  naked, here i come

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,br /i've been wondering about all these terrorism thing and and it's counter strategies as governments are readying themselves more than ever perhaps (with all the breathing down the neck from almighty America) to keep the Osama-like elements at bay at least.br /br /so now it's become more apparent that some 'scanners' would strip me naked the next time i make the attempt to go through immigration to travel by air to some country!br /br /so i'm wondering, how about me 'physically' stripping down to my bare 'load' as soon as i get to the desk of the security agents at the points of entry/exit? so they can make the scanners rest.br /br /that might just help conserve energy as my approach would be more friendly to the environment! and it wouldn't take much effort! all i have to do is strip!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-3575975043528655651?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  coporate flatulence

   » ‎ novisi
  Dear Pal,br /i checked my mail sometime today and *bingo*!br /br /truth is, i've had this investment thing called MFUND and EPACK with the company called Databank since i was in school and i've not bothered even checking on either of them because the monies are peanuts really!br /br /wait a minute, let me rewind to about two weeks back: out of nowhere comes an email from Databank with the time stamp Thu, Jul 16, 2009 at 3:43 PM. and the content read:br /br /"Dear Valued Client,br /Kindly find attached the end of year(2008)annual report for EPACK, MFUND BFUND.br /Kind Regards,br /Client Services"br /br /br /i read it and told myself okay okay okayeeeeeeeeeeee! i wasn't bothered about the import of the mail. but something *funny* caught my attention. on the "To:" (the addressees) list were a number of email addresses that clearly belonged to a bunch of individuals who work at Databank. pause! now i'm feeling all mischievous and i want to paste the whole list here for your enjoyment but not so fast, me! i have a funny feeling i've not got my back covered well enough for that kind of mischief so let's just say there was this list. clearly someone forgot to respect the "BCc:" option.br /br /so i asked myself who the hell is doing this reckless job and hasn't the sense of care to ensure individuals privacy is protected. oh no, shame! so then i thought of emailing the company. pal, i've this disloyal erection i keep telling you about but my first reaction to issues is to think through solutions after clearly identifying a problem. so i wondered. i even have contacts there i could reach. i tossed the idea a bit here and there but i dropped it without even knowing i did till next comes a more reckless revelation.br /br /somebody sets up an email list for Databank clients and forgets or ignores or just jumps out in a huray for a bear or a nocturnal dance without minding to put in a moderation! so all clients on the list ended up receiving a reply from one of the clients called errmmmmmmmm, let's call him Potato (there are a lot of strange names in this word and i decide on this) for safety first. That reply was intended *clearly* for the consumption of Databank but not everyone on the list. and the reply read:br /br /"thanx"br /br /that was all. this fellow wanted to show Databank appreciation. that's all. and i wish he had rather hit the "Reply-All" button instead of just "Reply" as he obviously did. i wish so because whoever is in charge of client services at Databank would have then seen what ignoring the BCc can cost perhaps.br /br /but wait again. that was not all. and of course i did not expect it to be the end. i had still not emailed the company but i was no more toying with the idea like i did earlier. but that reply from Potato clearly had me smelling how a bomb the flatulence from Databank was and i couldn't help laughing out loud. i enjoyed the moment!br /br /but i was later to feel sad with a smile on my face. and i wish i had emailed the company earlier! somebody or the company as a whole met to decide to play a fast or slow or an *ignorant* one on clients. yes pal! and back to the very beginning of this narration. fast forwarded back to today. I recieved another email from Databank in reply to Potato's email and it read (note my editing some part of it):br /br /br /"Dear Valued client,br /We humbly apologize for the email response from ...*Potato's email*, a client of Databank Financial services.br /Going forward we entreat you to send all your enquiries tobr /clientservices@databankgroup and not fundclients@list.databankgroup.com.br /We are available to answer your enquiries and apologize once more.br /Kind Regards,br /Databank Client Services"br /br /br /so clearly someone or Databank as a company by some foolishly smart move wants to make Potato look like a dumb ass. Databank thinks we are all just dumbs perhaps so they can get away with playing 'foolishly' smart with us.br /br /1. Databank sets up mailing list for clients without adequate moderation but they don't acknowledge it.br /br /2. Someone at Databank *broadcasts* email addresses of individual staff of Databank to clients on the mailing list and that fault is not even mentioned.br /br /3. a client who hit's the *reply* click (perhaps unknowingly) has his individual email address being broadcast to all clients on the mailing list and he is not apologized to publicly.br /br /4. Databank apologizes "for the email response from... a client of Databank Financial services." hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! really???? smart move? i think stupid! someone call me *stupid* Obama! (Obama said the Cambridge police's action was stupid). these Databank guys don't have the decency to take responsibility! they are blaming the poor guy i elect to call Potato. i disagree with anyone who thinks Africa's disease is blame game. of course we must blame but it must be proper blame!!!br /br /so Databank might just get away with their deceitful apology. in fact i bet they will. but as for me i'm not bought one cent! and i wish they couldn't get away with this smelly flatulence of theirs! i really wish someone out there at least screams their name to shame them enough to an awakening. but i know my people to a good extent!br /br /Pal, i pray this matter doesn't end like this!br /Amen!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-8012299569268920437?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  havoc cruise

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal dear,br /we are on the havoc cruise still.br /br /and i remember all the bullying that characterize our boarding schools. before i went to boarding school, i knew this 'thing' existed but i don't remember if i ever bothered too much about it back then but of course it all came to life once i got to the boarding house!br /br /"hey you, come here!", such was the command and your name was useless whether known or not! once a junior, you were a non-entity! no questions. "look boy, obey before complain!". you would be barked at!br /br /so my first day at St. Peters School was eventful! "form-one boy", "hey form-one boy"! those calls came from all directions to mark my arrival. "hey, stop there!" the weight of that command jolted me to the realization more than ever that my uncle had long left me with a goodbye! br /br /the senior who called walked up to me looking all man, tall and muscular! i had to raise my face skywards to have a peep at his hard face! "good afternoon!" i thought the right thing to do was greet with a smile! he ignored my greeting. his face was straight. "what programme are you here to study?" "science." i answered. "small boy you want to read science heh? look up at the sky and tell me what you see". i looked up and told him i could see the sky. "is that all you can see?" this time the tone clearly sounded like gritted teeth! and i knew instantly was in for trouble! "look up again!" i did. "what do you see?" i was about bringing my head down to tell him the sun was up there too. "come on keep you head up, what do you see?" "i see the sun". if only i knew i wouldn't have said so maybe. "uhuh, good, now look at the sun and tell me what you see"! br /br /"what?" i asked myself. of course i couldn't muster the courage to put that question to the senior. it was burning hot! and thus my experience with bullying took a different dimension in my life. others were to experience worse like being asked to fill a bucket with water using a spoon from our school pond which was about half a kilometer away from the dormitories.br /br /Pal, these were the memories that came back to me when i heard the news about the GBC boss Mr. Ampem Darko being asked to do the absurd by parliament. and you may read for an insight for yourself here a href="http://www.atokd.com/MessageBoard.aspx"LINK/a.br /br /for all the bullying me and my year mates suffered at school, it was very instructive that by our final year when we had had the opportunity to also met our our fair share of bullying to our juniors then the authorities decided to implement a number of reforms. so our wings were 'severely' clipped. but i'm sure we turned as one of the very best leaders of the school if not the best! we adopted different and more humane approaches to finding solutions to insubordination and they worked. we did not have to resort to infringing on human rights! (aside isolated cases lol).br /br /so pal, i wonder why would our parliamentarians be more concerned about doing the absurd than passing legislation that would deal with our many societal ills. This is the 21st century and our parliamentarians are more concerned about demanding respect than working to earn respect. such things pal, make me angry!br /br /but i'm not angry!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-1213087210445222967?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  crises: talking obama in ghana

   » ‎ novisi
  yes pal,br /and i think it's just ok and not ok! (be assured of deliberate use of words here!)br /br /Obama? he sure is a star! some Americans call him a rock star! whatever! he sure got the crowd following him just like Michael Jackson! what is left is for Obama to start having a skin collour change (he's almost there by nature and now's time for the artificial too!) and maybe get plastic for a nose and chin! MJ sure did have a hold on the world. POP star!! yeah!br /br /so i have nothing special about the flimsy fantasies pal. Obama is human like me and that is fine! i remember the very day he announced his interest in the Democratic ticket and i stuck with him straight on having already warmed up to him while the background checking on his potential was ongoing! so i supported Obama against Hillary and the rest of the pack. and i remember my delight when i stayed up to the suffer of heavy-eyes in my hotel room that fateful morning in Rabat after watching and listening to Obama 'accepting' the Democratic ticket!br /br /i'm drawn naturally to this man pal. i'm because he marks such a sharp difference from what Bush the bush gave this world. i share a lot in common in terms of thought with this man! and i respect him more because he is ready to admit that all the ideas he espouses are very much age old (check his inaugural speech). that we must not embark on 'foolish' (my word) wars like in Iraq! that the US must engage rest of the world in talks to reduce threats to life (nukes babe!). such things pal, such things make me respect this man! and he even inspired me to write a href="http://novisi.blogspot.com/2008/08/flame.html"FLAME!/abr /br /but this same man has shit up his head. he says for example that Americans must not apologize for their way of life (check his inaugural speech still). and he reaffirms such 'block-headed' support for Israel against the Arabs which i believe is nothing but stupidity no matter how it may be a good game plan to win support from the Jews! how could Americans claim not to care a hoot about their way of life! IS THAT NOT EVEN A CONTRADICTION FOR ALL THE CHAMPIONING OF GREEN ENERGY BY OBAMA HIMSELF??? how could they when the amount of fuel they alone consume is a big telling on global warming! how about the savagery of the slave-trade of yesteryear from which they benefitted greatly. even the Whitehouse where Obama has his office was built by slaves with hard labour??? br /br /i did not surpport Obama because i believe in the Democratic Party. no pal! i did not support Obama because he's (half) black or because the wife is fully black. no pal, i'm no racist! the collour of the skin don't mean the collour of the shit! right???br /br /surely i wonder how many people would have been so gay (ass loving really!) if a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwame_Kilpatrick"Kwame Kilpatrick/a was the prez of US visiting Ghana instead of Obama for all his ills????? and so therein lies the hard truth and irony!!! i would have probably held up a placard to demonstrate against him. for all the foolishness of our authorities i feel sad i wasn't able to do a thing like that against Bush when he came to town! that man deserves worse than shoes! a nuke up his bottom would not even suffice!br /br /so Obama is president of the USA now and he has come to Ghana! he's delivered his much awaited speech and what a brilliant speech for for saying the west is not to blame for Zimbabwe's woes! surely part of the blame goes there especially UK.br /br /meanwhile, there's been a lot of nonsensical talk. fantasizing o babe! some say he should have visited Kenya first (much like Mills visited his home region to be crowned 'okunyi'). others say he should have visited Nigeria first!br /br /and still some like a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8138641.stm"Elizabeth Ohene/a would spew more shit by saying it is Ghana he is visiting first in Africa (does she know the map at all???) because the Egypt trip does not count; because he did not sleep over (but Clinton did not sleep in Ghana when he visited and it was a visit) and that he did not go there with his family! such shit! and such insult to the Egyptians and all who understand that Egypt must not be maligned foolishly. Egypt is a founding member of the OAU (now AU)!!! and there are moslems all over African and in Ghana too! so what's this former minister's point there??? she deserves a whip on the bare... this instant!!!br /br /and just listen to these ones too a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200907/32533.asp"talk uselessly about Obama's colour here:/abr /br /a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200907/32460.asp"KUFUOR speaks but does not seem (yes seem!) to know his own nature here:/abr /listen to the audio but too bad pal; if you don't understand Twi. it was better for our past president to use that medium of communication else he would have rendered to us such things as: 'upholded' instead of 'upheld'. the grammer and diction sometimes is better than mine! other times too, hmmmmmmmm! so you too learn some Twi!br /br /my dear Kufused sure knows how to bid time to release whatever bothers him for attention (Obama is in town and world media is reporting live and dead)! so Kufuor comes to ask us "what is per diem?" claiming his pay for the first 4yrs of his terms was so small compared to other presidents in Africa. he even says we should consider his law training and that even if he was so dumb he would have earned a lot lot more in the law profession! br /br /Pal, theres no excuse to be made for any dick, tom or harry who chooses to serve the public! definitely we did not go begging anyone to lead us! Kufuor chose to elect himself for us to elect him as president! we did not force him. so why would Kufuor be telling us about the inadequacy of the Osu Castle to house his 'multitude' of grand-children and for which reason he deemed it unfit for his housing and therefore chose to live in his own house! why didn't he leave us alone to go looking after his grand-kids instead of hanging in there wasting our time??? br /br /at what cost was it to the taxpayer??? he should do the calculation and tell us all including himself! he should tell us how much fuel he consumed by just traveling from his home to the office and back!and this man tells us that it's not in his nature to be ostentatious??? what was he doing with motorcade after leaving office??? what was he doing with presidential vehicles after leaving office???? what in God's name did he buy those gold chains he awarded himself for??? Kufour obviously, either does not know his own nature or is further Kufused or that he does not know me! which one pal? br /br /i want Kufuor to speak more but he does not! that's ok! but he must not try to water down his failures! those were gigantic failures indeed on his part! damn! the man lost a great opportunity to raise the bar and that's what i'm talking about! so then why won't Mill's and his Mutanka be thinking they can give us a 'chichinga' Muntaka clearance and we should be ok. nonsense! Mills better buck up now and verily verily right now!br /br /so Obama has spoken to Africa! all the call for democracy is right! but i'm not one of those who think Obama must come from America before we learn to uphold democracy! Bostwana is not doing bad. SA is not bad and so Tanzania. we just need now push the rest in same/similar direction! i believe DR. Congo admidst all the chaos have the potential to rise and so too Ivory Coast and Kenya and Zimbabwe and Nigeria for Yar Adua's enthronement and Somalia and all!!!br /br /so Obama would continue to have the crowds following him but Africa must rise now and now or else a great thunder and lightening and earthquake and tsunami and hurricane and typhoon must all combine and descend on the land!!!br /br /Africa!!!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-395413284233215003?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  Neda, a thought

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,br /today, i pause!br /br /i've really been enjoying the bombastic rhetoric between the US (Bush especially) and the countries like Iran! for me it all shows how stupid human beings can be! it's sickening to still be bedeviled with threats of war, removal of teeth with a pair of pliers and chopping off of heads with hack-saws! and then what?br /br /the world has come a damn long way! from the days of BC to AD. from the days of Solomon and his countless concubines to this present day King Nswati and his annual parade of virgins! from the days when almost the whole of Europe was at war because of Religious doctrines - beliefs???? (Catholic vs Protestants) to these present day's Rwanda and Bosnia!br /br /we are even told that we are to blame for the death of one Jesus! JeeeeeeeeeeeSUS!br /br /and yet, we have come from civilizations which even today we hardly can fathom how developed man could be if only our energies are harnessed properly! I talk about the Pyramids of Cairo's Giza! and man is wonderful indeed!br /br /So today i share a thought for a href="http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2009/06/the-world-mourns-neda.html?cid=6a00d8341c4df253ef0115714a613c970b#comment-form"Neda/a, and i share a thought for Neda not because of the post-humorous publicity she's suddenly gained but because she represents a case in history just as millions and millions of others who died for making their voices know! br /br /and at this juncture, for a juxtapose; aah! I REMEMBER!!! i remember Galileo Galilei who could not stand his ground for the fear of his life. i don't fault him, for my grandmother used to tell me that "to listen is better than to sacrifice"! whatever that means! peace on that man too, but surely a thought for Neda!!!br /br /Iran must rise!br /Iran must kick those religious foolish heads out of town now! and if it means many more Neda's will die, so be it! why sacrifice a whole nation of 'varied and different' (yeah, that! those two words put together must carry something) people of different perceptions of this same world.br /br /who at all is believing that he or she must control the spirit of men and women lest they face the whip????????? which whip Pal?????? i don't know even!br /br /but a people will revolt, and it's just a matter of time! Pal, the nonsense is just too much and my head reels. oh no! another 'bloody' revolution before the human beings will learn sense? let it come!!!br /br /Iran must rise, a people must survive!br /br /br /Neda!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-7011394391345269864?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  killing the system

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal, br /it's easy, get a Nuclear or an A bomb! else get a gun, or a club even!br /just start attacking everything in sight! something would be eliminated! or at least, something would give! eeeezy?br /br /how about building the system instead, taking a second or two to think through an idea, pause even, assemble needed materials and tools that would get you through! actually start the work! and there you are! eeeeezy?br /br /so today, i had an intercourse with a chemistry lecturer! first i was with two other guys! and Chem lecturer is wondering how come the two guys are on industrial attachment from KNUST (first year)! he thinks they should have waited till 3rd year before making any such 'move'!br /br /so i tell Chem man, "look"! (lol, well, i didn't start like that, cos i'm supposed to respect the elderly and sure the harmless word look would have been in contrast to the spirit of respect.... and how we fix ourselves pal. me i'd make my kids tell me "Look" someday soon!br /br /but i told Chem man; that it was a good thing for these young men to start seeing some things early! Chem man says noooooooooooooo! "you see, i'm speaking as someone who has been in the teaching field for over 20yrs and i know when a student begins to grasp a subject. by the 3rd yr you could be sure that when you make them go out they won't go and blow-up a manufacturing plant"br /br /GadDamIt...!!! i said to him, but in my head!br /br /I said, "you see, i believe you should review your policy so that students start getting earlier exposure to industry".br /br /"you don't understand. Chem man says.

GadDamIt...! br /br /I told Chem man: "no, i'm not surprised! and i'm not surprised because really, the computer is just a tool like the farmer would have a hoe and that the student could just learn this quickly. no big deal there!"br /br /Chem man is more stubborn than i am maybe! he disagrees forcefully! he insists it is shameful while i was left to wonder where all the shame could be coming from! but i did not want to start chasing any shadows of shame now! so i let him continue with all those self confusing tales as i see it. it was time to live sadly!br /br /Chem man was still talking 'round and round the about' as i made for the door. i only listened and laughed some off. and when we finally said Good bye, Chem man would just let me go like that. he tells me: "you have to change your thinking".br /br /but pal, in all honesty, This Chem man is not the only notorious one! me too i'm notorious! so i declare i won't change my mind on this matter! br /br /why should i when the world is moving on faster and faster! when little kids are playing with technology elsewhere and coming out with ideas that a lot of folks on this side buy and either keep in their rooms as a sign of wealth or carry around as fashion!br /br /i can't be tied down with such dogmas about letting someone grow up before being given the opportunity to learn! learn pal. just opportunity to learn, not lead!! but following instructions and learning and 'doing' some under adequate supervision! just this! and i'm being told that one must wait for some yrs before??????????br /br /Pal, you may choose to help build the system or just start knocking it all down, little by little!br /br /Regards!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-5038034022266412693?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  jokers

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,br /i'm slowly picking up the rhythm of life back in my bones and muscles. 'sickness is a pain' indeed.br /br /so what is our government up to on education? they call up a bunch of folks and say let's deliberate on whether secondary education should span 3 or 4 yrs? br /br /meanwhile Pal, there's a joint right on the labadi beach road called jokers! i've always wondered why that name cos none of my visits to the place resulted in me witnessing any sit-down comedy! forget what they call 'stand-up' comedy! is that the same as what is called 'gye na hor gyi?' br /br /trust me Pal, this place called Jokers is too serious a place. my last visit there was all about the enjoyment of an atmosphere of bizi looking folks. bizi about nothing amidst a flood or call gals that breeze you by with perfume that could stain your nasal passage! breathe pal!br /br /so our government and some folks who call themselves stake holders think that the solution to the myriad of problems engulfing our educational system lies in playing out 'lottery' with the numbers 3 and or 4??? JOKERS indeed!br /br /what breaks the bile in me is what some want us to swallow down as fallen standards of education. and they claim the old system that made you spend a whooping 7 yrs on secondary plus some 10yrs on primary education was far better than the current system. how foolish could a man or woman be in conjuring up such a mindset that is as baseless as the word!br /br /folks have forgotten that the population of human beings have increased with time first of all. JOKERS!br /br /i was privileged enough to sit in same class at the university with some of the products of the old system and God knows that all the many years they had to spend before undergrad did them no magic! so why all the joke???br /br /me say pal, we should have a long term plan for secondary education and it does not matter the number of years really so far as the content could be delivered with enough comfort! so let's say let's plan for the next 50yrs!br /br /ACTION PLAN:br /1. revert current number of years to 3 'as it was in the beginning'. This is so because nothing significant has changed to take care of a 4yr programme.br /br /2. massive infrastructural and human (teachers) advancement should be made for the next 5 years bearing in mind that we would get back to running a 4yr max programme. meanwhile the educationists should do proper review of the curricula.br /br /3. plan for a 4yr programme that would make room for anyone who feels up to it to write the needed exams after 3yrs (even 2yrs is not bad) to jump to university! there's no need to wait if one is up to speed enough!br /br /and we must plan for a four year programme because the system must be flexible for the masses to be able to have enough time to obtain secondary education which must sooner than later be a must in this country!br /br /meanwhile Pal, there are a lot more jokes with the educational system. there is that shit thing called 'school feeding programme'. look let whoever get rid of that thing. the money should rather be channeled into providing science resource centers for the schools. br /br /There's another one that is being made noise of lately again called 'Baah Wiredu's one-laptop per child' programme and i wonder when will the jokes come down to the minimum! whoever thinks it's the way to go is serioulsly joking! if they could provide one laptop per child, why not identify the tertiary institutions and help out students pursuing computer science programes??? just another joke. someone is going to end up littering this nation with junks as computers for kids. let that programme be scrapped. and if the whole idea is to push for the memory of one-time-man Baah Wiredu, then someone must think better! he himself was a part of this junk and it's time to rethink for the best!br /br /yes Pal!br /i'm back and alive!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-7552142725636054680?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  some many things

  Pal dear,br /i just rechecked the 'insignificant' physical space that i occupy compared to all the mind-blowing vastness that exists in this universe! and still there are ongoing discoveries that tell that we actually underestimate the measure of the space that we perceive! true science is the only religion! (the false type of science is the case of HIV-AIDs for example. no sense there! and WMDs too!)br /br /so there are too many things to talk about!br /br /sakawa:br /Down town in man-made Ghana there's a lot of talk about a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200905/30475.asp"SAKAWA!/a and i wonder what more could be irrelevant in as much as it is relevant to attract too much attention from our leaders and police who should rather be focused on tackling more practical issues such as robbery, thievery by leaders etc. Suddenly, it seems everyone has a 'sakawa' story to tell no matter how childish or 'toli' it it may sound!br /br /and then the youth are the ones to get the focus of the triviality with all sorts of claims! folks are too easily taken in by all manner of spiritual tales to only make them look helpless! how sad! where is the 'wake-up' bell???br /--------br / br /Middle ground:br /last time i scream YES when Obama told that story in his speech to the a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/05/16/obama.notre.dame/index.html?iref=newssearch"Notre Dame/a folks about the Doctor who emailed him about the 'abortion' issue during his campaign. YES, that's my kind of leadership! (not the person Obama so much, but the principle of reaching the middle ground when it matters). but of course same man Obama could not stand the pressure on his own 'case 5 balls' when pressed about the 'photos' (his explanation me believe is neither here nor there. it's not up to him to decide human feelings or reactions).br /br /Obama again and they say he's visiting Ghana. no big deal! when i asked myself why not Kenya for a first Official visit, my 'heartless' head told me it was all about strategy! and i believe it's a plus for his 'professional' outlook a href="http://mayasearth.blogspot.com/2009/05/unbelievable.html"like Maya responds it here!/a any other country in the 'black' of Africa would score him that point. so a die is cast maybe and it falls on Ghana. no big deal however a jamboree the streets of Accra would turn! br /br /my expectation? i look forward to hearing what he would say! it better be good stuff! and i hope it would be nothing like telling us that the US citizens cannot be apologetic to anyone about the way they live like he did say in his inaugural speech! that is crap and almost Bush's 'bull' (and i'm no tax collector; therefore unlike Obama i'm 'morally' free to make a 'caricature' of him) if we consider the enormity of the troubles that America has served the world. surely there are issues like global warming and the contributions they have made! all the fuel they keep consuming!!! else why is he pushing for renewable energy anyway! i want some more sense!br /br /sexy dream!br /Doesn't sex represent God, Pal??? has the world already undergone the sex-revolution??? why is nudity and sex such a no-go! some say don't let the child see nudity! some say don't let the child see sexual intercourse! else they would be corrupted! but don't the children always see. and even if they don't see, who says they don't know? and what does that akan adage say about letting the child know God! doesn't it say the child learns on his own??? i started becoming aware (knowledge) about sex on my own from my 'environment' (which environment is this same world) as early as about the age of 3 or so as i can remember! so when would the world just accept that sex is part of humanity so much that it is no more a corrupter than food we eat hungrily or gluttony! br /br /Football!br /now comes the showdown! come Wednesday i want Barca to win over ManU and i want Eto'o to score! there must come a retaliation for last season. Pal, i was supporting Inter all the way this term till ManU crashed them! hard luck to Chelsea but this year i was so against them i almost 'cried' till Iniesta's goal made Didier Drogba go mad. yeah the ref was bad alright but what other way could a man be teased?br /br /but Jose Mourihno is teasing me more! i love this man. he speaks both sense and nonsense 'beautifully'! i supported Chelsea last term because of him and now i'm supporting Inter because of him. but Barca seduces me big time! Mourinho says the final would be decided on pens! he predicted rightly that his former team Porto would be knocked out by ManU but did not attempt same for his own team! now i wish Mourinho hadn't just said that because i dread pens for Barca!

  leaving-woman

  pal,br /br /the rains came down a bit heavy for a short while and ended up in soft showers. i thought it was just ending so i dashed out to 'Western Union Money Transfer' office. i did enjoy the drops of rain on my skin as i made my way to the place. it was nice!br /br /so i approach the office and i realised the place was rather familiarly dark (and dark places that should rather be lit have become familiar these days in Ghana like always thanks to ECG!) with all the people present on their feet. two women seemed focused on anything but their job behind the counter.br /br /before the counter but only about 3 steps away were two others. one, a gentleman in blue jeans who leaned in one corner as if he waited for just the last drop of rain to make his way out! the other was a lady who rather wore a desperate face and i could have just taken cue from her like those unspoken notices and just make my way back. nobody talked. the body languages were very clear. but i got closer to the only computer on the counter and i did not hear it hum! enough warning now??? br /br /well, where i came from there was enough electrical power, so why not ask questions. i proceed without prompting!br /br /looking from one face to another, i put the question to one of the ladies behind the counter. span style="font-weight:bold;""Madam, are you closed?"/span and i did it with a mischievous smile because i knew it was just some minutes past 4pm! Madam is busy packing somethings into her bag so i repeat the question. span style="font-weight:bold;""Madam, have you closed for the day???"/span br /br /Now Madam looks me up in the face but turns her eyes back to her bag before answering. and as she raised her head i saw the evidence of her private and likely nocturnal encounters with a male counterpart. and the thing about the general attitude of pregnant women which i don't buy came to mind! br /br /"There's no light." Madam said. ok i had already seen the signs alright! but that was no answer to my question. so i quickly modify (not change!) the question. "When do you close???" Madam woman looks at me again and i 'jolt' within with a feeling of a smile broadening on my face because i was glad that she was engaging with a fellow man in private. that's always a good affair. br /br /and Madam answered: span style="font-weight:bold;""I'm leaving, there's no light."br //spanbr /"oh ok!" i said. and my mischief jumps to the fore of me with my smile still widening. "so you are leaving but you have not closed, okayeeeeeee!" the eeeeeee sound makes a piecing one! and don't i just annoy now??? she's looking at me now and i'm looking back at her and i'm smiling. she didn't smile some but she didn't frown either.br /br /Madam shoots back: span style="font-weight:bold;""it's 4.30, i close at 4.30, i'm leaving!"/spanbr /br /and i dared stepped on the toe of the other lady behind the counter with that uninvited statement of mine! and she would probably have given me a slap if she had the effrontery! the best way to defend is to attack they say right??? this lady might have taken this tactical saying rather extra seriously!br /br /so she comes right at me with a fierce force spewing out words like they just did not weight just the way i love drama: span style="font-weight:bold;""gentleman, we have closed! we don't have light so we can't work. if we don't have light we don't work. how do you expect us to work if we don't have light???"/spanbr /br /she took my attention like i had no choice! i gave it (yes it!) to her but i did not add the smile for strategic reasons! i listened to her.br /br /now i don't know whether she wanted me to become her interviewee??? but before i could decide whether to answer or what answer at all to give she threw more verbal rockets!br /br /span style="font-weight:bold;""do you understand???"/span she demanded!br /br /and i looked at no one but this second lady behind the counter! and aaaaahhhh, now my time to 'talk som' (more)!br /br /span style="font-weight:bold;""oh, i actually asked specific questions for which i got specific answers and i'm ok with the answers. so ehmmm, thank you very much madammmmmmmmmmmm!!!" /spanbr /br /i threw that at her with an unending mmmmmmmmm sound that i'm sure will echo and reecho in her ears for her listening pleasure!!!br /br /now i turned my attention to my more accommodating and dear pregnant and 'leaving-woman'. i bowed my regards. she acknowledged and i left feeling all the joy in me! walking back in the rain; the showers increased and i couldn't help but just spread out my arms into wings to savour the the drenching that came as i made my way back!br /br /pal, i just enjoy pulling out the nonsense in folks! makes the world even more beautiful!!!br /br /have a nice weekend!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-8276159521335327622?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

Two clear days before the sound of the 100days bell the man Mills calls up journalists to put before them his account.br /br /i'm one of those who believe that the Mills admin is slow! and i hold that belief so dear to my heart amidst all the claim that both the Rawlings and Kufuor first terms have been beaten to it by the Mills' 100days record-breaking speed.br /br /I believe that Mills is slow not because he has not done some of the things he promised or not but simply because i look generally at the needs of this country amidst all the potentials available even with all the hurdles of the bogus Ghana constitution and i come to the conclusion that Mills is slow! so i would not bother like some are busy with themselves comparing Mills to Kufuor or Rawlings! i don't see the sense in that apart from forming a rank pattern maybe!br /br /now, i don't know whoever came up with this idea of assessing a presidency term in 100days with funfair countdown??? who was that? i don't even want to know him or her anyway! i think it's full of fantasy! br /br /EVERY PRESIDENT OR LEADER MUST BE CHECK AND AND RECHECK AND SCRUTINIZED AND EVALUATED AND ALL FROM THE VERY MINUTE HE/SHE ASSUMES OFFICE TO THE MINUTE HE/SHE LEAVES OFFICE. and in this case it's a 4yr long haul.br /br /now, Mills scores himself high for 100 days when we are yet to reach 100days. i'm not sure i'd score him that high. in fact i won't. meanwhile i don't know who asked Mills and Co to promise us that they would clean up the city in 100days. On that score (and i include Zoomlion who also jumped at the idea), they get A BIG ZERO! br /br /i'm no fun of promises like i keep saying but i knew this was going to fail and i just told myself: "let me wait and see" and i've seen. Mills is now saying it's an ongoing process. fair deal. who doesn't know that??? it would always be an ongoing process. or would it ever end??? sanitation is a big issue and i wonder why Mills would play promise with it. ACCRA IS SMELLING LIKE ROT and Mills scores ZERO from me on his own promise. period!br /br /so much for 100days!br /br /br /anyway pal,br /it was a long holiday. what is Easter about again?br /cheers!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-5265689377735725458?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  Pal dear,br /br /a friend of mine once asked me if i ever wondered 'how and how come' i'm understood when i attempt to communicate with others??? and on the other hand whether i have ever wondered 'how and how come' i understand others when they attempt to communicate with me???br /br /i'm yet to find any COMPLETE answer!br /br /but whilst waiting for that super-natural revelation, i'm asking questions.br /br /questions pal, and i don't really mind what type or what time. it may be as dumb as "what is that?" (in which case the 'that' is not defined) or as precise as what is a condom used for??? just questions; else the picture might just be too murky!br /br /br /br /peace on Earth!!!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-1537651867076087777?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  raw in the mix

How much could man achieve without basics really??? a foundation first before the roofing right?br /br /so man JJ Rawlings the raw one, has been out again lambasting man JEA Mills and some other folks for all that HE CARES ABOUT! that’s all. I have my own problems with man JJ Rawlings as per how some of his core revolutionary stances seem to have suffered terrible kicks in the groin in relation to his level of personal wealth (be it legitimate money or stolen money – I don’t care, a revolutionary must always be a revolutionary (i didn't say pauper!)and on that score man Rawlings has a lot of questions from me to answer! and i salute Che Guevara of revolutionary memory!). br /br /but… but… but… he has not gone to steal anyone’s goat, neither has he even attempted to kick out man JEA Mills out of executive power bestowed on him by the people of Ghana. in other words let’s look carefully!br /br /ok, there’s a man called Kwesi Pratt who i believe I share a lot in terms of free thinking with (he’s demonstrated to me enough). He is a confessed socialist but i’m a ‘non-labelist’ (the irony is that the ‘non-labelist’ too is a label but I go with the obvious ‘forced’ meaning of this label). Pratt does not support coup in any form but I believe that the dynamism of man makes it such that in holding true to natural justice it would be JUST to kick out with brooms or sticks or even AK47; a man like Mills should he turn out to be A MONSTER! so we have clear differences. I see myself as just a human being. unfinished! br /br /so, a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200904/28324.asp"man Pratt takes on man Rawlings/a for taking on man JEA Mills. the summary (and i think i did some summary is school- hehe!) of man Pratt’s reaction is simply that enough is enough because man Rawlings should just learn to live like a former president! and the question from me and myself is: 'is there a sworn code of ethics for former presidents by which they must live?' and the clear answer is NO! and sure I would be one of those who would oppose any such nonsense with all my might should there come the attempt just as I’m totally against any kind of control as per what is put out in the PRIVATE MEDIA under any form of so called broadcasting law or shit! what law at all for free media that’s supposed to be free? who is afraid of what he she has done or not done???br /br /so i disagree with any such like man Pratt that man Rawlings of raw tendencies must not be talking waa waaa waaaa! let the man talk for the sake of nothing at all. in any case is it the imagination of anyone that they should be the ones to determine who should speak and who should not speak and on what issues? br /br /Man Pratt asks what kind of man could Rawlings be to quarrel with people even in his own party and yet it's well known that man Pratt himself quarreled with man Nduom of his CPP. so what volcano there apart from inconsistency! A political party is a public institution and must not be treated like a cult with secrete hushes if you ask me!br /br /you may rightly (cannot be wrong as a fundamental right!) argue against or for what man Rawlings may say but why? let him speak again and again should he choose to. he may even contradict himself as per his record and so on… and I don’t agree with all the things man Rawlings is saying but surely I believe there are some things with which the Mills man is slowing too much for comfort; for example what is delaying Mills from visiting Bawku himself and Tamale to initiate with all the spirit of the leadership position he occupies to seek to bring peace to the totality of Ghana! did he not instead go to receive an award of some sort of an 'okunyi' from his own people in Fanteland at our cost??? br /br /meanwhile even the promise (and I’m no fun of promises!) to rid Accra of dirt in his 1st 100 days (and I wonder why all the cult about 100 days!) has seen little effort. Nima is still stinking bad. The road near the prime Labadi beach hotel smells foul (and in fact all along the beach stretch of Ghana stinks). and there’s just so much plastic all around us! so why not scream for a faster rate of action no matter how slow man Rawlings himself might have been during his own office terms. Rawlings talks about mediocre ministers and i agree with him no matter how many mediocre were in his own government! just basic truths!br /br /Man Rawlings says there are characters around Mills and yes I believe there are characters around Mills for sure! Koku Anyidoho is one I believe needs some lessons in leadership before opening his mouth waa waaa waaa! so what is fundamentally an error in the non specific but obviously correct statements by man Rawlings! some like a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200903/28143.asp"Alhaji/a have chosen to assign names in interpreting what Rawlings means and I think that could only amount overly worrying of themselves since the man did not mention any names! speculation can only serve as a guide, not too much more if you want to hold a man! right or wrong!br /br /what is even fascinating (but not really) is the fact that the some opposition which not too long ago made a funfair of letting us know that their opinion of Mills’ “hit the ground running" was rather a crawl with jerked motion (which i share to some extent) are also hitting hard on Rawlings for coming out loud on Mills. they say he has coup mentality! (what is coup mentality? - seems somebody is always dreaming phrases that only lead to absurdities). br /br /And funny still, even Ayariga (pal, there’s just little sense going on) too who speaks for Mills comes out to say that Rawlings was a trained soldier who per his training does not take his time while Mills is a trained law man who would take his time! What a FALLACY OF MONUMENTAL PROPORTIONS. what sense is there? that there’s no soldier who would perhaps even act slower than Mills or what? or there's no lawyer who would act faster or anyhow more than Rawlings or what??? what shear nonsense pal!!!br /br /some opposition says that all the outburst of Rawlings proves them right that Mills meant Rawlings when he declared that he was the only one president. an unneeded declaration at that by Mills. the opposition’s conclusion can only amount to forcing a situation however right by ‘correct’ guess they might be (and same applies to Ayariga and Anyidoho too for all their ‘forced’ interpretations of the ‘one-president declaration by Mills that he mean Nana and the opposition). simply the president did not mention any name. the name(s) is/are well stuck in his head!!!br /br /again, some say Rawlings is not being fair to Mills! that is fine and I can’t argue too much against that opinion. and many of those also believe Mills lied to them about fuel prices and me too think they are not being fair to man Mills (so we all have opinions!). But my take really is that so what? shouldn’t we all (including all the thieves and social misfits) have a duty to keep our leadership in check for the sake of man and woman! Isn’t that a more noble call than giving out awards with ‘okunyi’ titles to people who take up the duty to lead us??? I’m definitely NOT going to lick no one’s boots and least leadership!!! Pal, I leave you to make your choice too!br /br /i love reading this man Abugri too and more a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/features/200904/28311.asp"satirical tickles here/a but i still disagree that dignity comes with whispers or hush-hush only!br /br /let man Rawlings talk and let everyone else too talk. and then let Mills decide whilst there is still talk anyway! we did not make him president with the promise that we would seize talking about leadership! did we?br /br /but please pal, there’s just too much to gain from free speech than pretend to be the only ‘wise’ man in the midst of all the ‘unwise’!br /br /and may the forces just continue to be with us!br /br /cheerio!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-7043389904140732023?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  yeah pal,br /br /there are those who think Ghana's democracy is young... but i don't! br /br /democracy is about ideas! you don't need years to grow them! ideas and principles are so old they are perhaps older than man and woman! so why all the reference to time when there's no need for that? why should one wait for 'how long' to realise that it's plain thievery to take resources that belong to all the people for oneself without the people's consent???br /br /so i bow for PC Appiah Ofori of the NPP who says that the former Speaker of Parliament should be prosecuted for taking the peoples property! ok wait, my opinion: according to facts so far, some of the things we are told falls within his 'ex-gratia' as per legally or constitutionally! no problem however incorrect me thinks. i'm simply refering to the generator and the others that we are told he took away which clearly are signs (and is just said signs) of thievery! i could have just said it's just thievery without the signs!well...br /br /so yes i agree, this speaker of former times must be prosecuted! and if you think i'm joking just a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe/03/30/jackie.smith.husband.pornography/index.html"read this!/a and let no one tell me Ghana's democracy is yet to grow!br /br /yet a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200903/28120.asp"he dares/a to say he would pay... ok. so what must be done? take away the items which are not due him first, second, check them and let him pay for any damages. third, prosecute him for attempting to steal and stealing! he may just be proved innocent anyway! just prosecute!br /br /meanwhile, Bagbin of the NDC is a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200903/28134.asp"not serious here...!br //abr /br /and i salute Alhaji Baturi of the NDC for telling it to Mills like it should be told him! a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200903/28143.asp"read here.../a( and i'm not concerned 'too much' about their party matter with Rawlings and all that)... i only think that everyone should have the freedom to speak his/her mind no matter how foolish though!br /br /a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200903/28141.asp"and aside/a, i think i've talked about it before but seriously i think folks should get serious and scrap this thing called sch. feeding programme that is not sustainable... donor funds haaaaba!br /br /pal, i'm at my nonsense best and you stay blessed!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-6767150498639183644?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  tribalistic me!

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,br /there's a lot of tribal talk in the land territory called Ghana now! br /br /a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200903/27981.asp"here/a, a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200903/27987.asp"here/a, a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200903/28027.asp"here/a etc... and i mention it as if it has not been the case for all the existence of man and woman on earth! so is the story of Adam and Eve so true??? or is the Bible just sharing a "toli" (fairytale?)???br /br /suddenly it's as if people are just rediscovering where they ever belonged in the first place! could we have chosen where to belong before birth???br /br /i have no problem with any 'tribesman' who talks tribe! at all!!! tribes certainly are identifiable groupings that could yield development! a gun is not necessarily a bad thing see? i gun can kill a man and a gun can be used to hunt down meat or beast! see? don't we cherish our school associations? don't black men see themselves as one 'against' white men? tribes certainly would have common concerns!br /br /I AM NO BELIEVER IN LOYALTY TO ANY FORM OF ASSOCIATION! not old school, not the pussy cat lovers association, not my tribe, not the pan-african call! i believe in personal independence more! my mum could only be my biological mum! my believes and actions must certainly be based on my person! I'M JUST SO DIS-LOYAL to a sharp ERECTION and that's just why i cannot belong to a political party!br /br /i accept that we all come from somewhere? where i don't know really! but we sure do have our differences! and so what??? even though i have to to believe that i need not make a big deal out of my roots i would accept and respect anyone who sings about his/her heritage or tribe or father once that song does not say others are less human!!! i might even dance to the tune if it tickles me enough and i don't even need to understand! and i'm not only talking about songs literally!br /br /i belong to a group of Ewe people called Gbi out of the many different Ewe groups like Anlo, Ve, Tongu (the north and south of which is noted for magical electoral numbers) etc... and yet you have to divide the Gbi people into two- Gbi-nyigbe (Peki area) and Gbi-dzigbe (Hohoe area) and further divide and divide and divide and.... before you could locate my biological roots with some (yes some!) precision! i can promise you it won't be an easy task if you attempt it pal!br /br /i remember whilst i was growing up, the folks from my village held a meeting at my uncles place and were debating whether to use their welfare contributions to buy guns to defend themselves just in case a neighbouring village decided to attack them over LAND! and both villages are Gbi. br /br /i remember having serious physical fights with my one and only blood brother (same mother, same father!) when we were kids! we stopped fighting a long time ago! i remember too that i decided not to speak with a cousin of mine and this lasted over 10 years without our parents really knowing what was happening! that was when we were still barely teens!br /br /i remember that like the Ewe boy that i am i attended school in an Akan area and yes i did experience some discrimination by some mates of mine but even then i started realizing that it was all born out of whatever misconceptions!br /br /i remember too that not too long ago, an uncle of mine warned my brother vehemently never to go in for an Akan woman for a wife else he would never attend his marriage engagements! how stupid i thought of him 'fondly'!br /br /yet i have family relations who are married to Akans. and i might just land an akan babe myself! who knows and sure i would make love to her massive with all the senses within me! i'd cherish her too! i mean 'odo asem'...'odo tintan' (love web)!br /br /so is it not POSSIBLE that the kids of Obama might just grow up to think that they have absolutely nothing in common with folks in Kenya! and so what? however sadly so me wonder!br /br /now i've grown and i ask myself: what at all hasn't happened before on this earth??? why are people making so much capital out of where they belong or come from???br /br /recently i heard an uncle of mine who happens to be an osofo of the rank of a Bishop in the Catholic 'of Roman' setup coming out to say that a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200903/27719.asp"Ewes and Akans are great friends/a and i wondered what fantasy this man could be dreaming up??? i screamed that is not true!! unless he's seeing something in the 'osofo-realm' that obviously would escape me for all my non-religious commitments!!! br /br /imagine pal, would you call EVEN America and Isreal GREAT friends??? they may be GREAT allies for whatever common interest but friendship that is great...??? would you say??? so what's this take on Ewes and Akans that only amounts to my osofo-uncle tickling himself and laughing with 'pastoral fantacy'???br /br /I CANNOT and would not SAY AKANS AND EWES ARE ENEMIES BUT TO SAY THAT THEY ARE GREAT (and GREAT is really great a word) IS ONLY FAR ENOUGH FROM THE REALITY!!!br /br /why won't people face the bare facts and just be sincere instead of trying to massage some fantacy bones (i love this word fantacy now!)!br /br /KUFUOR'S OFFICE:br /so one man at the centre of all the controversy about tribal land and all happens to be Kufuor my dear! br /br /what should simply be a procedural matter has turned out to have set the stage for tribal punches! no big deal me think!br /br /but what are the bare facts? Kufuor needs office and must be given office by state right? so let it be done and simple as that!br /br /aparently Kufuor took office for himself before asking for it? that's an interesting one! some say the government should have ensured that it never came into the public domain and they claim to be expects but me i think they are jokers cos what won't come into the public domain no matter how??? even Mills Castle prayer camp comes into the public domain! Kufuor's Gizzelle Yaji came into the public domain! so what?br /br /so there's banter between Mills' admin and opposition and one PV is supposed to tell something which is not clear enough and a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200903/27933.asp"National Security/a wades in to say they are taking charge! i pause: pal, i am no fun of no power play i keep saying! the last time Kufuor's francis Poku was being 'debriefed' under-house arrest i saw foolishness! now too there appear to be foolishness on same part of so called national security! what is so special about a house in the middle of the capital to warrant National security making mountains out of it??? someone is smoking weed!!!br /br /so some Ga youth meanwhile claim they would eject Kufuor cos they feel cheated over their own land! Ga youth like any other youth of Ghana has right to definitely speak on Ghana matters because they are Ga youth and because they are Ghana youth for that matter authomatically! BUT i pause again pal: i agree with any Ga man/woman who thinks that Ga LAND is being giving out for all sorts of things to their disadvantage! i wonder how many other places in this same country could land be treated like in Ga! i wonder if even my village would allow! but it is true that under the provisions of Ghana constitution it would be illegal for Ga youth to attempt ejecting Kufuor FORCEFULLY from the office! br /br /meanwhile what is refreshing for me is the fact that Kufuor has a PRIVATE HOUSE on Ga land and yet Ga youth have not said they would eject him from there too! his son too bought a hotel on Ga land! so what? so i love to put this matter in real perspective! we must separate no matter how 'tribalistically' cloudy what is legal from what is not under our bogus constitution! what the Ga youth have complained about about Kufuor is the office! not his private house!br /br /how different is the Ga youth tribal outcry from the Ashantis who are calling Kufuor to come home? Ga say go away because you don't belong with us...Ashanti say come home because you belong with us! what is the difference really??? but i've hardly heard folks call the the cry of the Ashanti group tribalistic! both cases are based on belonging pal!br /br /i am still an Ewe and I wouldn't go calling Kufuor to vacate a government building in my hometown just because i'm an Ewe! I will do so if i feel he MUST simply because i'm a human being like him and like Osama Bin Ladin who must be treated fairly and rightly! But Ga youth chooseS to say because they are Gas and that is their right and so be it! there's nothing wrong with it no matter how IRRELEVANT I find that posturing! beyond that is the issue of legality and proper procedure and that is what we should concern ourselves with more!br /br /so for a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200903/28027.asp"patriots of Western region/a to also rise though there's nothing wrong still in representing one's tribe or region is really funny! funny because their argument is really cheap! they claim Kufuor is being 'banished' which is far from the truth! remember pal, that Ga youth have not told Kufuor not to ever step on Ga land again! they have not said so! Kufuor still lives in his house which is on Ga land! and the Werstern Region rep says “If other people think others cannot own properties on their lands because they are not indigenes,..." span style="font-weight:bold;"and that is only a stomach directional reply to Gas pal! because pal, i'm just in the process of acquiring a portion of Ga land under my name and i'm no indigene!/spanbr /br /if Kufuor has done wrong let's all deal with him! simple as that! and if anyone chooses to play up his tribe let the rest be tolerant of it! simple! it's no big deal!br /br /and we all know that the Ga people themselves sell their lands like there's no tomorrow! so why wont people address the core of issues instead of playing like spoilt kids!!! i wonder still!br /br /pal, this issue has been gnawing at me for fat too long and i would fill the whole of blogger's space i guess if i continue! i've always wanted to write something about tribalism anyway and i just got the jolt and my thanks goes out to all who are making nonsense out of it for whatever interests in that regard!br /br /i must just end this some where even if abrupt (really abrupt??? hehehehe)!br /br /stay well pal!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-1276260880799392076?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

THE PEOPLES POWER must be upheld with sanctity and it must be seen to be working! our no! the institutions must work. The presidency must work and it must not matter who is occupying the position!br /br /so let opposition decide to jump around if they want to! let them dance 'gborhey' or mapouka or let them fly to rousing welcomes and there must be enough room to allow all these within the law!

  manifesto - president novisi

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal dear,br /br /br /today I write to tell you that I’d take the following actions if i were elected the president of Ghana. Enjoy reading but most importantly, VOTE FOR ME:br /br /1. first and foremost i’d be very populist in my leadership to the annoyance of all who have self-inflicted problems with dizzying understanding of the true meaning of populism!br /br /2. i’d scream out loud and clear enough that as president i seek no popularity that is NOT backed by conscience no matter how visible my person goes public! br /br /in that regard no one shall be allowed to use his/her public office position and public money to advertise through the media congratulatory messages to me or drink-up parties in my name and on my behalf! the case here is public money!br /br /there shall be no billboards or statues announcing me on the scene after assumption of office! not even a privately funded one shall be entertained!br /br /i shall be called simply by my name novisi without the need for any fantacy titles such as His Most Excellency or Sir of any knighthood of too special a group of people of what only God knows!br /br /similarly all members of parliament shall be refered to by their names or by the constituency they represent. no more blindfolding titles of Honourble!br /br /i shall deem it proper to visit the markets unannounced like any other person and feel free to move about when time and space allows!br /br /br /3. i’d not blind my conscience with my membership of any association be it family (nuclear/extended), alumni, wee-smokers, wakye-eaters, pussy-cat lovers, Barcelona FC. fans or whatever. in other words, I’d be fair to all as much as humanly possible! my mum can only remain my biological mother, beyond that we are all individual human beings.br /br /4. following from article (2) therefore, there shall be the conscious effort aimed with good precision at dealing a most deadly blow directly to the groins of all forms of discrimination! for example, rastamen who qualify for jobs must not be denied opportunities because of the hair they wear! neither should there be the need to state one’s religion or tribe on any form as a requirement for admissions into schools or employments or the nightclubs or the morgues.br /br /5. very crucially I’d let it be known that I seek us all to appreciate clearly and to always remember that Ghana as a country like any other out there on this earth is an ‘artificial’ creation by men (and women). in other words, Ghana was not created by God. Ghana is manmade! br /br /Thus we are just different people who have only chosen to come together as a country and so our differences should be celebrated as such. No man or woman is more human than another! no one is special; not the priest in the cathedral, not the thief on the street, not the representative of the gods in the shrine, not the drug-addict in the slam, not the president! hence the sovereignty of the individual would be respected with utmost regard under the constitution.br /br /6. i’d let it be appreciated that there shall be no fetish about being patriotic! and that it should just be a natural course to serve humanity with each one of us playing his/her part! meaning that if we don’t encourage the promotion of any sense of supremacy of one tribe or race over another why should we come together as one people of a country and deem it appropriate to encourage citizens to regard our country as supreme to any other? br /br /the absurdity therein must be made so clear for all to realize that our continuous existence on this earth is linked directly or indirectly with whatever sustainable measures are taken in other countries on this same earth! therefore if there’s a kid in Afghanistan who’s only getting opium instead of food we must care and if there’s a male child in the USA who’s only getting GM food to make him grow breast like a woman we owe it a duty as human beings to show concern! we must be worried indeed if the kids in Somalia are taking up guns and gunning down other human beings instead of having the opportunity to attend school to learn one plus one equal to two (1 + 1 = 2)!br /br /7. corruption shall be fought head-on with great impact starting with the political leadership and made to trickle down to every nook and cranny! the fish, when it starts to rot starts from the head, not the tail. simple and that complex all combined!br /br /8. i’d seek to let all understand that the secular nature of this ‘synthetic’ country called Ghana as defined by the constitution must be upheld with all sanctity and therefore no one religion shall be allowed to hijack state sponsored institutions and functions. there shall therefore be no room to tolerate any religious practice in government institutions by way of prayers or chants or dance! religion shall remain a private activity or mutually public as per consent of all (and the word is ‘all’ as in all) stakeholders like sexual intercourse! There shall be no rape!br /br /9. i’d push for the legislation of a ceiling on the total number of ministers for any executive term! This number must not exceed 40. And also some ministries must be fixed so that no one can just change them or realign them depending on how severe his scrotum or breast may itch! any need to change must be determined in parliament by SECRETE BALLOT which could only be valid by the presence of two-thirds of all parliamentarians.br /br /there would be no ‘fantacy’ ministers like minister for a region or a senior/junior minister or a minister for children and women! there would be no minister for adults and men! and there would be no minister without a suitcase or portmanteau; or no sorry, portfolio! no, no, no!br /br /10. i’d seek to appeal to the consciences of the masses so that appropriate action is taken to legislate the abolishing of the chieftain system as an embodiment of authority. don’t worry over this pal, i already know it would be very controversial. but the bare facts must be faced:br /br /i’d seek to let all appreciate the fact that the chieftain system is no unique one to Ghanaians or Africans for that matter and that all over the world human beings have had chiefs and queens as and when they so desired and that for our secular democratic establishment to thrive we must have no ‘pockets’ of authority placed in the hands of only a selected few by virtue of any so designated by man for man ‘special’ reproductive organs powered by so called royal blood!br /br /Altenatively, anything close to the continuous existence of the chieftain system must be guided by the following options:br /br /a) any kind of chief or king or odikro or asafoatse shall only exist as a ‘place-holder’ of a ceremonial position. thus no chief/king shall have any executive power! absolutely none!br /b) any such chief or paramount chief as allowed by 8(a) shall be elected by open, free and fair democratic elections. This is to ensure participation by all and the people may choose to carry their chief in a palanquin or make him walk barefoot! no problem at all!br /c) as the constitution stipulates already, there shall be no kingdom in Ghana and hence no king or super king! br /br /11. There shall be uninhibited freedom of speech. anyone and everyone shall have the right to say or write or sing or signal whatever by way of communication through whatever media be it classroom teaching black/white boards with chalk or charcoal or by email. the enjoyment of this right shall NOT be subject to any pre-condition. br /br /in like manner everyone else, apart from political public office holders shall reserve the right to challenge, if offended, anything said by anyone in the law courts and punitive measures therein sought shall not equal those for criminal offenses. hence everyone shall be responsible for anything he or she says or writes!br /br /in that regard, the president shall course appropriate action by legislation to institute a national day of insults directed at leadership as a whole and the president in particular specially to HAMMER HOME the point of allowing freedom of expression of the word verbally or by written text or whatever! br /br /this day shall NOT be a holiday and it shall pass only as a special marking of liberation of the word in spirit and form in addition to the everyday opportunity to express oneself at will that shall exist anyway! br /br /political leadership and for that matter anybody occupying a position of trust shall not enjoy the right to sue for any offense to him/her by any such expression of words as speech or text or song pertaining to his work in anyway while in office or out of office due to privileges made available by the taxpayer and for the oaths taken to serve the people knowing that actions and inactions of leadership impact on the lives of all citizens however remotely. this therefore shall be an accepted hazard of the job by law!br /br /it must be noted that this exercise seeks to rubbish the claim by some religious warnings like the bible which admonishes that the tongue should not be used anyhow or else it can kill. we must understand that we cannot hold the tongue responsible for any wrong done by any other part of our bodies. br /br /for example, if your tongue screams “kill” and you go ahead to kill someone with your hand, why should we blame the tongue for the killing instead of the hand that killed. in like manner one cannot and should not be held responsible for murder committed by his/her mother just because they are related by blood.br /br /all private media houses shall have (not given but just have) automatically the right to direct their own broadcasts as they deem fit under the constitution. br /br /there shall be no state direction of editorial policy whatsoever! to ensure the erasing of any such semblance the constitution shall be amended appropriately to take away the power of the president to appoint two persons to the National Media Commission. that provision is absolutely useless and foolish indeed.br / br /all state media houses however shall be guided by clear regulations to ensure political and other social balances in their broadcast!br /br /*for the avoidance of any doubt the exercise of this freedom of expression by way of words shall be recognized as only a fundamental expression and shall NOT include all other forms of human expression such as throwing one’s hand to hit another woman’s bottom. It shall NOT cover physical actions like movement of body parts. period! in other words a child may play with the mother’s breast but definitely not the fathers scrotum! (the mother and breast here refer to leadership and whatever issues one may have against it while ‘the father and the scrotum’ is represented here by private person and any falsehood against him/her)! hence so responsibility for issues raised against private persons on the part of he/she who is communicating whatever issue shall not be in doubt.br /br /12. i shall seek to abolish the school feeding programme and rather ensure that parents have opportunities to earn handsome and beautiful incomes to take care of their kids. if schools should engage in feeding children then parents shall pay for the service directly to ensure that there is accountability from the schools and that the foot served is proper so that parents shall be encouraged to inspect the food served!br /br /13. i’d realign the national youth employment programme under the national service scheme with proper resourcing of the national service scheme to come up with old and innovative ways of making sure the youth are not allowed to waste away! br /br /everyone must be involved in doing something meaningful for development. and in that regard, I’d course it to be properly communicated by my own self without a special assistance or a speaking-person for me that that is what the economy is about and not abstract and sometimes twisted figures of inflation or gdp or indices generated out of balloon bellies. the economy is all about the little that everyone does. simple as that!br /br /14. there shall be no ex-gratia! every government employee shall have proper salary and placement on the pension scheme! i’d institute moves to ensure that aside needed privileges, political office holders do not earn as income anything that does not fit into the general economic situation so that what the political office holder earns would not be too different by a measure of not more than double from what the teacher in Asawase earns! i repeat; there shall be no ex-gratia! br /br /upon my completion of service to you i shall be the one who would thank you dearly for the opportunity granted to have the honour of serving you! it shall not be the other way round! and Jesus died on the cross but not in vain!br /br /15. i shall pursue with vigor and alacrity the unification of Africa at least economically in an effort to seek economic independence for the African continent! and in that regard, there must be a conscious effort to raise the stakes so very high in order to do away with any traits of the likes of idi Amin Dada, Mobuto Sese Seko, Empireror Bokassa Charles Tailor, Samuel Doe, Eyadema, Abacha, etc, etc, etc!br /br /br /br /br /epilogue:br /i shall take other step as appropriate to ensure the people whose tax and in whose name i seek aid as need get their monies worth!br /br /should i be elected president by you pal, this definitely shall be the covenant i shall sign with you and proceed to execute and i shall judge my performance by same principles herein.br /br /meanwhile, in private life (before and hopefully after i become president) i shall reserve the private right as a human being to judge the performance of others who get elected into office to hold in trust the collective purse and other resources of the populace.div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-5468472390680172141?l=novisi.blogspot.com' alt='' //div

  hello pal,br /br /div style="text-align: justify;"there's just a lot high pitch screeming about a latest phrase in town thanks to one pastor Otabil: a href="http://topics.myjoyonline.com/news/200903/26958.asp"Generational Thinking!/a haaaaaaaba!br /br /the funny thing for me in there is the fact that some make it look like it's some Eureka principle just brought from some super brains! this is so basic a fact that it stares us all in the face everyday and i would for nonsense sake call for the prosecution of any man be he/she a pastor or fetish or imam who chooses to negatively affect the lives of more pastors and fetishes and imams who are yet to be born at any time capital T.br /br /For example all those who enjoyed the sweet fruits of independent Ghana so called and yet did not see reason to sustain let alone improve on our resources like education for me must all be lined up for questions!!!br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Non-Generational Thinking Mumuni?/spanbr /Now pal, I just want to blast away this guy called Mumuni of the rank of Alhaji who now is our Minister of Affairs of Foreign Dimensions However Defined! he must realise first of all that the ministry is not for his nose! neither is it for his leg nor his high powered thurbo-charged jumbo genital organ! so he must be prepared to to give us a break.br /br /As it stands no criminality has been found against this man! so it's just fair that man Mumuni would want to stand on the grounds of innocent until proven guilty. fair deal. but why??? is he the only Ghanaian who could head our foreign ministry at this point in time.br /br /Pal, it must be said that it's a very funny situation in that Mumuni man may choose to stay on while fighting his case alright and there would be nothing legally wrong. But it would be also right that man Mumuni would just step aside say some 5kM away from the ministry just to allow non-detraction to government business. which must a man choose??? tough?br /br /it must be painful indeed for any man or woman to be saddled with whatever allegation upon his head or some other part of his/her body so that if affects whatever position he chooses to serve in. be it a family or clan head or keeper of a people's cowry collections!br /br /I was one of those who called for the honourable resignation of Anani the then health minister who went representing all Ghanaians at an HIV/AIDs conference and decided to sex some gal without wearing a condom which resulted in a child on our behalf and on his own behalf. I would still call for that man to resign anyday no matter how he's out of government now! not just that there were allegations of some money going to some wrong places from the right place! Anani still owes us just a little respect for insulting that he did it to our benefit!br /br /and so now mumuni and the charge is about money! ok. let mumuni be proven right or wrong but for the sake of peace in Bawku and Afghanistan no matter how far fetched... let mumuni too give us the peace of mind we deserve! the government of Ghana's business must go on and he must just allow that! so for that reason i say get the fuck out of the place man mumuni!! well if you don't want the fuck then you can get the sex out of there! his personal posturing is not helping matters! first he says he a href="http://topics.myjoyonline.com/politics/200903/27027.asp"won't resign.../a then he says a href="http://topics.myjoyonline.com/politics/200903/27051.asp"condition.../abr /br /pal, i wouldn't have too much problems with this man Mumuni but for his own utterances and for the fact that he's been involved in constitutional controversies of needless proportions! i've not chaged mumuni for any wrong doing but for the sake of sanity let this man make way! and all those tribalistic robots calling for his stay should keep tribe out of the matter. what's all this association foolishnesh???br //divbr /peace be on earth!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-4114749699605950364?l=novisi.blogspot.com'//div

  div style="text-align: justify;"Pal,br /br /this has been one of my busiest weeks with all the happenings around me and you and everyone else!br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"ministerial positions:/spanbr /First pal, and just one of the reasons why i think our constitution is bogus- it's about time that we as a body of one people within and without the 'artifial' borders labeled Ghana identify and fix some more ministerial positions which no 'funny' president can 'too-easily' change without seeking aproval from parliament for eg. and there must be a maximum number of ministeries for any executive! any need to exceed that maximum number could be decided in parliament too!br /br /meanwhile:br /Mills is appointing designees, parliament is vetting and passing back nominees to Mills to swear in ministers of importance and non-importance!br /br /the following are wasteful (we are just about 20 mil pple!!!):br /minister for informationbr /minister for women and children affairsbr /minister for culture and chieftiancybr /minister at the presidency (in charge of whatever the presidency may tell him!)br /some regional minister - 10 or them! but we don't need them at all. DCEs/MCEs are enough! and let's elect those too!br /br /the following are beautiful duplications:br /1. minister for science and technology 2. minister for communication (ain't communication largely about technology???).br /br /and all the above would have deputy ministers??? So let Mills stop making noise that he has reduced the number of ministers. Talking about noise pal, (and i digress with glee) i believe beating one's chest and claiming to have fulfilled a promise to reduce the number of ministries by only four with all the above mentioned in place is what should be labeled noise and not public outcry against a href="http://topics.myjoyonline.com/politics/200902/26528.asp"ex-gratia!!!/abr /br /a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.atokd.com/blogContent.aspx?blogID=114"Zeeeeeeee 4 Zita/abr /she has a very beautiful daughter she says pal, but she's too much!!! too much! just too much!!! and you know pal, 'too much of everything is bad' they say! so she is just bad! now i wonder what at all Atta the Mills man has seen in this lady that someone like me can't see! there's a public outcry that this lady should be dropped! so what is Mills waiting for??? what sheer display of folly-play of honouring a promise!br /br /and pal, i'm particularly worried that we must take care on demanding promises else we would only end-up with cases like Zita! what we ought to do is identify clearly what our needs are and demand those whether promised or not!!! we can't afford to be playing on our lives with promises made by any president see! well, as for me i'm not going to demand from any president who promises to cut off my throat to honour his promise else that would amount to me playing 'buuuulu'!!br /br /a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://topics.myjoyonline.com/politics/200902/26528.asp"jerked-ejaculation!/abr /ah pal, my dear Kufuor the kufused has spoken on the matter of his own act for which i called him out to speak and not only speak but condemn his own actions wiht me looking at him without blinking an eye! but alas pal. that man has spoken and he did not only speak but he made noise! just noise! my kufused seems to only have PREMIUM for 'thank-you'! clearly he want's us to thank him for making him a leader... so he wants us to thank all our leaders! as for me i owe no leader thanks!! no leader man! i may choose to thank you, but why? must it be demanded??? and must it be demanded in such monetery terms??? someone is having 'jerked-orgasm' pal.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"racial-defect - just wondering!!!/spanbr /pal, i'm a proud man of the race called 'black' however that came to be! someone else may be called white or blue or green or yellow! and this has been with us since since since! so why play all foolish and act that the other man or woman of the another race is less human??? even animals like cats and goats and sheep and donkeys and hippopotamus are loved and petted by us same human beings!br /br /but well, so we have racial discrimination alright! so what??? i don't bother about it? i don't care if a 'violet' woman thinks that a black man like me can't have a prick let alone brains or pains!!! so why do some get too worked up about racial abuse? these mostly is not uncommon in the sports world. with football in particular there have been countless of monkey callse! i remember my boy Eto'o of barca fame suffering loads of racial abuse especially last season! and many a black player have suffered same or worse across the world! and of course all these are coming after the kinds of giant steps of folks like Rosa Parks of the American civil rights movement!br /br /a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/africa/7892347.stm"and so goes the case of Ghana star John Mensah!!!/abr /br /so racial abuse is a big issue!!! sure it is! but i'm just wondering... that in this day and age, if i'm called a monkey for being 'black' (i'm yet to see the part of my skin that is black still), i wouldn't have to bother at all... in fact i might just smile at the one calling me fish! and i've been called worst things already in my 'minute' life!!! why should i bother that a man chooses to spend his energy calling me names just because of the collour of my skin!!! it's a different matter if a man strikes my knees for being 'his' black-chimp!!!br /br /and pal, i'm not saying racial name calling is 'just' not a big issue! i'm just wondering!!!br /br /have a nice weekend!br //divdiv class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-3340698065066966816?l=novisi.blogspot.com'//div

  pal,br /br /i'm off to see the most talked about 'romantic nonsense'! i love stage act more than movies! you need to have something ex-tra before i can sit to watch a movie with you... else give me a copy of the movie and give me some months to work myself into the 'mood' of watching it see?br /br /so what?br /so there's a lot of talk about 'ex-the-gratia' or what is supposed to be a parting gift for MPs and Presidents from hence with retrospective effect to all living past presidents! haaaaba!br /br /ok so what? so a certain Chinery Hesse committee was set up by Kufuor which to all intents and purposes has only proven how we can (if we allow) be preyed upon by thieves in the name of the law in broad day light under the cover of the sun and with the moon waiting to show!br /br /so what words can describe the recommendations of the Hesse committee's report? me think the following more are even too beautiful:br /Lunacybr /Foolishnessbr /abordamsem.... aaaa-sssss-eeeee-mmmm! asem.br /nkwasiasembr /insanity (this word sounds too sweet it's dangerous!)br /inaneness!br /buuulu sane! (Ga: foolishness)!br /idiotic (i love this word man!)br /shit!!!br /br /so why? our leaders are not prepared to offer public service as a voluntary calling but want us to believe that we rather owe them too much for because they themselves but not us asked them to put themselves up for us to entrust them with our collective authority and purse! how not foolish pal!br /br /so my proposal:br /For Presidents:br /1. No landed properties... i mean no houses whatsoever... take away from RAWlings the raw one immediately the two government bangalows he's using... let him get his own house!br /br /2. No cars! yes or NO, no cars! all the shit talk about recieving two visitors at the same time is Bush's bull... what if he recieves twenty visitors? absolutly no cars and no cars... if cars are needed and the state is involved then state protocol can always make those available as and when needed. finish!br /br /3. No Seed money for no project or library or whatever shit! if any president want's to run any project he should go raise his own funds... we may choose to give them tax-exempt... that's about how far we might wish to be foolish... no more...br /br /4. Security is vital... personally i would reject any security following my every move should i become ex-president cos man, i love LIFE-clandestine... and afterall what should i be afraid off if even someone wrongly wishes to strike my head... because afterall could i ever count the number of lives i might have negatively affected as per my actions or inactions... man is human everyday! so well... let there be security alright!br /br /5. No motor-cades... for what? nonsense!br /br /6. No travel expenses... if after taking more than 3 thousand dollars a month for 8yrs at most and 4 yrs at least (which money in any case is only left to acrue interest or some treasury bill because the dictates of the office provides even condoms and female condoms for free in the name of presidential comfort!) and one cannot afford to travel on his/her personal purse then that man or woman must be an idiot indeed!br /br /7. pay either pension or salary.... not both... both is foolish and idiotic combined... no sense!br /br /our leaders must be ready to offer voluntary service or they must stay their private lives!br /br /simple as that pal...div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-7084398057683033992?l=novisi.blogspot.com'//div

  Pal mine you!br /br /the Daily Graphic again ooooooooo! why o why? the last time they were goofing bad about Atta Mills' choice of VP candidate! and this time...br /br /a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/200902/26096.asp"span class="topItem-4"strongNPP functionaries share affordable houses/strong/span/abr /br /and that is the headline by our state sponsored newspaper! our taxes man! i believe whoever is the editor and manager and whoever else is in there in any position of authority must be called to book.br /br /why should a state newspaper which is mandated to report fairly without bias put out such headline. whatever be the interest of whichever interested party in this matter who finds him/herself at a position of decision on headlines at the state paper, This headline which clearly maligns one political party is totally uncalled for! it is foolish to say the least if not stupid. shit!!!br /br /why so some people think that they must use our tax money for foolish agenda is something i don't accept and pal you must not accept it no matter which party or fan club you belong to. This is a matter which clearly must be removed from the political party npp by a state institution. No concert here pal... i just don't get the logic pal. why must we by all means see ourselves always and on any matter as either npp or cpp or ndc or shit???br /br /well pal, i know a lot of people are jumping and screaming about that npp folks have taken the houses meant for those who can afford (affordable houses right?) but be it as it may pal, i don't support any such thievery but matters must be put into the right contexts for 'nonsense' sake!br /br /it's foolish how our state institutions position themselves under leaderships that only seek their self interests obviously under whatever political party finds itself in the leadership of government! this is shit and this shit must be stopped! Atta Mills and his Asaga (who has asaga) must all come out to condemn this folly! so too must whoever else while the substance of the matter is dealt with!!!br /br /Pal, if you don't understand what i mean, then what i'm say is that if this was a report from a href="http://dailyguideghana.com/newd/"Daily Guide/a or any other private entity, then i wouldn't have been bothered. but for a state newspaper...! i beg to differ in all sweet folly!!!br /br /cheers pal!!!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-2951430360456599085?l=novisi.blogspot.com'//div

Quaye the fake "down trodden of the people"... so let the prayer sections presented under only the islamic and christian faith seize now and let hard work begin towards reconciliation... call it populist like Malik the Kweku ONE!! that chap is just a disgrace to the high calls of journalism! This chap Kweku Baako is telling us today that Asaga the Moses who is only seeing canaan is just a victim of a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Populism#Fascism_and_populism"'populism'/a and that what he did was no big deal!! hahahaha! let me laugh small pal...br /br /(by the way, has Kweku the ONE Malik who put his reputation publicly on line and swore that the then Kufuor led government was going to get us that "barbering shop" loan reclaimed his reputation after the fiasco yet???)... sorry for the diversion pal!!br /br /when loads are complaining about the CLEAR INSULT camouflaged as ex-gratia (the infamous!) for Kufuor and any others like him... Malik the ONE, Kweku instead of addressing the nonsense "therein herein forthwith" is rather busy about wanting us all to know who and who have enjoyed a so called "first-phase"!!! from the camp of the ndc and therefore (almost as if) we should stop complaining cos the complains amount to nothing according to him than 'populist'!! and i wonder if this guy even understands that word 'populist'??? he seems to have developed some funky love for this one word like i love the word 'shit' so much that he leaves me wondering "na which one be his own"???br /br /span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"Clearly it appears Kweku Baaku is 'out of touch'... Pal, whether JJ the RAW(lings) or some other ndc MPs have enjoyed with 'alacrity' the 'booty' gotten them generously by Kufuor my dear Kufused can never make the 'shear stealing of our resources in the name of the law therefore right' or that; that perhaps Kweku wants some others to admit connivance and therefore you /spanspan style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"'you-thief-me, i-thief-you' and man and woman should go have orgasm. matter close???! /spanbr /br /if this is the kind of standard Kweku wants then that can only be stupid of him! how foolish!!! so then why is he Malik the ONE Kweku out there making all the noise about Rawlings anyway... since he now seems nothing wrong with SHARING in wrong doing!!! Pal, if i were Kweku the one, i would be calling that that Chinery Hesse and group be put before trial for causing us financial loss willfully with glee... yes, they caused the loss with glee...br /br /why would anybody want to 'compensate' another for being president...??? "compensate?" pal, that is the word the Hesse committee chooses to use for thier looting of our resources under the guise of the law!!! somebody would say they are clever... me i would say they are thieves!br /br /so Malik should get this thing straight and stop fooling about... well he may just choose to continue fooling about... it's a choice and i'd reserve the choice also to describe his folly as i may please amidst all the human love i have for him...br /br /So Moses the Asaga should also stop calling for a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200902/26054.asp"mercy../aa href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200902/26054.asp"./a he must by now be apologising to us all for 'misbehaving'... he's certainly a bad example by this conduct... and not too long ago he was the one beating his own wife anyway...! where are the femisnists against whom i stand myself for being feminists and not humanists???br /br /so pal, Asaga has done wrong (which wrong is the unilateral decision without recourse to appropriate authority, unless otherwise revealed) and let whoever took part in the wrong be held accountable... i wont congratulate or thank Mills for this action of his because it's far about time that we demand responsibility and accountability... i only hope that the saga of Asaga is allowed to permeate all sectors of our governance... span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"let Mills know that we won't be fooled if that's what he's up to... and let the likes of Kweku who are too happy to 'share' in wrong doing stop fooling.../spanbr /br /pal, i'm with you in prayers...!br /br /cheers!/divdiv class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-6513894798680436513?l=novisi.blogspot.com'//div

  div style="text-align: justify;"Pal,br /i have the feeling this january of 2009 is the month in which i've written most since embarking on this blog journey with 'sincere-folly' secured under my ampit... but i'm not bothered... so a second blog today...br /br /meanwhile pal, i've heard one of the sweetest news making the rounds in Ghana and wherever else on this same earth!!br /br /Kweku Baaku (Baaku in Twi means 'one' or???) aslo known NOW as Malik is charging that he would let Konadu the beloved wife of the one RAW(lings) JJ of former times meet her at CHRAJ... and i think it's one of the most beautiful things ever to happen to this artificial creation by man called Ghana! (a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200901/25743.asp"read here/a)br /br /why not??? pal, i wish one day my wife would continue to look as elegant and smart and sweet and 'witchy-in-bed' (wiches charm right?...charming...!) long into her old age like Mrs. RAW(lings) but man, I have always thought that Konadu if for nothing at all messed up big time once the term 'conflict of interest' makes meaning at all.br /br /How can you a wife of a so called Junior Jesus 'almost' (if not exactly) of an "all-dirt-cleaning-revolutionary" era bring yourself to such state of affairs where you end up buying state property claiming that it was put on tender??? tender my... well, one-half-of-my ass...! (what other word pal???)...br /br /and i don't care pal if the constitution of Ghana even allows such transactions... i'm talking "advantage and fair-play" here for all who come preaching righeousness into my non-isreali-automatic-supporting-obama EARS... and woman Konadu can never free herself from my charge... she's guilty of that... and for that she must be exposed and for that i'm in full support of Kweku ONE (Baaku) the Malik... and really this is some action of mine that is really rare these days because i've come to see that Kweku the Malik ONE has become nonsensically partisan it's almost an insult to ones like me who saw him a hero against the days of RAWlings... but everyman surely has a sweet side see pal...br /br /however beautiful pal, whenever i reassure myself a href="http://www.atokd.com/blogContent.aspx?blogID=88"with stuff like this/a then i can't help but admit that the likes of ONE Kweku are just a "HUGE-gigantic BIGGGGGGG" shame to the high calls of journalism... but that's besides the point here...br /br /when Kufuor also of the former times decided to let Konadu go "just like that" without any reasons to us tax-payers, i got mad at Kufuor. meanwhile, Konadu Nana was all over the place talking yabri-yabri, yibri-yab... i did not see why our tax should be used by him to score cheap political point in the name of a so called reconcilliation effort after all the commission for reconcilliation or whatever they called it... how do people understand reconcilliation pal at all??? is it about dishing out our resources on our behalf to percieved or 'manufactured' enemies for free??? Last time i checked too, Kufuor said the bogus awards he dished out were for reconcilliation... o m g!!!br /br /so it was under Kufuor that court action was initiated against Konadu alright on our behalf... sweet one, but pal, to be frank the play out of the executive in this particular case leaves much to be desired... i'm very convinced that other than seeking justice on behalf of the people, some few thought either they could score cheap/expensive political capital out of it or that they were just out there to play foolish...ignoring the fact that our taxes were at stake...br /br /The whole Konadu-Caridem saga is bunch of shit that i want clarified and if she's found guilty she must pay for it... i have already found her guilty in my own court of law for 'conflict of interest'!!! i don't have the luxury of time to waste pal... because i felt this way before finding out that even Clinton could not enjoy pay which she took part in passing for her current office under Obama (and that is even a written regulation... mine is what you call 'whatever' be it that nothing in our constitution or laws debars such clear unfair advantage-taking...br /br /therefore i say to Malik the ONE, never let up man, let's fight this to the full... and i only hope that you Kweku would use logic instead of foolish personal dislike/hatred...br /br /may sanity prevail pal.../divdiv class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/562766231881590428-2129411647489950335?l=novisi.blogspot.com'//div

Secondly, i (and the other i) believe that man Tsikata did not get a fair trial under all the so called rule of law which unfairness i believe was juicily demonstrated to a 'soprano-crescendo' on the day of his sentencing to a five year jail term by the trial judge Justice Henrietta Abban in all holiness...br /br /After all that 'gymnastic' display by Justice Abban and subsequent bias pronouncements to paint man Tsatsu as deserving of his jailing by the 'president' Kufuor himself on public/party platforms came the beautiful dance calling for a href="http://www.thestatesmanonline.com/pages/news_detail.php?section=1amp;newsid=7054"more years for man Tsatsu the Tsikata!!!/abr /br /span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"awakening.../spanbr /i note the limitations of man and woman with all respect to those who have come before us on this same earth... but i also note the knowledge man and woman have come to aquire since since since...br /br /so what pal???br /so Tsatsu the Tsikata gets bail alright and comes out and he's talking sense and he's talking nonsense too man! man Tsatsu says he's going (as he's already began since going to jail) to seek for just for not only himself but for the many many many many (many times many!) folks who have found themselves in jail unjustly with some being on just an un-ending journey of remand...br /br /so what again pal? so does man Tsikata want me to believe that had he not been to jail he wouldn't have known that such were the foolish conditions of our judicial/penal system??? please spare us this one... well i hope that is not what you mean... but that is what you said... that it was while you were there that you realised all these things and so you have deemed it a duty upon your very self to fight for more justice...br /br /and i say to man Tsatsu... that realisation is a good one for which he could count on a boy like me but the mentality being displayed by him to the effect that one only had to be faced with a particular situation such as this before realising what corrective measures to take for me is a slap on the face and i wish to condemn such an attack on my sensibility with all the my MIGHT...br /br /i find it rather intriguing that man Tsatsu who is tauted so much to be a legal luminary of excellence with almost a needle-edge precission span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"(and again pal, just look again at the photo of the ant above and don't mind my spin on a man i consider personally very very modest by the measure of many worthy scales... still, just focus on the core!)/span and as one who has been in the legal profession for so long to now come telling me this story... where has he been all these while??? even me, who is so faraway from the legal/penal system by profession have good knowledge that there is a lot of rot in there... and i never need to be jailed to realise this thing... it's just all over the world... it's right there before us all... so where has man Tsatsu been all these while...???br /br /pal, if you wonder what i'm talking about... then my simple case is that if Tsatsu had been really really concerned about the human rights of folks... and if he knows that it's possible to get the wrong man or woman in jail (which knowledge shouldn't be far fetched for a trained lawyer like him), then shouldn't he have been concerned long long ago to at least do a researh to find out what the situation really was if even he could not imagine it being true??? so that it need not take him to be jailed before coming to realise this thing and to now claim to be waging a fight which a boy like me is ever ready to fight along with him to secure the human rights of folks???br /br /so when would we awake to the 'bare faces' of basic principles????br /br /and i make herein a reference to Obama's inaugural speech and i do so not because i think he's the inventer of these principles but just because he too seems to be championing them with an admission by himself that these principles have been around for so long...they are not new... and i quote:br /span style="line-height: 150%;font-size:100%;" ”/spanspan style="line-height: 150%;font-size:100%;" /spanspan style="font-size:100%;"em style=""span style="color: rgb(31, 73, 125); line-height: 150%;"Our challenges may be new.

  mess

  Pal dearest dear,br /br /all around me is a load of mess!br /br /div style="text-align: justify;"does Ghana have a leader (president?) at all??? what's all the mess going on about cars, about toilets, about dismissals, about shootings and damn about any shit...br /br /we have been told Fiifi (i like the sound of that- fiiiiifii) has decided to setup office at the Osu Castle for a temporal post.... still in transition i guess he would like us to believe... but see pal, i'm not one to be decieved... i mean, Fiifi the Mills old man got sworn into office by some tailored oaths, (which oath i don't believe he swore truly anyway) on the 7th Jan. That is a long time ago for one who promises to hit the ground running to asert himself (and i mean ASERT HIMSELF)... but not to continue to play it like he himself is still in transition!br /br /LET MILLS COME OUT CLEAR ON ALL THE FOOLISHNESS GOING ON AND CALL FOR ORDER HIMSELF!!! THAT IS DEFINITELY ONE WAY TO DEMONSTRATE LEADERSHIP... and let him not just sit on his butts in his 'presidential chair' only to be sending spokespersons after spokespersons to tell us (what???).br /br /Mills is not in transition and that must be made loud and clear to him no matter how his God-given eyes might be failing him! Osu Castle i believe is not a bad idea... there's nothing wrong in making it an office... span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"in fact i'm of the view that those who claim that the Osu Castle only represents slavery might just as well tell us all to vamoose from the whole land cos slavery was carried out in the whole land man!/span my point is; can we just be humble enough to accept the failures of man and woman and then learn from these so that our forward march is made more meaningful???? So let the Jubilee house be finished first... no problem... but ASERT YOUR LEADERSHIP NOW!!!br /br /Mill's says we should expect his cabinet by 31st Jan. I'm not sure if that's when he expects that all the due processes would have been completed... but if it's just to name the whos them Mills man must know that no matter what pressures he might want us to imagine for him... that is just too long a time to just name (if that's just it-- to name)! So until then he and his vice are the only substantive people with executive power! therefore he and his vice must be calling the shots but not some acting folks under whatever guise! LOOK, BE SERIOUS!!!br /br /and also let Fiifi move out of his spintex-road residence to a relocation at the Osu Castle or at least close by enough to save the poor folks of the his nuisance of causing trafic jam just to allow his priviledged passaged! I hope Fiifi gets the message clear that Ghanaians don't have to wait for the date of the next elections to effect a sack of the NDC if need be!!! clearly the constitution makes it know that 4 years could (and the word is could) be too long and perhaps too costly...br /br /we (including myself and others) are watching... as for me i'm demanding change!!

  just place that fon call

   » ‎ novisi
  massa, you no go call Atta or whot??? why you dey che like so??? why you vex or whot???br /br /Pal, that's the question i would put to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo should he dare grant me audience!br /br /I don't seem to understand this man who claims to believe in Ghana so much that he makes it look like he's the one and only believer now!br /br /a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/elections/200901/24607.asp"Finally he's made public a statement to congratulate Mills as the president elect./a But my question to the man is: have you placed that BEAUTIFUL PHONE CALL to your old fellow Mills??? we are in an era where it's almost becoming a part of the process to place a call to your competitor in a presidential race to just say the word 'congratulations'! if for nothing at all it demonstrate that you whole heatedly respects the decision of the people!!!br /br /but instead of Nana to place that call which in any case the public would not be partake in directly to just show a demonstration of going a 'little further' he is still grumbling about criminalities which according to him occurred in the volta region!br /br /Does Nana think a soul like me is stupid or what? why is he pretending to be championing the cause of all when obviously he's only interested in solving problems that would be to his benefit! he talks about the volta region as if it is some devils place now! that is sad to say the least! and let me tell him that that kind of attitude would only antagonise the people of the region and push the further away from him in particular and his party!br /br /Pal, you would think that the race is over and therefore i should be calm....as if i'm not already, but this man Nana is just acting funny! he is pretending that he never heard of any attacks on anybody in any part of the country apart from the volta region during the 2008 elections! That is deceptive!br /br /but pal, you see, i'm proud of one thing...that is that Nana has proven me right that he can hardly be a unifier! he almost speaks as if unity can be achieved in the law courts! how naive if not pretentious of this man!!! and he says he will be back in 4yrs??? i urge all to see the selfishness of this man and never give him the chance to be our leader unless he stops this kind of pretentions and rather demontrates that he would reach across the political divide!!!br /br /all these nonsense about the volta region must stop now! someone tell nana and all his followers and leaders. If you think i'm speaking jazz then look for the Bishop Agyin Asare's statement on the elections and read it for yourself!!!br /br /pal, I have always said that i believe that out electoral system (the whole system) is a very bogus one! but what? we have lived with it and improved it somehow since 1992! and Nana is one person who has in one way or the other taken part in elections in this country since then! so what??? has he suddenly realise all the faults in the system? and funny enough his view is not even universal...it's so skewed towards his ambition to become president.br /br /let me tell Nana what, if you believe in Ghana then what to do is to just stop the noise about the volta region and rather get to working to ensure folks all over the country are free to vote and be voted for!br /br /period!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='http://res1.blogblog.com/tracker/562766231881590428-2616140140470591844?l=novisi.blogspot.com'//div

  tain will tell???

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal dear,br /word around town says "tain will tell" instead of the well known "time will tell" [note: (Tain is pronounced, something like 'tine')]!br /br /so comes the political Showdown In Little Tain! ...i pity the poor folks who have to now bear the invasion of all sorts of people in their normal lives with so much at stake on a thin line between peace and war!br /br /Landslide:br /Pal, I don't think anyone should be myopic at all about the 2008 results in Ghana! the run-off produced a clear landslide victory for the old man Prof. Atta Mills! what??? am i crazy? no pal, i'm not crazy but i'm crazy still...but i'm not blind to the clear sight of all the baloon of figures from the Ashanti Region (amidts all the untrusted results from the volta region as well) that have made the totals look like it's just so close!br /br /Let's look at it again...close...closer...closely... a whooping 8 out of 10 regions voted for Mills and with good percentage leads! that leaves Nana Addo with only 2 regions. That is whooping! And out of the remaining 2 for Nana Addo his own home region which is the Eastern Region was hotly contested and the results there were almost split! That leaves Nana with only Ashanti Region which he won clearly (amidst the baloons that make nonsense of his win there anyway)!br /br /so a good read into the dynamics of the electoral results would clearly tell you that this elections was not and is not one that is too close to call. If i were Nana Addo, and i was declared winner of this elections i would be very worried...too worried! why? because it's clear that i don't have majority support in clearly 8 regions out of 10. that should be worrying enough! So again if i was Nana Addo, and given that everything points out that Atta Mills has won this elections i wouldn't play fool hardy with a strong head and pretend that only 'tain can tell'! I would have conceded!br /br /a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/elections/200812/24507.asp"Concede??/a:br /but pal, thankfully i'm not Nana and so i'm sitting in my little conner feeling proud about the votes i caste for the first and second time ever in my life while he is insisting and pretending that it's only a 'showdown in little tain' that can give Ghana president!br /br /but you see pal, some funny part of me also wishes Nana not to concede anyway so that he could get a sound thrashing in Tain with the hope that the kind of 'ghostly' 99% turn out in some parts of Kumasi does not result in Tain!br /br /but you see pal, for those who don't know that Nana really believes in 'moving forward' read what i'm about to point out. Nana and some few adamant folks following or leading him have started indicating that 'Tain will NOT tell' after all because either before or after Tain they are asking for re-run of some of the voting that took place in the volta region. They claim that their supporters were intimidated and some got beating and Gabby Ochere-Darko said on JoyFM this morning that some got 'apia'...therefore there should be a re-run??? is Nana a serious man??? is that what he percieves as good enough reason for re-run of polls when obviously foolishness was carried out by both parties?? even in Accra there was intimidation and beatings!br /br /So it's a full 'forward motion'; full-speed without looking to even see whether the way is clear or not. no! it's plain simple-'moving forward'...that's all...nothing else! So we are being told that they believe in the rule of law so want to see that the rule of law works! how not so cheap??? is it not funny that for a man who once told Mills to concede to Kufuor in the face of all sorts of irregularities in our polls suddenly realises that elections must be stretched to the very last vote no matter at what cost???br /br /But pal, i'm not surprised at all about Nana and his followers and leaders. Suddenly all the principles they have shouted at roof tops to believe in (which someone like me realised way back b4 2004 to be fake) are being turned over with impunity and being thrown at us? who would have thought that Jake 'son of the fatherless' Lamptey would today be looking JoyFM in the ass and castigating them for 'projecting' the elections in favour of Mills??? life is a square huh!br /br /There are several clear reasons why Nana Addo should (not must but should) just save us the trouble! but hey! I won't be surprised that the Nana man would call for a total re-run of the whole elections again just so that he becomes the winner! he just must be winner or else there was no elections... what does that kind of posturing tell a crazy mind like mine, let alone a sound one???br /br /a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/elections/200812/24507.asp"AND TODAY/a, of all days... I STILL HEAR NANA SAYING HE WAS THE winner OF THE FIRST ROUND OF BALLOTS (at a press conference in his house or so) TODAY OF ALL DAYS... this man who claims to have respect for the 'rule of law' does not even RESPECT HOW a WINNER is determined by the constitution of Ghana for a presidentail election! shame! if he doesn't know that is different but he knows and so to claim that he was winner is pure deception. He clearly knows that in a presidential election in Ghana a winner is one who obtains 'more than 50% of the total ballots cast! so what shit dat tok about he being WINNER??? 'winner for the where???'br /br /see pal, i'm no fun off Nana at all becaue i think the guy lacks some 'common sense'! some jump up and down about him...me i don't...not a man who tells me that he believes that everyman must own (and note that the word is 'own') a house! but see i would have given him his due had he clearly won this elections and then go on to give him some rope to prove to me he deserves my respect as a leader...that won't come automatically at all...but more and more the man proves that he does not care whatever happens so far as he he is crownned president!br /br /yet this is a man who while contesting for the nomination of his own party had to rely on the magnanimity of of his fellow contestant to have him enstooled or birthed or charmed or whatever but surely controversially made the presidential candidate of the npp!br /br /THE TRUE DEMOCRAT:br /so pal, what do you think if at the end of the day, Nana gets to win the Tain showdown so that prof Ata Mills as usual of him goes ahead to concede defeat! you think that would be end of story??? is anybody taking the political temperature in this country??? Do we realise that just because of the posturing of Nana, yesterday this whole country was almost plunged into some state of emergency with companies and shops closing by mid-day because of fear! has anyone imagined yet how much money the country lost yesterday???br /br /so the democrats that the leaders of the npp are! let's look at a simple scenario! Rawlings we are told is no democrat. ok...accepted! but how come the self-proclaimed democrats are showing little signs of any commitment to their own self proclamations! Meanwhile the evil Raw(lings) lead under some guise of democracy and HANDED OVER PEACEFULLY without hanging onw with any kangaroo tactics of delay when we kicked out the ndc with all the force we could muster! by that singular act, i dare say the likes of Akuffo Addo and Kuffour dare not accuse Raw(lings) of not being a democrat unless they realise their nonsense, admit it publicly and then repent profusely!br /br /Pal, if i was a member of the npp i would be very very very DISGUSTED by the posturing of Akufo Addo! yes i would! This is a man who across the length and breadth of this country is thought to be an ARROGANT person who has one and only one objective in this country and that objective is to become president! assuming this view of him is misplaced, how does he help himself by insisting that we must by all means finish in Tain and then go on perhaps to re-run others in the volta region before the winner be determined...??? how so when we have a very clear case on our hands!br /br /well pal, we can debate legalities in the court of law...but should that be the place for determining the presidents of this country really? would that leave us united??? so in as much as Nana may want to test some of his prowers at the law subject let him not plunge us all in any chaos!br /br /pal, if i don't make sense, then it's simply because Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is making no sense at all...br /br /cheers and let 2009 meet you well...br /br /br /PS...br /i want to salute the following sound minds for coming out to speak plainly of the ills about the elections yersterday when all the peace singers went mute when we needed them most!br /br /1.

  ghana elections

   » ‎ novisi
  pal,br /br /div style="text-align: justify;"Pal, thanks to the run-off, i've for the first time in my life done my second voting ever! nice one!br /br /I don't for the life of me trust the Ghana Electoral system enough! I just don't! no matter how it churns out president's so far for Ghana! the word is trust!!!br /br /and i will tell you why!br /I know the electoral system as a whole is ok but i don't trust it.br /br /1. We can't trust results from most parts of the Volta Region and we can't trust results from most parts of the Ashanti Region which both happens to be strongholds of the two major parties, ndc and npp respectively!br /br /2. I don't see why the EC allows voting by proxy! that can't be trusted enough!br /br /3. Up till now the EC agents are using 'makola' calculators but not at least pentium 1 laptops!br /br /4. A number of party polling agents and the EC officials do not understand the very rules set for the elections by the EC.br /br /these and other funny ways of transporting ballot papers and the collation of results makes it difficult for me to really trust the electoral system!br /br /Solutions:br /1. nullify the proxy system until we can make good sense out of it. just like ropal...don't let that thing come till we are making sense enough!br /br /2. improve on monitoring in the Volta and Ashanti regions!br /br /3. EC must start procuring and training officials to use computers for collations!br /br /4. The parties and the EC must train and train and retrain their agents on the rules!br /br /5. The system of prostesting against a suspected 'illegal' voter is not cool koraaaaaa! one has to only fill a form. that's all. meanwhile the results would be declared and then you have to look at the courts if the EC does not respond satisfactorily!br /br /okay man!br /i know elections is just ongoing...and i know the EC man Afari Djan has on several occassions assured Ghanaians...but maybe it's just that i don't see what Afari sees! but i'm stating that of all the elections conducted in the country so far, i can't trust the results enough! that includes 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004 and let me just include 2008 becuase it is on going!br /br /this view of mine would still be held by me no matter who wins the 2008 polls. I'm compelled to do this before any other time because of the fact that a friend of mine who has his photo ID but did not have his name on the list (because even though he registered properly he did not take the photo ID before the compilation of the list) nearly got disenfranchised because one polling agent of the NDC was not ready to allow him to vote! this chap clearly does not understand the electoral rules. first he does not want to accept that he's not supposed to prevent anyone from voting...for which i pity him cos after all the system of protest is funny!br /br /pal, before you refuse to think that i'm trying to be objective, note that this pal of mine was actually voting for change...as in he was actually going to vote to benefit the ndc polling agent anyway but of course how is that told on the face!!! but hey by the rules such disclosures at the polling station is not allowed therefore it did not even come up in our protest! We were four paddies who went there in all jamboree...two for Akuffo Addo and two for Atta Mills! a nice blend....br /br /thankfully, we managed to explain to the EC officials and everybody that we had confirmation from the EC that my friend was qualified to vote! can you imagine that voters were the ones teaching the EC officials their own rules??? that is the sad state of our electoral system!br /br /but i also don't think it's all gloomy! so yes we have an ok system but definitely not one i can trust enough!!!br /br /happy new year to you pal if i don't get back here in all jubilation amidst the wind of change b4 the coming of 2009!br /br /cheers!!!br //div

  Dr. Abu Sakara Forster

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal dear,br /br /I am looking beyond the 2008 elections!br /br /Ghanaians decided that it must be a run-off. no problem...i'm all ready and waiting...for sure Ghanaians have demonstrated beyond all doubt that there ought to be a change! The results of the first round of ballots more than demonstrate this fact.br /br /The wind of change is blowing...br /a href="http://www.thinkghana.com/elections/veep/abu-sakara/"br /Dr. Abu Sakara Forster/a:br /pal, I am looking beyond this elections already...i am! Dr. Abu Sakara Forster--that is the calibre of person i wish to be my kind of leader...call it president or shoe-shine! leadership must be befitted with quality and i dare say this is the kind of person Ghana needs...HE STANDS TALL AMONG ALL THE CANDIDATES FOR THE 2008 ELECTIONS, including all the presidential candidates (even though it's hard to close eyes on Mahama of the NDC!)br /br /i just said kind of person... and that means i do not mean he is the best for Ghana (there are surely others)...that means (according to me) i do not mean i'm too fanatical about him...i'm only pointing out that there is an example of quality we could try (and the word there is even try)!br /br /I've already started telling friends and foe and both that look, if we really want to move forward then we must be looking forward...not 'looking backwards'...no!br /br /So far the man has demonstrated that there is some kind of quality we could aspire to! I never trusted and would hardly (note: not never!) trust Dr. Nduom of the CPP. that i have overly stated. i've even time and time again said that the word trust is one that has little meaning so far as the human is concern. For screaming sake, i can't even trust myself! but Nduom is just not it, even though these days he seeks to be speeking some very very very (that's times 3) good sense which i deeply share. And Nduom is the one who made me come to know this guy (credit to him)! but i am a very serious self even though i believe stupidity is a spice of life but for the sake of good sense! (and i don't know what that means!).br /br /But pal, well..., I need not belabour the point here! you just need to hear that man called Abu Sakara speak... and if you can't identify with him say at least 70% of the time (don't ask me how i measured that--i used senses-meter!....meter of the senses!) of the time then i must be speaking rubbish! THIS IS A MAN WHO CLEARLY DRAWS PEOPLE TOGETHER!!br /br /well, let me leave it here for now, the whole point is that, we find ourselves in a fix, with labels flying more than good sense! i hate this shit! but that is our fate at this juncture! to choose between ndc or npp? but wait a minute? in as much as some may want to be bogged down with the labels i am too adamant to follow! i refuse to be drawn into any nonsensical partisan politics! for me it's a clear case! THE PEOPLE MUST ASSERT THEMSELVES TO MAKE POLITICIANS REALISE THAT POWER BELONGS TO THE MASSES! therefore CHANGE is one simple and complex way to send that signal loud and clear! LET CHANGE COME!br /br /but like i told you pal, i'm looking beyond this 2008 elections and i'm seeing persons with the carlibre of Dr. Abu Sakara as people who should lead us! i'm NOT (and i mean not) wowed by him. i'm simply yearning for quality!br /br /I hope to be able to marshal all energy i can, so that i could get an underground network going! it's not about party politics. and i wouldn't care if even he should stand on the ticket of npp (even though i think their idea of 'property owning democracy' is very very and very stupid from which they must repent and repent with a very high acceleration!). It's all about LEADERSHIP and one that casts such shadow is the man called Dr. Abu Sakara Forster!br /br /peace be onto me and you pal. and may we have change come soonest than later!br /br /cheers!

  CHANGE

  i STAND FOR CHANGE!br /br /for the first time i'm qualified to vote and i'm voting for change!br /br /yes that is what i stand for in the Ghana 2008 presidential elections! (and not just because i'm following Obama - i believe there's the need for change in Ghana too. just so!!!)br /br /and thanks to the most high i have bounced back to life after a short feel of infirment! i'm fit for change!br /br /and it is plain and simple...and complicated...the record (attitude, actions, sayings-insults in fact and wastage of public money) by the incumbent president Kufour is, to say the least, nonsensical! and he has the audacity to be comparing himself to the rest of Africa! how so cheap! how so not cheap when we all know the African situation is a SAD case!br /br /THE KUFUOR RECORD IS NOT ONE TO HAVE AS A STANDARD IN THIS 21st CENTURY!!!br /br /Ghanaians definitely deserve better than a president who would use public money to award himself. Ghanaians deserve better than a president who would call them lazy for complaining that they don't have money while he spends our taxes on frivolous travels around the world. Ghanaians deserve better than a president who plainly sets out to deceive the populace that our currency 'suddenly' (emphasis mine!) is of more value than the dollar after re-denominating the cedi!br /br /Ghanaians deserve better!!!br /br /Ghanaians deserve better than a president who would clearly decide to influence the judiciary just to have political opponents jailed under bizarre circumstances! Ghanaians deserve better than a leadership that does nothing about an Inspector General of Police under whom loads of cocaine go missing from the stores of the Police HQ! I can't for the life of me imagine that that man is still at post but thanks to Kufuor!br /br /That is not the kind of positive change Ghanaians voted for! Sure I believe so. And Kufour should have known that it wasn't that Ghanaians found him too lovable just to make him president! He should have been the first to realize that the stakes were upped too much for room for folly-play! He should have known that had it not been for the foolishness of the then NDC who were also perpetuating nonsense of leadership Ghanaians perhaps and just perhaps wouldn't have look in his direction!br /br /Therefore I stand for change!br /br /I stand for change even more so and not for retaining the NPP in leadership because the man seeking to lead on their ticket claims that Kufuor has done wonderfully well that we must stay the course! That tells me straight that that man called Nana Addo lacks good sense of judgement! and he tells me that he believes that every Ghanaian should own a house! HOW SO nonsensical! and he tells me that he's not seeking leadership to enrich himself because he already has a good job and yet a campaign member and former colleague of his is just about buying (robbing?) a house belonging to the state! a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/12/04/clinton.eligible/index.html"(and yet i've heard of the salary complications of hilary clinton's appointment!)br //abr /he can't be serious and i'm not too surprised because he Nana Addo too recieved a shambolic award from Kufuor! At a time when human beings are relizing shifts in approach to clear cases of bad leadership like McCain also calling for change profoundly however weak his call, Nana Addo claims that president Kufuor's work is one to be admired and clapped for! nonsense! even bush has started somewhat (somewhat yes!) appologizing for his ills!br /br /span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"So i will vote for change and i hope you do too! and if this change comes and it doesn't work I will vote again for another change! it is one way (if not only) to send a clear statement to political leaders that they must take us the people serious because the power belongs to us and not them! they are supposed to be our servants and we they must know that! we are no more in the age of slavery! human beings are fast learning!/spanbr /br /cheers!

Dr. Mahama (my natural choice for president...natural because i seek ultimately decency in leadership at this time of Ghana's life) makes the point that twenty thousand Ghana Cedis (this Kufuor's innovation is crazy enough...why not just cedis or Ghanaian cedis...but Kufuor and his cronies say we should call it 'Ghana cedi') is what is affordable for a house in Ghana. WHAT? that is pure nonsense my dear choice for president. IT IS...NONSENSE AGAIN!!!br /br /b. Akuffo-Addo agrees with Dr. Mahama. I have a feeling he was taken off guard by both the question and Dr. Mahama's response. pity! but....WHAT? THAT IS NONSENSE Mr. Akuffo-Addo my ABSOLUTE NO! choice for president. NONSENSE AGAIN!br /br /c. Dr. Nduom says you have to take income into consideration. beautiful answer by all standards anyday. That answer would stand firmly rooted into the reaches of time and space against all odds. beautiful!br /br /d. Prof. Atta Mills also says income is crucial and adds that an amount that can be paid over a period of 4 yrs or so is ok. Definitely also beautiful answer just like Dr. Nduom. very much rooted in the full expanse of time. beautiful.br /br /e. My Answer? definitely what i describe as beautiful. I think both Mahama and Akuffo Addo were off the beat. and more seriously I think the figure of 20,000 Ghana cedis (thus little less than $20,000) by Mahama and Akuffo Addo is not realistic enough! what are these men talking about? how many Ghanaians (out of the total 20 million or so) make 20,000 Ghana cedis in even a whole year?br /br /I thought that affordable must certainly have somewhere in it's armpit, yes that very armpit at least; the number of people WHO CAN! number of human beings (not kangaroos!)....number of Ghanaians...wrong? and sure that word which carries the meaning 'affordable' must also have somewhere in it's belly the prevailing economic situation! TALK about the many workers who don't get their pay like the railway workers and so on! enough said pal.br /br /HERE AND THERE:br /(In answer to another brilliant question by Isreal laryea (that what really does each candidate consider as the difference he's bringing to the table or chair) here's my pick: All the candidates try some but Akuffo Addo adds something very crazy!br /br /Akuffo-Addo once again convinces me that he does not deserve my vote. This man tells me he comes from a tradition and holds hardcore to the belief that every man and woman in this country must own a house...and that, that is what they call 'property owning democracy!'.br /br /Pal, that certainly can't be a statement of being true to even one's own self. definitely not. It's too much of cheap shit talk. you ask me why? well just take a more careful look at it. assuming it was possible as per his 20,000 Ghana cedis affordability measure for everyone including a fool like my idiotic self to own a house to him/herself under the sun! haaaaba! so what would we have? 20 million houses all over the place? each man and each woman with his/her own house owned by him and believed under property owning democracy by Akuffo Addo??? (and population has never been stagnant so far). Do we consider the effect on the earth on this one? how much space would we have for farming? football? Schools? and air to breathe!br /br /so even if we all had all the wealth and the ability to do what Akuffo Addo says he believes in, we dare not try it cos it would certainly amount to playing foolhardy of the extreme order higher than the order of the 'self-awarded' medal of his former master (and mentor by HARD force, me think) Kufuor! is this man for real? the last time he told us that food prices are on the decrease...is this man for real??? well, i wrote him off my thumb a long long time ago and yet he keeps doing little and little to almost nothing to convince my idiotic head.br /br /br /br /DIFFERENCE:br /I continue to make my point pal. simple: anyone who continues to tell me that the current administration is a standard to follow does not deserve my vote! It simply means that person does not realise the ills of leadership that has plagued Ghana! the main problem with have is not money is not food is not gari and shito.br /br /span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"THE PROBLEM WE FACE IS LEADERSHIP! as for the rest, we have what it takes to feed us and put shelter over our heads. WHAT WE NEED IS THAT LEADERSHIP THAT WOULD POOL OUR ENERGIES to exploit our resources for our development/span (and i don't mean industrialization, just!). some think development means industrialization...and that makes me wonder how many industries are there in Britain. well, another topic.br /br /The leadership we've hard under Kufuor has been too close to shit! me think. a load of mess!br /br /Nduom was okay today too. and beautifully for me Mahama woke up too today. and Atta mills too was sharp enough. Clearly Akuffo Addo, had some pep talk to do better oratory today! but those are not the substance for me and so I won't dare attempt a ranking like i veered off the last time.br /br /I'm staying focused on the harder issues! sure!br /Thank goodness and badness though that all the other contestants admit that there must be a change. Only Akuffo Addo says we must keep faith with the current mess. He is not serious me think. So there lies for me the one and simple difference again.br //divbr /CHANGE MUST COME and it must come pretty fast pal.br /br /br /cheers pal!

That's what he said...and what do I have to say? simple, yooooooooooooooooooo!br /br /For the records, and perhaps for a note of history (everything is history these days), I must say that I'm not against our leader (I always prefer 'leader' to the label 'president') having a fitting place for an abode 'complexed' with offices for government biz like No. 10 downing street in London or the Aso Rock in Nigeria. I have no problem with that principle, No!br /br /But clearly, most of the arguments (and i say most) being advanced by the leader of Ghana and his cronnies simply do not fly no matter what perfect wings one may find for them. They constantly make it look like anyone having a problem with the ediffice is against the idea. I dare say either they 'just don't get it' or that they are out there to throw mud and more mud into our clear eyes!br /br /one of such arguments is that the current seat of government a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu_Castle"(the Osu Castle)/a does not fit because it once served the colonial master's slave trade. And I just don't understand this spill of shit...for want of a better expression??? (maybe). but seriously I don't think this is a good point to make cos then at this juncture, one may dare to ask: why are we still residing in this country? why don't we relocate somewhere yet to be discovered on earth (if there's any such place) BECAUSE SLAVERY OR SLAVE TRADE WAS CARRIED OUT IN THE WHOLE LAND and the Osu Castle only served as on of those many points?br /br /why do we continue to glorify our chiefs and kings when a load of them are descendants of slave masters or human trafickers (i'm one who is totally against any rule by a so called chief or king by the way anyway all the way)! why don't we even escape the whole earth because we are too holly to submit to the lessons of slavery! what a shameful argument to make the construction of a so called Golden Jubilee House!br /br /so the building is not fully completed and yet Kufuor my beloved Kuffused wants to rush in there and start doing whatever there...after making so much noise earlier that he wasn't even interested in moving into the building before the end of his term.br /br /By the way and for the records, one of my main concerns with this whole building is the siting. I THINK THE SITING IS JUST TOO WRONG. bcos it does not take into consideration the fact me think that Accra has more than become motor-traffic choked! For this simple exercise of commissioning to be done today, traffic flow had to be blocked first...and the police announced it...sad, me say! so Ghanaians must be ready for more of such inconvenient blockades to allow for the all too vissionless endeavour of Kufuor my beloved Kuffused!br /br /I wonder how many years this building would serve a meaningful purpose if nothing is done about the traffic-flow! I've been too Nigeria to see the Aso Rock and for me that is what I would call vission. In as much as I would love (not like) government to be close and closer to the people but ours actually makes a lot of nonsense of good judgement! bcos right infront of the premises is one of the major roads in Accra that also leads to the 37 military hospital-an easy reason for allowing free uninhibitted flow of traffic...but hey, someone thinks not obviously!br /br /I would not have a problem if some place like Cantoments or Roman Ridge is where this building was rather located away from heavy traffic.br /br /and what is Kufuor saying we should call it? GOLDEN JUBILEE HOUSE? well for a Kuffused who labels a ministry as 'Ministry of Tourism and Mordenisation of The Capital City' (yes...The Capital City...yes, mannnnnnn!) I don't find this out of place at all. It sounds sweetly in line with a certain philosophy (mindset?) which i find hard to fanthom!br /br /div style="text-align: justify;"I think seriously Ghanains deserve better than this building which i don't know how long it would serve us! I have a feeling it won't be long before we realise how useless a thing we've done to ourselves (did i just include me? I don't want to- I'm a free man no matter how i'm tied in man).br //divbr /meanwhile, the a href="http://news.myjoyonline.com/news/200811/22602.asp"French Embassy/a is still within the premisses as Kufuor goes ahead to commission.

  NO, @bama!

   » ‎ novisi
  div style="text-align: justify;"div style="text-align: justify;"Pal,br /I won't wait for Obama to take the oath of office no! no, Obama no...I won't wait!br /br /sure I gave my support to Obama from the very onset in the race for the presidency...and I would do it all over again should same contest be staged out in a 'nostalgic' replay (you know i really wish the contest wasn't over so soon!).br /br /I just finished listening in to BBC radio and a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/focusonafrica/presenters/story/2005/12/051215_david-amanor.shtml"David Amanor/a is in Ghana pitching his own cross-breed self (we call them half-cast in Ghana) under the focus on Obama's race- is he black or white? he want's to know what Ghanaians think or how they relate.br /br /me say pal again and again, let Obama be yellow or purple or green or collourless...for here we go again on this interesting but non-essential!br /br /but hey, the deal is done and now we face the real issues: Iran is one of them. And one of the reasons I love the guy Obama was when he made it clear and i quote:br /"Meeting with somebody is not tantamount to agreeing with them," a href="http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2007/09/24/obama-stands-ground-on-meeting-with-ahmadinejad/"READ MORE/abr /br /so what has happened:br /1. span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, has congratulated Barack Obama on his US presidential election and called for "fundamental and fair" changes to US foreign policy. a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/11/06/iran.obama/"click here/a/spanbr /span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"/spanbr /span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"that is a fair deal me think; considering how divided the world has become due to the 'all knowing' Bush who does not realise that the world is more a complex place than his 'only-two-dimensional' view that you are either for them or against them! what foolish way of reducing the world's potentials. **bite** wo...wo...wo...wolf...dog?!/spanbr /span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"/spanbr /span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"so what? so Barack should simply reply to /spanspan class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"Ahmadinejad's congratulatory message. NO? it's only a message of congratulations...be disisive Barack...respond and tell him his concerns would be looked into...(and that wouldn't be tantamount to agreeing with him according to one of your own reasoning...why i am a supporter) that is more of a better tactical play than delaying the response./spanbr /span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"/spanbr /span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"Pal, I DETEST THE FACT THAT IRAN IS CALLED an islamic state...human beings live there for fuck sake...not merely a bunch of 'religious-no-matter-whats'. So I would not want to see any country labeled by any religious fanatic after his/her belief...LET THERE BE NO CHRISTIAN OR ISLAMIC OR ANTOA-NYAMAIC STATE(after Antoa Nyama - one of the many gods in Ghana)...we are a free people for orgasm sake!/spanbr /span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"/spanbr /span class="DetaildSuammary" id="Htmlphcontrol1"2. And then Obama says that Iran developing nuclear /spanweapon is unacceptable? YES IRAN CAN...yes they can! and why can't they when America has it's own stock of nuclear weapons? Pal, me think America is a funny establishment! America is the only country in all of man and woman's history to have launched an attack of weapons of mass destruction on fellow human beings-a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_bombings_of_Hiroshima_and_Nagasaki"HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI OF 1945/a (a href="http://www.gensuikin.org/english/photo.html"more here/a). Yet Obama want's to dance to the tune of the establishment? how dare him? And so why won't a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/11/08/iran.obama/index.html"Iran blast Obama/a...yes they must..and i agree with them...well somehow!br /br /Of course i fully appreciate that this sh*t (the 'i' is not visible to sting??? hehehehe) is a dangerous minefield that needs a careful and balanced head...Obama! I'd would always be hopeful...yes I would!!br /br /So what is my take? Obama should not push Iran away further into their dark corner! Obama must measure the weight of his words carefully...afterall i don't see why he made the 'unacceptable' comment anyway because it wasn't asked for explicitly...what was asked about was the a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/11/06/iran.obama/"Ahmadinejad's congratulatory message/a...as to whether he replied or not! a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/11/07/obama.conference.transcript/index.html"transcrip here/abr /br /Me think simply (and simply yes...amidst the complexity) that no one should have weapons of mass destruction in this world...not America, not Russia, not Iran and not even my own crazy self (else i would beat the whole world into submitting to my foolishness)!!!br /br /so what? so if America want's Iran to recede from it's development of nuclear weapons then they must do better than playing God and rather bring them to the negotiation table!br /br /cheers pal!br //divbr //div

Character and message really counts...the balance must be good to get my support truely and truely!br /br /I mean pal, this is the information age (global village...be it real or not) and let no one bog me down with self-ills like supporting Obama just because he's black! I would have naturally said that is stupid...like i like to say in the street...you know! but i wouldn't say that on this ocassion (as if i haven't already...hehehehe)!br /br /and the funny thing is that, the majority of the voters (those whose CHOICES REALLY MATTER) in this election are not blacks...they are caucasians...and so why all the fuse if this whole struggle could just come crumbling in should the CHOICES come down to only familairity of skin collour!br /br /It's history yes...and so what?...it would still be history even if he doesn't win...so history and so what? it would still be history if he wins and ends up screwing-up big time like my bizness...we need better galvanizing of our energies than just talking trash...and that's why I support Obama...also because i sense he sees beyond a note of history!br /br /I'm supposed to be happy today pal...but this balooney just got me off course a bit...i'm done...br /br /I'm off to the vigil for Obama...(and it's for a greater course than the skin collour)...that one...you betcha!!!br //div

  the debate

   » ‎ novisi
  so it came to past...
  
  four out of the 8 presidential candidates took questions and gave answers under some guise called presidential debate...i'm not sure really! it wasn't a debate enough! it was more of a question and answer session!
  
  my view:
  
  it was generally a boring encounter...apart from Dr. Nduom who made some show of it...>>show boy Dr. Nduom>Mr. Nana Akuffo Addo was too eager to defend Kuffour's past 8yr record while spewing a lot of words with little substance...some think he 'talks' English with a nice drawl (slangs?). For me his only bright moment was when he referred to the bill that was passed by parliament yesterday! and he also had some figures however true or false to show he's on top of issues...
  
  But in trying to hard to defend the Kuffour's administration this man dares to tell us that food prices have been on the decrease??? is this man in this country? is he intouch? and he was misleading...asking whether the construction of the Bui Dam was in the handing over notes that NDC passed to NPP...when Prof. Mills suggested that had they followed on the NDC's energy plans the country wouldn't have had the recent energy crisis...and Prof. Mills did not mention Bui dam...he mentioned the west Africa Gas Pipe line, Osagyefo Badge... and for sure it was during the energy crisis that the Bui Dam that was started by Kwame Nkrumah was revisited! So Nana can't mislead folks like me...No! He Can't!
  
  Nana either did not understand Prof. Mills indication that the manufacturing sector's contribution to GDP was zero or that he just chose again to mislead by putting out in folly-bravado figures from his stomach...what's it that said about mangoes and apples?...which figure is even fact-checked to be in the negative...meaning that Prof. Mills was even charitable or that he too was not sure of the figures!
  
  Then when Prof Mills suggested that let nobody think that it is because of their good needs that Ghana has found oil, Nana Addo, came saying well, it's surely luck...LUCK??? is that we should reduce our leadership to? (to suggest that the NPP has some good omen following their rot i guess...No wonder Andrew Awuni claims that Kuffour is full of grace....and that's why Ghana found oil...how so cheap!) ...this kind of mentality is sickening pal! yet this is a man who claims he believes in Ghana...luck?
  
  I have said constantly, that if I were this man, I would flee from Kuffours record because it's nothing to write home about...even McCain is fleeing from Bush...clear and simple!
  
  >>Prof. Atta Mills was for me did not add style to his delivery...and i could see through the radio...he was straight...charisma??? but that's trivial...he put out some substance and that's more important...but he did not take on Nana Addo well enough...I'm sure I would have done a better job... I would never allow that guy (that one) to runaway with any false impressions...never...I would have painted the picture and put it in his face well and square and he would dare!
  
  but it was Prof. who had the opportunity...and I expected him to have hit hard on the issue of security by at least pointing out that the administration of which Akuffo Addo was part could not deal with cocaine problem by citing for example that the IGP does not deserve to be in office after having loads of cocaine stollen from the store room of his HQ without trace upto date!
  
  Prof. should have 'taught' Akuffo Addo how to differentiate figures by restating the point about the GDP contribution of the manufacturing sector instead of allowing him to run with that false impression of him having corrected Mills.
  
  However, Prof. Atta man for me gave the 'sweetest' closing remark. It was one that told why he wanted to be president- to serve (very profound statement that) and it traced his background as a teacher who learnt well through his own students how not to brag and think himself the best there can ever be but that there are always others who could do better in any given situation. (Clearly a subtle but very strong take on Akuffo Addo who tells us that he is the 'best man for Ghana'). i loved that one! let no one brag at all...else one would be called to show it...
  
  >>Dr. Nduom!! This man has done himself some good and he's the News after the debate...with all his corn tactics (me think corn man he is). But sure he was the show boy from dressing (as I found out later) to presentation style. And he tickled me...yes he did...only at the back of my mind I can't cease for forget that he's a corn man! even though I'd personally choose him over Akuffo Addo any day so far because he makes the point that there must be change (no matter how it narrows to his ambition). I'm only sad that he's the candidate leading the CPP of the great Nkrumah...sad...
  
  but the guy tickled me massive. he brought his points home more easily than all the other contestants though I can't trust him. he was massive and I would laugh 'for' him (not 'at' him, mind) some times. He certainly was the show boy of the night! and i'm happy for him for the fact that at least he's doing well for the CPP because more people take him serious compared to the immediate past leader Agudey. I pray CPP is the future!
  
  >>Dr. Mahama! Four years ago he was the darling debater. But he clearly lost some touch this time round...he could not connect very well with his points...but he was also practical with issues. He did Ok. Left to Me alone, I would make hime the next president for the nation! Yes!
  
  So My ranking:
  
  1st. Dr. Nduom,
  2nd Prof. Mills,
  3rd Dr. Mahama,
  4th (and last) Mr. Akuffo-Addo
  
  Conclusion:
  For me pal, the whole point i got from this debate is the re-enforcement of the fact that there must be a change in leadership...Akuffo Addo does not think so and claims that we should stay the course...as if there was even one when the country is really on autho-pilot...what course? but I do and I recommend that you do too!
  
  Let there be change!

  one child, two fathers

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,
  so what if my mom had two husbands so that i had two fathers?
  
  could you or would you be bothered which one actually planted me in my my mom's womb as per what the biology books say?
  
  so well, i close my friday on an interesting note! one woman and two brothers for husbands and they actually do the coupling biz by schedule! polyandry extraordinaire!
  
  and just imagine what would come to one 'on-heat' brother while the other is deep inside..."i wish it was my turn instead of my brother to 'eat' OUR wife tonight" (and a translation into twi would always make a deeply beautiful read) the disappointed fellow...ooohhh...don't worry, tomorrow will be your turn! and so voices would come to encourage him from somewhere nowhere!
  
  but like you'd read, it's for definite reasons...economic chiefly...oh...meanwhile the likes of McCain have 13 or so cars see? and those certainly ain't the Tata cars of today!
  
  i've always known that such a thing as polyandry exists somewhere in the indias but i never really knew that it involved brothers...so that one is new...and i think somewhere on the african continent too it's present...false? well these days i hear that wearing of earings by guys has never been an african thing...but i've seen loads of Masai guys don the earings with pride...hip hop culture??? how about tatoos? they've always been with us too...used for IDs since the time man thought it so...multi-dimenssional now with a bling culture...true?
  
  loads of funny things in the world yo! and religion even makes it even more murky but it's still a free world...well...but for the likes of Bush and Osama! hehehehehe...
  
  so Pal, just keep at what you do best right!
  
  have a lovely weekend and cheers!

  foolish acts

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,
  
  ONE:
  there's a guy about town who thinks he can take us all for a ride!
  Pal, i wouldn't scream it to the whole world by published word if i should hear that you got yourself involved in banned stuff if i don't have equally published word, and this time, hardcore (and i don't mean the other ones) photo and or video as evidence to back up my a**
  so why does this guy Victor Smith (read this and that) think that he could come telling us that he's got *hearsay evidence* that the president (and i don't call 'that one' that anyway-bcos i think he's just way unfit to be my president->and that's a very very very charitable way of putting it) has been involved in some shady deals in oil fields and so we should all jump!? how so cheap? and how so not cheap?
  hearsay evidence? that's just one foolish act! stupid! 
  Me think just like you *may choose* to think or even pray and believe, that this person who JUST HAPPENED on us as the president of Ghana called Kuffour has done too much EVIL (not the religious sin, note) to merit us lashing him out of the presidency with sharp whips like it's done in some sharia states! And most importantly one needs not go to search for the ills of this bad man on the moon! so someone tell Victor Smith to put up or shut up!!
  (well only about the way he's going on on this particular issue....he may sure scream out loud on other issues...and even this same issue if he chooses to continue...well...just bcos i believe in freedom of the word)! but please, one must not give this *bad* man any *false self-assuring* impression or reason to dare point a finger!
  
  one small point worthy of thought me this is that, I don't believe that Ghanaians voted for Kufour because they believed in him (well, i'm included for the first term, not the second...i supported) but rather people wanted the NDC and their ills out of the way and he Kuffour whom i affectionately call *the Kuffused* just HAPPEND to be by the roadside...so we picked him)
  
  TWO:and pal, another one. This one is such an act that just makes you feel so insulted you want to insult back as well...or at least by some self-refining; you may just want to ask WHY? as in: "Madam, why did you just insult me?"
  some think insult is only when you call a fellow an ASS!? (and i just spelt that out loud). me think not! so well why would this woman who was awarded a state medal by the president just because he *himself* nominated her and got her to be the first woman chief justice of Ghana (and i just heard someone ask what good would it be if instead of Obama *hopefully* all we get is Kwame Kilpatrick becoming the president of the US of A as the first black man! ??? question marks) she can get away with statements that just insult our intelligence to the core? ? ?
  This woman want's us to believe that the Judiciary in Ghana is so PURE that no one and absolutely no one does (or can do) a remote control of the HUMAN BEINGS who sit on the cases of the land. and she want's the little kids in KG to believe her infantile throw-about???question is, what at all is that thing called logic anyway? how so cheap an act? and how so not foolish???
  or is it just a play of the ostrich? see no evil, hear no evil??? how so not cheap again!!!?
  and pal, with all my obsession for Obama and NOT because he is black, see if this isn't just so cute of a 106 year old mum who lived through the years of crazy segregation and  did the electric slide up until the age of 103. The world certainly is in need of a fresher air!
  cheers pal.keep up the fight!

  GUILTY?

   » ‎ novisi
  hi pal, been awhile still...ok...no apologies to bore you but take the following to spark a debate. cheers:
  

  GUILTY?

  so

  i was seated before

  she walked in

  
  

  left…right…left…right

  
  

  hips swaying

  almost gyrating

  in a slow story-telling motion

  
  

  fitted by a desert-hot
  

  shadowy short skirt

  setting her legs free to feel EarthAir
  
  
  

  her feet angled to earth

  on elevated heels

  with a slopping tease

  
  

  her toes almost kissed earth

  with every one of her

  pretentiously delicate steps

  
  

  she had on a spaghetti top

  lacy and windy

  hanging just above her wavy navel

  revealing skin so groomed

  it makes a man kick

  
  

  as she got closer

  the bangles adorning her arms

  rang a collourful mix

  of purple, pink, yellow and green

  
  

  she took a seat by the next table

  with her spellbinding backside
  

  arched to my wowed eyes

  
  

  but before I could breathe in

  the spread of collours

  of the weave of beads
  

  that circled her waist

  
  

  she turned and arrested my spellbound eyes

  and it was as though she wanted to ask:
  

  Guilty? or Not Guilty?

  A Poem Yet To Be Titled

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,
  For the first time I had to learn the way I woman speaks...
  
  This piece (the poem below) is yet to be titled...a challenge for me cos it's never happened to me before...(I mostly get my titles up first)...suggest one if you may...
  
  It's as a result of a request made by a friend who wanted to express gratitude to her hubby (with some romantic lines-->I'm not sure what that means...hehe!)...and this was way back in June...it's now ready...and I hope she likes it...
  
  so enjoy:
  
  
  Let me feel your voice caress
  the curves of my shoulders
  down to my pulses
  
  I'm your woman
  Kay
  I'm glad you're my man
  
  And I wish...
  wish I could capture
  your hearts desires
  and turn them into all that you dream
  
  For the manly shoulder
  you give me to lean on
  when I don't feel strong
  
  For the warmth you give me
  when I feel the touch of your palms
  on my arms...
  healing the goose-pimples
  that seize me under ice-cold freezing fears
  
  For that smile I see in your eyes...
  Lighting up my days
  even while you're away
  
  Could I be grateful enough?
  
  Kay
  Hug me...hold me
  
  Let me feel you voice caress
  the curves of my shoulders
  down to the very depth of my pulses
  I'm your woman
  and I'm glad you're
  my man
  
  Notes:
  

  1. Kay only represents the man's name...it may just change to the actual name later when I get the all clear to use it in public.
  2. Pal, you might just be the first to read the poem. My friend is yet to see it...tomorrow.

  Down!

   » ‎ novisi
  This one "is come" to you in a blast (uneditted) and is tagged EIGHTEN! not PG!
  
  I'm not inspired pal...!
  
  i'm not!
  not with all the nonsense around me. is it any wonder that i've been off the BlogerLand awhile without warning!
  but see, last time that Obama made his acceptance speech, i stayed up all night (it was as late or as early as about 2.20 am) just to hear some inspiration...AND I GOT IT...!
  That is just a man like me. it doesn't matter where the sense is coming from once it's sense enough and even more i would watch and listen!
  but i do listen to nonsense too. I love nonsense for that little mischievous part of me to dance around with just for the nonsense sake of it...so i'm currently following the McCain thing and waiting to hear him too...aaaah, i heard Bush too this morning...another night worth the wake for a dose of nonsense feed! That guy thinks he can use 'the fear of fear' to get thinking people to cow whiles he perpetuates nonsense on the blind side of their consciousness. 
  Bush does not get it! (just like Obama puts it to McCain) else he wouldn't be screaming about us living in a dangerous world and pretending to be the one who has secoured America! and there question comes: 'secured against whom or what?' No...Bush does not get it- that his type of leadership to say the least is shit! he does not get it! No he doesn't because the same person he insists should be the next president of America is 'in a way' (a way not enough, me think)  calling for change in the leadership of Washington! would Bush 'the bush one' ever get it?
  And what's it with my folks in Ghana? I'm all for the point that 8 yrs of the Kuffour administration has been so close to shit and we need better! Ghanaians deserve far better (i wish i could rather just be saying human beings deserve better instead of having to play on this sectorial shit called nations or countries- and yet, they just don't count!) 
  but what do we see or hear? the presidential aspirant of the rulling npp is all about town claiming that the Kuffour administration had laid a 'solid foundation' on which he would come to build. What nonsense to proclaim...when our economy is in shambles, when corruption has been reduced to the president only practically challenging us, (DARING US in fact) to bring evidence else he wouldn't investigate allegations against his officials and education and practically every sector seems to be on the decline. 
  Pal, don't tell me our economy is doing well because we have re-denominated our currency. No, don't tell me that else I'd refer you to Zimbabwe (click here) having done same and the result is no change! afterall what is this deception...? mapping 10 to 1 and then going on to tickce oneself and laugh out loud foolishly at the new label '1' that just ONLY represents '10'? human beings deserve better!
  If i were Akuffo Addo, the npp presidential candidate, i would flee from the record of Kuffour like the way McCain is trying to do somehow! at least, then we would be sure that, we won't have a president who would only come to praise himself and use tax-payer's money foolishly! we would be sure then that there would be a CHANGE, a depature from the nonsense 8yrs we have endured!
  and sad things! our folks are killing brothers and sisters already even before the election comes. No Pal...No! let there be peace and hopefully change will come! 
  I'm not drawing parallels here with the Obama's message for the sake of it. It is just that it's what we need to move forward. We cannot and must not allow any more of 8yrs of failed promissed and policies to the extent that it breeds impunity!
  Change...pal...change!

  Pal,
  
  Today history was made and i'm just all bathed in the excitement...
  
  USAIN BOLT more than cruised to the olympic 100m final and blasted his own WR away with a new one (9.69s) in sensational fashion without even trying too hard
  
  and i bet you should have seen this race. it was phenomenal...
  blisteringawesome
  meteoric
  
  a pure celebration of human potential...amazing!
  
  and i don't know what happened to Asafa Powel...i had hopes for him...he is one athlete who just needs a decoration for his achievement too!
  
  meanwhile, baring any drugs (i hope not pal)...i'm enjoying it to the full!

  who knows you

   » ‎ novisi
  i couldn't help LAFIN out too loud this afternoon...
  
  a friend is seeking appointment...just done (almost) with his national service and is going job-hunting...
  
  today he came back from an interview and says it wasn't easy...as usual...
  
  but what freaked me out was the acknowledgment of the new trend in the scheme of things...
  
  who knows you?
  so now it's not just about 'whom you know' as is the acceptable unwritten code but the now and holy 'who knows you?'
  
  the point is you may know someone but does the person you know in an establishment who can pull one or two strings in whatever direction know you too (and the word 'enough' is an added advantage) to pull those strings in your favour?
  
  Pal, it's all a matter of bread and butter!
  
  i'm still laughing...

  few moments of pride

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,
  i've lately been reading more blogs: Kwansema, Kajsa Hallberg Adu and Que? , deep and lovely reads. and yeah, th3s3 bunch are just lovely specials- u got to read them some!
  
  
  Citizen of the world:
  that's what this man is. and a true one for that matter [though i don't see why Iran must not make it's weapons if America has one- (though i stand for a free world devoid of Nuclear weapons)]--> America dare not fail the world...VOTE FOR HIM and let's cultivate others like hime and more than him!
  
  
  Ivory Coast humbles
  they take steps however meager me think to show concern...and it did not come easy though cos the people fought for it with more threats of demonstration...the hard way sadly...
  
  but pal, these are the kind of examples that our African leaders need to be setting. and i dare say the leaders of Ivory Coast dare not ask for applause for these actions of theirs let alone some form of awards for doing what they ought to do!
  
  Africans (i'm an african-tagged citizen of the world) are just tired from non-thinking non-sensitive leaders who don't want to accept that care in the use of public funds is part of their RESPONSIBILITY and makes me see that this response (link) is foolish! point is who told this man that we are asking for 'cut and paste'. For Christ's sake (i'm no religious fanatic!) that is where one realizes that intelligence counts-> not necessarily 'cut and paste'
  
  
  Renewable Energy:
  It is the way forward...me continue to wonder with all the fight over oil, where will the world end up since fossil fuels are bound to finish like phisssss! so Dr. Joseph Adelegan and Chewang Norphel give me more pride and hope into the future as one of the citizens of the world.
  
  Quest for ExcellenceKwesi Amoak certainly makes one proud too. I was there at the launch and sure we have to share in his achievement.
  
  Religious meat:
  oh this thing... i wonder what next will come to man to eat! without an apology to no man like me, i'm just a far cry from any religion... and...and...and, i'm neither one who does not believe in a super super super power! there surely must be one...according to me...without apologies still...and more ellipses too...
  
  what else to say? hey.... i missed the first meet up of bloggers in Ghana for sure...really cute looking folks...too bad... but i pray to make it to the next meet (not meat).
  
  
  Th3 Lett3r A:
  meanwhile pal, I'm loving this guy called Asafa. and i'm praying the olympics' spirits deal him well...he deserves a crowning...no doping man! else i will withdraw my support! for now go all the way man...keep going!
  
  The letter Z:
  Pal let me end by wishing my folks in Zimbabwe the very best as they seem to be making some way towards unity for progress!
  
  Peace!

  (it's a two line poem which i hope to put in versions of different shades!)
  
  the above photos display two states of the same thing called idiocy...or do you see a difference? on the left is the OneTime self-entitled Emperor Bokassa of Central African Republic and on the right is the NowTime self-entitled Kuffour of Ghana, the all too good beyond excellence and beyond still...
  _________________________________________
  
  
  meanwhile, me need some sanity around me balls pal...!...me do!
  
  INDIVIDUAL SOVEREIGNTY (Kofi Anan talked about it before):
  i've been off the blogaworld for a dazing short while; during which time i've forced-found space to do a self inquisition...looking 'down' into myself and questioning myself...can i give me a PERSONAL SOVEREIGNTY?
  
  I have become appalled for some time now by actions and inactions of leadership in my country of origin Ghana! and by those of other countries both far and near enough to cause me headache... I've been wondering... what's there to gain from a collective political structure that time and time again only ends up bestowing on an innocent fool like me even grander fools of orders of higher magnitudes who do not only fail on delivering on promises but spit on you and top it up with insults to your raw intelligence!
  
  Now, i've been nurturing the idea...turning it in multitudes of permutations and combinations, over and over, round and round, side-ways, to and fro... all in flips of different sizes of pages of different collours and textures! how many different re-arrangement could one achieve in all a life-time really? but pal, me need a personal sovereignty. I mean i wish i could achieve a state of my person where i don't have to associate by birth or death of me with any so called country! AND YOU DARE PREACH ME PATRIOTISM!!! no don't... i know all about it...it means you must wear it -LIKE a national flag-lapel tagged to your clothed chest! what's to derive from such by merely displaying it in all fun-fair without upholding a true spirit of HUMANITY!
  
  as a matter of fact, i find this whole concepts of nations, states, empires, republics, kingdoms (and try to call it monkey or chimp and the name changes nothing) very inconsistent with the human spirit! sorry pal, i really wanted to say i find it very stupid...and i just wish i wasn't a part of it all.
  
  but i'm still reaching deep into my spirit to find out how to free my spirit...i believe i deserve better...don't you and me think NOT the same! differences make it all beautiful...
  
  BLING-BLING!! - 50 CENT comes to town:
  i already did my blog justice by hurling it (yes it) out @ (no email address here) my president (i've hardly given him that recognition, i don't lie...) much to my own unsatisfied-insatiable-satisfaction in my 'concerty party' post.
  
  but the matter won't just go away! the man actually goes ahead to award himself in the style of the Bokassas, Idi Amins and the Mobuto Sese Sekos... now we learn what it has cost us! Ghana spends $1.4m on gold medalsand i just can't imagine how many kids have died out of malaria which situation could have been helped if not for such ARROGANT DISPLAY OF IDIOCY! LINK
  
  
  {Kuffour in his full blings...and with him are Akuffo Addo, his party's presidential candidate also fully attired in his 'by-heart-given' award, along with heads of the security services and their awards. The one whose face is covered by Akuffo Addo is obviously (by the head DESIGN) the Chief of Staff; his award can be seen around his neck.}
  
  
  But BBC's Will Ross thinks 50 Cent just landed in Ghana? -that we compare our Kuffour (whom i affectionately call the Kuffused with abundant love ever since i realized his head was full of confusion) to 50 Cent? or he want's me to think he coined it himself? fact is, we (i frankly don't know how many of the 'we' though) compare him Bokassa of stupid memory!
  
  but Will Ross did not do much justice by not showing picture of the Kuffused one with his gold medal envisioned, initiated and created by him, earned by him and only him and given to his person by his same person with another award winner Chief Justice (who also go awarded right after being appointed by same kuffused even before she took her oath of office) who only did the SYMBOL-THING (mind, not symbolic-there must be a difference!) of hanging it around his neck. two shameless ones flock together i guess! else if i were her i would have resigned my position to save hard earned integrity! do they have any sense of sensitivity at all, these shameless ones, do they? take a fabulous look at the two below? tell me what you see pal...!
  
  looks like the man Kuffused cherishes his gold medal more than the will of the people to have him as president by whatever, me think, design of unfortunate fate...me think!
  
  
  Pal, in sum, i refuse to be associated with such buffoonery! So gimmie my soveriegnty...while i continue to think through how to maze my spirit through all the haze imposed on man by man! gimmie my sovereignty!

  The Audacity of no GUN-SHOT

   » ‎ novisi
  pal mine,
  
  we must celebrate humanity through this achievement! LINK.
  
  Obama spells out the kind of underlining principle for me as brightly on our horizon with the coming of the dawn as the path to chart for a renewed and re-energizing of the human spirit with new visions!
  
  I find that it's about time we stopped the antagonistic characterisations and look to build bridges. I share in the struggles of rebels around the world. for example why should people in the Niger Delta in Nigeria be so deprived of their own resources only to be forced to pick up guns and bombs...i share in the spirit of the human to the core!
  
  so for me where you stand should only be a different if not unique collour...it must not be seen as a bad collour...and i don't know if i make sense...but this achievement for me is beautiful for the fact that lives were preserved! not a single shot from no blood-happy blazing gun!
  
  I'm humbled by this daring achievement by my fellow human beings. For me it tells that nothing is impossible. There surely are better ways of handling whatever human situation and we must use our heads.
  
  I think the world has been deprived of logical and reasoning leadership with the coming of the likes of bush in America, Kuffour in Ghana, Blair in UK and all the other wastes! so let the world have a massive change!
  
  and so is hollywood coming out with the re-enactment soon. Pal, i can't wait for that premier!
  
  Yes we can! (to borrow from the obama campaign)

  Concert Party !!!

   » ‎ novisi
  pal,
  first i laughed...because i thought it was hillarious, i actually burst my sides...then i grinned, because i thought it was cheap...and then i reflected...
  
  our president is dishing out national awards to which merit and exclusivity cannot be denied as a vital ingredient for selection as though it was so cheap a thing you could as well just pass by a market stall and pick up one whenever you like!
  
  but seriously speaking, this country which i have been fortuned or mis-fortuned (or both- in which case the word 'and' becomes vital) to be associated with by way of nationality by birth is being played out in comedy by comedians and a concert by a pack of concert party all at once!
  
  For me, for a president who chooses to award a woman he himself appoints as chief justice even before she assumes office, i find that actually; THIS IS NOT FUNNY BUT IT IS !!
  
  was it ever said that people like Idi Amin and Eyadema used to give themselves honours? well i hardly find the difference here!
  
  POINTERS (one or two):
  --IGP: our Instpector General of Police has so many questions about cocaine to answer and yet he's been nominated for an award! This man should have been removed from office long ago...and if not for all the other allegations for which he's answered none...at least for having cocaine disappear from the store of the police headquarters under his 'able' watch without trace! what a shame!
  
  --The fact that this list also has a few sons and daugters who are well deserving of their awards or even more (if there was more) cannot and does not take away anything from the fact that this whole dance is shit!!! (i love this word shit). and if i had my way i would ask all of the deserving and self-respecting ones to say: "Thank you mister award-cheapening-president but no thanks".
  
  --A good number of this award winners are either members of the current administration (ministers/hangers-on) or past members! what does that say? thank you for good jobs done? is that all? how so a way of making the awards look foolish!
  
  --IC Quaye, mine o mine! this is a man who opens his mouth and literally insults the Ghanaian public with his shit...this is a man who says if you don't want this Kuffour led government you could go fuck your mama! and here we are, he's being awarded, for what?
  
  --It is also important to recognise that this is not the first time that the president is dishing out state awards! he's done so a number of times already. but the NUMBERS this time around is rocking-241! what a thing?
  
  Pal, I dare say all Ghanaians must wake up and scream this president out of foolishness if need be! This can't pass for any seriousness...at best it is an insult to the intelligence of all well meaning Ghanaians!

  one photographic mix

   » ‎ novisi
  A lot has been happening on my side of the world lately...
  
  Tsatsu & the number 5:
  So they nailed (i don't mean he's guilty...the court says so!) one of our sons of the land amids so much fishiness to 5yrs...but who's got the rotten fish...i know time will tell pal. care to READ?.
  
  My country (i'm not a fun of these artificial divisions called countries apart from for sporting reasons like the olympics) has this "thIng" called law; labeled 'causing financial loss to the nation' for which if/when one is 'found guilty' (no! deemed is a better word than 'found' in these circumstances) he/she must be made to do time or whatever so apportioned!
  
  me tink that pal, that tHiNg called law is so vague and with all the powers in this country vested under the bushy or clean-shaven armpit of one man labeled president, it just passes for a gun-powder to aim @ political opponents!
  
  I've heard the opposition leader, brother-man Atta Mills the prof. one say it's NOT a bad law but for it's implementation! i want to ask him...if the law is that good, how come it lends itself to so much crazy manipulation in it's implementation that it leads to the mess for his own party man...paL, that tHinG is sh*t law. period!
  
  ACcOuntabiliTy:
  I am one of those who simply believe that people voted into power MUST JUST ACCOUNT to 'the people' (whoever they are...the people...heeeehe!) if to even an absolute degree! I still believe that former Prez. Rawlings still has questions to answer 'the people' for example on his leadership. Period!...period(do i have to repeat? or do i know what it means to say period? heeehe!). because pal...the actions or inactions or these folks affects 'the people'! false?
  
  So if it's true that this man Tsatsu whose name translates into 'house-fly' in Ga (the man is not a Ga man(he's Ewe)--funny how language plays tricks) is guilty then he must account...but he must be treated fairly by the dEmAnDs of the constitution...else let's go back into time and just roast him up without bothering whether he's guilty or innocent!
  
  I've heard people on the side of the ruling NPP say that he is luck to have had his time in court...and he should be grateful 'cos gone are the days when others did not have the opportunity and yet were punished! it's true...but question is: is the constitution based on luck? why this rubbish outburst ouT of GENUINE HURT?
  
  For me the funny thing is that these NPP guys are smelling terribly bad with questions hanging over the president himself as leader and only God knows how man of them would be thrown into jail if this law is maintained on our books when The Time Is Come For Reckoning!
  
  and one other thing irks...they throw the opposition folks into jail and then the president turns round acting some Father Christmas and releases them under some pretending amnesty! and he is thanked for doing so! how so not cheap!
  
  may we wake up to WisdomTime pal!
  
  
  Travel-n-See-In-Photography:
  
  I'm glad pal, that i'm back home after some niceTime in Rabat, Maroc. I bet the way the media portrays this folks is fake! Forget the religion...i'm no believer in it...none...They are nice people! simple!
  
  well, see below a shot of me trying to take a shot of another folk(not captured)! some very beautiful lady took the shot...actually she caught me unawares! This was at the EMI college where thugs of the IT industry gathered to do knowledge sharing! enjoy!

  JUST ANOTHER PLAIN FOOLISHNESS

   » ‎ novisi
  pAl,
  the world i'm pretty sure is still rotating about it's axis while at the same time tracing it's path of revolution about the sun! True!
  
  and i warn you pal, with love, to sift out the substance from my 'nonsense'. True too, that one!
  
  The Ban:
  so out of 'the nowhere'...yes the nowhere, man, came this foolish outburst! Rid Ghana of non-iodized salt - Prof Lartey LINK
  
  truth is, i've heard it before...some other folks have come out same or at least in similar fashion with ugly cuts and sawings! and what will all that mean if not just another plain foolishness!
  
  i keep wondering whether some just want the fame that comes with such useless shouts or it's just plain ignoramus to a stupid degree or what? or is it all a deliberate attempt to confuse the folks with legislation to guarantee a selfish inflow of donor funds into some private pockets or some cut of a deal from some big industry tricksters? Pal, i mean what is it?
  
  so there we go...ban it...ban it...ban it...! and then all the people will no more suffer iodine deficiency! period...absolute, right? what happens on the other side of the coin? or we don't have to care? how just so foolish this other plain foolishness! huh!
  
  Foolishness @ The Peak:
  so we have come to know pal that iodine is essential a mineral in the diet of man for sustenance! There are too many materials out there to check out so i don't have to bother you with a GIGANTIC recap of some of the SCIENCE thought in primary school.
  
  but why would someone like this prof man who is supposed to have read so well the books decide that the way to go is to call for a ban on the consumption of natural salt? is it a lack of appreciation of the fact that life is not as simple as they want to fix it and for that matter every minute detail of the biological system is important? is it just a case of reading and subsequently reciting what one has read to an audience without applying any logical sense! that is foolishness!
  
  so ' whot '? so he means someone like me should be prepared to go underground to get this 'stuff' (as then salt will soon become a part of the 'stuff' family), because i will tell him straight that i will not bow to any such illogical restriction on my diet.
  
  SALT:
  for me Salt is one of those things that give the world charm! taste it and you will have the salty taste, right? or wrong?
  
  the reason why the attempt is being made to carve out salt as incomplete without the addition of some industrially processed iodine is one that intrigues my scrotum into a funny ball still with blessings!
  
  Check Points:
  so who says we all need extra iodine? elementary science teaches that iodine is required in only little quantities to keep the body going. so why the noiSe? if i'm well and ok within the limits why must i be forced to consume more when that MAY even result in abuse?
  
  what this prof should be doing is for him to launch a search and help party that would go out there into the woods and see who really needs this extra iodine because of some critical condition so that they are supplied with it. it's obvious that the prof and the likes of him want the easy way out without bothering what the after effects will be! foolish again!
  
  it's not every body who needs this extra iodine...we already get iodine from sea foods also! and the non-iodized salt is enough for some! Some crazy head like mine should shout to this prof man to stop attempting to put us all in one box! At least he has not come to do a test on me!
  
  another vital question to ask is: what is the source of this iodine that they are adding to the salt? organic or inorganic? The whole world has come to suffer so much out of senseless consumption of chemicals as medication...drugs! I like my body to remain as natural in readiness to return to MOTHER EARTH as much as possible...don't force me to do otherwise....stupid? or yes!
  
  Serious Letter:
  pal, and i want to warn you again: if this man manages to have his foolish wish translated into my restriction, i would write a VERY SERIOUS LETTER LIKE THIS ONE to the powers that be including my humble self (i have power too which i'm not unaware of) to rethink!
  
  peace!

  obama - yes we can

   » ‎ novisi
  so a black man's son becomes the nominee for a major party-Democratic Party and a very possible president of the USA!
  
  history:
  pal, some say this is historic (and it's true to the extent of the books)...yeah...yeah...some say they never saw it coming...huu...huu! well, what do i say? i say no big deal...i saw it coming LINK huh!? you don't understand right? how could a black man like me like obama not be top over the hills for history made? and then i will tell you by repeating 'it's no big deal man!'
  
  so let all those who are suddenly making huge mountains out of this 'history' shut-up. and they claim that it's a pointer to the blacks that the US gives equal opportunities....(knowing well how far better it is compared to most other parts of the world) i still ask: really?
  
  for me all this thing about history will be null if not 'and void' if this history is not translated into a meaningful action towards transforming the equal or at least close to equal distribution of resources in the world for the use of man...if it's not geared towards making the world a better place for all and so on so that we don't have the kinds of bush who would have the guts to even stand before proper thinking human beings! it will all mean nothing if the it's not geared toward achieving a more racially world...where the collour of the skin doesn't matter and is actually made a non-issue... let us make the collour of the skin a non-issue when it comes to rights and responsibilities! i mean i should not even care if some fool calls me a monkey because i'm black...i would always raise the bar above such folly because the stakes are far higher now!
  
  work:
  i thank God that obama himself is not making too much out of this 'history' thing like some are doing LINK and i'm happy too that he sounds unifying-that is the spirit...There's a lot of work to be done and i hope that obama quickly realises that...and he sure appears to because if i were him this is exactly what i will be doing LINK
  
  and just before you get me all wrong...i'm not saying it's not important that this is seen as historic but i'm simply saying that let us focus on the essentials and leave out that which doesn't really matter! period.
  
  what is this?
  amidst the quest of motives and all, i find this rather funny but isn't this still news: LINK

  We do
  We miscalculate
  
  Just yesterday
  I saw the clouds gather
  And I was so sure
  it was going to rain

  The other day too
  I woke up to a clear sky
  And I thought I could take
  a walk in the morning sun
  
  But the rain came...
  It poured!
  
  So we miscalculate
  We do
  We humans
  In all our limitations
  We make mistakes
  
  But when we do
  We must try and try again

  tHREE Friends, pOLITICS and I

   » ‎ novisi
  pal,
  
  I promised that I would be telling you reasons why I think the NPP must be kicked out of power as a matter of course and more -> principles still...no party collours here!
  
  World Food Shortage (this one not on NPP):
  Do you believe that there really is this new disease called 'food shortage in the whole world including our dear old motherland Ghana?' They (yes they) say that India and THE PEOPLE'S republic of China alone are consuming all the food there is coupled with some new craze change in priority...feeding the vehicles' tanks before the belly of man -> biofuel.
  
  Last Sunday was one such Christians' sabbath. We quaffed HARD into the night! Jerry, Albert, Kwame and I. And with some meat and more meat to spice, Politics formed a large part of the menu.
  
  NPP POLICIES:
  So we tabled the NPP administration's cards as so far as is- Ghana School Feeding Programme (GSFP), Natioanal Youth Employment Programme, LEAP and all the general.
  
  I argued as strongly as i could. I was up against a strong force of three. jUst like a lot of the politicians talking plenty around from both minority and majority camps (even the CJA thinks it's a good programme as they expose the rot therein) my friends almost sang a chorus in unison by stating that the Ghana School Feeding Programme was a very good policy but for the corruption. I DISAGREED and I disagree! I STATED LOUDLY THAT IT WAS A bogus PROGRAMME THAT MUST BE SCRAPPED....debatable still...and my basis is not even because of the LOOTING the birth of this so called innovation has brought unto us. No!
  
  
  I think that the GSFP is bogus for the following reasons:
  First, it passes only for a white-washing of the more fundamental problems we face - equity in distribution of our resources. The GSFP certainly is not focused on feeding 'only orphans' (which I would not be against). It is feeding all manner of Ghanaian children whose parents certainly are engaged in some income generating activities. So why must our government decide to take responsibility for feeding school children under the pretext of a crazy sort that that would increase enrollment?
  
  The reality is that workers in the country are not being paid. if they are; then they are not being paid living wages. We have a situation where only a few fat-bellied ones who think they have divine rights are either apportioning to themselves more than they need or are thieving from everybody else and living the rest constantly poor and poor. So what is it that could be innovative about disabling a full man or woman and taking over his/her harvest only for one to come conning and pretending to be the most caring and would therefore take the responsibility of feeding the yield to the now disabled man or woman. What else is in shame's name? What more could be done to demean the very value of man or woman?
  
  That is not all. For surely the fed may be so deceived into believing that there suddenly came a 'Father Christmas' who brought them food so much so that they the fed may just as well become voiceless. Pal, if you don't get the language I choose to speak then think about this: Can you for any reason decide to express yourself by deciding to speak against anyone in whose mouth your fingers dangerously rest? How well do we empower our citizens with such a feeding programme when should have instead been seeking to correct the real errors in the system?
  
  PARTY COLLOURS:
  Well so pal, I made my points. Kwame stated that the programme had fed thousands of our children and therefore it was good. I responded by saying how so cheap! Albert hanged onto the fact that it was still a good policy but for the corruption in there. My response was that corruption cannot define the programme necessarily. There are good number of other areas of our economy where corruption rides high. Corruption is BAD. But without it the GSFP will still be BOGUS. To me it is just a white-washing of the rot in which we find ourselves. If you shit on yourself and shit-smell leads and follows you, no matter the fineness of dress you don, the smell would still follow and lead and walk side-by-side you really BAD. You would still stink!
  
  Sadly enough, Jerry chose at one point to collour me for me. He said I was a member of the opposition NDC because I was condemning a policy of the NPP led government. I felt sad. NoT BecauSe of the association to the NDC. But because I did not say I was speaking for any party. Not even the CPP for whom i have some soft spot. I thought that after spending time to study some logic in formal education one must be able to de-link collours from such open debates. Moreso, it was only Jerry who introduced the collours and gladdenly nobody supported him on that line. It was meant to be a very open debate. So my response to jerry was a question: "should I tag you NPP simply because you support their GSFP policy?". He said no!
  
  ClOSSING REMARKS:
  Pal, we must be seeking to deal with the root causes of our problems and resist anyone who chooses to give us reliefs only to postpone our never ending pains. I will still continue to tell you more why I think the NPP must be kIcked Out to save us some space to rethink!
  
  As for the shortage of food in the whole world issue. I say don't believe them for they no not what they are talking about. Do they know how much food goes to waste out of negligence or stupidity on the part of the very they?
  
  and oh... some few weeks back a couple of our sycophantic news papers (example) reported that our dear one the Kuffused was up at 41st on some non-existent list compiled by Time As the 100 most influential people in the world. Another non-issue if you ask me, but Pal, just check the 'true' TIME 100 list out and pick out our dear Kuffused...i think i can't locate him here. can you?
  
  Stay Tuned!

  pal pal,
  
  yO...yO...yO,     nuf tins aguan in me sight!
  
  
  click...click...flash!
  The coming of Sarkozy in France has brought a lot of interesting mirroring of the SAME old world still...! imagine that our first lady (NAME WITHHELD) was once a strip-model posing at one time T for the cameras! jumbo! The first lady of France made the news this week (April 11, 2008) when a 'click...click...flash' photo of her 'as she came' into the world sold for a hot $91,000, about 30 times more than anticipated according to 'the people' - (don't ask me who are the people). don't pal! 
  But pal pal, the girl is sweet and sexy...i tell you...just trust the photo...only that it was taken many years ago before she became first lady... The husband Mr. Sarkozy who divorced an earlier wife only to land the picture-sexy Carla's office reacts that it's a private matter to them...no problem! but the picture remains a popular shot on the internet at least.
  NOW BE WARNED... THE PHOTOS 'you are seeing' HERE THROUGH THE EYES OF www.cnn.com and www.myjoyonline.com ARE VERY SEXY IN NATURE AND MAY NOT BE 'edible enough' FOR YOUR VIEWING...ENJOY!
  
  
  PICTURE ONE: www.cnn.com presentation: clearly Carla hid little and cnn had little more to hide)...see below:

  issues:
  Pal, let word go out there to the aspiring presidential candidates to stop wasting our ears! what is this thing about 'ISSUES'? some just keep hummering without substance that their campaigns are focused on issues and not attacks on personalities or insults! FINE!!! but what are issues? is an insult not an issue? are personal attacks not issues? Some of these ILLOGICAL throw-abouts must be made to bounce back into their faces haaaaaaaaaard! OR DO THEY MEAN TO SAY 'CERTAIN ISSUES'? (and still a legitimate question: what 'certain' issues?). 
  This thing brings to mind another crazy one... some journalist parading our streets think, claim and want us to call them INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISTS. what is the meaning of that? the question I ask is: what is it about journalism that is not investigative? FOOLISHNESS STILL continues!
  yO...yO...yO!

  MATTERS OF PRINCIPLE

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,
  
  the word PRINCIPLE gives me erection hardcore.
  
  I've been following the US presidential bid for the democrats' nomination more than i have the race downtown here where I think the Kuffused's NPP MUST JUST BE KICKED OUT OF OFFICE AS A MATTER OF COURSE AND MORE.
  
  So there was all the noise about Obama's Pastor's 'not-palatable' comments which made Obama to give one of the most -if not the most- beautiful renditions on the issue of race and discrimination that the human race has ever witnessed- I dare say!
  
  
  CHOICES:
  
  So as beautiful as Obamas rendition was... I ignored Hillary Clinton who chose initially not to comment on the issue. But she turns around to make silly comments saying if she was Obama she would have left the 'church' because though we cannot choose our who our fathers or grandmothers are we can choose who we want as our Pastors. Silly Hillary, was and is my response. Did she leave her husband after he admitted 'bonking' Lewinsky; to which issue their own kid Chelsea cannot even have the decency to address. WHERE LIES HERE PRINCIPLE. or can she not choose who to marry?
  
  Later Obama gets asked about the issue in an interview after Hillary's acting silly and CHEAP only for me to get disappointed with his response. Obama said he would have left the church had Rev. Wright not retired. Oh no...I screamed. After telling us that he couldn't disown Rev. Wright just as he couldn't disown his own white-grandmother who also held racially bias stances, I expected Obama to have just (if just to shame the silly Clinton) reiterated his comments. Or he could have EVEN decided to give the Clinton more lessons on discrimination by telling her you just don't disown a spouse for example just because you disagree or feel embarrassed by his/her action.
  
  
  ZIMBABWE:
  
  Are we about seeing the last of 'the-man-dem-call Mugabe'? I would miss him if we do. Not that I'm not aware about his human right records and for how his achieved uneccessary longevity in office but because gave man food for thought when it comes to africa's relationship with the west (West?). My prayer is that the election results be declared without any machinations to spark another Kenya! My prayer too is that Ghanaians are listening and watching.
  
  
  BACK HOME:
  
  When Ndoum was chosen to lead Kwame Nkrumah's CPP I stated that I never felt comfortable with the decision and I still don't because the man is doing everything to prove me right. I wonder If this guy would have gotten the courage to run for elections in a place like the USA? (not becuase the US is super but because the ones who have questions to answer are pinned for all to see). But this 'moustache-ful' man is running our towns, villages and (cities?) with so much questions hanging around him bordering on fraud and he is not being forced to answer! Where lies his integrity! Nkrumah must be weeping maa-maaa-maaaa in his grave! Damirifa Due...!
  
  THE DAILY GRAPHIC: This paper is state-owned and funded by the taxpayers money! so why all the shit they have been publishing lately? In esterdays edition (Tuesday, 1st April 2008 - April Fools' Day edition) we are fooled with a false headline that the leader of the NDC has made a choice for running-mate only for the man Prof. Atta Mills to deny the story in the Graphic. Is the paper becoming a publisher of gossip without even stating so? Today's edition captures something that passes for shame saying Atta Mills says he's not yet decided on running-mate. The Graphic and the its Editor Blewu and Ayeboafo and all must sit up. They are stinking real bad. CREDIBILITY is important if they have forgotten.
  
  CJA: Thank God for the CJA. We need more like them to put GOVERNMENT OFFICERS in check. Today they are putting allegations of corruption in the 'school feeding programme' in the face of the Kuffused who says if you don't bring evidence he will not act on corruption. I wait to see what the president will do this time... but pal don't mind me on this one because I don't expect much from the man whose own former party chairman accuses him of collecting and distributing 'kick-backs'. What an 'alleged thief' we have for president.
  
  may we as humans continue to live as humans.
  
  ciao pal.

  A CLASSIC ONE

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal,
  INTROI should be fuming the hell and heavens out of me but today I had a good laugh to crown the day.
  what insensitivity being shown by our Kuffused and his bunch:
  1. The malnourished heads are buying two presidential planes under the guise of securing tools for the air-force. 
  2. The same malnourished heads are about to tax poor-man-ghanaman for communicating with fellow humanS with mobile phones...and we are not even sure if internet usage and other means of communicating apart from mobile phones will be taxed. 
  All these are being pushed down our throats at a time when there is every indication our ENERGY CRISES has hardly been touched while WATER CRISES too has hit us hard on the buttocks to expose the depth of seriousness of the state of the kwashiokor-attacked brains of the kuffused and his bunch. I have not even mentioned yet the continuous increment in petroleum prices that go a long way to tell how just so far u could go in a day. Utility tariffs are headed for the skies.
  So what is it that these malnourished heads see or feel that the rest of us don't feel. how so contrasting do their brains work so much so that they would not even listen to the rest of us. That one called Andrew Awuni who happens to have gotten wings as the president's secretary or whatever his position is has the guts to tell us that we should stop having the poverty mentality... and i guess that would lead us to see suddenly the drop of manner from heaven to make us so rich that we won't have to mind if the president goes to purchase a presidential boat to ferry his ass on a good or bad day! and makes me want to say how so foolish of him...stupid.
  
  HAHAHA:
  A friend told me today that we should have the newspaper headlines screaming "Talk Tax Today...Sex Tax Tomorrow". A CLASSIC ONE.
  I nearly broke my ribs pal. but come to think of it. Sooner when the brains-without-nourishment realise the sexual-density height of our folks, then one could only imagine what next they won't introduce. Your guess is as bad as mine!
  enjoy!

  THIS IS SHIT

   » ‎ novisi
  pAL deAR,
  
  I think news is what reads but this one is shit. trust me!
  
  Our crazy Kuffused and his bunch have adopted another foolish one. The folks are aiming guns at the public and driving past at rocket-shoot speed with insanity all over in the city....
  
  Have you seen the convoy of the Kuffused lately? I don't know if it's a panic move--after the senseless "accident" (that particular one was simply avoidable) he HAD himself subjected to--to have GUNS now pointing at the PEACE OR VIOLENCE LOVING ghanaian public as he is being driven around town. To ward off what i don't know!
  
  I saw them recently at 37 and it really looked like the guys are loosing their senses. Two vehicles--one in from of the president's ride and the following--on each you have two millitary men with HEAVY AND OBVIOUSLY FULLY LOADED GUNS--one man aims at the public on one side of the road while the other does same in the opposite direction.
  
  Don't tell me the life of the president is too important to warrant such foolishness...Don't and just don't... What would you be telling me should it be that out of all things that can happen in this world; an ant by some beautiful design finds it way around the scrotum of one or two of these shoot-to-kill-ready security men and suddenly decides to take a bite while the convoy passes by a crowd of traffic jammed public; so that if the man decides to secure his scrotum too by instinctive movement which somehow results in an accidental pulling of the trigger before he could reach his balls for the rescue....what happens then?
  
  If this was the land of Afganistan I would understand for the abundance of opium. If this was the land of Iraq, I would still understand. But this is the land called Ghana and though I am not one of those who 'fantastically' pass the country too peaceful for all the boiling points dotted around, I believe this nonsensical showing of muscles of the RAMBO or the COMMANDO is to say the least foolish and it stinks!!! SHIT !
  
  PS.
  and we have come full circle again...and not only so...at a time when water supply to homes accross the nation is lacking at alarming proportions...we are being told that the government is acquiring a presidential jet to add "beauty" to the presidency. enjoY paL. enjoy!
  
  cheers!

  MYSTERIOUS MYSTERIES

   » ‎ novisi
  Pal mine,
  So it came to past. 'ker ker ni egbashi ba ho'....(same in Ga)....literally pal.
  
  But funny tins (things???) are happening now and again like ever (never???) before! sweetly so some and sour so many more pal. so and just so!!!
  
  Number one...
  I've been out of this side of the world for a while but i finally got the tickling to jolt me to ERECTION up and straight! In this land called Ghana;by some artificial dreaming; we have come to be woken up suddenly by some WILDFIRE FIGURES. These numbers are said to have germinated or so i think to put it because of all the jig-saw-edged stories being thrown about.
  
  AND WHO DO U BELIEVE? The opposition NDC political party have cried foul about some out of the world numbers that have germinated like i put it in the records of the Electoral Commissions Records. This presents a quick image of the EC's records as one of a picture of a KWASHIORKOR suffering child having a skinny body but a protruding tummy (stomach???)....or no....belly! heeeheeee pal. say heee...talk about a malnourished EC's records.
  
  The EC is insisting that though they truly and properly supplied the NDC with the records they are challenging the content as put out by the NDC. I say let us put it to the test. let both parties find a middle and fair ground to present the records for verification and authentication.
  
  The issue simply is that of all the 10 regions in Ghana 9 of them have an average growth of voter registrations resting around 6, 7 and 8 percentages. But one Super region alone shows an average growth for it's constituencies to be around an astronomical 110 percentage according to the NDC. charming huh! no beautiful???
  
  This is certainly a serious matter (matter refers to the whole issue and not just what according to NDC but also any logical conclusions that need to be drawn) that could just make Ghana happen in Ghana for those who think that Kenya cannot happen in Ghana since they may prefer that we put it that Kenya happened and Kenya! say heee pal....heeee! Elections is in December...the records better be put straight.
  
  Number Two...
  A foolish one too...And our Jack fellow de Kuffused has decided against all odds to go ahead and re-nominate Anani the one who goes to have extra-marital called affair and produces a child that the wife is ready to accept alright and dares to come tell us how so beneficial that was to us all as a nation still as the minister for Roads (or 'ot is the portfolio). do i make any sense with this long snake? if not really then so is the picture of the Kuffused situation regarding Anani.
  
  Against the backdrop of a noise of 'we have the men', Anani resigns from his position as minister after having been found to have indulged in inappropriate acts but the Kuffused one keeps that ministerial position empty after a number of reshuffles and appoinments...AND WHAT COULD ONE EXPECT MORE THAN THE RETURN OF THE ANANI. now we hear Parliament will pass him. and how so foolish...
  
  I'm not against a man who thinks he needs more than his wife to produce children...not even when a man makes a woman bear him children without marrying her...but where a minister of state has to account to the people and we are told that the man has questions to answer as a result of mating with some woman while on assignment then levelheadedness at least must prevail.
  
  This whole saga just stinks...makes me think that the Kuffused is just tossing us all about a so called rule-of-what-law-I-don't-know! The guy is joking with us all...There is no demonstration of concern for the people... They twist and turn us about illogical technicalities that amount to nothing only to have their way...foolishly they smile.
  
  Pal, Today too I pray for Obama...not that I think he is black so that really counts...for me that is a non-issue...I pray for Obama because I just have the feeling...my feelings may be misplaced and that is fair...but I just feel of all the candidates presenting themselves for the US elections, he stands out as one who will bring hope not only to America but to the whole world as PEACE is a scarce commodity still...
  
  Yes we can...
  
  Hope pal mine!

  N HERE COMES D BUSH

   » ‎ novisi
  pal,
  they say he is arriving tomorrow.
  
  i just want to tell him he is not welcome...though he is free to go to anywhere on this earth.
  
  
  this man is no different from the saddams, hitlar's or Osama himself who only believe in perpertuating violence in the name of security!
  
  he stinks bad and i wished that our own kuffused would not be leaving in fools' paradise by thinking he was equalling the former prez JJ's experience of hosting Clinton the former US prez too. HE SHOULD BE LOOKING BEYOND THAT.
  
  but so far there's little to look forward to as already still in the name of security after creating a more unsafe world, our police are telling us that we should look forward to road blocks and swallow inconveniences as the man who continues largely to make the world more unsafe comes to town.....how so stupid...
  
  well...why didn't the government just declare a holiday to all so foolishly...
  
  let this bush come and go....
  
  hopefully Obama brings us a change we can believe in while we see the back of our own Kuffused one...
  
  cheers pal.

  YES WE CAN THE OBAMA WAY

   » ‎ novisi
  PAL dear mine,
  
  i've been following the US presidential race and all the craze...I've fallen in love with obama and i have to admit it now or never.
  
  Today is what they call the super tuesday...whatever...point is, for me obama presents a good opportunity for the US of A to do a good damaged-image repair which they are in dire need of. The Bush one has only succeeded in messing up really good and it's time to play the unifier, balancer, cleaner, and all that the US of A needs to bring back the waning peoples spirit.
  
  i love obama not because he is black...I LOVED CLINTON AND ALL THE LEWINSKING...true and i missed the opportunity to see him live when he visited Ghana back in the days because i was in boarding school atop the Kwawu mountains. I DON'T HAVE SAME LOVE FOR THE BUSH ONE. that guy just stinks so bad...so he is coming to Ghana shortly and i just wish he didn't even dream it but for our own Kuffused mennnnnnnnnnn!
  
  So i love Obama...HE REALLY SOUNDS LIKE TRANSCENDING RACE AND GENDER while clinton is playing on the gender issue that she will be the first female American prez... and what is the use of that apart from it making the bookers note it down in the pages of history...I don't think it's bad to be a woman at all though i can't see myself transforming into one if i could...but lets get real...for example, down here in Ghana Akuffo Addo claims he will make history by being the one to carry NPP into a thirt straight vitory...so he should be voted for? how so cheap a bait to throw at us 'FOOLS'. foolish indeed.
  
  A woman president must be a good president and so must a man president and so the likes of the Bush one and our downtown Kuffused are just too inane to have. They only end up cheapening the cause of the good of humanity!
  
  WELL SO I LOVE OBAMA, pal and i hope u do too. He tells you WE NEED CHANGE AND WE CAN CHANGE and YES WE CAN and you just can't help but feel the sincerity in him. Some say he is not experienced...I THINK THAT IS FOOLISH...to put is mildly. I dare to say Clinton has no experience as President so how is she more experienced? because she kept the Man Clinton's bed warm 'while he was one of the finest presidents of the modern world' while the man himself kept aside the LEWINSKY?
  
  it is funny how people talk about experience...we must be more concerned about who is more likely to provide the needed change? HAVING SAID ALL THAT i'm not blind to all the other factors that have been 'created' to put Obama down...they say he is black...and some white Americans and Latinos and the rest just haven't realised yet that Martin Luther King Jr., had a dream.
  
  Pal, i dare say Obama is what America needs for a good change at this moment!
  
  and YES WE CAN!

  REST IN 'ASOMDWE' AMIDST ALL THE FOOTBALL

   » ‎ novisi
  PAL PAL,
  
  i've missed you more than you've missed me i know....i just do
  it's been due to a combination of so many factors....blogger's spam issue....time for man....football...Asamoah-Gyanism...security....debriefing...stowaways...asomdwe...Kenya...war-drums...health....death....and all the nonsense man...
  
  so where do i start....? i don't know...but the national security capo got fired by his excellency the kuffused and after some very unintelligent exercise of power by They That Be for some so called debriefing exercise, the man has taken to his heels......Ghanaians must be worried over the fact that in an era where we have people screaming proclamations almost to the effect as if they gave birth to democracy we could have such stupid show of machoism by They That Think They Are...very stupid man. and what is it that the Kuffused so much like mad wants to prevent from spilling into the public domain....some say he is caught in the BLUE in between the sheets with some womam.....oh man...woe unto thee!
  
  The man Kennedy Agyapong of the NPP has responded to Atta Mills calls for the prevention of the Kenya case in Ghana by sounding that should there be a break of confusion the former president and all in his house as well as associates will be the first people to be killed. what more do a non-manupulated police service need to invite this man for threatening a man's life? pal, under this same government by the kuffused and his gang, a group of people in Kumasi held a press conference and threatened the life of a journalist called Kwesi Pratt....NOTHING WAS DONE... so i'm not surprised that Kennedy Agyapong continues free on our streets without the police haven questioned him. And that is a man accusing another of beating war drums simply because he called for Ghana to avoid the Kenya situation.
  
  so it came to past that the football started moving from one foot to another and Asamoah Gyan had to incur the wrath of some merciless and unfair supporters of the national team the Black Stars...i love to see the Black Stars play...though I'M NOT TOO FUSSY ABOUT BEING A GHANAIAN since I BELIEVE IN A HIGHER CALLING TO BE A HUMAN BEING OR AT LEAST AN AFRICAN but not some artificial creation that has been forced on us...point is, it doesn't matter that i bear a Ghanaian tag....i love Cameroon too because of Eto'o's play...and i'm growing to like Ivory Coast because of the man Yaya Toure (not really Drogba and don't be surprised)...OH...i just want to add that i love Senegal too....not because of any footballer but because of Youssou N'dour and his music....and there is Angelic Kidjo of Benin...
  
  So i love the Black Stars alright...and it would surprise many to know that one of the players i like in the team include Asamoah Gyan. He plays well. simple as that...and people should be rational when they want to rain insults on him...i don't mind insulting a man when you want or love to but i think it must be well placed...for whatever sake the guy is our top scorer of goals...he scored our first goal at the World Cup that will forever remain history made...
  
  BUT ALL SAID...i thank God that our kuffused found it wise to call on Ghanaians to calm the pressure on the poor boy for missing some chances at goal. and for once i tot the kuffused deserved of me to call him by his real name Kuffour...thought i did not think all the comparisons he made to himself was well placed...he better be prepared that he's been a shame and nothing short of an accident on us all who have the Tag Ghanaian.
  
  And some where in the popular stands appeared the old JJ Rawlings at the opening ceremony of the CAN 2008 to thunderous cheers. Interesting...the man wants nothing to do with the kuffused....and sad too because i remember very well that while in power he once invited then opposition leader the kuffused from somewhere in a crowd to join him on a dais somewhere in the country Ghana...i remember seeing that gesture on television as a young kid getting to understand politics and i was wowed! today the table has turned and the man in charge, i guess does not know the meaning of what power he thinks he has at his disposal....what a shame...!
  
  My Question is: why strip a former president (be he even the devil himself who some want to paint that he did treat his predecessor Liman in worse manner) of his courtesies because he criticises your government and to the extent that you accuse him of plotting to overthrow you without proof and still expect him to give you a good photo opportunity just because you have visitors coming to your shame... clearly the man JJ continues to enjoy popular support and he had more of it in the popular stands to the shame of the Kuffused and his gang...
  
  and the health of Atta Mills the prof still continues to be an issue while the man is demonstrating fitness by walking around in a popular style called door-to-door campaigning for votes...Today finally some say he is dead while he comes online live to speak to Joy FM news night presenters from faraway in the South of Africa....what a way to force sickness on a man...! maybe some just wished the man was resting in Asomdwe as he preaches or Peace (RIP)...
  
  and there are allegations against the man Akuffo Addo and all we here are that he wont respond...hahahahaha...some say he is on crack cocaine and has gone for detoxification...A no body but the one man Kofi Wayo has challenged the man Akuffo Addo to put him self to the test for all to see whether truly of falsely he has been a good user of drugs but the man is not budging...he MUST not...but fact is that he is not budging...simple...
  
  Time will tell...
