These con men in power. The technical committee was just to con agigated workers and buy time to probably buy the leadership of the workers.

Why can,t Mahama offset some of the bills of these energy companies with the numerous loans he has been collecting to share among his cohorts and spare the ordinary Ghanaian his/her life? Oooh! Maaaaaaaahama!!

Please, you sound somehow not correct with your point. How do you expect the state to take loans for what? Loans meant for development projects.

Dr. Bawumia sasid this before the elections to the people of this country, that Mahama and his NDC Government has confused our national
economy, when he said this what did we hear from NDC stupid propagandists,
hopeless and senseless Dramani Mahama,
"OKRONFUO TAKYIAMOAH" Asiedu-Nketia,
Koku Anyidoho the NDC monkey, idiot Yamoah Ponkor and all NDC monkey supporters?

Do you all remeber all such an insults
rained on this Learnerd and highly credible Politician and economists by
all NDC violent supporters, they even
went to such an extend to assasinate
such a credible Ghanaian citizen because he has spoken the truth to
the majority people of this nation,
today Mahama as his usual deceitful,
dishonesty, lies, thievery activities
is saying there are some challenges in
the economy, this time Mahama's outburst that "Ghana's economy is healthy stability" has now changed to
there are some challenges in the economy.

Fellow country men and women, if someone still supports this NDC and
that idiot Mahama and his fellow corrupt NDC thieves at this present
moment we are all suffering, dying,
living very poorly, truth has lost under NDC administration, rape is now
the highest level under NDC, children
under 7 years has turned their face
to practice prostitution, then we can
say Ghana will never be seen as a
comfortable nation in Africa again.

It is not only Energy sector that needs money to rehabitate or revive it
but the entire nation is now a hopeless sovereinty.

Hello Peace, 2016 will come soon alright but please bear in mind that since independence, the pressure for such hardship has always come from outside the country. Please ask Albert Kan Dapaah (energy minister at the time) what one IMF official told him to do. He was asked to switch off lights at the Korle Bu hospital, and that a few deaths of the patients will automatically qualify Ghana for an IMF loan. If this is not satanic, then what else can this be? Kan Dapaah as an individual did not do it, but what about the greedy ones? They could have done worse. Peace I wish I could reveal more of these evil stuff to you.

Kobla Zego, you are one of the few who has not played politics with this issue. Well done. However, as I stated earlier, we should have embarked on a demo to demand payment of utilities from our politicians some 30 years ago. Instead we play politics to their satisfaction. Kobla, please go and report to ECG that a member of the opposition is tapping free electricity. You will be surprised to hear from a party supporter from ECG that after all the members of the ruling party are also enjoying free electricity. So you see what politics is doing to this country. If we were to demand accountability from both parties, this country will move forward.

Dr Abbey can afford to create silly excuses for Mahama under the fraudulent, mystical-sounding name of "technical report."

Let's figure out the lifestyle enjoyed by Abbey and others of his ilk. Most likely he has a chauffeured car with petrol allowance all provided by the government. He also, more likely than not, has a government-provided residence at the University of Ghana. Next his monthly salary which is paid on time but we won't even go there for fear of the high amount raising our blood pressure. We will also not list the overseas conferences with all kinds of allowances attended by the learned doctor. Nor will we touch on the various meetings with catered food and drinks. His benefits - end of service, Kufuor-style ex-gratia and then his pension proper - we'll leave all these in the dark. For the work of the "technical committee", how much is he and his colleagues getting in allowances, catered food and transportation allowance? What possibly can Dr Abbey and his "konomtea" members ever know about the life of the average Ghanaian with all this state-provided high class "welfare" for the elites? And what, we should also ask, is the benefit of the oil extraction to the people of this country?

If you can buy and maintain your mobile, why do you expect electricity to be free? For these services to be functional and qualitative, they must charge at going rates. The difference here is that the government should not stomach corruption in any shape or form so as to be respected and trusted. I said a year ago that there was going to be mass action. Lo and behold it is happening because it was always going to happen. Now the solution is none but a committed, dedicated and heartfelt action against corruption. This is Mahama's job to accomplish and he will need to be brutishly uncompromising to succeed.

NO CONDITION IS PERMANENT! FOOL!!

THE OUTRAGEOUSLY HIGH UTILITY TARIFFS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CASH INJECTION FOR EFFICIENT ENERGY SUPPLY.

HISTORICALLY, ALL THE MANAGERS OF GHANA'S STATE INSTITUTIONS ARE KNOWN TO BE LAZY, VISIONLESS, CORRUPT, USELESS AND THE MOST INEFFICIENT ON THE GLOBE.

THAT'S WHY ALL OF NKRUMAH'S GHANA'S STATE INSTITUTIONS HAVE ALL CRUMBLED BEFORE OUR OWN EYES.

GHANAIAN "LEADERS" ARE TWERPS AND TOTALLY USELESS!! THEY JUST DO NOT HAVE THE COMMONSENSE TO MANAGE ANYTHING COST-EFFECTIVELY.

I totally disagree with you senseless views, whether you in motherland Ghana or in the region somewhere. Also whether you are still think from your little ghotto world in a little village somewhere in Ghana where you are deprived of the basic necessities of life. Ghanaians in whiteman's land have helped Ghana's economy more than Ghanaians working in Ghana themselves. As matter of fact, those Ghanaians are nothing more or less slaves than others in Ghana. Simply put, you think Ghana is an independent nation, please think again. Who controls Ghana and Africa as whole? Please find out.What ever job they do, these Ghanaians Ghanaians work in honest jobs and get honest pay instead of going to loot or stealing. So you think you live in Ghana and probably you have no job in a system where everyone tries to steal from the same system, right? This is why you think someone in whiteman's land is been slaved. FYI: l want you to acknowledge whiteman cleaners contribution to Ghana and thank your so-called Ghanaian slaves that they have still made things possible for Tema port to keep running. Then to see all government officials , all custom officers and their labourers alike all happy with ballooning bellies. This is all from the importation duties levied on Ghanaian's imports from the diaspora. Thanks to these Ghanaians again whom you consider as whiteman's slaves and cleaners in the whiteman's land the year round remittance of "the hot foreign exchange" currencies being pumped into Ghana's economy. Without the revenues from the importations coming from these slaves Ghana would have been parallized or nowhere by now. How many foreigners do you think bring their imported goods to the Tema harbour? Do you know how much those Ghanaians' you call cleaners and slaves remit to Ghana to help the economy on a daily basis? You will be better of to be in the whiteman's land and to become slave like others than to be in Ghana with hopeless life. I think you made idiot of yourself but no anyone. Next time think twice before you say anything about Ghanaians in whiteman's land.

That is how corruption starts. Not from your doorstep, but from your hands!

It is so stupid to state that tariff reduction in the energy charges section is not an option. This is according the technical committee set up by the presidency. Now if Ghana's energy sector is in a dire state of needing fix then why is that for all those years until now successive Ghanaian governments have being mis-spending the limited national revenues(money)on luxurious projects as if Ghana were a rich nation? Very extravagant spending on huge but low priority governments projects? Also huge and unnecessary public sector workforce which costs millions of cedis in salaries and wages but low productive rate? Ghana as a small country and not rich, can employ over 600,000 staffs in the public sector as compared to a nation like UK with higher populations than Ghana, also much developed and richer only employs around 300,000 of its
citizens in the public sector? Do Ghanaian leaders have brains to think? Are they also aware that any successful private sector organization in the world is always consecutive about the cost of its labour force and its total operational and overhead costs? Also by comparison, Ghana being an under-developed or developing nation also has a size of MPs larger than that of most advanced countries with larger populations than Ghana's? The annual salaries paid for those unwanted number of MPs in Ghana can even fix the energy sector problem or help fix the educational system and the inefficient health sector. Again, mismanagement of national revenues and all the loans that are constantly being borrowed from external lenders could have been used wisely to bring to better level and efficient energy at a reasonable cost for the citizens if those monies are not used to pay for wrongful debts and also not being stolen by the politicians. The poor and the vulnerable Ghanaian citizens are not to be punished or made as scapegoats for the corrupted system. Where can the poor masses get money in the mix of widespread unemployment to pay for the politician's mistakes? I definitely think Ghana with its present predicaments, should not have more than 50 MPs to run the affairs of parliament instead of the 275 MPs or so at the moment. Ghana also should not have more than 10 cabinet ministers to run the government at any given time. This will safe money for the ailing economy and it will help maintain other services where the money is needed most. Let Ghana considers the term called "KISS".

Koo Nimo, I share your pain and worry. Since when have we embarked on a demo to tell the politicians to pay their utility bills themselves. We have sat down and played politics and tribalism to their satisfaction. It will surprise you that if the NPP were to be in power and such a demo is organised, an Ashanti or Akyem will boycott the demo. Let's try it now and you will see Ewes and some Gas and some Northerners asking us what is our problem if the state is taking care of their utilities. Koo, you see we have a problem?

Kwame,it is common knowledge that the party in power will automatically appoint party members. What you should also know is that even if a member of the NPP is put there, he/she will compromise his/her position. After all it is all about the money. It will surprise you that this NPP member will come out with all sorts of reasons why the increase should be justified. We should stop playing politics for them to know that we can read in between the lines, then they will wake up. I have never voted because I sit with them during our old boys meetings and what I see and hear, I cannot say it here. The two NDC/NPP old boys get confused whenever they see me. Cheers.

Oh, yeah, the reduction in utility prizes cannot be an option for the country. Okay, alright, beware of the truth which is, in order to improve or to develop the utility sector, water supply, roads, health and of course school construction.
The generating of funds must be geared to wards the poliices of the country, and not depending upon IMF assistance whatsoever. The people in the government must be prepared to let or for go without their SUV and 4x4s and yes, bound almost every government official using state funds to acquiring such cars, no usage government cars on weekends, only to be considered if only he or she duty or assignment, etc. The above mentioned suggestion must be entrusted to the Ghana's well trained Armed Forces, the truth is that the officers are capable of solving problems and defending the country at same time.
The fact is that they are civilians first, having democratic right to vote, therefore, these present situation calls for assistance of the defending officers to enforce and to control the policies of the Nation. As whole wide world respected Ghana Armed forces and being the best peacekeepers, all must agreed to pave the way for them to contribute not to take over.
Please, allowed the understanding and love to govern the future development of the country.
To engaged and participation of the men in uniform should be good step for word.

In dire straights huh? Whose fault is that? Why, the owners of the utilities, which is the government. So, the governments answer is, push the problem and expense onto the public. It is not the cost of utilities that is the problem it is the outrageous percent of increase all at once. To put this onto the economy all at one time is nothing but telling the public to go to hell. This general with his holy than thou attitude is typical of a politician who considers themselves above the private sector.
