It’s that simple". One thing I appreciate about living in present-day Ghana has been democracy that allows freedom of expression and the strength of the fourth estate. We cannot revert back to the dark days when things were different. We have come too far.Abena Serwaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05888021677219851484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-8165571239367172522012-01-15T13:11:42.681+00:002012-01-15T13:11:42.681+00:00Yes, no condemnation without evidence.

In the end they create more problems for themselves and those bosses. The hell of it is that they are hardly, if ever, punished. So that if this guy gets demoted, or even some months in prison, by the same outfit, and perhaps the same boss he thought he was pleasing, they'd think thrice when the chance to slap-slap arise again.ImageNationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06021414643103601330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-40581213471345895412012-01-14T21:03:07.306+00:002012-01-14T21:03:07.306+00:00Neanderthals!
