Go and see how Prez Mahama of Ghana has transformed Gonjaland with Ghana money just within the two and half years that he has been in power. Every town, village and hamlet in Gonjaland has received a facelift with new facilities such as roads, toilet facilities, markets, mosques, good quality water projects, electricity extension projects, etc. The question is did J. J. Rawlings do the same thing to Voltarians when he was in power for twenty years? What about Atta Mills. The good old Prof was in power for three and a half years yet he was not selfish to only concentrate on his people in Ekumfi Etuam and the central Region but rather his whole thought was for the general good. No wonder under the care of Prez Mills, Ghana achieved a growth rate of 11%, single digit inflation and the smooth implementation of the Single Spine Pay Policy where newly recruited police personnel received the nominal equivalence of 500dollars as monthly salary. Compare these achievements to the nepotism and selfish policies of the Mahama government that has crippled the Ghanaian economy. I really weep for Ewes and Fantis whose votes brought Mahama to power and yet are the hardest hit by the current hardship prevailing in the country.

You are repeating exactly what Rawlings and his "let the blood flow" misguided, inexperienced youth of this country said years ago. They claimed that our older leaders had failed and they took over the country in the 80s and mismanaged it for 20years. The result was a Cuban-style communist dictatorship, economic mismanagement, Rawlings' Chain" and abject poverty.
Those revolutionary youth who were wearing tire sandals and condemned market women to death for petty profiteering, are now billionaires enjoying power and money fraudulently. Throughout the period when Ghana was called "ojah krom", they perpetuated their rule through the gun and electoral malpractices. Unfortunately, they are the ones overseeing the sinking of this country today and they will do everything in their power to rig the elections and continue their mediocre rule, despite the fact that Ghanaians want them out.
Believe me; suggesting that the "youth" should take over the running of this country again will not fly.

In my small economic understanding, the global fuel price is drastically reduced.
Ghana chooses to retain her petrol price when other countries were reducing theirs. The unbearable prices was top up again and again last month or two with 9% increase. Now what has necessitated this 4%?
The Mahama led government is the most uncaring, heartless and unsympathetic to the suffering of the poor.
Because the government promised compensation for flood victims without knowing where the money was going to come from as it is clear the country is broke have to increase petrol price that had already shot up transport fares and food prices.

This is a STUPID and FOOLISH decision and the governments will see itself backtracking in a few days time.This shows that politicians don't learn from history and they've dangerously short memory. The social problems of the late 70s and which led to the coups 1979 and 81when KLABULE was at it's peak was all because General Acheampong decided to give import licences to private businessmen to import so called ESSENTIAL commodities
The results were shortages, simply because you can't trust the Ghanaian businessman to fair as far as opportunity to make profit is concerned. Acheampong thought he could then control prices but went out of his hands and it became free for all until 1979 coup stop the nonsense. Why now, can you prevent fare increases? Because transport owners would take it upon themselves to also use every excuse to increase. Would the government stop them. Please, we forget that we have over 80% iretracy rate. Just look at what is happening with the testing of an Ebola vaccine in this country? PLEASE Mr.PRESIDENT let's stop this petrol price nonsense.

i wont call it a deregulation of fuel prices because goverment still regulates fuel prices through the use of the so called automatic adjustment formula. What the goverment has done is that it has allowed oil marketting companies to apply the formula themselves. So in effect the formular will produce a price ceilling or a maximum price. It is illegal to sell above this price and it is legall to sell at or below the price. Given that demand for fuel is inelastic, if a company reduces its price and comsumers know about it that companies revenue will increase.

THEY DO NOT HAVE THIS WICKED PETROLEUM PRODUCTS PRICING POLICIES.
INFACT, PETROLEUM ...

We shd blame Bawumia he predicted that the dollar would be GH¢4 by mid-year and here we're.He shd be arrested by the NDC economists.
These stupid uncivilized guys in office what can we expect? Ghanaians must wakeup and kick these tribal bigots out of office, they cannot manage anything they only talk about Nana addo, foolish and dirty guys in office
MAHAMA SEND THIS TO YOU SMALL SMALL
for his knowledge and true pridections
too bad
NDC PROMISED A BETTER GHANA AGENDA. BUT WHAT WE SEE NOW IS BITTERNESS.
i think you are among those who voted them into power now you are crying
Oh brother Mahama(I hope l am allow to call you brother). My question is :did you reduce the price of petroleum products when the price was reduced in the world market? Try your best for our mother Ghana. I hope you are not w ...

ALL THE LOSERS THAT VOTED FOR NDC ARE NOW CRYING
This is good for the rich Ayigbe, fantis and pepefuo wont feel it. It is only the rest of Ghanaians that are suffering. Foolish people next year vote for dumsor and the NDC again
That is how tribal politics has shaped some poor brains. Did NDC get zero votes in Ashanti and Eastern regions? Why not address the right people than generalise everything. If u had said supporters of NDC, I would agree with ...

Caiphate it is the Foolish Ewe murderous bastard Rawlings who created tribalism in Ghana by Killing and exterminating akans foolish ewes will never stop praising him.look at how poor volta region is but they are blind.
hmmmmm
THE NDC HAS INCREASED FUEL PRICES DRASTICALLY, INSTEAD OF REDUCING IT DRASTICALLY AS THEY PROMISED. VOTE THESE NDC JOKERS, THIEVES AND INCOMPETENT LOT OUT IN 2016 BEFORE THE GHANA IS DESTROYED.
Without any controls the will form a cartel and unanimously decide how much they should sell for maximum profit. Do not be surprised if by the end of year we buy fuel at EVERY FILLING STATION for 30 cedis.
What happened when the price went down?Wicked souls
That exactly is the price to pay, if you vote stupidly without using your head. Next time collect a paltry GHC 10 again and vote like complete lunatics. You will suffer for another four years.
It's too bad for Ghanaians. Gov't can't reduce fuel prices when there is reduction in world market but can always increase when there is an increase in world market?
What have we done.Any stands up and does any tin to he's advantage. Shame on us.
NDC DUMSO PARTY ERA, SHAME UNTO YOUR DUMSO, SHAME UNTO YOUR INCREAMENT OF PEPROL, SHAME UNTO YOUR HARDSHIP ERA AND THE KIND OF BAD TREATMENT YOU ARE TAKEN GHANAIANS THROUGH
Look Ghanaians are doomed.If you not chase these rulers out,you have no chance.You guys are not smart enough to bite.Manner will never fall from heaven if you do not help yourselves.
They are selling above 4% then!
When fuel prices fell like crazy, what happened?. But today there is a slight increase in world oil prices and these thieves are quick to increase the price of petrol.
Not only should this govt be voted out next year, they ...

Peace is not jxt a mere absence of war but the presence of a better live. Are we enjoying peace with this kind of governance. NDC as a political party should be very careful or else ........................
I think this move will ensure fair play in the market as the market will regulate itself by market forces there by benefiting final consume.
What do you mean by the market will regulate itself? Did the market regulate itself when price of crude oil fell more than 70 percent?
There is no market regulation in Ghana but government manipulation. Market regulation ...

THE SPIRIT OF JUNE 4TH 1979 REVOLUTION IS TOTALLY DEAD BECAUSE MAHAMA LED NDC HAS LOOTED THE COFFERS OF THE NATION. NOW IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE BLOOD OF GEN.I.K.ACHAMPONG AND THE OTHERS WHO WERE EXECUTED ARE INNOCENT.
THE OIL DESCOVERY HAS BEEN THE PERSONAL PROPERTY OF NDC CRIMINALS. EVEN GOING TO 'IMF' TESTIFIES.
Nobody should complain, when people do not reason but only hide behind tribe to vote, just look at the way the ewes vote, they are one tribe I cannot understand,
Yaw you are a foolishman. When Kuffour your Ashanti kinsman came on the throne how much was the price of fuel, was it not 64 pesewas. Didn't he increase it to 30 CEDI's before even the was an international price change? And s ...

This is the price you pay for voting for the tieves ndc lead by the dead goat mahama.2016 think before you vote ok?
deregulation of peroleum prices is not the way to go. Given that demand for fuel is pretty inelastic, any increase in price will increace total expenditure to the consumer and increase total revenue for the government and oil ...
