    Sammy go and ask your boss K4. They made the deal and pocket all the money with his crooks and gave Ghana only 10%. He is now enjoying the booty, thats why Nana is furious to become president to have his share.

    Why is Ghana exporting cocoa and gold and then importing the finished products. This is NPP hyprocrisy at its height

    This is not an informed analysis for any reader to make sense of. How much oil do we produce, to even set up a Committe to oversee oil revenues? The expenses of the Committee are more that the revenue the oversee.
