Yaw, can you kindly explain in very simple terms what this 24-hour economy is about when all our raw materials are exported because we have no idea what to do with them?

@ Pelicles the brain dead fart. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a step. When Nkrumah started building dams, hospitals, schools, clinics , factories etc. Brain dead, Kofi Busia and co called them "Prestige Projects". Now, NDC , even though I do not give a fig about them is: to get all the system in place and progressively start turning our raw materials into finished goods. Unlike goons such as Bawumia, Akufo Addo and co, some of us can have actually seen positive steps within the Mahama's govt. Nobody is going to explain "Foko" to a twat of a concrete mind called Pelicles.

Nsia, do you realize that the "begins with a step" actually took place during Nkrumah's time? So are we supposed to be starting all over again or should we have been miles down the road by now? Over the past two decades, which parties have dominated politics in Gh? How many times have projects been abandoned, sold, misappropriated etc by those parties in power? We don't have the infrastructures to support this type of economy and if we do, please let me know. Once the infrastructures are available, proper management protocols etc then we can say we have a foundation to build on until then we go talk saa with nothing to show for it. If any thing at all, I would suggest they tackle this galamsey problem heads on because its damages are going to be long lasting: commodities, health etc. Let us be pragmatic.

NDC supporters' behaviour and support for this so-called 24-Hour Economy programme is akin to "THE KING MUS DANCE NAKED". In that story everyone in the community knew the king was naked, but they were brainwashed that only a fool could not see the king's new adorning cloth.

NDC including Maham himself know that there is nothing new in the policy and flies in the face but they still hail it. Traditional 24-hour operating establishments like online banking, hospitals, hospitality services, prostitution, womanising, etc will continue to operate as such. Mahama should tell us what he making so much noise about. Like guinea fowl, savanna afforestation, etc. this is another idiotic gimmick to drain Ghana like a cow.

A Rotten Kingdom of Donkeys.

I'm not a prophet of doom but it's a recipe for corruption just like the guinea fowls project in JDM's first term. You are unable to employ qualified professionals, no factories being built, no expansion of existing institutions, existing markets across the country are there but they say they are building 24-hour economy markets for the policy to take off and I begin to ask myself questions. Ei this 24-hour economy de as3m b3ba dabi oo yoo.

Goosie Tandoh is the next President of Ghana. He will be in better position to implement this policy as President after Mahama.

More government bureaucracy for this useless 24 hour economy initiative. That’s what Ghana needs, more people on the governments payroll.

There are no factories for manufacturing, our raw materials are exported, no services in the country that have to run 24 hours, what at all is this so-called 24-hour economy story/scam?

I believe they do some changes in our salary system? Salary should be pay every two weeks to allow the system to be free and I believe more people will develop a habit of saving when they make this change
