The best government with the best cost-saving and efficient policies. Just grab a Ghana Card if u cant afford... simple!!
kwashiavi, use your Ghana card to travel to Europe, ofui.
Don't mind the fool. A bio card would either not have your travel history or stored on the card alongside the data of who your grandmum is?
Can foreign nations edit your bio card and add your travel history?

If you can afford to buy a $700 ticket to Europe, you should be able to afford GHC500 for a Passport. If you only need a form of identification for instance at the bank etc no need for a Passport. Go grab a Ghana Card.

Don't insult someone as dumb! Will you accept to be insulted when you quoted 500 GH Cedis as the passport fee instead of 700 GH Cedis. Check the facts!
Correct haha
Have you ever complained about visa fees, fees you pay and there’s no guarantee of any benefit in return, especially if your visa application is rejected. Why should government continue to subsidize passport?
Is it that some of you are brain dead and that's why you soo much irrational? Is the fees going to serve as a deterrent to travel, otherwise who would increase prices to above 500% with no change in earnings? And you are rati ...

Why is most Ndc people don't reason up before making a comment? They are always insulting Why? If you can afford to buy airfare and also visa fees why is it hard to pay for a passport fees?
Why does your government have to suck the very life out of its citizens. Return the cedi to 4 codis to 1 dollar and citizens would have no complaints.

What part of the card will embassies stamp their visas on? Gyimee
You are very stupid. Passport has never been primary national id. It was voters id. Passports has been for travelling . Can u use a ghana card to fly to any major country in the world?
every gh has the right their citizenry right to own a passport but if ou price it out of their reach due to your own greed. what do you expect them to do? lower the rate
The arrogance of some officials of the current government is unnerving. Does this Minister think that Ghanaians do not know the difference between a passport and the Ghana Card? Doesn't she know that Ghanaians who apply for p ...

Stupid leaders we have indeed
Bunch of criminals with onedning lie
Passport is for traveling document only
How much does the ordinary worker earn a month. Every citizen has the right to travel. Let's understand this when we start increasing fees all over the place. Now we are making traveling for the privilege few.

How did you get there with only Ghana card. Do you think if you can arrive at Manchester airport with only Ghana card right from Kotoka airport?
Truly, the rich never consider the poor in decision making.
They talk nonsense to the poor when they are at the top thinking the whole world belong to them.
So look at a whole minister explaining this with this 2x4 explanations. Common sense is even common. Increasing passport fees by 500% in an election year! Shane on them!
Is this woman serious after her being called to the Bar? Whatever she is, she should remember that passport is a requirement to obtain Ghana Card, register as a voter and to guarantee in some cases.
Is this the same NPP we knew in opposition?
It's our fault as Ghanaians. They have stolen our monies and they are now rich so the see and treat us as a piece of trash
Continue to be arrogant. Ghanaians are watching you. These guys speak to us like we the citizens are not stakeholders in Ghana. Ghanaians will aproot your party like casava.
Some people don't know what it means to be a leader, hence they open their mouths at any angle and speaks anyhow.
She needs orientation on communication.
This woman paa respected you ankasa, not knowing you were so foolish
How do you get it from outside to travel into the country, and why can't you use it travel outside? this your speech doesn't make sense
We hear u wai .. Don’t worry madam cos dec is just around the corner and The wiser Ghanaians will vote for u to continue this madness.. Only a shallow minded fool will defend this madness all because of tribal politics..
Why are all Ghanaian ministers useless like that. So all these politicians went school? . Really. Ghana card ?
If Parliament Is Fully Aware And That Even The Cost Of Each Of The Type Of Passport Mentioned Was Given By Parliament Why Then Was The Ranking Member Of Foreign Affairs At The Minority Side Ranting And Blabbing? SMH
The pride and the stupidity of this woman will not end us anywhere
BUT WHY IS EVERY SINGLE MINISTER UNDER THIS STUPID PRESIDENT ACTING LIKE demi gods???. SHIRLEY AYORKOR YOU ARE A VERY FOOLISH WOMAN FOR SPITTING THIS RUBBISH FROM YOUR DIRTY MOUTH. YOUR TIME IS VERY CLOSE FOOLS.
This I stand with you. Facto!!!.
If you can pay huge sum of money to Japa, Jus add the passport cost.
Ayorkor Botchwey must understand that passport is international I'd. Every body needs a passport to travel.
Please kindly check what British Passport Renewal cost before anyone start making this a Political Issue. Ghana is paying peanuts as compare what we're paying here.
Pay Ghanaians as people are paid in the UK.
I don't blame her,as she is sitting there, she makes free passports for his children and siblings and she is telling Ghanaians if we can't afford it is not her problem.We hear, TIME WILL TELL.
What an insult!
Thank you
There's too much arrogance in this government. How do you expect the person to travel out and come back into the country using Ghana card???
