It's easier for a dude to brag and boast of having the ablity to go three rounds each with ten gorgeous women in one day. When they're presented with their salavating wish, that's when the relisation of their inabilities is profoundly exposed. My brother, talk is cheap when you're not the one dispensing the act. We all have wishes but are the attainable?

Excellent article with good ideas for the greedy bastards, and I hope their cronies will pass it on to them.

Akadu Mensema once tried to correct you but you were too obstinate to take correction. The phrase is "double-edged sword," not "double edge sword." This is a global medium that foreigners also patronize, so take a lesson and do better next time. There are many who are your "seniors" when it comes to flawless writing, Akadu included, so stop acting like the proverbial ostrich. I don't want to see that silly phrase again, please!

Brother Okunka, your article is not only well written;it is a masterpiece. You are a true patriot. The suggestions you make are very healthy for our dear motherland. Please keep up the good work,and maybe,just maybe, someone in position of authority will pay attention. Oh mother Ghana wo mba reko. abrefo dooso. To the "Banzas"" and the grammer police", I say to them Kiss my ARSE. We all know what banza means in hausa.Both are banzas. Who the hell cares.... "double-edged sword" or "double-edge sword. By the way..CNN needs an editor.

The Prez won't do this because he is the master of corruption. He dirty fingers are all over the place. Especially,in ALL bogus contracts he signed for Ghana with the Chinese and Koreans.

One day an Ivorian man, a Nigerian man, and a Ghanaian man walked into a bar together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints, and were stuck in the thick head. The Ivorian man pushed his beer away in disgust. The Nigerian man fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Ghana man, too, picked the fly out of his drink, but then held it out over the beer and yelled, "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!!!!"

GHANAIAN'S HAVE BECOME CRY BABIES.

Interesting piece! Why can't President Mahama initiate at least one of your above proposals. It's a shame. Either the President is a coward or he's afraid others might spill the skeletal mess in his "closet" if he dares take any of the above actions. Is he being held hostage by his past dealings?

On second thought, Mr. Bannerman, I suggest you direct your suggestions directly to the President, (cc:his advisers). As a concerned citizen it is within your right to voice your opinion and suggestions. Please do that, you'll be pleasantly surprised of the outcome.

Mahama and the P/NDC will never adhere to this. It is the ony way they can create and loot. Look at how
this party came into being.Through voilence, it is their creed and will always be. Ghana is held hostage by P/NDC Look at how many years (30) this party P/NDC has been at the helm and point to any developments that they instituted that benefit the nation except themselves. This country is going to implode and it is only a matter of time.

Do you think that being a president is easy. You can dream but dreams are not always cost effective. Maybe if you were president your wife will insist that you put certain issues in your script and you may want to add that your son also smokes wee and so the police should treat wee smokers with caution.
