There is no smoke without fire , many times our chiefs for 30 pieces of silver have betrayed the interests of the people . they not only take money but also actively promote the most toxic of ideas against the welfare of the people . We have had an ayigbe/pepeni revolution and now the wind changes and the Akan revolution will come to be whether through the ballot box or by war it will come to pass . let these pepeni and ayigbe feel what its like to see their women stripped naked and whipped in the streets by our frisky boys , let them see what its like for both the innocent and guilty without discrimination be accused corruption and thrown in jail , let them see what its like to have their eminent men manhandled and tortured so that a few years later they all die of stroke , heart attaches and stress, let them see what is like to watch their sons and daughters have to travel the 7 seas just to find a better future as at home pepeni and ayigbe revolutionaries will steal their businesses or deny them the chance . yes we now not only polarize but radicalize since liberals like mills are killed and nana rejected ,it is time for fearless righteous Akans like ken agyapong , ursula and sir john to be flag bearers . ndc you just continue your corrupt ways but soon we will have you , your wives , children , girlfriends pay the a very dear price for your greed . keep on bribing these chiefs we have the family heads and clans on our side , long live the republic of Akan

Africa, why must you purposefully choose to lag behind? When will you be able to get rid of this plague that is hindering your development?

Let us know the corruption institutions in Ghana for us to go for the money. Forget about Africa and target your country Ghana, we need that money.

CORRUPTION COURTS IN GH
WE NEED CORRUPTION COURTS IN GH.
Maxwell Kofi Jumah who claims to have "concrete evidence" to support his allegation says, President Mahama is the architect behind the huge monies given to RLG and Zoomlion, both service providers to the Ghana Youth Employment and Entrepreneurial Agency (GYEEDA).
CORRUPTION IS SIPHONING WANTED REVENUE AWAY FROM THE COFFERS OF THE STATE. MONIES NEEDED TO PAY NURSES, DOCTORS, TEACHERS, INCREASE POLICE SALARIES, BUILD MORE SCHS, HOSPITALS, ROADS, RAILWAYS ETC ARE ALL BEEN CHANNELED ILLEGITIMATELY INTO THE POCKETS OF UNDESERVING PPL. THIS HARMING THE GROWTH OF THE NATION.
FOLKS, HOW CAN Salaries Of Ghanaian MPs BE THE 3rd Highest In The World? HIPC, 3RD WORLD NATION GHANA?...NO WAY!
REDUCE THE SALARIES OF THESE USELESS , OVERINFLATED EGOS N USE THE CASH TO DEVELOP OUR RAILWAYS, HIGHWAYS, MARKETS, STADIUMS, POLICE FORCE, SECURITY AGENCIES.
OH GH. TOO MUCH STRIFE, HUNGER. PPL ARE DISILLUSIONED. THEY DONT EVEN USE THEIR THINKING CAPS ANYMORE. THEY ACT AND BEHAVE LIKE ZOMBIES. ALL BECAUSE OF
CORRUPTION N GREED FROM OUR SO CALLED POT BELLIED LEADERS.
MOVIE: APOCALYPTO....."A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within."
This is a great quote, but extremely problematic for the movie that follows.
Durant's quote talks about corruption within being followed by external conquest, what we usually associate with the
decadence that preceded the fall of Rome, but that does not apply to what happened to the Maya.
Besides, even those Mesoamerican cultures that did not engage in human sacrifice were going to be immune to the myriad
diseases that Europeans brought to the Americas and which decimates entire peoples.
BILL GATES USING GMO FOODS, GENERIC DRUGS, CONDOMS, FLU AND TB SHOTS ON AFRICANS UNER THE GUISE OF HELPING THEM.
IN ACTUALITY, HE IS ENGINEERING AND FOSTERING A REDUCTION AND A SLOW REMOVAL OF OUR POPULATIONS, SLOWLY.
WE NEED A SYMPOSIUM TO ADDRESS WHY BRIBERY N CIRRUPTION STILL PERSISTS IN GH.
WHY DO PPL ENGAGE IN BRIBERY N CORRUPTION?
IS THE SALARY NOT ENUFF? FIX IT, PAY THESE WORKERS WELL
IS IT GREED? IF YOU FEEL YOUR SALARY IS NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU, GO N GET 2ND JOB. DONT HARASS PPL FOR BRIBES.
THIS IS UNLAWFUL AND A CRIME IN ITSELF. YOU DONT COME INTO PUBLIC OFFICE TO STEAL.
YOU MUST COME THERE TO PROTECT GH'S INTERESTS, NOT YOUR PERSONAL INTEREST.
WEN U BRING IN PPL ARE ARE NOT QUALIFIED FOR THESE CABINET JOBS, HAVE NO TRACK RECOD OR REPUTABLE PREVIOUS OCCUPATIONS. THEY WILL ROB THE STATE.
THOSE IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR WHO EMBEZZLE FUNDS MUST BE CHARGED WITH CORRUPTION BY THE POLICE/STATE AND SHOULD BE PROSECUTED IN THE COURTS.
MALAYSIA HAS A SIMILAR CONCEPT AND IT IS REAPING REWARDS. LOOK AT MALAYSIA'S POSITION ON THE GLOBAL CORRUPTION INDEX?
IF GH STARTS PROSECUTING CORRUPT PUBLIC SECTOR WORKERS. MORE FOREIGN INVESTORS WILL COME IN BCOS THEY CAN COUNT ON THE RULE OF LAW TO WORK N BE FAIR.
OUR PPL WILL HVE JOBS, TAXES WILL BE PAID, MORE DEVELOPMNT IN GH. ALL WILL BE HAPPY. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THESE STUPID ANIMALS WILL EVER LEARN.
ARREST THESE FOOLS, JAIL THEM UNTIL A HEAVY BOND/BAIL IS PAID. GATHER THE EVIDENCE AND TAKE THEM TO COURT. THE CHIEF JUSTICE MUST PUT THEIR FUCKING FOOT DOWN!
CONFISCATE THEIR ASSETS AND PAY OFF THESE MISMANAGED PROJECTS WITH THEIR PROCEEDS FROM THE PUBLIC AUCTION.
THEN JAIL AND PUBLISH THEIR NAMES IN THE MEDIA. NAME AND SHAME THEM. NKWASIAFOUR! NOT UNDER MY WATCH! AHA NA WO B3 DA!
the pressing immediate problems confronting the countRY GHANA ARE - GALAMSAY EVERYWHERE, no electricity, no water, rife in corruption, high incompetence levels, etc.
At the moment JOHN MAHAMA has NOT articulated any vision for the country and his governance. Ghanaians don't know what he stands for except his mere promises and lies.
For sustainable socio-economic development Ghana needs ACCOUNTABLE GOVERNANCE not mere promises without action as characterised BY MAHAMA'S "leadership".
Argentina’s president has announced increases of as much as 35 percent in cash handouts to the poor, students, pregnant women and retirees.
President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner said the programs also will reach nearly 700,000 more children, expanding the social safety net and encouraging consumer spending this election year. She said the total cost of the subsidies would grow $7.8 billion a year.
GH MUST FIND A SOLUTION TO THESE PRESSING ISSUES: high level corruption, CITIZEN IDENTIFICATION, insecurity, unemployment, LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE and infrastructure decay as the major problems confronting africa's development.
LOOK, YOU CAN BROADEN THE TAX BASE AS MUCH AS YOU WANT...UNREALIZED CAPITAL GAINS, GIFTS TO FAMILY/PERSONAL CHARITIES, TAXING THE RICH, ETC...YOU CAN CLOSE ALL THE LOOPHOLES ALL YOU WANT, BUT IF YOU DONT FIND A WAY TO DEAL WITH PUBLIC SECTOR CORRUPTION. U END UP PREACHING TO THE CHOIR.
REDUCE GOVT SPENDING. LOWER PUBLIC SECTOR SALARIES. MORE MANUFACTURING. CORRUPTION COURTS. MORE PRIVATE SECTOR ROBUST BUSINESSES. LOWER IMPORTS AND FREE TRADE.
WE NEED AN ATTITUDINAL CHANGE TO MAKE THE ECONOMY WORK IN GH.
PROGRESS IS A MODEL OF PRODUCTIVE DESTRUCTION. U NEED TO MAKE MISTAKES BEFORE YOU SUCCEED. THE GOVT SHOULD PULL BACK AND ALLOW THE ECONOMY TO PROGRESS. TOO MUCH GOVT INTERVENTION STIFLES PROGRESS.
06/17/2013: Just this morning, Montreal Mayor Michael Applebaum was arrested at his home by the city's anti-corruption police.
"Tens of thousands" were paid in bribes in return for permit approvals police say.
06/28/2013: A Brazilian congressman sentenced to 13 years in jail for corruption has given himself up after two days on the run. Natan Donadon is the first serving congressman to be jailed in Brazil since military rule came to an end in the 1980s.
Mr Donadon was convicted three years ago of siphoning off nearly $4m (£2.6m) from the State Assembly in Rondonia, in Brazil's Amazon region.
THE GH GOVT MUST CONTACT RAMON ANG, PRESIDENT OF SAN MIGUEL CORP IN THE PHILLIPINES. WE ARE SLEEPING IN GH, JOKER$!
HE CAN ADVICE AND HELP GH WITH AIRPORT INFRASTRUCTURE, OIL EXPLORATION, ROAD, RAIL PROJECTS. VERY INTELLIGENT MAN
"GHANA'S early hopes were dashed by exclusionary politics, poor economic management and corruption, which created and perpetuated political instability"...KOFI ANNAN
ARE WE GOING TO LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES AND FIX THEM OR ARE WE GOING TO BLINDLY LOOK AWAY N CONTINUE TO WALLOW IN MEDIOCRITY?
Most of the over $541 million revenue received from oil in 2012 was drained by Government due to poor planning and spending decisions rendering most of the projects incomplete.
Compared to its African neighbors like Malawi, Tanzania and the DRC, Ghana’s cost overruns are at least 18 percent higher.

Capitalism is a corrupt socioeconomic system because we all saw how U.S. and her NATO allies in order to support the cultivation of poppies in Afghanistan brought our the propaganda of Soviet Occupation in 1979. In 2002 to control the Venezuelan oil industry they made a video which depicted members of Hugo Chavez's party killing members of the opposition. The ruse of weapons of mass destruction was used to overthrow the government of Saddam Hussein and hang him and it was meant to steal the oil resources of Iraq. Ghaddafi was accused of killing his own people, thus it means that you can overthrow the state in other countries and impose your socioeconomic system on them because they are not your people so they can suffer.
It is on record that Dick Cheney who was the U.S. Secretary of State in 2003 company gain a lot of oil and arms contract in Iraq. The foreign accounts of Libya vanished into tin air as soon as NATO install her hounds in Tripoli.
We now have another ruse of the use of chemical weapons in Syria by NATO which is aimed at attacking Syria occupying her territory and use it to export crude oil from the Arabian Gulf to Europe, cut off the export of oil by Russia, attack Iran and occupy it and instal a puppet regime like that of the Shia there.
Which people and presidents are more corrupt than those who waged war to steal the resources of other people and sell opium to them. The capitalist socioeconomic system is corrupt and evil.

You are very ignorant, please use your brains to help Ghana. Stop these clichés and crap usually coming from our part of the world. Didn't Sadam Hussein kill the Kurds with chemical weapons? Aren't people dead in Syria by chemical weapons (no ones who did it)? You have not displayed any insight. Our officials and citizens are very corrupt and if we don't change our attitudes, I am afraid we will always beg and accuse those who are rich.
