Paragraphing is important, but Akoto and his team at Ghanaweb don't know it. The writer might have chuncked his ideas in paragraphs but Akoto and his team lumped everything together this way to make the text very clumsy for the reader. That's the problem that Ghanaweb creates for readers.

Don't fret yourself. Mahama's promises as usual. This project will never see daylight.

Hello Dr. Bokor,
Another critical piece. Well said.
It's now the turn of the politician to read this piece and learn from it.
It's also time for the politician to address the practical needs of the masses and stop using them merely as political expendables.
After all, 2016 is around the corner. The people's franchise may not translate into an electoral positive for President Mahama if he continues to take the people for granted.
Thanks, Dr. Bokor. Good work. We expect more of this from you. Have a great week.

I have noted with utter contempt your pathetic insults directed at Francis in particular. Clearly, this a man you are not even fit to be in his lecture room, as you simply don't have the intelligence and level of education to be his student. And yet, you who is hardly literate called him "stupid fool", whatever that means.
So what's wrong if he s friend of Dr Bokor, an acclaimed scholar in his institution of higher learning in the US?
You referred to Dr Bokor as a "stnking partisan Ewe". Have you seen even his picture (once posted on Ghanaweb too when he won an award) before, not to mention seen him in person? He was looking debonair (hope u understand the word), well-cut in his fitting, expensive suit and definitely handsome. A man you can say is living the middle class life in the US. No doubt about that. So what makes you think that he is stinking? Bcos he is an Ewe? Or what do you mean by that? You "these Akans" are indeed incorrigibly blighted by the warped mentality you inherited from your slave raiding and selling ancestors! Tweah! You wait until I show you pepper! We'd see where your bigotry will take you, dzimakplaviwo!
Partisan? That he obviously doesn't like and root for the NPP, which you obviously root for? Does that make you partisan? Yes, he prefers the NDC, just like the majority of Ghanaians in the last 2 Gen. Elections, and so what? So what is partisan about this particular article? Is he supporting President Mahama in another apparently quixotic promise? Perhaps, if you NPP people know how to write sensible articles, we should have read this excellent piece from one of you. At least, within the NDC, they don't keep quiet when they see even their Presidents doing things they don't like. Not even Rawlings was spared a revolt when in power! In fact, there were many. Some of us who are not supporters of the NDC see that as a major redeeming feature of the NDC party - people with a conscience and always ready to speak out! In the NPP, such rare people are considered as oddities and are threatened and abused mercilessly!

Dear Brother Yao,
How are you doing?
I just read your comments to GIRLS SP.
I hardly read his comments after reading a couple of them. Actually he has nothing constructive to contribute to national development, unity, etc.
I have the strong impression that he has no clue what is discussed on Ghanaweb by serious columnists and commentators. The interesting thing is I have developed a "thick skin" for such readers as GIRLS SP.
Look, Brother Andy, Dr. Michael Bokor, our good brother, has written a very powerful piece, which I believe is one of his best, and here we are with this GIRLS SP clearly demonstrating a clear misunderstanding of the substantive issues he raises.
Dr. Michael Bokor is a well-respected and one of the pillars in the English
Department at Long Island University.
The head of the English Department does not joke with him at all. I know this for a fact. In fact, a couple of courses he designed for the department has brought him accolades and serious attention. I have a brother at Long Island University. I also have many friends at Long Island University. Besides, he is not the type to come to Ghanaweb and boast. This is why I respect and admire him.
Any one doubting should visit his classes and see the caliber of students he teaches at the graduate levels, etc., as well as the courses he teaches. And here we have GIRLS SP making fun at a respected professor who teaches at one of America's and New York's important Universities.
Anyway, thanks Brother Andy. More serious issues are coming the way of GIRLS SP and his juvenile whines will not stop anyone.
Have a great weekend, Brother Andy.

There is a Korle ecological restoration project that has plans for cleaning up the estuary, having 5 star hotels, boating facilities etc. the site is currently called Sodom and Gomorrah and is one of the filthiest places in Accra. It is continuously expanding and is mostly inhabited by our brothers from the North. Would it qualify as a Zongo and benefit from the intended development? The economic benefits to dealing with Sodom and Gomorrah are immense, but it is becoming obvious that nobody is paying attention to it. Other neighbourhoods need children's play grounds etc. why does the President think that only Zongos need social amenities. Is it because Zongos are mostly inhabited by his kith and kin? Rwanda, and now Iraq should teach us that the over concentration of political leaders on ont their tribes or clans leads to social tensions and explosion. A word to the wise.

For politician making promise is to tell us we are fools... promise them heaven and if you don't meet it they think you still have them in in mind to fulfil. To my Zongo people this 419 so they should not think about it
