So when did an un - disbursed public fund constitute " stolen" " missing"? Isn't this a clear case of sensationalism by the daily guide? Isn't this an alarmist propaganda to incense us against our government? The MP must be caution and told to always verify for facts before they jump and shout "Wolf". I am happy we point out inconsistencies in the administration, accounts of state and private partnership orgs with the state but to bad mouth the government isn't a good option. Mere politics wouldn't win NPP the elections but I bet ya, they can try it. I am not voting for NDC nor am I interested for NPP to come to power either, simply because they are all THIEVES.

AUTHOR: MARTIN A.B.K. AMIDU....

It would appear that those in control of the NDC, for the time being, were bent on excluding other bona fide members of the Party who may wish to lay democratic claims to who becomes the next flag bearer of the Party by excluding them even before the mortal remains of the demised President were interred. It is also symptomatic of how political party elites in Ghana and Africa worm their way into the confidences of persons perceived as likely to ascend to power positions for purposes of eventual personal economic gain at the expense of the generality of the mass of Party members and the Nation which every President swears to serve under the Constitution

AUTHOR : SULE******
.............It seems the NDC gov't is running against time to send Ghana into the pits and it is extremely worrying, very, very worrying that, such a magnitude of ineptness, incompetence, recklessness and corruption can be brought to bear on our governance structures in such a crass manner. This Fortiz/Merchant bank deal deal from all indications is putrid, it stinks to the high heavens and nothing can justify such an atrocious deal, when Ghanaian taxpayers, from all indications are not getting any VALUE FOR MONEY in this stinking deal. Omane Boamah, MD should seek to explain why an equity firm which cannot even boast of the asset base to even acquire a non-financial banking license, should be made to take on this onerous task of not even a merger, but a full complete acquisition of Merchant bank, when Ghanaian taxpayers, have been offered far, far better VALUE FOR MONEY propositions from identifiable bodies with a portfolio of assets eclipsing over 100 billion dollars? It is indeed mindboggling the level of impunity and recklessness which has been unleashed on the affairs on governance by this NDC gov't. Ghana indeed deserves better than this recklessness which is permeating all facets of governance in this country. It's awfully pathetic.

the voltarians are not fools. you know. they vote for ndc even if ndc feed them with shit because they have successfully used their nyebro, primitive tribalism to dominated ghana. despite the presence of other ethnic groups in ghana, over 50% of our soldiers and police are trokosi/voltarians and the commanders of all our infantry battalions are ewe/trokosis. majority of vra workers are trokosi/voltarians. this primitive imbalance in favour of these trokosi/voltarians was introduced into our system by that lebanese bastard son of a prostitute jj rawlings so, why won't they vote ndc.

You certainly sound and read like a sour grape and you are indeed. The People from the Volta region just happen to be highly educated and has always taken their studies seriously. So to be pontificating here of their successes and availability in all spheres of Ghanaian state and civil services sectors is neither sensible nor civil of a citizen of Ghana.

one thing is for sure, and that is, they the Ewes don't cheat when they go to school, they really study, and so do the Northerners as well, they don't cheat. Others do cheat and even just travel to America and stay for some few years and then return to Ghana with fake certs and degrees that they are this and that.

Hating Ewes wouldn't help anyone, I think we should rather learn how to use their consistency of sticking to one thing and succeeding as a yard stick to improve the way we gain results as a people together. Stop insulting and be civil because with you can never be better than the Ewes I know and have met. They are smart, posh, polished and articulate in the Queens language and if it comes to faithfulness, you can trust them, unlike our other cousins…LOL!

Where is the bad mouthing in this? The MP is doing what they're supposed to be doing but have consistently failed in This regard. This is not alarmist propaganda nor sensationalism. Aren't you happy that for once someone in that House is trying to hold the government's feet to the fire on fiscal responsibility? 2016 is an election year and the NDC has already promised to keep their spending in check. What's wrong with a parliamentarian reminding the administration of the promise they made to the people only recently? If you truly love your country then you'd be interested in how each cedi is spent on your behalf. What the MP is saying is worth investigating because we're too familiar with politicians promising one thing and ending up doing another to simply ignore this timely warning. Maybe the NDC promise to be fiscally responsible in an election year was just meant to throw dust in the eyes of the public.

It is so sad that an MP will think and talk in this childish way. When money is not fully disbursed that is wrong doing? It is pitiful this can come from an MP. And you can see his fellow uneducated audience dancing along.

Did you read the story well?
1.The students are already in school and the schools need the money to run.
2. The money is not for the government
3. it is not that a portion of the students have had theirs disbursed while others are waiting for their turn.The disbursed amount covers all the students. So the question is why disburse part of the money when you have the whole amount in your hands??
This is not about NPP or NDC, this is about us, this is about our future, this is about our children. Let us try to help our country. The little that we can do today will help posterity tomorrow.

Dead and rotten goat president Mahama is too corrupt and incompetent to be a president of a nation. In his own book he stated clearly that he can't think for himself. How can Ghanaians allows such a person become our president. It's about time Ghanaians rise up against these criminals in politics. The Ndc incompetent administration are very smart THIEVES . They knows how to create, loot and share,and steal the mandate of the electorate. Shine your eyes Ghanaians. Vote wisely next time and protect your votes. God bless Ghana.

An appropriation bill will be passed after the budget for 2016 has been accepted by parliament. Govt is then authorised to spend allocations in the budget. However to keep govt machinery running a provisional estimate expenditure is provided the govt by parliament. This provisional expenditure is a percentage of the actual estimate that will be captured and approved by parliament. Currently not all 1st year students have been placed in SHS. When the exercise is complete that is when the actual expenditure on fees for day students will be known and any questions arising therefrom can be asked. At this juncture would it not be too early to be concluding the way our honorable MP and other commentators have done? In any case budgets are always linked to expected income and so should revenue fall short, there is no way any institution can meet its expenditure obligations. The honorable MP has unfettered access to the Monasteries of Finance and Education and could have done some enquiries from them to enrich his contributions on the budget. That way he would have helped Ghanaians form their conclusions. Our MPs should always focus on offering good analysis of issues so together with populace, we help govts chart a course all Ghanaians want.

Exactly 1 year ago, what has become of this issue? Someone is speaking against the MP that he was crying wolf, without speaking to the essence of the matter. He refuses to reason. Basic math teaches that if you are given 18 and you use up 12, you'll be left with 6... Let's put away partisanship and question our leaders when certain inconsistencies pop up

As he is talking about badmouthing, he forgets that this same government badmouthed the Free SHS implementation by the NPP, but came in to implement it, and they ended up messing it. Hmmm...
