We all know the conspiracy to murder and kill Mills was engineered by the pepeni/ayigbe wicked anti Akan agenda and one of the triggers was the reestablishment of diplomatic relations with our brothers the Isrealis . Now they wish us to make enemies with our natural allies in the west so we estranged with our diaspora . I wonder why this NDC mafia/muslim group did not organize this demo during the Arab spring when they were killing our Akans in the tens of thousands all over . Why don't we see demos in front of the Libyan , Syrian , Morocco , Tunisia , Egypt and Saudi embassies ? why do they want to turn this country into another anti American / west fortress of stupidity. Did it ever cross their retarded minds that over half a million Akans live in Germany and over a million in the USA due the exodus caused by the wickedness and discrimination of the jj rawlings fake revolution? I will not mention the rest of the countries that accepted our people and gave them a chance to live comfortably yet they want to make propaganda war against these nations. Let them bus these fools to the embassy and i hope they have said their last goodbyes to their mothers as we will ambush them with our cutlasses and make sure they never go back home . we shall instruct our criminals and armed robbers to put their nefarious activities to good use and start targeting only ndc homes and their sympathizers . We shall make Ghana very unsafe for them as they have free accommodation , free food , free cars , free house boys and girls so can misbehave whenever they wake up. Americans despite some of their mischief with Monsanto and other foolishness are still our brothers and we will make sure all people who mean us well continue to feel welcome . Did it even cross the minds of these idiotic ndc that the person who wrote that tweet had every right since they were most likely half Akan and are disgusted by the careless irresponsible way the ndc are ruling ?

How I wish I had the wherewithal to appoint this man, Amidu as the Attorney General again.

John Dramani Mahama has no shame and no credibility otherwise he would have appointed this one and only good NDC man Attorney General, not today or yesterday but the very day he assumed the mantle of leadership of this country. But alas, he himself is soiled with corruption big time, hence wouldn't want somebody like Amidu looking over his shoulders. The only way Mahama can win the trust, respect and confidence of the people back in fighting corruption, is to get this man back as soon as possible in the AG's department. Anything less than that is just lip service.

How can we waste the talent of such a person as Mr. Amidu baffles and boggles my mind. Are we that stupid? Damn!

Kofi Asamoah is a dead goat who should retire by now but is keeping on keeping on. The Month of JULY the Akans call it KITAWONSA - SYMBOLISING A CHALLENGING MONTH, BECAREFUL, HOLD ON, ETC. KOFI ASAMOAH and the TUC are RATHER INSENSITIVE to the needs of Ghanaians in General. they are self-fish and think only about their pockets. We want Ghana to develop. we cannot eat our cake and have it. Kofi Asamoah should offer alternative ideas as to how to resolve the depreciation of the cedi, reduction in fuel prices, reduction in utility tariffs among others. We cannot continue to subsidise fuel, water, electricity at the expense of national development. Kofi Asamoah should not behave like Smart Chikabatia, who fought for the wife to become deputy minister under Kuffour regime. Kofi Asamoah should go on retirement.

It's unfortunate it has gotten to this in our beautiful Ghana.

It hurts to think of the economic cost of the strikes to the nation but i think it's a way to get the current leaderships' attention to what is really happening in the counrty.
They need to be made to understand that the bubble in which they live is not real and that Ghanaians are suffering, everything in the country has become unaffordable... Sugar, milk, rice, gari, nkontomire, bayere(yam)...everything...
Employers can't pay our workers because of hikes in operating cost. Businesses are running at a loss and yet we keep increasing tax percentages (to tax what? i don't know)
My good friend Haruna....in as much as i like you as a person and believe you mean well...I think the time has come for TUC and Organised labour to return the favour....YENTIE OBIAAAAA...

The state does not manufacture, trade and is only involved in the distribution of utilities. The unions went to negotiation and got what they want and if they are not satisfied they have to go by the rules regarding collective agreements.
Part XVII, Section 130 of the Labour Act, 2004, Act 651 states: Subject to the other provisions of this Act, if a worker on any activity shall cause serious interference with the business of his or her employer that may result in financial loss, the worker is guilty of unfair labour practice.
There is no industrial dispute between workers who want to go on strike on 24/7/2014, thus any strike taken by such workers or group of workers in an Illegal Strike. Such workers have not informed the Labour Commission of any dispute between them and their employer, if that employer is the state.
PART XIX, Section 168 states: (1)Subject to section 159 and 160, a strike or lockout is legal if it it in sympathy with or in support of a strike action taken by another worker or group of workers against their employer on account of an industrial dispute with the employer.
We state that industrial dispute between workers under the unions were resolved through negotiations this year thus there does not exist one.
(2) A person who declares or instigates or incites others to take part in a strike or lockout or acts in furtherance of a strike or lockout which is illegal under subsection (1) is liable for any damage, loss or injury suffered by any other person as a result of the illegal strike or lockout.
Section 169,subsection (3) states: Nothing in this PART, shall render lawful an act of physical coercion or violence against any person or damage to the property of any person where the act or damage is an offence under the Criminal Code. 1960 (Act 29).

Who doesn't need progress? Unfortunately however, in Ghana where everything exist knowledge is expended on destruction . A stone at the bed of a river will never be moist except cold.

Kofi Asamoah reduce your beer intake and you will cope with the economy. The economic hardship should help us change our frivolous life styles. Let us discipline our spending.
