CLASH OF IDEOLOGIES.

      In a previous conversation, I told you about my decision to act like characters in action-packed movies due to a mob justice. The unnatural death of security personnel whilst on duty is becoming a customary rite and citizens must support in the fight against crime. When civilians pose a threat to the nation's security forces, then patriotism is lost to civil war and there is no collateral for the outcome.

     Amnesty International seems to ask us whether our conscience judges us right about the death penalty, that is inked in our books, despite the country's support for human rights. Death penalty  might have a long paper to explain its rationale before it was accepted. Amnesty International is seeking for a "natural death" for culprits without "artificial dying". So all die no be die, Ghana must make her children live without death penalty.

    Posterity, I will enquire about the statistics on death penalties, but deep down I must confess that it will probably not be available. Data in Ghana is go and come back affair. Is death penalty an excerpt of the Ghanaian culture?

    After the ban on some African countries by USA, the African Union (AU) lifted her voice but the deportation increases gradually. The euphoria of being granted a visa has not faded away, nothing deters the African from travelling outside Africa.

What has happened to UN's program"International Decade for people of African Descent"? A press conference on "International Decade for People of African Descent" might spark some fight for justice, recognition and developement. AU is chopping her house matter, leaving the Gulf Crisis to the other bodies. What needs to happen before the union speaks?

With incantations, some students peeped at the screen of the monitor to see their WASSCE results.
Does the National Science and Maths Quiz justify the WASSCE results in relation to Science and Mathematics? Through the lens of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, the BLACK STAR will shine to show Africa which path to take.

Hail, Science and Technology.

Bleaching Morals

Kwame Nkrumah dissolved political parties which were formed on the basis of religion, ethnic or region, to create a system were people will seek political power due to their ideologies. However, national issues seems to be choked by these ideologies. At independence, we shouted Ghana our beloved country is free but our political woes have crippled the bright thoughts of Ghanaians.

The current state of Ghana politics seems to taint logical reasoning. National issues have become debating topics for these two debating clubs; thus NPP and NDC. When the taxpayers makes his or her payments, receipts have no symbol of neither NDC nor NPP. Ebi Ghana we dey, Posterity you for shine your eyes oooo or else you need to find a cure for our political disease. Well, we still continue to enjoy our democracy.

Will the fight against corruption be futile? When students have to pay for examination papers, where lies the intergrity in raising future leaders. Is that part of the nurturing idea? Accra residents seem not to be happy when the rains bless them, I propose a swimming course for them since our gutters are choked. Posterity, check the calendar because the government aims to make Accra the clean, despite our littering habit. For now I still pledge to the service of Ghana with all my strength and with all my heart, I .........

WEEP NOT, MOTHER GHANA

Tears stream down my face as I read news stories on mob action and suicide. The list is updated, as each month has a record of deaths; which is caused by mob action at different places in the country. The court is handling some mob action cases, nonetheless, victims console themselves with the arrest of culprits and await judgment. In recent times, incidents are contradicting the hospitality nature of the Ghanaian society.

The history of mob action cannot be overlooked since the literate or illiterate, rural area or urban area, have undeniable records of mob action. Many a time victims are identified as armed robbers, thieves or murderers by the mob, on the contrary some victims have committed no crimes. Victims who survived could be counted in the country since lynching was the final stage. Will I be the next victim of mob action? Posterity, I think I need to learn kick boxing for self-defence and act like characters in action-packed movies.

Every society has its flaws hence political leaders as well as religious leaders should implement policies to curb this act. On the threshold of democracy in the country, she was applauded and supported, nonetheless the Ghanaian seems to lose trust in the social institution. Some people claim that mob action in Ghana is caused by Police who do not perform their duty in honesty and loyalty.

The advocacy of “say no to galamsey” is yielding positive results as the fight continuous. Posterity, why is the Chinese Embassy making donations to Ghana Police Service and Attorney General’s Department, claiming to be strenghthening ties. I hope the Ghanaian lives faithfully to the words of the National Pledge.


Listen keenly, Ghana lost her son due to mob action and the nation is mourning, I lay my pen on the desk for our next chat.
