5 years is too long; we can only give NPP 2 years to do the clean-up job and to show us positive results by the end of the other 2 years.

3. You don't tell the people what to expect. We tell you what you've done. Don't expect any easy treatment, that is if by mistake. Nonsense.

NPP gets 6 months to clean up or get out of the kitchen. So better not put the old man to the task. This job is not for the faint hearted or the handsome guy. Search and find a strong horse.

Hopeless and clueless Dramani Mahama has mortgaged Ghana our beloved country for 5 years to Chinese Government, as we are writing every citizen in this country is under Chinese dominion for 5 years as a slave to that nation for $30 billion, as a result it will take Nana Akuffo Addo and his NPP credible administration not less than six years
to repair such a serious economical
damage and confusion this NDC led administration by "Nkonfem" President Mahama has caused to this our beloved country.

It is only an idiot who has no right frame of mind to think lesser years than such figure can be used to repair such a mess, confused and economical chaos clueless NDC puppet administration has brought to bear on to the the people of this country and the soul of this nation, fellow country men and women, Ghana's sovereignty is in a total messed
up by such a useless NDC thieves headed by a crook who call himself a
politician/President meanwhile he and
his Cows are thieves and brigand who entered into the sheepfold through other means, as proclaimed by the holy
Gospel according to John Chapter 10 v 1 - 10.

Today Kwasea bi nti, Ghana our beloved country is a slave nation to not any other nation, but Chinese (snake and frog) eaters. TWEAAA!!!!

AUTHOR: EBO QUANSAH---------------Dear reader, forgive me for diverting from the topic I promised yesterday. I have been compelled by Jerry Rawlings’ outburst in Nigeria about corruption, as if he himself is a saint. I am compelled to do this expose on the former junta head for those who do not know his role in promoting corruption as a national concept. Read on!
In June 1979, eight top military officers, including three former heads of state, were lined up and executed at the Teshie Military Firing range in two batches. Gen. Ignatius Kutu Acheampong, Gen. Frederick William Kwasi Akuffo, Gen. Robert Kotei, Lt-Gen. Akwasi Amankwaa Afrifa, Rear Admiral Joy Amedume, Air Vice-Marshall George Yaw Boakye, Emmanuel K. Utuka and Colonel Roger Felli were accused of corrupting the body politic.
In an interview with New Nation, a monthly magazine circulating in Nigeria and now defunct, the Chairman of the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council, which supervised over the most famous case of extra-judicial killings in the history of the political evolution of Ghana, justified the action of his military junta as a necessary action to rid the body politic of corruption.
“They were jumbo-sized armed robbers whose killings left the world smelling nicer,” Flt-Lt. Rawlings was quoted by the magazine as saying in explanation.
Jerry Rawlings said the officers had to be killed, “because Ghana was faced with their type of thievery breed of criminals who were worse than Nigeria’s armed robbers” in the 1970s.
“Now, I’ll tell you what we have here. We have a breed that is, perhaps, worse than your armed robbers,” he told reporters of the New Nation in an exclusive interview. “They are the pen robbers. These species of vermin have for long perpetrated corruption with impunity.
“They have not only bled the nation white, but as a result of their thievery, Ghana has suffered hunger, loss of national spirit, loss of pride and respect in the military uniform. So, as you can see, while Nigerians have perceived their main social problems to be the proliferation of six Naira armed robbers, we, in Ghana, think that our problem is that of people who take widow’s mite from a bankrupt nation.”
In the words of the ex-junta head: “While you (Nigeria) content yourself at the Bar Beach by watching the executions of mal-adjusted labourers, mechanics or clerks, we in Ghana, have killed the jumbo armed robbers, call them generals or brigadiers – whose going to leave the world smelling sweeter.”
One interesting thing about this claim is that Jerry Rawlings and his righteous AFRC members could not account for monies lodged in AFRC Account 48, which was specially created to lodge huge monies paid by businessmen and other persons and institutions found guilty by a so-called people court to have corrupted the system. Monies from seized goods auctioned to the public at so-called control prices were also lodged in the account.
When President Hilla Limann took power after the AFRC had left the scene on September 24, 1979, the new Head of State complained that there was nothing in the coffers, insinuating that the famous Account 48 could not be traced.
When Flt-Lt. Rawlings, who had refused to accept the new government’s offer to go on course abroad, was questioned on the disappearance of the huge lodgings in the account, he replied that he was not an accountant. Incidentally, the fate of PNDC Account 48, established by the second junta led by the same person, has not been accounted for as you read this piece.
One of the most interesting developments in Ghana’s political evolution was the decision to abolish the General Certificate of Examinations -Ordinary and Advanced levels- by the Provisional National Defence Council. The main reason given was that the old educational system had favoured only the children of the elite class.
At a time ordinary folks of the land were enrolling their children in what became known as the Junior and Senior Secondary schools, whose certificates -BECE and SCCE- were not recognised beyond the four corners of the country, Jerry Rawlings enrolled his children at the expensive Ghana International School in Accra to read subjects that qualified them to sit for the GCE Ordinary and the Advanced levels his PNDC administration had prohibited the mass of Ghanaian children from.
I do not believe corruption is only putting state money in one’s pocket. Exploiting state resources for one’s advantage could even be a worse form of corruption. That is why I have an axe to grind with Jerry Rawlings for enrolling all his children abroad to study with the GCE Ordinary and Advanced levels, acquired outside the formal sector in the country.
What I call Jerry’s Stupid Schools has debased education up to the tertiary level, where lottery numbers, other than real academic work, determines qualification at the first degree level.
To add insult to injury, when asked to tell Ghanaians how he was funding the education of all the three children -Ezanator, YaaAsantewaa and Kimathi- in expensive universities in Britain and Ireland, Jerry Rawlings looked at Ghanaians in the face and answered that unknown benefactors were picking up the bills for their fees.
The Almighty is a kind Lord. It emerged that companies the state of Ghana was dealing with and which were milking Ghana dry, were picking up the bills of Jerry Rawlings’ children. And such a person has the audacity to complain about leaders being corrupt.
I dare state that corruption was elevated into an art under Jerry Rawlings. The circumstances under which he transformed himself from a military dictator into a civil constitutional President smells of corruption all the way to the Castle.
After eleven and a half years of the ‘Gospel According to Jerry Rawlings,’ a period he himself identified as the ‘culture of silence’, Jerry Rawlings and those who claim to believe in him used the resources of state to convert his military oligarchy and the entire governance system into a political party. With the Electoral Commission and the entire process under his thumb, Jerry Rawlings exchanged his military garb for a description as Constitutional President of the Republic of Ghana. God Almighty should remain where he is.
The eight year administration he led, as Constitutional President of this Republic, eulogised corruption as a state-sponsored event. State asserts were transferred to cronies under the guise of divestiture. As you read this piece, Nsawam Cannery, one of the flagship projects of the now defunct Ghana Industrial Holding Corporation, belongs to Caridem, a company floated by Mrs. Rawlings’ 31st December Women’s Movement, in a purchasing agreement that parceled the company to Caridem for a pittance.
Under the Government of the National Democratic Congress Mark One, corruption festered on a large scale. It would take volumes to chronicle corruption under the NDC. But four prominent issues stand out. Getting to the end of the first term of office, newspapers that had been freed from the bondage of the culture of silence began chronicling evidence of corrupt deals by leading members of the regime.
In 1996, the Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice investigated one matter and established massive corrupt deals against Ibrahim Adam, then Minister of Agriculture, Colonel E.M. Osei Owusu, a former Minister of the Interior, P.V. Obeng, a Presidential Staffer, and Dr. Adjei Marfo, a Chief Executive Officer of a state-run company.
Instead of prosecuting them, the Government of Saint Rawlings rather issued a While Paper exonerating the corrupt elements, and rather indicted the media for highlighting the issue.
In Britain, Mabey and Johnson was prosecuted not too long ago for corruptly influencing Ghanaian politicians between 1994 and 1999 to gain bridge contracts, The news in these contracts is that barely one year after completing two bridges in Ghana, including one over River Oti, the Ghana Government had to contract experts from Britain to repair them as they threatened to cave in.
In 2002, the former Managing Director of Ghana Rubber Estates Limited, Mr. Etienne Arthur Marie Popeler, told an Accra Fast Track High Court that he gave millions of dollars to Mr. Dan Abodakpi, then Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, Ms. Shirley Ayittey, then Treasurer of the 31st December Women’s Movement, in bribes before his French company, SIPH, could secure GREL.
The case of Ms. Cotton, an unemployed American, secured $20 million of scarce state cash from compromised state officials, ostensibly to grow rice for Ghanaians at Aveyime in the Battor area of the Volta Region. Even when Ghana’s Ambassador to the United States had sent a warning letter about the background of Ms. Cotton, and intimating that she was incapable of undertaking the task, state officials paid the money. As it turned out, the main motivating factor was the cut they all stood to make.
If corruption is endemic in the body politic after the so-called June 4, uprising, the genesis could be traced to Jerry Rawlings who executed eight Ghanaians officials on unproven trivial charges, and out-doored full- blown corruption as a state policy.
In other exposé next week, I intend to draw the link between the free for all looting that assails the body politic in the Mills-Mahama regime, and the adventure of Jerry John Rawlings as Head of State of this Republic. I shall return!

We Ghanaians know that IMF is not our friend when it comes to advice on financial issues because most of the new idea policies they implement in Africa where Ghana is not exceptional does not benefit us at all. They give loans with austerity measures of forcing governments to fire workers and pay them off with little money. These practices in the past created a mess in the Ghanaian economy and it took Ghana many years to pay off the loans with huge interest rates.
Let’s ask IMF why they only target developing countries to implement their inhuman policies. The policies IMF sends to Africa are never practice in Europe or America .The reason being that people know their rights as non-employees can apply for unemployment benefit while developing countries do not have such benefits. I will also like to ask IMF how a loan can be paid when the people who are supposed to work and create benefit for the loan to be paid are fired from their jobs. How does government make money? It is true taxation isn’t it? So when people are supposed to work and pay taxes for the government to get money to work on other projects for the benefit of the nation and that is not working, is that a good policy IMF is implementing in Ghana?

President Mahama can adapt a similar method to bring back the cedi value. If the government needs advice some of us can help. Ghana is our country and we should not expect outsiders to develop it for us. We have to hold the horn by the bull and do our best for our dear nation

What is wrong with NPP? When did the economy of Ghana start going down the tubes? It was when greedy and corrupt Kuffour took over power. He currently is the richest man in Ghana. But truth be told he was financially destitute, destitute, on the eve of his inauguration. His car even broke down the day of his presidential swearing in ceremony. NPP hypocrites, you will have to pull tooth and nail to win any election again Ghana even if NDC is not doing well. Kuffour destroyed your image as a party worthy to run Ghana!!!

See the thiefman, why not 4 yrs to fix? attempting to steal the peoples mandate and do 8 yrs. this country is not in a mess is the npp that is in a mess and shouting on top of their voices to turn all the goods into bads..for the IMF the earlier they kept away the better. they should learn to advise themselves. Let us learn from BRICS and not from IFM and the PIGS.

Even in a hard times under NDC economy, you won't find a president describe corruption as old as Adam to accommodate looting as it was under NPP reign of extra hard economy.

After they ransacked state coffers and looted state lands, they still entertain thoughts of getting power with their unashamed attitude in Kwame Nkrumah's Ghana again. NPP Dreamer

I agree 100% with you. NPP is looking for another chance to share the rest of government properties and lands/assets etc. They just cant wait for a second round of looting

As usual, Stupid NDC propaganda Gurus will downplay these warnings and feed the public with their Vague Promises until the truth settles in, then they'll cry for help.
