WHO CAN PROVE KWASI ADADE WRONG? I AM SAYING, THAT, GHANAIANS VOTED FOOLISHLY!! IS THIS NDC'S BETTER GHANA? THEN WHAT WILL THEIR BITTER GHANA BE?--IF THIS IS NDC'S PRAISE THE LORD, THEN, WHAT WILL THEIR CRUCIFY HIM BE? GHANA'S PROBLEM, TODAY, IS NOTHING BUT THE RESULT OF CRIMINAL NDC'S ALLIANCE TO CREATE, LOOT AND SHARE POLICY***---------------*** "IT IS ONLY A FOOL, WHO ALLOWS HIS TESTICLES TO BE STEPPED ON, TWICE"-------GO OUT THERE AND RECEIVE YOUR REWARD, ALL GHANAIANS. GO AND PAY THE PRICE FOR YOUR FOOLISHNESS. YOU DON'T GIVE A SECOND MANDATE TO AN INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, NO!! NOT AT ALL, THAT IS ABOMINATION IN DEMOCRACY, VERY SUICIDAL. HAD NDC MANAGED THE ECONOMY WELL, THESE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THE SITUATION. NDC HAS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES GHANA HAS EVER HAD. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED MORE LOANS THAN ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT IN OUR HISTORY, BUT THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS. GHANAIANS SHOULD HAVE ENJOYED SOME ECONOMIC PROGRESS AT THIS TIME IN OUR HISTORY. THE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS SO CORRUPT. TO RESCUE THE SITUATION, THE POOR IS NOW BEING FORCED TO PAY. THIS IS INJUSTICE. THIS IS NOT THE GHANA KUFFOUR HANDED OVER TO NDC, HE EVEN ADDED FRESH CRUDE OIL WELLS. NPP TRANFORMED GHANA TO A MIDDLE INCOME ECONOMY WITH LIMITED RESOURCES BUT GOOD POLICIES. NDC IS WOEFULLY REVERSING THESE NPP ACHIEVEMENTS. GHANA'S CURRENT SITUATION IS VERY DISTURBING. WHEN THE HISTORY IS TOLD, IT WILL BE SAID THAT GHANAIANS WERE OFFERED FREE SECONDARY EDUCATION, IMPROVED UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL HOUSING FOR THE POOR AND AN EGALITARIAN SOCIETY BUT 50% SAID NO THANK YOU. THEY PREFERRED ECONOMIC "WOYOMISATION" , PHANTOM DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, PHILANDERERS FOR LEADERS, MACHIAVELLIAN DISRESPECTFUL CORRUPT LOUTS AND A VISIONLESS EVIL GOVERNMENT. I AM SO PROUD I VOTED FOR NANA AKUFFO ADDO.

Being in government doesn’t warrant political parties to tell lies.

We are not happy about the political posture of the National Democratic Party who

have taken solace in “lies”.

“NDC are really not performing the work of a governing party. They only tell lies; but the reason government exist in a democracy is because they are there to solve the problems of the people and better their lives. But unfortunately, the NDC isn’t doing that..

NDC MUST to get lessons from institutions capable of inculcating in them the need to be responsible in GOVERNMENT.

Being in opposition doesn’t warrant political parties to tell lies, says Johnson Asiedu Nketia.

The National Democratic Congress Chief Scribe explained that he is currently not happy about the political posture of the New Patriotic Party. His reason for not being happy is because he feels his political opponents have taken solace in “lies”.

“I have seen that the NPP are really not performing the work of an opposition party. They only tell lies; but the reason opposition parties exist in a democracy is because they are there to put out constructive argument. But unfortunately, the NPP isn’t doing that”, he told Okay FM.

He ended by entreating executives of the NPP to get lessons from institutions capable of inculcating in them the need to be responsible in opposition.

How can Ghana woo foreign investors if they read or hear such news that basic amenity "electricity flow" can not be guaranteed all year run? Yet we have a whole corporation in charge of running the only source of electricity in the country with so called experts and analysts. Hmmm da ben?

This shortfall in power supply and consequent return to dumso dumso brings to the fore the need to expedite work on the Jubilee gas pipeline and the thermal plants in Takoradi.

Gov't must focus on getting the pipeline constructed as quickly as possible, and the gas flowing from the jubilee fields to the Thermal plant.

We must also encourage the domestic use of solar power. Gov't must examine ways of encouraging solar, including domestic users selling excess power generated to the national grid. Technology for this exists, and it has been started experimentally on a small scale.

We must also consider investing in biomass energy recycling faeces and rubbish. Wind turbines and wave power are other considerations.
