The useless liar of an MP for Obuasi. If it is the IMF, what is wrong with that. Do we have to do things that do not benefit everybody? We have to cut our coat according to the size of our material not about our size. We need people who could be honest instead of political talkertives or noise makers in parliament. Kweku Kwarteng is just an NPP voting machinery making unnecessary comments and following issues blindly. Why, Kweku why? Obuasi is collapsing and very soon we shall reduce the number of MPs there. You and Ennin will see who is who? Stop the noise and think about a better things to help Obuasi survive. You don't criticize everything when you know it will help the whole country.

Obournana, whenever I read such comments of partisan fanatics like you, I really become very happy! My only problem is that, unfortunately, I was born into such a country with so many idiots like you.

I guess you need to switch deals with Saudi Arabia if you need cheap gases to buy. Idiot. Can OPEC afford to let its oil business collapse by succumbing to the mess in Russia, with sanctions rocketting Russian economy , whose reason is to ruin economies of countries that largely rely on oil as their foreign exchange system? who can afford the degradation it may cause its environment, scaling up production to meet the lowering prices, improving the collapsing economy? The world leaders knew the reason for global economic crisis but refused to curb it. This seems to be the wrong time for such action. the poor always pay the price.

Well, the good reason is, KSA has discounted US oil prices and now sells to the US at about $74 a barrel. but the price stays the same for other countries. The dollar as a global reserve currency is now threatened by the Chinese atheists and the Russian war lords. Global economy could be threatened if the dollar continues to loose its ground. Things are really falling apart, we are heading towards a total shutdown of global economic system. It could take some extra centuries or decades to recoup.

NPP should stop giving IMF a bad name. The Fund didn't run down the economy so whatever policy directives they are asking the government to do should not be used to tarnish their image.

It is time we realize that freebies are not sustainable. It is because of the freebies mentality that we have developed artificial taste for foreign made goods.

It's annoying these days in Ghana. If this tax would be used for Ghana's benefit it would be better. But it will end up in people's pockets just like all others.
