MAHAMA IS VERY NAIVE. HE TALKS LIKE A SIX-YEAR OLD. TALK IS CHEAP! THAT'S MAHAMA FOR YOU! HE'S STILL DRINKING IMF/WORLD BANK LOANS SO HOW ARE YOU STANDING ON YOUR OWN? IMF/WORLD BANK ARE OWNED AND CONTROLLED BY WESTERN NATIONS, YOUR SLAVE MASTERS! SO HOW CAN YOU STAND ON YOUR OWN WHEN YOU STILL OWE THEM LOANS REPAYMENTS?

INDEED, NAIVITY IS IN PLENTY SUPPLY AMONG GHANA'S CLUELESS LEADERS.

GHANA IS A HOPLESSLY MANAGED AND OVER-FUCKED UP OVER-LOOTED AND BANKRUPTED "ECOMINI", SO WHAT GHANA "ECOMINI" AND FINANCE ARE THEY SHAPING? NONESENSE WRITEUP!

I RESLLY DO NOT KNOW WHEN GHANAIANS, THEIR LEADERS AND JOURNOS WILL BE CIVILIZED.

WITH ONLY REFINED CRUDE OIL AND NATURAL GAS EXPORT EARNINGS, THE WEALTHY TAX-FREE GULF ARABS HAVE CLEARLY DEMONSTRATED SEVERALLY THAT THEY ARE FAR AHEAD OF, AND CIVILIZED THAN UNCIVILIZED EFUOM GHANAIANS AND OTHER AFRICANS PLUS THEIR THIEVING IRRESPONSIBLE EFUOM "MUMU" LEADERS COMBINED.

GHANAIAN LEADERS SEE ONLY BEYOND THEIR NOSES - NO DIRECTION AND CERTAINLY NOT PURPOSE-DRIVEN FOR THE COMMON GOOD.

SO WHAT ECONOMY AND FINANCE ARE THOSE 5 WOMEN SHAPING? FOKKO! JUST COPY AND PASTE JUNKIES.

NO WONDER ATTA-MILLS SARCASTICALLY CALLED GHANA'S ECONOMY "ECOMINI", MEANING A HOPELESSLY FUCKED UP BANKRUPPTED HEAVILY-INDEBTED ECONOMY WITHOUT DIRECTION AND PURPOSE.

The gap between capacity and ability is like the distance from the Earth to the Sun.Africa can never stand on its own if we keep getting Presidents like John Mahama.

Nonsense! You people are sick. He is not only saying it, but he is doing it. You haters of your own land will die in the most unpeaceful form. He should say it loud. The louder you say it to the evil people like Donald Trump, the more determined we will be in the march to self-reliance.

Some of you already prefer to go work as cleaners or bouncers at drinking bars in the western countries, just to send small monies home to build houses and return at your fu.king old ages to die within a few years of your return, without enjoying those houses. Go ahead and do that and leave the realization and marching of Africa to greatness, led by visionary and courageous leaders, such as Abrahim Toare, John Mahama, Paul Kagame etc. alone.

What did the idiotic sellout Nana Addo get from America by falsely accussing Burkina Faso of working with Wagner to distabliser Ghana?

@ Concerned Citizen. Good one. The critics of Mahama above are so naive and uneducated that they even think that the socio-economic details of this country are secrets known to Ghanaians only. The reality is that, there are people in other countries who pknow more about the details of this country than we do ourselves. The situation becomes even more funny when we consider the fact that we actually depend on some of these countries for handouts just to keep our economies afloat. So what is the need to be discreet to your lenders?

Joke of the century, I wish Akrobeto said. Mr President, if that is the case then stop the globetrotting. You are begging other nations outside Africa to employ your nurses and you are daydreaming.

How? When we can't even manage waste? Always we go to IMF for even policy credibility! We have 90 year old people stealing elections...let's try and fix ourselves before we start to talk about such things. Let's not forget the person who said Ghana beyond aid. Let's check ourselves and be realistic.

useless talks nkoaaa, a country that cannot manufacture even a tooth pick or manches. African leaders with this kind of talk have nothing to show always. Africa is full of serious corruption and uncapable to fight it yet Africa can stand on it own. Always creating problems for innocent people. If Europe should disconnect internet from Africa where would you Africa be? mouth mouth saaaa. nkwasiasem saaaaaaa. Even Ghana here you are unable to manage and control the market. People do what suits them and innocent are suffering like never before. People of Ghana are not happy with your government, Mahama.

With corrupt leaders like John Mahama who has only become rich after becoming president, how can Africa stand on its own? For Ghana and Africa to achieve this aim, the greedy and corrupt must be eliminated
