What is so special about DSTV that its subscription cannot be cancelled? For your information many of their customers including me have long abandoned them for their repeated programmes which have become monotonous

Monotonous and expensive. They prize their subscriptions in dollars yet when dollar went down, they stayed where they are. Criminals. Nigerians pay half of what we pay here

Government offices is a place to work and not to entertain. It is not only the cost of the dstv subscription. It is a waste of very valuable time to watch TV at work time and in the office.

What is the internet connectivity at the jubilee house for? You have access to more news online that you could get on DSTV. In any case most people there, especially the women only watch telenovelas and the men sports channels. Let's be honest to ourselves for once. This is a good move because the level of unseriousness because of television in our institutions is unbelievable.

It is actually not about the cost cutting resulting from. The subscription, it is about the indirect cost incurred as a result of public servants laying aside their work to watch TV. You know it is very costly to have people paid to work lay aside their work to do other things. So I applaud the move but our emphasis should be the disruption it creates in the public service. So quickly get it across in all public offices except waiting rooms or receptions

Maybe if the NPP hadn't bankrupted the country, we would have money to pay the nurses. This agreement was signed by the NPP last year, which they(NPP) failed to fulfill. They've now put all the burden on the NDC to clean up the mess created by them.

As far as meeting the nurses halfway, it is exactly what the NDC proposed, but the leadership of the GRNMA(whom appears to be an NPP member) has taken an uncompromising posture. This whole thing reeks of politics.

Good move
Civil servants go to work to work not watch TV
If you want to watch TV, watch it in your house like everyone else
Why should my tax be used for you to watch TV - nonsense. Do you know how much tax i paid at Tema harbour to clear my car?
And please Mr Mahama, reduce the cost of clearing goods at the harbour- we are suffering !

I thought it was based on losing productive time watching TV, but not necessarily the cost.

How much does it cost the tax payer on monthly basis?
JM your decision on the DSTV subscription is just a drop of water in the ocean, very ineffective.

When is the President going to initiate the process to repeal Act 919, the Ghana Hybrid System that gives sovereign Ghana less than 21% of oil revenue while the Foreign Oil Companies go home with 82%, while all other oil producing African countries, including Cote D'Ivoire, Togo, Benin R, Nigeria, Cameroun, Gabon, Angola, Mauritania, Libya a d countries in South America, Southeast Asian and the Middle East are reaping 44-85% oil revenue.
Is JM aware the people surrounding him are ill advising him for their personal greedy benefits ?

Otherwise we won't have a cyclical phenomenon of going to the IMF for bailouts every 4 years and having to bear harsh economic conditionalities

Ghanaians are tutee of our corrupt politicians.

The joke of the century! How much does It cost the Jubilee house to subscribe to DSTV?
It President Mahama means business he should rather slash the huge budgetary allocation to the Jubilee House and not this triviality

The question that must be asked is what the impact of this action is? Is it to avoid distraction of public service workers at offices or to cut cost. Cost-cutting exercises should always be methodical, focused on high value-expenditure items that can be scaled back transportation (air-tickets, fuel etc), new construction projects that do not have economic viability and drivers of expenditure such as new recruitment and outrageous perks.

This can never happen in Nigeria. The government will rather justify why it should buy brand new cars and private jets. Who do us like this biko!
