    Stupidity of the highers order. If Northerners were allowed to run Ghana for ten years this country would have been like Dubai. Lack of opportunities make them look inferior in your eyes

    It seems that you are not abreast with time. There isn’t anything like northern scholarship in Ghana now. We all now pay school fees please. Check with the school and university

    There were many of such kids in the then upper region but many made it. They were humble beginnings. Well done AG.

    He has chosen the right profession- politics. By 2028 he would have more money than people who went to class one at the age of four.

    You are not alone. Majority of Ghanaians (I will guess 80%) are born into abject poverty. That is why we want those who have stolen our money (and making us poor) to be prosecuted, jailed and the stolen money retrieved. So pl ...
