We learn from the Holy Scriptures that it is not everybody who shouts, “Awurade ee Awurade ee” that will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. We are also warned to beware of wolves in sheep clothing who will use guile, deceit and lies to ensnare the gullible ones down the primrose way to the everlasting bonfire. When Mills was declared winner of the Run-Off Election by the Electoral Commission, Ghanaians felt they had got a Father for all as President. Most people were easily taken in by the seemingly pious posture of the President. Who wouldn’t, for after all, had he not presented himself as a Christian of the first order? But I was one person who did not join the bandwagon. I had taken time to study the antecedent of Professor Mills and come to the conclusion that he was not the “messiah” Ghanaians need. His credentials did not come anywhere near the qualities Christ espoused to his disciples.

But knowing the mentality of the average Ghanaian, the sycophants had a field day portraying the President as Godsent and a man of integrity. But soon after assuming the reigns of power, he began to reveal his ugly side which made many people believe that he was being held hostage by a cabal of unpatriotic and power hungry people.

Foot soldiers from their nefarious contraption took the laws into their hands and behaved as if they were masters unto themselves. Instead of calling them to order, the President warned his appointees of dire consequences if they failed to open their doors to the foot soldiers. Thus, they went about doing what they knew best – rampaging, beating, maiming and destroying life and property on a scale never before experienced in the history of mankind. The destruction wrought by the barbarian invaders pale into insignificance when compared with that of the NDC foot soldiers.

They declared some D/MCE’s persona non grata and warned them of imminent death if they set foot in their offices. They took over, lorry stations and toilets, drove officials of NHIS out of their offices, destroyed tender documents, seized the NDC Headquarters and strategic State Assets like the Adomi Bridge and started collecting tolls at both sides. It took several hours before they were flushed out of the place by the security forces.

In all these instances, the President maintained a stony silence while destruction, chaos and vandalism had a field day. The reason, I am reliably informed, had to do with a MAGIC/JUJU RING which the President wore between the months of September and December, 2008. In going for the ring, the President was warned of grave implication that would befall him if he attempted to stem the tide of the actions of the miscreants.

The situation is similar to what befell the Israelites when King David, against the advice of Joab, his army Commander decided to count his soldiers. God’s anger was kindred against him and asked David to make a choice among three disasters. In the President’s case, he was told that armed robbery, assassination, accidents, lawlessness, harsh economic conditions and decline in Sports would be the consequences. The President decided it was okay by him. It is true that the President, John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills wore a ring between September, 2008 and December, 2008. It is equally true that he had a plaster on his finger before the ring was worn. But which type of ring was it? It was obviously not a wedding ring. We all are in agreement on that. What was the purpose of the ring? Why did he wear it for only that brief period? Why has he stopped wearing it? And by the way, where is the ring? Where did he buy it from and who prepared it for him? These are questions the President, John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills should give clear and concise answers to. He should come up with his answers in order to set the minds of the over 22million or so Ghanaians at ease.

Dominic Nitiwul, MP for Bimbilla provided the relevant evidence with the picture of the President conspicuously displaying the magic/juju ring in the Daily Graphic. Pictures do not lie. Do they? Then one of the contenders to the “Chemical Ali” accolade came out which what appears to be the official statement on the juju/magic ring. And what was it? That the President received some cuts on his palm after shaking hands with one Chief from the Western Region. Hmmn…. Insult to the Chiefs and People of the Western Region: Aba! Junior Chemical Ali, how can you concoct such a presumptuous statement like that? What you, Ghana Junior Chemical Ali, are telling us is that the chiefs in the Western Region have potent juju which could “immobilize” even the President of Ghana to such an extent that he had some deep cuts on his fingers. Is this not an insult to the chiefs and people in the Western Region?

Is the President a devout Christian? Does he believe in Occultism? From our Chemical Ali’s analysis, the ring was a counter measure, our President, John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills, who is portrayed by his devotees as a committed Christian of the highest order and a man of integrity went to consult an Occultist or a juju man to make him a “protective” shield. Yes, that is the implication. If the President claims to be a Christian as he would want the whole world to know, why did he not resort to prayers when he found out the deep cuts on his palm as the Bible teaches all believers to do? Where is his faith? But he claims he is a devoted Christian and has turned the Castle into a “Prayer Camp”. By the way, was the ring supposed to be what is known in some circles as “Return to Sender”. If it is so, then it will reveal how vindictive the President is! “Vengeance is mine” says the Lord. And in the midst of the President’s adversity, he forgot one Cardinal Christian Principle to love his neighbor as himself.

No other Press Release has come out to counter what our Junior Chemical Ali released and so we take it as the official version. But what puts some clouts in his statement is that the President wore the ring on his left finger. It is unGhanaian and an insult of the highest order to greet your elders with the left hand. You see, Professor Mills might be the President of the country but to greet a Chief with the left hand is the greatest disrespect he can show to his elders.

Repercussions of the Magic or Occult Ring: Ghanaians have never experienced negative things as we are having under this occultist who has sold the soul and spirit of the nations to his occult masters. You see, Haiti has been experiencing a spate of unnatural disasters because of the practice of voodoo by its leaders. How many accidents have we had since the beginning of the year? Countless! And how many Ghanaians have lost their lives? Over 600! What about our Sports? I have stated that the laurels which Ghana attained in Sports during the NPP era are all being eroded – thanks to the magic ring worn by our President! To be eliminated by war torn Sudan and under-nourished Ethiopia on our own “papa land” is unfathomed in the history of Ghanaian football. Now our female football teams, the Under 17, the Satellites and the Black Meteors have all been eliminated from FIFA Organized and the Olympics Competitions! Why?

Nobody is ever going to convince me that our woes do not stem from the wearing of the magic ring by the President? If you contradict me, tell me why he wore the ring. Yes, you’ve got to tell me why? Let the President, John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills submit the ring to a panel of experts and let us subject it to “chemical interrogation”. That is the only way my mind would be at ease.

We have a selfish and vindictive President who does not care what happens to the country if only and his cronies could have the best of everything. His devotees refer to him as a man of integrity but he is not. They say he is a committed Christian, but he wore a magic ring. His appointees insult their political opponents, but he elevates them instead of reprimanding them.

Mahama Ayariga ‘doled out almost 100million Cedis to NDC serial callers to insult NPP officers and the President gives them a pat on the back. This was narrated by no less a person but “Dr Asemfoforo”.

The President ordered the Chief Accountant and the Chief Director at the Sports Ministry to be sacked after they had made damning allegations against Alhaji Muntaka Mubarak, the then Sports Minister.

The President has become the Ananias of Ghanaian politics when he ‘coached’ and taught his Deputy Minister of Sports to lie to Ghanaians. Eg Nii Nortey Duah The President, after he and his notorious contraption had made Issa Mobillah’s issue a high profile case assumed power and the three accused persons in the case were handed over to him and his security capos. But President Mills and the top security men deliberately allowed one of the accused persons to escape from lawful custody and it took more than six months before Ghanaians were alerted about the escape. That was enough time to make the man escape cover his tracks. Was that one of the repercussions of wearing the magic ring?

The Gambian Government paid compensation for the murder of some Ghanaians by the Gambian security apparatus and it took more than 6 months before Ghanaians were told that some compensation had been paid. By the way, have the bereaved families been identified and compensation paid to them?

Four Ghanaians created by God in his own image were slaughtered in front of Agbogbloshie Police Station more than two years ago. Till date, the Police have not ordered any investigations into the case.

About one and a half years ago, a pregnant woman died mysteriously at the BNI Headquarters. Till date, no investigations have been conducted into the circumstances leading to her death.

But when the Deputy Minister of Energy, Alhaji Inusa Fuseini lost her wife at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, the President quickly ordered an investigation into the circumstances leading to the death. In order to fish out the culprits The President and the NDC are administering the country as if it was their own fief. They have thrown the Procurement Act into the waste paper basket. Can you imagine that in 2008, a six unit classroom block which cost 800 MILLION CEDIS now costs more than 2.6 BILLION CEDIS? And they tell us inflation has gone down! Is the President, who is touted as a devout Christian, but wore a magic ring deliberately creating avenues for his agents/appointees to milk the country dry? I am tempted to believe that it is part of the money which the President used to renovate his family house? Contradict me if I am wrong.

The President and the NDC have deliberately refused to repair the meter gauge used to measure the oil output in the country. And we are told it costs less than $60,000.00. Why haven’t they repaired it? It is because they want to short- change Ghanaians. And a President who claims to be a Christians is superintending all these rot in the system!

The President is a man of violence: Yes, anywhere the President is, he is surrounded by violence. Let us not forget the NDC Congress which saw him emerge as his party’s Presidential Candidate. Frances Essiam was beaten to pulp. Obed Asamoah was glued to his seat for more than 16 hours and could not even get up to attend to nature’s call. Recently, when Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings went for her vetting, Mills and his GAME supporters went to unleash their violence on FONKAR members. I learnt some placard demonstrating against Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings were found in the office of Anita de Souza, the Jezebel in the NDC, who against all human feelings deliberately and recklessly drove her car into a human barricade at Abomoso. What had the President done about that? When some Aides of Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo beat up some supporters of Allan Kyerematen, in the run-up to the NPP Presidential Primaries, Nana personally visited the victims, paid their hospital bills and suspended his Aides who carried out that dastardly act.

On Tuesday, 3rd July, 2007, a body guard of the then President Mills, together with Nii Lante Vanderpuye assaulted one Kojo Yeboah an NDC member at Cow Lane. What was his crime? The poor man had stated on air that Nii Lante Vanderpuye had cheated the party of $2,000.000. Mills and Koku Anyidoho stated that they were investigating the matter and that disciplinary action would be taken against the security detail if he was found culpable. Till date, the Christianity in the President had made it impossible for the President to tell us the outcome of their investigations. I learnt the Security man was the one who “capriciously”, “whimsically” and “huhudously” seized the car belonging to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

In all these instan ces, why has the President not acted? He has not done so because serious repercussions would befall his person if he does so. But we should remember what befell Eli and the Israelites when the former did not reprimand his sons who became law unto themselves and chose the choicest parts of the offerings brought before the Lord. Israel lost the battle and that is what will befall the country if we allow this evil and satanic regime to supersede the affairs of the country again

Did Mills not support Rawlings who said at that time that they have tapes linking some fourteen or so ministers in Kufuor’s Government with the killing of the Ya Nah.? Now they are questioning the credibility of Rawlings and the tapes. How could a Christian condescend to that level? What the President did is similar to the false witnesses who testified against Jesus and Stephen. But I don’t blame the President. He was acting under the influence of the magic ring. Let me end by stating that the President has by all his utterances and actions revealed that he is far from being a Christian. He wore a juju ring. And lest I forget, they say that the ring is so powerful that he had to put a plaster on the finger before wearing the ring. Do we, as Ghanaians, leave our destiny in the hands of these agents of the devil? No, we shouldn’t! If we do, posterity will never forgive us!

You have been warned. Do not say I did not tell you! There are some things over which we have no control. There are some things over which we have been allotted a degree of control.

The President wears a juju ring. Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo does not. Which of them is better? The President, John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills goes about flaunting his Christian credentials, but every act or utterance of his does not portray him as one. Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo does not shout about his Christian principles. Which of them is a Pharisee? Vote Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo to free yourself and descendants from Occultism and Black Magic!
