COMRADE JERRY JOHN RAWLINGS, THE ORDINARY GHANAIAN MISSES YOU ALREADY JUST FOUR YEARS ON

Just in four years, Ghanaians are missing you as the most honest Ghanaian leader of integrity under the 1992 Constitution, a hard taskmaster, with a heart of tolerance and magnanimity. We are still looking beyond the horizon and wondering when salvation will come to Ghanaians again under the 1992 Constitution you gave to our homeland Ghana. I salute you Comrade, and assure you that as long as we live on this earth we shall continue to fight, fight, and fight for the egalitarian ideals that underpinned our revolution.

POLITICS OF DESPERATION FOR POLITICAL POWER IN GHANA - SITTING MPs AS INDEPENDENTS

The 2024 elections in Ghana must be fought and won on the integrity, honesty and policy programmes of the various candidates and their political parties. The unnecessary hyping of national tensions and promotion of violence which has the propensity to implode the 1992 Constitution just for the sake of raw power for its own sake without the interests of the citizens at heart must stop. Beware of 4 June 1979! Beware of 31 December 1981! None of the two major political parties will win when they undermine and facilitate the implosion of the 1992 Constitution.

NO INTENTION TO DEFAME DR. MICHAEL ABU SAKARA IN ARTICLE ON NDC JOINING KISSI AGYEBENG AND JOY FM

The two mango trees and other commendable narratives which the intermediary I asked to reach out to Dr. Sakara passed on to me showed clearly that Dr. Sakara is a self-accomplished person and not the fruit of the mango tree that falls only to stay where it fell. Dr. Sakara and I know each other, and you need not remind me of his accomplishment and prominence as a Ghanaian leader and politician. I will be the last person to defame Dr. Sakara and I completely disagree with your assertion that I defamed him in my article under reference.

SPEAKER BAGBIN, THE NDC, AND THE “DIRE NEED OF FUNDS BECAUSE OF THE ECONOMIC CRISIS”

The NDC can close its eyes to their self-confessed corrupt Speaker refusing to divulge his ailment for which the taxpayer doles out millions of cedis and foreign currency in Dubai but can use the “dire need of funds because of the economic crisis” as a reason for rejecting the tax waivers it has similarly approved under the NDC and NPP Governments until the dawn of the next elections in a few months time on 7 December 2024. Every patriot has a duty to ensure that the 1992 Constitution is defended, and the electorate is not Zombified into merely voting for rhetoric instead of on credible and cogent facts, and evidence meriting their votes.

BAGBIN - NO WITHDRAWAL AND APOLOGY FOR WORDS YOU PUT INTO MARTIN AMIDU’S MOUTH ON BEHALF OF NDC

I wish to state for the avoidance of doubt that Mr. Bagbin shall never have a withdrawal and apology from me for words I never used in my article published in the media on 27 May 2024 which are variously true, justifiable, and constitute fair comments or questions on public matters pertaining to a public officer, the Speaker, in the public interest. By Mr. Bagbin’s statement to all media houses he implicitly admits that he is a self-confessed corrupt person which means that he has no reputation whatsoever that can be defamed by me.

NDC: THINK LONG BEFORE JOINING AGYEBENG AND JOY FM TO TRY ME IN COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION

I cannot understand why the NDC will collaborate with the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng’s preferred rented media house, Joy FM, and his chief executioner there, Sampson Lardy Anyenini, to make allegations against me without publishing the alleged petition on which the allegations are based to provide me the opportunity to confirm or deny my signature and rebut or admit the accusations. Kissi Agyebeng, Joy FM, and the NDC’s McCarthyism must be stopped by all patriotic citizens before they implode the 1992 Constitution.

NDC SUPS WITH THE DEVIL AT CHURCH ST OFFICES OF AHWOIS AND THEIR COHORT

The possibility that in addition to whatever health problems of John Mahama may be known to the Ahwois and their cohort, is there also a kitchen cabinet plan to send John Mahama to sleep early, like Professor Mills, should he perchance win the 2024 elections, to make assurance double sure that their enterprise for their surrogate to become President before 2028 and, therefore, face no opposition for the nomination as the 2027 NDC flagbearer?

LGBTQ+ AS AN INSTRUMENT OF POLITICAL ELECTIONEERING IN GHANA

The NDC and the NPP appear to be so invested in their opposing positions and the desire to use the dynamics of gay rights to win political power that they have not stopped to think about the consequences of their actions to the sustenance of constitutionalism, democracy, and the rule of law. The elders in the room who could have sought a compromise appear to have taken sides leading to both sides engaging in a dialogue of the deaf.

DAMPARE MUST GO LEAKED TAPE IS A DIVERSION TACTIC FOR LONG GAME

The leaked Dampare tape recording has achieved its objective because the NDC in particular, as well as other opposition political parties and security and intelligence operatives, have diverted their attention to defending and extolling the virtues and perceived neutrality of the IGP. The NDC and other opposition political parties ought to make haste slowly in what they say in praise or condemnation of the IGP. Consider the long game and heed the warning: “There is no art to find the mind’s construction in the face”!

STOP WEAPONIZING THE JUDICIAL PROCESS FOR THE ELECTION CYCLE

Africa has so many examples of chaos that Ghana can learn from, which is why patriotic citizens must speak up against the creeping canker of the politicization of the Office of the Attorney-General and the judiciary branch of government by the NPP and the NDC. I have raised my finger. Join me by raising your finger as a patriotic citizen so that we can together defend the 1992 Constitution against the political hawks from the NPP and the NDC. Non Desistas Non Exieris: Never Give Up Never Surrender.

CONGRATULATIONS TO NDC ON ASSIN NORTH BY-ELECTION VICTORY

The NDC must be congratulated by all patriotic persons who act apolitically in the national interest and believe in defence of the Constitution and in the sustenance of democracy and the rule of law in Ghana. I take the view that Constitutionalism won in the Supreme Court, the Attorney-General failed woefully in weaponizing the administration of criminal justice, while democracy and the rule of law won massively at the Assin North by-elections.

44TH ANNIVERSARY OF JUNE 4 AND JERRY JOHN RAWLINGS

The 44th Anniversary of the June 4 uprising is the time for the NDC to decide whether it is still a party founded by President Rawlings or one that has been taken over by the traitors that tried to re-write the history of the PNDC and NDC in the infamous Working with Rawlings. I stand with Rawlings on the occasion of the 44th Anniversary of June 4. One cannot stand with Rawlings and the traitors simultaneously. Take a side. Do not sit on the fence for it may break.

FIRST CRITIQUE OF KWAMENA AHWOI’S WORKING WITH RAWLINGS

A content analysis of the author’s chapter 4 reveals he had to doctor facts and available data to conclude that before the NCD submitted its “Evolving a True Democracy” report to the PNDC “no options were foreclosed”: “The foreclosure only came with the presentation of the NCD report to the PNDC which came down cautiously in favour of multi-party democracy”. Without inversing the facts and straining old data contained in a 4th March 1985 press statement to establish a lack of foreclosure in spite of the PNDC Chairman’s January 1991 New Year broadcast to the Nation, the author could not claim credit for his ingenious role in guiding the PNDC to the path of multi-party democracy in Ghana
