DR BAWUMIA ,THE PROPHET, ON THE $250 MILLION NDC TOOK OUT OF THE $1BILLION EUROBOND FROM BOG AND DEPOSITED FOOLISHLY & NONSENSICALLY AT THE UNITED BANK OF AFRICA (UBA)--------READ BELOW------ Beyond the issue of legality, there is the issue of prudence in the management of Ghana’s resources. How do you go and borrow money for 10.75% (US dollar) and give it to someone to lend it to you at over 20% (GHC)? In effect you are paying over 30%! Assuming stable exchange rates, Ghana will be paying additional interest of at least $50 million a year on this transaction. It really is reckless. The government is claiming that the funds were “idle”. Really? What does that mean? Why do you borrow funds and pay interest on it if you do not have use for them at the moment? It is clear that the GIIF does not have a portfolio of projects ready to invest in and it is weird to allocate a whopping sum of $250 million to them at this time. Is the Minister aware that the country owes N-Gas some $100 million? What about other contractors who are owed money by the government? How can you owe so much, have so much to do and yet claim to have “idle” borrowed funds? The allocation of such an amount to a private bank also has major macroeconomic consequences for a relatively small economy like Ghana. It increases the deposits of the banking system and ultimately the money supply. It has inflationary and exchange rate depreciation consequences and would make it more difficult for the government to meet its inflation target. I am surprised that the government is oblivious of these consequences. The Funds should stay at the Bank of Ghana. After all the Bank of Ghana, on its own or through its external fund managers of the caliber of internationally reputable banks like UBS, JP Morgan, Citibank, Merrill Lynch etc. can undertake whatever investment of the country’s foreign exchange that the government would like it to undertake

These filth can be found mostly in poor areas where they can't afford to pay for private refuse collection. Ye these are the very people who will not listen to reason to change non performing governments. They are so vulnerable to the extent that Ghs 5 can buy their votes no matter how much you teach them. This amount could have been used to buy more trucks and hire more hands to collect the refuse. Are we animals? This is not about any particular party. Its a general problem for all citizens.

Believe it or not, my parents and and all generations in my household are amongst the intellectually and environmentally smart 5% in Ghana. This assertion is evidence-based.

It would help if many Ghanaians will take responsibility for their sanitation, instead of wallowing in the filth they generate themselves.

Water and Sanitation is an ongoing exercise and it needs not only as many citizens as possible to participate but it needs institutions connected to this sector to coordinate with each other.

that in no way will never ever help arrest the situation as we have on our hands now.. the general lack of discipline by the majority of our people must ruthlessly be uprooted from our psyche or habit by applying very rigorous and appropriate sanctions to deal with all such offenders as caught in the act of littering or throwing garbage in inappropriate locations, ....

1 Good Road network
2 Energy
3 Water accessible to all
4 Sanitation
REWS, all the developed countries have it sorted. Lesson for Ghana. REWS should touch everyone; should reach every where city town, village. It can be done with revolutionary impetus. Opportunity to create employment. People should take pride to have REWS sorted in Ghana. It will Brand Ghana. Attract tourists and investors. Politicians delay no further. Too shameful for poor sanitation and lack of clean water to claim soo many lives.
