Bawumiah is noted for his statements based on nothing but facts. Such are the sages Ghana needs today, not lies which ghanians call today political propaganda.

I urge Dr. Bawumiah to stop misleading, and inflaming the Ghanaian polity with half truths.

It is sound debt-management to use the proceeds from the Eurobonds to retire some of the debt owed by our central bank.

As it stands today, Ghana is spending 20% of its annual budget in interest payment alone for our debt,-- dating from the Rawlings' administration.

If Dr. Bawumiah can do the maths: this comes to 20% of one billion dollars cash that would be freed in our annual budget for domestic socio-economic developments.

There are other good ripple effects: enhancing the strength of our currency; strengthening our global trade, and balance-of-payment positions; improving our credit ratings, -- which are falling into the pits; and regaining some of our long-lost goodwill in the international financial markets.

It's alright to keep government on its toes,-- that's a sign of good citizenship. On the other to tell half-truths is dangerous politics.

We must rise above it.

May Lord Almighty continue to bless our beloved Great Ghana:
Amen!!!

Until we have changed the way our government operates and the legislative and executive arms earn the income that suits their input, there will be no change in the life of the ordinary Ghanaian; by that I don't mean only poor people, but anybody outside politics who is also not a celebrity.
What do I mean by that? Until parliamentarians and ministers stop getting wages that they don't deserve, they will never see any reason why Ghanaians are complaining. If they see the need for all the benefits that they have allotted to themselves to make life comfortable because to them that is the reality of today's economic condition, why do they think that comfort should be denied others outside politics? People of Ghana, your legislators and the executive arm will never change anything to their disadvantage. It is you and I who will have to change the status quo. I'm bringing this up today and I believe people will take it up from here and talk about it till the constitution is amended. The amendment must see a change in the situation where legislators pass bills on benefits that goes to them without any trouble, but refuse to do the same for others. They must not decide how much they earn; that must be decided by the people, and it must go up in proportion with that of the rest of us. The free this and free that must cease. That does not make them feel what we feel, and therefore does not lead to taking sensible decisions to solve our problems. It will also be less attractive to nobodies who resign their jobs to seek greener pasture there only to enrich themselves.
The second issue is the situation where a parliamentarian is given a ministerial appointment yet, continue to be a legislator. Yes, the constitution allows that, but common sense must tell us that it is not proper, and they can never perform efficiently in both capacities. I'm therefore not surprise that things are not working for us. Somebody must talk about this, I have started it. Let's talk and call for a change. We have the power to turn things around. The politicians will not do it, left to them alone.

So, To Me, if the money was used to pay on debts and was used for projects, that is all good. I am not hearing that someone has pocketed the money so what is the big deal here? The question to be answered is why the funds were diverted to fund other projects. There are cases where such actions may be justified but we need to know.

Only thing happening now is that, Ghanaian politicians are rubbing mud on the name Ghana! All these politicians are going to reap what they are sowing. Once you have soiled the name of Ghana because of politics what do you do when you win power?

It is wise to borrow from your own funds to pay debt; in that case you pay the interest to yourself and not to someone else. If you are wise, do not pay interest to someone when you can take loans from your retirement funds to pay on a debt and fund your projects.

Again I say, unless the money was pocketed by some individuals, to me this is not a big deal.

We are running aPonzi scheme, take money from one source and give to another. The Moody and Fitch has realized the futility and downgraded us to make it more difficult to borrow. We are at the end of our wits, with oil, gold prices and dims or only God can save us.

THE NDC PARTY IS FULL OF LOW GRADE POLITICIANS LIKE John Mahama & some shallow thinking, create, loot and share Ministers & some FOOLISH FOLLOWERS. O Lord I pray for Mother Ghana, that you reduce the number of FOOLISH VOTERS in 2016. Father the small number that will be left, wash their faces with sea sand so that they would be able to see the predicament they have put Ghana through as result of their foolish action in Dec 2012, and change for the better. I pray that you let them vote this USELESS and CLUELESS NDC GOVERNMENT out of power and never allow this bunch of thieves near the corridors of power ever again in the history of our beloved Ghana . Let those who these FOOLISH VOTERS envy because they are prospering as a result of which they vote foolishly so that they will be equal with them prosper even more. Father let those who are sympathetic to these USELESS VOTERS stop giving them money when they come begging, so that they will realize 'Ghana is hard', and vote wisely this time round. Lord, there are too many office to office beggars in Ghana, that is a sign of poverty, kick those who encourage this out of office.Lord Jesus, there are about 6-8 Million unemployed youth including well qualified Graduates in Ghana with a bleak future of hopelessness with no sign of opportunities to earn a living and not to talk about dumsor which has crippled businesses making a lot struggling and further making more people homeless and also making our children unable to learn properly in the evening.Oh Lord,this dumsor has been creating several deaths that could have been prevented if care and properly planning were done to resolve this simple problem by dealing with the root causes such as transmission losses resulting from transmitting power from the source to homes and businessess across the country. This simple power shortfall can be addressed in just 3 months with proper due diligence and planning to fix this if only we had the right people in charge with a clear vision than this create loot and share mindset of NDC Crooks.Oh Lord,You have said in your word in Psalm 109 'Hold not thy peace, O God of our praise; 2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against us Ghanaians: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue showing a clear evil corrupt intent. 3 They compassed us about also with words of hatred; and fought against our prosperity with greed without a cause. 4 For my love these people in Gov't are our adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer. 5 And they have rewarded us Ghanaians evil hardship for our good and peaceful manner, and hatred for our love. 6 Set thou a wicked man over this Gov't: and let Satan stand at their right hand. 7 When they shall be judged, let them be condemned: and let their prayer become sin. 8 Let their days be few; and let another take their of office. 9 Let their children be fatherless, and their wives a widow. 10 Let their children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places. 11 Let the extortioner catch all that they have acquired their create,loot and share practises; and let the strangers spoil their labour. 12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto them when they are in opposition: neither let there be any to favour their fatherless children.Let these be the reward of those who steal or create,loot and share the little money Ghana has. Oh Lord,How long would you allow this corrupt people to govern mother Ghana with their wickedness.Merciful Father, too many FOOLISH VOTERS who have no sense of dignity are rewarded with trips to soccer matches only to go and sleep on the floor in foreign land, and eventually seek asylum, stamp that disgraceful spirit out of Ghana. Lord, you have blessed us with everything that can make us rich, but you seemed to have forgotten to protect mother Ghana from greedy politicians and thieves; we call on you to rise and let these nation wreckers scatter in 2016. In Jesus Name Amen

This money was used to pay the last election campaign expenses. This is why the vice president (Amissah)came from Bank of Ghana. This president will buy his way to heaven.
