  I wonder if Tekpe did economics at school. A bond from a sovereign country, with a coupon rate of 11% backed by the IMF 40%guarantee payable over 3 installments for 15 years will surely be oversubscribed. The simple reason being that the fund manager in Europe will get 1.5% from any other country in Europe. The Japanese Fund manager will get 0.5% from a Japanese government and the fund manager at the Wall Street will be glad t get 0.8% to 1.2% from the US government for the same type of bond and similar conditions. So who will not clamor for such a windfall and cheap money from Ghana. The fact that it is oversubscribed does not mean we are doing well. If Tekpe is bold and knows what he is doing, he should perch the rate at just 9% to see if he could get just a single taker. Propaganda will not take us anywhere. With this kind of rate I will wake up at 3 am to go and queue in front of Tekpe's house to subscribe if I were a fund manager. After all who does not want to do business with an idiot?
