Smart people and smart countries do. We didn't any long term plan for anything in Ghana and that is the cause of mess the country is in today. Olive trees start bearing good fruits after 30 year but old farmers with vision still cultivate them.

Mr. Jones my guess is you are under 40.If I'm right then hopefully you will see the next 40 and you will be the judge. If you are over 40 then you must be very selfish.

Wise man. You are short sighted in vision. A country can have 100 years plan. If they know their needs and where they want to be at , at every point along the way. So 40 years development plan is not too far.

Npp refused to attend when they were invited to partake in the drawing of the plan. Stupid old men like this osafo marfo guy are a disgrace to Ghana politics!

He knows he will be dead in less than 40 so he couldn't care less. No wonder he approved of a national cathedral where he would be laid in state Selfish old man.

How come one person can kick against what state funds were spent to draw for the good of the populace? Do we have vision and a suppose mission to drive us there? All of you should speak now or never say anything about good governance in this country anymore. Else you would be called hypocrites.Stop this egoism developing around.

You comments clearly is a sign that you and the so-called Senior Minister have no degree of understanding of what Perspective Plan constitutes.

Osafo Marfo is too proud and arrogant. Meanwhile he has succeeded in perpetrating nepotism by bringing his son down from abroad to head SSNIT. He is a through-in-through ethnocentric tribal bigot who can set this country ablaze. We must be careful with this old Akyem Marfia bull.
