Mahama ,built the first and only LPG producing company in Ghana and is today responsible for supplying about fifty percent of the Gas the people uses annually, Mahama gave us the only befitting international standard airport,which is one of the best in Africa today,
Since independence Ghana had only Komfo Anokye and Korlebu as the only two big hospitals. Mahamal built Bank of Ghana hospital,University of Ghana medical centre, Ridge expansion, Afari Military hospital, Sewia hospital,Tamale Teaching hospital expansion, Maritime hospital etc
Mahama built the universities of Energy and Allied science and of Energy and Natural Resources.
Ghana had only six states universities since independence with eleven presidents coming before Mahama.
Mahama built your first international standard boxing Arena, now our boxers wouldn't have to fight international bouts home away from home.
Mahama did all this and much much many in three and a half yrs borrowing only sixty billion cedis with one oil field.
So you NPP clowns can keep on deceiving yourselves and praise those your corrupt criminal leaders who have borrowed six hundred billion cedis with three oil fields who did nothing but loot and plunge Ghana into an economic hell.
The vast majority of Ghanaians are not as stupid and hypocritical like you.

You are rather confused. Some sectors of the economy are working 24 hours before Mahama was born. The military, police have 24-hour services as well as some big companies, and not all companies.

Now, have you asked your Mahama about the companies he would use to support his 24-hour bullshit? Your Mahama took $35million loan to rehabilitate Komenda Sugar factory and is the factory working hiring how many people?

No government can impose any 24-hour economy activities on any company anywhere because it all depends on "Demand and Supply". Where there is demand, supply is right there.

If you are selling something and there is no demand for it, will you continue selling it?

Nee, how old are you, and is this the first time you are hearing that some companies can work around the clock, run three shifts?

In the advance economies, when demand slowed to the lowest level, workers are laid off, why? Because there is no demand, and companies cannot pay workers to idle around.

MISCONCEPTIONS OF THE 24-HOUR ECONOMY
Many of those who have been contributing to the 24 hour economy conversation are either disingenuous or ignorant. One common flaw in the positions espoused by the advocates is the confusing of production with productivity. For example, running three shifts at Passport office or DVLA will not necessarily be beneficial to the economy. The delays experienced at these two particular institutions are due more to corruption, incompetence and poor work culture. I can say without hesitation that the extra costs of running additional shifts will far exceed the extra the revenues that will be generated by the service providers. The cost will not be limited to the salaries of the personnel that will be employed. With the salaries come several other related social costs of employment, including welfare, security, theft and misuse of organizational resources, etc.
If the straight 8-hour day workers perform their duties diligently, honestly and competently, there will be no need for extra shifts at these institutions. I would rather say that these organisations are currently over-staffed. I have always marveled why some public institutions can have the filing of their financial statements fall into three or more years arrears when their offices are littered with desktop and laptop computers. What is amore appalling is that the CEOs and Financial Controllers or Directors of these institutions remain at post and enjoy outrageous perks.
I recall that about 10 years ago when I worked for a public institution, a team of 8 managers were to undertake an important out-of-office assignment. It was estimated that the assignment would take 3 to 4 days. I offered a simple Microsoft Excel solution to handling the assignment. The job was done in 3 hours.
For companies engaged in physical production of goods, the need for extra shifts will be spontaneous, provided there is demand for their output. In the 1970s I worked at a Factory which operated 24/7. Currently in Tema, for instance, quite a number of companies operate 24/7. So this in not new. The confusion must STOP. Extra shifts do not create ‘real jobs’; increased and sustainable demand for goods and services will create REAL JOBS and EXTRA SHIFTS.

NPP 24-HOUR NATION-WRECKING LOOTERS

Mahama is preaching a 24-hour economy while your NPP galamsey party is busy carrying on with a 24-hour looting and nation-wrecking. And what message does your NPP's useless and incompetent 3-legged race horse Aplanke Bawumia have other than the lies and recycled broken promises that he carries around in his briefcase? I guess you thinkk Ghanaians are too naive not know about the deception of ananse Akufo-Addo in his devious attempt to paint bawumia as a person with clean hands, when Ghanaians already know that incompetent Aplanke bawumia actively participated in his Julor House NPP galamsey government's decision-making process, and also helped in the mismanagement and collapse of Ghana's economy. Mahama's 24-hour economy proposal is a sound proposal, unlike your NPP 24-hour looting and mismanaging.

Look at this bofrot face fool. They run the economy far better than you invompetent NPP criminals. The record is clear. Look at inflayion, the exchange rate, the lack of infrastructure... you cannot compare this current 8 years of incompetent looting to John Mahama's reign of unprecedented infrastructure, stable exchange rate and the fixing of Ghana's epileptic power supply.

Mr. Habib, are you OK? Was JM who created the power outages in 2014-2016? look at a thief who was convicted in Australia over fraud.
Were you in Ghana during K4 time when he gather pastors to pray at the Volta Lake? Since you came to power, in one breath, you accuse JM of signing for too much power that Ghana does not need. in another breath, you say he did not solve the crisis when in 7 years you have not added a kilowatt of electricity. NPP is full of people with empty heads.
