This is the time for those who understand economics, to be bold and come out to give a fair assessment of John Mahama first year in govt.What is going is so Artificial bcoz it's not creating any job,bcoz our production has not gone up for firms to expand.Over reliance on gold is also dangerous, bcoz of its vulnerability at world Mkts.

Can President John Dramani Mahama and NDC tell the whole world how many jobs they have created for their own party Supporters in the 1st year?Inflation has gone down but prices of food remain the same,can they explain it? Is it not bcoz of the high number of the unemployed who have moved into trading?The figures cannot high even when you have impressive Economic Indicators.

The more the so-called opposition continue to disgrace themselves with such childish and immature criticism of the current govt, the more we - the thinking people of this country, can rest assured that they will not come anywhere close to govt, anytime soon to come and loot and pillage the resources that the Mahama govt has thankfully regenerated for the country.

Why are jobs not being created in the midst of so-called economic gains? It is all artificial economic gains.

Inflation does not mean reduction in prices but reduction in the rate at which prices are increasing. So prices won't go down, but they won't go up the way they use to be. Be schooled

The Mahama government administration does not have to tell you and other dimwits anything; make use of your eyes and you can see, use your ears and hear, use your brains to think and above all use your heart to love mother Ghana over your love for tribe and political party.

it's rather unfortunate that most Ghanaians are walking just as blind and ignorant as they're while good things are happening around them each day but they prefer the lies and delusions of the NPP. 90% of the jobs created under NADCo, Planting for food, YEA, 1D1F, and all the hastily created jobs under NPP were temporary and nothing more but a gimmick to buy votes to keep the NPP in power.

The fate of those jobs is the same as free SHS, school feeding and etc when they are not fully funded in yearly budgets. What the Mahama government is doing is laying the groundwork and structures that will sustain businesses and grow employment opportunities. Factories, new or existing ones, need sustained electricity to grow; they need roads to transport goods and services while workers need roads to go to and back from work. We need a stable cedi with a reasonable exchange rate for economic growth.

As all the infrastructures including buildings are ready by 2027 businesses will start hiring people for permanent jobs not the 3-year temporary jobs of NADCo, planting for food, YEA and all the temporary nonsense that does not help the people to establish better retirement with SSNIT. What Ghana need is realities not delusional promises from a party whose big men run out of the country because of the crimes they commit while in office.

Nii, Mahama doesn't need to tell the World how many jobs his Administration created in 2025. Nii, if you want to see what he has been able to achieve employment wise, just get out and care to see the number of people selling dog-chains, car wipers, etc. and ask yourself the question, where have all the guys selling dog-chains in the traffic and on the road-side pavements gone to? The answer would shock you, most of them have found better jobs during Mahama's First Term in office as opposed to Akuffo-Addo's administration when University graduates could not find employment and some had to resort to doing menial jobs like selling dog-chains to make a living. Maybe, you do not see and do not appreciate the hard work Mahama is doing to solve unemployment, those who have been lucky to find good jobs, do appreciate him and his efforts.

How do you say GoldBod is doing magic for the economy to be in good shape, while the same gold is causing huge environmental damage to the ppl and generation to come.The whole Stabilisation of the Cedi with gold is tainted bcoz of Blood Gold.How many jobs have been created in this first?Assuming the ppl had jobs to do,there will monies in their pockets for them to buy.Bcoz there is no money that is why demand for goods and services are low hence Low inflation.

Whether it is artificial or natural we will enjoy the Ghc 10 fuel prices, ghc10 to a dollar, single digit inflation n all the good things this government has started. Allow us to be the judge. You these old fools were proud and gave death ears to our concerns. We complained bitterly about e levy, covid levy n all that. You guys were the same person's who even protested for the removal of Ken of ofori attack when the economy was so hard. You think we are fools to forget so soon. No not anymore.

Does any Ghanaian seriously listen to the micro minority NPP? Their press conference sound like broken records but they refused to stop making mockery of themselves. Ghanaians don't need the 38.2% to speak for them. Drivers, market women, students, nurses, teachers, Abossey Okai spare part dealers, Kejetia and Asafo market traders, are all enjoying the positive economic climate in the country. Their so-called policies reduced the economy to junk status, yet they want to claim commendations for the improved economic conditions in the country. NPP never again. They have taught Ghanaians lessons in 'How not to govern a country'. Their Financial Minister is now a felon in the US for overstaying his visa.

For eight good years, NPP couldn't do what Mahama did in one year. Their failures are hunting them as they seem the most frustrated humans on the planet. These empty barrels think that by discrediting the government, as they did in 2016, Ghanaians will bring them back to power. Never again, my brethren, we witnessed arrogance, abject poverty, lies, deception, command, depletion of state coffers, wanton spending and so forth. We saw our country downgraded to junk state. We saw the pilfering that became an everyday activity. Now, what are these dwindling micro minority elements ranting about? Please, pay less attention to them. They can best be described as nation wreckers in the history of Ghana. They wrecked the nation, looted whatever is left and fled. Instead of arresting the remnants of these despicable evil human beings, we talk about due process and they continue to walk the streets and spew filth in their miserable lives. If at least they can't see, they can hear. We are sick and tired of these idiots.

Mr. Minority Leader, in your end-of-Year (2025) Parliamentary address, you stated that the public stampede that sadly occurred at the El-Wark Barracks was the result of NDC's Policy failure. I take issue with that characterization. Sir, if not that you are blinded by the idea to criticize Mahama and his Administration at all times no matter what, you would have concluded that what happened at the El-Wark was implementation failure and not Policy failure. After all, his Policy was to recruit people for the Military and that was exactly what the Military Officers were doing on that cataclysmic and eventful day. Unfortunately, as everyone saw it, it was the hiring process that got out of hand and resulted in some job seekers losing their lives. I say it again, what happened that day was not a policy failure, rather, it was implementation of a policy failure.
