You are what you eat! Instead of lactating our children, we introduce them to our maggot infested foods. Fufu and 20 meat soup, mostly cooked from rotten produce.

You are an IDIOT. what has the govt got to do with this ? Instead of us doing what is right we turn to blame others for our woes. Ghana can never be a better place to live UNLESS WE CHANGE OUR ATTITTUDE

You cant understand what is wrong with the Blacks. The richest continent on this earth,physically, the strongest people on this earth, but because of lack of knowledge they are perishing and subjected to slavery all over the world.Instead of science and technology these people have turned to religion and politics.Instead of using their own resources to develop their own land the useless Africans will loot their own wealth and dump them in foreign countries and their own people are dying Foolish Blacks.People who think of only money,food and sex .

PAA,you appear to be very naive, the govt has the responsibility to ensure that its people are healthy by providing the resources for proper sanitation
Municipal and districts govt must facilitate these basic human needs

You are right ! The Ghanaian attitude to sanitation and hygiene is poor and must change. Washing hands after defecating is not the work of the government.

For some unknown reason the regular position reports for the Black Marlin which was said to be transporting the first 225MW Karpower Barge from Turkey to Ghana via Abidjan ceased to be published after the one which relayed her position [330 miles north east of Freetown Sierra Leone] at 00:07 UTC on 19 November 19.

However the information currently published [at 10:40 UTC on 22 November] listing expected port arrivals at Abidjan show her as being just 3 miles from port, expected to arrive within 30 minutes.

Why has there been no mention of this subject on Ghana Web News?

It seems that I await the next exciting stage of the barge’s journey to Tema with greater interest than that of the media at large.

What’s going on?

Cleanliness NEXT to Godliness.The country is dirty.From pastors to ordinary folks. If your house is clean and surroundings is dirty then something is wrong.

I just don't know what else needs to happen for us to learn our lesson. This is not about Mahama but this is about ghanaians. We have just refused to do the right thing n this is killing us.

Children dying of diarrhoea and some of you think it has nothing to do with Govt? Shallow mindedness that's how come an incompetent NDC govt can win elections, because the people themselves don't get it. They only need to play on the tribal sentiments, and bam !!! they have them in their pocket. God have mercy on Ghana.

and Haruna Iddrisu is an honourable man;all honourable men!THIS IS SAD!!!

Do we need a soldier to enforce each and every house owner in this country to use one of his/her rooms to create a toilet facility in the house?
We should not allow a house without toilet to be inhabited in all strict sence.
And JJ Rawlings,JA Kufour and i know JD Mahama too, will be going home with big EX GRATIA for good work done
Prez Mahama,use your own money to solve this problem,at least for the northerners alone.
I am even tempted to say that,we the northerners generally, have sanitation problems;
Wherever, we find an abode,we are the first to make the place dirty and quickly,name the place as ZONGO. We need to talk to ourselves.
Take Ashanti Region for instance, all the dirtiest places are where the northerners are concentrated;the same in Greater Accra;eastern region...
Our Religious Leaders must start talking about it in our mosques whenwe go for prayers. THIS IS BAD!
All our leaders know is to loot and loot and loot... this small boy just came into politics and he is 300million dollars rich-Iddrissu haruna and your own people are wallowing in filt. the northerners in the government,where do you intent to use your looted money? built castles in accra,kumasi and overseas? be sensible and have pity on us.
