Why is NDC refusing to accept the fact that they took over the assets and liabilities of the nation when they won power? Hon Mills could have done this nation some good if he had continue to say that he will will work with sector Ministers to complete the Pawlugu project. NDC should show some magnanimity; the blame game is becoming too much.

33yrs in our 4th Republic and we cannot grow our own tomatoes and onions. I'm told bcoz of the Stabilisation of the value of the Cedi, livestock farmers are also importing maize from Argentina. We also rely on ice countries like Russia & Ukraine for our wheat & sunflower oil.What a shame, I don't think this country even need a President.

I always say that Kutu Acheampong was just killed for nothing. How many of us remember OPERATION FEED YOURSELF? I remember that during that period, Ghana exported food products to our neighbor countries. People, including my parents had backyard gardens where people planted vegetables for domestic use and for local markets. Not only vegetables were cultivated farm products including Plantains, Yams, Maize, Cassava, Soybean, Sorghum and every food Ghanaians ate. Yet the evil and cruel and useless Boakye Djan who wielded too much Power forced Rawlings under Gunpoint to sign his Death Warrant. Was that not just evil and extremely cruel. Was Kutu more corrupt than Rawlings, Boakye Djan and their Anlo Ewe Murderous and Torturous Ewes? Anlo Ewes are now not liked in most places in Ghana so they try to change their identities and claim to be Guans, Ada, And Kronos but this doesn’t hold because of the High accent of Anlo Ewes in speaking many languages, even including the English language.
Rawlings spelled the doom on Anlo Ewe people because his murderous deeds make them less acceptable in any business. My father had some Ewe assistants and trusted them very well. He could even trust them with money. Anlo Ewes people are very hardworking and worked at every community in Ghana. Yes, my best and likeable Teachers were Anlo Ewes. I remember the Agbolosoo, Pecku, and Amenume. Students who were Akans, especially Asante people liked Anlo Ewe Teachers and Professors at the University. They never went after married men like I.K Ptah, Tony Aidoo and the other useless and senseless University Professors.
Rawlings has really damaged the future of Anlo Ewes in Ghana’s Democracy. No Political Party will ever choose any Anlo Ewes as a Political Party leader or the Vice Presidential Candidate. Sorry, Anlo Ewes are done in Ghana Politics in the now or foreseeable future. Even they are now discriminated against in higher positions in the Civil and Public sectors. Blame Rawlings for that.
Why was General Akuffo killed? What were his acquisitions except his house at Akropong? He never built or had any houses in Accra and the Western World like Asiedu Nketsia who has a magnificent mansion at Toronto, Canada. Kutu was just killed for hatred, possibly because he was an Asante just like Afrifa. The AFRC was just cruel and evil.

When Rawlings staged his coup his sole purpose was to kill Ashanti business and make Ewes the dominant tribe in Ghana. He succeeded. But the problem is that Ashantis are genuine business men, while the Ewe businessmen only know how to do kuluulu. They just feed on government contracts and die as soon as their party is out of power. This is why Ghana is not growing, because they have political and economic power but cannot use it to establish genuine businesses like Siaw's TATA, Boakye Mattress, Appea Menka's Apino, International Tobacco and all the other Ashanti businesses Rawlings came purposely to kill and destroy. After all these years how many genuine Ewe business have replaced them?

So, you this EPILEPTIC LITTLE BOY living in a man's body - @Frank Agyena-KWASIA-KWASIA. Whenever you are told that those beatings you received from Rawlings's Abongo Boys has affected your epileptic brains, you don't want to accept. If I were you, and I know the mental trauma that I have gone through during my young formative years, I would take a very good hint and pause to see whether I am exhibiting any signs of madness as I am being told. But that is exactly your case, because Rawlings has successfully traumatized you so much that you have become obsessed with his name, even when the man is dead and gone for many years now. Otherwise, how could a normal human being of over 60 years... (yes, you are unbelievably 60 years plus), be writing such stupid, meaningless & repetitive comments everyday, and think that you have written something sensible..??? You are so STUPID that you always even forget that Akuffo Addo was touted & white-washed as "A HUMAN RIGHTS ADVOCATE" when he was coming. Yet it was under his democratic governance when we saw over EIGHT (8) full-blooded Ghanaians being coldly & brutally murdered by that 2-feet, pocket-sized, semi-formed Pygmy, from the Kyebi forest. And that very same murderous monster is on record to have pushed down his pregnant wife from a flight of stairs which resulted in her untimely death. How can you be so senseless & brain-dead, when the expectation is that, you'll be maturing gracefully as you enter your golden years. Rather unfortunately, your brains have become terribly mouldy just like some weeks-old ekurase konkonte being dried in the sun. Oh, @Frank-Agyena Kwaseato bellembeh, when at all will you grow up...????

@Nana - So what did you do with your entire eight (8) years as a serious NPP government? All we saw during your time was your stupid criminal -- Bryan Acheampong, scheming violently to come and steal our posh state hotels. The $12 million dollars they also took to start the Pwalugu Dam to help our farmers was also stolen by your NPP wild sharks. So why should any Ghanaian with a functioning brain even allow you criminals to come and stand in front of them to campaign for political power again in this country. .???? You will surely stay in opposition for 42 years before we'll open the doors for a new generation of human beings to spring out of any leftovers that you may have from your party. That is the fact you criminals have to know today. As for Bawumia, his Jihadist allies in Northern Burkina Faso can hire him as their cultural entertainer. He will show them how to dance "Sisi Fiaaa".

Prevention is better than cure. The gargantuan amount of money that was sourced as a loan to rebuild and to establish a modern technique of IRRIGATION to produce huge quantities of Tomatoes which was a loud propaganda, to feed the Pwalugu factory vanished into tin air.
This was a project to take off sooner with Dr Bawumia apparently pushing hard for it but nobody knows what happened then suddenly and quickly that propaganda and rhetoric soon became quiet.
If this project had taken off realistically and practically
there would have been plenty tomatoes produced in that part of our country to meet our domestic consumption needs and therefore there would not have been the need for our traders having to travel that far into the hinterland and remotest part of Burkina Faso to meet this kind of heinous calamity and worse of all their untimely demise.
Meanwhile the very irresponsible and poor governance of the NPP that brought us this far endangering the lives of our traders and citizens are the same people in Parliament today shouting so loud with rhetoric blaming the NDC government.
Politics of speaking from both sides of the lips and mouth is dangerous besides it will not send us any where interms of progress and development.
What kind of hypocrisy is this.
Honourable Attah Mills you hit the nail correctly at the right place.
As politicians we need to be practical, clean, ethical and honest in our politics.

Why can't the ndc construct the dam. Do you think the so called 12 million dollars they are shouting about can built a multi purpose irrigation dam. They should grow out of this blame game. It is becoming nauseating.

The SAADA monies that got lost during President Mahama's 1st Term could have been used to fix Pwalugu Dam. He now wants to construct Accra to Kumasi Highway. No need to guess where that money will go.
