    Madam Minister, MMT must be privatized. Unfortunately we are incapable of managing state assets. I was at Takoradi MMT Yard today and I was overwhemled with what I saw. Government must rather allow private holdings to manage ...

    In every business there are targets that must be met. Government must set targets for MMT and if they are not met, the whole management team must go!!! No excuses!!!!

    @ obrefo. Because JAK was honest $5000 was doled out to each NPP parliamentarians to approve sale of Ghana Telecom for peanuts. Tell us how much J A Kronfour took as his cut. Have you forgotten? So come again, NPP desperado!

    Kuffour bought Ghana Telecom back from Telekom Malaysia, who bought it for $38million from the NDC.
    He sold it to Vodafone for more than $900million. So, Moses, tell me, $38million and $900million, which one is peanuts?

  • Marquis 8 years ago

    If MMT is facing managerial problems, the solution is more assets to mismanage? Bugdati - Another Northern XXX

    Metro Mass Transit must survive and should not be neglected.

  • Marfo 8 years ago

    So you people in government still think Ghana can't build buses. Haaba

  • Mustapha Kamal 8 years ago

    Govt of Ghana must leave the road transport for the populace bcos a govt can never manage road transportation. All that is needed is to maintain the roads.
    Look at New York in America and how people patronize public trans ...

  • Farmer 8 years ago

    Busses from China are for the huge kick backs only. They will break down on average within 6 months most being beyond repair due to the high cost.

    So the deal is only for 295 Scanias which again have no maintenance base i ...

    Radio presenters must bring this minister to question her if she will personally buy Chinese car to drive.
    The problem is not about buying more buses, it's lack of management. The company should generate income to expand an ...

  • kwaku, Edmonton 8 years ago

    This is a waste of money. Ordering buses is not a problem but maintenance. We have seen this many a times starting from Neoplan. I believe 100% that somebody has already made money out of the purchase because used buses ha ...
