All of you dont seem to be able to read the signs of the times or connect the dotted line. Now that we have barely survived the chinese rape pepeni has sold the country through the racist American ambassador to GE to exploit us and put us back not decades like they did to nkrumah but centuries never to recover again. we are now slaves and beggars in our own country. the wealth of the nation especially that of the Akans will now be siphoned out by placing this impossible burden and other yokes on our backs just so 5000mw can be paid. they are not offering us sustainable growth like they did for their former enemies the germans and japanese but we who gave our best in Burma will now be humiliated and bossed around , exploited and broken till we are just thank God for air we may have to breath. our hearts will now be broken as we stand no chance against this evil . they tried to take our oil but mills and the ahvois stopped this now they take everything under the guise of bringing investors , where is our Hugo Chavez or Che Guevara now ? they were given the akosombo and alumina business so we could pay for our sustainable growth through the sale of 99.99% pure aluminum but in their hatred based on racism they gave us what was not sustainable and are the root cause of all our problems today . mills chose the chinese who gave us their scum and criminals but pepeni has linked up with the most toxic of multinationals , God is on our side and we will show them soon

What happens to sacrificing and cutting back on your salaries and expenses? You're the cause for all this agitations.

I find it difficult to deal with people who spew such rubbish. When they were giving rent advances to the MPs and doubling their salaries, had that been budgeted for? That is why I say Mahama needs a serious spokesperson. Someone with wisdom. When tensions are calming down, then he starts the flames again. Were the tractors that they stole during Mills' early time in office budgeted for to be stolen? That is a spokesperson for the governmet. Mahama you are in deep shit.

Seriously speaking the Government/Country CAN AFFORD to close down the universities for about two (2) years without any serious repercussions. We will then save substantial amount of money, curtail the production of hundreds or thousands of half-baked illiterate graduates; weed out bogus lecturers and eliminate programs and courses irrelevant to the economy and future development of the country.

The NDC would have to explain to Ghanaians how a dead man came to author and sign a letter!

The opening paragraph states, “I came to serve; I have finished my time here on earth and have moved on to everlasting rest and celestial duties with my heavenly father.”

The immediate question is; how did the dead man come to sign his own personal tribute, since he is already in heaven?

The letter then goes on melodramatically, “As you leaf through these pages of my life’s story, I pray to God that it touches your heart in many positive ways. Weep not, I am not dead. I am alive and awake in the Lord. Ghana will not die; Ghana will live to declare the works of the Lord. As I rest in perfect peace in the celestial realms with my maker, I pledge to always uphold and defend the good name of Ghana. Remember the Lord in all your ways and He will protect you. Stay well my brothers and sisters, I will always be with you. Signed (with actual signature) John Evans Atta Mills...

I am force to say that it is obvious stupidity runs in the ayariga blood. Ever since this guy became a minister he has never made any sensible statement just as his brother did during the campaigns.

What about the MPS who are now quiet
after they received GHC 200,000.00 each just for doing nothing in four years. How many laws did they pass. Most of them do not even good English and so cannot speak.

It will be better for you to make sure that the tax payer's money spent on your education, actually yields the anticipated returns: Learn how to spell and write first. Only then should you attempt to insult.

What a fucking statement by saying "Government is been encouraged to spend outside the 2013 budget by the uncompromising demands of striking government workers". They are not encouraging but rather demanding you fucking idiots to pay them as the fucking government paid the fucking ex-gratia award to the do nothing fucking Legislative body. We are telling this Mahama to trim his government but that is going to the deaf part of his ears and whom are your to blame?

Mahama has a poor communication team, eventhough the Prez himself is a communication expert, he lack communication clarity.

Do striking doctors care where they get the loan and interest. In 2013 budget, was the ex- gratias factored in? Yet it has been paid. Of course, 2014 we will go over budget spend. Because of the ex-gratias.

I beats my imagination the level of thinking of some of these NDC guys. I would urge Mahama Ayariga to go back and read the budget again and the expenditure patterns of the NDC gov't and why we are here. Who is coercing who? After stealing all the monies, who is coercing who? This is complete and absolute foolish talk.

When it came to ex-gratia for you and your fellow greedy bastards you never complained. You think ghanaians are fool. They also deserve their share of the national cake.
