Mr NDC, from day one of the EC's assumption of duty, she has exhibited too much ignorance of the duty of a disinterested public figure, and unfortunately no one expresses concern about it.

The inefficiency of the EC is exhibited barely in every way, thought, body language and how she puts the message to the electorate. This manifests the situation prevailing in every sphere of the country, Ghana.

Any wonder the economy is in unimaginable distress, dire strait and decay, and why corruption is very prevalent and acutely high, while the ruling government takes a pretentious posture?

For the avoidance of any doubt on what I impute, the current Electoral Commissioner is very administratively incompetent for the position she occupies.

The European Union members responsibility is to seek the welfare of its citizens by creating jobs, providing education, health care and other benefits to its citizens.

Now our begging and no respect for ourselves have reached its apex by begging European Union(EU) to create jobs for Africans to stem the tide of migration.

This is a disgrace to Ghana for our President to ask another President from a different country to create jobs for your citizens. President Manama is a shameful man.

George, this has nothing to do with tribe. The president has placed embargo on employment since he took office. If he ask for EU to help create jobs for Ghanaians, the question we have to ask is how? Is it their duty or it is the duty of the one we elected to create jobs? If he can't help us then he should step aside and let someone else take over. That's why we stand in line to vote.

Let Ghanaians teach John Mahama and his notorious NDC a lesson. John Mahama can not take Ghanaians for any unwanted ride. What was this stupid John Mahama thinking when he and his corrupt NDC decided to accept these two vicious killers in Ghana. John Mahama should return whatever monetary incentives he received from the United States government together with their rotten gabbage (those two vicious killers).

Ghanaians in the United States should demonstrate to show their anger against Obama administration. What a hell was Obama thinking that he sent these two vicious Islamic killers to Ghana.Likewise, Ghanaians in Ghana should demonstrate to protest against these two killers in Ghana.

Islamic terrorists will take advantage to visit these two animals on pretext that they are visiting their family members We have a stupid President called John Mahama who will allow all Islamic terrorists to visit these two vicious killers.

Ghanaians must stand on their grounds for not allowing these Islamic killers to live in Ghana. If family members can visit them, then why didn't the United States release them to their family members? Ghana is not part of any Arab country. They should be packed and sent to their country.

Are these the same NDC people who are trying to confuse themselves and others about being Nkrumahists? The great Osagyefo is tumbling over in his grave at the sight and sound of these neo-colonialist politicians that now rule beautiful Ghana.

This manner of a man sounds like a typical Ghanaian who expects someone else to do for him what he should be doing for himself, NDC &NPP = BEG BEG BEG BEG BEG no shame in their game.

When the North Atlantic Terrorist Organization was bombing Libya, who was a member of the African Union, African leaders remained quiet except President Mugabe, now instead of instead of holding the mad bombers responsible for the problems that they've caused in Libya and demanding reparations, the man is begging when he should be demanding accountability.

Herein lies the vast difference between Nkrumahist ideology and backward ever NDC & NPP neocolonial whatever. NDC could never EVER be an Nkrumahist party, NEVER EVER!

Each EU country have their own challenges with Youth unemployment. As the head of Ghana, you need to strategise with your team to create a conducive atmosphere for Ghanaian entrepreneurs to create jobs for the Ghanaian youth. No development partner will come and do this for us in GH. That is why you were given the opportunity to do so in 2012? Have you lived to the expectation to deserve a second term. Begging makes a person loose his dignity and confidence, moreover becoming a "slave" to the lender. There is enough resources in Ghana to create jobs, without begging anyone. Have you been faithful to God and Ghanaians in the managing of the state's resources? Please reflect and advise yourself JDM. Please spare us the embarrassment. Thank you.

"President John Dramani Mahama has appealed to the European Union (EU) to HELP create jobs for the youth in Africa, to reduce the surge of Africans migrating to Europe."

The president asked for help to create jobs for African youth.

I don't understand why the key word HELP was deliberately left out of the headline, which gave the impression that Mahama asked the Italian PM and the EU to create jobs for African youth.

The cynicism, political maneuverings, and deliberate lies must stop.

IS IT TRUE, MAHAMA IS REPEATING THE SAME MISTAKE THE ITALIAN PRIME MINISTER SAID TO HIM.VERY DOUBTFUL.

IT IS AT THE PRIVATE SECTOR THAT A TRUE MARKET SYSTEM WORKS.

THE WORLD HAS CHANGED SINCE 1945; AND WE ARE ALSO OBLIGED TO MOVE WITH THE TIDES.
