Long life expectancy is a sign of better governance and economy and Mahama must be praised for this. Ghana on course to better from worse left behind by the previous presidents.

Chief or wharever u call ur self. U are such a dick head big time, an idiot and must bow ur empty head in shame. My mum and dad living longer has nothing to do with NDC or Mahama's government. They worked harder for their money and life style. God is also blessing them becus they did not chop Ghana money. Why are u guys so desperate to bring politics into everything sensible ???. U are so sad and to be honest leave politics alone and GET A LIFE .......GOSH

Did not a scribe, (Nunoo-Mensah), tell those who could not cope with the hardship pack bag and baggage and leave Ghana?

Goverment should seriously consider the establishment of Pension Fund to cater for all Ghanaians over 60 years.

Ghana is one of the few countries in the world where the mandatory retirement age is 60 years. In most country the mandatory retirement age is 65 years. I am amazed when I go to Ghana and see some of my still able-bodied classmates already struggling in retirement because they are 60. It is not a healthy thing to retire healthy people at 60 which is now the new 50. Ghana's retirement policy is driving well educated people into poverty and early death. A government that has no safety net for the elderly should not retire people at an age when they are still productive.

first the government has to create jobs and employment for all so we can pay taxes for pension but all these politicians care about is themselves by looting the national coffers to enrich just their families. it's good life expectancy is going up but what good is it doing the nation when the people in charge don't care.

"...1.53 million in 2012.."
Those who keep saying Nana Addo is too old should take note. That's 1.53 million votes for the NPP.
