Why should we believe you when none of your promises and forecasts have ever come to pass. Again, if even we should believe you, why should it take your ditching of our economy in the first place for you to come up with better policies? Is it the case that you were learning on the job?

What importance is producing more oil in Ghana to Ghanaians? What better changes would this make in the Ghanaian life? The only benefit from our producing oil is hardships and massive corruption by government and its appointees. Stop this nonsense noise.

Oh so this is the reason why NDC is taking loans everywhere,hoping Ghana will be producing over one million barrels a day in 2018?This is madness,no Government should behave this way.You can't spend money you are expecting to get before you have it in the hand.This nonsense will only be practiced by a corrupt government like the NDC.The best they can do is failed promises.

Most countries in Africa are now producing oil . What is going to happen is that supply will exceed demand and the oil price will be low. New entrants will not be able to pay off the capital investment in the oil fields and make decent returns. Namibia, Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda etc will be pumping oil. Iran, the shale gas producers in USA and Canada also going too pump more oil We need to also focus on our manufacturing sector, agriculture/ agro processing and value add industries. Oil alone will not save Ghana , there is oversupply in the world.

You are gone Sir. Start writing your memoirs because you will not stay on to enjoy that oil. You could not handle 39 million barrels how can you manage 242 million barrels?

Well Mr. Finance Minister I honestly believed your exaggeration is way off overboard. Its not you to come out with such figure "Ghana is hoping to produce about 242.3 million barrels of oil in 2018 from 39.1 million barrels this year". We need the minister of Energy to come out with such outrageous propaganda and not you.

it seems as if the country's plan is only based on Oil exports.What about dwindling cocoa exports and industry, low mineral exports, agriculture and the manufacturing sector. We even import onions and tomatoes abuy the North and Afram Plains are bread baskets to be exploited.How many jobs will oil create compared to the other sectors of the economy being ignored.With the low Maths and Science ratings, how are we going to get qualified artisans, technicians ,engineers etc to run the oil fields.Much of the income will go to foreigners and the ordinary Ghanaian will see nothing of the oil.
