I clearly remember like it was only yesterday when I took on a shoe-shine job as a child among others like a paper bag seller and other low income street hawking businesses. Well, no one forced me into those ventures, but I did them in order to survive. I only earned just about enough to either buy my morning and afternoon meals or starved. The home or family only provided the evening meals for those with deprivable incomes. Yet this is considered child labour. Fortunately I only did these during term breaks from school but compared to my colleagues, I was one of the fortunate ones who had education.
It is easier to stop these children from working on the streets and deprive them from their hard earned meals which their families cannot provide for them, but does this intervention really arrest the problem? I understand the US concern, that every child should be given the chances and opportunities in life. I agree with any kind of help or intervention but it has to be pragmatic. Address the problem wholly, and not imposing starvation upon those children after they are forced to leave earning their meal ticket. If anyone had stopped me from working just for the sake of it, they would have deprived me of becoming what I am today.
Maybe it would be better for the US to stop this $500 million aid which has never trickled down to help neither these children nor their families. How do you even help the children alone without going through the family structure? Decades of abuse of successive governments have resulted into this deprivable situation which is not the making of the US government. They can only do what they can to help but the government of Ghana is not even prepared to help his own nation. Their agenda wrongly misplaced to deplete our resources unscrupulously including even this aid to help the poor children. I will always say, this is a cursed nation, that’s why we have wicked and evil leadership especially this NDC only a satanic apprentice of a government.

This child-labour thing has been with us as far back as Methuselah's age. It is cultural and it is economic. It has outlasted difference political regimes and as much as we all do agree that it is not a pleasant thing, it is just hypocritical to single out the NDC as being responsible for the practice.

You did the "child-slaving" thing so that you could buy yourself some food to eat. Do you know the number of children in the USA who go hungry everyday and American government doesn't take care of them?
What you and the American government does understand is the Ghanaian socio-cultural system.
In America, no one will send his or her child to go and live with a relative somewhere. However this is a very common practice in Ghana. People always send ther kids to go a live with a sister, brother, uncle, auntie, grandmother, grandfather, etc., in some cases, even total strangers. We all know this but I don't think the American know this nor understand it. They leave in their own world and do things differently.
Some of these cultural practices will not change and people will continue to dispatch the kids to go and live with someone somewhere. If even you the Ghanaian don't get this, how much more the foreigners who have different ways of doing things and don't understand the cultural dimensions of our society?
The only way to alleviate this child-labour syndrome, what the USA calls "Modern Day Slavery" is for our economy to be vibrant and educational system improved. These 2 areas are the main reasons why people dispatch their kids to go and live with others, who in turn misuse them.
If you the Ghanaian don't get it, I don't expect the Americans to.
This child-labour thing is equally pervasive in others parts of the world, especially India and the Asia subcontinent but do you see America threatening them to stop the practice? No they don't because only stupid black people like us will be bullied around. No wonder governments abuse human rights all over the world but only African leaders are hunted down, captured like a game, and brought before the international court in the Netherlands. Only African leaders. The Vietnamese, the Burmese, and the komininis, all get a pass because they are not black Africans!
By the way, was this child-slavery still in place when your Kufour and the NPP were in power or it only started when the NDC came to power? Hypocrites like you will never discuss the issues the way they are without putting a political slant to them. Am sorry I have to end it this way but I think I have to draw your attention to the hypocrisy at the end of your comment.

two wrongs do not make a right. Slavery in Ghana, and slavery in America are both wrong. America has many ills in its society, but that does not mean that if it has the power to influence certain backward behaviors in poorer countries it should not do so. Child slavery is WRONG, no matter how you slice or dice it. I do agree with your suggestions to use aid to improve the social programs that would enable these poor children to get a basic education, but please let us not try to justify this dastardly act. Children should not have to work until they reach the age of 15 or 16, and even then, there should be safeguards in place to protect them from exploitation which is very common.

The first one to be caught for contempt is john Ford Mahama. The guy is a thief. He stole election 2012 by bribing Atuguba and Afari Gyan. He intends to do same by employing his girlfriend Harlot Osei and that is why Harlot Osei is downplaying the orders given by the SC judges in the Abu Ramadan, Nimako versus EC chair, Harlot Osei who intends to plunge Ghana into chaos. If Ofumfuor is truly willing to help prosecute election fraudsters, the first to face firing squad is Harlot and her boyfriend John Ford Mahama, the thief president. Also the two NDC activists who threaten to slaughter the Supreme Court Judges must be lined up for firing squad alongside Koku Anyidoho, the stupid lawyer Atuguba and Alonte Jacobs. All these fools have said something which are very outrageous and very disturbing to the nation's security. These NDC fools must all be questioned to explain what they said about the judges.

You ended up stealing all the money was allocated for their operations. You promised the solution of DUMSOR by 2014 when you campaigned for power in 2012. We are in July 2016 and DUMSOR is still alive and debilitating resulting in several job losses. You've stolen money and inflated the cost of power badges and even gas for fueling them. You've filled the police and military with people from your party. Now you're promising military garrisons for every region so you can fill them with your partyou foot soldiers as if the rest of us are not Ghanaians. You will not win the elections because Ghanaians are not fools.

No more organic food, women and children suffering, not too many people living over 70 years, pick pockets, armed robberies, violent crimes, contract killings, many rivers with their fishes and other species have vanished(died), the environment is under severe attack as a result of 'galamsey' by foreigners who have teamed up with some kings and other locals.

Yes, it may sound like the US is dictating to the government of Ghana or to all the people of Ghana including the so called opposition parties in hiding on this issue of modern slavery, but in reality the USA is pinpointing to us of our failed responsibilities as parents and leaders of a nation that needs to be well managed by every party that takes the mantle of leadership.
It is time that we all in Ghana stop the foolish and village oriented poilitics of division, litigation, hatred against one another when in real sense politics calls for unity among the people in the good managing of the affairs of our dear nation. Inshort, this time the USA has come out well as a nation that we shall like to listen to because their views here are things much to be welcome by every rational person.
However although their points here are acceptable they should know that they can never use this their financial leverage to think they can tell us to follow all their foolish politics on the international scene that had sorrowfully plunged the whole world into into confusion with their creating of terrorism knowingly and unknowingly.
The USA also should be ready to learn from others who know better than them on other matters of importance that money is used as the criterial of judgement but humbleness of which the USA, the Americans never have. Period.

THE FOOLISH US AMBASSADOR DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THE CULTURALMILIEU OF GHANA.As a child who lsot his mother early. a family member took me, gave me a bed and some meals. I sold chew stick, sardines at railway station and in the street in the morning to raise money to buy food at school and other things needed at school. I used some of the trading money to pay to sit the common entrance, gained admission and scholarship. I had regular meals in boarding school. I made it to Ph.D. I am grateful for the bed and meal of the relative. What I am saying is that child-traders do so to cope, not as slaves!

My people please lets just accept that Ghanaians faulted by electing this bafoon of a president to lead our dear country. It seems like he and his government cant get anything right. They are so busy stealing and playing the deceptive game on Ghanaians rather than putting together pragmatic programs to lift Ghana and formulating policies that will protect the citizens. Ghana has a lot of resources and external support that if managed well could lift it from abject poverty. Ghana needs proper management folks! and I'm not even talking about the NPP because they are also bad managers. I just think it's about time Ghana look into alternative means of government because this thing we currently have aint cutting it.

Hey Oman Ghana , Kwame Nkrumah would have told Rob Jackson take your foodstamp program and Ghana will look else where. Where in the world does a so-call friend tie tbe hands of a friend to the back in order to extract a deal? Let the aggressive Rob Jackson take his $500. Million aid and Ghana will look to any available resources anywhere and elsewhere. Ghana is not for sale. ECG can be saved by Ghanaians were it for the corrupt mahama regime who has misplaced the economic managrment of Ghana for taking bribes. You pushed hardened terrorists on our subregion through Ghana and now US wants ECG in exchange for foodstamps? Keep your foodstamps Rob Jackson. Mahama can not be trusted. This a creepy globalization, a new face of fascism and colonialism. Keep your foodstamps Rob Jackson, and WE THE PEOPLE OF GHANA will mobilize local cedis to save ECG. Mshama be forewarned if you sell off ECG, you will be placing our National Security, Education, Health afministration in bondage. Ghana will never forgive and your northern cabal. We will going forward advocate for northerners to pay school fees. We will not sit down for Mahama to walk Ghana into indenture sertitude and slavery. Mahama, there will be chaos socially and pitically if you dare sell ECG. Ghana can appoint interim management headed by Sam Joana, with a non-partisan outlook. On board to assist Sam Joana, i propose: Joycre Aryee, Prof. Akilakpa Sawyer, Tsatsu Tsikata, Ndibugri, Dr. Kwesi Botchway and Sarfo Marfo to steer the affairs of ECG for just four year term. Don"t sell ECG, Mahama. This is a national security issue. If a US company is coming across the Atlantic ocean to buy ECG in Ghana without producing electricity but just to buy and sell a power generated by another national company; then any conpamy from China, the UK, France, Israel and Germany or Russia can do same. Why is Mahama putting our eggs in one basket? NPP and Nana Akuffo Addo, this is a test of leadership and you can not remain silent. Ghana needs leaders who will stand up for us and speak their minds like Atta Mills, Dr. Nkrumah, Dr. BUSIA, Gen. Acgeampong. Mahama you risk endangering The soverign Republic of Ghana if you ever sell ECG. Sack the non-perfirming board at ECG, the current management must all go and government must pay its indebtedness to ECG. Rob Jackson you are too pushy and aggressive. Slow down or else you will not like Ghanaians. We are fesrless like the green turtle but honest. HANDS OFF GHANA'S ECG. We need bold leadership not a corrupt one like Mahama. Ghana will never forgive northerners if you sell ECG, mahama.

Funny how the US Ambassador issues threats. This is a country that cruelty and stole hundreds of millions of Africans to build its wealth. Fast-forward: today, the US police and army shoots blacks in the streets without provocation and no prosecution. OMG: and the ambassador is lecturing Ghana: a country which suffered it repairable damage from slaves snatched away; a country that has given refuge to terrorists that America fears! Give us a break, Ambassador. If there is any criminality in our behaviour, you taught us well.....mind your own business! By the way: your aid to ECG? Your private companies and lobbyists need it more -- you cant stop it, whether we practice child labour or not!

You really need to be corrected. Americans did not steal or snatch people from our shores. Do some research. We ourselves stole and snatched our own people and sold them for a pittance. Ask the Chiefs, some of them are still proud of the disgusting role they played during the slave trade. We can blame Americans for the way our people were treated, but what were we expecting? We didn't do this for ten years, twenty or fifty years but more than five HUNDRED years. We sold our own brothers, sisters, parents, children and friends for trinkets and alcohol.
Stop blaming others and look within.

"Why don't you call a spade a spade"? Why US government tie it to a reason such that; if Electricity problems are not resolve in a timely manner US will cut the $500 million aid towards electricity or energy sector?
Quote from the passage:"The US government has threatened to cut about $500 million in private investments intended to help shore-up the dipping fortunes of the Electricity Company of Ghana". May be is different reason for the fact that ECG is fighting to refuse US Company from managing ECG? US should look into different area to punish the government other than the energy sector.

SLAVERLY CONTINUES IN GHANA BECAUSE OF THIS SAME THING: AIDS. AIDS AND LOANS WITH STRICK CONDITION HAVE RESULTED IN: 1. OUR LEADERS HAVE BECOME LAZY IN THINKING- they say: why think, after all we can get free AIDS and LOANS and use fractions of that to REPAIR SOME ROADS to make the IGNORANT MASSES keep us in power. 2. WE HAVE SOLD ALL OUR STATE-OWNED FACTORIES AND CORPORATIONS, MOST OF THEM TO THE DETRIMENT OF OUR OWN ECONOMIC GROWTH - how many of those factories sold under PNDC/NDC's Structural Adjustment Programme, and under NPP & NDC 2, have records of improved production, employment and other benefits as compared to same before they were sold out? Only few of them did better eg Ghana Telecommunication Company sold to VODAFONE. 3. WE HAVE BECOME DISTRIBUTORS AND CONSUMERS OF PRIMARY AND PROCESSED GOODS- check the records, it was only in 1974&5 that Ghana had TRADE SURPLUS under Kutu Acheampong's OPERATION FEED YOURSELF & O.F YOUR INDUSTRY. Those were years Ghana was not given any AIDS or LOANS. 4. THE ABOVE MENTIONED THREE, TOGETHER, HAVE. RESULTED IN HUGE UNEMPLOYMENT FACING THE YOUTH AND ADULTS. 5. MODERN SLAVELY? THE NET EFFECT OF AIDS AND LOANS THAT TIE OUR GOVERNMENTS TO THE DICTATES OF THE GIVERS IS MODERN SLAVERLY. THiS INCLUDES CHILD SLAVERLY AND VOLUNTARY SLAVERLY BY ADULT YOUTH. MOST GHANAIAN YOUTHS TODAY TRAVEL OUTSIDE GHANA AND OUT OF FRUSTRATIONS ACCEPT TO DO JOBS UNDER CONDITIONS NOT DIFFERENT FROM SLAVERLY IN THE 17TH CENTURY. US AMBASSADOR TO GHANA, PLEASE ENCOURAGE YOUR GOVERNMENT, IMF. & WLD BANK TO STOP THE AIDS.& LOANS WITH SLAVERLY CONDITIONS TO GHANA!. YOUR EFFORTS ARE NOT HELPING THE CHILD SLAVERLY YOU INTEND FIGHTING. YOUR EFFORTS ARE MAKING OUR GOVERNMENTS CORRUPT, LAZY THINKING TO THE EXTENT THAT OUR PEOPLE BECOME POOR IN PROPORTION TO THE AIDS AND LOANS FROM US GOVERNMENT, IMF & WORLD BANK.

Like it is always said If you are not at the table you are on the menu. The United States must ask the Financial world to place Ghana on the Table of the financial Institutions that make the decisions. We in Ghana produce enough for the consumption of the whole world, and demand a place on the table. We are fed up being treated like beggars. Long live Ghana.

Ambassador Jackson , nice try with your threat regarding this your " tied aid" money. If the US taxpayers have money to burn in " kleptomaniac republics" with visonless political and traditional leaders advised them it is better to spend such funds in the USA. The objectives of this aid moneies you talk about is laudable especially in the ernergy area but you must as well bury your head in the sand because it will not make a dent in the social area you are trying to help improve.
Sorry you don't understand the history and culture of the people of Ghana. Slavery is in our DNA. We sold our folks to the Dutch and the English to take them to the Americas, didn't we? Despite modern life our cultural life is infested with "de facto" slavery though not "de jure." We live a life of pretent in coexistence with our chieftancy dispensation in Ghana.
Next, the Ghanaian middle class and elite cannot maintain their gaudy lifestyles without the labor of poor young kids from the villages. Despite compulsory education laws on the books kids( girls and boys ) are brought by these elites and middle class to come to raise their children and manage their household chores as " maids and house boys", with the promises to parents to send them to schools to acquire trade skills that usually never happen. The justification for this modern slavery is if the kids do not come to slave in their households , they will be worst off in their future life. In the situation I have just described regarding child labor in context of compulsory education, who is going to arrest, prosecute and jail who? The police, top civil servant, lawyer , judge , professor, chief? They are all in it together. Their wives will revolt if they act.
Human trafficking is an adult crime and must be prosecuted and and the criminals sanctioned. That should not be tied to specific aid. It is a global problem and require global solutions.
And back to the social problem of modern day slavery, Sir, have you noticed the model of "self actualization " in Ghanana since you arrived in Ghana? It is about the type of SUV and saloon cars you own, your house and the neiborhood you live in, the school your children goes to, ( go and stand at the Ablelemkpe junction and watch the cars that brings the children of the elite to school in the morning), the church congregation you are member of, where you go on holidays ( Dubai these days) with family , and the silly part; buying a doctorate degree or being made a chief., sub or otherwise is what the elites aspires to. Most people in the elite class wants to be referenced as , Nana( chief) , Doctor( purchased) pastor, prophet, archbishop and general overseer.? They claim to be Christians but condone corruption and slavery ; obvious, subtle or otherwise . Sycophancy towards the well to do in our society is sickening ; Daddy , Dr., instead of Owura (MR.) Some key opinion leaders in Ghana have offered their conscience for sale are afraid to cry out against wrongs in society. Ghana can't be USA for a while. We have many stomach politicians and journalists. No one is willing to die for principle or any behavior we can call "decent". It is all about lying to voters for a " better future" , getting control of the treasury, creating expensive projects, looting with impunity and sharing among themselves while the society declines . Afraid they might be ask to account for their decadence, the elite ask the clergy to pray for peace as if peace can be found in the holy books.
Mr Jackson please advise your government from trying to offer well meaning aid tied to societal reforms Ghana.That is not going to happen under this crop of elite and leaders and traditional rulers in Ghana. You can help us better if through your intelligence agencies you publish large account holdings and properties that our politicians, civil servants and some key Chiefs have stolen to hide in your BANKS and Real Estate industry. We can begin to see change in our society only when our leader can be held to account. That is when we can start the process of change for a better Ghana. If politicians are made to account for their wealth , your taxpayers money may do some good in areas most needed. Otherwise they will loot our treasury for you to come fill the gap.
If US wants to give us Aid, tell your Congress and State Department it must come untied because " the beautiful ones are not yet born"
God bless the cordial bonds between Americans and Ghanaians. Thank you.

The USA should know that the NDC government think of looting state cash and rigging elections,apart from all the money they borrowed even aid for specific purposes ve been dirverted,I'm suprize the ambassador is mentioned street hauking,government sees that as job creation.We hear people advertise even on nation tv and radio stations recruiting people to the Middle East,so if there was this model to stop this,why should the state allow people advertise openly?.As employment continue to be an embarrassment to government they don't care how many of the youth leave the country through criminal means in other to reduce the huge numbers of unemployment in this country,Libia use to host thousands of Ghanaians those who do not make it to that country die on the disert and they don't care.

Government needs to demonstrate competency with some bold initiatives.
Here are some:
1) A much published telephone number and web site where slaves can report their captivity.
People who suspect slavery going on should also report.
2)Invite media to cover slavery stories.
3) Set up a specially trained police unit to investigate and lay charges for slavery.
4) Set up refuges for former slaves that help them live independent lives.
5) A Minister responsible should give 3 monthly progress reports to the press and TV. The web site should show statistics of efforts to stop slavery in Ghana.
It can be done. It just needs political will and effort. Just do it.

The US should cut the damn aid. We don't need it. It helps our leaders to be stupid and non-thinkers. We need leaders who will use their brains to digest issues and come out with solution. Aid, be it money or whatever shou ...

We don't need their useless money
please keep the money ,John Mahama and his NDC thieves will continue to chop your money and create a fake report to cover it, please we beg you!
The fact of the matter is the aid given to Ghana is just on transit basis. Once the money gets to the gov't, it is easily diverted to their private accounts in the US and Europe. Until we stop these naked stealing and stop wa ...

If individuals engage in child labour is it the making of the government.In the U.S. individuals engage in terrorist attacks,do we blame the U.S. government for that?

I perfectly agree with the US government.Even money given are not used for the required projects under the mahama's administration.They should put a stop to every grant and let them use their IGF for their projects
Don't mind these parasites! They have been itching to get their hands on our national infrastructure for ages. That is the real slavery: work in Ghana, pay your light bills and an American grows richer.
Funny how the US Ambassador issues threats. This is a country that cruelty and stole hundreds of millions of Africans to build its wealth. Fast-forward: today, the US police and army shoots blacks in the streets without provo ...

Mr Ambassador, your 15mil has gone into the pockets of our corrupt President and his cohorts in NDC that is the reason why you can't see any of training and enforcement. Hahahaha. Your money is gone.
Stupid President,if you don't have appetite for american cars,then,don't have appetite for american dollars.
The social system in advanced countries is differend from developing world.In advance countries like Germany,there is a system called monthly social allowances for every child.So you cannot practice child labour activities.

@Kwaku Broni: very sensible man. If after 1957 you are still dependent on aid, you must re-evaluate yourself & see what's wrong. Thank you Mr. Kwaku Broni. We need intelligent & analytical persons like you in the country
LET THE US CUT $1,000 MILLION IN AID. PERHAPS WE DON'T NEED THAT KIND OF AID.
What a cursed president. All patriotic Ghanaians should restore our nation back to it's glory before it's too late by voting NPP n Nana Addo come 7th Nov 2016.
