SOURCE : Class fm online.com---------
Ghana is paying six times its total oil revenue as interest on the country’s total public debt stock; that’s the computation done by former Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.

“We’ll reach GHC99billion by the end of this year 2015,” the Running Mate to the Flagbearer of the biggest opposition Party said in a post-budget presentation interview with Richard Sky of Citi FM.

“The interest on this debt alone is going to be six times Ghana’s oil revenue,” Dr Bawumia said.

“When we found oil, we were happy that we found oil, but the borrowing of this Government has compromised the whole oil discovery; you need six times our oil revenue just to pay interest on the debt, not even capital, so, it is a really sad development,” he complained.

Sanjay if you want to be a life servant or a slave in Abu Dhabi it is your choice. For us in Ghana, we think Mahama has not served us well and for that reason he must go. We don't want him to continue to be our President. We need a new person we can trust to take charge of the affairs of the country as our President and that person is Nana.

I know the Ghana Government issues passports, but is it the Ghana Government or the foreign Government that issues visas?
What if the Kuwaitis, as a sovereign sate, issue the visas anyway?

When you see a news item like this, it means there is an agreement in place between the Kuwaiti and Ghana governments to halt the issue of Visas to Ghanaian girls going to be maidservants.

Little Abdul in Kuwait was in the shower with his mother one day when, after looking down, he said "What's that?", pointing to her pubic area. "That's my sponge", says his mother. "Oh, OK", said Abdul.
A few weeks went by and Abdul's' mother had to go into hospital for an appendectomy. When she came out she had her pubic area shaved.
Abdul, upon seeing this, said to his mother, "Where is your sponge?" His mother replied, "It's OK, I've just lost it. It will turn up somewhere."
A little while later Abdul comes bursting into the room and says to his mother, "Mum, I've found your sponge." "Where?", says his mother, wondering where Abdul could have found it.
"It's upstairs. The maid is using it to wash daddy's face."

Why single out one agent?the issue has got nothing to do with the agency but the host of this girls,so if you re stoping the practice it should cut across,no agency should be put above the other since the problems has nothing to do with travel arrengement.This goes to expose the ruling government about their commitment to girl child welfare,the finance minister few days ago was lied about how government initiated programs in this direction to help the girl child education far in the USA.Take note of the ages in the article,young girls as low as 17 years re among those rescued in Kuwait,you see when it comes to sweet talks you can trust the NDC government for that,buildings as old as methuselah is coated as new projects in their green book,but more often the reality hit them in the face and they forget that the lied,Mrs Obama foundation I hope is reading this,if they really want to help they should do through the US ambassador and not hand the money to this corrupt leadership.

People of Arab and Asian origin are fond of maltreating help-girls and men-servants they take back to their countries.

I personally met some like that in Lebanon and each one of these had horrible stories to tell.

I was no government representative, just someone on tour of duty with the military. Much as I felt sorry for these ones there was no way I could help them.

Let government review this situation and stop giving visas to girls going to those Arab and Asian countries, if it's just to be helpers.

Visa ban only in Ghana is not enough measures to resolve the problem. Agents can maneuver to get prospective travelers Visa from any of our West Coast neighboring Countries.
Therefore, Gulf States and Saudi Arabia Missions in all ECOWAS members States should be consulted and Agreement Signed to banned Visa to a Ghanaian Passport Holder to the Gulf States or Saudi Arabia,until further notice,as soon as possible.I think that would help to bring immediate end to the problem.
