"Bad Aid" by Dambisa Moyo
thats the only reason behind these loans from imf. the Ghana govt artificially create the monetary and economic conditions in Ghana that we need the loans. They dilute the numbers. they dont care about the future repercussions or interest rate to ghana. once the multinational loans are issued, they jump.for joy like daycare kiddies, aben wo ha, our day niggas! some.sod cuts for show and presumed contracts are signed but the jobs will never see the light of day!
Corruption, Mismanagement and public sector inertia, redtape is the cause for all this mess and imf fuckers! We have no one to blame but us and no one will ditch us out. If your own family won't ditch you out of a grave. What do you expect from imf? Until we can find a solution to those issues listed. These corrupt politicians who steal don't even reinvest their stolen monies back in ghana. That's why ghana is suffering! Who are you waiting for to bring money into ghana? Remittances from "burgers" or imf dollars? Like my Oldman always use to say "you have a llooonnngggg way to.go"! Believe nothing you hear and 1/2 of what you see!!!

I have never heard of an insane and an insensitive Government in modern day politics like this NDC government,after bringing economic hardships to Ghanaians this NDC government wants to worsen the plight of Ghanaians by also bringing disease(Ebola) to them?Did stupid Ayiriga think of the economic constraints Ebola will bear on the Government and people of Ghana not talking of the lost of lives.Why won't the President of CAF sacrifice to host the 2015 AFCON in his own country?This is ridiculous, so corruption have blinded this NDC Government that they can't even reason for the safety of their own lives and the country they govern,JJ Rawlings these are rather the kind of people you have to line up at the shooting range and shoot their greedy bastard arsess.Jah save us from these vampires.

Hosting this tournament is all about making money, forget about the welfare of Ghanaians. But, somebody forgot to put on their thinking cap & realize that, Ghana stands in losing millions, if a tourist from these countries, unaware of being an ebola carrier, spreads this disease, then the money generated from this tournament is rather funded for battling the disease. Housekeepers working in hotels are probably more vulnerable as linen & towels use by these visitors could potentially have bodily fluids containing the virus. This scenerio is not far fetched or a means to create panic, it's reality.

What is wrong with us? Tackling disease and infection should be equaled to a war. Wake up Ghana! These politicians don't care a sh##### about us. Morocco is right. She cares for her children. She is aware there is crisis so she is thinking. Ghana, if oil, gold and many natural resources are not enough, what would CAN tournament profit do to your thievery accounts? Wake up from your slumber . One crony said "I'll make sure I'll go home in 4 years' with nothing less than $1000000 even when her total income for that period is not even close to a quarter of that amount. Ministry of 'f###off football boss what is your target . Do you guys think we are fools .. there is time for every THING !!!!! If Muntari did it Ghana will one day rise and choose a day to honor him! A day which will be set aside to just whip their stinky and fatty as##**€€##÷÷s till you explain why you're refusing to admit that you are square pegs in round holes. It's NOT a Revolution but just a holiday.

Come to think of this again and again, Maha and his cronies want to create another Woyorme. Considering the current hardships in the country, it is unfortunate that the Govt wants to host AFON 2015. An attempt to add the notorious Ebola to the plight of Ghanaians is a decision that lacks wisdom. Even our GFA and our national team and coach are all currently undergoing a postmoterm, why worry about 2015?

We for hear what Christopher Opoku is saying very well. CAF President and his cronies are there for their interest, so whatever means they will push for it to be hosted by hook or crook means they are for that. But as said by Chris, countries with better health system are running away from that, and we sit in Ghana with our shamble health system say we more willingly to host the AFCON 2015, the gov't and minister should visit our land frontiers and see things for themselves, only filling of names and passport numbers been recorded at the frontiers and they say our health system is better poised for EBOLA THREAT, they are disgrace to humanity. They want to wipe ordinary Ghanaian off, why?
What is so SPECIAL about AFCON 2015.
CAF. should learn, the game of soccer is about humanity. Postponement wouldn't distract CAF in any way,Issa Hayatou and his cronies are been mischievous. Ghana Gov't, NDC Gov't please learn, this will not add up to your votes but rather causing big time.

to our inept GFA officials,Ebola is real with death tolls in its thousands and counting,and if the decision makers are in a blatant doubt and stupid denial they should contact WHO for stats on this pandemic. Morocco's grounds for the postponement of the Nation Cup is of a sound and considered judgement,national safety and security ought to be the ultimate priority of every discerning and competent Government,CAF as a money spinning organisation prime concern is the financial benefit for its corrupt officials and cohorts at the expense of the obvious threat Ebola poses,Hope the GFA do not let their own greed impaired the their judgement on the heath risks hosting the tournament poses to our already cash strapped economy.Credit to Christopher Opoku for stating the obvious,factually, Ghana is in no financial state to host the Nation Cup with the added risk of Ebola.Good piece of journalism Chris.
