Editor-in-Chief of New Crusading Guide, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako has rubbished claims that the ratified pact by the Government of Ghana to allow US Military force to operate in the nation will result in the setting up of a US Military base in the nation.
It is a known fact that Defence Minister, Dominic Nitiwul, has several times debunked such claims asserting that the US is not going to set up a Military base.
It is explained that the US Military is only granted privileges to enter the country and undertake certain operations as regards the agreement.
Kweku Baako, speaking on Peace FM's Kokrokoo, has also strengthened the clarifications given by the Defence Ministry about the US Military base stating emphatically that the NDC's position that the government has granted access for the US to set up their Military base in Ghana is a palpable lie.
“You know what a base is? US Military base, do they know what it is? It’s a township. They come with their families and everything. They have to get their own hospitals and everything. That’s a massive thing and their personnel will be in their thousands”, he expounded.

Kwaku Baako has become part of the rented press. How could you sell your hard earned credibility in defending the indefensible? Times must be hard for you.
So called kwaku kyeretwie keep quiet you are not an Ashanti you are only a disgrace.
This man thinks he knows everything in the country. Why is he always talking for the NPP? Let us ask the important question......WHAT does GHANA stand to GAIN from this AGREEMENT? Kwaku Baako should tell us and stop speaking for the NPP.
Kwaku Baako talks too much. Is he a politician or journalist? Why is he so interested is this matter? He has been talking and talking and talking and defending this matter as if he has been paid to do so. Is he a spokesman for the NPP?
Who in his right sense will setup a military base based on an agreement that can be terminated by either party upon writing without giving any reasons whatsoever. If the US intends to that, then I am sorry to say they must be ***barred word*** to do that. I am not sure if people know what goes into setting up a military in the first place. The logistics, infrastructure, equipment, etc Don't let us make too much fun of ourselves by exposing our ignorance. The debate should not even be about a military base in the first.
We Ashantis will like to welcome the USA toset up a military base in Kumasi. First of all Ashanti Kingdom is an empire and in the constitution Ashantis at any point can negotiate to improve upon the development of the kingdom. So therefore if the rest of Ghanaians don't like the military base , then we will Asantehene to allow the USA to establish the military base in the Ashanti Region period.
KWEKU BAAKO I HAVE SAID HE'S GOING TO START GAINING ZERO ATTENTION BECAUSE HE'S PLAYING ***barred word*** NOW.. THE GOVERNMENT HAVE ACCEPTED IT IS A MILITARY BASE BUT KWEKU BAAKO IS SHOWING HE KNOWS MORE THAN THE GOVERNMENT AND THAT'S VERY GOOD... VERY RECENTLY YOU SAID EX PRESIDENT MAHAMA BEGGED FOR THE US MILITARY BASE TO BE ESTABLISHED HERE AND TODAY IT IS NOT A BASE??....CONFUSED SOUL.... KWAKU BAAKO PLEASE STOP MAKING THIS GOVERNMENT LOOK VERY IMCOMPETENT.
He can even write proper English. For example,he writes.."military bases does not...", instead of "do not". How can this chap make sound analysis?. Nana Addo has made SHS free, find time to go back to school to learn or you will perish for lack of knowledge
Military base originally does not have families of officers stationed there with them,secondly only large military bases have family support systems in place, thirdly millitary bases does not neccessarily need to be large so what Mr. Editor-in-chief is quizzing us on is niether here nor there. He shouldn't sound as though everyone is ***barred word*** about everything. A military base is a military base period. It time we need to be truthful to ourselves and stop trowing dust into peoples eyes.
Kwaku is not too known please, he is just making a point, now let me educate you Eddie. Research the US military base in Germany or any country in the world. you see the bible says my people perish for lack of knowledge so before you comment, have at least little idea of what a base is.
