Now the facts are emerging from the archives of Oxford University and they are shocking!

Nana Addo's father sent him to England to do his A\Ls. Even though he did not do well his father got him a place in the prestigious Oxford University. But as a spoilt child Nana would not study but went from party to night-clubs to party etc. One night he was so boozed and high that he went straight into the female wing of the hostel and raped a female student after threatening her with a kitchen knife. Unfortunately the girl managed to trigger an alarm and Nana was caught and when his pockets were searched by the police they found rolls and rolls of wee. Of course he was instantly dismissed.

His father therefore got a place for him in Legon. Here the chilling was even worse. Being from a big family the lecturers just had to watch him do what he liked and at the end gave him a third class degree!

Useful lessons from his appearance before the SC panel some months back!
First of all,this 'brat' can hop from one radio stn. to another because he has gooten himself a good spouse,who is bringing home the bacon,and allowing this 'unemployed graduate' to indulge in what he is really good at: Cheap political talk,while making very little sense! While many of his 'street-fighting' colleagues have realized the wisdom in obtaining a good and well-rounded education so they can support a family in the future,this misguided 'baby-face persists in remaining an 'errand-boy' for a while longer.
I can visualize how this pseudo anti-corruption crusader would go after state resources,to make up for the lost time,should his party ever come to power!

Sammy, stop blaming NDC for what is going on in Ghana today. It was the same thing during 2000/2008. The only difference was that orga Kuffour was able to do better than Mahama. The level of corruption was almost the same.

THIS SHORT-TERM QUANTITATIVE EASING POLICY ADOPTED BY GHANA'S CLUELESS CENTRAL BANK GOVERNOR IS USELESS AND VISIONLESS.

THE COMMONSENSE POLICY IS, LIKE HUGO CHAVEZ AND OTHERS DID, BUY BACK ALL THOSE INDUSTRIES DIVESTED BY GHANA'S CORRUPT HEADS OF STATE OVER THE YEARS, NATIONALIZE THEM AND PUT THEM INTO PRODUCTIVE USE, USING HANDS-ON MANAGEMENT PRACTICES DEVOID OF CORRUPTION FROM THE TOP DOWN.

THE NEXT STEP IS TO MAKE TAXES, TARIFFS AND IMPORT DUTIES AFFORDABLE FOR ALL, BECAUSE WHEN TAXES ARE TOO HIGH, YOU TAKE TOO MUCH MONEY FROM PEOPLE'S POCKETS IN TAXES, REDUCING CONSUMER SPENDING AND THEIR PURCHASING POWER.

ALSO WHEN TAXES ARE TOO HIGH, YOU CREATE AVENUES FOR TAX EVASION, AND THAT'S WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW IN GHANA WHERE MUCH OF GOV'T POTENTIAL TAXES ARE DRASTICALLY REDUCED, AND THE LEFTOVERS SHARED BY THE TAXMAN AND "TAX PAYER".

NOW, THE NATIONALIZED INDUSTRIES WILL CREATE EMPLOYMENT, KICK-START A CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME OR LIQUIDITY IN THE ECONOMY.

THIS IS CALLED A "MULTIPLIER EFFECT" IN JSS ECONOMICS.

BY EXTENSION, THIS WILL GENERATE MUCH-NEEDED TAX REVENUE ACROSS EVERY SECTOR OF THE ECONOMY OF GHANA.

NOW, THE INVOLVEMENT OF ALL SECTORS OF THE GHANAIAN ECONOMY IN THE "CIRCULAR FLOW OF INCOME" IS CALLED "ECONOMIES OF SCALE" BY HORIZONTALLY AND/OR VERTICALLY INTEGRATING ALL OF GHANA'S VALUE ADDED NATURAL RESOURCES.

TAX REVENUES LIKE INCOME TAX, PURCHASE TAX, CORPORATE TAX, ETC. WILL ALL BE GENERATED WHEN THERE'S A CIRCULAR FLOW AS INDICATED ABOVE.

THIS SIMPLE ECONOMIC POLICIES I'VE POSTULATED ABOVE WILL STABILIZE THE CEDI, AND THE REST WILL BE HISTORY.

THE US$, AS WE ALL KNOW, IS EASILY ATTRACTED BY VIBRANT ECONOMIES, SO IF THE ABOVE HAPPENS IN GHANA'S ECONOMY, INFLOWS OF THE US$ INTO GHANA'S ECONOMY WILL BE AUTOMATIC, AND AT ONE STAGE, NOBODY WILL EVEN BOTHER ABOUT BUYING AND HOARDING THE US$ AND OTHER CONVERTIBLES IN ANTICIPATION OF WINDFALL RETURNS ON CONVERTIBLE CURRENCIES HOLDINGS.

THIS IS NOT TEXT-BOOK ECONOMICS.

THIS IS COMMON SENSE SSS ECONOMICS ADOPTED BY DR. NKRUMAH OF BLESSED MEMORY.

We need a code of ethics in government and this must be supplied to government officials as a manual.

Conflict situation are arising. The following points must be noted.

1) If you are the head of any organisation you can't have a family member or a concubine working under you.

2) Two people who are related by blood or by marriage can not work in the same department of an organization.

3) Any auditor who is unable to detect any malfeasance in any government organization within two accounting years must lose his job.

These points must be noted.

Grow up Awuku, you're still behaving like a kid who enjoys making allegation but unable to substantite even if the perception could be right. I am holding no brief for corrupt people in our society and I denounce it in no uncertainty. But sadly, at the same time 'no one is guilty until it has been proven so'. Just take up the challenge to prove it within the due process as a citizen.

Political Visionaries needed for Ghana, not cheap talkatives!
Sammy: did Lula da Silva in Brazil have all the so-called book knowledge that you guys seems to be so vested?
Look around the world and you will realize that for all the "book-lon" their SYCOPHANT admirers and thieves, we cannot progress as a nation.
It is easier said than done.
Which of these Political leaders can't actually claim a realistic long term development vision and development agenda that transformed regional powers/hubs like Brazil and UAE?
What Ghana needs is deep thinkers and visionaries for the prestige and interest of the nations.
What we have now is a bunch of new era “Aka Blays" whose only skill is how best to ruin the nation's coffers to enrich themselves and their cronies. Yes, CAREER POLITICAL THIEVES who are spurred on by our NAIVE PARTY AND TRIBAL affiliations!
Is time for a real PARADIGM shift in the political thought process of the once "STAR" of Africa!
Who in Ghana will be forward-thinking like the Emir of UAE who contemplated the day oil money will run out, and thought conceived of a business hub in the ME. On oh, yes! How many Ghanaians brag about their trips to or connections in the UAE? If you are curious, read “How Dubai Became Dubai”?
Can we have a social conscience like Lulo da Silva whose self-awareness of where he came from spurred him to save Brazil from its daemons ensure sustained growth? Yea, I bet we are looking forward to Rio 2016? Do you ever stop to wonder who Brazil unshackled itself form “C” and “Favella” problems to become a world economic powerhouse?
Can we have from Ghana an icon to be referred to as "a man/woman with audacious ambitions to alter the balance of power among nations”?
THINK, THINK, but this time THINK for Ghana and not your lousy bank accounts, pockets, malls, houses, cars and cronies. Twa Omanye aba!

Visioning for leadership may be defined as the process of forming a mental image in order to set goals, make plans, and solve problems that guide the organization into the future.
