A Private Legal Practitioner Kwame Adofo has lashed out at Ghanaian leaders describing them as hypocrites for turning blind eye to wrong doings in the country.

According to him, Ghanaians have been brainwashed into believing that prayer is the key to heaven.

Lawyer Adofo wondered why Ghanaians’ attitudes and conducts do not reflect the Christian way of life describing prayers by Ghanaians as ‘facade’.

‘…We are in a country that paradoxically supposed to be rich and yet we are so poor. And that is because good men and women are refusing to stand up to wrong and evil. When good men do nothing, evil grows and that is why I always describe this country as very hypocritical. In the sense that we have so many people who claim to be Christians and yet our attitudes and conducts are not reflection of a Christian way of life.

‘So when I see people praying and wasting our ears, preaching near our windows and disturbing us, I say they will go home and do bad things, perpetrating the wrongs in society without actually changing. All these noise making, preaching are just facade. Its not the true reflection of a Christian country. It tells you we are not honest people, because we have been brainwashed into thinking that when we make noise, pray, we are going to heaven,’ he pointed out.

The Supreme Court ordered the Auditor General to surcharge people who have embezzled State funds. The ruling came into force after pressure group Occupy Ghana filed a suit against the Auditor General.

But speaking on Ultimate Breakfast Show hosted by Lantam Papanko, he bemoaned the lack of enthusiasm by Ghanaian leaders to implement laws, calling on them to bow their heads in shame for refusing to retrieve monies owed the State.

Juxtaposing Ghana to the Western world, he said those in charge of child support have powers to make arrest and defaulters are made to pay the money asking why the situation is different in Ghana.

He indicated that laws work in the the Western world than Ghana where there are clear evidence to prosecute State looters.

Lawyer Adofo said tax payers monies are squandered by few individuals saying the country will burn if Ghana does not enforce laws by punishing State looters.

‘No the case didn’t need to go to court but we have become a people who are recalcitrant by not letting the law work,… that some citizens who means well for this country had to take that matter back to the court. Its a very sad reflection of our lives… We are in a country where we have laws but certain people are refusing to implement the laws. It means we are lost, you chop, I chop, everybody go home happy, the roads and schools don’t get built, nothing gets done that is the state of affairs now. And I think its very sad, to me I think its shameful on the part of our leadership, the whole country is in a mess not because God doesn’t like us, far from it,’ he said

He questioned why Ghanaian leaders have not been able to retrieve monies Alfred Agbesi Woyome owes the State.

The Private Legal Practitioner observed that Ghana is endowed …but ‘wicked’ leaders have turned it into a poor country where its citizens are suffering.

He said leaders, Christians and Muslims have failed the country by not being reflections of what they preach saying the country is bleeding.

‘This country is rich and endowed but some bad people living under the guise of Christianity and religious differences so to speak, Muslims and Christians we are pretending not to do the right thing, example of why the country is in a mess is Woyome’s situation, a court has found that he has to refund the money and yet our public officers are refusing to take action. Its a very sad situation that we don’t have good men and women who can do die for this country, because I don’t know how we can rescue ourselves from this mess,’ he stated.
