This article speaks volume to the extent that "the destiny of Ghana" is in the wrong hands. If a minister fails to respond to answer questions on the house floor, nothing is being done but just a "mere" warning. Are we serious as a nation.

We are behaving like spoil brats.

Let us not be fooled into ignoring the true motives and intentions of JJ's so called uprisings as the truth is evident upon reflection with wisdom and a just heart. It was nothing but a dubious plan and insidious agenda motivated by tribalism and hatred of the Akans . This is the greatest tragedy and the reason why the country can never develop, as long as the undercurrent of all political activity is the hatred and exclusion of everything Akan there can never be true unity and peace of mind . We now have generations of youth in absolute poverty who will never know what a job that can sustain a family is , brainwashed into thinking the perverse lies of this ndc are the right moral standards of the day, yes buga buga tactics designed to break the spirit of a free nation . They say we are only angry but the fact remains this was a tribal war still continuing against the Akans , you will never hear JJ mention the corrupt EWE such as woyome , segbefia and tsikata but rather any Ashanti public or private is the enemy and criminal and his follows will add drug barons . He will never see the evil corruption of his allies in this backstrabbing war against the Akans the northerners and other minorities such as the Gas. Without proof or the need to respect the law and human rights of the accused he will judge and execute innocent Akans into jail or death , even his long time traitor friend Mills was not good enough because he was Fanti and therefore not motivated enough to hate his brothers the Ashantis or npp. Forbes has put the mahamas in the list of being one of the most corrupt family in the country and Africa but JJ and the NDC are blind to this fact and obviously have succeeded in bribing our so called opposition NPP into compliance of the ongoing crimes . JJ , WHERE IS YOUR COUP NOW IN SWEEPING AWAY THIS CORRUPT GOVT ,is it because its now your ayigbe and pepeni who are now the one's stealing ?

The government of Ghana can only spend money (pass a budget) with the approval of MPs (representatives) and the President. So how can parliament be broke?? If the government does not budget enough funds for the work of parliament then parliamentarians must reject the national budget placed before it.

After winning an election a newly elected Parliamentarian must leave his
constituency and come to Accra the National capital to represent his
constituency while at the same time providing feedback to his
constituents. Parliament must also provide a readily available
renovated residence to a newly elected parliamentarian as he or she may
have exhausted all his or her funds campaigning for office.

In the load shedding exercise it is imperative that some key areas be left
out. This should include where the three arms of government work and
reside like Sakumono where MPs (representatives) reside and flag staff
house and osu castle where the President works and resides. Where the
chief justice works and resides should also be included. It should also
include the premises of key government institutions like ministries.We
need to quadruple our electricity production within the next four years
but not through foreign investors.

Some of the ministers are there to make money not for administration of day to day matters.

NDC deputy ministers are paid just to do propaganda on radio talk shows and just that. The have no clue, the work ethics of the ministries they serve. This morning almost all the deputies were all around on TV and radio stations, and as if possessed by the spirits of evil dwarfs, they were all blaming Kuffour for the the present " dumso dumso" menace.
