TO ALL GHANAIANS THIS IS EVIDENT THAT YOUR ELECTED LEADERS KNOW WHAT TO DO BUT THEY WILL NOT DO IT BECAUSE WE THE CITIZENS DO NOT CARE. WE HAVE TO LET THEM KNOW WE CARE A WHOLE LOT. WE HAVE TO DEMAND BETTER GOVERNANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY FOR ALL GHANAIANS. #OccupyJulorbiHouse 🇬🇭

@SammybonsuTuga @Ghfixthecountry Civic activism is what won Ghana independence and many liberties you enjoy, but of course, in Africa civic activism is a higher calling and is certainly not for konko heads like you!

[Ken kweku Nimo @kenkwekunimo]

Wow!! What a bombshell! This is telling on how misconstrued we are to place pedestals before these empty public officials!

@glennsamm May God bless and protect you bro. We are behind you.
