    Our laziness has started. In less than 2 months after that is another holiday( 6th March). Constitution day, independence day, republic day and many more. What's wrong with us?

  • Frank Agyena-Karikari 2 months ago

    In Uncle Sam’s place workers can take declared holidays but not all of the ...

  • Kwaku Tee 2 months ago

    Populism is mainly behind some of these stupid decisions. Millions if Ghanaians are unemployed,yet the private sector which is trying to shoulder this problem is being overburdened with these unnecessary holidays.

    How many ppl has the NDC Govt employed in the past 12mths in power?How can a jobless person be given a holiday? Probably only President John Mahama can answer these questions.

  • Nii 2 months ago

    What has Ghana achieved thru Multiparty Democracy in the past 33yrs? Only a few including the Mahama family have been enriched thru this Democracy thing.The masses have become poorer since 1992.

  • Nyuimedi 2 months ago

    Too many holidays. Start hitting the ground. No time to waste

  • Atta Kay 2 months ago

    The truth of the matter is Democracy is not working in Ghana, so there4 we don't need to beat more drums to celebrate its achievement. NDC Govt is provoking the masses.What is holiday to the Unemployed?

    Which productivity did I read about, the theoretical one which we assume we are doing or the practical which improves the economy?
