    You remember how Atta Mills booted that idiot called Asaga out of his team.

  • champion 8 years ago

    it is said that'when dog bite dog, you hardly see blood' nana akomea should stop calling asaga arrogant when his nana did worse things than to be described as arrogant.

    Hmmmm I would lift you up HIGH if you were close by. You spread out my sentiment right there!!

  • KOFI BOYE 8 years ago

    just quoting figures in the us and europe about minimum salaries is just as ridiculous. yes the pay is higher but so are the taxes, the roads etc. plus most pay taxes, ghanaians steal taxes.

  • Tibaa 8 years ago

    First, petrol prices comparable to that of Germany and other countries.

    Second, Ghanaians can afford $60,0000 BMW, but cannot afford more for petrol.

    At times I wonder whether cotton wool is stuck in his oblong shaped h ...

    Your suggestion may not be too far from right. One just wonders if people like Asaga have reasoning abilities?!!

  • Suroakata 8 years ago

    Nana Addo has a loooooong history of speaking for the poor people in Ghana. Assaga and N DC can never stop Nana from talking about the poor .

  • MATHS 8 years ago

    Though the NPP Director of Communications is here trying to score political points, I do fully agree with him that Mr. Asaga has been intellectually dishonest. He is also arrogant and in his attempt to justify the price rise ...

    You are also being dishonest. How many people living on minimum wage buy cars? We have to be serious as Ghanaians, it appears every policy is seen through political lenses. You cannot continue ro subsidise everything without ...

    My brother we are not talking of subsidy here. The NPA since the downward adjustment of crude oil on the world Market, informed us, it was not going to reduce prices of petroleum product because it owed the BDC some $400m. Gh ...

  • Kwame ,harrow 8 years ago

    I always wonder where NDC gets this people from to speak such nonsense.If this are the kind of people in charge of our institutions ,then God help mother Ghana.no wonder the country has become a basket case under Mahama.

  • RPG 8 years ago

    The fuel price hike is unjustified, unacceptable and needs to be scrapped immediately.
    Asaga doesn't seem to even understand what he is even talking about, and for him to make that analogy comparing some of the world's larg ...

    The minimum wage in the US is 6.7 pounds per hour. For an 8 hour work day, that is 53.6 pounds per day.Convert this to dollars and you have about $83 dollars per day. The DAILY minimum wage in Ghana is 7 Cedis. Conver to doll ...

    @FC you are rather ignorant. The minimum wage in UK is abt £6,80 an hour not a day so it works out to abt $9.52. So $9.52 multiply by 8 hours will be around $76 a day. Ghana's minimum wage is Ghc6.7 or 67000 old Ghana cedis ...

  • Kwaku Obeng 8 years ago

    The minimum wage in Germany is a little over 9 euros per hour. In $ value it is a little over 10$. A days work could earn you almost 80$ per day. Nana Akomea is right.
