This amount is nothing compared to what AKUFFO ADDO and his gang of thieves and hyenas and buccaneers and pirates stole every year from the national Kitty. With economic prudence and diligence we shall overcome this hurdle. T ...

Trump closing the money tap of USAID is costing Ghana nothing. Zilch.

Why should the American taxpayer waste money on greedy Ghanaian civil servants and thieving politicians?
It is a curse to be an Ayigbe like FRANKIE, Dotcom or Rex psychologically they always feel their enemies are the problem.They struggle to think as part of the nation

Ghana is a poor country and must try to get an honest rulership to Grow.
Abacha alone stole half a billion dollars of Nigeria's money.Ghanaian leaders are more honest than that of Nigeria.
Absolutely!Most of these monies end in the pockets of those working in the offices and doesn't get to those they are meant for.This is why the projects end without making any impact.What Ghana truly needs is to work on stoppi ...

This is good US tax money should not be spent on corrupt nations like Ghana, we have every essential resources here but we go around begging and disgracing our selves for coins
Famous Ghanaian beggars lexicon: MEDAASE and NYAME NHYIRA WO.
Stopping of USAID is good for Ghana and so called beneficiary countries. USAID is not as was intend and we must applaud Prez Trump for his courageous action to scrap this wastage that is perpetuated for the benefit of a circ ...

No problem. Let's take it that thus is the current government' COVID 19. Let then manage the situation.
Who cares if monkey decides to run diarrhea
It should be canceled immediately,how many times has ghana used funds as directed
Cancel all aid to ghana now and let these foolish so called african leaders to use their brains and resources
Go and seek for funds from Russia. lol
You fool, this is not a matter of seeking for funds from Russia. This is a heavenly opportunity to gradually wean ourselves from dependency.
@Kwame you mean A fool? Really? I don't know where you are but I pray that you and your descendants run mad and stroll in the streets if you don't retract your statement. Did you think you can insult any person unprovoked and ...

Any curse be upon you.
What has Russia got to do with this discussion. You are following the western Russophobic narrative and when you are corrected you resort to threatening with the supernatural.
All the same I am sorry for calling you a fool. Accept my heartfelt apology and let bygones be bygones.
Uk and Europe should please follow suit we don’t any aid,these so called leaders steal more than that each year according to the auditor general
Oh yes we shall go to Russia to seek funds.Russia and China are more reliable friends of Africa.They helped us to get rid of western colonialism and exploitation.
You think Russia and china don’t have problems on their own to give ghana aid why do Ghanaians like begging like that it’s almost as if it’s in their dna to beg
"Donald Trump's closure of USAID" likely to become NDC's equivalent of "Russia-Ukrain war" in explaining our internal economic difficulties from 2025. Karma is really cold and impartial.
We don’t need trumu-trumu aid,it was all scam by Ghanaian politicians,99% of the money was going to politicians pocket
If we re- align our expenditures we can surmount this adversity. Declare a moratorium on purchase of V8 vehicles and other unnecessary expenses.
We don't want any excuses,and we don't care either,just deliver on your campaign promises, period
Even JAICA and others should go. these are neocolonialist agencies, their absence will tell who a true african is.
TRUMP PLS DONT GIVE US ANY AID IN GHANA, OUR LEADERS ARE JUST MISUSING THE FUNDS FOR THEIR PERSONAL GAINS, I LIKE THAT IDEA, PLS TRUMP DONT GIVE US, WICKED CRIMINAL LEADERS
Upgrading Ghana's agriculture can help the country a lot. Close the US military base in Ghana.
Very happy President Donald Trump cut the funds if Ghana over sixty years (60) we gets our freedom from the Colonial Masters and we can't take care of myself and Thank you President Trump let's Africa Leaders the Money that's ...

Trump should close the USAID down with immediate effect how can a country with all the blessing from God and our ancestors depend upon USAID for 137 million dollars this amount of money is someone earing money.
All aids to nations should have expiry date. African dependency on aid needs to be reset. This is a wake up call. Learn to stand on your own two feet.

It is the best thing that ever happened to Ghana. We should be truly independent not just say it !!!
Trump the white supremacist,racist and a felon president can go to hell!! Ghana can exist woyhout America.
Coat Ghana what ??? Complete nonsense. Ameroca doesn't owe us to give us any thing for free . Pure nonsense.
I find it good so that all this Countries would do things on their own and not get easy money to share into their account.
I bet the bulk of the money goes into people's pockets.

Folks- We should learn to be self-sufficient. Depending on such funds has made us vulnerable.
Why should they fund you, when the money is going to buy V8s and fund Hajj? What would you do?
"Donald Trump's closure of USAID" could become the NDC's version of "Russia-Ukrain war" in explaining the reasons for the continuous ailing of the economy. I love karma.
Ghana is not the only country that is going to be impacted by the closure of USAID by proposed by Trump and this should not lead to a new tax imposed on Ghanaians. Africa has enough resources to be financially independent of ...

Good, less money for Mahama and his thieves to create, loot and share.
This should have happened during the ugly ape's days.He and his gang of Akyem mafia looted like there's no tomorrow.The bane of all of Ghana's challenges was the coming of Akuffu Addo and his looting brigade.
Let's see how many of the Akyem mafia your conman, Mahama, will put in jail. Some of you are so shallow-minded that your minds are toned by the likes of Ablakwa and Kevin Taylor. I feel so sorry for mother Ghana

Mad dog Trump can take his money.Ghana will continue to be Ghana. We prefer to live in poverty than to be America"s poodle.Trump aka Stormy Daniels is a racist,white supremacist.
Great news, Donald.
African leaders have been stealing these funds.
It's high time African leaders began to look within to solve their problems.
No Western nation can build Africa, stupid idiots!
It is good in the right direction to stop the USAID because the money goes to the pockets of the politicians not what its meant for.
Very informative, who is the columnist? Pls let the writers have their names in the Articles somewhere. Thank you.
I think we should be very careful about these numbers. The USAID support were largely out of the budgetary process of Ghana and included their consultants and employees and the cost of running their operations. This provides ...
