What is he talking about a major shake up?
The only way forward for Ghana is to put robots at the parliament because we have lost confidence in our politicians.

Even though the supreme court judges deferred to the lower courts to decide on Woyome, they fired a critical salvo against lawyers in the cases- Peasah Boadu for Waterville, Osafo Buabeng for Woyome, Tony Lithur for Austro Invest and maybe Ekow Awoonor who acted as sole mediator between parties with then AG Betty Mould Iddrissu.
The counsel for John Mahama,Tony Lithur, at the supreme court election petition case was part of the woyome scam that stole millions of Euros from Ghana. This is SICK- NDC must go.

I once sent a text to a Minister friend of mine after I had been angered by infantile statement made by Rashid Pelpu. Certainly, I do not expect such silly mistakes to be committed because they give too much ammunition to the professional thieves (NPP) whose kleptocracy is difficult to detect to insult the President. I think Prez Mahama is being too soft and it appears he does not want to hurt anyone. Prez Mahama, please remember that in the end IT IS YOUR NAME AND NO ONE ELSE THAT WILL BE ON THE LIPS OF GHANAIANS, ESPECIALLY THE NPP LOOTING BRIGADE WHO ARE IMPATIENT TO RETURN TO LOOT. Please SACK those incompetent appointees now

This incompetent and corrupt NDC government under John Mahama must be retired if Ghana is to realize its socio-economic potential. They are clueless on how to govern.

Ghana needs a determined leadership from local government to nationa, leadership that thinks and acts in the interest of Ghana. Just check what the Electricity Company of Ghana officials did in east airport estates last week. The technicians failed to the do the right things in changing meters, many houses had to call private electricians to help solve basic problems, many spent more than 800 Ghana cedis.
Incompetency would destroy the democratic gains of multiparty system.

Nobody in Ghana seems able to stop the massive corruption in the civil service, just take the current report of the AG's department, if it were say in the UK or Rwanda.... action would be taken against the corrupt elements. All we are interested for now is defending the corrupt leaders be they in government, civil society or in opposition. Ghana needs good leaders

There must be change in Ministers and Directors and history must be our guide so that ministers do not go to hair dressing salons to borrow money as was the case in the Kufuor era. And that Ghana does not also go HIPC again.

Kwesi, now you see, the bad gov't you did PR for is checking its 'smoothness' level (referring to your own sayings about Nana Konadu). Just do a listening tour and you will hear the feelings of frustration among most Ghanaians. I hope you heard about the Agams group, the NYEP/Zoom alliance's rots- over invoicing and shear ploy to dupe the state. I want to hear your voice on some of these. Palpably unprecedented corruption lingering in the air, Kwesi. Ghana can't continue like this. Pls be part of the crusade to sanitize Ghana for the interest of our children and children's children.

I HAVE OFTEN ENJOYED LISTENING TO MR. KWESI PRAT ON VARIOUS TOPICS BUT OF LATE I AM BEGINNING,TO THINK THAT THE MAN IS TALKING TOO MUCH AND HE HAS BECOME PRETENTIOUS. THE,MINISTERS HE WANTS CHANGED HAVE BEEN IN OFFICE FOR LESS THAT SIX MONTHS AND HE THINKS HE CAN CASTIGATE THEM. LAST SATURDAY HE MADE A POINT ON ALHAJI AND ALHAJI AND HAD TO LEAVE TO RADIO STATION. HE MIGHT STILL HAVE HAD HIS RADIO ON. A FELLOW PANELIST DISAGREES WITH A POINT HE MADE AND HE CALLS BACK TO THE STATION QUESTIONING WHY SOMEBODY HAS A DIFFERENT OPINION. I WAS DISGUSTED. SOME OF THESE JOURNALISTS ARE GOOD BUT LACK,OF HUMILITY DESTROYS THEIR IMAGE.

I have begin to doubt in the early life of this government whether it can go for 2 terms. I have so much doubt now unless things change drastically.
For me, if things dont improve I will assist to facilitate the exit so fast.
This is not what we worked hard for but some of us are becoming disappointed with the way things are moving.
I know the government can do better than this if there were total unity in the party which is translated into the government. The president who is the leader should begin to show leadership otherwise he cannot blame anybody.

The urgency is lacking in the administration. The president has strikingly travelled abroad 5 times or so since his investiture 6months ago yet neither he nor his advisors has even found time to meet and address Ghanaians who need good jobs, who need water, good roads etc. I saw this seeming abdication from the beggining.

How long has it taken Kwasi"nkwan di waa"Pratt, to come to this assertion that, there needs to be a ministerial reshuffle?
For his information Ghanaians are far ahead of the curve because, they know for a fact that, this is the most incompetent and grossly inept team ever, to find themselves in gov't. It's good "Nkwan Di wa"Kwasi Pratt has come to some semblance of this very clear fact that right thinking and well meaning Ghanaians have known all along. The NDC gov't cannot do anything because they don't have the brain power.
