It is a shame for Ofori Attah to boast of free SHS when only entering first year students are going to benefit. This is a HUGE SHAME. The whole exercise smacks of cop out, big time.

THE NDC PARTY IS REALLY BEREFT OF VISION, IDEALS AND IDEAS. NO DOUBT, GHANA HAS BEEN RULED FOR 28 YEARS OUT OF 60 YEARS, AS AN INDEPENDENT NATION, UNDER THE NDC, YET GHANA BECOMES POORER, DEBT RIDDEN AND RETROGRESSIVE AND UNDERDEVELOPED, AFTER NDC RULE. HARUNA IDRISSU AND HSI FELLOW NDC THUGS, THIEVES AND ROBBERS ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN MONEY FOR THE POCKETS AND OFFSHORE BANK ACCOUNTS IN SWITZERLAND, MAURITIUS ETC, HENCE THEY HAVE NO GOOD THOUGHTS AND IDEAS FOR RUNNING GHANA. THEIR STATEMENTS ARE INCOHERENT, SHALLOW, POOR AND NOTHING FOR GHANA'S PROGRESS.

I don't really know the kind institutions that trained these NDC idiots. Fiscal consolidation and growth policy are mutually exclusive options for solving economic problems and so if Mahama concentrated on inflation targeting to achieve fiscal consolidation and Nana is using supply-side principles to achieve growth, how do these stupid NDC babies try to say they are Mahama's economic policies. Look, inflation targeting is demand-side economic policy and it phased out in the late 70s because it has so many deficiencies. My highest qualification is HND yet, I think, I am far better than these NDC gurus who boast of Masters degrees and PhDs.

What at all do these idiots want? You were saying it wasn't possible to remove the taxes. Now some are saying, the taxes removed will lead to reduced revenue and is unrealistic. Now some of you are saying more taxes have been removed. You people are not even ashamed for having introduced all these numerous taxes in the 1st place.

If Kufuor and the NPP had borrowed irresponsibly and mismanaged the economy like John Mahama and the NDC, would Mahama have the space to borrow? Besides that, are you convinced that it was only Mahama who constructed schools and hospitals and generated electricity in Ghana? Some of you need to think deep.

Let me make it simple. The budget was specific on some of the policies of the NPP govt so you can measure them. The minister mentioned the implementation of free SHS, reduction and removal of certain taxes. If you are a struggling parent and you don't pay school fees next academic year, that money can be used to solve your other problems. I can say the same for the taxes and the other initiatives. If you can't appreciate these basic things, then no one else can help you.

Mr Minority Leader, let Ghanaians speak for them selves concerning who they trust. Considering the record margin by which your 'then incumbent' party lost the elections, you are in no position to speak for Ghanaians in general on the issue. However you are at liberty to speak for yourselves if you so please.

Guys, no offense. But we live in a dangerous country. My point is some of this leaders very negative minded and is seems like a trend it keeps reoccurring.

Npp think they are smart and they behave like Kwaku Ananse .How can tax relieve which will take effect in 2018 appears in 2017 Budget. Indeed we are in interesting times. They promised us to cut the cost of electricity bill because Ghanaians are being burdened. I can say without fear or favour that they will not be any significant change in the price.Now they are on field playing and it is not easy to score a cheap goal.They should not complain that the pitch is not good.They promised to restore the trainees and nurses allowance when voted to power within three months. Now they shifting the goal post to September.
