These are the students Mahama selected from his office when he was the Vice President to go and study Petroleum Engineering in UK. Of the 45 students sent to University of Dundee, all of them were from the three Northern Regions. Mahama is dividing the country with his tribal politics.

GO OUT THERE AND RECEIVE YOUR REWARD, ALL GHANAIANS. GO AND PAY THE PRICE FOR YOUR FOOLISHNESS. YOU DON'T GIVE A SECOND MANDATE TO AN INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, NO!! NOT AT ALL, THAT IS ABOMINATION IN DEMOCRACY, VERY SUICIDAL. HAD NDC MANAGED THE ECONOMY WELL, THESE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THE SITUATION. NDC HAS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES GHANA HAS EVER HAD. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED MORE LOANS THAN ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT IN OUR HISTORY, BUT THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS. GHANAIANS SHOULD HAVE ENJOYED SOME ECONOMIC PROGRESS AT THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY. THE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS SO CORRUPT. TO RESCUE THE SITUATION, THE POOR IS NOW BEING FORCED TO PAY. THIS IS INJUSTICE. THIS IS NOT THE GHANA KUFFOUR HANDED OVER TO NDC, HE EVEN ADDED FRESH CRUDE OIL WELLS. NPP TRANFORMED GHANA TO A MIDDLE INCOME ECONOMY WITH LIMITED RESOURCES BUT GOOD POLICIES. NDC IS WOEFULLY REVERSING THESE NPP ACHIEVEMENTS. GHANA'S CURRENT SITUATION IS VERY DISTURBING. WHEN THE HISTORY IS TOLD, IT WILL BE SAID THAT GHANAIANS WERE OFFERED FREE SECONDARY EDUCATION, IMPROVED UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL HOUSING FOR THE POOR AND AN EGALITARIAN SOCIETY BUT 50% SAID NO THANK YOU. THEY PREFERRED ECONOMIC "WOYOMISATION" , PHANTOM DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, PHILANDERERS FOR LEADERS, MACHIAVELLIAN DISRESPECTFUL CORRUPT LOUTS AND A VISIONLESS EVIL GOVERNMENT. I AM SO PROUD I VOTED FOR NANA AKUFFO ADDO.

This is completely about waste of money. How long shall we remain giving scholarship to this people and nothing in return? This are students after completing their education they turn back to the nation. When giving opportunity to work for the nation, they begin to corrupt. Is that what scholarship is about? Please we need no scholarship to students any more. Stop that quickly.

You just jalous the Ewes your life is to try to attack them, Kufor the formal evil president Try did so, he by fake means arest Tsatsu, but God will punish him and his party, they the akan Nanas and chiefs that drinks palm-wine from human scull will never be allowed to rule Ghana anymore, in London, the USA and other developed countries the Ewes work as Doctors, Engineers, Accountants more than the Akans but the Akans do more cleaning, toilets, fake immigragration solisitors like Nana Akufo-Addo the cocain snifer who whenever he dies childrens head will be cut off for thier sculls to be used by the Nanas and the Akan chiefs in drinking palm-wine.

Some of us come here and work all sort of jobs to pay our school fees. Some come here with scholarship. How are those students selected? Upon what basis are they selected.
We have seen this bias before. In the early nineties, some Ghanaians had admissions to University of Oslo.The government of Ghana, the then PNDC government bought air tickets for the Ewes among the students.Let us know the basis upon which these students are selected. Ghana has seen this 'krurudu' for long time when we had Ewe governments.The rest of us know the evil plans of P/NDC governments.

YES THE NDC AFTER TELLING THE WHOLE WORLD THAT ALL THE BAPTIST CHURCHES WHO PRAY IN TONGUES ARE CRAZY AND MAD AND THEY SHOULD NEVER BE TAKEN SERIOUS IN THE CHRISTAIN FAITH. NOW THE SAME NDC IS ASKING THE CRAZY CNOGREGANTS TO TRAVEL TO ISRAEL TO PRAY FOR THE PRESIDENT MAHAMA WHO IS BEEN HAUNTED BY HIS INVOLVEMENT IN THE ELECTORAL FRAUD. AS AT NOW THE STUDENTS IN THE UK HAVE NO MONEY TO LIVE ON, BUT THE NDC HAS THE AUDACITY TO DOLE OUT $2 MILLION TO SEND 200 PASTORS TO PRAY ON THE WAILING WALL BECAUSE MAHAMA IS READY TO RESIGN OF HIS POST? YES JESUS ANSWERS ALL , BECAUSE IDIOTS LIKE AFARI GYAN, ASIEDU NKESTIA AND MAHAMA GO TO COURT TO DEFEND THEIR MOTIVE OF STEALING ELECTIONS . KWAKU KYERETWIE

The entire idea of sending students on government sponsored scholarships abroad to study must be stopped. The process has outlived its usefulness. The time has now come when it is completely pointless. In this age of fast information processing and delivery, such a cumbersome waste is crass. We should be able to offer students world class education without necessarily incurring this old fashioned cost. Long distance learning has improved a lot. So why send students abroad?
Over the years this system has proven itself completely ineffective to justify the cost outlay. Simply end it and improve distance learning in Ghana.

Why in the world is tax payers money being used to fund expensive education in the UK. What really are the courses being undertaken that could not be done in Ghana.
