Mr. Kwesi Pratt, the so-called mismanaging Editor of the No-sight newspaper has tongue-lashed Ghanaian politicians labelling them as being “rotten” and “useless” and always having the penchant of engaging in needless matters that will not profit the electorate.
>>> Pratt! ask yourself the last time you contributed something sensible to Ghanaian people. It's an open secret in Ghana that Kwesi Pratt is paid for running from Radio Station to Radio Station talking nonsense to gaining cheap popularity and also propagate for the NDC party.
Speaking as a panellist on Radio Gold’s Alhaji and Alhaji programme, the money conscious and greedy useless journalist Kwesi Pratt was at a loss like a mad dog to why pertinent issues that needed to be discussed in the country had been relegated to the background, with the Ghanaian politician going on about irrelevant issues.
>>> The hypocrite journalist, Pratt instead of directing his (senseless) point to the Government is turning to blame the Opposition party.
“The Ghanaian political elite is totally rotten and useless, they have nothing to offer the people of this country. When they talk, they don’t make sense yet they don’t realise that they are not making sense. Instead of concentrating to the needs of the people, they sit and say anything...this is incredible. Our politicians should wake up…,” he said.
>>> While Pratt is deeply sleeping he is asking others to wake up, the stomach journalist will go out there for money sake to talk any weed just for talking sake.
He accused members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of being deficient when it comes to understanding basic economic principles, but always having something ill to say about every government policy. According to him, when it comes to issues bordering on inflation, budget and other economic issues, the NPP is simply ignorant and usually speak from an uninformed position.
>>> I wonder why somebody like Kwesi Pratt, i mean such a greedy so-called selfish journalist can open his mouth to accuse others for not understanding some basic economic principles. All what he can understand is nonsense talk for money.
“These people don’t understand basic economic concepts, if they don’t understand common basic economic principles, what are they going to do if we offer them power…what have they to offer? They complain of the president not doing anything and when the President goes to commission boreholes and other projects, they blame him of commissioning projects which were constructed by the NPP…what is wrong with these people?…the reality is much different from what they see…”
>>> There is nothing wrong with opposition Party/government criticising the government in power. The only thing that is wrong here is a greedy and a camouflage journalist like Kwesi Pratt who is senselessly making empty noise in the country.
Kwesi Pratt continued, “the NPP should understand that they are in the disadvantage because of the fact that they are in opposition and so if they decide to indulge in name calling and slogans, the government will beat them even if they claim they (government) is not doing anything”.
>>> This very last paragraph shows vividly that Pratt's I.Q. can never be higher than 35%.
