There is no money for anything but in the end, our foolish leaders are handed over thousands of dollars as ex-gratia. The worse thing ever to happen to black people is to elect one of them to lead. That is a license to kill, maim and destroy and I swear that black people cannot rule themselves for the commoner to feel at ease.

When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Countries train their doctors differently and award different degrees. It is time we started conferring Doctor of Medicine degrees to MBChB students who have performed the necessary research projects as some countries do.

The current practice where newly inducted doctors called house officers with no experience whatsoever are left to experiment with (attend to) serious medical cases while residents, specialists and consultants are away must be put to a stop immediately. There must be at least one specialist present 24 hours in three shift rotations to supervise them. Our health system as it is presently is not the best. The situation in the countryside and rural communities is even worse.

Do not doubt the wisdom in these words.

Increasing MMR is an indictment on the country. Shame to the leaders who are making things "better" for us. This is what happens when boys and girls rule a country. Governance is not for the immature and inexperienced. What in Ghana is working now? This is shameful and disgraceful.

Funerals are more important to Ghanaians than sanitation and health issues. Life expectancy is ever lowering but we do not care. Our leaders have no clue what they are supposed to do or how to lead a nation inot properity

Free maternal care with no family planning is like going to fetch water with a basket!

Ghanaians rise up, we no go sit down let them cheat us everyday..No!!!. Every Ghanaians who loves this country should wake up. You see, it is not about which party you belong to, but it is about how much you love your country. If a particular party's policies are fiasco, and the leaders turn out to be incompitent, why do you in your normal sense want to re-elect them into power if not for self gain. The present learders of our beloved country have proven to be nothing but "crooks" and mafias who do not really have the country at heart but rather using their positions as a vehicle to acquire wealth at the expense of hard working citizens tax morney. Fellow Ghanaians, let's put our party and tribal differences away and stand up for our country. THIS PRESENT LEADERS MUST EXIT, Ghanaians have had enough. Let's all remember that the foolish testicle is not stampeded twice

This show how Ghana has her priorities wrong. We can't keep the health of our reproductive mothers but have money to buy cars for chiefs and other foolish projects.
