The fact that Ghanaweb is own by a Ghanaian does not mean Ghanaweb is based in Ghana and meant for Ghanaians
Use your brain!

My friends mpepefo, do not allow Ewes to deceive you. Asante-Akyems have been accomodating to mpepefo since time immemorial. The've inter married and lived peacefully for centuries. There is Zongo in every Asante-Akyem town. Mpepefo do brisk businesses in all Asante-Akyem towns and villages, does same happen in the Ewelands ? Think, don't let Ewes deceive you, they are greedy. They overthrew a pepe government of Limann and have since remained in power but are not satisfied. They use you always to cling to power. If you joke with these greedy ungrateful guys they will one day take your BOLGA, TAMALE AND YENDI from you and you will cry to Asante-Akyems to save you. Watch them !

Even if you give them gold and disrespect them, they will not want to do anything with you.
Northerners stays in Kumasi and anywhere because it's part of Ghana and nobody can stop any northerner from staying anywhere in Ghana.
Northerners are not staying in Kumasi at the mercy of Ashantis. Get that into that your arrogant coconut.

Of course the diction is beyond your appreciation, so it must be silly. Start educating yourself.

Some of the difficulties we have in Ghana have to do with the semi-illiteracy and ethnocentrism; both of which have been expressed in some of the previous comments.

This crappy article explains your limited exposure to the expansive genre of journalism.
Your childish fascination with those engaged in "Infotainment", mostly on TV tells me you have no idea of stellar journalistic standards.
When you write on the world wide web your audience is international and it's incumbent upon you to introduce your subjects/characters with some background information. I have no idea who Kwaku Sakyi Addo is or any of the names you dropped here. I suppose they did their job well but do they deserve such hagiography by your misguided fascination?
I doubt you've ever had the opportunity to listen to some of our traditional linguists to appreciate their articulation. Otherwise you'll not cite these 2X4 journalists as paragons of rhetoric.
Who cares if those journalists you cite have a background in other professions? It's so silly to write an article about average journalists doing their job. They seem so bright in this era of Ghanaian journalistic mediocrity.
Kwesi, when are you going to plan your articles and cut out the embellished crap? You always tell too many disjointed stories to scatter the points of your theme. Develop some logic and flow in your articles to a sane and convincing conclusion.
Your articles are also full of hanging statements. For instance you wrote:
" It’s all in the memory, folks. PM David Cameron’s memory never fails."
What has this got to do with anything and what's the evidence regarding David Cameron's purported awesome memory? Are we to just believe your assertions without any evidence?
I still have no idea who Nana Kow Ansah is, yet you conclude your article by affirming his opinion with the metaphor of a broken clock.
Tighten up your game and give us articles on matured subjects. Enough of your cheerleading rants in the journalistic world.

I like people who says it as it should be however, Paa you came so heavy on the poor guy who only was trying to push journalist in Ghana to raise the bar to a certain appreciable level.
He did prop up his antics without proper description of the subjects involved to make the article worthwhile. Not very good.

I am not an admirer of K.S.A but this piece is excellent. The English is impeccable and the style is simply genial.
I have not read such a good article in Ghana for a long, long while.
Congrats, V-Mate !
