Mahama(a Gonja) is following the prescriptions of OIC.You remember an MP from Gonjaland declared that adulterous women should be stoned to death. Again Boko Haram in Akyem terrorized Muslim women for buying food from Christians yet the IGP(a Gonja Muslim) kept mute and Mahama was happy because that follows OIC's demands. Muslims burnt down a Christian mission house in Atebubu yet the IGP was again silent and Mahama never saw anything wrong with that. When Muslim youth went on demonstration demanding religious rights in missionary schools that one attracts sympathy from Prez Mahama. AMA banning churches in classrooms, Northern Regional Minister accusing the Christian clergy of encouraging politicians to be corrupt. These are all plans aimed at suppressing Christianity to please the OIC. These are all indicators that Mahama is feverishly handing over Ghana to the Organisation of Islamic Conference for Money. We should remember Islam is useless without direct state support and so Mahama is providing that support to Muslims to grow in Ghana whilst at the same time suppressing Christians. He is also doing this because Islam as a religion is useless without direct political/government intervention.

Loans for Water Projects taken in 2005-2006 for Water projects were never utilized for water and that was a total of $603 million from the World Bank.
What did the government use the money for? Was the World Bank complicit in this deception of the people of Ghana? It is a fraud if you give loans you know are not going to be used for intended purposes and you just sign and leave the nations with debt and no infrastructure projects are delivered!

$60mill is noting money for a rich country like Ghana. This is peanuts.

No more deception and bribery and looting.

The future generation of Ghana would have no business repaying the useless loans being given to Ghana by the IMF, the World Bank and their affiliates. These institutions are recklessly granting loans without monitoring their end corrupt uses, such as government officials using loans to buy luxury cars for themselves and family members and fattening their bank accounts abroad. How can these same institutions who are supporting and perpetuating corruption in Ghana come back in future to demand repayment?

One wonders if the World Bank officials themselves are honest financiers or not. The electricity problem has been so since 2004 and hundreds of millions of dollars in loans have gone into this and the situation is getting worse. Now you come telling us $60 million will solve all problems? Forget it!
Why can't these people simply give the loans as loans and stop the hypocrisy and political posturing? They think Ghanaians are fools?
