Unfortunately Nkrumah failed to fully use the Preventive Detention Act to Exterminate these (Asante/Akyems) offsprings of prostitution. They are now the CANCER to the socioeconomic development of our dear country. Ghana in never going to reach the mountain top as long as there's traitors lives among us. Time for a referendum to decide on letting them form their own STATE OF ILLUSION. Then the drug Baron, Asantehene, can invite that DWARF to be the prime minister. They can fund their state by taxing the prostitution of Asante/Akyem women(as suggested by mp for Obuasi)

The first similes outlined in your introductory paragraphs do no justice to our Ewe brothers and sisters who make good rhythms by playing on the sides of their Agbadza drums; and the "blind" references insult the dignity of the visually impaired brethren some of whom are very skilled and talented as drummers, surgeons and even pilots.

As far as my blind simile, I apologize to the sensibilities of readers who think I insulted blind people because that was never my intention. I will never insult any blind person or for that matter any individual with a disability.

Cardinal a passerby saw all the events happening and was shocked. He ran up to Dr SAS the blind man and said “How the hell can you possibly reward a dog for pissing on your foot?” Dr SAS the blind man replied "I'm not rewarding him, I'm trying to find his head so I can kick him in his fuckin' ass."

It was a hot day outside..so the three nuns decided to take off there clothes and bolt the door to there church.
Since there was stain glass windows, nobody could see inside, and the door was locked.
The nuns were busy doing renovations when a Thud Thud Thud hit the door.
The shocked nun ran to the door and pulled her clothes up over herself, when she asked "Who is it"?
The reply from behind the door was "Its the blind man".
The 3 nuns looked relieved when they heard he was the blind man, no sight no problem they figured, and let him in.
Upon opening the door, in entered a burly man in coveralls and said "Holy shit sister nice tits!! ... Where do you want your blinds? "

This writer wants Ghanaians to look narrowly at our predicament as we always sort to do.
By his argument, the patient's(Ghana) malaise is natural and not man made.
Following our independence, we were manufacturing all sorts of consumer goods in our country. The nation wreckers we are, set out to distabalise and sell off the status quo through the NLM coup of 1966.
Since then, we have resorted to telling lies,manufacturing lies, defending the in-defensible and making loud noise instead of examining our plight in our very behaviour and attitude.
What this writer fails to tell us is how quoting prices in dollars instead of our cedi affects the demand for the dollar.
We do not value our cedi and yet want its value to be competitive and retain its value!!!!!!!!!!!

Read the definition for both words, you illiterate asshole.
Metaphor is a type of analogy and is closely related to other rhetorical figures of speech that achieve their effects via association, comparison or resemblance including allegory, hyperbole, and simile.
In simpler terms, a metaphor compares two objects/things without using the words "like" or "as".
sim·i·le/?s?m?li/ Show Spelled [sim-uh-lee] Show IPA
noun
1. a figure of speech in which two unlike things are explicitly compared, as in “she is like a rose.” Compare metaphor.
2. an instance of such a figure of speech or a use of words exemplifying it.

As you Justice Sarpong and others enjoy your lives in Houston Texas and other states or countries around the globe, you do so understanding your obligations and responsibilities to paying city and state taxes and the national federal income tax. You and or your kind in the Diaspora, however, mean-spiritedly incite people here in Ghana to engage in chaos and hooliganism because you yearn for governments in power in Ghana that is of your tribal preference and not because of good governance. If some in the Diaspora will spend much time behaving and or encourage others of your elk to behave the ways you do in your various countries of current domicile Ghana would be peaceful and slowly inch towards national development. Instead most of you engage in trifling tribal base hypocritical and intellectually dishonest assessment of governments while you turn a blind eye to the evils of your preferred past governments who failed more so for the long term effects of their folly than for the overall failures at governing.
As I have said before and will say again, I have never seen Rawlings as a model for African leadership. Not even in Ghana would our standard for the classification of the educated elite class ever include a "O" or "A" level graduate of the J.J. Rawlings type. The Atta Mills and J.A. Kufour kind is and should be our main basis for serious comparative analysis. Where in the Western European continent or in the USA or Canada do you find nations whose entire telecommunications infrastructure to be in the hands and ownership of a foreign government or entity? This happened in Ghana under an Oxford educated Kufour who may have obtained all the credentials to impress some of you degree seeking clowns but have shown lack of critical thinking and the requisite foresight to have been a leader of a developing nation like Ghana. You guys can never understand anything meaningful because you live and die by the measure of how much money you make and the lifestyles that foster the wrong impression amongst Ghana's impressionable youth. It is sad there are no adults left in Ghana and or live with those in the Diaspora full of classroom earned credentials but lacking the ability to think in the absence of a master or a lecturer in the classroom.
Governments in relatively superior democratic practicing western nations have not sold government owned properties at fire sale prices and or leased them to be abused as we did and continue to do in Ghana but by looking out for the best pricing and usage for the benefit of society. In Ghana we have loud mouth fools in the NDC and NPP who day in and day out justify evil deeds in the name of political party and or out of tribal loyalties and those of you in the Diaspora foolishly and smugly encourage the absence of wisdom in our leaders because they happen to be your tribesmen or from your preferred political party. Kufour and his family are rumored to own shares in Accra Mall, in hotels and other land properties, he continues to get free trips outside Ghana on Ghana’s dime, cars and other assets and yet none of you tribal zealots see anything wrong with the picture except jump J.J. Rawlings for his wrong doings as well. If Kufour had all the money prior to occupying Ghana’s highest office he darn sure did not show us and yet every living fools would want every thinking Ghanaian to believe he earned what he own. Would a man with love of nation the likes of Kufour and or J.J. Rawlings, Atta Mills and others not forgo these trinkets they get from the broke government that made them all rich in their stinking lives? How many of the unfortunate death of some of Ghanaians should we lay squarely at the feet of all these thieving selfish leaders?
