ALL OF YOU MUST NOTE THAT BY THE DIVISIVE, FOOLISH AND BUSHIATIC POLITICS BEING PRACTICED IN GHANA, NDC GOVERNMENT CAN NEVER CALL ON FORMER PRESIDENT KUFUOUR TO ASSIST IN RAISING SUCH AN AMOUNT FOR DEVELOPMENTAL PURPOSE.

TWO HEADS THEY SAY ARE BETTER THAN ONE. KUFUOUR CAN ASSIST BUT ARROGANCE AND EGOISM ON THE PART OF NDC CANNOT ALLOW HIM TO DO SO. LET US THEREFORE CHANGE THIS SORT OF DIRTY POLITICS, COME TOGETHER TO DEVELOP THE COUNTRY FOR OUR CHILDREN AND THOSE YET UNBORN.

The unity of our dear country must not be compromised for any political gain. We must respect every tribe in the country and avoid playing on the minds of those who have not been lucky to have any formal education for our selfish earns. Any politician who is sensible and love GHANA must stop pointing at where TRIBAL POLITICS might have come from, because that will not take us anywhere. Another person will come and point at another direction. The fact is that today we all know it is not a good thing to do and must be discouraged, rather than use it to our selfish advantage. The unity of our dear nation is more important than the survival of any political grouping. Ghana has been there long before any of these parties (which have a lot of selfish and insincere individuals) were formed. Ghana will be there when they are long gone. Let us sincerely pledge our loyalty to GHANA rather than a political party. How sincere are most of the members of these parties when it comes to stewardship with things of the nation? RESPECT AND EMBRACE EVERY TRIBE. In that lies the STRENGTH of OUR NATION. With that we will DEVELOP, HAVE PEACE and be WEALTHY. LONG LIVE GHANA.

(Reuters) - Senegal secured pledges worth about $7.8 billion at a donor conference that began in Paris on Monday to help kick-start a development plan aimed at doubling economic growth rates over the next decade.

Senegal is one of West Africa's most stable democracies. Its president, Macky Sall, has been praised for anti-corruption measures he has implemented since winning office in 2012.

But his government is under pressure to create more jobs and diversify the economy.

The development plan being presented at a gathering of private and public sector institutions in Paris this week had sought 2.97 trillion CFA francs to help finance development over the next four years, but managed to raise 3.729 trillion CFA francs ($7.8 billion).

"This shows that Senegal has won the confidence of donors, but that means we do not have the right to fail this trust," Sall told reporters late on Monday. "We have to make sure we put this plan in motion."

The plan aims to boost output from agriculture, fisheries and agro-industry, as well as the mining sector and tourism. The government also hopes to make Senegal a logistics hub for West Africa's market of some 300 million people.

Sall said the immediate objective was to ensure the former French colony's economy grows about 7 percent annually over the next 4 years from the current 4.6 percent and reduce the budget deficit to 3.9 percent from 5.4 percent.

"About 46 percent of financing is for infrastructure, and we're initially going to focus on 27-28 projects," Sall said, highlighting in particular interest from the World Bank, French Development Agency, the Islamic Development Bank and China to finance rail projects.

Authorities say the 10-year "Emerging Senegal" plan will cost just over $21 billion and will eventually target doubling economic growth.

Unlike most nations in the region, Senegal has never seen a coup. Power has changed hands several times during mostly peaceful elections.
