  you must stop the political blindness and wake up to the reality, give suggestions and ideas instead of attacking the trumpeter .
  In todays world , and in Ghana who doesn't used internet or tv or telephone ?
  so if the prices these service providers are charging comes affordable down would it benefit only NDC members ?
  what the MP is asking for is very legitimate- if it has been done in Europe and the government , institutions , companies and individuals are all benefiting from it, why can't we do same in Ghana ?

  THE NDC INCOMPETENT PARTY HAS NOT JUST ONE AMBULANCE ON THE STREETS OF GHANA FOR THE 27 YEARS THEY RULED GHANA!
  
  The NDC criminal party is using Okudzeto Ablakwa to attack Ofori Atta for releasing the funds to repair and service the 300+ ambulance that Akufo-Addo imported under the 1 District 1 ambulance program, the program that has since been upgraded to the National Ambulance Services or the Ghana National Paramedics Ambulance Services. One thing that the rotten sharp teeth Ablakwa doesn’t realize is that building or setting up an ambulance service or paramedics cost so much money that exceeds the average layman’s understanding. The reason only advanced healthcare providing countries are able to implement such a costly program.
  
  But thanks to President Akufo-Addo, a man who spent most of his childhood life in the UK and accustomed to how important it is to set up reliable healthcare services has given Ghanaians the opportunity to enjoy something or services that is only available in the advanced countries, services that only few African countries have in place.
  
  Aside from South Africa and some few other countries in Africa, Ghana has now become a leading providers of first aid response services. Why now — after 67 years of independence? What the NDC, Okudzeto, and other past governments have refused to divulge to the Ghanaian people is the cost of running or establishing a National Public Paramedics or Ambulance Services. Right now, according to this year’s book value, an average Mercedes Benz Splinter fully equipped type 1 ambulance with defibrillators and other advanced health equipments like the ones we are currently enjoying in Ghana cost about $ 250,000 — $300,000 apiece.
  
  Ask sekankan Ablakwa if he has any idea about my assertions? He won’t know because he is a local King Kong who has just little exposure in the Western World medical settings. Ofui! He thinks ambulances are like those Aboboyaa tricycles that Mahama and his criminal brothers imported and flooded the Ghanaian streets with. So why did Richard Jakpa, the NDC military dishonorably discharged officer actually chose to buy those Kentengo non equipped Ford Vans to Ghana with the aim of getting those guys at Kumasi Magazine Artisan community to transform them into a makeshift ambulances?
  
  And how much is Jakpa accused of spending on those Kentengo eyesores of ambulances? You see: the goon doesn’t understand why Ken Ofori Atta has doled out about $39 million to service and maintain our existing ambulance after they have been in use for more than five years or must’ve ran out of manufacture’s warranty. Does the goon even understand what manufacture’s warranty is ! Kuraasenii Ablakwa!
  
  Does Okudzeto want Ghana to go and buy new ambulances after these current ones go out of services? Yessss ooo! The NDC and John Bentua Mahama allowed Kufour’s fleet of ambulances to go wasted instead of maintaining them. So they are planning to do the same thing with the current ones should the unthinkable happen— and they find themselves at the Jubilee House! OVER OUR DEAD BODIES! I SHALL RETUR

  what you need to do is formulate the data cost in the communication act of parliament
  There must be a package cost-
  what does package cost means - it meant that,
  all the Telecommunication service providers in the country must charge a package cost instead of unit cost.
  for eg
  an act of parliament that give an autonomous line charges to to GBC and Ghana Telecom.
  what it means is that
  TV CHANNELS, Data and telephone lines all belongs to these 2 bodies that belong to the state . so if
  MNT want a package of it, - it must hire the lines from GBC and GH telecom.
  The cost of the package which must be sold by GBC and GH Telecom is GHS 40.
  MTN would buy this from GBC and GH Telecom Then MTN would sell the package to it subscribe for GHS 90 a month.
  what it means is that
  if the subscriber buy this package from the MTN he the subscribe has access of TV CHANNELS, LOCAL CALLS AND INTERNET FOR THE WHOLE MONTH.
  This would allow individuals institutions and companies to at least budgeted for their social networking without any problem.
  The world is moving fast to the cyber networking and it is only these type of policies that could enhance it.
  companies are there to make profits,
  so if there is no regulation that supervise them ,
  just asking them to reduce data cost means nothing to them,
  but
  if there is a law that forbid them to not sell the package above GHS 100per month, they would work within the remits of the field.
  we need to do recalibrations of all the state institutions to retain some of the profits the expatriate companies are making in the country.
  it is very disingenuous to allow these companies to dictate their own prices , that is never done in any developed country not alone developing country like Ghana.
  we have opened our doors to wide, we need to wisely close the gab

  Relax, rabbit woth sharp teeth. The government is already looking favourably into it. You want to make it look like you "forced" the government to reduce data cost...when it dies happen. Always seeking credit.

  Thank you, Mr. Ablakwa. The data 'pay as you go' is very expensive and a rip off! The monthly unlimited data, talk and text is much better. One can comfortably browse the Web, and enjoy quality time. In the US, the phone companies, Verizon, T Mobile etc, give their customers many options to choose from. Ie: unlimited talk, text/data. US$60/50
  and talk text and limited data US$25. The same can be done in Ghana. It's not fair for MTN/all phone companies to present customers with only the 'pay as you go' option. Mr. Ablakwa, please do your best to fight for these phone companies to give us the monthly package. Thanks in advance, sir for all your help.

  The NCA report is outdated. It's an over age report. With digitalisation you can easily compare prices in the USA, Europe, West Africa, East Africa, even data cost in Nigeria is far far cheaper than Ghana today. The NCA should be honest and stop playing the ostrich.
