Nana Addo once plagiarized a quote that states “We can bring back the Economy but can’t bring back lives that might have been lost by Covid19” Though he plagiarized it but it sounded good at the time it was made.
The Bible also says, what will it profit a man when he gains the whole world and loses his life?
For sometime now no one has been able to come to terms with the reason the President has asked our children to resume school amid this Covid19 pandemic.

If not a shared wickedness of this government to deliberately use our Children for sacrifices to retain power then why should government be happy to take delight from endangering the lives of our Children.
The numbers continue to rise in all our senior High schools but government because of their evil agenda has refused to let the students go.
Our parents should remember the children of these politicians are not in our senior High school but are home learning via zoom while Efo Agbeli’s children have been push to go and contract the disease and die.
Just as our National executives have declared, all parents must not wait for government if not their children might not return home alive.
Covid19 is real and the lives of our kids are more important than the exams and Nana Addo’s voters Register.
Am Still A Citizen Not a Spectator.
Efo Worlanyo Tsekpo.
