The government came to power with an economy plan for Ghana. The plan is not working because, the government is corrupt, until they stop corruption, the economy of Ghana will continue to tank.

Points well taken---this thief with the help of Afari Gyan & corrupt judiciary propelled this unknown quantity into office----this thief has the likes of NDC gurus---allow them to tackle their own 'shit'---a lesson to all would-be thieves---leading a country isn't comparable to tending a herd of cattle--even that requires years of apprenticeship---so over to you Mahama & NDC gurus

What is KWESI BOTCHWEY saying about what the citizenry is saying on the proposed economic forum,about to be staged at Akosombo,E.R?
NDC HAS FAILED GHANA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF OUR ECONOMY,PERIOD.
Therefore,the citizenry has discerned that NDC DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING,AFTER $25 B borrowed by them to develop Ghana,just in FIVE YEARS.
I think MR.Lloyd Amoah's question about a forum to distinguish between loans for development and corruption has to be tackled at the forum,rather.

NDC HAS BLOWN IT : BIG TIME.

I should think they should bury their shame and call the experts to help TERKPER in fixing the economy,rather than hiding behind the curtains to call a national economic forum rather.
THEY THINK THEY ARE SMARTER THAN ANYBODY,BUT IT'S JUST THE OPPOSITE.

IN THE ABUNDANCE OF WATER,ONLY THE FOOL BECOMES THIRSTY:
IN THE MIDST OF PLENTY,THE COMMON MAN ON THE STREETS IS STILL SUFFERING IN THE LAND,WE CALL:
GHANA.

WHY?
Because we are governed by wrong,incompetent,ignorance people,who are nothing but CROOKS.

The fact that a party wins power does not mean all development ideas must come from the party in power alone. There is this thin called "inclusion" and that is what Ghana needs for a way forward for its development. Inclusion means reaching out to all the political parties, the general public, the Academia especially and private industry. The same approach is needed when any other political party wins power. I do not see why a person will shelf his developmental ideas and patriotism when his party is not in power? That is selfishness and and apathetic.

You couldn't have put it any better. If a party comes to power and tries its policies and they are not working, is it bad to invite others with expert ideas? Not long ago when we had dumso, people were telling the President to allow others with right ideas to help solve the problem. So if a forum is being called for experts to put their heads together to solve our economic problems, is it bad or a waste of time? If he has no ideas then he should just shut up and wait for the think tanks to do their job. If he is a whole lecturer and does not see the importance of such a forum then am wondering what stuff he teaches his students.

When Dr Bawumiah spoke about the economy he was abused. So who is to come from outside NDC and speak about how the Economy should be run for All-knowing NDC Deputy Ministers, Propagandas and Communicators etc to abuse him like they did to Dr Bawumiah? If you talk any thing about the economy NDC people will tell you that you are making politics about it. NDC has their Economic Policy fixed in their Manifesto let them use it.

When people were saying that the four years for SHS should be maintained NDC people said in their manifesto they stated that when they win power they will make SHS three years so they went ahead. Now look at what the three years has done to our children.
How many of the three year graduates had admission into our Universities? NDC just came in to spoil every thing for the Nation.

Where are the Fiifi Koties? During Kuffour’s time Fiifi was talking as if he was the best economist in the world. “ NDC wish for war, now they have it”; fight now and redeem the economy. Where is Allotey? Ask him what to do for the economy.

Well if you want NDC Communicators to abuse you and give you names attend the Economic forum and blow your horns.

NDC is desperate; they're funny people and party. Didn't they promise Ghanaians of a "better Ghana" during their election campaigns?

Tony Aidoo went on air to declare that NDC will not continue with NPP initiated projects else people will tell them they don't have any ideas. Did the NDC not lambaste Dr. Bawumia when he pointed out that the economic situation is getting bad and needed fixing? Not long had he made his opinion and statement had NDC's arrogant and disrespectful minister, Fiifi Kwetey rain insults on the astute statistician and economist, saying he's empty and knows nothing.

Now the evidence is clear; Dr. Bawumia has been vindicated. He was right! Things have been going bad for Ghanaians since late Prez. Atta-Mills' time. Sensing danger, the NDC pressed Mills' neck, to replace him with an "Aplanke" who doesn't have any damn experience. The results has been so horrible and worrying!

Now they [NDC] want people so come on board. I've always mentioned that election fraud has been the bane of Ghana's economic woes. The EC an SC helped in a great way to foist NDC will on Ghanaians and we're seeing awful results.

John "Aplanke Prez" Mahama and his NDC better quit the scene for a better man to take control. Nana Akufo-Addo and Dr. Bawumian have the solution to put Ghana on its feet economically.

It's funny Mahama and his NDC challenged Nana's Free SHS programs saying it won't be possible. Now seeing that people have gotten angry with their bad showing, they're now saying that they'll implement Nana's Free SHS, and have even added "Free Shoes" on top of that. Mama Mia! Mahama Mia! Wonderful world!
