Columnist: Transient Justice
The first rally for Satan(know by his girlfriends as “serpent”) in his bid to rule Ghana will be arriving very soon. Satan is also cooking up a manifesto and, putting together a website to get some donations from some of his fans. His illustrious pedigree includes angelic status for several years before he moved down to his constituency, Hell, were he brought massive development. He is ready to take over and, show Ghana what real development looks like.
Since Atta Mills came to power in 2009 Ghana has been dropping at the speed of gravity. There has been no move on several essential things which are very important for the future of this country. The education system in Ghana is a disgrace in many parts of the country and, the environment children are asked to learn in can only be described as inhumane. There is no push to get high speed internet and, other tools needed to compete in the 21st century into these schools by the Mills administration. The teachers are also underpaid and, constantly insulted by this dirty administration when they insinuate that the teachers reward is in heaven. Luckily Satan has a plan to fix the problem and, has the men to execute it.
In Ghana there are many kids simply walking around the streets aimlessly participating in the petty trade when they should be in school. It is sad to see children who are 90’s babies under the former Regime of JJ Rawlings now, selling ice water and, dog chains on the DIRTY streets of Accra. These kids have no chance to compete in the 21st century. Their peers in the developed world are studying in air conditioned classrooms in quality environments. Where is the urgency by Atta Mills to address this issue? Why is he hanging out at the castle he lives at instead of finding solutions for these kids living in the gutter? Does Atta Mills hate kids? Is that why he feels no compassion for these kids who have been doomed to a life time of misery? Can they sell what they are selling for the next 50 years? Luckily Satan has a plan to solve this issue and, the men to execute it.
In even the best Ghanaian hospitals there are electricity shortages which are killing our people. There are not enough beds and, the Doctors are forced to place patients anywhere they can find space. This includes the floors, street benches etc etc. In a country with a life expectancy which is a PATHETIC 60 years(mainly due to infant mortality), one would think there would be some urgency on the part of this dirty administration to tackle the health care issue. One would think that some of the money he has been dishing out freely as if we are a developed nation would be used to invest in making our hospitals state of the art… The answer is NO! This administration instead in interested in the toilet business, the gold business and, the car business. Satan has a plan to fix this problem and, he has the dedicated men to execute it.
The corrupt regime of Dr. Atta Mills, which lacks both dedication and, quality personnel is no competition for Satan’s team. In Mills government there are small boys like Muntaka, Twumasi-Appiah, Mahama Ayariga, Alfred Vanderpuije who have already shown they are corrupt beyond belief. These guys have no honor, no sense of dignity and, no shame, no pride etc etc . That is, they are willing to steal and break the rules even in the midst of all the misery in Ghana in order to promote self aggrandizement.
Satan is the king of division and confusion and, these are his main political weapons. Politically speaking he tends to attract some of the best investors. In his constituency, Hell, he has many top bankers, many experienced politicians, many former military coup generals. Lastly, he has a lot of money, sure it is blood money but, it is still money!! These are the tools he will use to put Ghana back on track. Satan also knows how to tempt and manipulate thus, he will be able to get massive free aid brought into the country which will subsequently bring development.
Atta Mills, the leader of this team D ( D for Devil), also has no Direction and, no plan to tackle the issues facing the country. He seems content to just keep things as they are because; he thinks there is no one who can kick him out of power. Well, Satan’s campaign team is fired up and, ready to give him a run for his money.
