@21guns pls stop embarrassing urself and ur country. Is English not the official language in Ghana? You will do urself a great deal of good if u just come to this site, read articles, read other peoples comments and leave. BTW, if u think Mensah is handsome, I seriously wonder what people in Ghana look like.
