I shake my head when politicians try to explain away their failings. Please. Take responsibility where responsibility is due.
First, you can't blame the NDC government for the falling currency in the first 6 months of the Atta Mills government. This was due to NPP overspending for the 2008 election. However, after this point, everything should be left at the doorstep of the party in power. 2014 was a disastrous year. The cedi was the worse performing currency in Africa (and within top 5 worse world wide). The ballooning salary budget, if it was caused by single spine, was STILL implemented under the NDC watch. I am very curious about the reports out of the EU stating there are huge numbers of NDC supporters on the government payroll.
Ghana has found oil. Has more money coming in than ever before but still needs to go for an IMF bailout. It's debt will likely go close to 80% before the 2016 and residents are grateful when receiving 3 days of continuous electricity supply.
The government has nothing to be proud of.

MR HAYFORD HAS SAID IT ALL. THE NDC SHD NOT THINK THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES WITH ACCESS TO OFFICIAL INFORMATION. A PARTY AND LEGACY SPANNING A QUARTER OF A CENTURY ONLY NOW PREACH THAT THE ECONOMIC FUNDAMENTALS MUST BE TRANSFORMED, IS ONLY FOR RHETORIC, BECAUSE THE OPPOSITION HAD MADE THE MOVE SINCE 2008. IT WAS ONLY UNDER THE NPP THAT GHANA HAD CONSISTENT ECONOMIC GROWTH FOR 8 YEARS. NEVER UNDER ANY P/NDC GOVT.FOR ECONOMIC SURVIVAL, PLEASE GO FOR THE NPP; NOT ECONOMIC PROPAGANDISTS LIKE THE NDC.THIS IS THE BRUTAL TRUTH.

If Ghana has been enjoying consistent economic growth for 8 good years under Kufuor's administration, then what necessitated Ghanaians to boot out a perfectly winning team for such a bunch of losers called the NDC party to come have a go at their expense? This self appointed Financial Analyst called Sydney Casely-Hayford, is nobody than a common fool-solder sophisticatedly blowing the NPP's propaganda trumpet around under the guise of some accredited Financial Analyst. A trick so families with the files of Kukurudu from the political yesteryear Ghana.

MR.BAWUMIA SAID:
NDC'S ECONOMIC PROPAGANDA STATISTICS SHOWN TO GHANAIANS,DOES NOT REFLECT IN THE POCKETS OF THE COMMON MAN ON THE STREETS.
That statement alone was enough to send the late president ATTA MILLS,to MALLAM ATTA MARKET,ON HIS FAMOUS KENKEY PRICE TOUR.
Let's face it:Ghanaians are suffering and there is no way it is going to change under NDC'S MAHAMA'S WATCH.
You people were left with OIL,NPP didn't,yet you have sent Ghana to the IMF,FOR a bailout.
WHAT A SHAMEFUL,DISGRACEFUL,INCOMPETENT AND NAIVE,IGNORANT GOVERNMENT,LIKE THE NDC?
You might argue on this that NPP also went for the HIPC,BUT THAT WAS INEVITABLE OR THE LAST OPTION FOR PRESIDENT KUFUOR,because the NDC FOUNDER,AFTER 19 WASTED YEARS ON THE THRONE,blew everything.
Hey,I can say we are blessed that Ghana is naturally a peace-loving nation,else,what might have happened now,would have been very bad,because of NDC'S weak economic policies,corruption,unpatriotic and uncaring attitude,covetousness,selfishness,as well as,incompetence,ignorance and lies,might have been chaotic,brutal,disastrous and wild.
Let's thank God also,that NANA AKUFO ADDO,is selfless and a man of integrity and wisdom,for humbly accepting the appeal results of the corrupt SUPREME COURT PERSONNELS,headed by ATUGUBA.
Don't support blindly with numbers that do not count.
WE HEARD THAT SINCE TIME IMMEMORIAL,BUT ONLY IN BOOKS AND NOT SOLVING THE PROBLEMS ON THE GROUND.
The only thing each GHANAIANS need in year 2016 is nothing but A BROOM,TO SWEEP YOU NDC'S OFF THE SCENE,FOR A BETTER PERSON TO RULE.
THAT'S MY PRESCRIPTION FOR GHANA.

I was one of those who thought of Hayford as an economist. It's now clear he is a politician. Stripped naked, I now begin to wonder if he not just throwing political dust into our eyes.

I'm totally NPP, but it's very foolish when so called analysts wear political gowns and deceive the people with brainless analysis. Leave Nana to make such statements. At least pretend to be fair and impartial for once. Franklin Cudjoe is in the same foolishness; thinking people still perceive them as think tanks and analysts. GHANAIANS are not stupid. Your ideas and statements only hold as much water as NPP members, nothing more.
