  Why didn't your NPP looting brigade change it during the 2000-2008? I for one, prefer Daddy Lumba's "yentie obiaa". You and your sore losers must stop wasting our time with your bunch of nonsense!!!!

  I like comment #3. It's simple: I don't know why you are combining such "BIG" words---"If you can't explain it simple enough, then you don't understand it yourself" (A. EINSTEIN). Let's take it this way, it is a competition to compose the anthem. The author with the open-minded imagination wins the competition, 'of course if the judges are equally open minded.' Just create a product in one language and put it in the open market, the modal purchase will come from those whose mother's tongue it was produced. NOW translate the product into other languages, though the purchases will now increase, the rate of increment will be marginal, WHY?...Because not everything can be translated EXACTLY into a different language. In this case when the product is not for sale but to EQUALLY benefit all tribes in Ghana, the wisest way would be to choose a NEUTRAL LANGUAGE. If many from your tribe cannot understand, WHOSE FAULT? WHY IS IT THAT WHEN TWO PARTIES ARE IN A CONFLICT, THE JUDGE OR MEDIATOR IS NOT CHOSEN FROM EITHER OF THEM, except for necessity??

  After reading your article right now, I have been forced to review the words in both songs, and I have really come to appreciate the words in the "Y3n ara Asase ni" for the very first time.
  
  I believe it sound more patriotic and all-encompassing.I really love the part that says " Aduru me wo nso so, s3 y3b3y3 bi atoa so"...
  
  I will support any argument that calls for a change in the national Anthem, after all, ITS BETTER LATE THAN NEVER
