Ghana is an interesting country—this time, for two apparent reasons; a national Independence Day brochure was ruined by deplorable and somewhat flagrant mistakes which insult the many intellectuals in government and in the country.
Secondly, perhaps pitifully, we cannot seem to locate or name the person or institution that produced this preposterous piece of brochure—let alone to reprimand those who were in charged and have turned Ghana into a global laughing stock.
After the error-ridden brochure became an item of social media conversation and mockery, a showcase of the hovering incompetence of the incumbent government, an apology was issued from a certain government quarters which blamed the Information Service Department for the gross mistakes in the brochure.
Even that letter of apology had its own mistake—a simple double checking from the source would have exposed this.
Now, workers of the Information Service Department have held a press conference to distance themselves from the attributed blame, saying inter alia that, they were not in any involved in the preparation and printing of the brochure and therefore cannot ascertain why a letter was issued on their behalf, apologizing for an act or omission that had nothing to do with them.
How difficult or thorny is it for the government of Ghana to rightfully locate the institution or person that prepared or printed that appalling brochure—and at least push that person or institution to apologize to the good people of Ghana?
Is the government in anyway telling us it does not know who was in charge or the institution that did the printing—such that we are being led on wild goose chase with a forged apology letter?

Simply, if the government does not know who printed it, it should just adopt the common mafia tactic of ‘follow the money.’ Who was paid for this?
The mistakes may seem innocuous but we cannot continue to allow ourselves to be subjected to such international mockery as a country, because of the gross ineptitude of a certain group of persons or institutions.
At least, the citizens of Ghana deserve an apology for this—and it must come from the person or institution that committed the unpardonable wrong.
The good people of Ghana’s money was used in preparing the error-ridden brochure and therefore they deserve an apology for the obvious waste of their money—the tax payer must be duly respect.
If it was anywhere in the world where accountable was indeed a national tenet and not a matter of political rhetoric, we wouldn’t be now searching for the one who did such a lousy job: that person would have been pushed by the powers above to resign—and we would have been now discussing the errors in the person’s resignation letter.
We play too much in this country called Ghana…
An apology is as useless as a used toilet paper if it comes from the wrong person.
