  Everybody is complaining bitterly but very few dare speak the truth . We shall never move forward until the undeclared war against the Akans, discrimination of the majority and anti Akan propaganda hate agenda is resolved. One must fight fire with fire , war with war not kisses or playing ignorant to the reality . the northerners , ewes , Muslims and other traitors of the Akan interest are systematically destroying the future of the Akans . There is no democracy or govt of the people and by the people but the slow establishment of the caliphate of pepeni murderers using a system of corrupt govt that makes irrelevant all institutions of state in the form of a Saudi style monarchy of mahama and his brothers . Despite our huge potential and the fact that any true patriotic nationalist govt can definitely turn the economy around in less than 6 months , we are bogged down in this situation of undeclared war of the ayigbe and pepeni mafia who have hijacked all institutes of state . only a bloody revolution will set us free . everything we have predicted over the past few years has come to pass and there is more evil to come until we stand up accept that we are at war and must fight back. Even Obama now realizes this caliphate is a serious threat to mankind's peace and unity . All religions are from God but over time the devil ensures the good is interpreted by the wicked and used to cause harm , the righteous know religion is meant to ensure unity and goodwill amongst men not pain and suffering or discrimination. On one hand we have the mafia ndc killing our people's future and around the corner nana chooses as his closest allies northerners who will continue the agenda of hate , wait for the clarion call for freedom and spare none of these criminals in the political oligarchy of corruption and evil . JJ and his ayigbe criminals started this process and God will continue to punish us with hardships and pestilences if we do not stand up

However, we cannot be trotting around the world for loans which terms and conditions are not favorable to us. At least what a sensible society (excluding you and your clueless incompetent P/NDC administration) should have done after they were tricked by the CDB is not to rush for another loan where terms are not clearly defined …..

The fact that the Russian state bank is acting in multiple and conflicting roles says a lot. This is a corruption galore loan.

  Simply put, this NDC govt knows very well that their days are numbered. They are therefore hell bent on mortagaging the country to rogue entities. The idea is they will loot these loans through the usual "create, loot and share " scheme and leave any govt who follows them with massive debts, as NDC goons leave office with millions in their pockets, Do you get the picture.. For Gods sake how many millions or billions in loans have this NDC govt taken , yet the country has nothing to show for it. Why do we sit and take this abuse by this National Destructive Party. All die be die, ,Now do you understand it. We will fight for what is right. And another thing, see where they are looking for loans, China, Iran, Russia, where they can make their dirty deals. They cannot go to Britain, France, Germany, Canada or America. Why? because these countries will monitor to see what the loan is being used for and they will be caught in their "create , loot and share scheme" Lord help us.

  FLORENCE, Italy – Is helping a pal win a contract just being friendly? What's wrong with taking the kids to the beach in the office car? And why not linger over lunch at the trattoria if things aren't too hectic at work? These are the kinds of questions that city bureaucrats pondered recently in Florence in what has been billed as Italy's first anti-corruption class for public officials.
  
  Italy, the birthplace of the Mafia, is notorious for its problems with corruption — and these days it's awash with scandals that have tainted some of its most important public works projects. But the lessons in Florence took aim at more mundane problems: the little instances of everyday corruption that many Italians don't even recognize as being wrong.
  
  The approach proposes to tackle corruption at its roots: a deeply ingrained mentality where friendly reciprocity can too easily cross the line into nepotism, and where tolerance, on the one hand admirable, can also mean turning a blind eye to wrongdoing. Such tendencies may not always be the driver of corruption, but can allow it to flourish.
  
  "The issue is to make bureaucrats and citizens understand that this type of behavior is not correct anymore, you can no longer do this," said Marco Giuri, one of the teachers of the course. "Because in our mentality, it's not corruption, it's just help. It's not that you are paying for a service, but it's simply a favor between contacts, a relative, or the fact that he's a friend. These occurrences are the most common and they are the ones the law wants to break through — and it's common because it's really in the DNA of Italians."
  
  While Italians may struggle to identify corrupt behavior, there's almost universal agreement that it's pervasive: A 2014 EU Commission report found that 97 percent of Italians think corruption is widespread in their country.
  
  The issues the students bring up show that corruption is often a cultural matter in Italy.
  
  "Sometimes they are very small problems ... maybe someone always uses the public car for personal use," said student Simone Cucinotte. "There's a mindset of being a bit elastic on these things."
  
  The school is part of Italy's recent shift to focusing on preventive instead of punitive measures to fight corruption, introduced by a landmark 2012 anti-corruption law. Under the new rules, each city administration must appoint an anti-corruption compliance officer to monitor problems and map out new anti-corruption and transparency plans.
  
  At the Florence course, instructors exhorted their students to focus on locating the problems: Encourage employees to call day or night to report suspicions of corrupt behavior. Create plans to educate the office on what constitutes corruption. And most of all, don't forget to record all activities: Without written proof, you have nothing!
  
  The students nodded along, vigorously taking notes.
  
  Cucinotte said he believed the course could help him make a difference in his office. "If you hold meetings and you involve people and you explain that there will be checks, people get used to the idea," he said. "Maybe they will think twice before doing these things. Instead, if you think that no one is checking, then you're more tempted to take liberties."
  
  And those liberties, big or small, can have a serious impact. Giuri said that bureaucratic inefficiency and endemic disrespect for rules are a form of corruption that can be just as harmful as money changing hands — dragging down the economy and lowering trust in institutions.
  
  "The concept of corruption, according to our law, is much wider that simply bribes, extortion or kickbacks," said Giuri. "Not complying with the working hours, not respecting service orders, not performing work functions, all fall within this very broad concept of anti-corruption."
  
  Giuri is cautiously hopeful that more classes like this one will lower corruption, but he also has his doubts. After all, public employees have to start coming forward to denounce instances of corruption if the system is to work.
  
  He said that even if the law, in theory, says that whistleblowers should not face discrimination, protection is still weak.
  
  And then, the problem may go back to culture: It is one thing to teach the definitions of corruption. It's an entirely different battle to challenge the stigma associated with being a "spy."
