What is this lier saying? Does he know that it was during his tenure as Deputy Governor that the nation spent huge sums of money in coining the One pesewa only for it to be thrown away. What level of incompetence can be more than that! We know him to be a lier as we all witnessed in the Election petition. To him a blank box or one with a dash means zero.

Collective guilt will not fly over this matter of epidemic corruption. Looking at the genesis and the mechanisms or root cause of this phenomenon we know exactly who the culprits are. This system was first developed in our country by elements close to Kwame Nkrumah and his political desire to build a cult personality just as we see today with Bawumia and before him JJ. Kojo Tsikata and his warped minded cronies and criminals from national security are the ones responsible as they designed and implemented the system. This is a system of Negative selection which doesnt allow our best to be called to serve rather prefers treacherous traitors , individuals of no morals or integrity all having perverse deviant character traits. In a corrupt society the undeserving , unqualified , incompetent with no empathy prosper while the opposite are marginalized , lynched or even killed as we have witnessed with Atta Mills, Acheampong , Ankrah and others. We mentioned the other day 2 sons of the Akans ( Kofi Anann and Sam Jonah) who invited to serve would turn the country around in less than a year but are no where on the political horizon talk less of being enabled to contribute anything positive to the nation. The truth be told we have over half a million (500,000) very highly qualified patriotic citizens from ALL tribes who can perform and are competent but they dare not raise their heads due to the vicious nature of The NDC , National security and other security agencies that have a strangle hold on the political climate. I advise all to verify these things i say and investigate the truth for themselves. Do we not have the likes of Daniel Tetteh ( a Ga in Databank), the sons of Dr agama (Ewes ) and countless Northerners with global achievement such as Baba Abu the banker? How come none of these well accomplished professionals have been thrown away to the roadside after all the investment our people have put in them? NDC is gone but the battle to bring things in order doesnt end there rather we need to remain vigilant and work to transform the politics by eliminating these useless remnants that have infiltrated every party. Mahama's treachery goes beyond incompetence as its only a symptom , the root cause is plain simple evil wickedness mixed with the retrogressive forces of his Islamic background. Corruption another symptom is part of the strategy to weaken the institutions of state , erase integrity and morals so we forever remain in this quicksand of poverty and backwardness . Incompetence implies amateurism , political illiteracy , ignorance etc but we say this is very deliberate as its supported by national security and other security agencies , practically all institutions of state are in compliance with the destruction or wanton looting of Akan wealth and future because they know its not theirs.To illustrate this point we will elaborate , imagine there is an ailing child that needs a heart operation or even simple appendix removal but pepeni president comes along and says i have the constitutional right to appoint the medical officer , so instead of appointing an experienced capable doctor he says my brother muslim pepeni is a butcher and knows how to cut flesh so he is appointed instead . Then the rest of us idiots are surprised and amazed when every time there is a patient things go wrong and there is death and misery all over the place. Then pepeni omanhene gets up and says npp vowed to make the country ungovernable so is to blame and sets all institutions of state to work at the destruction of the innocent npp. Now we return and all i say is just look at this govt and what do you really see , people deliberately in place who can never deliver , perform or do anything right in a thousand years, all of them sophisticated criminals posers and professional liars. The opposition we see is in a very sorry state as they have been infiltrated by these agent provocateurs , spies and sleepers . They cant even organise a simple house to house or door to door campaign due to internal sabotage and obstruction. We advise all decent citizens and Akans to continue the campaign individually to remove this evil NDC and make sure they dont even get 5% of the vote , then we shall see how the BNI will rig the elections for them. In our opinion any party not affiliated to the NDC is a good start and we shall make sure we dismiss 90% of the police force , BNI , national security and ministries civil service and replace them with more loyal ,patriotic and deserving citizens. A bad tree will always produce bad fruit such as we see with JJ and his offspring ashawo daughter who is only good for licking men's balls. Our advice especially to our diaspora is to avoid any family which supports NDC as they are nothing but gold diggers , fake users with no love in their hearts except interests. These ndc women all have one thing in common,irrational greed, no morals , no wisdom and no justice in their hearts just fine tuned in the art of lies and deceit.

THE WRITING IS NOW ON THE WALLS. ECONOMIC & SOCIAL UNREST THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. PEOPLE WILL NOW TAKE MY WORD SERIOUS.-------"IT IS ONLY A FOOL, WHO ALLOWS HIS TESTICLES TO BE STEPPED ON TWICE"-------GO OUT THERE AND RECEIVE YOUR REWARD, ALL GHANAIANS. GO AND PAY THE PRICE FOR YOUR FOOLISHNESS. YOU DON'T GIVE A SECOND MANDATE TO AN INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, NO!! NOT AT ALL, THAT IS ABOMINATION IN DEMOCRACY, VERY SUICIDAL. HAD NDC MANAGED THE ECONOMY WELL, THESE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THE SITUATION. NDC HAS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES GHANA HAS EVER HAD. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED MORE LOANS THAN ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT IN OUR HISTORY, BUT THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS. GHANAIANS SHOULD HAVE ENJOYED SOME ECONOMIC PROGRESS AT THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY. THE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS SO CORRUPT. TO RESCUE THE SITUATION, THE POOR IS NOW BEING FORCED TO PAY. THIS IS INJUSTICE. THIS IS NOT THE GHANA KUFFOUR HANDED OVER TO NDC, HE EVEN ADDED FRESH CRUDE OIL WELLS. NPP TRANFORMED GHANA TO A MIDDLE INCOME ECONOMY WITH LIMITED RESOURCES BUT GOOD POLICIES. NDC IS WOEFULLY REVERSING THESE NPP ACHIEVEMENTS. GHANA'S CURRENT SITUATION IS VERY DISTURBING. WHEN THE HISTORY IS TOLD, IT WILL BE SAID THAT GHANAIANS WERE OFFERED FREE SECONDARY EDUCATION, IMPROVED UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL HOUSING FOR THE POOR AND AN EGALITARIAN SOCIETY BUT 50% SAID NO THANK YOU. THEY PREFERRED ECONOMIC "WOYOMISATION" , PHANTOM DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, PHILANDERERS FOR LEADERS, MACHIAVELLIAN DISRESPECTFUL CORRUPT LOUTS AND A VISIONLESS EVIL GOVERNMENT.

It would appear that those in control of the NDC, for the time being, were bent on excluding other bona fide members of the Party who may wish to lay democratic claims to who becomes the next flag bearer of the Party by excluding them even before the mortal remains of the demised President were interred. It is also symptomatic of how political party elites in Ghana and Africa worm their way into the confidences of persons perceived as likely to ascend to power positions for purposes of eventual personal economic gain at the expense of the generality of the mass of Party members and the Nation which every President swears to serve under the Constitution

Mr. Mahama and his NDC tricksters are not interested in priorities that would ease the suffering of Ghanaians. They are only interested in prestigious signature projects for the enjoyment of few ruling elites regardless of whether the inflated projects are priorities and value for money or not. I wonder how they could account for the $37 billion they've borrowed so far. Does the NDC government think, despite the massive corruption, they can borrow recklessly and spend their way foolishly into another mandate in 2016, when the nation is over burdened with HIPC and workers wallowing in hunger and over taxed?

Governance under the NDC government is all about 'opium of the people. They enjoy everything under the sun but ask us to wait for our basic needs in heaven. And as they ask us to tighten our belts for future betterment, they've already loosened theirs for immediate consumption. They didn't even respect our intelligence when they said there would be paradise in Ghana if we gave them another mandate after the 2016 elections. The truth is that, everything they promise is a mirage and we will never find comfort under them because; they are con-men with con plans.

Ofosu Kwakye can tickle his stupid self and laugh. The highest growth rate of 14.4% was achieved not because Ndc did anything special but only happened when the oil revenue first came to GDP calculation stream.

The point is that when Npp assumed office, the growth rate was 3.7% and left with a growth rate of 8.4%. What is the growth rate now, 3%?

Ghanaians are living the Ndc hell, now Ghana is rated as the second corrupt riddled country in Africa and first in West Africa even surpassing 419 Nigeria, what a disgraceful bunch of stealing yahoos ruling Ghana.

The Vice-Presidential candidate of the NPP, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, is comparing the economy under the previous NPP government and the current NDC government.

He says every aspect of the economy has plummeted despite the availability of oil revenues which the Kufuor government did not have the benefit of.

He is comparing sector by sector and insisting that the NPP government did extremely better compared to the NDC government.

Dr. Bawumia points out serious economic challenges such as the cedi’s depreciation, energy crisis, slowed economic growth, reduce investments in capital projects, etc.

Government has presented over 10 budets. Minority leader puts it at 17. He says all the budgets promised a better Ghana but nothing has been achieved.

The latest economic mantra of the 2016 budget is to Change Lives. He says government has lost touch with the realities. He maintains the economy is deformed and not reformed Ghana.

You cannot use propaganda to run the economy. Government has delivered one of the worst economic performances since 1957.

The NDC government’s economic performance is a “record of monumental waste of an historic opportunity to transform the economy”.

He says comparisons between NPP economic trackrecord and NDC’s is proof of his claims.

The NPP inherited a GDP growth rate of 3.7% in 2000.

In 2001 under NPP, GDP growth was 4.3%

In 2002 it was 4.5%

In 2003, it wa 5.3%

In 2004 it was 5.7%

In 2005 it was 5.9%

In 2006 it was 6.6%

In 20078 it was 8.4%. This is indeed steady growth and it occurred without revenue from oil.

Under the NPP, the total value of the economy grew from 5.1 to 28.5bn dollars, representing 500% growth even in the face of a global economic crisis in 2007. Ghana was transformed from a low income to a middle-income economy.

In 2009, the economy grew by 7.4%

In 2012, it declined to 8.8%

2014, further down to 4.1%

2015 provisional figures put growth at 4.1%

For the first time since oil production, oil-fueled GDP is higher than non-oil GDP.

Agriculture

Although agriculture grew to 5.3% in 2014it was largely because of logging activities to the detriment of crop and animal farming.

One of the reasons Agriculture is suffering is because of low budgetary allocation. It was 3% of the budget allocated in 2009

In 2012 it went down to 1.9%

In 2013 it went down to 1.03%

And in 2015 to 1.1% of the budget was allocated to both Agric and Fisheries ministries. This is a “paltry allocation” despite convention Ghana has signed on, promising to devote 6% of its budget to Agriculture.

Real growth in agricultures was 0.8% in 2011 and 0.04% in 2015. “We are at the rock bottom. Crops got negative growth.

Food imports were $600m in 2008 but have risen to $1.5bn in 2014. The country is on the brink of a serious shortage in the supply of maize.

Crop production was projected at 5.8% in 2015 and later reviewed 4.1% but the actuals is -1.1%.

Cocoa production

Mass spraying high-tech seeds during the NPP administration doubled cocoa production from 341,000 metric tonnes to 737,000 metric tonnes in 2003-2004 and one million tonnes in 210 to 2011.

There is a special agricultural import levy on basic farm inputs. “This was unbelievable” it increased the cost of farming and the cost of food.

The poor who spend 60% of incomes on food they were hard hit by the increase in food prices. Government later dropped the levy.

In 2014 and 2015 about 180,000 metric tonnes of subsidized fertilizers were allocated by government but was not fully implemented.

There are about 3,000 farmers to one extension officer while the international standard is 500 farmers to one. The extension officers in Ghana are inching towards retirement without any clear plan to replace them.

Although smart phones were desperately supplied to extension officers if transport hurdles are not addressed it will amount to nothing.

Youth in Agriculture program is a typical destruction of policy focus, he says because the yields are low, the beneficiaries are party supporters who walk way without paying for the monies they received.

What exactly have they been transforming if Agricuture and manufacturing sectors have recorded abysmal growth.

Ghana could not achieved even one of the criterion for the third conecutive year in the push for a common currency in ECOWAS.

For the second successive year, the Finance Ministry has refused to publish Ghana’s standing in ECOWAS because it will show Ghana’s “smoothness level” among other West frican economies.

For three successive years Ghana has double-digit budget deficit.

The 6.5% target of GDP deficit which the NDC criticised the NPP government is now the level which the NDC government wants to attain

Public debt

By 2008 total debt was 9.5billion Ghana cedis. In the last seven years under NDC it is now 99 billion Ghana cedis. About 45billion of this is domestic debt.

About 90% of Ghana’ debt since independence has been accumulated under the NDC government. Mahama said 41% was accumulated by the NPP since independence.” I really coundn’t believe my ears. I though I misheard” To be mild this is not true. By 2008 it had decliend

As a result of NPP’s HIPC initiative Ghana debt which was $6.1billion in 2000 declined to 3.8 billion dollars by 2008.

Assume that exchange is 1cedi to 1 dollar today, if you borrow a 100 cedis the equivalent is 100 dollars.

If the exchange rate goes down, it means 100 dollars can be 25 cedis. But you cannot say you borrowed 25 cedis. It is 100 dollars you borrowed.

72% of external debt stock was accumulated during the last seven years.He says interest payment is five times the budgetary allocations of Ministries of Road, Trade and Industry and at least two more ministries.

Yet government is planning further Euro bonds

Interest payment is six times Ghana’s oil revenue in 2015 because of government’s reckless borrowing. He described government’s borrowing spree as going for a microfiance loan which is more expensive to pay for a bank loan which is comparatively cheaper and yet government feels no shame

Energy crisis

He reads a government statement that promised 300MW by October 2012. At the October 4 launch of the NDC Manifesto they said load-shedding would be the ting of the past. They promised 5,000 MW by 2015. Currently we produce less than 2,000MW. Mahama promised to export power.

Mahama said during IEA debate defined loadshedding as supply exceeding demand. Outages is problems of unexpected light outs cuased by problems such as loaded transformers.

At IEA, Mahama described loadshedding as an act of God. A ship anchor damaged the pipeline in 2012 hence the need for loadshedding. Loadshedding will end mid-November 2012.

820 new MW will be added in 2013 and loadshedding will be a thing of the past by the end of my first year, Mahama said.

New deadline was that it will end in May 2013. Mahama said in December 2013 that energy crisis has been solved but Ghanaians are not thanking him. Then Energy Minister asked Ghanaians to pray for rains. Later the Power Minister promised to end ‘dumsor’ by December 2015

Mahama has said the dumsor is not a money problem. Then later he said dumsor will end if we are prepared to pay more for power. In November 2014, he promised that dumsor will end before the elections in 2016.

Bawumia says Ghana would spend 225million dollars if we bought the barge. He refers to ACEP assessment that it will cost us $1bn in 10 years of using the barge. We could have built a 1000MW plant.

“This really does not make sense”

Government owes ECG, VRA while the two owes other stakeholders in the power sector Ghana owes Nigeria $180million.

How much of the huge borrowings have been invested into the power sector. He suggested dumsor is not a priority. Government is also in denial. For the NDC, dumsor is not an economic issue it is a political issue.

He says solving dumsor has not been a priority for government. It will only become a priority as we get close to elections.

Ghana has committed with the IMF to increase the tariffs. The so-called public consultations by PURC are a sham.

Government would lay off workers after the 2016 elections. By December 2015, the plan to lay-off will be ready and after 2016, the size of the civil service will be rationalized, Bawumia quoted an IMF document.

He demands the rationalization plan should be public and transparent to the Ghanaian people.

Increase in capital gains, withholding tax, re-imposition of excise duty, new energy tax and a mitigation levy into the pricing formula for utilities.

The 2016 budget is the same as the 2012 election budget in the way allocations have been done. The Administration sector has been increased for election purposes while other productive sectors have reduced budget allocations.

According to IMF most of government borrowing has been used for consumption not development

He said government has been bloating projects

A runway rehabilitation in Kumasi cost 23.8million dollars but a whole new aerodrome at Ho will cost 25million dollars

Was the runway in Kumasi paved with gold?

He says Ghanaians are finding new ways to describe Mahama since he does not want to be described as incompetent.

He says Mahama’s government is competent at mismanaging the economy

They are very competent at creating looting and sharing

This government is very competent propaganda, competent at perpetuating dumsor

Competent at collapsing NHIS, cancellation of teacher trainee allowances, competent at failing to honour statutory payments, competent at not paying contractors and making SADA Guinea fowls run to Burkina Faso.

And most importantly, it is very competent at failing to deliver its promises.

He says Mahama is upset at being described incompetent but appears to have accepted that his government is corrupt

Mahama has created toxic mixture of incompetence and corruption

The Senchi accord trumpeted by government has been ignored. The government no longer talks about it. Mahama denied going to IMF but he eventually went. He has lost credibility.

It is time to change this government. It is time to build a globally competitive economy.

NPP will make the economy the most business friendly in Africa. He says NPP will pass a fiscal responsibility act to ensure government is bound to be accountable and responsible.

Government will deepen good governance by pushing for the election of DCE and the separation of the Attorney-General from the Ministry of Justice. NPP will implement a national ID and a debit card so that once you have a national ID you will also have a bank account. It will help move Ghana to a cashless economy.

The NPP will also set up an Independent Value For Money Unit

There will be a reduction of corporate tax from 25% to 20%. Abolish VAT on financial services and real estate sales and reduce withholding taxes to 2008 levels.

He says the minimum of 19 cents on international calls is “stone-age” and the cause of SIM Box Fraud and allow the market to determine the price.

NPP will remove all import duties on raw materials and spare parts and reduce capital gains tax.

NPP will restore teacher and nursing training allowances. Government will also make agriculture a “money-making business”.

NPP will set up the Afram Plains Agric Development Authority and the Accra Plains Irrigation project.

The Tema Oil Refinery should not be reduced to a storage facility for the oil distribution companies. NPP will set up the Zongo Development Fund as we promised in the 2012 manifesto and set up a fund to grow the arts and entertainment industry.

It is difficult to become a doctor or lawyer in Ghana than in the US. Yet Ghana imports doctors from Cuba who can’t speak English

“We have to make Ghana a land of opportunity not a land of obstacles”. He system is a ‘Pull Him Down system that must be crashed. Ghana under NPP will never enter into an IMF program.

Change is coming

Hope is coming

Felix Kwakye Ofosu be realistic here, Ghanaians are not fools. They know what are working NHIS is from cash and carry.
The young graduate who is still looking for work under this NDC corrupt government knows of hard times. Ghana is rated the second worst corrupted nation in Africa,and that is the achievement of this NDC Mahama's govenment.
For the last three years Mahama's government can even solve the nations power problem and yet for just 7yrs they have been in power have heaved 100 billion cedis the nation. No wonder Mahama is known as the president of incompetency, because he is the most incompetent leader Ghana has ever known.

Thank you Mr. minister. I like you too much. Thank you for bringing this sorrowful idiot of an economist to his clown and deformed brains. Honestly, this stupid foolish Mamprusi donkey is funny. He thinks he is the only economists in mother Ghana. The best ones don't talk. Is this not the useless guy who destroyed Zimbabwe Economy? The npp can hail him but not discerning Ghanaians. Because you mother fucker idiot wants to be vice President, you and your wee smoking useless and good for nothing old man, Akufo Addo, are going round destroying this country. The fucking idiot whose Fulani wife was sharing free toto on campus? Hopeless and useless clown. What is your single achievement in this country? We can still remember when they held your hand to Dr. Dufour and beg him to employ you useless donkey. You too want to be vice President, by peddling lies. We shall continue to expose your dirty lies. A pathological liar of all time. I wonder if you even have a constituency. Mother fucker liar. Nonsense. Tell us your alternative. Idiot.

Oga Anokye, please address the substance of the man's arguments. Is it true or not that GH has retrogressed or not. Are statutory payments in arrears or not? Is Getfund not in arrears? Does gov't not owe VRA? What has happened to the fertilizer subsidy? Are hospitals accepting NHIS? What happened to the school feeding programme?how abt SADA, GYEEDA etc?
Whatever happened to the money WOYOME was ordered to pay back?
Baba Jamal says he regrets advocating for the sale of a diamond mine in Akwatia to Jospong.
Whatever happened to Subah who were paid $75mil for no work done? What is the current impasse b/n GRA and NCA over Subah & Afriwave all about. I can go on and on... so please,insults will not help. Just address the facts...I'm sure you now realise you can make your point without insults just like rational people do,right?

With or without oil, who owns the oil ? FOREIGN COMPAMIES. WHO OWNS THE GOLD ? FOREIGN COMPANIES. HOW MUCH OF BOTH GOLD AND OIL COMES TO GHANAIANS ? Selling a drill ship that could have been drilling oil for Ghana was NPP's only option of crippling GNPC so they can sell of our oil blocks to their own companies. K.T.Hammond is sitting talking nonsense. Debts are manageable, unless you are incapacitated, but as long as you have assets and at a point Ghana had discovered oil in commercial quantities, why sell a drill ship that had in Angola and Mexico ? Dunce.

Why?, the 14% growth includes oil, Idiot Kwakye, take oil out of this calculation, u will see your foolishness.

Contribution to oil was about 10%. Without oil, the economy grew by 4.7%

My advise to you is that why the so called Economic gurus in your government are hiding any time Dr. Bawumia talks.

You are fooling yourself. Okay. Any sensible person in his right sense will not behave like you.

What is this Ofosu Kwakye mongol communicating? Is this idiot analysing the economy in public with the figures (whether right or not) or he is communicating the analysis made by an informed human being? Just quoting figures which may not be true does not mean anything. The figures should be subjected to statistical testing to determine whether there is a significant improvement or not. This shows how shallow this dead goat idiotic NDC government is and cannot realise that they are destroying the economy. All contributors in support of Ofosu Kwakye on this particular are equally fools and rightly belong to the infantile moronic group of criminals called NDC. Idiots
