Less than a week after The aL-hAJJ revealed how some individuals are plotting a Ukraine and Arab Spring-like action to remove the Mahama-led government, Managing Editor of The Insight newspaper, Kwasi Pratt Jnr, has endorsed same action against the present administration.

As if to fully throw his weight behind recently revealed plots by some ‘evil minds’ to hold the country to ransom citing sleaze, hardship and inefficiency in the country’s power sector under the Mahama government, Mr. Pratt did not mince words when he recommended ‘mass action’ as remedy to government's inability to find answers to the problems of the country including perennial flooding of the capital city.

Though he faulted both past and present governments for their inability to demolish structures on waterways, he said it was time the citizenry demanded their pound of fresh from the current managers in government because all administrations have failed.

Audaciously calling for a crucifixion of the present government for all the ‘sins’ committed by past administrations on Peace Fm’s Kokrokoo programme last week, the senior Journalist stated, “If the state will not take action, citizens must begin to take action…. Somebody must take action.”

“Maybe one day, we should take citizen action. Maybe one day, we mobilize thousands of people to take over that flight ground and demolish the walls by force. Because if the government will not do, the police will not do and the national security will not do, let’s do it ourselves. Maybe it’s about time we took action ourselves and resolved this problem,” he said.

The Insight Managing Editor’s call was necessitated by last week’s heavy downpour which led to the loss of lives and properties worth millions of Ghana Cedis.

Commenting on the incident, Mr Pratt, who is on record to have scolded the Ashanti regional chairman of the opposition New Patriotic Party for calling for similar mass action, blamed the floods on illegal structures raised by people along "flood zones" and other demarcated areas along river banks, which he said prevent the free flow of water.

Even though he voluntarily gave out the cause of the problem, his problem with governments was their inability to take all the hard decisions such as punishing and demolishing illegal structures on waterways.

With the Mahama-led administration following the footsteps of past governments in not having the political will to clear the nuisance on the waterways, he recommended mass action to force it (government) take action or the citizens themselves take steps to pull down the unauthorized structures.

Last week, The aL-hAJJ revealed how some people plan to cash on the ills at the nation’s power sector, economic hardship and allegation of graft in government to replay the dreaded mass protest in Arab countries and Ukraine that led to the premature removal of sitting presidents.

Organizers of the immoral plot are said to have lined-up several activities to achieve the diabolic agenda and would in the coming days rolled into action mini-demonstrations in the NPP’s stronghold of Kumasi and Koforidua to draw support for a subsequent one million-man match in Accra to force president Mahama and vice president Amissah Arthur to resign from office.
