Who Killed Lucy?

When we were small boys some forty something years ago, there was a ‘must read’ periodical tilted as above – WHO KILLED LUCY? Let’s leave it here and as such.

 

E-LEVY VOTING

The remit of this piece is, if Ghanaians may recall, during the voting on the controversial E – levy, a number of Parliamentarians were outside the jurisdiction and had to be flown in at the tax payer’s expense to partake in the voting due to the hung nature of the then Parliament.

The situation was so tense that an MP who was bed ridden for whatever reason(s) had to be ferried in an Ambulance to the House of Parliament,  in case – that is Ghanaian politics for you.

Ghana’s Parliament voted for the passage of the E-Levy on March 29, 2022. The Electronic Transfer Levy Act, 2022 (Act 1075) was assented to by the President on March 31, 2022, and implementation began on May 1, 2022. The levy imposed a 1.5% tax on electronic transactions and later reduced to 1%.

However, it’s worth noting that the E-Levy was scrapped by Parliament on March 26, 2025, and President John Dramani Mahama assented to the bill on April 2, 2025, effectively abolishing the tax

At any length, this is not what l have come to say. On that fateful day – March 29, 2022 – there entered a lady who assumed the seat of the Member of Parliament for Dome/Kwabenya, Adwoa Safo, partook in the voting which affected my life and that of millions of Ghanaians and non-Ghanaians.

That immediately thereafter, the said lady was whisked away “under the cover of darkness” with the speed of light, she towing like a bush fowl, aka, “Onipa bone fo?dwaneabre a, obiampam no, alias, “Okwaduomirikatrom, ?k?dadaada”.

 

ENTER ADWOA

To compound the issue, the affected and infested MP, Adwoa Safo, without blinking an eye, was on the floor of Parliament to inform the whole world that, for once, Ghana had an MP who could be at two distinct places at the same time. I will not be surprised if she derived that majestical prowess from the Father, now late.

This was when the alarm blew and she had the onerous task to cover the tracks of the criminals who orchestrated this immoral and criminal act against the good people of Ghana.

 

LOUD MOUTHS

Yah, immediately thereafter, some loud mouths on the other side, notably, Okudzeto, now Foreign Minister; Dzata Sam George, now the Communication Minister; Haruna Iddrisu, now Education Minister; the late Environment Minister, Mutala Mohammed and a host of them vowed, invoking their apple shaped hearts, personal gods, native chi (gods), mention them, to get to the bottom of the matter since with their “naked  eyes” that person could not have been Adwoa Safo citing various and varied mathematical and aerospace theories to buttress their assertion.

They further added that the House was not only Honourable and August, but sacred and cannot sit aloof (whatever that means or meant) whilst the House was desecrated, oh yes, defiled by whoever – indeed?

Nor was it all for they also added, such a despicable act could only occasion in Abeokuta not Kwame Nkrumah’s Ghana -wao !!.

 

SCATCHING BACKS

I cannot tell and not quite sure of the mediations, set offs, arbitrations, trade-offs, interventions by and from the beggars brigade, behind the scenes talks etc that went on. Notwithstanding, one thing is certain, the case died like the body Guard who shot the Congolese President, Kabila, who himself was shot and died with all his secrets.

Unfortunately for Ghanaians, Adwoa Safo is still alive, kicking and must not be left off the hook.

I am tempted to believe Adwoa is not a student of history. After incriminating herself to the effect that she did not vote for the E -levy and was indeed not around (see her interview on JoyNews pulse with Elton), she ‘serpently’ has woefully failed to lodge a formal complaint of her identity being misused and misapplied. Oh yes, it was the serpent who gave Adam that sweet red apple to devour at his own peril.

Yah, she made a sudden U-Turn when it suited and situated her interest. After all, Ghanaians are not only gullible and susceptible, but also forgetting. Thanks to Fama Nyame and Eny3 Hwee dichotomies, she had the effrontery, oh yes, temerity to ask the good people of Dome/Kwabenya to give her another chance, after all, “To Err Is Human” aka, “Nipa Dasani Hia Frama.”

 

QUESTIONS AWAITING ANSWERS

 

Fortunately for Ghanaians, in the upcoming NPP Presidential primary slated for January 31, three of the aspirants namely, ‘Y?nasikafo?koraa’ Kennedy Akompreko Agyapong, ‘?dan?ny?adaka’ Bryan Acheampong and BosomtwiApatr? Yaw Osei Adutwum were privy, at least via the ears and eyes when this criminal act was perpetuated on peace loving Ghanaians.

In fact, the trio who now aspire to lead their Party were in Parliament both in body and spirit that D-Day, and thus cannot plead alibi – THESE ARE CREATURES, sorry ooo, CHARACTERS SEEKING THE HIGHEST OFFICE OF THE LAND – OH YES, THEY HAVE NO SHAME AND CONSCIENCE.

These persons are certainly big wigs in the NPP equation and undoubtedly nothing within the Party, both good and bad, cannot be hidden from them, more particularly when Ken is credited for SHOWDOWNS (clearly what happened on the floor of Parliament that fateful day can be equated to the showdown) Bryan for orchestrating the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-elections violence.

This is according to Emile Short’s unedited report for which he has ‘unpresidentially’ described same as bogus, bogus indeed, and Adutwum with the mathematical set saga serving as a huge albatross around his presidential bid neck.

Until the trio purge themselves of this ‘hideous crime’, which was committed in their presence and has since not publicly been condemned by any of them. We need answers thereto on or before Saturday, January 31. Are they accomplices or the mastermind thereof? – Ghanaians need to know to make informed decisions and choices. Axiomatically, “Opanin a ?tena fie ma mmofra we nanka no, s?y?kannanka we fo? a, ?kahobi”.

To draw the curtain thereon, WHO KILLED LUCY, sorry ooooo, WHO WAS ON ADWOA’S SEAT ON MARCH 26, 2025 AND DID VOTE?

Ken, Yaw, Bryan (KYB), come and remove your mouth before you stand accused.

Waiting.
