They spend money without thinking about it. That’s what criminals do.
That useless E-gate shouldn't cost more than 200,000 dollars. Why 1.7 million dollars for that thing. Ghana politicians, can you guys stop stealing the country's money? Bawumia, stop stealing from the public. We are already p ...

THIS USELESS THING IS 1.7MILLION DOLLARS? EIIISH GHANA PAAA NIE
Useless? Sick ndc
Create, loot and share at play. During these difficult times, should our priorities be e-gates? You guys are still refusing to learn
Maybe we should shut the airport then! Same people who want Ghana to be like abrokyire are the same people who complain about development. What is the best practices globally?
@Simeone... W'ano tsakaaa s3 bini...!!!!! Have you paid WAEC to release our pupils exam results before you are aiming to become like "abrokyire"... ???? Kwaseato like you
As usual they are shifting the issue. Lying your way into power will not earn you anything
Mahama said the egate is more expensive than the 250m cost of the airport. Yesterday they reduce to 175m, now the right information ...

All this long explanations of phase one to three and parts and bla bla bla still comes to 240 million. Idiots at GIS trying to justify their thievery with long words
@Amin you need Free SHS before it is canceled. I can see you were very poor at English composition. Please take the advantage now
Hahaha!!!
Those with fraudulent minds always think others are stealing. Shame on you if you belong to that class.
Facts are facts. Thanks for dispelling the mischievous lies and propaganda circulating. Ndc should be doing better than this.
True they always create that propaganda platform so that can do same thing ndc their their president elect mr kelvin taylor and his vice captain smart
Even that 1.7m dollars does not make sense as the cost of the e-gate
They say the thing itself is 1.7 but the installation is 240 million dollars. Herrrr Ghana. People are using pen to loot because they see us as stupid.
But it makes sense when your Mahama paid $7million to have sex with Tracy Boakye and how much did you get from that deal?
evidence? if we don't stop this stomach politics n face facts, our country is going nowhere. these politicians are amassing weather at the expense of the ordinary Ghanaian n we still support their nonsense. God save Ghana. It ...

This is a far-reaching evidence you're irreversibly braindead.

You go explain tayaa. Thieves
Damage control. They think we're fools. You're using 240 million dollars to install something that's 1.7 million dollars. People must be shot in this country.
Do you think Ghana has $240 million sitting somewhere?
Why did it take government and immigration too long to respond to the lies before the election.
the moment they head of ORAL noor p3,they have started bringing the actual cost of things out...siafuor
heard**
Margins is a fraudster. Even America does not have egates. You have to present yourself to immigration for clearance. Kwame Takyi must be arrested and imprisoned
If you are a human, think like a human. The fact that the US has no E-gates does not mean we shouldn't. UK, who colonized Ghana for over 200 years, lunch their drones about a month ago.
By your warped thinking, we should w ...

The Islam insulting animal has been set free out of mental hospital for Christmas holidays.
Ghana Immigration Service thanks for quickly making public details of the contract
NDC was eagerly preparing to add more falsehoods, evil lies, to it to smear Bawumia.
Admit it, it costs $240 million
Nonsene! Do you control MoF budget? Do you know how much was chopped behind your back? Foolish propagada tool. The frog will die in 17 days. We shall soon see
$1.7m for des toys ?OMG are we serious as a nation
NDC members, full of lies and propaganda.
They have lied their way through to power and they continue to lie.

So it's $274m and not $240m. This your explanation is rather confusing you rather keep it to yourself.

High level stupidity. Is KIA the only border,? Spending so much on these toys meanwhile the other borders are under resourced and even non existent in some cases.
this is neeedless walayi kids are still seating under mango tree in most part of the country, displace priorities
So why now that the elections are over? You allowed some filthy propagandists get away with their lies. I have also heard the 200000 or so ghost names on the NSP scheme was a lie. Aaaba, and NPP communicators were silent abo ...

Where were the Ghana Immigration Office speaker when the NDC used that falsehood to win the 2024 election.
Ghana will suffer for our Believe in falsehoods and our incompetent government officers.
NDC and dirty politics. Instead of concentrating on how they are going to fulfill their myopic election promises, they are rather on rampage.
Ghana is in big trouble.
And the immigration thinks that is right. Do they know what 1.7m usd can do in a country like the USA? You people sit in ghana and mention huge money like it's cheap to get. This amount is still too much for these electronic ...
