A leader must be able to create and mobilize natural resources with a: Goal and Targets of transformation, or to execute national development. Its not about borrowing LOANS for projects. Its abt critically thinkin & Planning. Thus what Ndc gov't luck in their coconut heads. Mahama must go 2016 period.

This is rubbish and wont carry any weight. How come dead goat brought us into this mess? So we should die because dead goat mismanaged the economy? Then the only viable option is dead goat resigns for failure and we re-negotiate with IMF. With dead goat at the helm of affairs, this nonsense will not be taken. He better increase the doctors pharmacist, state attorneys salaries as soon as possible. This is rubbish at its highest. He has not seen anything yet.

The loan to Ghana comes with terms that will make Ghana worse off. When we say the country is been sold to the white man that is what we mean. Our President and his government has nothing to do with the management of the bailout loans.
Ghanaians are treated like children where by something is given only by name.
Ghana government asked IMF to help the country and they are helping. IMF has 50 million to give to Ghana, instead of giving they give you in bits.
If you need a whole Orange to squeeze for its juice, IMF will give you quarter of the same Orange and expect you to get the same amount of juice.
If IMF had given the country the whole amount and let the government plan how to spend the money Ghanaians would not be suffering as we are doing now.
Who really is the owner of IMF. The question no Ghanaian is asking. It's a group of people who wants what you have. IMF and EU are profit making bodies not helpers.
All public properties will be sold to the white men infront of our eyes. Our Cocoa is no more for Ghanaians, the whiteman give you seeds, fertilizers, you harvest they take away to their country. They are not stupid as we are. Slavery is still in Ghana. Exploration at it highest. They are not helping Ghana, they are using Ghanaians and their land. They use to owe the land and we Labour for them, but now they take your land and labour right infront of you.

It is your incompetence of the NDC government that led to all these nonsense. Just like Greece. This NDC was handed over a middle income country economy but now like Greece, they ran down everything and had to seek solace from IMF. There is no way Ghanaians will not be paid when the one who caused the problem is sitting there that he is president. Being a president does not only require that people vote for you for 4 years. You have to work as a president. The only we can take this nonsense is if the president resigns

Massa; we told Ghanaians from the start ; IMF programms never work in any country ; how they went runnig to the IMF beats every ody who loves Ghana ; the IMF is a bank and lends money contributed by member nations under strict rules ; the IMF gave Ghanaians the impression that going to IMF will solve our problem FALSE ; the IMF is only lends to weak economies who they can control ; Greece; Italy; Spain etc are all weak economies and are controlled by the IMF ; the same with the IMF controlled by Goldman SACH ; Ghanais been controlled from the IMF and there nothing we can ; we just have to take the pill ; because Jon Mahama have stolen and shared all the monies with his NDC cronies .

Go and see how Prez Mahama of Ghana has transformed Gonjaland with Ghana money just within the two and half years that he has been in power. Every town, village and hamlet in Gonjaland has received a facelift with new facilities such as roads, toilet facilities, markets, mosques, good quality water projects, electricity extension projects, etc. The question is did J. J. Rawlings do the same thing to Voltarians when he was in power for twenty years? What about Atta Mills. The good old Prof was in power for three and a half years yet he was not selfish to only concentrate on his people in Ekumfi Etuam and the central Region but rather his whole thought was for the general good. No wonder under the care of Prez Mills, Ghana achieved a growth rate of 11%, single digit inflation and the smooth implementation of the Single Spine Pay Policy where newly recruited police personnel received the nominal equivalence of 500dollars as monthly salary. Compare these achievements to the nepotism and selfish policies of the Mahama government that has crippled the Ghanaian economy. I really weep for Ewes and Fantis whose votes brought Mahama to power and yet are the hardest hit by the current hardship prevailing in the country.

That is the penalty you pay for engaging in uncontrolled borrowing. WHERE IS BAGBIN? He said recently that the NDC will continue to borrow! Well ignorant majority leader Bagbin can now clearly see that the international financial system is not made up of weak minds like his.

Bagbin should continue encouraging his party to borrow.

that is stupid.how can IMF decide what we do except they want to make Ghana the African Greece.The Western Institutions has nothing better to offer Ghanaians and for that matter the so called Third World.They are basically holding guns to our head because of the corruption of our leaders who takes loans for anything from building toilets to building schools whilst they line their pockets from evading taxes to outright embezzlement and NDC are guilty of these acts. Ghanaians must wise up and refuse this agreement which was probably forced down the throats of the govt.
