CRAZY NDC SYCOPHANTS DOUBTED MY WORDS!! NOW THE REALITY HAS DAWNED!!!!-----MAHAMA AND HIS BUNCH OF CROOKISH INCOMPETENT CORRUPT MONSTERS CAN NEVER DO IT! NO! NOT IN A MILLION YEARS!!!

IS THIS THE GHANA K4 HANDED OVER TO NDC GREEDY CORRUPT BASTARDS??? ---------------WHO CAN PROVE KWASI ADADE WRONG? I AM SAYING, THAT, GHANAIANS VOTED FOOLISHLY!!-- IS THIS NDC'S BETTER GHANA? THEN WHAT WILL THEIR BITTER GHANA BE?--- IF THIS IS NDC'S PRAISE THE LORD, THEN, WHAT WILL THEIR CRUCIFY HIM BE?--- GHANA'S PROBLEM, TODAY, IS NOTHING BUT THE RESULT OF CRIMINAL NDC'S ALLIANCE TO CREATE, LOOT AND SHARE POLICY***---------------*** "IT IS ONLY A FOOL, WHO ALLOWS HIS TESTICLES TO BE STEPPED ON, TWICE"-------GO OUT THERE AND RECEIVE YOUR REWARD, ALL GHANAIANS. GO AND PAY THE PRICE FOR YOUR FOOLISHNESS. YOU DON'T GIVE A SECOND MANDATE TO AN INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, NO!! NOT AT ALL, THAT IS ABOMINATION IN DEMOCRACY, VERY SUICIDAL. HAD NDC MANAGED THE ECONOMY WELL, THESE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THE SITUATION. NDC HAS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES GHANA HAS EVER HAD. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED MORE LOANS THAN ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT IN OUR HISTORY, BUT THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS. GHANAIANS SHOULD HAVE ENJOYED SOME ECONOMIC PROGRESS AT THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY. THE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS SO CORRUPT. TO RESCUE THE SITUATION, THE POOR IS NOW BEING FORCED TO PAY. THIS IS INJUSTICE. THIS IS NOT THE GHANA KUFFOUR HANDED OVER TO NDC, HE EVEN ADDED FRESH CRUDE OIL WELLS. NPP TRANFORMED GHANA TO A MIDDLE INCOME ECONOMY WITH LIMITED RESOURCES BUT GOOD POLICIES. NDC IS WOEFULLY REVERSING THESE NPP ACHIEVEMENTS. GHANA'S CURRENT SITUATION IS VERY DISTURBING. WHEN THE HISTORY IS TOLD, IT WILL BE SAID THAT GHANAIANS WERE OFFERED FREE SECONDARY EDUCATION, IMPROVED UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL HOUSING FOR THE POOR AND AN EGALITARIAN SOCIETY BUT 50% SAID NO THANK YOU. THEY PREFERRED ECONOMIC "WOYOMISATION" , PHANTOM DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, PHILANDERERS FOR LEADERS, MACHIAVELLIAN DISRESPECTFUL CORRUPT LOUTS AND A VISIONLESS EVIL GOVERNMENT. I AM SO PROUD I VOTED FOR NANA AKUFFO ADDO.

It looks the current president has actually reduced the number from 1,345 presidential staffers from when it was under Kuffuor to about half though still high.
It is recalled under the then President Kuffuor, it became 'Yaa Gye Yen Mann', to wit; we have taken over our nation.
Chopp-chopp and nyafu-nyafu became the order of the day coupled with pure ethnocedntrism and cronyism.
But thanks to this Govt, the number though still high has been cut to half.

I have been saying this for thousand times. Why so many people? It was the same at Ghana Telecom(GT) where we had 6400 employees and the company was losing $200 million a year.
Vodafone bought 75% of GT and trimmed the workforce to 2500 and the company is running efficiently and making "boucoup" of profits.
That is why the country is in doldrums. A country of 24 million population with 650,000 government employees, that is one government employee per 30 Ghanaians compared to USA where the ratio is one federal employee per 300 USA citizens.
Unless we stop job for the boys, we wilk continue to be in this mess.

***NOTHING**--except bleeding the country to death from our meager resources.
Why do we need these many Ministers of State and presidential advisors—from one government to the other?? What do they do all day for the country, since our problems seem to multiply on hourly basis? Can't Parliament reduce the number of "Ministers of State" that a president can appoint, since there are substantive ministers and Deputy ministers at every ministry or at all the MDAs?
Why are African governments so much interested in QUANTITY instead of QUALITY of personnel?? OK, here is the answer to my own question: There aren't many PRIVATE sector jobs in many African countries, because of their own stupidity and foolishness, so the PUBLIC sector (i.e., the government) is where the jobs are and that's why. THESE PEOPLE CANT FIND JOBS ELSEWHERE in the country and flock to beg for government jobs.
But, here is the problem: Ghana CAN'T afford these many unskilled, uneducated and empty headed Negroes, who are not producing anything tangibles for the country, but pushing files and paper around on daily basis. Is the do-nothing parliament also listening? CUT the DAMN thing Down to size and save Ghana some money.

HOW DO YOU MAKE GH MORE ECONOMICALLY COMPETITIVE, U ASK?
A/upgrade and improve infrastructure: road systems,airports, ports, the entire infrastructure, and IT infrastructure IN GH IS LAGGING. IMAGINE THE JOBS THIS WILL CREATE FOR ALL THESE YOUTHS?
B/R&D:research and development being carried out within GH. GOVT MUST PROVIDE R&D tax credit for all companies who OPERATE/HVE operations within GH.
C/CORPORATE TAX BREAKS TO MULTINATIONALS WHO WISH TO USE GH AS THEIR HEADQUARTERS TO DO BUSINESS. THIS WILL HELP GH REMAIN globally engaged through trade and investment ACTIVIITES.
D/OFFER MORE CASH SAVINGS INCENTIVES FOR THE PPL OF GH THRU THE BANKS, MEDIA. DO THIS THRU FINANCIAL LITERACY CAMPAIGNS, CASH SAVINGS STRATEGIES WITH INTEREST E.G TFSA, RRSP, MUTUAL FUNDS, GIC'S, STOCKS/GSX ETC
E/FACTORIES: TURN MORE RAW MATERIALS TO FINISHED GOODS FOR EXPORT. IMPORT LESS.
IF GH WANTS TO RESOLVE ITS BUDGET DEFICIT, CHANGE THE MACROECONOMIC VARIABLES OF CONSUMPTION AND SAVINGS.
STRENGHTEN COMMERCE FACTORS SURROUNDING THE ECONOMY SO THAT THEY INDIRECTLY AFFECT THE POSITIVE STRENGTH OF THE CEDI. RATHER THAN TAKING SPECIFIC CEDI REVAMP MEASURES
F/I THINK ITS TIME THE BOG AND THE MIN OF FINACE MADE THIS ILLEGAL. IF YOU ACEPT FOREIGN CURRENCY AS LEGAL TENDER IN EXCHANGE FOR GOODS OR SERVICES IN GH. YOU THE ACCEPTEE MUST BE ARRESTED AND MUST SPEND AT LEAST 3MTHS IN JAIL,PLUS A FINE OF TRIPLE THE AMOUNT OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE YOU ACCEPTED.
THIS ALONE WILL CAUSE BUSINESSES LIKE HOTELS ETC FROM ACCEPTING OR PRICING IN DOLLARS OR ANY NON GH CURRENCY. THIS INCLUDES CHURCES TOO...LOL
G/WIDEN THE TAX BASE. CANT YOU SEE WAT WESTERN NATIONS ARE DOING?

You have been in power ^ Years. stop blaming NPP for your rubbish attempt at governing this country.
John Mahama has rather increased the number substantially because former President Kuffour had 427 Presidential Staffers. Even this was seen, those days, as too huge a figure.
Illiterate trokosi kola lying again. It is always ndc employing tribesmen. Rawlings had 1776 staffers with 1700 being trokosis.
K4 staffers were far less than that of Mahama. Even if it was bigger than NDC have taken into consideration quantum of salaries and allowance they are now taken.
Check your facts well. Kufour had 427 presidential staffers and not 1345.Even with that number he met hasrh critcism from social commentators.
Are you just throwing numbers out here just to lessen the imapct on the nation? What is this equalization stance that most people take? What is wrong is wrong! As the article stated, this must be filed on an annual basis. Can ...

Pls they are not ghost names,making room for party foot soldiers at all cost is the cause of these problems.They are all hungry people who are looking for something to steal.
