Letter From The President: Okro mouth Ekessu

Fri, 2 Dec 2005 Source: J. A. Fukuor/Daily Dispatch

Countrymen and women, loyalists and opponents,

I think the gods have turned their back on me (and my party). I don?t know what we did wrong but I feel strongly that we are being punished for some acts of omission or commission. First an MP from my party is arrested for allegedly trying to sell heroine in the Bushman?s territory ? a serious embarrassment for my party and country. Then, I hear that the MP is talking like a parrot mentioning names of some leading members of my party, a situation which would only bring more shame to my party. I know that justice will have its cause in the US courts as far as the case of the heroine-trafficking MP is concerned. We wait to see.
