So Ato Forson didn't tell Sam George the truth. This means that Sam George was barking out of ignorance. With these kind of babies at the helm of affairs, Ghana is going nowhere as a country.

All the NPP bastards can leave our country to another country if they want. They are enemies of our state that retire our progress since independence. For 8 years they have connived with foreign companies to cheat Ghanaians for their selfish gains. Right now the right government is in place with patriotic citizens that are working for the people. Sam George, God bless you and give you long life. Those satanic NPP people can go to hell where they belong.

No Npp has failed ghanains for 8 solid years of allowing these taxes to go on. At least under this government the truth is out now. If they dont do anything about reducing these taxes, ghanains would know both parties are the same. I believe ndc will do something about it to prove to us the differences between them and npp who knew the problem and for 8years did nothing about it. Bravo Sam George and ndc. My advice to you is honorably resign because as a minister you should have known all these details. Now gghanains see you as a lying minister whose lazy approach let to his exposure as someone who does not research before coming to the negotiating table. Your office has failed you. You must begin to pick competent personel to work with. This is my advice.

FtT, you are just too dumb to understand what Sam George is doing. Even if you take the taxes as they say it's. Do the mathematics and see if Ghana deserves that high price.

This is what I have been hammering on since Sam George waged 'war' against multichoice. Sam George knew this but he is trying to please his boss and instead of convincing his boss to remove some of the taxes, he rather attacked multichoice. Look at VAT rate of Nigeria 7.5% and Ghana's 17.5% plus others and you want multichoice to reduce its subscriptions whilst gov't continues to claim its taxes fully. There's nothing in Ghana which is not expensive so I find it difficult to understand why only communication minister is on the heels of multichoice. Energy minister where are you? Do same to OMCs to reduce prices of fuel as gov't is adamant on the taxes imposed on goods and services. It's taxes which are killing Ghanaians but not the actual prices. From onset, I knew Sam George won't succeed.

As a minister did he bother to find out how come Ghana was paying more for dstv subscriptions before asking for a reduction? Did he know what goes into pricing? And yet, he is a MINISTER! God save Ghana!!!

sam george should have done his homework before embarking on this attention seeking venture. More reason why it should have been done in the boardroom instead of social media.

To know the truths or lies about what Charles Owiredu is saying of GH and 9JA dstv subs as a discerning Ghanaian, request a copy of aa itemised dstv subscription payment receipt and you would know.

Most of yall on here are not even dstv subs yet politics has eaten your brains like a canker worm. Therefore fact finding and verification is not part of your levels of intellect.

If this information is true then Sam did not do his research well to demand a reduction in dstv prices. Sam George should tell us how much taxes are on dstv subscription charges in Ghana and that of Nigeria.

This man can lie ooo. Give him a calculator, subtract the tax in Nigeria from their price. Now multiply what you got by 21.9% and see if you will get what we pay for in Ghana. The media could not grill him. He is a waste on the committee, contributing nothing, yet rushes to the Media for personal gain.
He should come out and deny if DSTV has not offered him a free subscription?
