Well, the gov't does not seem to have the intellect to appreciate the issues that are raised, so let's leave them to go on a wild goose chase.

Elsewhere in this world of ours just the failure of the government concerning the STX housing loan alone could bring down a government, but in Ghana about 5m voters hear 'Ide bee keke' then they vote for you, not even the dubious payment of 51 million ghana cedis to woyome could inform these 5m voters to make right choices.

It is for this reason that it will not be news if the $3 billion china loan doesn't come, about 5m ghanaian voters see nothing wrong with such unintelligent decisions and leadership

The answer to your frustration about 5m people unable to see what you see is, they don't trust your people(npp). They look on them as worse of the two parties. So just sit back and lick your loss.

IMANI's assertion is fair and practical, and I hope the government will be cautious and listen to honest and constructive advice from patriotic and genuine civil society groups.

Bright they know you were telling the truth but the Yebe Di Keke gov't headed by Dracula Mahama and idiots like Tony Aidoo and propagandists won't listen.

How can any serious country have people like Asiedu Nketia, Akokufunu Anyidoho, Momone Kwakye and Ofirijato Ablakwa near the centres of power?

We are doomed with these Yebe di keke idiots in charge. Slogan is progress for them. Dimwits.

Govt must listen to independent think tanks before entering into any long term contracts. We need proper due diligence and accountability in Ghana.

IMANI:

Please, when you have finished with
celebrating your 'VINDICATION' kindly come up with ALTERNATIVES or IDEAS to help the Ghana Government handle this $3 Billion Loan Saga.

To sit on the fence and TALK ABOUT WHAT WON'T WORK, without any mention of what to CONSIDER and how Govt should refine its approach in order to successfully access this Loan, IS NOT what we expect of THINK TANKS and what THINK TANKS are about.

Your Collective Superior and seasoned INTELLECT must be put to use. Your Criticisms must be accompanied by SUBSTANTIVE discussions of OPTIONS available to continue to merit your destination as a THINK TANK.

Please HELP Ghana Succeed.

This sounds like another STX deal.
The Goverment seems unable to grasp the fundementals of large commercial internationalloan deals.

Of course the Chinese Bankers want watertight warranties as to how the money is going to be used, they want tangible outcomes from their loan - after all the money is being lent by a Bank - it is not a handout from a charity.
The failed STX deal under Mahama hardly inspires confidence in this Goverment's ability to deliver.

I thought last year we were told that the China Development Bank has disbursed $225mln to the Ghana Gas Company? IMANI check and confirm.

The Chinese Bank officals when meet with Mahama on the US$3billion loan realise that Mahama is intellectual deficit and do not understand what loan he is signing.Imagine borrowing US$3billion and the bank force you to paying interest and insurance up front before get the loan.Because of the stupidity of Mahama Ghana has loss oil money through collateralization of the oil for this this US$3billion.The Chinese knew that it is fools who abandon their own contractors and give Chinese contractors contracts and hire the same contractors the government despise to do the project.
