Funny and strange when F in chains students are persistently trying to tell B+ students how to get their academic performance right. F wants to teach B+. Hahaha, like it was not just 10 months ago - when we saw a certified classic example of how not to govern a nation. If only the bunch of thieving, clueless, tribalistic nation wreckers would shut their lying and deceptive mouths, some people might just mistake them for patriotic, honest and competent people.

@FakeNii
This shallow minded Akyem Nii still thinks majority of Ghanaians have forgotten so soon how the NPP reduce Ghana to a crime scene, borrowing, using Data Bank to take huge and unwanted loans and sharing, selling our Gold with that fake pastor Kusi Boateng, with different dates of birth and different mothers. That was the time your thieving NPP should have used it for the railways you are talking about. We are resetting Ghana, just keep your mouth shut ok.

The truth is both President John Dramani Mahama and Cassiel Ato Forson are dangerously corrupt. Both have been caught in bribery and stealing cases respectively in the past.

How many of the 189 can engage in an intelligent debate? Most of these NDC MPs cannot express their thoughts in English language.Koku Anyidoho in the past wanted to teach Ato Forson English language.

Akufo-Addo came with a lying tongue, speaking the English you so desperately desires, what happened after that? Woeful performance, Stealing, unintelligent, fake lawyer, corrupt, no ideas at all in governance, and nd these thieves came and destroyed our once beautiful country. Today, the country Ghana is steadily coming back to it's former state, with prices of commodities, fuel, etc being reduced for the ordinary Ghanaian and infrastructural projects going on in all the regions. Give JM thumbs-up ok.

There's nothing in your Coconut head to understand the wisdom in Mr David Opoku's statement. Corrupt John Mahama cannot complete the Accra -Kumasi Road and the railway lines, but wants to waste our monies on fanciful highway

Why couldn't you solve Ghana's problems when In power with your practical budgets for 8years? Though, things are not all that good, it is better than those days under npp.

GHANA IS A WASTED BANKRUPTED HOPELESS NATION OF IMBECILE CROOKED CORRUPT FREELOADING LEADERS AND ELDERS CALLED "ARTICLE 71 OFFICEHOLDERS".

GHANA'S SUCCESSIVE BUDGETS ARE JUST LIKE TOILET PAPERS, ALL USELESS AND UNWORKABLE.

BUTTOCKS POWER OR BOTTOM POWER! BUTTOCKS SIZE POWER MATTERS IN BANKRUPTED GHANA AND THE REST OF BACKWARD CORRUPT AFRICA;S CORRIDORS OF POWER.

IF AN AFRICA WOMAN IS NOT BLEACHED AND HAS NO MASSIVE BUTTOCKS, WOE BETIDE HER. BANKRUPTED GHANA IS RIFE WITH NAKED CORRUPTION AND LACK OF MORALS AND TRUE CHRISTIANITY.

"GALAMSEY" ILLEGAL GOLD MINING AND GOLD SMUGGLING BY BOTH GHANAIAN MALES AND FEMALES, HAVE WORSONED THE WHOLE ECONOMIC AND DEVELPOMENT PROBLEMS..

GOLD WHICH HAS TO BE EXPORTED BY GHANA PLC FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL GHANAIANS, IS SMUGGLED OUT BY GHANAIAN LEADERS FOR THEIR PERSONAL GOOD AT THE EXPENSE OF GHANA'S ECONOMY AND MODERN INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE GOOD OF ALL GHANAIANS.

SELF-SEEKING MALE GHANAIAN POLITICIANS, KWAKU DUAH AND OTHER CHIEFS, AND SAM JONAH AND SOME GHANAIAN WOMEN LEAD THE CHARGE DESTROYING AND BANKRUPTING GHANA PLC..

The 2026 budget is a carefully laid out plan by the government to move this country forward. Contrary to the poor judgment by Davis Opoku, the budget is full of substance and must be commended. On the issue of slogans, it is the NPP administration that embarked on slogans during their regime. The NDC is not known to be thriving on slogans. The dwindling minority in Parliament have been held in a trance since their defeat in 2024. They have since resorted to making press conferences, embarking on meaningless demonstrations, criticising government for not concentrating on solving abominable problems the past administration had created. It is no surprise therefore to hear one of such group members describe the 2026 budget as full of slogans and without substance. Davis Opoku should be telling us why Ken Ofori-Attah is still at large.
