Shallow comments. For those who understand the obvious, why should we give any of our gold to foreigners? What stops us from taking full control.? Mental slavery. Emancipate yourself. You think the whiteman or chinese should always get a share of your gold. This is a low hanging fruit. We can hire expensive experts and borrow capital and keep 100% of profit rather than share it with chinese or the Australians. Why can't most of you see that. Do you realise if we bring the foreigners we still pay same price for the experts? The Chinese would actually bring in their labourers and pay them more than our doctors. Let's stop politics and focus on ideas.
If you want a 24 hour economy, this is what you do. Make government lean and mean. Plan and execute ideas with a clear understanding of what your objectives are and stop that day dreaming like the 24 hour economy that mahama is promising. If you are not an idiot how do you expect anyone to do a 24 hour economy when they are not even capable of providing power for an 8 hour economy. The foolish mahama should be telling us how he is going to provide the power to run all the factories that I am assuming he is at least intelligent enough to think of. Is he thinking of selling kenkey at night as 24 hour economy?
Mahama is just a wicked fool. He has nothing but soundbites to offer.
A true leader should have a vision. If Mills had simply followed what Rawlings did, we would have been worse off. I don't expect Bawumia to look at things through the eyes of Addo either. That would imply a lack of vision. Bawumia have at least made me sit up and listen. We know his boss promised the moon and gave us the ugliest government we have seen. Does it mean anyone who promises is telling a lie? Well, as far as lies go or come, no one is better than majama. He has constantly ommitted to tell us how Mills died. He lied about KUMFEM. He lied about his ability and integrity. Anyone with ability will not be talking about a 24 hour economy when the structures to achieve that are simply not there. If you think you are God and simply say let there be light and there would be light, then you are an idiot for thinking so or letting yourself be fooled. Do you think a man who does airbus and bus branding is going to help you. If you think so then you deserve all the additional suffering mahama will bring onto you.

Dona dona. Stop fooling my friend. Bawumia is not Akffo addo just as Mills was not rawlings. Rawlings and addo have so much in common. Dictators both of them. killers but both were lucky to have a decent vice. If Bawumia is competing with Nkrumah, Acheampong or maybe and I mean a big maybe K4, then no chance as you say. But it's maraja that Bawumia is competing with this time. Just 8 years ago, as a vice presidential candidate, he wipe the floor with jamaha. Now that Bawumia is a whole Presidential Candidate, mahaja. Run. Did you hear me hajama. Run. Don't look back mahama. Run

You have been the vice president for almost 8 years did you just wake up and realize that this is what the country needs to do to be in charge of their own resources? Pitiful leaders. Now you want to be in charge so you are coming up with lies just to win a vote. Shame on both NDC and NPP . Ghanaians should look for a third party to vote for , you can not keep doing the same thing every 4 years and expect a different result, that's the definition of insanity

Ghana is a great country with great minds who have showed the capacity and human manpower to run the country.

Ghana under Bawamia will be a great country. As l sat and listened to him and also followed him keenly the past years. The man is a visionary man.

He is the vice president and his decision can be accepted or rejected by the president.

This is how vice presidents go through the whole world, not the final decision-maker.

The president appoints the finance minister and has the power.The finance minister wields power than the vice.

The vice president is the best to carry Ghana forward.
l hear all the unthinkable comments from people from the opposition.

I see they have nothing good for the country. If Ghana makes a mistake in bringing in NDC it will be a backward move.

All these good policies that are building blocks for any economy will be derailed.Ghanaians your future lies in the hands of Npp.

Bawumia is really the best Man of the moments.
The propaganda is not patriotic at all and we see and hear insults.

Let's lie and print an issue to stick is not forward moving.And people believe the propaganda because they do not take the time to search the truth or just pure hate....

This breaks the future of the country

Chimney Hanson is not into politics but an objective observer of what is going on. I have been a strong critique of this government but thankfully I still have a bit of objectivity left. What is the alternative? You let's put kamaha's tendency to steal aside for now and talk about policies. What is 24 hour economy. Do you think it's like God saying let there be light and there would be light. Don't you think you should be asking mahama to explain himself. Is he going to be doing night farming or selling kenkey. Is he going to be build factories? Has he brought in the power supply or it would be done sugar cane factory style, building the factory and wonder where the basic ingredient for sugar is coming from later.
I can't help but notice that after Airbus alone , someone should have plenty of money to feast on but he wants more because he was not jailed earlier

However, the reserves need to be explored well enough to even have a chance for collateralization. That kind of exploration is costly and time-consuming. We are talking of a 5 - 10 year time frame for exploration and zero funding for that operation.

I'm glad DMB is one leader who has an eye on GH gold. He keeps on harping on our gold and how if utilised properly, could bring GH the prosperity we so yearn. As for me , I even want GH to buy all our gold produced just like we do with cocoa, in order to get the necessary benefits out of our gold. How can GH authorities record our total gold sales in a particular year to be 2 billion dollars yet in Switzerland alone in that year, gold imports from GH amounted to 6 billion dollars.
