That is the problem in Ghana. We all know NPP squandered money when they were in power, and what NDC is doing same, but we are talking about Social interventions. Both parties came and looted the Nations coffers, but which party after looting, brought programs that helped the masses a bit a way?

Before the election 2012, I was in Ghana and most of my friends and family members in NDC argued that The NHIS is fully in operational, just because they were supporting the party blindly. Just last 3 weeks one of them phoned me to ask me for 500 GHC to take his wife to the hospital for a major operation. I asked why is it so high because I know the NHIS is fully in operational. He then confessed and said, "Bro, Mahama has really destroyed that nice program". I was very suprised, because this is the same guy that was defending the Mahama administration, saying they have uplifted every program Kuffour started.

That is Africa. Untill we stop supporting our various parties blindly, they will always take us for a ride. Now even Abeku Santana who was blwong his horns for Mhama, when I was in Ghana, goes on air today to say that the Mahama administration has lost focus. What a foolish black mind?. Ghana will always go to the bin, until we the masses begin to stand against our own parties when things go bad, being NDC; NPP, NDP, CPP, PPP ect in power. Over to you all Ghanaians.

Typical of the sort of criticisms politicians and others make.Long on assertions without substance.We want to be properly informed.On SFP he should be telling us how much was spent then and now,how many children accessed the programme then and now. On transport we would like to know how many buses were on the road then and now,how many routes covered then and now etc. The same goes for the other areas he had criticised.Bland criticism is easy. We need quality .

People in authority should read a lot to know the appropriate words and phrases to use in national papers. Improper use of words by individuals shows how shallow their interlectuals are!!!! Sorry, but,that is true!!

Omari Wadie, why are you so embitered by this defeat of your party? Is this the last election in this country? Why, there are more elections to come. Just tell your people, including you, to change your attitude and Ghanaians may consider voting you to power and stop this hatred. It will not do you any good. Because of this one defeat you have been trying all that you could to bring the Mahama-led administration into disrepute by even forging a picture on the internet, all to no avail. Stop it, it will not work.

If this Omari Wadie is the best the NPP can produce then we are in for a bumpy and long ride to hell in Ghana. Mr. Wadie is a non thinking party tool who may have studied his heart out when at school but is lacking in common sense, lacking in basic economics principles and or understanding of money management. There is no civilized Western nation that has survived without proper management and accounting of revenues of the state. And in most of those civilized nations, every working living (and sometimes the dead) person pays taxes. That is how prosperous nations are able to pay civil servants, sustain government funded projects. The last time I read on UK and USA, they do not go out begging for money they knew they could not pay to fund new government give away programs just to buy votes.
Events that has and continues to happen across Western European countries who acted just like Kufour, from Italy, Greece, to Spain and others does show that making people feel good on borrowed money from other wealthy and well managed nations will eventually catch up to the nation. Kufour knew he had only 8 years and he screwed Ghana royally; it is future governments who will have to deal with his bankrupt ideas.
Kufour is a savior to most clowns in Ghana because he helped people steal and mismanage Ghana's money while they hauled out every document that could be used by future governments to track their thievery. J.J. Rawlings, Atta Mills and the fools in the NDC have not been cleaver thieves but simple-minded street thugs and that is why they are always caught holding the bag. But if Mr. Wadie in his minimal intellect thinks Ghana under Kufour’s NPP was wonderful he should ask Kufour and or anyone who served in that administration to provide every document pertaining to transactions conducted in the name of Ghana for all to see. You and others are too idiotic to be officers of any political party; you are more fit to be a dog catcher that managing humans.

It is this nonentity again. I believe we are still uncovering the "disgrace and embarrassment" of the Kufuour administration with all the continuing revelations about how they did their business including the disposal of state assets. I am yet to hear any of the critics of the current government condemn what went on with e.g. the sale of the Drill Ship? When will people like Wadie see that as a disgrace and an embarrassment?

None of the comments I've read with regard to this article has argued any point coherently,all I can see is insults from every corner,If this is the way Ghanaians react to political news whether negative or positive, how the hell do we expect from a government who being in power for 5 years still don't seem to know how to govern.I we keep blaming the previous Governments,how do we move forward. We need to check our own mentality and patriotism because it seems we are a big part of the problem.

i never said that, What I mean is the comment I have read here are full of insults and no coherent argument for or against,we can't keep looking back but rather look forward we can't keep blaming what our fore fathers did. My mentality is positive which I haven't seen in most of the comments, I was not responding to you in particular but i guess my comment replied to the last comment I read which is rather unfortunate because it was meant for all.I have no allegiance to any political party what so ever I just find it interesting and frightening at the same time that politics in Ghana is all about insults and not the way forward.If you find that a problem then so be it.

Isn't it refreshing? Thank God "Tani" is the PRESIDENT of Ghana. Why don't you simply denounce your citizenship and seek one somewhere else? I f you happen to be living in another country (even if you have acquired their citizenship) can you please tell us what your rights are there and whether you can write this nonsense on any media about the head of government or leaders in that country?

I am yet to see the so-called Ghanaians who write crap on Ghana social media about their government and the president even shout to make their voice heard in the countries in which they live outside!!! On the other hand, those of us who stand up for Ghana and our government (irrespective of party) happen to serve on boards and important committees in those same countries.

Why don't you poorly educated tribally bigoted lot find some other planet to create for yourself so that you can exclude the rest of us from even venturing there. After all countries like the United Kingdom and others in Europe are now doing that.

You fool yourself as living in, or being "citizens" of other countries in Europe and elsewhere, where you are treated as second class citizens, yet the ONLY country in which you have full rights and can 'stretch your legs' anywhere and do whatever you want (including writing this nonsense) is Ghana, your motherland and you think it belongs more to you than others.

And as for "Tani" he is not fit to rule over you and not fit to run the country!!! You are not fit to be Ghanaian either and you better get it into your 'coconut' that "Tani" has been duly and properly elected to lead the government of the country whether you like it or not.

Tell all your bigoted friends that it is real and if you don't like it, you better pack your bag and leave (you and your whole village). Nkwasea sem akwakwa!!!.
