  'Potential' my arse. Or maybe he meant potential for our rulers to keep wasting Ghana's resources, as they have mostly done these last 57 years.

  I visited a barber shop in New York over the weekend where I met some group of young guys discussing an article on Ghanaweb from their cell phones.whilst waiting for my turn I heard the Trokosi guy among them repeating a name that sound LIKE "AGOOVE" more than twenty times and unbeknownst to him, anytime he say Agoove the other guys laughed. I joined the conversation and wondered who this Agoove guy could be, little did I know that he wanted to say "Ahoofe" instead but his Togolese accent was the problem.

  Hear hear...and too damn right that the average Brit doesn't give a monkey's toss about Ghana. Countries must make their own mark and should not require validation from others for their existence. After all when the Ghanaian man and woman go to bed and continually procreate to extend their generations, they do not ask permission from the Brits to do so, they do so thinking of themselves as having the right to inhabit the earth as humans, so they should get on with it, warts and all!!

  Certainly Sarpong and Okoampah-Ahoofe, almost invariably do their darnedest to cast either Nkrumah's or Mahama's administrations in bad light. Without a doubt, both Sarpong's piece, "USA, Britain, Germany, Etc, Stop Giving Ghana Gov. Any Aid", And Ahoofe's smart-alecky insult "You Can't Eat ' Potential' , Mr, British High Commissioner!" , are obviously politically motivated. Needless to say, Ahoofe must apologize to both the President and to the High Commissioner for the insult, " as a satyriatic john on the cusp of orgasm with a floozy, or even a paid slut," Such disrespect will not be brooked by the key operatives of Westminster culture. You guys are hurting the NPP with your disrespect and insults.

  Potential does not put food on the table neither, I promise, I pledge, I assure, I shall etc, the only vocabulary the president learnt during his entire education in Ghana.

  The irony in your write up, Dr Kwame, is the double talk you've extracted out of the British representative even as you spend your monthly tradition to highlight the very deceptive skills everyone of your political and educated elite heroes who studied in UK brought and continue to bring to bear unto the Ghanaian political scene.
  You hail Dr. J.B. Danquah's elitist writing that espouses voting for Ghana's president/prime minister post to be reserved for some preferred collection of voters and not by all citizens even as you shower meaningless accolades on the hollow writings of Dr. Busia. The writing is on the wall for all who acquire some classroom credits in the Diaspora only to return to Ghana just as ignorant and even more so speaking with the master’s voice than those you left behind here at home
