Election 2028: An Open Letter To Dr. Mahmoud Bawumia Over What Tomas Said in A Pub - Part V
Dear Incoming President of Ghana,
With your permission, Your Excellency, I wish to continue with my epistles I started writing to you couple of weeks ago. I thought I had finished with them until I realize I never mentioned your runningmate factor which is of crucial importance.
As you might have observed reading the previous letters, my major problem as a KNUST SRC presidential candidate was the running mate factor if you really have to make some adjustments as I have indicated in the previous letters.
Although the forest does not change its color to match the chameleon but the chameleon that changes its color to match the forest, and adjusting to my suggestion may not necessarily be germane in terms of winning election 2028, you may have to relook at your choice of runningmate. Just as in respect of the political or campaign slogan you may have to adjust. From “It Is Possible” to “I See A New Ghana”. And perhaps, you might have to change the running mate as well. Perhaps.
The other thing I could not also mention in the previous letters was certain supplications I need to share with you. We could be dealing with advanced level of sorcery and sorcerers, and by the grace of God, we have solution in the Holy Book of Allah: the last Revelation to mankind.
Note that there are four recognized Holy Scriptures in the Qur'an that were revealed to mankind and the Holy Qur'an is only the last and final scripture of God. Viz the Psalms (Zabur), the Torah (Taura), the Gospel (Injil) and the Qur'an.
Likewise, Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) was not the only Messenger and Prophet of God neither was he the founder of Islam but the last and seal of prophet-hood of Islam. And the best five of these Prophets of Islam being Noah (Nuhu), Abraham (Ibrahim), Moses (Musah), Jesus Christ (Issah) and Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Them All). Islam as an Arabic word thus simply means “surrender to God without any coercion but peacefully”. That's why Muslims believe all these religious personalities including Jesus Christ were Muslims. And in Matthew 7:21, Jesus Christ appears to have confirmed this when he said: “Not those who call me Lord! Lord! shall go to heaven but those who do the will of God in heaven they would enter heaven.”
The Arabic word “Muslim” therefore means “doer of God's will”. The point is that, both Muslims and Christians are doers of God's will who submit or surrender their will to the will of God. We may have diverse ways of worshiping the Creator but we have one common root. And we shall each justify why we worshipped the Creator and why a certain path to God. And the last time I checked, that would happen in the divine court of God in the hereafter. As to whether a Christian or Muslim should lead us for our collective prosperity, that takes place here on earth. Hence, the mention of Qur'an and seeking solution from it to counter evil in this open letter should not be mistaken as seeking Sharia law in Ghana. We have a Constitution to be guided by in the governance of our country. And every Muslim must recognize that as a Muslim.
Moving on, if Your Excellency may recall, doves used to land upon Mahama's shoulders during some major national events by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the past. And you don't need a soothsayer to tell you it was not normal. It was magic. Sorcery. The unceremoniously abnormal manner the cedi depreciated under you without any economic explanation was similar to the way Dumsor vanished into cul-de-sac immediately you came to political power. Both were highly suspicious. While Mahama might have used magic to cause the free fall of the cedi, your party while in opposition could have sabotaged the management of the power outages!
Persojally, I believe the letter “M” in Mahama's name could best stand for magic. “MagicHama” or “Magimahama”. And the same magic he could have used to nosedive the cedi under your government, is what has been used to augment the cedi's economically unexplainable appreciation. Of course, there's now GoldBod you have been credited for.
Whether it is magic or GoldBod, it is a promise made by God in the Qur'an that no magician or sorcerer would be successful no matter the excellence he may have attained in the practice of magic or sorcery (Qur'an 20:69). That could be another reason Mahama has to fail in his political career and as president even though there has always been the very last straw which breaks every camel's back: what he may have plotted or done to me.
You see, in the dream in which Allah was narrating to me what Prophet Musah (Moses ) requested from Him, suggested I could be to Mahama what Moses was to Pharaoh. I didn't know the interpretation of that dream, and why of all stories of Prophets in the Qur'an, God chose this story of Moses when he wanted to see Him to share with me. And my reply was particularly interesting: “I don't want to see because I don't want to be poor”.
As you may have been told or learnt, Prophet Musah was the one baby boy Pharaoh could not show his wickedness and instead, brought the entire power and sorcery of Pharaoh crumbling to the depth of the Red Sea.
In the Islamic perspective, Pharaoh had been told before hand that a boy from among the Children of Israel (Banu Israel or the Jews) shall bring an end to his reign. In order to stop it, Pharaoh enacted a policy to kill every baby boy that was born to Jewish parents. Jewish pregnant women were put under the radar and surveillance of Pharaoh's intelligence. Immediately the women delivered, the intelligence of Pharaoh would arrive to infanticide the baby if it was a boy. For many years. It came a time and the baby boys were overly killed that he decided to tone down the rate at which this horrendous act was being implemented. With the new policy, he had now killed every other year: if they had killed the baby boys in a particular year, they would spare them in the following year. The brother of Moses, Aaron, was born in the year the policy had not allowed to kill. However, the very boy foretold by the soothsayers, Moses, was born in a year the baby boys were to be killed!
The mother of Moses hid the pregnancy till she gave birth without the awareness of Pharaoh's intelligence. Meanwhile, the policy was ruthless that if a pregnant woman had given birth to a baby boy in any vicinity and it was not reported immediately, the entire populace of Israelites in that locality will be killed. There was a carpenter the mother of Moses decided to confide in to help build a box so that she could put baby Moses in and put him into the River Nile as God had revealed to her. The carpenter decided to go and report to Pharaoh about a woman hiding a baby boy. His intention was never evil but just to save the whole locality of Jews. But anytime it was his turn in the queue to meet Pharaoh, he would lose his ability to talk. Instead, he would be uttering some inaudibly irritating noise but began to talk when he had left the presence of Pharaoh. He repeated that several times but he could not talk and Pharaoh himself ordered that he must be whipped if he has returned making those inaudible utterances. And he was dealt with accordingly when he had queued again but couldn't talk after meeting Pharaoh for the umpteenth time. Unable to report the case, he went back to make the box for Moses's mother. When Moses was cast into the open Nile River, the waves took him straight to the most beloved wife of Pharaoh who was barren.
To cut a long story short, the very boy Pharaoh was told to get rid of and for which reason he had engaged in male children infanticide for years ended up in his own custody and care. Moses was raised by Pharaoh himself in his own house at the palace but could not harm him and Moses actually grew up and killed Pharaoh! Despite the sorcery, the power, and the wickedness of Pharaoh, he could not harm Moses.
When I began my support for Mahama against you, many people had told me how evil and wicked he is, and how someone like me need not to sacrifice myself for a Dead Goat. In fact, I had Gonja friends who told me why their families as Gonjas would never support Mahama. I dismissed all that as hatred and envy. The disgruntled father-in-law to-be even told me how Gonjas and Dagombas had a pact by swearing the Holy Qur'an never to fight or wage war against each other but the Gonjas betrayed the pact. He basically was drawing my attention to the fact that Mahama could betray me which I didn't dismiss, but his attempt to generalize all Gonjas as betraying was what made me to reject his wise counsel.
It is haram in Islam to accuse an entire group of people of something because of the action of one individual. I reminded him what the Dagombas often say: “Kundung yelmangli yi zani nyin zang o yelmangli ntoo ka o kul mo'ni”. Which literally translates that, “if the hyena is right, give it the justice it deserves to go back to its wild”. As I have indicated in the previous letters, my support for him was inspired by what you did to him. Regardless of his callousness to people, he had deserved justice.
Mind you, in the Court of Allah, justice overrides mercy, justice trumps loyalty, and of course, justice towers friendship. Even though I saw the dream in which you gave me the Calabashes in 2017 way before I began the support for him, I simply could not just turn against him because you were supposed to be a friend. In fact, I saw in one dream and he wanted me punished but I never bothered about it. And that explains why the party or he Mahama never gave me anything for what I did. My strict observance of justice is what has come to you and I aid today which will lay the foundation for your victory come 2028. In Sha Allah. The wickedness they did to me is what has turned the tables in your favor.
Right now, I have seen that they have been contracting Imams to organize sermons about patience and forgiveness in Mosques I pray Jumu'a (Friday Prayers). I have also seen, through my visions and they are claiming I have been abandoned because of my attitude and bad behavior. They could reach out to you with flimsy accuses like that. Please don't buy into them: it's a trap. Because they are about to be destroyed for a very logical mistake they made, they are flailing and scrambling for any excuse to rescue a sinking government no one can prevent.
The dream I had in the morning of the helicopter crash in which the angel of death took my life and I had to ask God to return me because I didn't want my enemies to win, explains their diabolical agenda. But like Prophet Musah (Moses ), I am the boy Allah would use to bring the end to the long years of wickedness done to innocent people by Mahama. Someone narrated to me how his family had abandoned his wife's driver who needed urgent medical treatment to prevent being consigned to the wheelchair for life.
There is a hilarious story of a thief who had stolen some fried rice and chicken from a food vendor. As he was bolting away with his loot, the food vendor exclaimed: “hey! thief! thief! no ketchup and mayonnaise in the ones you stole! The fool thief decided to return for the ketchup and mayonnaise, and that was how he was caught! Upon the help I offered Mahama and the NDC because of what you and your party might have done to him, he decided to punish me. Of course, not out of callousness per se but to stop your bid to become president of Ghana. As if that was not ugly enough, they attempted to take away my destiny even if that would make me destroyed! And because my destiny and yours appears interlaced, I really can't tell whether your destruction they sought or mine, or the both of us. In any case, like the sheepish thief who returned for ketchup and mayonnaise and got caught, their decision to not leave me in peace and without any reward for service to them, but a callous decision in addition to destroy me, is what has changed the destiny of the NPP from dismantling.
On your runningmate issue, you have to be careful the person you will choose or maintain. If you could convince Alan Kyaremanten to run with you it would have been massive for the party's come back. Like I indicated in the previous letters, his party was supposed to represent the future of the NPP but your eleventh hour move, whatever you might have done or yet to do, rescued the party and your destiny to become president of Ghana.
There's a certain new team (Football Club) that has joined the English Premier League this season. It is called Coventry coached by Lampard, the former legend of Chelsea Football Club. That new team might be the future of Chelsea football club. It might take the shine and glory of Chelsea and collapses it into oblivion. Why? Because of injustices. The way Lampard was outlived as Head Coach of Chelsea and the way the Club was snatched away from Abramovich, the Russian Billionaire who lost ownership of Chelsea because of the Russia-Ukraine war. Whether Russia was right to attack Ukraine because of Kiev's decision to join NATO or not could be judged through the prism of US-Israel war on Iran in the name of security. And was it true that Ukraine had prepared to join NATO which was formed because of the Soviet Union that later had shrugged into Russia alone after the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991? And did NATO reject Russia's application to join it? Simply, did Kiev post a threat to Russia or not? And did Iran also post a threat to Israel and the US or not? But while Russia was sanctioned for attempting to eliminate a security threat, the US-Israel have not been sanctioned for what was even accessed by the CIA to be no threat post by Iran. And Abramovich lost his Football Club because of this. And let me objectively digress a bit regarding the attitude of Israel. Bellicose. Belligerent. Bombastic. And going bananas against Islam and Muslims. It could be envy and it could be what Islamic Holy Scriptures say about Jews. Or, both. Envy because they expected the last Prophet to be a Jew from the descendants of Isaac (Ishaq) and Jacob/Israel (Ya'kub) but Prophet Muhammad came from the Ishmael (Ismail) side of Abraham's children. And the Islamic Scriptures predict the annihilation of Jews by Muslims before the Day of Judgement is established. So, the attitude of Israel towards Islam and Muslims could be their attempt to annihilate Muslims before Muslims can have the ability to do so. Again, historically, what is known as Madina today used to be called Yathrib and some Jews tribes had been living before the advent of Islam in Arabia. There were three well known Jewish tribes living in Yathrib before Prophet Muhammad was invited by the Arabs of Yathrib (the Ansar) to come and lead them. The Jewish tribes: Banu Nadir, Banu Qaynuqa, and Banu Qurayza had settled in Yathrib because they had read that the final prophet shall appear there. The Arab tribes who owners of the town Yathrib had allowed the searching Jews to live with them. But they rejected Prophet Muhammad when he finally arrived but an Arab and not a Jew. And the Jews were eventually driven out of Yathrib which became Madina upon the arrival of the Prophet. One of Israel's aim for being antagonistic to Islam or Muslims or Arabs is to get those lands once occupied by the Jews in Yathrib back as part of the greater Israel project. Yet Iran is on their way because those lands including the Prophet's Mosque and his grave. Sacred sites in Islam Iran would never sit back and allow Israel to take over from Muslims. Hence, this war imposed on Iran in the name of nuclear threat!
The question is, was Israel also right for attacking Iran or not? Whether Russia's war on Ukraine or Israel's war on Iran is justifiable, both should have been punished. But Israel has not been published. And for losing Chelsea Football Club because of this unfair treatment, the Club may struggle.
Meanwhile, the unceremonious way Frank Lampard was also dismissed in Chelsea smacked of injustice for a legend like him to the Club. Alan Kyaremanten is like Frank Lampard and his butterfly party is like Coventry. That's why appeasing Alan Kyaremanten is very important. Of course, unless he rejects and turns you away. But you need to reach out to him so that he can collapse the party to make away even if it means making him the runningmate. The party must understand.
However, if he decides not to accept such an offer or he has in good fate gives you his blessings or support, you need someone with good communication. And good communication in this case I think is not about someone who is eloquent or garrulous. I first thought it was an orator. No. You need someone who owns communication. And it is God who is the owner of communication. Chiefs are vicegerents of God. Therefore, you need a chief or a king to be your runningmate. The dream I saw and the Asantehene died, perhaps suggests this.
You realize that Mahama needed a Professor as a runningmate because he was accused of being incompetent. You need a king or chief as a runningmate. Not just any chief title that is vainglorious. A real king or chief who does not sell one plot of land to 50 people to quarrel over it.
Maybe you should reach out to the Asantehene to serve as your runningmate (Ha-Ha).
Before I am whipped at his palace for this royal blasphemy, let me retort that he is above even the presidency of Ghana. Of course, I believe he wouldn't mind even serving as a minister of state if that would help rescue Ghana and bring prosperity to the country.
On a more serious note, you need someone who is a King, a chief, or someone with royal blood running in his veins. I am told Hon. NAPO, your former runningmate is related to royalty. If that is true then you should maintain him as your runningmate in order to prevent further internal party bickering, division, and disunity.
On the issue of prayers or supplications, I want to clear your mind about something you may also have been entangled in as Muslim. Are you a Sunni Muslim, Shia or Sufi Muslim? (Ha-Ha). As for me, I am a Sunni Muslim who doesn't condemn what others' interpretations of the Qur'an or the assertions (AHadith) of the Prophet are.
Being an intellectual yourself, I guess you might be like me regardless of the sect you identify with. Sectarianism in Islam is as a result of the differences of mazhabs (schools of thought) or interpretations by the Imams who attempted to simplify the injunctions in the Qur'an for Muslims based on explanation by the Prophet. And anyone of these Imams you choose to follow as a Muslim, it is fine. For example, those who identify with a certain mazhab, say Hanafiyya by Imam Abu Hanifa may call themselves Sufis or the Tariqa brotherhood. The famous Imams who created schools of thought include Imam Malik, Imam Hambal, Imam As-Shafi'I, and Imam Abu Hanifa. The mainstream Islam is familiar with these Imams. But the Shia follow a different Mazhab called Ja'fariya and others. What every Muslim must know is that these Imams were never prophets or even Allah Himself. They interpreted the Qur'an and gave verdicts based on their limited knowledge. And they were bound to make mistakes. Their interpretations were also limited to the nature of their society at the time. But the Qur'an is a timeless Book and has something different to offer every generation but the injunctions are unchangeable.
The reason why I am taking you through this preamble to the supplications I would give you is because of the concept of “Bid'a” (innovation or invention) in Islam. That is, adding new teachings or form of worship which is not part of Islam into the religion. And doing acts of worship the way the Prophet did or taught us to do it.
It's a delicate issue in Islam but there's a thin line between what the prophet did as a foundation which requires a Muslim to either do exactly that or can do more, and doing something beyond what is required. For example, the five daily prayers we pray are supposed to be done the way the Prophet prayed them. No addition, no subtraction. So, it will be Bid'a to pray six daily prayers as a Muslim and that can even make you a non-Muslim. The middle prayer, Asr, is supposed to be four units of prayer; praying ten units of it would amount to invention into Islam and outright disbelief. However, wearing clothes in order to pray is necessity but is it Bid'a to wear something the Prophet didn't wear? Example, Kente or Smock?
The Prophet said we should give charity; does that mean we should give charity using only the things the Prophet had given in charity or we can buy an Apple Phone for someone in charity? The Quran commands Muslims to say “Salat” (salutations) upon the prophet and the Prophet gave us an example of how to say salutations upon him which is basically prayer and praise upon the prophet. Should salutations be limited to the example he gave us or what Michael H. Hart wrote about the Prophet as the greatest human being that ever walked the earth, is also a form of salutation?
Personally, I am a Sunni Muslim so I don't even know “Salatul Faatih” which the Tariqa brotherhood believe was given to Sheikh Ahmed Tijani of Algeria in a dream, but I believe it was possible and I don't condemn it or those who do it. The call to prayer which we recite to call Muslims to prayer was never the Prophet God revealed it upon. It was Abdullah Ibn Zayd who was taught in his dream how the call to prayer (Adzan) be said. And the Prophet did not doubt him but approved it (Sahih Bukhari 579 and Sahih Muslim 377).
Perhaps, God had revealed how the “Adzan” should be said to a Companion instead of the Prophet who was the receptacle of the Revelation to prove to the Muslims the Prophet was not deceiving them. Although the revelation of the Qur'an was not based on dreams. The Archangel Gabriel (Jibrill) had sent down any verses or chapter physically and real. And not only Muslims at the time of the Prophet were these prophetic dreams were limited to, Allah can still find example of such dreams among Muslims in every generation.
Again, there was another incident in which the Prophet over heard someone supplicating to Allah with praises of Him using certain names of Allah the person put together. The Prophet acknowledged it by saying: I swear Allah in whose Hands is Muhammad's soul this man has called upon Allah with His best names that what he seeks won't be rejected” (Ibn Majah Hadith number 3857, Sunan Abi Dawud Hadith number 1493/1494, and Tirmidhi Hadith number 3475).
The point I am trying to make here is that, there were Muslims during the lifetime of the Prophet whom Allah chose for certain things that were approved by the Prophet. And the Qur'an says the Prophet never said unless he was instructed by Allah, indicating that Allah instructed him to approve certain things his followers did which never came from him. Therefore, if Allah ways do not change (Sunnatullah), there would certainly be Muslims among every subsequent generation that Allah may choose to see in prophetic dreams or to be able to put certain names of Allah together in supplications. And that is not Bid'a because they have happened before in Islam. Reciting the Qur'an is not Bid'a whether it is some verses or chapter you keep repeating on some specific time you choose for yourself because Allah wants consistency. But where and how the Qur'an is recited matter. Where and how in this regard means, is where you recite the Qur'an pure and clean? And are you correctly reciting verses as they were revealed to the best of your ability and knowledge without deliberately introducing your own words or letters into the Qur'an? If you have met these criterion, it doesn't matter how many times you want to recite any verse or chapter. What is important is you must recite or do that act of worship for the sake of Allah.
Let's now begin with the wazifa (supplication) I want to show you to do so that by the intervention of Allah, you would defeat any sorcery done to snatch your destiny or block your way to the presidency.
You are going to recite Suratul Yasin (Chapter 36) of the Qur'an which is described as the heart of the Qur'an even though the authenticity of that claim has been debated in scholarly circles. Whether it is regarded as the heart of the Qur'an or not, no one disputes it being a Chapter in the Qur'an. There are seven “Mubeens” in it at the end of certain verses: 12th verse, verse 17, verse 24, verse 47, verse 60, verse 69, and verse 77. With this supplication, you would recite a certain verse from a different Chapter in the Qur'an any time you reach any Mubeen. When you reach the first Mubeen pause and recite Qur'an 2:97-98 three times. Then you continue from the first Mubeen. When you reach the second Mubeen pause and recite Qur'an 2:109 three times. Then you continue from the second Mubeen to the third Mubeen. Pause again at the third Mubeen and recite Qur'an 2:111 three times. At the fourth Mubeen, recite Qur'an 4:54 and 10:81-82 three times each. At the fifth Mubeen, recite Qur'an 38:34-40 three times. When you get to the sixth Mubeen, recite Qur'an 68:51-52 three times. And finally when you reach the last and seventh Mubeen, recite Qur'an 1:1-7, 2:255, and the last three chapters of the Qur'an (112, 113, and 114) three times each. Then you continue from the last Mubeen which is verse 77 until you reach verse 82. Make sujuud (prostration) upon reciting verse 82 then you keep repeating it while in prostration for an odd number of times: 3,5,7,911...or 101 times. I prefer 21 or 19 times. After repeating verse 82 the odd number of times, you ask Allah what you want then rise from the prostration and recite the last verse of the Chapter which is verse 83. You can supplicate more to Allah for what you want. It can be done once or repeat it three or seven or twelve consecutive days.
Then second wazifa or special supplication to Allah involves using the 112th chapter (Qulhuwallah) to pray ten units of prayer by reciting that chapter eleven times in each unit or rakat of prayer. After you finish the ten rakats or units of prayer, you recite Suratul Yasin once without stopping at the Mubeens. It is done in the night. Preferably, Thursday night which is Friday night on the lunar calendar, or Sunday night which is Monday night on the lunar calendar. You would get something to be given in charity the following morning. Preferably, to children. Allah will answer what your prayer.
The third wazifa has to do with returning the sorcery upon the sorcerer. You will recite Qur'an Chapter 80 called Surah Abasa seven times and ask Allah to return the sorcery upon the sorcerer. There's a certain prayer in which you mention the name of the enemy or envier or sorcerer in the middle of that supplication before you conclude reciting that supplication, but I can't put it here in a transliteration form. It is often recited after reciting Surah Abasa (Qur'an 80) seven times.
There are other ones very powerful but time and space won't allow me to continue.
Note that some of these supplications or wazifas have been devised or pieced together by scholars or people who did them at random and their problems were solved. And like the examples cited above regarding how the Prophet himself had approved supplications created by his Companions using Qur'anic verses or names of Allah, there's no wrongdoing also taking some chapters of the Qur'an or names of Allah at random and repeatedly reciting in seeking Allah's intervention in a matter you wish addressed.
For example, one time some of the Companions of the Prophet were returning from a journey when night fell after they had reached a certain community. The people of that community decided to chase them out of their community when they had realized they were Muslims. The Companions left the community and camped not far from it. Later that night the leader of that community got stung by some poisonous reptile or scorpion. And when the pain was unbearable, he requested that the Muslims who were not camping from far away be contacted whether they could help. But because the Prophet never taught them how to handle a situation like that, nobody offered to help. But one Companion got up and said he could cure the leader. His colleagues were puzzled. He followed the messengers back to the community and recited Fatiha (Qur'an 1:1-7) over the head of the victim and he was cured. They asked for a price to pay for curing him and he charged them some number of goats to pay.
Now, the other Companions characterized his action as Bid'a and the payment as haram (forbidden) but when they had reached home and he explained to the Prophet, the Prophet asked him how could he have known that the particular chapter he recited was a cure? Upon that the Prophet demanded his share of the payment jokingly. He told them that day that Fatiha was a cure to every disease.
Now, Fatiha is said to be the Mother of the Qur'an in the Qur'an. That is, in the Qur'an, Fatiha has been described as the Mother of the Qur'an which has seven verses. If Fatiha is a cure and mother of the Qur'an, surely the rest of the Qur'an is also a cure. And it doesn't matter what you recite. Any portion of the Qur'an can be recited to cure even though there were certain specific verses the Prophet had picked to counter sorcery or madness caused by body possession. And other problems.
Therefore, there's no Bid'a about this prayer I have shown you. If you read the translations of these verses I mentioned in the recitation of Surah Yasin, you would see that they are talking about envy, enmity and sorcery. And the purpose of this supplication is to neutralize evil eye (ayn) caused by envy, enmity and hatred which often turns into a blockade in the life of the victim.
May Allah deliver us from this political turbulence, and make it easy for you come 2028. Aameen Thummah Aameen!
In respect of the speech impediment which I said I had noticed in your last public interview, you should always recite Qur'an 20:28 before any public address by beginning from verse 25 (Rabishrahlee saddri wa yesirlee amrii wahalul uqdata minlisaani yafqauhu qaulee….. 20:25-28).
Lastly, my father recently gave me someone's number he said works at Custom Office and could offer me a job. If I accept that job, I would be exchanging your presidency with it. Just like accepting the girl they had swapped. Meanwhile, I must keep body and soul together, and my practice of celibacy or chastity at 34 must not also continue. Because of what I am seeing in dreams I can't fornicate which many youngsters often engage in when they dismiss marriage.
The similitude of such young men and women is like a lady who claims virginity as a woman because men sleep with her from her backside. Unnatural canal knowledge.
I think they have been collaborating with my parents in a blackmailing way, especially my mother who suggested I should tone down my prayers in order to be successful. She also gave me the story of a certain Prince whom in a desperate attempt to become future king needed to steal and be publicly humiliated before he could be freed from his lot. Basically, she was suggesting I should probably stop my prayers to God for help and also consider stealing so that I can be publicly shamed to break my chains of unsuccessful struggles. It doesn't therefore come as a surprise that an attempt has been made to slander me a thief wherever I live. The question is, who will benefit from that? “MagicMahama”? And who really is the target, me or you or the two of us?
But the writing I did against you and for Mahama and the NDC is what has come in between me and what they have wished to do me (us). And you should be able to understand how that writing I did against the NPP and you has benefited you. Hence, my vision that I should write against you in order to become your friend is what has come true.
You can find out from Hon. Iddrisu Musah Superior, former Mayor of Tamale, whether I had asked him to find out from you whether you were aware of a young man who is supposed to write against you in order to be your friend or not? You could have as well asked a News Anchor called Muhammed Suleiman Abdul Nasir popularly known as Brother Nash of Justice FM in Tamale. He had died few years ago. He was one of my elderly friends, and at the time you gave him the car, I was the guy reading the Business News with him during prime time news at 7:30 pm on Radio Justice. Anytime he had read the major bulletin and said, “and in Business?”, I was the guy reading the Business News Headlines. He told me the Vice President gave him a car.
There was also another elderly friend I won't mention his name here who is very rich and well travelled. He is into oil and gas business and others. Around 2013, he used to take me with him to visit his businesses and I was baffled to realize there were so many businesses I never knew belonged to him. We used to go to Friday prayer together at the Central Mosque in Tamale. He was an NDC sympathizer but when he went for MCE of Nalerigu, he was not selected. Then you met him and convinced him to join you in the NPP. He told me when he defected. He was driving an ash color Camry. I would not give too many clues so that people may recognize him but he once took me to a certain plot of land, between the Tamale West Hospital in Zogbeli and the Picorna Hotel, he wanted to buy and open a Petrol station and he was denied. He had told me he would let you help him get that plot of land when you become Vice President at the time. But till date, that plot of land has not been used for Petrol station because of the proximity to the Tamale Aboabo market. So, the person who might have asked you to help him get that piece of land, is the one I am talking about. He's usually in abroad. You can ask him too about me. I have known you ffrom afar for some time from these elderly friends.
In fact, in 2016 I was doing Itqaf in Masjidul Bayaan (seclusion to the Mosque during the last ten days of Ramadan) and you came to campaign in the Mosque in that Ramadan. During the Magrib prayer after the Tafseer, it was only one person between you and I in the first role. Your bodyguard. And I had wanted to shake your hand and tell you I was the guy who has been texting you that someone gave me your number that you shall need me one day. But immediately the prayer was completed, your bodyguards just whisked you away, and I couldn't get to shake your hand and tell you.
Subsequently, I texted you even before I saw that dream. And when I saw the dream, I began calling you but you had always given excuse of being at meetings. Usually, on Sundays around 4pm to 5pm. I was the same guy who texted you around 3am in the morning and suggested government should collect taxes on every car or house in Ghana, taxes on motorbikes and bicycles then you sent me “noted” and “thank you”. Then few months later, the government introduced the luxury cars tax.
I can go on and on but you never bothered to find me or be serious. And I doubt your seriousness this time around. Mine is the message I deliver; you are at liberty to accept or understand.
God bless our efforts,
God bless Ghana.
Yours faithfully,
