Character Assassination of JDM in the Airbus Corruption Scandal......Dr. H. Kwame Afaglo



Character Assassination of JDM in the Airbus Corruption Scandal....Dr. H. Kwame Afaglo



Am surprised and disgusted that some learned folks in NPP and in government of Ghana erroneously opted to malign JDM and asking him to resign as the flag bearer of NDC, over the Airbus corruption scandal.

 Let me ask those learned folks if they ever remember their Jurisprudence 404 with its fundamental underpinning being, _one is innocent until proven guilty_?

 Why in 2020 should we allow ourselves to repeat the mistakes of travesty of justice that did plague the world some centuries back?

 The issue of Airbus corruption and Ogyakrom (GH) is before an investigations team, so a little patience would be needed and the actual names of the coded language will become known. 

 If the main investigators in their legal wisdom opted to use codes instead of names in heir report that should advice us in  Ogyakrom of the hurdle ahead in using names at an unverified end, so not to vilify, malign, shame and make another loose respect before the publics  that he deals with.

 _Just a slight but related diversification here_
_Once upon a time in a secondary school, an item  was stolen and a shred face student was named as the culprit just because the claimant thinks he saw his back at the crime scene. This shrewd faces student was hooted at by almost every student including the tutors such that he has to drop out._

 _Few months after, in another incidence of a dimming hall scramble over meals one acquired the other of being the thief instead of the shrewd faced student._

 _What a miscarriage of justice and harm to the personality of the innocent._

 _Fairness being God’s handiwork, the shrewd face student after dropping school got a job as an IT apprentice and as the years went by he rose to be the head of IT with industry customized softwares_

 *Generically, if NPP folks aren’t cautious, they will end up making a martyr out of JDM who is a regular bloke seeking a comeback to power*

 _All things works for good for those who love the Lord_

 Please fellows, it is prudent to use codes and await the actual names to be provided by UK Serious Fraud Office in this Airbus corruption case, than character assassinate JDM just because his opponents tag him as corrupt, they repeated it over and over without he countering, which later gained currency and led to his defeat in 2016 elections.

 Innocent until proven guilty
Dr. H. Kwame Afaglo

NPP And NDC Playing "Chaskele" With EC... Rev Dr Worlanyo Mensah

  NPP And NDC Playing "Chaskele"  With EC... Rev Dr Worlanyo Mensah Tensions between Ghana's Electoral Commission (EC), National Democratic Congress (NDC), and New Patriotic Party (NPP) have escalated over alleged discrepancies in the 2024 voter register. Rev Dr Samuel Worlanyo Mensah, vice presidential candidate for the All People's Congress (APC), economist and a lecture at Wisconsin university Accra, has warned that the NDC and NPP's actions during the limited voter registration and special transfer of vote exercise have compromised the register's integrity. "The two major parties were bussing people from their homes to registration centers, encouraging minors and foreigners to register," Dr. Worlanyo alleged. The NDC recently raised concerns upon receiving the provisional voters register, citing bloated electoral rolls in certain polling stations and alleged attempts by the EC to rig the December 7 polls in favor of the governing NPP. In res...

NPP Government Shortchanges Cocoa Farmers: A Closer Look at the Discrepancies....Twifo Atti-Morkwa NDC Communication Officer.

NPP Government Shortchanges Cocoa Farmers: A Closer Look at the Discrepancies.... Twifo Atti-Morkwa NDC Communication Officer. In recent years, Ghana's cocoa farmers have faced significant disparities in the payments they receive for their hard work. A comparison of current cocoa pricing practices under the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government with those from the era of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) highlights a troubling trend: farmers are being shortchanged, while the government profits disproportionately. As of today, the global market price for cocoa stands at $6,470 per ton. With an exchange rate of Ghc 16.35 to $1, this translates to Ghc 105,784.50 per ton in Ghanaian cedis. Given that one ton comprises 16 bags, this sets the price per bag at Ghc 6,611.00. However, the current government pays cocoa farmers only Ghc 3,000 per ton—just 45.39% of the total price—retaining the remaining 54.61%, or Ghc 3,609.52 per ton. In stark contrast, under the NDC government led by J...

Galamsey Fight: Government Must Tread Carefully to Avoid Judgement Debt -- Rev Dr. Worlanyo Mensah

  Galamsey Fight: Government Must Tread Carefully to Avoid Judgement Debt -- Rev Dr. Worlanyo Mensah The Vice Presidential Candidate of the All Peoples Congress (APC) and renowned economist, Rev Dr. Worlanyo Mensah, has cautioned the government to exercise restraint in addressing illegal mining activities, popularly known as "galamsey." Dr. Mensah warned that hasty actions, driven by calls from Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), could lead to substantial judgement debts. "Many Ghanaians are advocating for drastic measures, including 'shoot and kill' operations and burning excavators at galamsey sites, under the guise of executive directives, which lack legal backing," Dr. Mensah said. While acknowledging the need to stop illegal mining, Dr. Mensah emphasized that such actions must be grounded in law to achieve their intended purpose. "The government must not forget that foreign and local mining firms with prospective mining licenses from the Ministry o...
