Sara, you insult the intelligence of Ghanaians with you heading "Mahama will fish all of them"

His guys are busy blocking truth seeking materials from reaching the courts while he turns deaf ears against all suggestions to get rid of same people who wreck the nation from his government.

Isnt it strange that " missing GH¢862 million is due to administrative errors" ? It is becoming a fashionable trade mark to attribute fraud to administrative error.

With this fraudulent attitude Ghana is bound to collapse at the hands of people in power.

Those guys must be dragged to court for saying that it was an administrative error that led to the loss of the money. Even electoral irregularities, omissions and malpractices have now become administrative errors.

pepeni like all evil men in history is saying its God who gave him victory , hitler , stalin and all the intrinsically evil men including satan also claimed the same. pepeni has put only his own muslim pepefuo in charge of all key aspects of the nation and their main agenda is to recolonize the Akans so we are his slaves and servants . he has deceitfully used and abused the so called democratic process to achieve this. he is not interested in the welfare of the majority but to push into further poverty and misery the great nations of Akan so that his dimwitted pepeni idiots can handle things easier. today we are now in a feudal middle ages mentality era with no water , electricity or decent wages . any Akan who wishes to do anything good for his own people is frustrated bullied and mobbed by the state and called the worst of names if not thrown outright in jail or killed. championing his cause are the ayigbe who have mastered the art of the hatred of the Akans and together with the agenda of hegemony and chauvinism succeeded in making the lives of most Akans unbearable . let them know God is on our side and we shall win our freedom sooner than they think, long live the republic of Akan

Which morales are Ghanaian leaders and people in responsible positions practising? Christians say they are the majority; and they hold most responsible positions in Ghana. If it is true, then do we say Christianity has failed Ghana? If it is not true, then should we try others in place of the failing Christians?

Do Christians and non-Christians believe in the Hereafter at all? Or it is the concept of atonement of sins that is pushing Christians into committing more, and more sins with impunity? And they condemn Shari'a (Islamic jurispudence). It is a shame.

It is hard not to agree with you, even though 'SICK' sounds too strong.

I am caught between wishing our entire bureaucracy face some psychiatric examination prior to taking up offices and recommending that all our indicted officials for gross corruption be referred to The Hague to face crimes against Humanity.

In the absence of the brutal Coups that summarily execute certain folks for alleged economic crimes, our leaders feel unhinged, unrestrained, and are insensitively ruthless in sucking the life out of our Economy, even if their actions cause needless and preventable fatalities among us.

Long live Ghana!!!

Honestly! This is really dispicable and very disgusting. How do a group of people operate like this and expect their nation to prosper?

This looting and thievery has really taken an entrenched position in the psyche of Ghanaians and its realy shameful. I bet the perpetrators would see nothing wrong in their actions ans in their evil way of thinking they consider the GRCL as somehome belonging to their families and thus have the right to misappropriate such huge sums.

Infact something radical needs to be carried out in Ghana to change the attitude of its citizens. Such huge sums could have been used to reinvest in that laughable railway system of ours, instead we allow illiterates and semi illeterates and unpatriotic and corrupt to the core and evil literates to assume managerial positions in our institutions to suck the national economy dry to benefit themselves, families, cronies and friends. I'm really disgusted.

What was the economy of the whole country then for Railways alone to loose revenue of 8,620,000,000,000 ie 8.62 trillion cedis due to administrative errors in just two years? Please check your figures.

The GRCL is already in financial distress,it has not been able to pay its workers for the past 4 months,it cannot order common filters to carry out maintenance on its locomotives,and yet can squander all these millions of Ghana Cedis.The place has become a gold mine for its accounting officers.Ghost names has now become a normal thing in the organization.Paying the worker off and re-structuring the GRCL is long overdue.No politics this time,government should be bold and crack the whip.

If this story has any credibility, it goes to show why Ghana is still languishing in underdevelopment. The degree of kleptocracy in various levels of Administration is just too high. And unless the President intervenes with some Executive order to crash-clean the system we would not see much of any growth and modernization reaching the rural societies as well.

From arranged dubious Judgment payments that officials share with undeserving Businesses to corrupt CEPS at the Ports and Borders , from looting of Government Lands to raw thievery, like suggested in this GRCL report, from kantakerous deals to divest our State Enterprises to unrecorded payments in Cash-in-brown-paper-bags made to bid-less awardees of Contracts, etc., Ghana has been milked relentlessly by her Officials for decades.

It is possible we lose well close to 50% of our Government Revenues to the pockets of crooked Officials and their cronies.

May The Lord save us from ourselves!

Long live Ghana!!!
