How can a tiny country as Ghana have nearly 300 ministers in parliament with positions that are useless and unproductive? Most of their jobs benefits no one but themselves.

When did you Mr Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu realise that we need only 20 ministers? Did this just occur to you or when you were appointed as one of the over 70 ministers under President Kufour? This hypocrisy by suddenly-appearing-to-be so clean politicians must cease. Next time make sure you participate in the vetting of ministerial nominees and then drive home your point there. In the same vain we need less MPs so that we don't have to contend with this headache of vampires sucking our resources on virtually a silver platter for only "noise-making" in the Ghanaian legislature.

The mere fact that one government had so many ministers doesn't mean we should maintain the same huge figure when the nation can not pay such salar. We have to learn from each other. We have to do away with partisanship when taking crucial decision about our nation. This is what the American Congress do when solving economic problems about their great nation. Both Democrats and Republicans disagree to agree. They make the best choice for the masses.

How true is it that 60% of government expenditures goes to pay salaries of ministerial officials? What then is left for the teachers, nurses, ssecurity services and others? Check your facts because the statistic is simply wrong.

In the first place Ghana does not need close to 180 MPs, 15 Supreme Court Justices and so on? There is waste everywhere. Some people are getting paid for just loitering around. There is too much dependency in Ghana.

We need lower taxes that will encourage people to invest in job creation jobs. Taxes from Assemblies, VAT and so on. Ghana is one of the highest taxed countries in the world. And this is not good for business.

Yes, Ghana needs only 20 Ministries only when NPP is opposition. Late 90s, the cry was Rawlings had too many Ministers. Ghana needed only 30 Ministers etc; however, when NPP came to power in 2001, Mr Kufuor, who went every nook nook and canny preaching that sermon, appointed more ministers than Rawlings did. When Kufuor was questioned why more Ministers than his predecessor, his reply was he said that when he was that when he was not in Government, he did not know the magnitude of the work. Today, only 5yrs in opposition, NPP is repeating the same sermon. What has changed, Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu?

Although the Economists may be saying the truth about the size of government, I do not understand why now?

Before the Busia regime, there were no Deputy Minister positions in past governments, were there any before? Busia regime created new ministries and inflated the number to about what we see today. Henceforth, the number of ministries keep on increasing to create jobs for political party functionaries.

What has heppened to the Constitutional Reform Committee appointed by late Prof. Mills to amend the Constitution? What does Ghana Constitution say about the number of ministries that any government should have, irrespective of of the political party? Hmmm! It is interesting - NDC should cut down the number of ministries/ministers and deputies, whilst NPP maintains the high number - is that what the Economists are saying?

Look at who is talking from the ass. Yes!!.Did Kufour had 20 ministers?. Where was your monkey ass to suggest this to your 50c chains president. Kufour played the kokofu football to the fullest and no one said nothing. All you greedy bastards were marauding with Kufour and now you are giving this cockeye suggestions. This (CORRUPTION) is not a confluence of unrelated coincidence in the country. Kufour said corruption is old as old as anything in Ghana. And so it will be devilishly hard to fight. Please, I beg keep this your sanctimonious suggestion and your foolish garbage within the circus aerialist NPP. Who does not recognize the altruistic purpose and pretentious ways to do Mahama and NDC in. Your constant securitizing and with harsh instantaneous judgments can,t bring back your weed head and world class womanizer Nana Akofu Addo. This narcotic people party has numerous inexplicable issues which therefore, suggest some kind of eminent danger for the flag-bearer selection for the next election. The rest of the country is watching to see with waxed nostalgic who will be the gullible being. Forget about NDC problems and cry your own cry.

Kwasia! so why did NPP have like 70+ ministers. Please think before you talk you idiot. we have 10 regions even if we put 10 substantive and 10 deputies we have reached your target. we have roads and highways 1, mines and energy 2, works and housing/ water resources 3, environment 4, transport 5,agriculture 6, fishries 7, defence 8, interior 9, foriegn affairs 10, chief of staff 11, attorney general 12, youth and sports 13 the list goes on. even with that and deputies will baloon the figure to 24 on the assumption that they all have 1 deputy which is not always the case and highly unlikely not forgetting the all important ministry of health and the finance and economic planning. Please don't come and do any populist politics here. Even average companies have like 5 managers let alone running a state institution like a ministry. I agree that jobs for boys exist and have to be looked at especially the 3 wisemen but don't tell me that 20 ministers can overlook our affairs.
