Rev. Prof. Martey, did they also ask you not to speak about Ghana's oil contracts?

  THE TALKING PROFESSOR SHOULD NO JUST TALK ABOUT THE OIL CONTRACTS UNDER NDC, THEY SHOULD TALK ALSO ABOUT THE ORIGINAL CONTRACTS THAT KUFFOUR AND HIS CRONIES SIGNED AND MADE A LOT OF MONEY.

  It is a pity that upon all that we have been making public, 99.9% of you guys don't seem to understand what this is all about. This is no rocket science and you don't have to pass your O'L Maths to even evaluate the calculations sent so far. It is simply multiplication and then percentages!
  
  What is difficult is the theory and knowledge to assess what is put out, e.g., what is Profit Tax, Govt Take, what concession and PSA are what applies under them, etc., but we have supplied enough written stuff for one to even become an "expert" on the subject. But it is not certainly difficult at all to understand that all that Prof. Lungu and "his cronies" have written about and based their assessment of the $6bn+ lost so far is the Jubilee Fields Agreement!!! And that Agreement was signed by the NPP, not the NDC! So we have been writing about an Agreement signed by Kufuor under the NPP, not by either Mills nor Mahama under the NDC! I HOPE YOU ALL GET THIS AT AT LAST!
  
  We are exasperated that even degree holders can't understand simple facts and then begin to respond to the enormity of what is happening. They appear to be totally lethargic in their minds.
  
  As of the NDC Agreements, you'd be shocked what they have been doing. Far bigger losers to come.
  
  Heard of the Swiss African one with a Pet Volta local partner supposed to operate in the Keta Basin? It turned out it was just a Mum and Pop deal. The Swiss is Swiss and the Pet is the Ghanaian Wife, parents from Asadame and Alakple! We don't even know whether they owned a petrol tanker before, not to mention a Petrol Filling Station! We are indeed in perilous times! Their thinking is if Kufuor did it with the E&O Group, we can do better! After all, even Ghanaian PhD holders don't have a clue and don't give a damn what's happening, judging from the few number of people who have signed petition so far! And the kind of lame comments we get, like that one from the moronic jerk calling himself Dr Otto. Gosh! No wonder Ken Kuranchie came out of prison and pronounced all Ghanaians as not civilised! Some of us have transcended that cosmological barrier!
  
  I wonder if some people think we are losers and can't also join to create, loot and share Ghana. We know all who is who in both big parties and some more. Anyone here knows that a Kwawukume was in the LegCo from 1916-42? Efo Solo, our in-house expert on the subject, was attending the Tamakloe family meeting with Ibrahim Mahama with John Mahama in tow in the days when he was just an ordinary person. Both the NDC and NPP will give an arm to have us in their ranks. You'd be surprised who's one of our family lawyers in the other disputation we have - the Awoeme Fia succession dispute. No other person than Atta Akyia.

  WE SAY: Yes, it is part of the far bigger losses under the NDC, and KOSMOS-Tullow and the foreign-owned oil companies are treating Ghanaians, including those with the big titles in the big bureaus, like malleable "Pets".
  
  And most, including Rev. Professor Martey and the Ghana Christian Council, do not give a pesewa!

  Further, we want to note this:
  If we know anything about Ghana, although we do not know the origins of the word, that word, "PEPENI", is derogatory.
  
  I'd recommend not responding the any character that uses that word on these pages, no matter what they say.
  
  Greetings!

  You, Prof Lungu, and Efo Solo are doing a good job of educating the public but these human aberrations fail to see beyond their noses.

  We cannot allow them to continue to dominate the terrain anymore. I just fired a salvo at my Mawuli School Year Group, where religious weirdos rule with their inane postings. They are now expoecting the rapture this 23 or 24 Sept. It appears that's what dominate Ghanaian Whatsapp group. Geee! Deserves an article: What's Up On Your Whatsapp Group?

  KA,
  
  The issue is that not technical. You don't need to have acquired you're O'L Maths in order to do or review some of that calculations. I was calculating far more complex things like the retirement benefits of people with a 4 Figure Table for my Dad before my O'L and RSA results in accounting were out. I didn't understand the principles but my father claimed I was doing it better than the staff in the office.
  
  In this case, only the principles pose problem but should be easily comprehended by an adult with a good education. But do you really need to understand the principles to judge b/n the results of the calculations of what Concession and PSA give in revenue to Ghana? NOPE! That'll be like knowing how a medicine works before taking it! Pharmacists can even explain that for some drugs! They just work, espcially those discovered by chance or from plants!
  
  Now, there are vast nuomber of things in things in this issue even an uneducated person can ask a question about if shown the data which cinclict with what the govt agencies, ACEP and others are putting out.
  
  Take for instance the claim by them that PSA is adopted by old oil producing countries such as Nigeria and Angola, and not by rookies like Ghana, as it scares investors away. Now, if someone came out with a long list of rookies like Ghana which have adopted PSA, with not even one adopting Concession, is that not grounds to query those asserting a falsity and thereby lying to Ghanaians? Should they not be questioned and ask why they are telling the untruth, good Christians and Muslims that they claim to be?
  
  I can go on a list a number of things - they have all been listed many times already - which contradict with the govt and those supporting its position but it'd be a waste of time at the moment. Got other pressing things to do.
