THIS MAN IS JUST LOOK VERY STUPID WIHT HIS GREVANCES. ONCE A CITIZEN ALWAYS A CITIZEN. IF SO CALLED LEARNED MEN LIKE PAA, TALK LIKE THIS I JUST FEEL PITY FOR THEM. THEY LOOK BRAINLESS. HE HAS BEEN PART OF A GOVERNMENT BEFORE. WHAT DID GHANA ACHIEVE? ONCE THEY ARE OUT GHANA IS NO MORE GHANA. HE WAS EVEN CHASTISING KUFFOUR WHO FAVOURED HIM WITH A POSITION. HE CAN GO TO HELL IF HE FEELS BAD TO BE CALLED A GHANAIAN. PEOPLE LIKE THIS SHOULD NEVER BE CONSIDERED AS LEADERS.

It is heavily regrettable to be claimed
as a Ghanaian under NDC corrupt, thievery and brigand administration.

Ghanaian People are being administered
by criminals, selfish Cows.

I repeat.Oh Nigga you gonna Nig.
What does not seem to be coming across is that Mahama is not and never has been of presidential quality and was never meant to be...he is a placeman for others like Blair was. Thats why he is useless at everything because he is quite simply out of his depth. No experience.no personal gravitas only in the eyes of the befuddled and mislead.A window dressing excercise pure and simple,like Blair,. Both men have the same quality, that you would not want to shake their hand or engage with them in any way.
Politicians have divided this once great nation by deception. They do not give at toss about country or people, which is why the people are apathetic. We have had no quality of leadership for decades, with either of the pathetic lying parties.
President Mahama cannot be re-elected and he has one eye on what history will say about him. I have the distinct impression that much like an ostrich he has buried his head in the sand hoping that many of the problems facing his presidency will go away.this country I love is failing in so many areas it makes my heart weep. And this case is another where I hang my head in shame.

There must be a course at university with a degree in fiddling the system,this lot would make perfect lecturers.
Disgusting vermin.

GHANAIANS MUST START USING THEIR TRUE WISDOM, WHEN ELECTION TIME COMES AROUND. IF YOU KNOW, YOU LACK WISDOM, ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TO COMPARE YOUR STANDARD OF LIVING 2 YEARS AGO, TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY AND ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION :

" AM I BETTER OFF TODAY, COMPARED TO A YEAR AGO " ?

IF YOUR ANSWER IS NO, MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT VOTE FOR YOUR OWN BROTHER EVEN IF YOUR IS CONTESTING ON THE TICKET OF THE NDC PARTY. DO NOT VOTE FOR "ANYTHING" NDC.

Ghanaian are still respected around the world.
1) Even though we lost to the USA in the 2014 world Cup tournament. The Americans who Watched the match held, us in high esteem. We were classic.
2) Ghana's democratic political achievement is an envy to many African countries.
3) Our wealth is better distributed among our people that our neighbors. Though we have a long way to go.
4) Transparency, vigorous debate, press freedom, media desermination is better than our neighbors.
5) Our people are more educated as a ratio to the population than most Sub-Saharan Africa.

Myopic mind huh!Ghana will be tougher,if you think it is tough for you now.Call yourself stupid if you think standard of living will be better for moron like you under any person as prez.Any politician who tells you he does not need money for himself or his appointees is saying so because they know morons like you are there for their votes. Selling family property,home and abroad(what their fathers'bought from ghana money they loot) to invest in politics,and this person tells you he did so because he loves Ghana than anyone.You will be doomed by your own stupity if you don't start doing something to help yourself.

YOU'RE RIGHT MY BROTHER. DON'T MIND THIS FANTE "DWARf" HE IS PART OF THE LOOTING POLITICIANS IN GHANA. HE SERVED UNDER ONE OF THE CORRUPT GOVERNMENT OF GHANA FOR 8 YEARS. WHAT DID HE CHANGE? NOTHING! THESE HYPOCRATES SHOULD STOP DECEIVING GHANAIANS. HIS CHILDREN ARE ALL STUDING OUTSIDE GHANA. HE ATTEND PERIODIC MEDICAL CHECK-UP OUTSIDE SO WHAT A LIER? THE MOST POOREST EUROPEAN AND AMERICAN STATES WHICH DOES NOT HAVE 1/4 OF OUR NATURAL RESOURCE ARE BETTER-OFF THAN US. A WORKER IN GHANA CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR A FULL FOWL FOR HIS FAMILY OR COMPUTER, TV ETC ETC BUT A CLEANER IN AMERICA OR EUROPE CAN AFFORD TO PAY FOR ALL BASIC NEEDS OF LIFE FROM HIS PAY. LEAVE THIS HYPOCRATE/LIER NDOM. SHAME UNTO YOU GREEDY THIEVES OF GHANA!!!!!!!! MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON YOUR SOULS.

I like President Mahama as a person, but he is not up to the task as president of our republic. He has put forward his best but that is not good enough. He has run out of ideas and has no vision for the country. He is operating like someone who just needed a job. Can someone honestly tell me what value this NDC government has added to our country? The answer is ZERO! Mahama must count it as a big favour if he is relieved of his position in 2016!

A couple of days later, Ishola walks into work and says. "Ey,

He says, "Hah! Jerry Rawlings is President of-the fourth Republic of

A guy in the back of the shop yells, "Yo, Ishola...you know

The guy yells, "That's the guy who's bangin' your wife while

There is now clear evidence that Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo, whilst campaigning in 2011 for the flag bearer position of the NPP received several campaing funds from the SMAGA GROUP. After he won, he managed to secure a lot of very large contracts for the SMAGA GROUP and others such as GNOPSOJ.
The IMF and World Bank determined that
1. some of the contracts were illegally awarded
2. monies should not have been paid before completetion of work
3. for most of contracts, no work was performed
The IMF asked the Ghana Government under President Kufour in 2013 to retrieve all moinies paid out illegally, which is over GHC800 million. They did not do it and there is evidence that Nana Addo has started using some of the money in the present campaign, paying for delegates transport and buying motorbikes.

WHERE LIES YOUR PROBLEM OPAYIN NDOUM

AS AN ECONOMIST YOU NEED NOT TO BLAME ANYONE ON THE ECONOMIC DIFFICULTIES AND CHALLENGES FACING THE NATION.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT,IT IS A PITY THAT,THE EDUCATED IN GHANA STILL REMAIN UNCONVINCED OF THE IMPORTANCE OF SCIENTIFIC INNOVATION, DISCOVERY, INVENTION AND CREATIVITY FOR ECONOMIC GROWTH.

DIDN'T YOU LEARN THIS IN YOUR ECONOMIC STUDIES.

ECONOMICS DEALS WITH THE ACTIVITIES OF THE PEOPLE, A SCIENCE THAT IT ASPIRES TO MAKE PREDICTIONS ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF CHANGES IN PEOPLES BEHAVIOUR.

THE BEHAVIOUR CONSIDERED PRIMARILY THAT INVOLVED IN THE MANUFACTUING, PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION TO THE POINT OF SALE.

ARE YOU STILL NOT CONVINCED THAT, NPP AND YOU STOLE THE IDENTITY OF GHANA, CORRUPTED THE NATION AND SQUANDERED THE FUTURE OF THE PRESENT AND THE NEXT GENERATIONS IN THEIR TIME OFFICE FROM 2000-2008.

JUST TAKE A DEEP PAUSE ON THE MANY DUBIOUS AND FICTITIOUS CONTRACT DEALS IN NPP'S TIME OF OFFICE.

THEIR MANY CRIMINAL DEALS ARE THE ANSWERS OF OUR ECONOMIC BACKWARDNESS, UNDERDEVELOPMENT AND EXTREME POVERTY IN GHANA.

PLEASE, WHY WERE YOU PRESSING HIS EXCELLENCY, PRESIDENT MAHAMA TO GO TO THE WORLD BANK AND IMF FOR A BAILOUT.

YOU SHOULD HAVE FIRST KNOWN THAT, THE EDUCATED HAVE NOT BEEN PRODUCTIVE AND TO PROMOTE COMPANIES THAT MANUFACTURES PRODUCTS AND PROVIDES ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR A WIDE RANGE OF INDUSTRIAL, COMMERCIAL AND CONSUMER MARKETS TO ACCELERATE ECONMIC GROWTH, EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES, INCOME,CONSUMER SPENDING AND BETTER STANDARDS OF LIVING IN GHANA.

IS NOT A SHAME,FOR THE ILLITERATE HARDWORKING COCOA FARMERS AND UNSKILLED MINE LABOURERS TO EARN THE NATIONS FOREIGN CURRENCY TO SERVICE NATIONAL BUDGETS, IMPORTATION OF GOODS AND EXPENSIVE LUXURY CARS AND JEEPS FOR THE UNPRODUCTIVE EDUCATED PEOPLE FOR THEIR HIGHLIFE,HONEYMOON AND MERRYMAKING IN THE COUNTRY.

NEVER CAN A NATION BE BUILT ON SUCH A PRIMITIVE FOUNDATION.

THIS IS TOTALLY WRONG AND WRONG AND THIS SHOULD BE A SHAME ON YOU.
