You will think that after all these huge benefits and the assurance of a secure post retirement life, the majority of them will do justice to all. The truth is the lot are not politically blind and many are corrupt.

I have been following the thoughts and write up of the erudite professor for some time now and come to the conclusion that there is a lot more he can practically contribute to our development as a country. Unlike other thieving and intellectually dishonest professors , he appears to be credible and genuinely patriotic. The government should consider inviting him to join in the country's development.

Doctors even spend over ten hours standing behind theatre tables to perform surgery on them and their families.

Kamoko, look in the mirror…you are the stupid one. How can you say such a thing about what the professor said? Are you one of the looters? These so called justices are paid these huge salaries while still collecting goats and yams as bribes to deliver injustice??? The head teacher who has served for more than 40 years does not even return with a bicycle tire while these thieves milk the economy??? Look at the case of that so called Kofi Jumah—the taxi driver—who took our $300,000 US car for only 4000 GH cedis…how can we countenance such thievery?

I now understand why Ghanaians supported the revolution. Give me a revolution instead of this so called democracy or better yet kleptocracy, the rule by thieves.

This is a very disturbing article. We should not allow this to continue in Ghana. The only words I can find to describe this kind of retirement package is: "Loot and share". A country struggling with so many societal problems should not distribute its limited resources as described in the article. I sincerely hope that the current political leadership will take note of the issues raised in the article and act accordingly in the interest of the suffering people of Ghana. President Mahama please keep to your promise and reset Ghana because so many things are not right in the country. Ghana as you rightly said; "is a crime scene".

You think, you can use the weakness in the payment of other salaries to create confusion in the country. It won't work. In US a High Court Judge takes $24000 a month.

What do you say about that? You only want to incite the public against these officers. Agya Azar, can you tell Ghanaians your monthly salary? You take about $15000 a month.

Good Day Prof Azar,

Good point made. Remember in Ghana most people don't do the mathematics or investment appraisal. They don't also look at the opportunity cost for such an action on the general public purse.

Those huge amounts can be used to create businesses across Ghana to employ the youth. These funds could be used to create Ghana Malls across Africa to generate revenue for the nation. These funds can be used to build Ghana Malls across the world to sell made in Ghana goods and increase export earnings for the state. However, sharing public funds amongst themselves is what interests most people etc. Hospitals lack essential resources like water, energy and oxygen etc. Schools lack text books, chalks, pen, and chairs for pupils etc.

no matter what anyone is doing, such huge salaries is not prudent in a country where we call ourselves poor.
slashes be made and given to our teachers, esp those in primary, jhs and shs... OUR TEACHERS DESERVE BETTER

This salary disparities has been in existence for years since time immemorial and my good professor didn’t see it and now that he is commenting about that is the country we are in.It is sad to live in such a country look at how much salary a graduate teacher who went to the same university with a minister,a member of parliament and a judge at the supreme cour is receiving what work are these authorities doing that is so unique than a teacher who taught them.Even a common person who has never been to school before travel to abroad to seek for a greener pasture and by the time he live in abroad for at least three or four years is able to build a house when even a teacher or a civil servant who has worked for 25years to a retirement cannot even not able to buy a qtr plot .This is quite potty as a country and all the successive governments never execute charges in salary disparities because they were being benefited.What is good for a goose must be good for a gander I will appeal to president Mahama vein the father of all to tackle this issue seriously and see to bring sanity into the salary inequality of the workers some are enjoying while others are sobbing

I think that amount is too much when ordinary Ghanaian worker can't afford 2 square meals a day. Judges are not the only intellectuals in Ghana. There are many nurses and graduates from universities who are unemployed. I think, their salaries should much with their education as in other professions. I strongly suggest that their pay be reduced.
