Do you think the economist magazine is a cheap magazine. It cost me $92 a year, even with a student discount. The fact is that (Agyemang) all you see is NPP that, NDC this. The country is sinking, but due to your lack of knowledge all think about is NDC & NPP. The gov't is spending more than it takes in. Wake up!!! The Economist make more revenue than Ghana, in business wish.

The government of Ghana should cut waste, there are too many people who are employed by the gov't with no purpose. The best way to turn around the economy is to make the private sector the backbone of our economy not the gov't who employed over 70% of the work force in GHANA. With all that Oil, Gold that not mean nothing, if you don't have the proper initiative to implement it.

According to the Economist, " whereby the civil service is invariable packed with friend" this has been a long problem in Ghana since the time I was born, and it is part of the problem way back since independence. Is about time we focus on the future, and separate the 3 powers of our gov't. Basically, what the article is talking about is that, it about time we stop all that silly divide, and conger. And put thing in prospective. All that NDC this, NPP that is sinking Ghana. Vote on the issues. Well 19 years of JJ poor education system is now playing part.

Take Oteng Ajei, he was Minister for Energy under Atta Mills, now he is Minister for Environment and destroying the environment with GMO poison. Take Buah, he was deputy to oteng Adjei at Energy under Mills, now he is Minister for Energy giving away our oil to Ivory Coast and believing in superstition for Aboadze plant. Take Tekper, he was deputy to Dufour at Finance and now he is the substantive Minister with no clue on the economy. Take Hannah tetteh, she was Minister for Trade and Industry under Mills where she supervised the decline of industries in Ghana, now she is the Minister for Foreign Affairs with no clear policy or interest in advancing Ghana's interest. Take Nii Ashietey, he was Greater Accra Regional minister who disrespected police officers and now Minister for Labour and Social welfare. Who is new in this non-reading non-thinking government?

You can not isolate the politics from the reality on the ground.The economist is a capitalist creation and ideologically aligned to IMF and western prescription to economics.We remember the the bitter IMF packages under the guise of structural adjustments and the havoc they wrought on our economy and the hardship to our people.These were all done in the interest of their economies and not the interest of Ghanians.We should not assume that because it is a foreign prescription it is neutral.We must always take it with a pinch of salt since their motive is always imperialistic and actuated by advantage.It did not matter that economic activities came to a standstill for nearly a year because of Akufo but rather chose to praise him for that.I wish I know the profile of the one who wrote the article to see whether he lived up to that profile or was influenced by his politics.

Look here, you senseless material, are you so happy and comfortable with the level of our national economical instability, thievery, corruption, deceitful, dishonesty, lies, incompetency, poor living condition of Ghanaian people, clueless, high level of unemployment, rape, loot and share such as Woyome gargantuan crime, fabrication of stories, unsubstantiated allegation
against political opponents and serious crime being going round in the
country?

Will you be comfortable and feel happy
if it is NPP politicians in power and
may have brought our country to this level, and will you be expected to praise NPP for this sort of administration, when you want people around the globe to praise corruption Head Dramani Mahama and his
NDC bunch of crooks administration?

So-called agyeman, you are just an idiot, a thief and stupid fool, you are the kind of crooks who are encouraging politicians to rob this country for their own selfish interest if you are not one of them, and because politicians in our country needs such hopeless people like you to support them as they go about stealing
from the Tax Payers for their own selfish interest.

Swine like you, Kwabena Adjei that another crook NDC Chairman who had his house on hammer when was on opposition today has 15 houses for himself, 3 of
them three tie story buildings, 5 in
South Africa, 4 in Europe to be precise in London and many of them in the United Arab Emirate, 6 fleet of Cars, 3 V8 Government provided vehicles, living in Government Bungalow without paying any bills or even rent we are asking you how many of these facilities are you enjoying under Dramani Mahama NDC administration if you are not part of their loot and share gangsters?

Look, stupid Cow, look at the European
countries, no one supports or encourages a politician in their diabolical activities, instead politicians are rather scared of the
people they are Governing, because
should they lord themselves over the
ordinary citizenry who voted for them
when the Law close in to them they
will not be left off the hook, but
look at you idiot, supporting a politician and encouraging them more
to rob the people who voted for them,
when such voters cannot get food to
eat, where to sleep, can't go to school, can't get employment, Doctors,
Teachers and many other democratic institutional employees cannot be paid
when these so-called politicians
are enjoying at the expense of the
Tax Payers, why are you like that, are you an idiot of that kind?

STUPID MONKEY LIKE YOU BETTER FUCK OFF
WE DO NOT NEED PEOPLE SUCH AS YOU
TO BE CLAIM AS GHANAIAN.

A woman suspects her husband is cheating on her. One day, she dials her home and a strange woman answers. The woman says, " Who is this?" "This is the maid," answered the woman. "We don't have a maid", said the woman. The maid says, "I was hired this morning by the man of the house. The woman says, "Well, this is his wife. Is he there?" The maid replied, "he is upstairs in the bedroom with someone who I figured was his wife." The woman is fuming. She says to the maid, "Listen, would you like to make $50,000?" The maid says, "What will I have to do?"The woman tells her, "I want you to get my gun from the desk, and shoot the jerk and the witch he's with." The maid puts the phone down; the woman hears footsteps and the gun shots. The maid comes back to the phone, "What do I do with the bodies?" The woman says, "Throw them in the swimming pool." Puzzled, the maid answers, "But there's no pool here." A long pause and the woman says, "Is this 832-4821?"

This is not even about the removal of old guards. The cancerous tumour called the NDC party, which is weaving an intricate web of destruction in our socio-politico-economic and development goals and aspirations, as a country, needs to be sliced open, and with surgical precision, removed from our body politic in 2016, to stem the tide of political, economic, leadership and governance ineptitude and incompetence, which have culminated to send the country on the path of retrogression. They lack the capacity to address the issues and that is a fact.

It is almost 'suicidal' to comment on Ghanaweb, because irrespective of what one says, the usual party-affiliated hacks, will descend on the person. One has to support their party, and sing the praises of its leaders, present and past. One cannot be objective and neutral.

Nonetheless, the debate about Ghana's economy is necessary, useful and fascinating.

This time, we shall put corruption aside and concentrate on waste - waste in government expenditure.

There are at the last count 23 ministries in Ghana. These are departments of government headed by a minister. The minister will be assisted by deputies, and so on.

Some of the departments are very unnecessary, and duplicate the functions of others. For example, there is Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Information, Ministry of Tourism and the modernization of the Capital.

What is the work of the ministry of information. Is it advertising Ghana to the world, and promoting tourism?

We have the following ministries; Ministry of Road Transport, Ministry of works and housing, Ministry of manpower, Youth and Employment, Ministry of Environment and Science, and Ministry of Lands Forestry and Mines. Surely, Road Transport, environment, Lands and Forestry all have something in common.

Can we merge the work of some of these inter related ministries to save money, money we do not have. Is it necessary to have a ministry to modernize Accra, for example?

I could go on and on. Remember, it is not the existence of these departments per se, it is the Cost involved in running these ministries which is the problem.

In my humble opinion, there is too much waste of money and other resources like human. Merge some of these ministries to save money, and promote efficiency in government.

The Economist magazine is a magazine of facts, if you have the change to read it. It tells it like the way it is. So many years of subscribing to it since I was in GRAD school, not much attention has been pay to Ghana. The fact is that it is reporting what it see, it is about time we as people pay attention. But how many MPs read the magazine or will read this article. There are many people who want to come home and invest, but with this climate, how do I as an investor get my ROI when everything is not going in my favor as an investor. ( Go to Economist.Com) If our MPs read such magazine it will help them shape the way countries are investing in their people. Let stop all that stupid corruption, using people against each other whiles they loot behind the close doors. Let get ride of all the old PNDC they have no vision, what did they do for 19 years in power. NOTHING. Ghana is sinking, and you out there talking about we NDC this, NPP that. Let vote for people with vision, not just "Yaa be Dee kaka," how do a country move up with his ideology?

Anyone who is serious about changing Ghana must read this report and act. The country tired of the cycle of the same people who take turns to come and loot. They have developed the mentality that nothing is going to happen to them and so the plundering goes on. Take JJ,PV Obeng and Tsikata as an examples, we might as well donate the country to them for their personal consumption. I know Mahama pays JJ under the table.
A real revolution in Ghana will not come until the 1992 constitution is thrown out of the window to curtail the senseless power and insulation of the president and his cronies. After all, those who put it in place are the architects and source of the current mood of the country. We must at least, make the effort to turn things around since we have failed to kill them. How long can we endure this since they won't go away and keep coming back for more of the destruction. They never say no so why should we sit back and watch them slowly send us to our graves prematurely. All we need is to BE BOLD
