Re: Ghana pays $40m for electricity every month – Mr. Minister, the lead must come from you. Use the housing industry to educate Ghanaians. Challenge architects, engineers, town planners... etc to come out with your vision.

Weak Logic The Gov't increased doubled import duty on cars with 3.0 engine capacity yet that has not stopped Ghanaians from importing them. Also how many of the ministers living in the glass houses have switched to the green houses?
