How does the private sector help grow the economy when private companies are being taxed to death and there are no incentives to help grow businesses? Mahama put on your thinking cap and stop focusing on producing children but instead on Ghana.

I keep saying Mahama is a mental midget and people don't understand. How can you blame your budget deficit on past governments? If you cut your coat according to your size, you cannot blame the "hand me down" from your big brother.

Mahama, you over promised and that is why you have the budget deficit.

Secondly you depended on the 3 billion chinese loan which has not been delivered but we are paying fees on.

You promised International Airports for Tamale and Kumasi.

You promised a new University for Eastern Region.

You promised Airports renovations and new ones including another International airport in Accra at Prampram

You promised to build new hospitals at all the regional capitals at a time government workers salaries alone accounts for 75% of the revenue. Stop blaming previous governments for your foolishness.

Mahama can run a balanced budget without promising to build 200 new secondary schools and other projects. He over promised and that is why we are running a budget deficit.

Presdo should come again, which governments is he trying to blame? Did all the ills of Woyome, SADA, Suba (they now relocated to to Frema House, former Energy Commission building on Spintex road)and spurious judgement debts happened under any of these goverments? For equalization the so called judgement debt commission, chaired by a die-in-the- wool NDC apparachik is trying hard and fast to cover up the stench and corrution under the present governmet by making references to the Drill Ship saga and digging deep to resurrect so called corruption from the time of Guggisberg.

This wanker parading around as the President of The Republic of Ghana must have his head properly screwed on. Which past governments is he referring to.Having been a key part of the Mills government for the full four-year term,and having gone one full year of his own term,making five whole years,he is blaming others. What a dumbo!
He is fully responsible for the deficit,having created,looted and shared the tax-payer's money through Isofoton,Waterville,Woyome,Gyeeda,SADA,
Asontoba,etc,etc.
He should shut his bloody mouth.
He will live to regret,one day. Mark my word.

this mantra of "private sector being the engine of growth" should be put in perspective. governments keep using this term but i sincerely believe they do not really know or understand what it means to make the private sector engine of growth.

and the reason is simple. only businessmen can grow business. governments must therefore have in their economic management teams very powerful and insightful business magnates who understand the rules of the game.

am sorry but civil servants turned politicians who may not have owned even a kiosk may have no idea what it means to grow business. sometimes it is not all in the books. honestly if you look at the political terrain, the players are mainly teachers and other civil servants who have found new love in "politics" to jump out of poverty and one wonders whether in this fast paced global economy these crop of people provide the needed power and direction to ensure change.

presently governments are suspicious of "business tycoons" and business tycoons don't trust governments so the engagements are superfluous.

Is Mahama serious and does he think? Look, since the days of Nkrumah through NPP, the National debt was at least $9 billion dollars but when NDC under Mills and Mahama came to the throne, that have ballooned the debt to over $40 billion so, who was to blame?

I have said several times that the destiny of a nation shouldn't be in the hands of truants and fools who cannot think. Ghana is reeling under the curse of these societal misfits.

Why was Mahama given the mandate to rule? He is blaming the past government but he has forgotten the promise he made that he and his party can fix the problems facing the nation and who are those who are hampering his efforts? His own party members who are conniving with foreign entities to dupe the nation.

How much Mills/Mahama contribute and how much Mahama added so far? You should blame yourself and clean your own mess.I hope you are not dreaming of your continuity in 2016.

If you can't perform as you'd promised Ghanaians, kindly step aside for a better man to take control of the nation's business than blame your own failures on NPP and Nana Akufo-Addo etc. It's a disgrace for you to be occupying the seat of president without living up to expectation. Please leave the seat for a better man.

Just tell us what you are doing to grow the economy of Ghana? It is not where you started but where you end is what will define your presidency. Determine the failures of the previous governments and model your plans to make them better. That is what the US president Obama is doing- make the failures of the former president better and he is succeeding to make them better and with a few help here and there, he is succeeding and that is why the US economy is growing. Do not just talk about doing something in the following year. At that point you become like the vulture which promise to build a nest when the rain stop only to find itself doing nothing when the rain stops.

Has this so called president lost his sense of reasoning? I hope so. What was Ghana's total debt, both external and domestic before he became the vice presisident? He should not get me mad.
