Yaa Yaa, you are right. NDC will always wait for NPP to "lie" before they come out with figures which they only have. They should be proactive rather than defensive.

If NDC communicators can say the former NDC finance minister lied to the world bank in 2009 that former president Kufuor left a robust and vibrant economy then NDC can lie to anybody just to get what dey want. From the days of Fifi Kwetey and Victor Smith in opposition fed Ghanaians with lies to win power. So today if they claim Bawumia is a liar then he must have learnt it from the best liars in town which is the current NDC leadership who have no class, no shame and no conscience.

SOURCE: NPP COMM.------
Dr. Bawumia pointed out that the NDC had increased Ghana’s debt in seven years by GHC90 billion, from GHC9.5 billion at the end of 2009 to some GHC99 billion currently; an equivalent of some 37 billion dollars at the time of borrowing.
“First, If you sum the cost of all the loan financed projects listed in the green book (even including those with artistic impressions, it is less than $7 billion. Meanwhile, the government has borrowed the equivalent of $37 billion so where is the rest of the money? Indeed, given the resources at its disposal one should expect at least four times the quantum of investment that the NDC claims to have undertaken”, Dr. Bawumia said, as he began listing the six reasons.
Dr. Bawumia proceeded to list a number of things the over 30billion dollars from borrowing the NDC cannot account for, could have done, which proves that contrary to the claims, the NDC has done a bad job at giving Ghanaians their due after undertaking unprecedented borrowing in the last seven years.

Author:-FACT.....
There are issues that are indefensible and to attempt to defend such things is plain wrong. In an attempt by John Mahama to shore up his dwindling image from his failed leadership, the humiliation and embarrassment he has suffered has actually made it worse for his image.
For journalists to be restrained in their normal course of duty to the point of violence, is not only revolting, it is reprehensible and smacks of a country with Kim Jong Un tendencies.
The whole episode from a desperate leader looking for validity, to the boycott by the Scottish MPs, to the restraining of the journalist, was an unprecedented moment of humiliation and embarrassment.
There was nothing proper and right about this whole debacle and it is most unfortunate.

Everybody knows that Bawumia is a pathological liar whose main mission is to discredit government's achievements and lie about president Mahama. His recent comment that the country's total debt stock is 37 billion dollars clearly shows that he is a big time liar because the total debt stock of the country is 24 billion dollars hence it doesnt make sense to claim that the NDC has borrowed 37 billion within 7 years. Besides, every loan that the NDC government has borrowed been used for developmental projects such as construction of roads, building of schools and hospitals among others.

The NDC government is a very honest government who always tell the good people of Ghana the truth. Statistics clearly shows that Ghana's debt since Nkrumah's regime is 24 billion US dollars. So for the NPP to claim that the country's debts stock is 37 billion US dollars, its nothing but a sheer propaganda to score cheap political points. Bawumia is learning the lies from his boss Nana Akufo Addo who on several occasion has peddled falsehood against the president. a classical example is the ridge expansion hospital project which he lied that the cost of the project was bloated.

Ato Forson and others who question Dr. Bawumia quoted figures, are either not honest or do not understand the issue at stake. Dr. Bawumia talked about total monies borrowed, he did not talk about Ghana's debt stock. The two, total monies borrowed and Ghana's debt stock, are different. Therefore, those who tag Dr. Bawumia as a lier on account of this issue, are either dishonest in their commentaries or did not read the subject matter in the first place. If the latter is true it goes to prove another of the gentleman's prophesies. This fellows just don't read. Ato Forson, are you one of those characters?

Oh YAA-YAA, basic economics underscores the fact that liberalized economies invariably cannot control prices of commodities on the world market. The devaluation of the Ghana cedi was affected by
sharp declines in World Market Prices of our major export commodities such as cocoa, gold
among others.
The procurement law to a large extent allows for sole sourcing of some contracts hence the onus lies on the minority (NPP et al) to play their gate keeping role all in the bid to ensure we get value for money. In the same vei, if you have ample evidence that the current administration is engaged in any wrong doing, kindly ask the the minority in parliament (NPP Mps) to file a motion of recession or you can also seek redress at the courts.

Politics is about equitable distribution of resources and not the lies bawumia keeps peddling.
Discerning Ghanaians know Ghana's total debt stock since the era of Kwame Nkrumah is $24 billion dollars. It certainly makes no mathematical sense for the government to borrow more than the total debt stock of the country hence the intellectual dishonesty bawmia engages in is a dent on his CV and not the good books of Ghana.
Moreover, in 2015 the syndicated loan for cocoa purchases yielded US$1.8 billion which in turn reduced the pressure on the cedi.
Thus, this is the reason why Forbes-ranked billionaire, Mark Stevens who owns TREVO,said the cedi stability of Ghana’s denomination is good reason to invest in the economy.
bawumia must go back and revise his economics and maths notes.

Which lies? President Mahama and his administration have got nothing to hide.
The good people of Ghana know that Ghana's total debt stock since the era of Kwame Nkrumah is $24 billion dollars.
In all humility, bawumia's assertions defies simple logic since it makes no mathematical sense for a government to borrow more than the total debt stock of the country.
The earlier bawumia gets in touch with reality and comes to terms with the fact that Ghanaians are not daft and can differentiate between the facts and the untruths he keeps peddling, the better because he is gradually turning into a laughing stock.

write to apologize to readers of the article: "Ghana's debt is $37.68 billion but not $24 billion.
It was wrongly calculated so anyone who came across it should forgive me, it was rather higher than that.
According to CIA website, Ghana's GDP in 2015 was $37.68 billion.
Ghana's pubic debt was 76% of the GDP. GDP means gross domestic products which also means all that Ghana produced and sold within the country in 2015.
Ghana's external debt is $17.2 billion
Therefore if the public debt is 76% of GDP which was $37.68 billion in 2015, calculations would give us something around $27.5 billion as public debt. If we add up the public and external debts, they would give us about $44.7 billion as our country' total debt as at today.
If I am wrong, then CIA is also wrong so please visit the website and do your own calculations.
If this information which has been written on CIA library is inaccurate, then the government should contact them to remove it.
God bless us.

The debt stock of Ghana as at September, 2015, stood at GH¢92,161.84 million (US$24,285.07). This was made up of GH¢54,488.26 million (US$14,357.91million) for external debt and GH¢37,673.58 million ($9,927.16 million) for domestic debt. These are the facts.

He is a fine gentleman but his work ethics are questionable. He is doing a lot of damage to the NPP brand through the vague and inconclusive untruths he keeps peddling.
Under the leadership of the NDC and the current finance minister seth terkper investor confidence in Ghana
continues to grow as a result of
measures introduced to stabilize the
economy. In essence, data from the Ghana Investment Promotion Center show that in 2014, inflows from foreign direct investment stood at US$3.57 billion from 184 projects.
In effect, a clear indication that the NDC govt need not take fiscal advice from bawumia.

The youth of the NDC will continue to stand up for Ghana, defend it and trumpet the good works of president Mahama such as the expansion of Tema Port,expansion of Takoradi Port, expansion of Tamale and Kumasi Airports,Atuabo Gas plant, exploration of major oil blocs, namely: Ten, Gye Nyame, and the Volta Basin,construction of brand new Atuabo Free Port among others.
However, if you have ample evience which implicates any NDC youth of any wrong doing, kindly report at the nearest police station or seek redress at the courts.

The greatest projlem of the NDC government is Dr. Bawumia, the great grandson of Yaa Asantewa and Eno Ghana. This golden boy is too much for the liars. They only speak the truth as a slip of tongue. Who can help them this time! They are finished forever. Bawumia speaks and they get dysentery; he comes out with figures and they see themselves Ebolaland. His addresses are positive signs of HIV for them. This boy will kill them preko pe! Stop lying to enjoy your loot then. Bawumia is the Elijah of our days against Mahamah, Ahab of our era. NDC what again! Tell us!.

Bawumia will forever be older than you (Ato Forson) so if you are choosing your words for Bawumia, you should be mindful of the fact that he is older than you, learned than you and a step ahead you in politics. So at least respect him for that. Or else the younger generation will pay you back. For if you hit a ball to a wall it will surely bounce back to you.

From 1.2 ghc to the ddollar in 2008 the dollar is now 4.0 ghc....... Such gargantuan fall simple indicates that ndc is extravagant and doesn't even have any idea of the consequences of their criminal extravagance.
Yaa Yaa, you are right. NDC will always wait for NPP to "lie" before they come out with figures which they only have. They should be proactive rather than defensive.
the figures are in the budget statement read to Parliament and available for all to peruse. Bawumia is intelligent, he knows Ghanaian do not like reading and are gullible to take anything he says. the fact? Truth prevails.
If NDC communicators can say the former NDC finance minister lied to the world bank in 2009 that former president Kufuor left a robust and vibrant economy then NDC can lie to anybody just to get what dey want. From the days o ...
