Will this 9% increase in wages and Salaries help? No way. The increase has already been caught in the inflation flames flaring up widely. Ghana. Hmmmmm. There is no way out of this Galloping Inflation. Ghanaians should tighten up their belts for very tough economic times. Mahama. You did not need to come back to be the President again but quietly slid out from Ghana to enjoy your loot with your family. Ghana, a country full of Greedy Politicians ready suck the blood out of her body until the body of the country becomes white with no blood left in it.

Do you think at all? The market women will also increase their prices if they hear that the % increase is big. This will rather check inflation. The government should put more 1 cedi, 2 cedi, 5 cedi and 50 pesewas into circulation for the citizens to use mostly these amounts to hustle among themselves.

We are marking and watching economic figures and theories and dollar rate is meaningless if we the street people can’t afford a single decent meal. What is this that we live in perpetual hunger as if we are not part of this country. We just praying not to fall sick because we can’t afford to pay medical bills. Those wallowing in our monies don’t feel it and don’t care. What is the use of big projects to us when we die before their completion? Think about us small we are dying
