really really
Oyiwa.... that's how dumsor dumsor and galamsey started under NDC Atta mills/Mahamah in exchange for Chinese to sell their generators and Excavators to destroy the country...smh
Lets also give the presidency to the Chinese. That way, we know its over..all this nonsense will cease. So unbelievable
That’s my opinion from 20 years ago , the entire presidency had to be given to the Chinese
Shame in you shesheshe sheeee stop shifting the goal post atta mills never worked with Chinese government how can we move forward with attitude like this failed nation with nipotis
It was Kufour in power n 2007
Don't bring NDC in, address the issue and the most incompetent Akufu Ado's government who are the managers of the economy!!!
This is a sensitive and serious issue, don't play the fool. This is not politics time.
Guffaw
You're fooling too much. NPP has failed to invest in high-yielding projects but they only spent on freebies, freebies. So how do you expect Ghana to offset its acquired loans?
They’ve already seized the ECG, couple of months ago the Chinese ECG and one military officer going house to house installing prepaid meter I was like what the f-ck! Going in my motherland!
Old news. Today is 11 October 2024
@Paul, ask again oh. I Mam surprised people are rescting negatively after Chinea itself led the external team during our debt resrtucturing. Folks are mot reading wide thereby allowing propaganda to flourish. The story is a f ...

Yes it is an old story but the fact remains that we can’t pay our loans. Get real and hold those who have brought us to where we are responsible for the corrupt, reckless actions.

I really don’t understand why our parliament would sit by and allow our government to behave in this reckless manner of collateralising our Entire Mineral Wealth. Do we really need this type of parliament?
Say and say it again. Where are our men to face these Chinese who have no respect for Africans.
This is not a matter of "Chinese have no regards for African". We are the one who went and borrowed their funds via IMF. Get in your head.
Note that we have The Majority Carry The Day parliament . So the majority does what suits it .
US and her allies are in control of 93% of our mineral resources, so they are afraid to lose some of that percentage to the Chinese.
It looks like the Anglo-Saxons are not human beings more than any other race.
As Anglo-S ...

Ndc npp mo maaame tw3 kankan.....foolish parliamentarians,foolish president
NPP communicators will deny this one too.
Bro. Have we noted when these debts began? These two major parties, NDC and NPP has brought us this far. If it not NPP it can't be NDC to govern Ghana.
And stupid Ghanaians are willing to vote for NDC again?
Ghana is the only country in the world with educated illiterate parliamentarians whose aim is to fight and cut themselves with blades. Otherwise they will go and spend months overseas and twick on Tick tock. What are your ex ...

IMF, China, and other lending institutions are set to take over Ghana, and our leaders don't seem to mind. But the sooner we stand up for what's right, the better—because when they relocate, it’s the citizens who will bea ...

You sit in parliament and approve these collateralized loans.
Idiots.
IMF give us a breakdown of the loans between 2007 and 2018 on a yearly basis and let us see the government that loves its people.
Thank you.
Whatever is coming through the IMF and these Western institutions must be cleared through African lens . There is a big power play going on by the West against China for the hearts and minds of Africans . Disregard . Africa ...

Why do Christians and Muslims to Bhudist for money
Little over 30 million people..can’t feed ourselves
Eeh,NPP criminal gangs in Jubilee house
I believe you don't mean to shift this problem to NPP. Go back to read when these debts started accumulating
IMF, Mind ur own business, that's ur Dream that's African Romain poor
Akuffo Addo has already sold Ghana to the Chinese, after his term in office he will run to the UK with his family, ghanaians have now see how wicked the NPP is, useless regime with useless appointees
What is the government doing till shit hit the fan? It's totally negligence and irresponsible.

It was said so last year but the government was able to avoid that, this was new of last year before IMF deals finalised.
This is why NPP IS LOOTING because they know what they leave behind will be seized by china.
IMF is playing fear mongering,Chinese Chinese are competing with the west on our menirals IMF is not our friends same as the Chinese, why can't we manage what we have
Falsehood
What does the writer gain from bringing dead news
I'm a Ghanaian living in UK i have read this article the question is do the leaders in Ghana read these articles if they do then I would like to know their reactions
The articles are for the people dear, informing us of what the leaders already know and are doing in the shadows

The education ministry is winning the 2024 general election for ndc because may be the minister was not chosen as a running mate.
I like NPP's business sense. They know how to gather them and sell. I mean gather ECG, Minerals, Oil and then sell to Chinese. That is why they support gather dem sell (galamsey)
See the shit that this scum government has put our children in. Rise up for change and not Moharmma he is a shit as well
They shouldn't try cos this time, we'll give them showdown. If they want to seize anything, it must be the property of the people in npp and ndc government not State own property. Fools you're in the country stealing our res ...

THEY SHOULD GO AND SEIZE AKUFFO ADDO AND BAWUMIAH AND THEIR FAMILY NOT GHANA. THEY WILL VOMIT ALL THE MONEY OR CHINA CAN TAKE THEM TO CHINA AND IMPRISONED THEM
N why is this not on the front page?
Ghanaians are u happy now?
Allowed an ugly short midget to put over 30 million in suffering..n people are scared to talk..
When the research concluded that Ghana has a very low IQ, they looked at our president and his entourage. See what he even did on France24. The Chinese will soon colonise us.
So sad.
Well they cannot seize anything my friend. Loans are paid with more chances to clear off. Why is IMF always talking about Ghana and no other nation in Africa?
But how credible is the IMF to come out with this information and everyone is hay while.All the time they're telling us china is creating a debt trap to African countries but what about imf itself? They made sure you can't pa ...

Have they taken over these aforementioned collateral securities? Stop crying wolf if there is none. You've done this your diabolical nonsense in every election year but it has never benefited your NDC party.
Cried about the west for so long that the Chinese wolf has crept in and devoured your resources. Stop being silly little sheep.
This is serious.
After giving them our water bodies and forests to destroy for gold. Greedy bastards selling this country for peanuts
Ghana amongst other african countries are wealthy enough to sustain itself we just have corrupt politicians. Most of this money goes in their pockets
