People of GHANA, do not support POLITICAL PARTIES like you would support HEARTS or KOTOKO. Political parties are a GROUP OF PEOPLE who claimed they can MANAGE AFFAIRS of our COUNTRY for us. They do that FOR A LIVING, and we PAY THEM for what they do. You must therefore use your HEAD not your EMOTION to ASSESS THEIR PERFORMANCE. That is the ONLY WAY you can give them A FAIR ASSESSMENT. When they do a GOOD JOB you RETAIN them, when they don't, you KICK THEM OUT. If they COMMIT any CRIME whiles in OFFICE, you PROSECUTE THEM to serve as DETERRENT for others. This is the only way our country can move forward. Remember also that MEMBERS of PARLIAMENT are accountable to you, the people who put them there. MONITOR what they are doing and question them on it when they come back to you for RE-ELECTION. YOU HAVE THE POWER, not them. For those who PROPAGATE TRIBAL DISCRIMINATION, don't vote for them; and tell them in the face that you don't want GHANA DIVIDED. God bless every Ghanaian. Long Live Ghana.

Mr President, there is too much lawless in Ghana. The best way to change people's attitude is to enforce the laws, rules and regulations and make sure the people comply with such laws, rules and regulations without exception. Until that happens, Ghana is going nowhere. This must done through the rule of law and no force should be used. That means the judiciary must be effective and speedy. If this is done, there would be a cultural shift in Ghana for the better.

Kofi, you've said it all. I hope somebody reads this and take it serious. I will also want to add that it should be made a crime for people to interfere with police work. An example is, approaching and begging an officer by a third party who has not been invited by the officer to let someone free. This is where corruption starts. Things will get better when we get serious. Long Live Ghana.

It is ironic that a "leader" whose personality exudes nothing but corruption, incompetence, indolence, nepotism, tribalism, ethnocentrism, lawlessness, looting, sharing and indirect killing of Ghanaians through his ineptitude, dismal "leadership" and ubiquitous mismanagement of everything in Ghana thinks he is so perfect that every Ghanaian should change and be corrupt like him.
MAHAMA if there is anybody in Ghana who needs to change you are the only one who needs to change. You have disregarded even basic requirements of the rule of law. We are waiting for you to honour that token requirement for you to declare your assets. FOOLISH MAN - JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA.

Mr. President, I am amzed at this statement of your's. How on earth should you think that you can change the attitude of Ghanaians? You, as a PRESIDENT, have to change your attitude first. You can do this by changing the way you think and the way you perceive GHANAIANS. aFTER THAT, YOU NEED TO DEPROGRAMME YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS AND REPROGRAMME IT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE PECULIARITIES OF GHANAIAN CULTURE, CUSTOMS ETC.
If you are finding it difficult to get Ghanaians to buy into our ideas, please, do not blame the people you lead. Acknowledge that the blame is your's to bear. It means that you have woefully failed in your communication attempt to bring about a desired change. A statement of this nature, coming from a PRESIDENT is very strange and unfortunate. As a Ghanaian, I feel ashamed that my own PRESIDENT should make such a statement on an INTERNATIONAL PLATFORM. Please get some schooling.

What kind of attitude? You have bred put more fire into bribery and corruption and turn the nation into survival of fitters and you talk about change in attitude? When you act, Ghanaians will follow you. If you can honestly fight corruption and you are transparent in your work as a president, you dont need any education of the people, things will change automatically. You cannot sell Merchant bank to yourself, your brother is given money to pay back to the bank and turn around to tell us to change what kind of attitude. Are we that stupid and foolish?? If you can still contract people like Wereko Brobbey, Vicky, Anita Desooso, and co, what good do you have to offer this nation? Your attitude is appauling. I will not fear to voice this out...after all I am a Ghanaian. Today, every corner, you find our brother Northerners in position. Every news of Govt. officials hovers around Northern names. WHERE WERE THEY BEFORE YOU? I dont mean they aer incompetent, but what I mean is that, have they suddenly become more competent than others? This been a norm, sometime ago, but you have deepened it. So stop telling us this shit. You can speak english to fill the time given you but do not say things like this. If you have any advise, start on your own self. You raise your salary over 100% and you cut 10% because economy is bad...do you think we are class one pupil or your fellows who live Torna village?

Mr President, if Ghanaians had the right attitude, you and your wicked agents would not have done propaganda on Kuffours suggestion that Ghanaians should eschew laziness. When Mills came, he described Ghanaians as complaining too much. Now you have described all Ghanaians as baloney and have short memory. Because we have short memory, Ghanaians abandoned Free Cocoa Mass Spraying, working NHIS, Micro Credit Schemes, NYEP, Free SHS etc and followed you blindly into white elephant One time Premium, GYEADA, SADA, SUBA and Azongtongba including Woyomisation. Today, Ghana is a sick nation, directionless and hopeless all because of Nkwasiafo bi nti. You will fail and go down in history for being the most useless of all Ghanaians.

There will never be a change in the attitude of Ghanaians so long as:
So long as the President keep surrounding himself with greedy, selfish individual wants to do nothing about amass wealth wrongly.

So long as the President keep bringing boys to the seat who infact can do nothing accept enriching themselves.

So long as they keep rewarding attracting and rewarding young people into politics for the wrong reason.

So long as politicians are becoming rich overnight.

...Do"—Alright!! And there are busloads of monkeys in Ghana!! Why blame the overall corrupt and stinking situation in Ghana on the "current generation?"

Have you forgotten that "monkey see, monkey do." Younger people see all the WRONG things that the older folks are doing and you blame them for having NASTY attitude toward nation-building?

Even pound for pound, several Ghanaians abroad are MORE PATRIOTIC, honest & hardworking than many corrupt, incompetent and idiotic ministers and MPs in Ghana. At least, the Ghanaians abroad send TONS of money as well as several other material things to family members and friends in Ghana to live on and/or use to build houses, businesses, etc.

% And What are the so-called MPs and Ministers busy doing in Ghana?? %

They're busy STEALING money and government properties for themselves, so if the younger generations see stuff like these, then HEAD NEGRO Mahama, what the heck do you think they will emulate and do in the future? Hasn’t politics become the easiest ways of making money in Ghana? Where is dismissed $1 million Vicky when we need her?? See, there is a saying that the FISH STARTS TO ROT FROM THE HEAD, capito, Negro?? So, check your house first.

So, to be effective and successful to change attitudes towards nation-building, START from the damn TOP. If the leaders are doing the right things, then certainly the youth would follow suit, but not what we currently have. Judges are corrupt, Politicians are corrupt, Church pastors are corrupt, the Police are worst and even school administrators are collecting bribes in the name of some silly term—protocol—to admit even the highly qualified students, so what the F-K do you expect from the current generation??

Human beings will generally respond to the environment and to prevailing circumstances because we're endowed naturally with a survival instinct and so very adaptive.
I sincerely believe the President knows deep down his soul that to awaken the nation from slumber, get every one on their feet and start working and thinking with a purpose will require attitudinal changes. Great but he who is calling for the change must be the embodiment of change itself. The change must start with the first gentleman, the President of Ghana, (POG), but his call is bound to fall on deaf ears because he's known to have set many bad precedents since taking the oath of office. There are many examples but perhaps just two examples will suffice. He flouted the constitutional requirement of assets declaration before taking office and secondly his decision to take the first family to Dubai for the Christmas holidays at the taxpayers expense at a time of great economic distress was seen as irrational by the majority of ghanaians who bear the brunt of the effects of the administration's visionless economic policies, wasteful spending and unbridled corruption in high places. Changes don't happen in a vaccum where there's no activity. President Mahama must not lead from behind. He must set the ball rolling and lead. The rest of us will follow his lead. When the'head'moves the rest of the body follows.
He must be a true shepherd, not a hireling. The difference between the two is that while the shepherd leads his flock to greener pastures and where the still waters flow and puts his life on the line to defend his flock, the hireling drives the flock from behind and flees when they're attacked .
People can change with the right type of leadership in place. Rawlings, whom I don't appreciate very much was able to motivate people even if it was for a brief spell, to carry bags of cocoa from from the hinterland. It happened because he personally participated in the task. Again he jumped into the gutter to help desilt choked up gutters. That was revolutionary leadership then! No one is asking President Mahama to jump into the gutter like Rawlings but he needs to lead by example.

Whatever officialdom give to the people, that is what they would get back from them. If Ghanaians are refusing to change their attitude, it is because the central authority hasn't also changed its attitude. If you believe that so-called partners will develop Ghana, don't expect the Ghanaian people to have confidence in themselves because that is what you're given them. It is common logic.
Ghannaian attitudinal behavior is only a part of a general adaptation to the harsh realities imposed on them by the central authority. If you want to change their attitudes therefore, you've got to lead the fight against the realities of betrayals from officialdom, greed, high taxes, joblessness, poor planning, inferiority complex, lack of a coordinated national education of consciousness etc.

There's no buy-in and it can't be forced because, the masses see what the Mahama family and friends are doing to the national kitty under an NDC nation-wrecking policy of create, loot and share, a very retrogressive policy, that has within a period of just a little over 5years has completely collapsed the country; the finances and economy is heading south with the speed of light, health is in a moribund state, utilities are non-existent, taxes are through the roof, unemployment continues to escalate, businesses are collapsing leading to more unemployment, gov't owes various local contractors of various shape and form huge amounts of legitimate monies, statutory legal obligations to GETFUND, NHIS, DACF are all in arrears, under education, quality and access is in the pits, agricultural activities to feed the masses and for export is at best in tots, etc, etc, meanwhile, the brazen looting and thievery continues unabated with the most recent being the criminal loot of Merchant bank resulting in pensioners eg those under the CSIR not receiving their pensions, by the Mahama family and friends looting brigade. It is a gov't which is absolutely out of touch with reality, which would have the cojones to suggest that the citizenry have a buy-in when it doesn't benefit them in anyway, shape or form, and would seek to hoodwink the masses and insult their intelligence with propaganda, lies and deceit.
The situation even becomes more compounded, when the citizenry do not believe the NDC gov't led by John Mahama won the elections cleanly and freely, without rigging the process, in the face of gross violations of electoral laws, and the looting of the national kitty to prosecute the process, blowing the finances of the country out of the water in the process.
Going by all these, what makes the issues difficult for the NDC gov't to get the so called buy-in, is the nonchalance of the gov't to accept responsibility for their own self-inflicted challenges, but would want to blame imaginary enemies, nature, acts of God, the opposition, any and everybody but themselves, and a lack of demonstrable acumen, competence, experience, track record, know-how, clear eyed vision, pragmatism, intelligence, foresight and mental focus, but to mention a few, to address these self-inflicted challenges.
The problem once again is not an issue of a change in attitude of Ghanaians, which is a convenient escape route for the NDC gov't led by John Mahama to accept responsibility for it's actions.
Ghana went HIPC on the recklessness of this same NDC gov't in the early 2000's, but as at the time the previous NPP gov't was leaving office, the country had been put on the right and positive trajectory and had attained a lower middle income economic status under a whirlwind of focused, visionary, competent, leadership, all within a mind-blowing period of just 8years in the absence of oil. The issue is not about the citizenry, but the NDC gov't led by John Mahama and Amissah Arthur. There's no confidence in the ability of the NDC gov't to address the issues, and Ghana cannot continue to go back to it's vomit under the NDC gov't, if it is ever to progress and it is for this reason that, the popular clarion call, is for the NDC gov't to be massively voted out in 2016.

If those at the top are busy creating looting and sharing, by constitutional and many other fraudulent means, what do you expect of those at the bottom?

Mr. President, you can´t change people´s attitude without changing yours first! Why want to change someone? Change yourself and everything around you will automatically start changing!

How can you steal the elections both at the polling station n the supreme court n expect the Gods of the land to make things easy for you. You are a square peg in a round hole. u want to kill Ghanaians n u are saying what?
