  TOR is ready for any body to bring in crude .From reliable sources, private entrepreneur have approach TOR management but nothing came out because politicians of this country are now owners of most BDCs and they do not have storage facilities .When TOR is running ,the tanks will be filled .This will affect their business .The country should suffer for few greedy politicians to gain .The deal with "PS" is just a mouth talk to convince the good people of Ghana.Today is TOR tomorrow it will be .........Please citizens of Ghana wake up for politicians are using gov.firms ,properties etc to enrich themselves .

  I knew this was coming. Why are we mortgaging all our national assets. Our children will have nothing to show for in their own country in future. When all the wealth of a nation ends in the hands of foreigners, the citizens of the land become aliens in their own back yard.
  
  TOR's problem is shear mis-manangement and we can save it by even bringing in experienced Ghanaians who are working in the industry even from the diaspora instead of putting all these Phds who have no business backgrounds in charge of such unique national treasures.
  
  Nkrumah will indeed weep in his grave if we go this way.
  
  If the Saudi's want to be in joint venture with Ghana, there are many areas they can go into joint venture with us but not in this strategic TOR.
  
  What is wrong with our leaders? This is getting insane indeed.
  
  If Government felt energy is important why did the Gov't not use the proceeds from the Eurobond to solve this problem?
  
  Ask the Saudis to help us in building industries that will help create jobs for the masses who are unemployed and so we can transform our economy.
  
  We must not allow foreigners to control some of the sensitive and strategy national assets such as TOR. If anything at all the Government should float bonds for Ghanaians to benefit from the ownership of TOR but not to take short cuts and mortgage this asset for the benefit of foreigners.
  
  Nothing is so painful than to go to some of our African countries and you realize that many businesses are owned by foreign companies, and only the menial jobs are left for the citizens of the country. The citizen virtually become slaves in their own countries.
  
  Ghana has come a long way to go this way and we should do everything humanly possible to resist the attempt on the part of Government even to bring this discussions to the table.

  ILLEGAL SCALE ADJUSTMENT IS KILLING THE INTEREST OF THE YOUTH IN COCOA FARMING. LBCs TO BLAME. THEY ARE USING PURCHASING CLERKS AS A TOOL TO CHEAT FARMERS
