As for me Nana Biakoye, I will not stop praising my maker while I have breath in me.
O yes, it is God who is keeping the Atta Mills Administration from sinking in vile propaganda of the narcotics peddlers party, and I am happy that once again God has protected his anointed son – Atta Mills.
God, in his infinite wisdom, has prevented Kufuor from using his stolen wealth to pay for the Mo Ibrahim award and for him to use the award to create a false impression about himself and succeed in also creating the impression that the Atta Mills Administration is engaged in a smear campaign to paint him black when the rest Africa considers him to be an icon of democracy and good governance. It is a matter of fact that realizing that he is sinking under the weight of his corrupt deeds (especially with the stinking $30 million Vodafone kickback deal weighing him down) Kufuor is believed to have forked out $10 million to pay for the award.
Kufuor was looking for the award so he can use his stolen wealth to pay international PR firms to blow his tattered image out of proportion.
But thanks to divine intervention, Mo Ibrahim did not succumb to the $10 million monetary inducement to cheapen his award.
By refusing to allow Kufuor to use his dirty money to pay for the award, what Mo Ibrahim has done, is to say that Kufuor is a criminal who deserves to spend time in jail.
O yes, we can now jail Kufuor and there would be no sympathy from any quarters. Honestly, it would have been better for Kufuor if had not been shortlisted. To be shortlisted and told in the face that you do not deserve the award; that is a serious indictment.
Poor John Agyekum Kofi Diawuo “50 Cents” Kufuor, he must be sitting in his airport residential area palace imagining his torso warming some cold floor in Nsawam prison or possibly contemplating suicide. Naniama!!!
Was it not Kufuor who wickedly released armed robbers from Nsawam on the eve of his leaving office? Well, he will go and replace the armed robbers in Nsawam. Dzulor Kwakwe!!!
When he was looting and stealing “fuka fuka” and chopping our monies “nyafu nyafu” he thought he would be President for life.
Now that the whole world knows that he is a thief and a common criminal, we are waiting to see how he will carry himself about.
It would be nice to see this common criminal bundled into a police van and being whisked to spend time in jail for theft.
After all, in the Philipines, Joseph Estrada was jailed; so same can happen in Ghana.
When President’s turn themselves into common thieves, they must be treated as such.
I hear Kufuor is now looking for emissaries to send to President Mills to go and beg for mercy from the state since it is now clear that Ghanaians are prepared to jail Kufuor for his looting and stealing acts.
President Mills swore to uphold the constitution and govern according to the rule of law and so if Kufuor has to go to jail, there is nothing President Mills can do about it.
Indeed, if President Mills attempts to shield Kufuor from jail, the people of Ghana will not accept it lying down.
If nothing at all, at least Kufuor must be made to appear before a Commission of Inquiry (as is happening to Kwadwo Mpiani and Tarzan) for Ghanaians to watch Kufuor fumble and tell lies in his attempt to lamely defend his indefensible stealing and corrupt acts.
This is not about a hate campaign; it is about a President who spent 8 years trying to pan former President Rawlings and the NDC out as thieves while he was busy stealing the nation’s wealth, selling off the nation’s prized assets and pocketing huge kickbacks.
President Rawlings has been out of office for almost a decade and not s single case of corruption has been brought against him; Kufuor has been out of office for less than a year and between him and Kwadwo “Mugu Yaro” Mpianin, they are involved in almost every stinking NPP looting and thieving deal. Disgraceful lot!
Now that Kufuor’s once vociferous PR machinery is dead silent on the Vodafone $30 million kickback matter, is ipso facto that Kufuor has been left on his own to swim in his sea of a possible jail term.
Do I have any sympathy for the thieving Kufuor? God forbid!!!
