its not a matter of Ghanaian not learning. It is the duty of the ministers to follow the President to brief the President more on the project been commissioned. IF its schools, the education minister follows the president to brief him more on the information he needs and that applies to every minister as well

Mr Pratt thank you for the coment. Sadly enough heads of medical facilities who are supposed to sit and direct the affairs of their institutions have become foot soldiers and following the Presidente even to shut. Stupid

These so-called projects are from loans that all Ghanaians and their children have to pay. Is he accounting for the highly inflated projects in which 70% of the the money is pocketed by family and friends? Why does he behave as if it is NDC money? All debts must be paid and there is no hope for repayment with the crippled economy.

So what,loans Ghanaian have to pay and so what,what about the loans NPP contracted and pocketed as compare to the NDC using them on projects?

Ask Kufour if he and his government can account for the $500m Millenium grant he got from the US government apart from the N1 road which was les than a quarter of the money he got.
Gives us a break with your crap.

As for Kwesi Pratt,he does not know what he was talking about. How can ministers who are responsible for these projects not travel with the president to showcase what their ministries have accomplished,if ministers cannot accompany the president who should follow him,Kwesi Pratt?

After depositing the EC crazy logo at Ankaful, Pratt found out that the some of the President's Ministers were following him on his Demonic Accounting Tour. Pratt made it clear that this was a no no, and that it must stop. Pratt made it known that only Jesus could have his Apostles follow him around, and President Mahama is no Jesus.

Well said. If the President sits at he Flagstaff and fails to appear in the various regions, the NPP will be quick to say the President does not care to even go before the people because he has nothing good to tell them.

Hey, Uncle Kwesi! Stop pretending! Ghanaians know you are a part of the CREATE, LOOT AND SHARE NDC brigade. You have seen the wind change blowing so you have started to 'trade places'. You did the same thing when Kuffour was about to come to power only to claim later that yours was among the voices that opposed Jerry Rawlings' corrupt government! You can't fool anyone!

Kwesi Pratt in the article said he was in support of the work of President Mahama and he hasn't change yet. I dont actually know what Ghanaians wants from the government; the president has taken this precious time to account to the people what he has used the taxes for and some are busy requesting for cost. What happens when you are given the money and we dont have a good hospital and roads to transact our business profitably. We need to think outside the box

One day an insurance salesman knocked on a door. A little boy
answered the door and the gentleman asked if his mother was home.
The little boy said "No, she is at the whore house."
The bright salesman asked if she was a prostitute, and the little
boy replied, "No, she is a substitute. She only works Wednesdays
and Fridays during the rush."
The salesman said, "Well I'll be a son-of-a-bitch."
The little boy said, "Well, I'm one too, but I don't go around
knocking on doors telling folks."

KWESI PRATT IS LIKE THE INSURANCE SALESMAN WHO DOES NOT MIND HIS BUSINESS.

The ministers are following because the NDC is using our money to campaign. Why aren't they being stopped by the President who employed them? Why do we behave like ostriches. Kwesi you cannot say you don't see what everybody sees. Why should commissioning of public projects be a party preserve. Why? Don't think we are idiots.

Kwesi konkonsa the trickster shut up there. I don't know why you are referred to as an ace journalist because there is nothing you do that makes you exceptional. All you do with your failed insight paper is to tell lies and attack opponents of the government of the day in return for favours. It's only in Africa where an opportunist like you will be taken serious in politics. Buulu with sharp teeth.

The problem is that it is not only minsters but heads of departments so during the period all activities are at a standstill. The regional ministers and the regional heads should be able to handle these visits. Just calculate the cost of fuel,accommodation , food and others which the departments and agencies have to take out of their meagre budgetary allocations.

When the president visited accident victims in Kintampo we saw chain of ministers walking side by side when the president was supposed to fire the sector minister and the director of metro mass transit company,not only that,the last may disaster that took over 200 lives,again the regional and sector ministers were all there displaying courage but pretense on tv and boldly go to the bank at the each of each moth to recieve salary.There nothing or a blueprint justifying why they should be there,they only use this occasions to show their those under them how close they re with the president and use that to extort money from them.In most of this visits it's the president who speaks and explain,so if they re relevant as Omane Boamah want to us believe,why re they not speaking?

Ignorant Ghanaian Cabinet Ministers and their penchant for displacement activities because of incompetence and lack of self direction. Just follow the leader to sing his Master's voice! What are the Regional Ministers and District Chief Executives for if they cannot accompany or support the President on these tours which achieve nothing but political charade to glorify the incumbent with the hope of achieving political advantage?

Mr.Pratt, your assertion that Ministers who follow Mahama on his regional tours dubbed "accounting to the people tour" as waste of time and needless is misplace characterization. The truth is, it is misuse of public funds and you should have called it like it is. Your characterization of it is lame and your attempt to give Mahama and his NDC cover is quite obvious to us. Mr. Pratt, the people knows your politics, so, don't try to fool us. It is stupid of you to even
attempt to throw dust into our eyes. After all, we know well that you are in the deep pockets of Mahama

Ministers must stop following Mahama on regional tours – Pratt
