Ghana’s Oil is FINISHED

In my last Article when I said the oil belonged to Rawlings and Atta Mills I was deemed a charlatan, a narcissist and, a clown. Well, in less than I week I have been proven right. It has been recently announced that the oil has been mortgaged for 20 years! That’s right ladies and gentlemen. 20 years of oil revenue is GONE! What do we get for it? 30,000 houses!

You read that RIGHT BLIND MAN! 30,000! Not, 3 Million! NOPE! 30,000! 10 years of oil GONE! 30,000 Korean build mud huts!!!! That is all our oil is worth! The worst of the news is the fact that only a small number of Ghanaians will benefit! Namely, the cost of them will be out of the budget of even many middle income Ghanaians… Thus, who will benefit? FORIENGERS! YEP! That’s right. Dr. Fiifi Atta Mills is building 30,000 houses for foreigners to come enjoy and, he is using our (his?) oil money to build it! Are we surprised?

The answer is HELL NO, we are not surprised by this dirty corrupt government made up of Team D(DEVIL) ministers. History tells us that the NDC ruined our Gold to the extent that even though there has been a gold boom for 5 years, the bad deals we signed under the NDC have rendered us slaves who get 3 percent while the foreign companies get 97 percent. 3 oranges for us and 97 for the foreign companies… The oil which was Gods last chance to Ghana has now been effectively ruined by Dr. Atta Mess!

In building 30,000 houses for foreigners, Dr. Atta Mills basically confirmed that Ghana is a nation that will always be a beggar, always be poor, always unfortunately losing its citizens either as slaves or economic refugees!

30,000 houses for foreigners! That is all our oil got us! We should not be surprised though. Anything less from this administration would have been shocking. Namely, this is an administration that made us refugees in Togo, seized our toilets, took the cars our relative abroad sent us for themselves, killed our brothers and sisters at the BNI and, numerous other ills. Thus, why should they not ruin our last hope!

Why should they not KILL the flame in our hearts! After all, they have effectively brought us 2 years of misery thus, when it rains it pours! Keep it coming Dr. Mess! After all, when God blessed us with the NPP we looked him straight in the EYE and said, “They’re not good enough”. We told God the NPP was not good enough and, he gave us the NDC! They old saying of, you don’t know what you have until is gone, is relevant to our predicament.

I know that I am not the only citizen that misses the hope we had in 2007 before this dirty administration came to power. Now, the only hope we have is the hope that we will not all be dead by 2012 when the time comes to vote this dirty administration out of power. After all, they have killed our last dream! Ruined our last chance! Made us slaves to the IMF and Koreans thus, our only hope left is to kick them out and, investigate these dirty deals they have signed. Too bad we will not be able to get most of the money back.
