Yes, NDC is wiser because if a top member of the NDC has made such foolish, defeatful message live onradio like Ken Agyepong made only days to the 2012 elections, the NDC, as serious as they are would have set him aside.At least the NDC wouldn't have him at their fore-front.Yet, a stupid party like the NPP still has this man spewing garbage everyday, with even some people asking him to be a flagbearer. THIS IS THE MOST STUPID USELESS, BRAINLESS, CHILDISH AND BOVINE THING ANY POLITICAL PARTY I THIS WORLD WILL EVER DO.A man makes a very terrible and horrible tribal comment and all u do is embrace him. And somehow, u want the affects tribes to be stupid enough to vote for u. NPP IS SENSELESS AND VERY FOOLISH, because they disregard the intelligence of Ghanaians. Which party in the US will uphold a top politician who makes racial slurs in this day and age. That's the worst damage one can make to a party's chance of winning elections.As an Ashanti, I wonder if I'll ever vote for a party if it's MP or top member calls for Ashanti's to be killed llove on radio or tv. HELL NO. If I won't vote for such a party, I don't expect others to do the same.

IF THEY CAN'T TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN GARMENT, WHAT CAN THEY OFFER THE WHOLE NATION?
Vote the NDC PARTY OUT in 2016.
THEY HATE AND MAKE FUN OF THE PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED. THEY HAVE NO RESPECT FOR ANYONE EXCEPT MEMBERS OF THEIR GROUP.
(1) THEY HATE OUR WOMEN. Calling for a law that will allow them to stone women when they make mistakes. They are not satisfied with stripping our women naked and whipping them on the streets. '3y3 kanea 3y3 haan'.
(2)THEY ARE CONSTANTLY INSULTING THE CLERGY
(3) THEY SCORN THE PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED. Ivor's Greenstreet's condition is constantly made fun of by the NDC PARTY. They said the CRIPPLE MUST STAND UP TO SEE OUR 'GOOD WORKS'. NDC have NO HEART.
VOTE THE PROMISEMANIAC, CLUELESS, VISIONLESS, IDEAS STARVED AND HOPELESS YOUNG MAN CALLED MAHAMA OUT IN 2016.

Don't Convert POLY to University
Instead of building more poly, teacher training and university in the various regions. They are busy pouring cologne on dead animals carcass. By converting poly into technical universities, universities into ashawo institutes and teacher training into ndc propanda colleges. Then they will inflate the costs involved in doing the switch. Price of a mere paper clip sef will be inflated! Tweaaaaa ghana ain't going nowhere under these Rawlings babies with sharp teeth! Devoid of common sense. Parliament, The Opposition must step and and stop this foolishness ASAP. Okujeto another stinky bastard, bikini retard!
That's all these ndc people know. They don't have any new, innovative ideas up their sleeve. They will create the need for such bogus technical universities. Trump up the budgetary finances and costs involved in setting up these technical universities. Then, you do the math..Chobology!
Do you know why we have community colleges/ polys and universities? Each serves a purpose in society you know. Use the Internet and do your research. Go.unto the website of any community college in North America and look at the programs they offer. The first is geared towards hands on learning like mechanic, hairdressing, automobile mechanic, furniture making, tailoring, lab/computer technician, air conditioning repair, hvac, radio/tv producer, chef, police foundations, nursing, etc. After 2yrs,.grads can use their credits unto university, get a job or start their own business. Look at the financial impacts on society? University education is more theory and research based. This is the system adopted in many western nations. So if you close.down all polys and turn them into university. You have automatically wiped out the chance for any learning of professional hands on training, job creation in the interim and the future. U want to train the Ghanaian populace to be technocrats, bureaucrats and theory/research grads.forever? U think you know better than educators in North America who have poly/community colleges and also universities? If it was in the best interest of their children and nation to close down all poly/community colleges and turn them into places of higher education like a university. Don't you think they would have done that long ago? If you want to more polys, universities just build more of them in the communities,.regions that don't have them. Soon, these ndc fools will.turn stadiums into airports, churches into markets, kantamanto into hospital and have the nerve to justify their actions. FOOLS! Abdul, a filthy imbecile like you have the nerve to call me stupid?

For me to take the Ghanaian polytechnics seriously, they will need to liaise/work better with the Ghanaian Universities on the academic content of their programs to be able to efficiently transfer graduates from the Polytechnics to the Universities.
For example, if you complete a 3 year prog at Accra Poly you should be able to enter level 400 or at the minimum, level 300 of any University in Ghana.
This avoids wastage of resources that we seem to have now

Nowadays every storey building has been licensed to operate as a university in Ghana. Why do we need so many universities which are spawning a generation of functional illiterates only good for cyber crime? Why don't we encourage vocational and technical skills like catering, automotive technology, Electrical technology and carpentry? Theses are the skills that will help the middle class succeed as these skills are always in demand and technicians are able to quickly join the workforce usually, starting their own businesses right after training and not end up with useless degrees in psychology and drama which are good for nothing.
A week ago, I hired a guy to lay my pavement blocks at my house. He told me he could finish the work in a week at a labor cost of 2500.00 Gh cedis. He works with one assistant. 2500.00 GH cedis is about $600.00 dollars. Even by U.S standards this is a good weekly income. This guy has no degree and never sat in any fancy college classroom but makes a pretty good income which is about twice what an experienced banker with a university degree makes, that is if he is lucky to find work after graduating.
This idea that "it is cool" to be a university graduate has encourage greedy business men to convert family homes into universities. I can count nearly 30 universities in Accra alone. More universities than the San Francisco Bay area with a population of 11 million. Why does a country like Ghana need so many universities when we have no jobs for the huge number of graduate unemployed cyber criminals?
When you have Okudzeto Ablakwa in charge of education this is what you get. Pitiful leadership by the government.
