    • @prebriny1
      @prebriny1 Před 3 lety +2

      That’s true. And it sometimes creeps into his interviews because we don’t get to hear all the speakers have to say. He mostly conducts the interview as if viewers already know what he knows.

    Victor Owusu was VERY SMART, INTELLIGENT OR KNOWLEDGEABLE, not arrogant! People think knowledge is arrogance. That is wrong.

    • @paakwesi4395
      @paakwesi4395 Před 3 lety +5

      Arrogance actually has nothing to do with IQ. It just seems his EQ(emotional intelligence) was a little bit defective that he seemed to rub off people the wrong way.

    • @adjekumkwaku859
      @adjekumkwaku859 Před 3 lety

      I remember you put a direct statement to Victor Owusu that "people say you arrogant", and his response was what made the difference. He replied that he was resourceful and if that could be referred to as arrogance then so be it. I liked him for that. You did not say that " What made you special? Victor Owusu did not explode. You were biased towards the Nkrumaist tradition so you were in to have it out with Victor Owusu. He knew how your line of questions would so he was very careful with his demeanor and his choice of words in answering your questions. I watched and listened throughout the interview. Victor Owusu was also calm during the interview.

      Do you consider his side of the story the Prudent Truth? What about the Man in the Center? Rawlings himself has justified his reasons for the attack, and that's why some of Us left the NDC and traveled Abroad. We could not have a Different view on issues bothering the Nation and the Administration on a whole. My problem is the Transparency and Integrity lacking in the presentations at different times.

Some of us, whatever you give us in Ghana, we’ll still travel. Arkaah himself knew he has a different political agenda and making governance difficult but refuse to resign.

    So Rawlings from day one has always been hands on paaaa even in choosing the people for governance. He was not that naive oooo
    My only issues is with his attitude towards sycophancy. He seem to cherish that and if anyone tries not to be a sycophant he gets rid of you plus it looks like his loyalty was only one way stream more like Trump his way or high way but somehow was able to make people think of him otherwise.
