The article appears to have moved; it is now at
http://www.freedommag.org/english/vol28I1/contrib.htm
I'm glad to see that Nelson Mandela's office took legal action against
these imposters. But it's too bad that the (Cape Town?) Sunday Times
did not mention that the organization was a Scientology
front group.

Isaac Hayes was on Conan O'Brian a while back. he mentioned that he
was made a King by one of the ruling royalty of Ghana. He said that
he has all the rights and priviledges of a King in that country. He
said that people there bow etc., just like to all the other royalty.
Expect to see scientology flourish in that country. At the recent bash
at Celebrity Centre, the 27th Anniversary of it inception, Princess
Asie Ocansey of Ghana was in attendence. She enjoyed being with the
famous scientology celebrities, and had her picture taken with Kirstie
Alley and Billy Sheehan.
I's say, if Co$ follows it's usual foot-in-the-door opportunities, that
we could expect a lot more of the Royalty of Ghana to end up becoming
scientologitized.
Does Isaac and Royalty of Ghana have any idea that LRH used to
support the leaders of apartheid while he was alive? And it's
also rather amusing that with his attitude, the scientologists
have the audacity to use Nelson Mandela's name in one of their
front groups. Gee, and people think that the Co$ doesn't have
a sense of humor!!
Reading what LRH had to say about the African blacks, I imagine they
will be expelling some totally gnarley BT'S.
What are BT's? See http://www.gate.net/~shipbrk/Co$/ot-docs.html
