When you try to start something in Ghana, they make it almost impossible with illegal demands enforced by temporary regulations.Meanwhile they bend over backwards to accommodate foreigners.After a three year effort to start a processing plant in Ghana failed, I left and opened a shop in the states.The profit margin is more than 100%more than what I would have got in Ghana but home is home so I really wanted to do it at home.

We are not angry with genuine hard working people like you, we are talking about millionaire "businessmen" and women(the caliber of Woyome) and others.

They are the thieves who import but pay little or no tax, agents of corrupt politicians, secure gov lucrative contracts but have no tools and skills for the job, etc. These are the nation wreckers that are our enemies.

My worry is that: Why do we allow few thieves(leaders) to walk over the rest of us same way traditional leaders walked over our ancestors and even sold some of them into slavery?

Tell Peter Yorke (Ndoum) to be careful because there are people who know him inside out.

Let me just drop one hint: we know how he fraudulently cheated the state at State Enterprises Corporation (SEC) by falsely representing that he was an American diplomat and so not subject tax in Ghana. Shame to the SEC officials though, but Ndoum was a gargantuan pen robber at SEC.

If Ndoum misbehave I will open his page as a Minister under Kufuor, the Panama Papers revealed thief.

You get small money then you want to be president of Ghana. Why not concentrate on what you do best, as a businessman? May be you stole most of your money from politics, that's why you want to go back and get more.

Kwasi Nduom is right is saying successfully people are run down in Ghana. However it it is not only successfully business people who are the targets of Ghanaians but anyone who is successful or perceived to be successful. The phenomena comes from envy and it is a world wide phenomenon. There is something called the "politics of envy" in the western countries, in which politicians use successful people as a target in getting the less successful people in a community to vilify. In some cases, the methods which a successful person has used to acquire wealth lends credence to the vilification.

Well said Dr. This is not an allegation. It's the fact about Ghanaians. We need to change. Furthermore those who have been entrusted with people's private business should learn to be trustworthy. Dus why the Lebanese, the Chinese etc wouldn't allow Ghanaian to be close to the top management of their companies. Mostly it seems to be wise to invest in T bills and fixed deposits than to use your savings and loans taken to do business in Ghana. Because of the attitude of the Ghanaian worker

How many business men and women can be counted as doing enough to help save this God-forsaken, corrupt country from poverty. Ghana has an abundance of individual rich people ready to invest in foreign assets abroad, most of the so-called wealthy business persons in Ghana to-day have greater portions of their investments abroad anyway. No body in Ghana currently has time to rundown the so-called successful, selfish business persons. What has being successful in business got to do with the day to day concerns of the average Ghanaian people on the street, determined to find out where their next daily bread can be found. Who has time for your success in business to run it down, Mr Nduom?

Fact is ,many of these thugs with all kinds of names can't even manage their own families but have the gut to spew hot air. Pity are those whose chances are based on political hand outs.

Dr.Ndum, you see, what you are saying is true but one does not be in bed with Kufour's 8yrs corropt regime to loot tax payers cash to hide behind the name of Great osagyfo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's visionary CPP party to be president to amass wealth.You are a Great hypocrite.CPP gave you a mandate,thinking that if you could not use your I'll gotten cash from Npp to lead CPP to the Flagstaff House,you MUST NOT extinguish the smouldering light of CPP,Kept by Late Professor Hagan of Blessesed memory,but what did you do? Irresponsible childish break away with a funny PPP.In fact 2016 would have seen CPP in the Flagstaff House but because of you Ndum and Abu Sakara,all of you appeared from no where to take advantage the poor financial status of beloved CPP and rendered it to perpetual opposition.It is my prayer and dream to see prof. Akosa,flagbearer,Samoa Nkrumah, running mate,Prof.Delle, Chairman,Green street,campaign manager,the current communication director in his post,Lawyer Akwetey general secretary. For merger of PNC,pick Bernard Monah,Dr .Gyeder,and more than 4 others from PNC in terms of regional balance to form the merger EXECUTIVES and I tell you NDC and unpatriotic Npp will be in opposition so that Nkrumah Liman's vision will be accomplished to raise the image of Ghanaians and give hope to Ghana's future generations.Where are Akosa,Samoa,Dr Gyeder,Bernard Monah,Lawyer Akwetey and the rest to start the match for us to display civil political skills.

Not true, Dr. Nduom. Prior to starting your businesses in Ghana, you were a successful accountant with no businesses. Once you started your businesses in Ghana, it took the support of Ghanaians to make your businesses the successes that they're today. Thank Ghanaians for their support instead of sounding like a confused Pastor Otabil. Yes, there are those in this world who will tear down others when they see them becoming successful, but most people will not behave that way.

People like me continued to pay taxes to build the roads that you continued to drive on. So stop behaving as if you're a self made man. Like many Ghanaian businesses ( Smartys etc.) you became rich at our expense.

If I earn 500,000 without paying any taxes I too can become a successful businessman and boast about it.

In fact I admire people like you for your tenacity in sticking out with your businesses in Ghana. Most of the comments above testify to your statement.
I was a victim of such attacks and vilifhications when I relocated to Ghana in 1995 to set up a business. I was frustrated, experienced bottlenecks within the bureaucratic system from civil servants as well as some of my employees who stole from me including my own relatives. Eventually after 5 years of this debacle I returned to the uk. Am doing quite well here- although am a foreigner, I have been able to set up a thriving business here. My experiences in Ghana have taught me a bitter lesson and I have lost total trust in my motherland. I only come down for holidays. Am not the only one - some of my colleagues have suffered the same fate and are now back to the uk. It's such a shame; we keep hearing the government especially the Ghana High Commission encouraging us to go back home to set up businesses and contribute to the betterment of Ghana but the reality on the ground is different.
I admire the likes of Nduom who stick it out amidst this endemic pull me down of our countrymen.

A segment of the Ghanaian pupolation loves to be poor so they run down succesful people.In one way or the other that is what the 1979 and 1981 stupid revolution made us to belief.we all saw how we joined lines to buy neighbours goods at control prices. We evev bought kontomire at control prices and we were happy.if you had two water closets in your home you were a thief because we did not understand how you managed to have that.what were we thinking at that time. It has stuck with us from that time to now and for some people when they see that some body has money it is either the person is arrogant or it is drug money.The accepted perception is that the Ghanaia should be timid and poor. Most Ghanaians see people who are timid as gentle and succesdful ones as thieves but hey there are good business men out there who work hard. Please come out of the box and begin to think yoursel out of the box. You will do well embrace success in your life.
