saying, Teye Nyaunu and many disciplined politicians in the NDC
bunch of criminals are saying and of course the Opposition members are loudly sounding it solemnly in the ears of Ghanaians all these dangerous
activities by this Government to the
People of Ghana,

Efo Norvor, Kwesi Plate Pratt is running out of options and his papers is not selling like it used to be. The Castle no longer pays for advert never used and the 200 copies for each region times 10 is no longer in effect. The guy is playing chess and just want Rawlings to open his mouth so that he can twist it and sell his papers. Kwesi Plate plate is becoming empty now.

well, JJ didn't invite Akuffo Addo the serial loser; the akyem midget rather moved heaven and earth to meet the "murderer" and afterwards described him as his mentor so what is the make of the morning cloud?

NORVOR,YOUR WRITE UP IS NOT A BAD ONE. BUT I HOPE YOU ARE NOT DOING ANY PR FOR THOSE PERSONALITIES YOU HAVE MENTIONED. CHAMBAS FOR INSTANCE HAD NO PATIENCE, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN OCCUPYING MAHAMA'S POSITION RIGHT NOW. HE BECAME ANGRY JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING HE WAS EXPECTING PASSED BY HIM. FOR THAT REASON, HE SOLD OUT THE BIMBILA SEAT TO THE NPP & RATHER ACCEPTED A POSITION FROM KUFFOUR AS THE ECOWAS SOMETHING. LISTEN, I KNOW NDC OF 1992-2000 BETTER THAN YOU DO,NORVOR.I SERVED IN GOVERNMENT. I CANNOT SAY MUCH ABOUT NDC OF 2001-NOW BECAUSE I LEFT THE COUNTRY. AGAIN, SOMEONE LIKE OFOSU AMPOFO IS THE MOST GREEDY & SELFISH PERSON ON THIS EARTH.I KNOW HOW HE STARTED AS A DCE FROM A PHOTOGRAPHER.I WILL BE THE LAST PERSON TO GIVE UP ON JERRY RAWLINGS.HE IS A GOOD MAN. I KNOW WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR THIS COUNTRY. I KEEP SAYING THAT IF NDC HAS THE LIKES OF TONNY AIDDO & KWABENA AGYEI IN THEIR COMMUNICATION TEAM, NPP WILL BE NO MUCH. TONNY IS GOOD TOO.I REST MY CASE.

Abbey, JJ was a good man until he opened his doors to that over ambitious akuffo addo; that was the last time JJ's pictures saw my home because I thought JJ was a savvy politician but he disappointed me with that act which almost gave the elections to the akyem dwarf. As for Ibn Chambas, he just acted opportunistic and shame unto him for that.

Ghana is the only country we have. It therefore behooves on us (Ghanaians) to address issues with brotherly love as you advised our brother Kwesi Pratt devoid of insults. Let those who have eyes see and those with ears hear it loud and clear. There should be no insult in expressing our views and concerns. We must build Ghana together be it NDC or NPP in power. God bless our homeland Ghana.

Justice, you have hit the nail right on the head!!! People like Prat are musuem pieces still trying to be relevant but forgot that they are out of sync or that their ideas belong to the stone age.

What at all is wrong for Rawlings to confer or advise President Mahama? People like Kwesi Prat fed FAT on Ghana by creating a division betwen Prof Mills and President Rawlings. Now that he sees that President Mahama is wise to seek the advise of the only one man in the world who knows Ghana politically. Is Kwesi Prat saying we should re-invent the wheel?

Justice, think of who 'discovered' Flt. Lt. Rawlings in the 1970s and brought him to the Africa 1970 political group led by Uncle Kwemena Essifie, Johnny Hansen, Peter Onu of the OAU, BJ, and co. Where are they today? Think of those who protected Rawlings from 1979 to 1982? What did Rawlings do to Eric Asare, Cpls Brimah, Adebuga; Sgt Akata Poree, Atim, Kwesi Adu, Zaya Yeebo, Rudolf Amega,Nubour and his brother at the Bank of Ghana, Ali Yemo, PV Obeng, etc
Kwesi Pratt Jnr is one of the most principled journalists in the country. He like Abdul Malik Baako are the very few persons who really know Rawlings. Rawlings is dangerous,inept, brute, and corrupt. He once attacked the house (No3, second circular road, cantonments) of his minister with a Ghana airforce helicopter on 23 November 1982 supported by Lt. Richer Addo, now at ECOWAS in Abuja.
Yes, NDC needs peace to govern. Justice, go and talk to President Hilla Liman's family and find out what Rawlings did to them, Limann died of POVERTY created by Rawlings. Till today, Mrs. Fulera Liman is not recognised in any public meetings/funerals etc.
Rawlings failed to campaign for Mahama and the NDC after taking bribes from the opposition. Justice, go and read the Daily Guide edition the day after Nana Akufo-Addo visited the Rawlingeses in November/October 2012? President Mahama watch Rawlings, he overthrew the last person from northern Ghana in the Castle. Listen to Liman's family. Correct the historical wrongs by paying the Liman family what is due them. God bless Ghana.

Nelson Mandela retired to his home and was never heard dabbling in internal politics and remained a respetable statesman.On the contrally Rawlings was not only criticizing the ndc but went as far as attempting to bring it down.Ghanians abhor dictatorship but it seems Rawlings are so power drunk that they want to be the backseat driver of the ndc even he was in retirement.No wonder that his family sees the ndc as their personal property and hence Konadu Rawlings attempt to seize control of the leadership.Her failure to take control of the party is the result of this family founding another party in ndp.The NDP is at the moment supporting the npp in their accusation of collution between the ndc and the ec to rig the elections.The attitude of the Rawlings was despicable and we would want them to absolve themselves of those baggages to be taken serious once again in the ndc.No member of the Party is above party loyalty and the party can not compromise on that.The ndc is underpinned by the Nkrumaist tradition who have found a home in in the ndc to thwart the greedy tradition of the Dankwa Busia tradition.The ndc is therefore a broad movement and so must it be.

How on earth can somebody who overthrew democratically elected government promotes freedom of speech? Novor who spoke against the culture of silence?Ghana has a long way to go if we are not able to speak the truth.If Novor believes in freedom oh speech then your mentor should not come in the picture.Rawlings ruled for 19years and the next government he handed over to him sent the country to HPIC because of economic mismanagement.But people like you hail him as a hero.Look at the state of the economy , the seed that he planted is bearing fruit big time. We are enjoying it.Anybody who has the nation at heart will never join this blood party, a party whose constitution was signed with human blood.The way we behave make me feel like we are from Mars.Those academics are even worst than the illiterates.Because of tribal sentiments the nation is sinking . Ghana is the only country where minorities are ruling majority because of money. 3years curfew is freedom of speech MR.NOVOR.You don't know what you are talking about or you were born yesterday?

Kwesi Prat must retire as a journalist if he cannot represent the truth. His brain is too sharp to understand the new generation. Just quit writing for better legacy!

Mr. Justice Dansu Norvor I hope you existed since 2009 when Kwesi Pratt was the lonely voice that protected and defended the late President Evans Atta Mills, some of us still work underground to defend the NDC just like Kwesi, though we are not members of that party. NDC members and President John Dramani Mahama must know that a party that can not defend itself let room or the word a lie repeated thousand times become the truth. It is an irony that Justice Dansu Norvor has just been animated. We are told that Mr. Okudzeto Ablakwa is being punished by President Mahama for no sin, and that his sin is that he defended NDC.

MANY PEOPLE SERVED IN BARACK OBAMAS FIRST PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN TRAILS, AND NOT ALL OF THEM WERE APPOINTED TO MINISERIAL POSITIONS WHEM OBAMA WON THE 2008 AND 2012 US ELECTIONS.

MANY OF THESE MEN ANS WOMEN HAVE RETURNED TO THEIR VARIOUS JOBS AND HAVE NOT IN A NY SINGLE DAY COMPLAINED AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT FOR NOT HIRING THEM IN GOVERNMENT POSITIONS.

DID RONALD REAGAN GIVE KISSINGER ANY POSITION IN HIS CABINET WHEN HE WON THE 1980 US GENERAL ELECTION.

LASTLY, POLITICS NEED NOT TO BE A PREOCCUPATION IN THE COUNTRY.

WE BETTER START LOOKING INTO THAT PERSON IN THE MIRROE BEFORE WE LOSE OUR SOULS.
