The justification given by Bagbin is childishly pathetic. These NDC officials think Ghanaians are fools. So 275 chairs is too much for Ghanaian furniture makers & since when have they cared about trees?

What the hell does this Moshie man actually mean here? Is it because there are no trees in the North, where he comes from, that makes him to this childish, STUPID and insulting statement about the imported chairs?? Try again, you damn Binbag!!
1) That the Ghanaian furniture makers couldn't have provided the 275 chairs timely; or "are you sitting down or standing up??"
2) That if the chairs were made in Ghana, then there should be more felling of trees, thus damaging our forest reserve inventory?? Is this man I once respected playing with a full deck of mental cards, anyway?
Mr. Bagbin or BINBAG (better), listen up: Ghana is not an industrial country, but rather an agricultural country, as compared to ITALY or China. So, you head Negro, which of these two countries, Ghana or Italy should have TREES for chairs? How long have you been living in caves in the North—specifically in Nadowli, Negro??
Ladies & gentlemen, this shows all of us the high level of naked hypocrisy, big lies, arrogance, duplicity, lip service to our local business people, foolishness and doggone wanton folly. Clearly, we all know that Africans always PREFER MADE IN ABROAD goods to African made goods—simple and pure—else what kind of example are our own elected officials are setting for the rest of us and for the local industries?
I told a female friend the obvious a few days ago, when we were discussing American RICE and Ghanaian RICE and she told me that “the Ghanaian rice is not all that good as compared to the American variety” and that when the Ghanaian rice is cooked, it doesn’t stick together like the American rice. Well, I gave her a short pass on that, because she has been here in America for only about two years.
But, that made me to conclude that "even a bush fowl or grasscutter or antelope in America or Europe would be preferred to those in Ghana”—because those meat from abroad would be considered as TASTING better than those in Africa, although Americans or Europeans don't have bush fowls or grasscutters these days—and that's the STINKING African attitude. They always prefer “made in abroad goods to made in Ghana or Africa.”

It appears Mr Bagbin is gradually loosing his once charming and envious charisma in dealing with contentious issues as a Leader and Minister of government business. This is no mean a position and we expect him to be circumspect in handling such delicate issues like this one. Either perhaps he is aging or he feels complecent that being considered one of the proverbial three wise men in town whatever he says can not be disputed. This cheap political talk of preserving the country's forest reserve as the reason of not contracting our hard working folks in the industry to provide the parliamentary chairs is completely a lose talk. Mr. Bagbin should come again.

If you know someone is not a fool you don't tell him things that don't make sense. Now the Majority Leader is giving us one of the reasons the chairs had to be imported from Italy is that "local manufacturers could not have provided the required number of chairs". Of course if he didn't take us for fools he would have concluded by giving us the time frame the chairs needed to be produced. Mind you, the project has been going on for God knows when.
Secondly if he didn't take us for fools why would he tell us the other reason is to protect our forests from being depleted when he well knows that in the meantime we are exporting timber and wood products?

Unbelievable. Italy has more trees than Ghana or Italy has more carpenters than Ghana. All you had to do was to find at least three good manufacturing companies in Ghana and award them contracts to deliver 100 chairs each. The chairs would have been produced on time for you to move into your new offices on time.
Truth is that we Ghanaians love foreign made products. Stop the hypocricy of advocating for Ghanaians to buy and use locally made goods. You are not setting a good example by importing chairs from Italy. If you do not want to use locally made chairs, why ask the people to buy and use locally made goods.
We all like nicer things in life. You buy from the West and ask us to buy local - what a hypocricy. You are teaching us to be corrupt and that is why a lot of people are migrating to the West and never coming back home.
You know very well that majority of the people are illiterates and taking them for granted. Your time will be up soon.

The loot gifts came from your stollen taxes !!!

I do not believe anybody, let lone an MP, would make an asinine statement, " we don't want our trees to be felled to make 275 chairs."
I do have an indulgence of the biblical Job, but if this quote were true then Ghana really do have home-grown sabotuers who have to be exposed for what they are- sabotuers, and eliminated, come 2016.
The writer of this article should therefore check his-her notes for the correct attribution.

Bagbin's explanation makes no sense. I am glad I lived to see IDC made furniture in Ghana. Better than most imported furniture.
I am glad I lived to see Tema Dry Docks' locally manufactured furniture in Ghana. Foreign registered ships were customers.
The government needs to nurture local industries. Promote bottled palm wine instead of imported champagne at state functions. Serve fried coco yam instead of fried imported potatoes.

1. Ghana drills crude oil to export but same Ghana buy crude oil to run Tema oil refinery, when we said something the excuse was the equipments in TOR cannot process Ghana's crude oil(what a shame! !!!) can't the equipment be retrofitted to process crude from Ghana?
2. Listen to this bull shit this MP is talking about we continue to cut down trees for export then we go back to buy furnitures made of particle board ( For those of you who do not know what particle board is., it is a saw dust mixed with glue and pressed together to make boards the size of the board depends on the mold used) I was a sales specialist and I sold a lots products from China. Wood crafters in Ghana could have made furnitures with Ghanaian accents just beautify these offices.

So after the appeal by the Prez for us to consume locally manufactured products, we shamelessly go and buy furniture from Italy. Is Italy more forested than Ghana? Kpogas Furniture and others should go on a demo on this. Nkwa ...

Mr. Bagbin and co are disgracefully dishonest to the core. Its a big, big,shame, frustrating and disappointing to hear those "reasons" assigned to the importation of chairs for parliamentary purposes. Honourable, my foot.
This myopic guy has lost my respect.
What're the populations of China and Italy compared to Ghana?If govts of these countries allow their companies to fell trees and add value to them for exports which give more foreign exch ...

What a country? We cut down and export raw timber logs, and then we turn round and import furniture because we don't want to deplete our forests. This is Kajetia logic
Can't local companies at least import the furniture parts and assemble them here if Bagbin's claim that parliament want to preserve Ghana's forest is anything to go by. Anyway, how many trees has the NDC added to our forest s ...

Because they know Ghanaians are fools with short memory. Mahama said it . He is giving you shit, but he is confident of getting your votes in 2016 because you have short memory. Ide be k3k3 !!!
The noisy minority in Parliament definitely knows which side of their bread is buttered. when it comes to their personal comfort and emoluments, they are prepared to dine with the NDC and clean their mouths like chicken.
I am surprised to hear such a stupid answer from this stupid leader.

Yet another example of these NDC people taking us for a ride. Here you have high unemployment and lots of natural resources and you give the contract to some foreigners and pay them in timely manner.

Stupid northner. Womaatsw3 biioomm... kwasia guy. that importing help prevent felling off tree. when did felling of trees become a bad thing. felling trees without replanting them is the bad thing. stupid fool.. come again.
Thanks to Prez Mahama for this effort. Previous presidents were not able to do this. KEEP IT UP.
You are missing the point here. Just buy Ghanaian!
Mr Bagbin, with all due respect, your argument is BS
If Ghana is not ready go in to manufacturing economy we are going to perish.This should have been supplied by Ghanaian industry.

So Ghana will export the timber to Italy first. Then the crooks, also known as politicians, will import furniture made from the same timber to Ghana. And that import arrangement saves our forests? Give us a break!

Look at the excuses the Majority Leader is giving to Ghanaians.These politicians are taking Ghanaians for granted.Wake up Ghanaians.
This is an insult to our local carpenters and wood workers. If we can't use what we produce then the government should stop fooling Ghanaians with the slogan 'USE MADE IN GHANA GOODS'

Why not import rather than going through middle men

This is how pathertic we r. No wonder we live in poverty. No leadership was so ever. 275 chairs can't be produced in Ghana? come again NDC - U r a ddisgrace
Honorable. Where did the Italians get the Lumber to make the chairs from? Not Takoradi Harbour? Good Hel Ghana!
what kind of nonsense is he talking about? what has he ever added to Ghana's economy? this are the kind of people who question others who prefer foreign products to that of local ones. apuuuuuuuu!!!!!!
