  KEEP ON DREAMING. Ghana needs more than dreams and Ghanaians better wake up.
  
  Ghanaians have tied their aprons to the NDC and the NPP and that is why we are exactly where we are. We were left nine years after independence with all a nation needs to take off. We made most of what we need, tyres, sugar, flour, radio, and tv. We had our own shipping line and airline. We were sufficient in electrical power and water and had state farms feeding the nation.
  
  Such was our state until the American CIA unleashed NPP/UP and their diabolical traitors on us. An attempt was was made again to go back to common sense but Rawlings and his cohorts would hear nothing of the sort and they took over.
  
  We have since been descending into the gutter and Ghanaians have made it a point to put these two destructive entities in power every time. They do not care for the welfare of ordinary Ghanaian but looting to fill their pockets.
  
  It is about time Ghanaians wake up and realize that there are able people in Ghana who do not wear the colours of the NDC and the NPP. Ghana needs a different direction in political leadership and until Ghanaians realize that, WE WILL WALLOW IN ABJECT POVERTY IN THE MIDST OF PLENTY.

  WE CANNOT TALK ABOUT 6 MARCH 1957 WITHOUT REMEMBERING OSAGYEFO DR KWAME NKRUMAH. HISTORY TELLS US THAT AFTER NKRUMAH HAD STRUGGLED TO WIN INDEPENDENCE, J B DANQUAH & BUSIA FLEW TO LONDON TO APPEAL TO THE QUEEN TO ANNUL THE INDEPENDENCE OF GHANA. WHEN THEY FAILED, THEY RESORTED TO COLLUDING WITH FOREIGN POWERS TO THROW BOMBS IN GHANA AND EVEENTUALLY, THEY TOPPLED NKRUMAH'S GOVERNMENT.
  
  TODAY, IF WE GO TO SOUTH AFRICA AND SEE THE SORDID CONDITIONS OF SOUTH AFRICAN BLACKS (EVEN AFTER THE SO-CALLED "INDEPENDENCE"), WE GIVE THANKS TO NKRUMAH.
  
  NKRUMAH NEVER DIES.

  We NEED ANOTHER "Selfless" Leader....like our KN.Many people DON'T want to hear the Name anymore BUT I will say it.
  When he was overthrown,we were told he put a LOT of Ghana's gold in Swiss Banks, built MANSIONS for Fathia in Egypt, and so on.NOT EVEN HIS MOTHER HAD A BUNGALOW!!!!
  In the END, we ALL know they WERE LIES and FABRICATIONS!
  Ruling a nation like Ghana MAY NOT be easy but IF we ALL SEE OURSELVES FIRST as Ghanaians and then our ethnic affiliation as a Chance to BEAUTIFY the picture and NOT as...a CHANCE to EXALT OURSELVES over ANOTHER Group, we would have made a BIG MOVE!!!!
  If I WERE to be BORN in the territory of Nigeria BY CHANCE, I'd be a Nigerian today and NOT a Ghanaian. SO WHAT IS IT SO SPECIAL ABOUT THE ACCIDENT OF BIRTH ?? Nothing!!
  Let's ALL take our geographical territory Ghana as our HOME and WORK TOGETHER to develop it THE WAY WE WANT IT TO BE!!!!!

  The impact coups have on us was devastating and it was Ewes who did that.

  while as I am with an agreement with the writer, I will passionately beg that those outside the country are not Ghanaians, Ghana diasporians are not allow to participate fully in Ghana democratic development since they are not allow to VOTE!! Even those with Ghana passport are not considered to register not let alone to vote. So who are the write is referring to a "diaspora or abroad"

  IT'S ABOUT THE CHOICE OF AN AFRICAN WTO AND OTHER CANDIDATES PREPARED TO CHAMPION THE CONCERNS OF THE VAST MAJORITY OF AFRICANS FOR THE COMMON GOOD OF ALL AFRICANS AND OUR CONTINENTAL ECONOMY.
  
  AFRICANS AND AFRICA HAVE BEEN EXPLOITED FOR FAR TOO LONG MAINLY BECAUSE OF BAD, SELFISH, LAZY VISIONLESS AND CORRUPT LEADERSHIP.
  
  OUR "LEADERS" HAVE FAILED US BIG TIME!! AND THEY CONTINUE TO DO SO IN THIS DAY AND AGE!!!
  
  WE AFRICANS MUST WAKE UP!!!

  We have had independent since 1957 and exactly do we show to ourselves that "Yes We can"?
  
  Wrestling power in the hope governing ourselves is not the problem but how we do it. There is no single solution to the problems facing us and I doubt if we can really do it as our first leader said. I am saying this because imagine a man or woman, at the age of 56 who cannot afford to buy a pair of bathroom slippers despite the fact he/she is doing a remarkable job that pays him/her well.
