WE NEED ACCOUNTABILITY N TRANSPARENCY IN GOVT!
WE NEED CORRUPTION COURTS IN GH NOW!
MAHAMA PAID TO APPEAR ON CNN!!! CNN DIDNT INVITE HIM.
WHY DID MAHAMA GIVE AGGUDEY A PRESIDENTIAL PARDON? FOR WHAT? FOR HIM TO SAVE FACE AND NOT BE DISGRACED?
THIS FOOL WAS SPENDING MONEY THAT WASNT HIS AND WOMANIZING WITH YOUNG LEGON FEMALES. WHERE IS THE MORALITY HERE?
THESE GIRLS COULD HAVE BEEN YOUR SIS TERS, DAUGHTER OR NIECE...YOU KNOW...
ALL THESE THINGS ARE HAPPENENING IN GH, AND YOU EXPECT ME TO SUPPORT GH TO GO TO BRASIL? CMON NOW...
MAHAMA SAYS: LET THEM EAT CAKE....
...TARRIFS ARE GOING UP ALL ACROSS THE BOARD IN GH. YET, WE DONT SEE AN IOTA OF AN IMPROVEMENT IN PUBLIC SERVICES OR QUALITY INFRATSRUCTURE. YOU HAVNT SEEN ANYTHING YET.
ILLITERACY/LACK OF BASIC EDUCATION HAS CAUSED THE PPL TO VOTE OUT OF SHEER EMOTIONS AND ETHNIC JUDGEMENTS.
PUMPING MONEY INTO PUBLIC SERVICE ISNT THE WAY TO GO. ESP IN TODAY'S CASH STRAPPED, TECHNOLOGY INSPIRED WORLD. GOVT MUST STREAMLINE THE PUBLIC SECTOR.
WE HAVE DISTRICT, MUNICIPAL/CITY, REGIONAL AND FEDERAL GOVT . STREAMLINE THE GOVT N REMOVE THESE QUACK/QUASI, USELESS GOVT INSTITUTIONS WHICH EXIST BUT DONT DO ANYTHING TO RENDER EFFICIENT SERVICE OR COLLECT REVENUE.
1.CHECK PUBLIC SECTOR CORRUPTION. INSTITUTE CORRUPTION COURTS!
2.REDUCE PUBLIC SECTOR WAGES.
3.HIRE LESS PPL TO PROVIDE EFFICIENT SERVICE. WE NEED DISCIPLINE, CLEAR OVERSIGHT, CHECK N BALANCES N PATRIOTIC HARDWORKERS IN THE SYSTEM.
4. FACTORIES
GH REVENUE SOURCE: TAXES. LOANS, GRANTS FROM OUTSIDE FOR REVENUE GENERATING VENTURES IN GH. STREAMLINE INDUSTRIES, GOVT...CUT DOWN SPENDING,
WIDEN TAX BASE, EXPORT MORE.
NOT A BUNCH OF THIEVES WHO COME TO STEAL N COLLECT BRIBES! WHO ARE YOU MAKING A MOCKERY OF?...
IN MY BOOK, YOU EITHER DO IT RIGHT. OR YOU GET ELIMINATED.
TOO MANY GH PPL LACK SELF CONFIDENCE AND DONT BELIEVE IN WHO THEY ARE. THEN AGAIN, U CANT BLAME THEM. LOOK AT THEIR SURROUNDINGS..OPEN GUTTERS, MALARIA, FILTH, DIRT EVERYWHERE!
I AM 37 YRS OLD. WE HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH MALARIA SINCE THE DAY I WAS BORN. STILL HAVNT FOUND AN ATIDOTE. WHY?
NO BASIC PLANNING IN GH TO AID TAXATION, AND ADDRESS SYSTEM OR TO CHECK CRIMINAL ACITIVITY. UNLICENSED BUSINESSPPL SELLING FOOD NEXT TO FILTH, I MEAN ITS A SHAME...ITS A SHAME.
SINCE THE DAYS OF METHUSELAH, WE HAVE BEEN WASTING MILLIONS ON MALARIA, WHY?
WAT WILL IT TAKE TO DEVELOP MODERN DRAINAGE SYSTEMS, CLOSED GUTTERS?
LOOK AT BRASIL? THEY HAVE CLAIMED THE MOST WCUPS IN HISTORY BCOS THEY INVESTED IN QUALITY SOCCER INFRSTRUCTURE, STADIUMS ETC.
GO TO ALL OUR GOVT STADIUMS N SEE GARGANTUAN INFRASTRACTURAL DEGRADATION. YOUR SCOREBOARD DOSENT EVEN WORK, BUT U WANT TO GO TO WORLDCUP?
LOOK AT GH. YOU WANT TO GO TO WCUP, BUT LOOK AT YOUR SOCCER INFRSATRUCTURE? IS IT FAIR TO THE OTHER NATIONS IN AFRICA WHO HAVE INVESTED IN
BETTER SOCCER INFRASTRUCTURE, STADIUMS, LEAGUES ETC. TO STAY HOME FOR GH TO QUALIFY AND GO TO BRASIL? HELL NO!
HE WHO CLIMBS A GOOD TREE DESERVES SUPPORT....NOT VICE VERSA. LOOK AT THE QUALITY OF PLAYERS AA HAS INVITED FOR THE WCUP QUALIFIER VS EGYPT?
REALLY?..EVEN OLELE PAID 5000 DOLLARS FOR SELECTION. DO BRASILIAN PLAYERS PAY BRIBES TO GET SELECTION? WAT IS OTOO, JORDAN AYEW, ADOMAH, FRIMPONG DOING HERE?
Now, if you were to open a textbook from years ago, you would have found that natural resources in abundance are a source of growth and wealth for
developing countries, or so it was supposed. Why not?
If you have oil, if you have diamonds, if you have gold and copper, can't these be used to help develop the country?
But if you turn to contemporary textbooks, the first chapter is liable to be about the resource curse, meaning that the revenues from foreign
investment in oil and gas and coal and copper get siphoned off in corruption. billions of dollars are siphoned off every year into THE private pockets of these so called DEMOCRATIC LEADERS.
WHAT A SHAME! There is a lack of transparency. There is a lack of accountability.
if you look at Chile, Peru, Indonesia, Malaysia, these are
countries that have been very successful in using their rich resources TO DEVELOP THEIR NATION. WHY CANT GHANAIAN GOVTS LEARN FROM THEM?
So the question is, how can resources be used to benefit broad economic and social development and avoid the corruption and authoritarian rule?
The key issue is always going to be the local population, the local leadership, the local press, and NGOs, non-governmental authorities that try
to promote openness and transparency. In 2010-2011, Ghana started to export significant quantities of oil.
Is this going to be the best thing that ever happened to Ghana or the worst thing that ever happened to Ghana?
The phenomenon called "Dutch Disease" is also part of the resource curse. THIS means that the exchange rate for the currency of
resource-rich countries becomes overvalued, and this hurts the exports of other industries.
WHAT THIS NDC GOVT IS DOING IS THIS. THEY HAVE DEVALUED THE CURRENCY, SO FOREIGNERS CAN BUY MORE EXPORTING OIL FOR EXPORT, RESOURCES. WHILES THEY STEAL THE MONIES INTO THEIR PRIVATE, FOREIGN
BANK ACCOUNTS. REALLY? IM READY TO START KILLING SOME OF THESE MINISTERS, MPS ETC......
Ghana is NOW like Haiti!!! There was only one airport in Haiti and when the disaster strucked,aid donors HAD it so hard to send humanitarian reliefs because the only one international airport
was destroyed. just imaginING if Ghana is not the same as Haiti??!! Building one international airport in Kumasi has turnED into tribal politics!!#
President John Dramani Mahama has added a whopping GHc15.6 BILLION DOLLARS to Ghana’s total public debt stock since being sworn into office as caretaker and substantive president within the period from July 2012 to August 2013.
This implies that President John Mahama has contracted a total of GHc15.6 BILLION DOLLARS of debt for Ghanaians since becoming the President of Ghana.
WHAT DO WE HAVE TO SHOW FOR ALL THIS DEBT? LOOK AT GH? SMELLY, DUSTY...OPEN GUTTERS I MEAN WHY? HOW? WHO VOTED FOR NDC? GO N CLAIM YOUR SHARE....PLUS AN INCREASE IN WATER, HYDRO TARRIFS ACROSS THE BOARD?
WHEN RICH WESTERN NATIONS ARE PAYING DOWN THEIR DEBTS/NATIONAL DEFICITS. WAT IS GH DOING, U ASK? BORROWING MORE MONEY. WAA LOOK?
IF YOUR STANDARD OF LIVING IS THIS BAD. HOW BAD WILL THE STANDARD OF LIVING FOR YOUR CHILDEREN AND GRANDCHILDREN BE? THINK ABOUT THIS PPL?.....
THIS IS NOT ABOUT NPP OR NDC. ghana is under the most useless leadership of all time,nurses are unpaid for six months ,children are dying of heart failures and asiedu nketia is feasting in streatham london with ghanas money.i pity for those who voted ndc.
A CLASSIC CASE OF FRENCH QUEEN CATHERINE'S "LET THEM EAT CAKE"...WELL, GUESS WHAT TRIGGERED THE FRENCH REVOLUTION? THIS FOOLISH STATEMENT IS WHAT TRIGGERED THE FRENCH REVOLUTION.
GHPPL, RISE UP AND CLAIM YOUR SHARE!
Mr Paul Victor Obeng, has made a strong case for the need to ensure that increasing access to the Internet does not lead to the importation of alien cultures.
“While increasing access to the Internet would improve the socio-economic circumstances, its negative influences call for a concerted effort to counter the bad influence.
Increasing access should not lead us to the importation of attitudes that are incompatible with our social norms,” he said.
WAT IS PV'S PROBLEM? WESTERN NATIONS LIKE CANADA, AMERICA, BRITAIN, GERMANY ETC ALL HAVE INTERNET TECHNOLOGY READILY AVAILABLE FOR THEIR CITIZENS. HAS IT IMPACTED THEIR CULTURE NEGATIVELY?
EVEN BEFORE INTERNET, WE WERE SELLING/THROWING AWAY OUR CULTURE. WAT HAPPENS AT INDEPENDENCE MARCHES IN GH, 6 MARCH. DO WE EVEN POUR LIBATION ANYMORE?
WE PUT OUR KIDS IN THE BURNING SUN TO BLACKEN N FAINT. KIDS WE CANT EVEN GIVE FREE BASIC EDUCATION TO. WHILES, WE WALLOW IN THE ABJECTIVITY OF THE BIBLE N KORAN..
GAMBIA, CONGRATULATION FOR TAKING A BOLD STEP ON YOUR DECISION TO LEAVE THE COMMONWEALTH. I SALUTE YOU! GH GOVT, DO YOU HAVE THE BALLS TO DO SO?
SHAME ON OUR USELESS, TOOTHLESS SO CALLED LEADERS, ELDERS, MINISTERS, PRESIDENTS. SHAME ON YOU AND TO YOU ALL WHO HAVE EMBARKED ON STEALING.
I WISH EARLY DEATH AND A LIFE RIDDLED WITH PAINFUL DISEASES ON ALL OF YOU. YOU KNOW WHO ARE....
STUPID GOVT LEADERS. BCOS OF YOUR STUPID CORRUPT HABITS, AFRICANS ARE HAVING TO TRAVEL ILLEGALLY TO RACIST NATIONS. MANY HAVING TO DIE OR DROWN IN THE SEA. IS THIS RIGHT?
WHY ARE YOU SOO FUCKING WICKED, HUH? WHY?....
THIS IS BROWN BROWN BROTHERS, AND I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE!

Kwame,Kwame, Kwame! Democracy comes at a cost. The court case was a test case in our quest for true democracy and all the leaders involved showed great maturity in dealing with it. Who stopped the wheel of growth when the case was being heard by the Supreme Court?
Who said the leadership couldn't have planned anything when the case was being examined? It's a case of trying to find scapegoats of someone else deficiencies.
The court case is over but the cedi is in free fall. When you have a bunch of inefficiency lot at the helm of affairs this is what happens. You can never use force or propaganda to govern a nation. It needs the brain.

it people like Kwame whos derailed the development of our dear country.they always put blames at the wrong direction instead of focusing on causing our problems.like or not the 2012 election was rigged and the judgement of the petition again was corrupt.the petitioners had every legal right to do what they did and by so doing they educated the masses and strengthen our democracy. kwames' ndc believed they can control the state of affairs of our economy and now their in power they should focus and crack on with it rather than laying stupid blames undeservedly. the good people of Ghana deserve better but unfortunately all the ndc has done for them is insulted their intelligence. it rather sad and pathetic.

Mahama told Ghanaians that the supreme court case can not affect the economy why should people blame the petitioners. Konogo kaya government.

Sorry for saying...but Ghana will soon go into deep economic crisis which will deepen the poverty in this country.
The government is not interested en they don't even know what the word "macro economics" means. All respectiful authorities are warning..and often if they warn means it is already happening.
Ghana is falling and what are politicians of all sort doing? Fighting for power..because all of them want to skew that little bit money into their own pocket and take a plane with their family to live somewhere ells as kings.
Ghana stupid nation.
But note this..we Ghanaians abroad are monitoring the situation and after the fall, we will come back home and build a new, better and stronger Ghana.
The current people in Ghana are to blinded to act or even be able to do something.

It seems the only reliable information comes from offshore but even that is a little out of date. Clearly with growth at 8% and inflation at at least 11% there is negative real growth on Ghana now. Note what they say about the Cedi rate conflicts with what the BOG says.
The only solutions are to reduce the number and pays of public servants and start taxing the Big men.
WE NEED ACCOUNTABILITY N TRANSPARENCY IN GOVT!
