AUTHOR: CLOSE OBSERVER-------- Stupid people are dominating our leadership positions. NDC does not believe that Ghanaians are suffering. Ghanaians will therefore not see the end of their problems until the USELESS NDC government is voted out in 2016. JOHN MAHAMA DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HE IS DOING AT THE PRESIDENCY. HE IS JUST CELEBRATING HIS POSITION LIKE AN AFRICAN MOVIE ACTOR. VOTE HIM AND HIS MEDIOCRE NDC GOVERNMENT OUT IN 2016. NDC NOW WANT MONEY FOR THEIR DIRTY POLITICAL CAMPAIGN, HENCE THE PRICE HIKE

Dr. Bawumia is strictly for peace but when he speaks, NDC is for war. In the past, every utterance from Dr. Bawumia stands the chance to distort the entire NDC party.

Breaking News

NDC is attempting to be employing as many Ghanaian youth as possible but that is all fake.
First they attempt to be employing young recruits into the police officer job. Then John Mahama hurriedly opens the sugar factory in Komenda attempting to be employing hundreds of thousands of the jobless without thinking about the raw materials being, sugarcane to feed the factory. “Criminals with small minds”…
The fact of the matter is, NDC is doing everything to impose jon Mahama on us by all means because they know that most of them if not all of them will go to jail as soon as we have a new and shrewd president who is wise and incorruptible.
Now their main intention is to get as many names as possible and infuse them onto the voter’s register so that they can use that numbers to steal votes for the jon Mahama, the Ali Baba and his 40 thieves.
We must all be mindful because jon mahama has spent so much money to import arms into the country so that they will use them to fight as soon as they lose the battle. Even as most of his missionaries have been caught and imprisoned in places like the United States of America, they will not let I dare not wait on I would. Shine your eyes Ghanaians and make sure your identity is not used by a foreigner to vote for jon Mahama.

Now, it seems nothing could help the NPP to gain power. Mahama has proven that he has a superior development and governance plans. Whilst Nana Akuffo Addo wants ride on emotions, Dr. Bawumia is proving what he knows best - lie, lie, and lie. Throw some muds hoping some will stick.

They can respond as much as they like, the bottom line is most Ghanaian youth trust and believe Bawumia. Who is Ato Forson? A whole deputy of finance minister who was not even a qualified accountant could not get a proper accountant job in the UK and claimed to be doing his own business in the UK! Such people running the Ghanaian economy and we are suprised the economy is belly up? Atoo Forson is not smart enough to counter Bawumia, he knows Bawumia is right and won't DARE challenge him. The youth now are intelligent and know the difference between the two. Volta are waking up to the truth. Ghana will work again when these incompetent lot are kicked out. No wonder the president said a lot of people he invited to work in his administration turned him down. Have you asked yourself why??

Corney, tell NDC to come out with cost cutting measures because I think that will help our fragile economy than this "tax and spend" nonsense going on. Look, go around the country including the Volta region and ask them how they feel about endless taxes being imposed on them by this government that is so dumb and you will hear their grumblings.

Who is Ato Forson? ,The deputy finance minister's position was given to him on political basis and not based on what they guy knows.

When Mahama's government came into office, Bawumia warned them about their reckless spending and what was the response from your party supporters? In the end what did he see? If this government can act that reckless and invite the IMF, what was Ato Forson doing as a deputy finance minister? Ato Forson and his boss Seth Terkper are clueless. They never come out any cost cutting measure but rather tax and spend liberals who are bent on destroying our fragile economy.

Keep dreaming, afterall it is not a crime to dream. But whether your dreams will come true is another matter. Tweaa, who will make that terrible mistake and vote for these 'all die be die' 419 people! They are desperate for power because their pockets are all dried up after squandering the booty they acquired during Prez John Kufuor's NPP era from 2000-2008! So they are using all sorts of tricks, including lies and character assassination, in their desperate attempt to fool unsuspecting Ghanaians to vote for them! So everyone should know these liars! They have NOTHING good to offer Ghana! They are just interested in looting the national coffers, just as they attempted to steal their party funds by opening secret bank accounts to siphon such money. Thanks to Paul Afoko who uncovered their evil 419 scheme! So Ghanaians beware of these wolves and hyenas!

Hon Ato Forson, please don't compare yourself to Dr Bawumia. Ato , when you were pursuing your ACCA in the UK your only working experience in the field of accountancy was the security company you worked with even you weren't an Accountant there. No working experience so please stop your propaganda. Even your own Deputy Gen Secretary of your party NDC has taken a swipe at the Finance Minister's proposal to tax pensions. Ato you just write simple thesis on accountancy to Afghanistan and we shall ask them to honour you with Phd. Opportunist!!!

Bawumia's "Voodoo" Economic Analysis adopted by Kuffour is resposible for the economic challenges facing the country now.

All those lambasting Ato for saying the obvious are pathetic NPP supporters whose brains have deserted them for animal brains such that they behave like a pack of wolves each time somebody criticizes their Party. The fact that some of you are characterizing him as, "Dumb accountant, unqualified accountant, failed accountant, South University graduate, failed BECE etc, etc" show your envy about this young Chartered Account. Yes, he may have worked as a "protection master" for the London Underground as a student to supplement what he was receiving from home because unlike your Flagbearer who flunked all his exams except for the 3rd class degree Legon threw at him, and who is the only lawyer in the whole world without a classmate and certificate, Ato's parents aren't rich. Ghanaian and other foreign students in Ato's position do it unless they're illicit drug dealers or are content with wiping whitepeople's "behind"--like most of you who organized the failed demonstrations abroad against the President do. Dr. Nduom for example, bagged groceries. Unlike you empty barrels however, Ato is quiet and unassuming. The fact that he is now joining the fray of what has become the staple of that academically dishonest economist with a spotty record doesn't make him any less knowledgeable. But I dare anybody to visit this young man’s constituency to see what this unassuming young man’s vision has transformed the lives of ordinary folks through the use of his Common Fund because of his common sense approach, personal integrity and British bulldog-tenacity at a time when majority of MPs use theirs as an extension of their personal income and/or use them frivolously.

The so called economic miracle under Kuffour for which praises are being showered on Bawumia as some whiz kid was really an economic disaster cushioned by the massive doses of foreign aid, most of which were even misapplied, showered on the administration as an act of faith in the country for transitioning into "Democracy" since the election-losing NDC had always been regarded in Western Capitals as an extension of PNDC and therefore undemocratically elected.

What government with alleged economists of international repute would think that removing four zeroes at the end of a currency appreciates the currency? For example, did goods costing ¢200,000 cost GH¢20 after the redenomination? Did items selling for ¢200 sell for GH¢0.02 or two pesewas after the redenomination? Certainly no. Prices and costs shot up. If this wasn't inflation, then I don't know what it was. But, that’s what Bawumia did! And then to cushion themselves against this, Kuffour, Bawumia, and Kuffour's inner circle stole lots of the newly-minted currency. Finally, they camouflaged the extraordinarily weakened Cedi as a result of the measures above by supporting it with freed-up money as a result of some foreign debt forgiveness and the payment moratorium on majority of our foreign debts which should've gone into infrastructure development. The result? The bloated Cedi which at some point was even stronger than the US Dollar, made imports cheaper than their local counterparts. The cheaper imports spelt the demise of local industries because the locally manufactured goods weren't patronized enough. One of the industries that suffered the most was the livestock industry. As a result of which Ghanaians couldn’t afford fresh beef and chicken—and even plantain had to be imported from Ivory Coast. Kuffour's government even had the gall to import textile products from China for the corruption-riddled Ghana@50 celebrations at a time when Ghanaian textile factories were either laying off employees or closing down! That was NPP with Kuffour, Osafo Marfo and DOCTOR BAWUMIA! As if this wasn't enough, this Dream Team showed a total lack of understanding of the consequences of dumb economic policies in the present Global Economy on the BBC "Have Your Say" program when Kuffour gave unbelievably stupid reasons for not supporting local industries whereas if he was well informed, he would've known that the so called capitalist societies supported, and still support, local industries in one way or the other.

To hide the real costs of this misguided economic policy, Kuffour, at the behest of Bawumia and others, jettisoned a more reliable economic index replaced it with a less reliable one. The revised economic figures gave the country favorable ratings but like the Enron Corporation during the energy crises, the country was worse off. By the time the NDC assumed office, there was nothing in the kitty. So when the time came for the country to resume its external financial obligations, the NDC government struggled but pride prevented it from seeking the needed financial assistance earlier until the situation became untenable with the drop in commodity prices.

With the “about-face” financial assistance Mahama's administration has sought from abroad, it has embarked on infrastructure development reminiscent of Kwame Nkrumah’s days even though some myopic so-called opinion leaders including Bawumia and Rev Otabil are criticizing him for “mortgaging” our resources because this initiative isn't coming from their parties.

Internally, Kuffour presided over what has so far been the most corrupt administration in the nation's history. Huge sums of monies were paid locally and abroad for services and goods to non-existent companies fronted by NPP supporters. Of course, the goods and services were never supplied. Entitlement programs such as the NHIS and the School Feeding Program which were supposed to benefit ordinary folks also became conduits for siphoning funds to friends and families as government contributions were sometimes paid in cash and paper trails were either intentionally destroyed or vague information provided. It was also under Kuffour that “Ghost names” became a standard feature in public payrolls. One only has to read the Auditor-General's Reports for the eight years under NPP for one to gauge the enormity of the corruption. Kuffour made sure this Report wasn’t widely circulated for ordinary Ghanaians to see his thievery. Mahama has done the opposite. The Report is now available to ordinary Ghanaians to see things for themselves.

Mahama isn't perfect but he is doing far better by scrutinizing the public payroll and purging it of ghost names, exposing corruption and fighting it either administratively or using the courts.

In bilateral relations, Mahama has proved he can be trusted to seek the country's instead of personal interests unlike Kuffour who in one swoop ensured his cronies like Abel Edusei would benefit at the expense of the country as long as the COSMOS Agreement remains in place.

When people wax about the "Golden Age" under Kuffour when the New Cedi was equivalent to the US Dollar, I ask them to confirm if our economy was better than Canada’s because that was what it meant because the strength, and therefore the value of your currency, is determined by your economy. Of course they say no. Then I ask, “If Ghana’s economy didn’t come close to Canada’s (indeed it has never matched Canada’s) and the Canadian Dollar was less than the US Dollar, shouldn’t it follow that Ghana’s Cedi should be less than the Canadian Dollar and therefore the US Dollar? They agree but can’t explain how Kuffour and Team Bawumia pulled this off. When I explain how, they walk away with their tails between their legs like defeated dogs.

It is your type of loud but half-baked illiterates who're either unwilling or unable to objectively examine Kuffour's economic and fiscal policies and give them the "Disastrous" label they deserve because truth and honesty have been banned from your party's dictionary.

Bawumia's level of expertise is nowhere near the level you people claim. The so-called economic miracle under Kuffour he allegedly authored actually never happened. It was a clever manipulation of facts and figures. It is also becoming clearer by the day that apart from sacrificing long term permanent gains for short-term feel-good ones, developments were far less given the amount of inputs. No wonder Bawumia's economic analysis of the country's present economic situation doesn't resonate with his own peers but rather with people like you who barely understand what they read and cover their shortcomings with insults.

Be still and put on your thinking caps. Objectively analyze the so-called Economic Miracle under Kuffour. You'll realize that it actually never happened. It was a mirage and fraud perpetrated on the long-suffering Ghanaians by Bawumia & Co through clever manipulations of facts and figures and that Bawumia is not worth the adulation NPP supporters are heaping on him.

Stop exaggerating and read – Ato Forson to Bawumia
