Half baked leaders!

A leader is a thinking individual and a political being. He must have a trained mind, an analytical disposition and the vision to move his nation forward. Mere ambition is not enough, If wishes were horses, beggars will ride.

Advisers are not enough, since an adviser, should not be a teacher on elementary concepts, which the leader should have been seized of, if he had learned about relevant concepts earlier in life before dabbling in politics, because of lack of any other things to do!!!

Governing a state and its people, should not be reduced to guess-work, petty quarrels, seeking for posts, which the seeker is incapable of handling.

Have we not suffered enough under political dispensations that have not added value to our lives? What is there to consider when the nation is not moving anywhere but slowly towards the precipice? What is there to consider, when personal interests over-ride national interests.

What is there to consider when those, who misgoverned over and over again are re-appointed over and over again.

They hope to rely on borrowed brains, on octogenarian misadvise and the chorus boys at the lunatic fringe, who consider rudeness as virtue and calamitous misjudgment as support. We have seen where all these have landed Ghana.

It will be suicidal to envision another round of Ghanaian absolutism, moral indifference, personal egoism, nationalist irredentism, divided loyalty to the people, hindering feudalism, the reign of demonism, superstition and mindless violence.

Fortunately, the era, when guns shot people to power has passed and so is the installation of people, who are yet to understand statecraft, having no sufficient knowledge of the scholastic systems of governance. That too, will pass soon.

Our people drink from wells, fuel their generators, drive on bad roads, yet pay their taxes, as and when due, will remain an evanescent mystic.

God will continue to overturn, overturn and overturn. We are his people!
