The only genuine think-tank in Ghana is the NDC party which can tell Ewes & Gas that when they vote for NPP,they'll help Ashantis & Akyems to steal the sea to Kumasi.

WE NEED SENSIBLE AND EXPERIENCE PEOPLE TO LEAD GHANA. VOTE THE USELESS NDC PARTY OUT IN 2016. MAHAMA DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HE IS DOING. HE IS ONLY CELEBRATING THE POSITION HE HAS. VOTE HIM OUT IN 2016.

WE HAVE NO SNOW TO DEAL WITH. NO BITTER COLD TEMPERATURE TO DEAL WITH. People who have these 80% of the year have developed their countries and made life comfortable for themselves.
WE HAVE GOLD, DIAMOND, OIL, GOOD LAND FOR FARMING, WE ARE NOT LANDLOCKED AND WE HAVE TIMBER. We however have THIEVES IN POLITICS and 90% LAZY AND FOOLISH CITIZENS; so with all the good things we have been blessed with that can make life comfortable, WE ARE POOR. IT IS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND. Every foolish person who goes into politics thinks even without any tangible contribution to the development of Ghana, deserve FREE CAR, FREE PETROL, POLICE ESCORT, FREE ACCOMMODATION, LOTS OF CASH REWARDS, A HOUSE BOY AND ANOTHER HUGE SUM OF MONEY AFTER THEIR TERM IN OFFICE FOR MAKING GHANAIANS EVEN POORER.

ARE WE NOT FOOLISH?

If you are not sure of the answer, look at the EUROPEANS AND NORTH AMERICANS. They don't have the FAVOURABLE WEATHER WE HAVE ALL YEAR ROUND, BUT THEY HAVE DEVELOPED THEIR COUNTRIES. So in conclusion, WE ARE VERY FOOLISH. IN FACT, VERY, VERY FOOLISH AND LAZY.

Ghanaians must desist from "worshipping" presidents and begin to hold presidents and leaders accountable. Bravo Greenstreet for showing Ghanaians the right way. Why bow to presidents when they are stealing millions of dollars of tax payer's money. The NDC people are enjoying while the people are suffering. Is this the better Ghana agenda. Thank you Greenstreet and more grease. May the Lord protect you

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.

The analysis is good but as a Ghanaian I sometimes wonder if we apply the basis of what we study in school. Eg let us look at the principles of MANAGEMENT or let me quote Peter Drucker " Leadership is the lifting of vision to the highest sight" Are we managing resources?. Greed, Jealousy, Selfishness and Nepotism have destroyed Ghana.

Thank you Kwame. This is exactly what I often speak it out. Common sense lack in our administrations but due to corrupt nature of our leaders, they will always run to IMF for a bail out, although they could have fought corruption alone by collecting all the money loss through nepotism and thievery. All of us could help, if they are willing to participate us in the implementation of practical solutions.
But you know what? NDC need more money to still the country completely dry so that the next government will not have the opportunity to have some.

This is an organised crime by these NDC people and their followers.

It is very sad.
IMF is not necessary and the IMANI should come again to explain why it is needed.
IMF intervention increase even our already unbelievable debt. So what is the IMF does that Ghanaian foreign professionals can not do.

This government is simply a thief.

WHY HAVE THE NOISY SO CALLED EDUCATED FAILED TO REASON.

ALL OF THESE PEOPLE HAVE NOT BEEN PRODUCTIVE AND EVEN TO PRODUCE COMMUN THINGS LIKE SCREW DRIVER, HAMMER, TEASPOON,BATTERY,BOLT, MIRROR, FRYING PAN,SCREWS,PENCIL, ChALK AND RULERS, ETC, ETC, FOR THE NATIONAL AND REGIONAL MARKETS IN AFRICA.

DO THESE PEOPLE KNOW, HOW GHANA SERVICES ITS NATIONAL BUDGETS.

WE MUST BE THANKFUL TO THE ILLITERATE COCOA FARMERS AND MINE LABOURERS OON THER HARDWORK GHANA EARNS ITS FOREIGN CURRENCY:

WAS IT WORTH FOR THE NATION EVEN TO EDUCATE ITS CITIZENS AT THE UNIVEERSITIES FOR NON PRODUCTIVE WORK IN GHANA.

WE ARE INDEED VERY SHAMEFUL,HOPLESS, USELESS AND DISGRACEFUL PEOPLE ON EARTH;

SHOW TO THE SEVENTY(70%)PERCENT OF THE PEOPLE LIVING IN THE RURAL AREAS YOUR SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY,INNOVATION AND INVENTIONS.

TIME FOR THE GOVERNMENT ALL THESE PEOPLE TO CULTIVATE THE VAST LNDS OF GHANA FOR FOOD PRODUCTION.

STOP POLLUTING THE MINDS OF THE ILLITERATES AND THE VULNERABLE.
