Watch how shameless NPP start blaming others after leaving a mess behind. Apart from enriching themselves for 8 years, what policy did they implement successfully?

Disturbing? When will you believe there are no beds. Government officials are into womanising and buying houses for young girls instead of prioritising Ghana's economic needs.

Furnish the hospitals with beds. But meantime. Why can't the patients go to other hospitals in Accra ? Korle Bu is not the only hospital in Accra.

Ghana this has to stop!!!! It is a disgrace to our national integrity. Are we that poor as a nation? I urge all Africans to watch the YouTube channel called "Bantucitydiaries" to understand why African is as it is. The YouTuber dropped a piece few days ago entitled : "Africa : Incompetence Masks as Corruption". A must watch video.

We are taught to go to school, pass exams and come out to be speaking big english. Our brains are dead. Population is growing but there is no concomitant growth in infrastructure. The same thing is happening in our schools. Schools that were built to accommodate 250 students now accommodate more than 10,000 students. We are only interested in stealing public funds to feel big. The doctors, nurses, teachers, headteachers etc have all become some sycophants. They never tell the powers that be the real situation. Instead, they are in bed with them and drink the tea together because they all have political ambitions. Truly, Ghana is a shithole country.

Maybe a little explanation will help you. NPP is being blamed because for 8 years they were in power they didn't complete any hospital project, not even those u der construction they inherited; I mean a functioning hospital, not a building. Are you saying the situation doesn't exist because pictures have been joined? Don't be an ostrich. I don't think you have any right to shame the writer.

What kind of government do we have now? Is it a government for all, or just a few? This is a shame to the country. Cocoa farmers are not paid since November last year, teachers have not been paid for almost a year, nurses have not been paid almost a year, electricity bills have been increased, water bills have been increased, fuel prices have jumped up, the youths have no jobs, etc, etc. So can we say we have a government in Ghana? The answer is NO. We only have a few people who are enjoying with their families and milking the country dry. Is this the fucking " reset " we were told about? Is this not the same fucking friends and family government? What the hell.Are they not men in the country? What can this azaa pepenii and his cronies claim to have accomplished after One year in office? This is ridiculous and it's time the citizens rise up, demonstrate on the streets to let this idiot Mahama knows that the country doesn't belong to him and his family.......nonsense.

This is not a case of no beds. But rather an over crowded ward space. Where do you want the extra bedsto fit . This is a solid case of citizens getting sick from the effects of poisoned galamsey river and water bodies used to water foodstuff for consumption. Plastic added to oil to maximise profits when frying food. Fake medication been sold , all sorts. This has nothing to do with no beds. Where will extra beds fit if the wards size is small. Korle bu buildings need massive expansion. The korle bu hospital lands were sold to private individuals during acheampong regime and that area became zoti . The landscape of korle bu hospital used to be massive but greediness of political leaders has lead to the landscape shrinking . Lets not always blame no bed . What is happening on the wards and emergency centre is extactly what is also happening at the korle bu mortuary. Everyone is taken there . There should be a rule where the dead are refused and families advised to seek others morgues.

President is flying in his brothers new private jet on his thank you and reset agenda tour. I couldnt believe he flew to dorma ahenkro to meet the dormahene. No wonder the dormahene praised nana showboy serwah broni in front of JDM at the durbar grounds. Travelling to dorma by private jet. Even if its the suyanni airport l still have an issue. This will affect the electoral fortunes of the party. I know he isnt standing for another term. But l like him so much that l will want to see him a legacy for generations to come witness.

When Ghanaians make hopeless noise about things without thinking what did you expect at the emergency. Can Korle Bu be expanded to cover the entire Accra city? I bet you even that will not stop patients being on the floor if we do not stop sending every case to Korle Bu. When those patients were lying on that floor, there were empty beds in other government hos0itals in the city. The staff can not ask relatives to send patients to other facilities because another hopeless "Ralph" will post a video inviting equally stupid Ghanaians to attack without analysing the situation.
The solution is, patient, can you please lie on the ground? Outcome is that very soon your stupid dignity will be taken away by the ground and doctors and nurses in a few years will all develop spinal problems which will make your health system better.
It is te Ghanaians think lateral when issues come up rather than being myopic, hatred spewing and childish.

One sure way to improve many aspects of our lives is to change Ghana's education system by next school year. Why should each pupil at the elementary and JSS level be programmed/mandated to advance to SHS if one wants to advance in life?

What if, the JSS period in each pupil's life is when teachers, parents and pupils formulate a way forward for our children relative to appropriate advancement path in our system of education? Let us imagine how pupil at the JSS level who have shown natural talent and skill sets in the areas of carpentry, plumbing, mechanical aptitude, electrical and other "blue collar" professions relative to theoretical knowledge acquisition and test scores? Why should such gifted Ghanaians not get to vocational -technical institutions under the same free SHS scheme while those with aptitude for theories and comprehension- go their merry way?

Those pupils who choose the vo-tec route must however strive to achieve Ghana's equivalent certification (comparable to international certification models) in plumbing, electrical, roofing, capentry and many others.

In merely 4 years or less from today, we could have vo-tec certified graduates in each of our regions tasked, under the guidance of qualified instructors and administrators, who manufacture metallic bed frames while another group produce mattresses for hospital beds based on approved specifications.

So as we race to fulfil our national agenda on hospitals, clinics and expand boarding schools there will be full employment opportunities for the youth persuing vo-tec skill sets. We must invest in basic skills that drive development in so-called developed nations and stop our reliance of imports; a broke or financially strapped nation must look to local solutions that brings relief to Ghana's youth.
