We know this as always politicians talking about this to us. What are you going to do to help the farmers or the citizenry getting an interest in farming - l mean subsidies to farmers? The talk is too much. Action we need.

ST GHFUO, you are 100 % right on this one. That man speaking knows too well that loans upon loans with silly conditionalities are our major problem. His hypocrisy is what baffles me. Anyway, he's a politician and is supposed to lie for a living. There's a video circulating on Tik Tok about a jute sack factory our late president Atta Mills completed and all Mahama had to do was to fix the machines and start production. Same with the Komenda Sugar Factory. Mahama is simply following orders from his IMF & World Bank masters. If he dares to disobey, they will finish him like they do to "stubborn" leaders like Kwame Nkrumah, Gaddafi and even including Atta Mills.

Ghanaian politicians are like little children put in charge of a household. Childish, selfish and irresponsible. They are in leadership positions but have no ideas about how to lead and solve problems.

Mr. Tanoh well said. But your government must walk the talk; offer loan insurance and encourage the private sector to drive the 24hr economy. Tax importers more, on products that can be manufactured in Ghana; direct the tax proceeds to pay private companies to hire and train the unemployed youth; prosecute corrupt kingpins in the system to earn trust and respect from the general public.

Has anything changed? Reform Party boss? A fella who once said the NDC was " so corrupt, it cannot be reformed". Now a cheerleader just parroting anything placed in front of him and ironically gets paid for it.
Bless him
