Ghana can't make progress without Mills

There has been extra-ordinary feature with Professor Mills’ government, which no
other leader, pro the epoch of Nkrumah, has been adroit to pull off. Should we
vaguely ignore him, then it would be intricate for us Ghanaians to recuperate from
the trap, which enmesh us into slavery. Till fifty years ahead, through persistent
revitalization of our gaffes to make development in our society, it could be
tantamount to his vision today. The truth is that, other bodies of his governance do
not adhere fully to the agenda of his vision, given their autonomy to execute orders
in their administration. This is also due to the Christian attribute of the
President which also confines with the Fundamental Human Rights and freedom. Human
beings vary from animals and this comprehends with the President’s rule. Everything
begins on a spark being electron, very negligible but evolves into pressure to carry
planes, but this to the Ghanaian is claptrap. Most people I
cross-examined about Prof Mills, within my vicinity substantiated that his works
are only of paper, especially the inflation reduction, Improved gross international
reserves, Currency Stabilization, 2010 Macroeconomic great Performance, Single
Spine Single Spine Salary implementation, Revenue Agencies Integration, Domestic
Financing, Convergence Criteria For the first time in 9 years, Payment of TOR debt,
Foreign Direct Investment, Increment in Capitation Grant, Free Uniforms, Free
Exercise Books, Expansion of School Feeding Programme , Full Tuition Fees for
Teachers, Replacing Schools Under Trees , Revamping Collapsed Science Resource
Centers , Reduction in SHS Duration, Savings on the Reduction of Appointments, The
Savannah Accelerated Development Authority (SADA). Increment in Producer Price of
Cocoa, One-Time Premium Payment in the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS),
completion of Preparatory works including value for money audits, tendering,
negotiations and required approvals, are all mere at the countenance of government
and meaningless in the lives of Ghanaians. Prior to the study of the mere atom,
medicine which is of great purpose in our lives couldn’t have been possible, but
for Ghanaians, on the initiation of the study of an atom, would exclaim,” Leave the
mere nasty atom and make better solutions to diseases”. For us to be able to
supersede the whites in decision making for better livelihood, we ought to begin by
means of considering the meager facts for rectification, which is the foundation
for white’s success, and thus reckon with Prof. Mills’ administration, which is to
gradually progress into remarkable freedom from the chaos of our society in line
with Nature.. Let me take this great prospect to cite an example on the general use
of English language in our educational system. Mere language leading to
impertinence in our products or made in Ghana Goods, and other
diverged humiliations. Due to the fact that our studies, being a change from bad to
good through acquisition of skills, are communicated in the foreign Language, it
unconsciously, distract Ghanaians to have psychological value for whites leading to
their promotion in all fields, counting on their products. And inline with the
above, consider the great investments made for them through these modus operandi.
What will refrain you not to take your plate to them for food in turn?. A mere
language driving Ghanaians into slavery. Sometimes we Ghanaians goes to the extent
of communicating to our neighbors, our wealth, through the use of foreign products.
These propelled Dr Kwame Nkrumah to change his name from the English to present to
serve as a role model for Ghanaians, but seemed nonsense in their eyes and later
cried for him after his demise. This is comparable to Prof Mills. Ghanaians with
the same respective when at hospitals, through the systematic
medical approach, they blame physicians, giving them useless medicines at the
initial stage of their illness, anticipating for C class ones. My fellow Ghanaians
let us open our eyes, because every thing is systematic by nature, thus from mere
to great, compared to growth from childhood to adulthood. With, Prof Mills, your
turn will surely come and be compensated for the delay, irrespective of how you
were created, academically, physically and emotionally. This is in his vision, all
context in his treasured promise. The most magnificent thing I found of him, is his
provision of solutions, through scientific approach, of which most blacks lack. He
recently investigated on the poor performance of students resulting from
Teacher-student relations, lateness to class by teachers and students, right up to
the food designed to enhance brain’s performance. Consequently, he has provided
capitation to expand schools to accommodate those who suffered the above
errors whilst he find solutions for the newly recruits. What a human Justice, he is
fair to everybody rather than the rule of lion comparable to Idi Amin of Uganda.
Had it not been the tenet of God through Prof. Mills I would have encouraged him to
rule with iron hands for that will award him respected, as propound by Idi Amin
which can be calculated as similar arrogance in some of our aspirants as 2012 flag
bearers.
Throw light to these points too.
Completed Projects • DNA Laboratory at KBTH • Refurbishment of the Tower section of
the Medical Block in KBTH • Expansion of the Reconstructive Plastic Surgery and
Burns Centre at KBTH • A new Reproductive Health Centre at KBTH
The following abandoned projects in Accra-Tema Metropolis were reactivated in 2009
for completion • Usher Polyclinic Theatre completed • Maternity Block at Achimota
Hospital • Upgrading of Maamobi, Kaneshie and Mamprobi Polyclinics • Contract has
been awarded for the construction of maternity and children’s block at Tema General
Hospital
To the above outline should we Ghanaian expect manner to fall from Heaven without
integral respect for the address of Minor problems as started by our Dear President
his Excellency Prof. John Evan Atta Mills, then it is akin to snuffing at the
countenance of air around sea shore. You can admit or dispute the fact, but what is
coherent is due to happen. Cast your vote for the future.
Happy X’mas
