Amisah Arhur Bekoe, please stop deceiving your own soul, since you know it yourself that what your are saying
is never true and does not work in NDC corrupt administration.

All NDC know is to divide and rule, it is very clear that if one is not an NDC supporter, one is not a Ghanaian or even if he or she is a Ghanaian, she or he is an enemy.

Go to Europe and other civilized countries in the world, this sort of issue does not happen. Selective Justice has today made our nation a
hopeless State.

WILL THAT INCLUDE ASHANTIS AND ASHANTI REGION? Your government has neglected Ashanti Region as if it is not part of Ghana. It seems you like our gold, cocoa, timber, and other minerals but not the people. Zero development is/has been the case for over 20 years of P/NDC rule. Is this not a recipe for disaster? Hypocrites.

Ghanaian leaders are accustomed to delivering honey speeches laden with vain optimism and promises. What they lack is commitment to look down on the ground to trace where the footsteps they provide lead the nation.

It is indisputably clear that we are a failed nation by comparison to others.It is also factual that our appointed officials lack the vision and requisite knowledge to promote progress for the nation.

Ghana shall never restore itself out of these snags unless we strictly change our constitutional and governing behaviour, bring to justice politicians who stole billions of dollars from this country - some of whom own multiple homes and incredible numbers of expensive cars parked their driveways.

I quote some beautiful writing by a very good and devoted fighter for justice and progress in Ghana :

"Fellow Ghanaians,

We have heard these stories before. A few years ago we heard of the Police Hospital with no water and even 37 Military hospitals where a toilet leakage and overflow in the bathroom was not cleaned up for days and patients wading through in order to use the bathroom. We have heard of patients detained at some regional hospital for inability to pay. We have heard of dead bodies left with no markings at mortuaries. We have heard of electricity interruptions at Korle Bu and other hospitals where doctors in the middle of a surgery have had to use the light form their cell phones to complete a medical procedure.

For God’s sake, when are we all going to say enough of this disgrace!

It is time we cared enough about our nation to stand up and speak up! We need to have enough love for ourselves and others to call our MPs and Ministers and push for them to do the right thing by our people! We need to have courage enough, those of us who have had the opportunity to be in the same schools and Universities with these our colleagues, to call them to order. Ghana has suffered for far too long under the greed and selfishness of a few who took over the nation under the guise of a revolution. It’s been over 30 years and no meaningful change seems in sight enough to keep pace with human population growth. Ghana today is still rationing water and electricity despite our gold, mineral, cocoa and oil wealth, and there is no excuse! President after President promises and never deliver! Why did we fall behind in the supply of these basics when these leaders were cutting $50,000 for their personal vehicles and $30,000 for their housing and huge travel per diem and sitting allowances from the public purse!

Public service is public service and not a reward for political participation. No! The President must step up effort to reduce the estimated 70% of the public employees being on government payroll. The productivity is simply abysmal and not justified. Ghana imposes 45% to sometimes 200% duties and taxes on all imported goods including 12.5 to 15% Value added tax and 2.5% for health insurance. Of the estimated $13.5 Billion collected at the ports alone in 2012, the 2.5% would amount to $337.5 million! How much of this money is allocated to our hospitals to pay Doctors and Nurses and provide state of the art equipment, maintenance and cleanliness? Why do MPs and executive member of our government travel overseas for medical care if we in fact are collecting such amounts for our health care facilities? Should these legislators not be ashamed for acting like the Colonial masters? Collecting thousands of dollars allowances for attending meetings and conferences!

Every human being will die one day but good health care can prolong life. Most of the 100,000 estimated deaths due to malaria every year could perhaps be avoided if our leaders and Ministers cared enough. President Mills died in a mysterious manner part of which can be attributed to poor care during his last days. Our friend’s father perhaps passed through a similar phase of poor care.

Fellow Ghanaians, let us exercise courage to confront our elected and appointed officials besides the aggravating talk on Radio talk shows. Democracy works with citizenship participation. Our constitution is defective, giving all powers to the President for appointing all agency heads, regional, district, and town chief executives. Until that is changed the blame should be on the President, currently John D. Mahama. We should call the President’s office and his officials for needed change! If calls don’t go through people should have time to march to Parliament and to the offices of the Ministries and even the President to demand explanation for water and electricity rationing over the years and the unclean and poor service conditions of our hospitals, our roads and highways! Let us love our nation enough to stand up! Stand up and ask and demand change! If we do, there is no doubt our President and his Ministers and the MPs are human also, and will do something about the deteriorating human and infrastructural conditions of our nation.

Nobody knows what will change the hearts of our law makers to do the right things. The members of Ghana’s Parliament and the President of Ghana seek their personal interests, but in a democracy it is not the all-night prayers that changes politicians. Most of them who were mature enough and grew up in Ghana in the early to mid 1960s will remember the beautiful clean hospitals, the factories making products for our retail stores, the initial beginning or our Tema township, the Harbor, the Motorway, our beautiful high schools and premier Universities with the fish ponds and swilling pools. For God’s sake we can do better today! Let us call and push our leaders to provide a clean environment for human habitation eliminating the open gutters and environmental disasters such as Agbogbloshie, and provide our people with clean health care facilities and better and more human service with our own moneys!!

We are human like everybody else and we have seen the best around the world!

Yes, we can do the same!

Go away naughty man. What about the most outrageous claim of 2013 by President Mahama that his cabinet was not aware that: Over GH¢1billion (¢10trillion) was paid out for nothing between 2009 and June 2013, by the Ministry of Finance, on the corruption-riddled youth employment programme, GYEEDA?.

Mahama claim is criminal and out of this world.

How can this happen in top echelon of governance?

Are we entering 2014 with such criminality in our records?

Are we small boys and girls in Bole kindergarten schools?

How will you do that? Since the discovery of oil in the country, dollar millionairs and even billionairs have been born, that is the pattern, the loot will continue till a "JJ Rawlings" is born to bring them to justice.
