Ego at work? 1 year ago

Is the ego of the Trade Minister at work here? We must be careful not to collapse our cement manufacturers. First, regulate the "runaway" exchange rate and then discuss cement prices.

Not while Mahamah and his dzata cements are exploiting abusing and controlling housing, building, and construction from their offices while ordinary ghanaians suffer.

To mean what? How about price of rice, kenkey, tomatoes etc which are needed for survival. Is building a house with cement blocks important for a poor man?

Who are the masses that KT Hammond is representing? This is a call for people with ill-gotten wealth to continue to build houses and exploit young low paid workers!

Hypocritical @AB!! This is not theoretical debate. People like you cry loudest that "things are hard" and lambast the NPP, ignoring the inherent greed of Ghanaian businessmen/women.

NOTHING BUT AN ELECTION BULLSHIT PLOY BY A CLUELESS MINISTER.

This useless Minister can't even regulate his own Julor House corruption and incompetence, let alone have the authority to regulate prices. These thieving nation-wreckers have been in office for more than seven years, and never bothered to regulate prices while Ghanaians suffered until now, with barely four months to go before the elections. So whom do they think they're fooling?

Prof Alex Dodoo of GSA seems to be a petty power drinking chap. How did he think we were all stupid to allow GSA be a price regulator of cement?

Great directive Mr Speaker. Price Regulation will take us back to the long past post colonial era when supply shortages accounted for price regulation. We cannot start walking backwards now.

The Minister should carry out a holistic assessment of the price hikes, starting with food items and come up with realistic policy responses which may include reduction in the rather high and numerous taxes - some of which have outlived their relevance eg Covid Tax. He me need to consider in collaboration with the Finance Minister, actions to tame the Cedi devaluation.

The Speaker and MPs who are opposing this LI know what they will get from the shylocks in the cement cartel. These people will not accept anything brought before Parliament if it goes against their personal and political interests. This buga buga Parliament does not deserve to be classified as a law making institution.
