MAHAMA AND HIS BUNCH OF CROOKISH INCOMPETENT CORRUPT MONSTERS CAN NEVER DO IT! NO! NOT IN A MILLION YEARS!!! NDC LACK THE BRAINS. JUST LOOK AROUND; CAN'T YOU SEE? JUST OPEN YOUR EARS; CAN'T YOU HEAR? IS THIS THE GHANA K4 HANDED OVER TO NDC GREEDY CORRUPT BASTARDS??? ---------------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.

Thank you, Mr. Greenstreet, you spoke what is in the heart of Ghanaians. Everyone in this world knows NDC hates the truth and would like to hear lies because they are liers. If NDC is really truthful to themselves they will know he spoke the truth and if you ask Ghanaians, I am sure 80% of the people will agree with him. Let N D C come back to their senses and accept the truth and that wopill save this nation.

There are still many Ghanaians who either by way of tribalism or beneficiaries of this incompetent, arrogant and corrupt NDC regime they are still follwing sheepishly. Many more of us Ghanaians must carry this kind of message to every corner of Ghana before 2016 elections. The 2016 elections must be won by, Bold, Courageous and Visionary Leadership, never again should an 'Ide Bee k3k3' type of leader be elected in Ghana.

We have been in this country when the uncompleted extension of the runway of Kumasi Regional Airport has been described by the Mahama NDC gov't as an ultra modern international airport comparable to any international airport in the US, Germany, France, UK, Holland, China, Hong Kong, etc, etc. So what does the Mahama NDC gov't means by an ultra modern Kumasi central market because Ghanaians have had it with mediocre leadership and propaganda.

Ayariga, it appears you lack proper understanding of the role of the media in a democratic society. One of their roles is to hold politicians, leaders and the citizens accountable by asking how the resources of the state are used. That is not useless question. You are not the one to tell journalists what questions to ask. You are arrogant and disrespectful. Who do you think you are? For your information, a minister is a servant of the public paid by the taxpayer, expected to be humble and respectful. Shame unto you.

We all listen in on his interview and the need to be angry about the stupid questions put before him by Captain Smart on Adom FM's Dwaso Nsem morning show. I don't even know why he honoured that invitation to one of the known radio or media outfit typically renowned for reporting rubbish when it comes to anything under the Mahama-led NDC administration. How unfortunate that was, advice is abound not to repeat such again since what just happened yesterday served as a catalyst to deny any further interview to that outfit and its appendages elsewhere across the country by any NDC government officials henceforth.

Enough has been tolerated over the all too often one-sided journalism under the guise of the so-called freedom of speech and we're not going to allow that anymore until a semblance of objectivity enshrine in that same freedom of speech and practice successfully the world over is practically embraced by these "unwarranted press mushroomers" calling themselves legitimate media houses across the spectrum. It's that simple.

Now, as my uncle may jokingly put it, thus, "It's only when a mosquito lands accidentally on one's testicles that the necessity of cautiousness creates the tendency to solve a major problem amicable avoidance of violence." So then, until lessons are learnt, none of the ministers under this administration will and I repeat, will grant these politically imbalanced mushroom media houses any interview whatsoever hereinafter.

Why won't you focus on the fact that In the midst of scarce resources, someone who's on the public payroll chooses to insult the public for daring to ask questions? unfortunately it has come to this because we have a bunch of goons in position who are nothing but ambulance chasers / scavengers feeding fat on sorry Ghana as it stumbles as a result of bad management; then you have their hangers-on who do nothing but fight for the scraps been thrown to them and you dare not cough! Next time advice peabrained ayariga to send his answers to the questions he wanted to be asked or better yet questions issue a reasoned statement for the public at large. What a waste of scarce public resources!

My simple question is was this guy appointed to a ministerial position on merit or on some kind of tribal favour appointment?

The danger here as a country is, when people in authority talk like this what they do is belittling the positions of the President and minister thereby loosing the public respect.

Did he know that as a minister you are accountable to the public through several means including questions the public want answers asked by the press?

Ayariga and his likes like Nunoo Mensahs, Barton Oduros, Asiedua Nketias, Fifi Kwateys and co certainly need to be schooled about political and social ethics and diplomacy and most sriously need anger management lessons to grow in politics.

The NDC criminals has become so corruptly rich that they are blind with naughtiness and arrogance.

No minister will publicly respond to the press and be in his seat the next minute in any civilized country.

Ghanaians choose to vote for dogs and here we are, embarrassingly being ruined by real animals.

Leave the Government alone let them do their work. They were voted and rather unfortunately if no sense can come out of people then don't write.

I am yet to see a European or an American journalist asking the man in charge of sports of how much the French soccer team spent on food during the World cup for example. A typical question from a journalist from that part of the world will be : " well done for the performance of the team so far. We identified a few flaws related to............. Mr minister, what are your next steps to ensure we clinch the cup or trophy during the next tournament?" The cost of food eaten by the black stars during the 3 week tournament can be borne either by Dede or Jordan or Asamoah Djan or Afriyie Acquah or Wakaso alone. Some Ghanaians are full of suspicion. They don't know what time is it. What a useless question indeed.

It is just unfortunate that such stupid fools are appointed to positions of trust in Ghana. The money the so-called Minister is being asked to account for belongs to the nation. The Mahama government, the most useless Ghana has ever had, is bent on ruining the country.

Why try to deflect legitimate questions about so much money misspent and syphoned into private pockets when Ghana is suffering for no electric power; when those who generate the money scrape dirty water from ponds to drink.
The stupid fool was asking if the peoples' press were the Auditors. It is sad!!!!

What he was suggesting to be asked about sporting and football clubs are merely peripheral issues, and has nothing to do with being asked to account for so much money that he and his bosses have misapplied to themselves.

Why should you camp in cold weather Spain where it is even more expensive for a tournament in hot Africa then complain about money spent. Oh Ghana! Common sense is very very far from Academic knowledge.

NDC is not political party, There is no political quality in them. A quality politician have the tendency of answering questions professionally and or politically under extreme provocation or pressure.No professionalism.

I don't think the questions were provocative enough. Those who voted have realised their folly.

I listened to the interview and felt the glowing charcoal incadescent but the firebrand journalist was recalcitrant. I think the judgement being pronounced should be evenly apportionned to Capt and the Minister. They were both angry and in a more candid way, the Capt acted less professional by making some scathing remarks on air thereafter in English and Twi.Never mind, african democracy still in evolution....

Whenever a cotton wool gets stuck on a tree or on an object, the question it asked the wind which took it there is where are you going and why all these 'whill whill and the hoo hoo' about? Now Ayariga has forgotten that these journalists were the people who propagated for them to get to where they are today. Gone are the days when these people(Ayariga and Co) were pounding Fufu at Atwemonomu and carrying shit! Now he has got the gut to attack journalists. Ghanaian journalists must now master the courage to call the spade a spade. I hope they ( journalist), will learn a big lesson out of this. A word to the wise is enough.

WHY WAS HE SO ANGRY IF HE HAD NOTHING TO HIDE? THE QUESTION WAS ASKED BECAUSE THE JOURNALIST HAD SOME IIFORMATION ON HOW MUCH MONEY WAS SPENT ON FOOD AND THOUGHT IT WAS UNREASONABLE. SO ANSWER HIM.

Monkey wear suit!! How dare this arrogant pepeni display such impudence. He used to be a minister for communication but has nothing but contempt for journalists, the media and the concepts of transparency and accountability in a modern democracy. A typical otani he feels too big in public office to be questioned or challenged. He wants to be left free to spend tax payer's money without question because the fucking garden boy thinks he is wiser and knows better than all Ghanaians.

An apology of a minster. Define a reasonable question. The time of reckoning is around. Keep on displaying your arrogance and disrespect for the Ghanaian. Ayariga is a crook.

This guy is a big fool..what kind of ministers are running the country now. The best he could have done was to refer whoever asked the question to whoever was in charge of finance if he does not know. It's tax money. It belongs to the Ghanians so we have the right to know how much is used to the last cedi. Why is this fool afraid of accountability? Mr minister it's just like you giving money for a job to be done for you and you asking your workers how the money was spent.is this something you have never done in your life before?
