Etweaaaaaa, who is this son of a thief. Has he forgotten that his father the late Nortey Omaboe aka Nana Wereko Ampem chief of Amanokrom in Akuapim aided and abetted the National Liberation Council led another bufoon JA Ankrah to rob Ghana to the bones. Prior to the the time the NLC came to power his father was a poor civil servant. Where did he get that money to put up the "Opeibea House' that beautiful building on the way to the Airport. Today it is Omaboe's son, tomorrow it will be the children of Asiedu Nketia,Mahama and all whose parents got the chance of stealing from the State coffers to educate them in elite overseas institutions. It is very disgraceful that they do not feel ashamed to parade the country calling themselves the children of people whose parents are people of clean hands. Sooner or later they will pay for the crimes their parents caused Ghana till today.

NPP politicians should stop their internal wranglings and focus on the
Unity Agenda and think of high this destroyed nation of this country can be rescued from the NDC senseless and hopeless Government and bring some hopes into the life ordinary people of this nation.

We the civilized Ghanaian People are
sounding it solemnly in the ears of
Paul Afoko and Kwabena Agyepong and
all those in authority, to re-think
properly and be advised that, it is only Nana Akuffo Addo is the best candidate to lead the NPP and the nation so as to bring glory to the nation, the Ghanaian People and the
businesses which has been destroyed by
this corrupt and puppet Government of NDC.

I import electronics for my brother to sell in Ghana. Dumso has almost destroyed half of his equipments now we power the store with a generator to prevent future problems.

Ghana is a failed state.

but governments solve basic problems don't they? why do we pay taxes and give them all the privileges if we are to provide our own basic needs such as water and electricity?

unless the are private power providers with their own gas/coal fired generators or private dams.. Even in usa some citys are gov owner power and water providers..Others have Private electric companys like Southern Company( alabama & georgia power) Duke power and Co-ed in NYC..So the Ghana gov need to build more dams, gas fired plants and of course improve the grid for getting power out of these plants

How many Ghanaians have factories elsewhere? You just want to add up, or talk. Bristish Gas and EDF (Energy De France) or Scottish Power are they not private investment? Why the so-called Ghanaians who call themselves investors don't go into energy investment.

If you have been appointed as an executive, first, you will go and rent an expensive office space and buy expensive cars.

Electricity supplied had stabilized by early Jan, 2009 when NDC took power from NPP. With the oil-find and the Bui Hydro-Electric power supply in place, money and electricity flow shouldn't be a problem to Ghana government.

So why all these nonsense of frequent power outage, and high depreciation of the Ghana Cedi against the major currencies? Let us be wise. Things are so bad.

Oh Ghanaian, the government is killing business men and women and everyone in this country, when are we going to stand up and tell this government enough is enough the way the economic is going backwards is not good, the only door for economic growth is locked because of the high fees you have to pay when clearing you goods. This government make us understand that we cant do business with dollar but one question that cross my mind is why are customs checking exchange rate before they charge you. This government is taking is people for a f**l because they know Ghanaian's dont talk. I say to everyone who is reading this the time has come for everyone to stand up and say enough is enough cut down importation charges because if nothing this economic is not going to grow.
