Why should people who can't even govern their neck of the woods be given charge of the country? Do we want to NORTHERNALIZE the whole country?

WHAT PEOPLE ARE NOT NOTICING IS THAT THESE AUDITS ARE FOR 2009,2010 AND 2011. SO THESE THINGS ARE NOT NEW. THE ROT OF TODAY ARE YET TO SURFACE. GHANA IS IN TROUBLE. ANOTHER SAD THING IS THAT MOST OF THE PEOPLE APPEARING ARE YOUNG. SO WE HAVE NO FUTURE. IT IS NO NEED BLAMING NORTHERNERS OR SOUTHERNERS. THE WHOLE COUNTRY IS ROTTEN FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. AND THE MAIN REASON IS THAT NO ONE GETS PUNISHED FOR MESSING UP AND MILKING THE SYSTEM.

Idiotic government with poor planning. Paying workers 3 million dollars and not giving them tools to do their work. Does it make sense to pay workers 2.9 million dollars a year with 33,000 dollars budget?

Ghanaians (including myself) have been so bashful and cowardly that we allowed the terrorist act of one man - Jerry Rawlings - to grow dangerous roots into an organization of looters. The NDC looting machine is more zippy now than ever before and more loaded than the Bank of Ghana.

Corruption smells so bad, and the NDC is a party that killed people because of corrution, and look at what they themselves are doing. The time will surly come!!!!!

At least we have one sensible man on this forum. all is not lost then. they should do research to seel, appeal for funds form industries by supporting industries. I raised this issue with the borad and the next ticket i had is a sack!. People just talk nonsense. Compare major institutions like CSR to other international research institutions. Which of them are funded by the government? All of them professor do nothing. if i were the government, funding stops now! same as atomic energy funding is closed now. i think this government is doing a great job in some areas by removing the burdened instutions but they should give more funding to business startups to grow the economy

Who do you think funds National Institute of Health? The US government and that is not the only research agency they fund. Sure, in most developed countries you get some individual contributions/endowments etc. for research, but not sure Ghanaians are there yet. What local industries are you talking about that would fund the research? Local industries can’t even expand to take in new employees much less to give money for research.

THE ABSENCE OF SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND TECHNICAL INNOVATION IN AFRICA HAS TURNED THE CONTINENT INTO THE POOREST AND THE DARKEST IN THE WORLD. NOBODY THINKS ABOUT AFRICA IN A SERIOUS WAY. AFRICA DOES NOT FEATURE IN THE ECONOMIC AND INDUSTRIAL CAULDRON OF THE WORLD. THE CONTINENT EXISTS TO PROVIDE THE INDUSTRIAL WORLD WITH THEIR RAW MATERIAL NEEDS FOR WHICH AFRICA IS PAID PEANUTS. THE GDP OF AFRICAN COUNTRIES IS A PITY. MOST COMPANIES IN THE INDUSTRIAL WORLD DO FAR BETTER THAN AFRICAN COUNTRIES. AFRICA IS A DEADBEAT. AFRICA IS NOT PART OF THE MODERN WORLD, WE ARE TOO POOR AND BACKWARD.

QUASHIEGAH WILL NOT HAVE BEEN ASKING THIS QUESTION IF HE WERE KNOWLEDGEABLE IN THE AREA HE HAS BEEN PUT.
