The government MUST pare down expenditure - dissolve/streamline some organizations, eliminate irrelevant programs and the respective lecturers from the universities, get rid i.e. fire some public servants, remove subsidies, revamp Internal Revenue and fire the corrupt officers (can be done by establishing an independent audit unit to monitor activities IRS), cut or eliminate some allowances of public officers, including MPs and ministers, monitor or scrutinize operations of CEPS, SERIOUSLY fight corruption; these just a few of my suggestions.

If he had stayed and offered advice, you same ZoRRo baby with sharp teeth would have labled him too known, NPP supporter or a nation wrecker. Well unfortunately, the little we have done over the past five years is pathetic to say the least. We have succeeded in reversing the little gains we made over the years prior ro 2008 because Ghanaians have taken entrenched positions along political lines. No matter how bad our party performs, we turn a blind eye and praise them. The crap and destruction continues and we all dey inside.
You do not have to be a rocket scientist to see there will not be any progress in this country for the next 3 years. This administration has not got the men to move this country forward and that is a fact. They talk too much and do very little.

Before the recent gone General Election which Mahama lost, but bribed
evil Afari Djan to declare him the winner, said to the Ghanaian People that NDC puppet adminisdtration, has
completely squandered every pesewa in the Government kitty and the cedis has
no weight to face heavy foreign monetary preasure - Ghana's economy
has been thrown into a total confusion.
NDC so-called politicians, because of
their own selfish interest, jumped
on the neck of Dr. Bawumia insulted him, called him names, claimed that
he Dr. Bawumia has no economical clue.
Mahama came to the public domain, asserted, Ghana's economy is very healthy and stable and Bekoe Arthur
his vice was in the driving seat to maintain such economical stability to the full, meanwhile this Bekoe Arthur
was in Charge Bank of Ghana when we saw that the weight of Ghana's cedis
as against the foreign funds is like a
paper if not even a toilet roll, from
where can this Arthur make Ghana's
economical condition healthy and stable, fellow country men and women.
The events that came to the public domain from Mahama was "YEA WE NNAM NO
AKA DOMPE" who and who "NA AWE NNAM NO?", the statement from Mahama was,
Single Spine has over shadowed the
economical stability of our nation,
thirdly, Mahama with his incompetency
and his total deceitful, corrupt and his total thievery activity against the majority of Tax Payers, when cannot pay the workers claimed Ghana's
economy is facing some challenges,
fellow country men and women, how can
we rely and trust a person like corrupt Dramani Mahama, whom because
of his own neglegence, incompetency,
thievely, corruption, lies, deceit,
dishonesty, hopelessness has thrown
Ghana into State of anarchy?
Today even soldiers whom with their might, health and dedicated atmosphere
has fought for this nation, when went
on retirement cannot be paid of their
pension allowances, fellow country men
and women Dramani Mahama, the work load as President of this nation is
too much of a burden for him and his
NDC crooks, they must be fucked off
and give way to the most credible, dynamic and professionally intelligent
politician who was robbed during the
election to come and save our nation and the people of this country, as we
Ghanaian people are suffering.

The Mahama Government inherited the "huge structural deficit problem" from the Mills Administration in which Mahama was Head of the Economic Management Team. In other words, Mahama inherited the "huge structural deficit problem" from himself. He was the Chief Advocate of the crazy borrowing and over-expenditure phenomenon that has brought to its knees today. He used State money and resources to finance his campaign and in the process ate all the meat on the national economy, leaving only the bones for ordinary Ghanaians. Now he is taxing, taxing and taxing Ghanaians to make up for his profligate expenditure.

You are right - Mahama inherited a structural deficit of HIS own making.
However, there is no truth to your statement that "He used State money and resources to finance his campaign" as the reason for Ghana going broke. The NDC had other corrupt resources such as the Woyome money. Whatever amount they spent on the campaign pales in comparison to what they have looted and deposited in overseas accounts and in material acquisition in Ghana (mansions, luxury cars etc).

Its all to kick start higher growth and if growth picks up it pays for past deficits and the debts.Thats econ 101 for ya.

Awudu,truth is something neither you or your propagandist party can never hide. Your party paraded all around the globe just before the elections about how unprecedented Ghana's economy was. At home, lead by Fiifi Quartey, your party conducted mass rallies rolling out a green book about their economic achievements. Then immediately after elections, John Mahama and your party reversed the tune. "Only the bones are left". And people like Awudu are now looking for scapegoats? Ghanaians are wiser the the "Awudus". When Mills/Mahama regime within a span of 5 years can run the nations acrued deficit to over 40 billion Ghana Cedis, when the combined deficit of all previous governments post independence totaled less than 9 billion Ghana Cedis!

Yes, I said that Northerners are poor administrators. Why? Liman and Mahama presidency are a testament to that. When Liman became president, his administration came under intense and unstoppable corruption which brought JJ to the throne and Mahama is walking the same route like Liman. This should send a clear signal that not everybody can be president. Corruption under this government is unprecedented. It is the worse government in our history but there are those who favors it as long as the president is not an AKAN, it is okay because some wish the presidency should rotate just to tell all and sundry that we are moving in the right direction.
Ghana is at a cross road and she needs citizen with the brains and intellect to lead and not just anybody.
Since Mills/Mahama government took over, they have borrowed over 40 billion dollars and the question is what have they done with the money?
Ghana is yawing though not thirsty, meaning she is under "intense pressure" with her blood pressure hovering over 200/170.
Ghana is broke because those leading her are basically, clueless about governing and they are behaving like drunken sailors who just came ashore from a year at sea.

Pelicles, I agree with you that Liman was ineffective and allowed the old CPP hands to run wild with Corruption, offering JJ a more plausible excuse to strike back than what some of us contemplated as JJ's real reason for the Coup. (Let this "excuse" stay off our discussion now till some other time).
But I take exception to your stereotyping that Northerners are incompetent Managers. The very best and most effective Managers I have ever encountered in my 50 plus years of life include many Northerners.
You have to consider the political climate under which we gave Mandate to both Liman and Mahama. If the Ethnic factor is anything that impinges on the performance of these Presidents, it could be largely the fault of the dominant groups in the Parties that chose these two Citizens to lead. Liman crumbled under the hefty weight of his Southern CPP stalwarts like Krobo Edusei. They made him feel unduly indebted to them that he possibly was afraid to confront them. I remember a particular case in Ashanti Region where Krobo Edusei was reported to have been in conflict with the then Ashanti Regional Commissioner, Mr. Kankam, over distribution of Sugar around the Region. Krobo, allegedly, sought for total control to distribute the commodity that was then in short supply all over the Country. Liman could not help to keep Krobo off. Other Administrative heads are those who backed Kankam to fight back for fairer distribution to all citizens. Who are influencing Mahama, now?
We need Mahama to exhibit the two most widely acknowledged positive stereotypical attributes of Northerners, which are integrity and exactitude, if we were to risk stereotyping. If he can push off the always-demanding Southerners around him, he would do okay.
How do you like that? Not quite?

George Ayittey must shut the heck up, if he has nothing constructive to offer. He has always criticized Ghana, without offering any constructive suggestions for improving our Economy. He even went to the US Congress to denounce us and sell us to the dubious, racist conservative radicals who have never truly wished for our progress.
He is only giving the foreign investors yet another excuse to abandon us. US could be said to have suffered Economic hardships, too, and borrowed from China and elsewhere. Could he appear on TV to claim the US is broke? US has had her rating dropped, too.
He does this to seek recognition as some authority on Ghana's Economy and secure his tenure at American U. We did not see him walk the corridors of our Parliament to sell us any remedy. He only finds fault with us.

Ayittey made a career out of blaming black people everywhere for everything problem on earth. The white racists of the USA loved him so much. Here they had a black man essentially doing their racist work for them. And they hooked him up with a university professorship, which emboldened him to go even more beserk and attack Jessie Jackson and other African-American leaders on the major tv networks and radio chains. He's come to Ghana to find a job because nobody needs him or his "apo" anymore. Economists are a dozen a dime in the US and they don't need anybody with some stale shit and no publications. They've got outstanding economists like Nouriel Roubini (originally from Turkey) who predicted the 2008 financial meltdown years before it happened. Where was Uncle Tom Ayittey? Or Kwesi Botchway? All these crooks are descending on Ghana in search of lucrative political jobs where they can loot to their heart's content when their party is in power. That's what Botchway is doing now and what Ayittey wants badly!

I also suspect you are serious about contributing your quota to end corruption and bribery, among other things for the betterment of oman Ghana. So I presume you will welcome an advice to advance that desire and help gather more people to be on your side to fight corruption. So please seize the talk for a period/season and then act by contacting the creators of this website initiated by the Kenyan Government to address corruption in a very impactful way. Here is the contact and website address - very powerful and gets to solving or reducing bribery and corruption.

I totally second your opinium!!!!
you are one of the kind of people who dont want the truth. If the criticism is positive i dont see anything wrong with it.
By any definition, Ghana has been broke since the advent of OPEC in the early 1970s.

I won’t quit politics until I make US$1m': Deputy Communications Minister, Victoria Hammah,
The Prez must stop his corrupt officials and his hollow Ministers from destroying the Country. The Prez himself must stop his corrupt way and stop his infantile behaviour and the way of life.

Your thinking is part of the reason Ghana will sink further. The truth of the matter is that foreign investors know how corrupt we are so they come to take advantage of us.
The truth hurts. Politicians and party sychophants and others cannot expect this level of looting the National coffers to be sustainable. Sooner or later there will be no money for the Government to do anything. Ghanaians sho ...
