Mercy,thanks for writing in support of the hard working major of Accra.It is a pity though that many his compatriots don't see his great leadership qualities.It seems we are afflicted with the tall poppy syndrome,a desire to cut down those doing well at their professions. Mr Vanderpuije is a model leader in Ghana who needs all our support to do the job that nobody is inclined to take on. Cheers!

I struggle to understand understanding of some Ghanaians they are quick to make complains yet would never give praise where it is due. Interesting.

Give him praise for what? Have you seen the sanitation situations in Accra, causing epidemic of cholera? He only decided to do some work after all the criticism. I'm even surprised he's still at his post.

Dear Mercy Adede Bolus:
With all the filthy conditions in Accra that have become fertile grounds for diseases, heaping praises on the Mayor is tantamount to sycophancy.

Who elected this fraud into office? He was appointed by a blind dying Mills after he plea bargained to escape jail sentence in the USA. He stole students chop money he collected for an excursion.
This loud mouth Oko is nothing but a thief who conned his way into the mayor's office.
He is all noise and you are as hireling doing a great beating on the empty barrel. Come again mercy!

Ms. Bolus,
In the past, you have written essays that were objective, fact-based, and credible. This piece does not meet those standards.

You talk a lot about the mayor getting things done but present no objective data/fact. The citations from South Carolina do not cut it for Ghana (and Accra). It is after all, an honorary degree that serves Mr. Vanderpuije and Benedict College's self-interest. (In fact, South Carolina itself has little to teach Ghana on education, objectivism, and science, considering their approach to the Common Core standards at this point).

1. From the video that was your inspiration, it looks like the Mayor himself was lawless. The mayor is not a policeman or judge, he was not dressed appropriately to stop traffic, and his entire team looked like a mob.

2. When was it ever acceptable for a strategic leader to arrest for "arrogance and ignorance", for blowing a car horn as a mob?

3. When was it ever acceptable to chase away hawkers when the "government" of Accra has not provided adequate public infrastructure as alternative?

QUESTION: Did you miss the photos the other day, where a lot of the garbage collected on Sanitation Day in Accra is still sitting on the side of streets curbs, in Accra?
