Why is it that our government waste money on out engineers and train them and abandon them when it comes to time for them to prove themselves as competent and capable then the money and the jobs given to foreigners to take the money away.Are our engineers useless in our society or they are just theory and not practical engineers?so can't our electrical companies to this simple task for government to award it to foreigners?

The same thing has been going on in villages around nsawam such as pepraw and djankama dobro they took money from the poor peasant farmers and promise them of giving electricity but they don't since professor mills era . We've been paying money to them almost every two years but we don't get the light that's why the entire village of population of 800 people voted for change

A similar thing happened in the Bawku municipality some few years ago.Some of us were labelled 'too known' because we questioned the rationale for collecting such monies.

The contract awarded the Chinese electrical company covers man power , transportation , meals and so it is immoral for them to be charging these rural folks additional payments for their work and also demand their manpower for the job and also ask for food stuffs , goat chicken and so forth . That is extortion which is a crime and they should not get away with that . It is the Ghanains working with the Chinese company who are doing the extortion .Extortion is a major crime in China punishable by death and the Chinese know better to commit such a crime .
