GHANA'S FUCKING LEADERS DO NOT DESERVE TO LIVE.

THIS KWASIA BA TERKPER IS ALWAYS FIXATED ON GHANA BORROWING. HE NEVER TALKS ABOUT THE NEED TO OPTIMIZE THE LEVERAGING OF THE COUNTLESS NATURAL RESOURCES TO MODERNIZE GHANA'S GROWTH POTENTIAL.

THE WEALTHY TAX-FREE GULF ARABS ARE SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE IMF AND OTHER BRETTON-WOODS INSTITUTIONS.

THERE MUST BE A BLOODY REVOLUTION IN GHANA TO EXTERMINATE ALL OF THEM BEFORE LIGHT WILL APPEAR AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL IN GHANA.

OUR SUCCESSIVE LEADERS, EXCEPT NKRUMAH, ARE NOT HUMAN BEINGS WITH HUMAN SYMPATHY.

AKUFO-ADDO AND HIS APPOINTEES CAME IN TO LOOT. ONLY A FOOL THINKS AKUFO-ADDO CAME IN TO GROW GHANA'S ECONOMY AND DEVELOPMENT!1 second ago
ONLY A FOOL THOUGHT AKUFO-ADDO, LIKE KUFUOR, CAME IN TO GROW GHANA, GHANAIANS, AND THE ECONOMY OF GHANA PLC.

APART FROM NKRUMAH OF BLESSED MEMORY, ALL OTHER GHANAIAN PRESIDENTS AND THEIR APPOINTEES CAME INTO GOVERNMENT TO LOOT OUR COUNTRY.

THAT'S WHY THEY SNEAKED ARTICLE SHIT OFFICE HOLDERS "CONFETTI" BENEFITS INTO GHANA'S FRAUDULENT CONSTITUTION TO ENSURE THAT WHILE THEY ENJOY LIFE TILL THEY DROP DEAD, ORDINARY GHANAIAN TAXPAYERS WILL CONTINUE TO SUFFER TO REPAY IRRESPONSIBLE STATUTORY LOANS AND OTHER DEBTS TILL THY KINGDOM COME.

THE ULTIMATE OBJECTIVE OF THOSE ARTICLE SHIT OFFICE HOLDERS IS TO KEEP GHANAIAN TAXPAYERS IN
PERPETUAL SUBJUGATION UNDER CONDITIONS OF GRINDING POVERTY, CRASS DEPRIVATION AND MASSIVE UNDERDEVELOPMENT. THESE ARE WHAT WE SEE TODAY.

THAT'S WHAT WE SEE IN GHANA TO THIS DAY, DESPITE THE UNCOUNTABLE NATURAL RESOURCES AT OUR DISPOSAL.

THATS WHY THE VERY WEALTHY TAX-FREE GULF ARAB STATES OF QATAR, THE UAE, SAUDI ARABIA, KUWAIT, ETC ARE OVER 1000 YEARS AHEAD OF GHANA IN EVERY GOOD THING, ALTHOUGH THEY DISCOVERED AND STARTED EXPORTING ONLY CRUDE OIL AND LPG JUST UNDER 40 YEARS AGO.

GHANA'S LEADERS ARE NOT HUMAN BEINGS. THEY'RE DEVILS, AND IRRESPONSIBLE DEVILS DO NOT DESERVE TO LIVE. THAT'S WHY JJ RAWLINGS STARTED SLAUGHTERING THEM LIKE PIGS IN AN ABBATOIR.

NOW GHANAIANS ARE REALIZING WHY JJ STARTED ELIMINATING THEM, MAINLY THE AKANS, LIKE APES.

It’s so easy to implement this policy and the positive impact of it will propel the growth of the economy.

I pray and only hope that John Mahama will use his 24hrs economy to provide jobs for the unemployed among the 6.3 million voters who gave their votes to him.As for the remaining 12million ppl we expect nothing.

Security and freedom of movement to transact business will be key factors for successful implementation of the policy.
Armed robbery must be curtailed, community policing and vigilant groups be set up all over Ghana to safeguard citizens life and properties as the economy grows.
The highways must be safe for travellers and service deliveries. Financial institutions and strategic economic infrastructures must be protected 24 hours, 7 days for the next 4 years.
Welcome 24 hour evonomy.

Weiy, vigilant groups? Well no comment. The 24-hour economy policy is a produce of NDC's propaganda machine. It was nothing but a cocktail of lies to win power. But this time around we don't mind forcing the donkey to river even if it won't drink the water. John Dramani will forced to implement it even though he can't and he knows it. Anyone who think a country like Ghana can run 24-hours other than the factories, security services, health, and emergency services should seek help asap.

The man just paraphrased his former state that "He is not a magician" to create jobs over night when he said you are not going to create jobs by a single stroke of pen. Yet, you were everywhere criticizing the current government which created more jobs than you did from 2008 to 2016. One more thing, your explanation of 24-hour economy is different from what you promised Ghanaians. You said you will provide 24-hour security for business to run day and night. 3 shifts in government departments, 24-hour discotheques (ridiculous though), etc. You ran away from the debate but you can run away from your own shadow now. Don't hide in the industrial sector, they're already doing 24-hours with 3 shifts. Oh Ghanaians! SMH

The man lied in his campaign that he will give chicken those who want to become poultry farmers and machines for those who want to bake bread for free. I am beginning to think this man was just talking to a crowd of Ghanaians who did not listened to him and take everything he said seriously. If he fail to do these promises then he is a failure and a liar and l know he will abuse what he said. The 24 hour economy promised had changed in his speech now. What a liar . I cannot trust Mahama for a second. Even him mentioning IMF program makes him the biggest liar ever in our politics. The fake promises is looming now. Mahama will always be a bad leader as he lies a lot. Mahaliar is here.

I think John Mahama is forgetting about one crucial element in the 24-Hour Economy concept.
I think Mahama wants to talk about structural changes in the economy.
It's not enough to increase productivity if there's no strategy for aggressive commercial activities.
A lot of workers don't necessarily bring onboard the desired economic profit and progress.
It's very important to increase certain produce that we may even become We can't just increase productivity without looking at the end results.Tnx.

President-Elect Mahama, the 24-hour economy is not some magic wand that will instantly revive the economy.

It's a demand and supply issue. When many citizens have strong purchasing power, their demand for goods and services increase. The increased demand naturally triggers increased production and supply. That's when 2 and 3 shifts become necessary.

IT IS NOT THE OTHER WAY ROUND.

You give incentives to producers of goods and services to increase supply, and citizens do not patronise,or buy, because they do not have the money, producers will certainly make loses and will revert to the 1 shift system.

The 24-hour economy you see in developed countries have EVOLVED over long periods.

Please get good education on this and do not throw our scarce resources down the drain. The Agbesi Woyomes, Ationu Tamakloes, and the many other crooks in the NDC will rush to take the incentives and have nothing to show at the end of the day.
