Shame on you to select Linda Ocloo as a best regional minister. She is a minister of division. What has she done to be honored?
Did he pay to be recognized? If not, why then honor her? THIS IS A SHAME.

The right question should be: should public officials be awarded at all by anyone while still in office? Just tickling themselves and smiling.

I think the organizers could simply have written to the ministries and institutions who's heads won awards for sponsorship and they still would have gotten it to avoid this needless and avoidable confusion and seeming conflict. The NPP Osono 38.2 FM megahertz are hungry and desperate for a scandal to latch onto and would not hesitate to make a mountain out of a molehill at the slightest opportunity. One and a half years in office without a scandal is simply unacceptable and inconceivable to them. On the awards itself I think all the nominees deserve their them with the exception of Linda Ocloo who has been abysmal both in words and in deeds. The death traps roads in the city alone disqualifies her.

Only FRANKIE knows how to sell rotten tomatoes during peak season.How do you expect the Ministries to sponsor such a thing when their budgeted inflows are not coming? Can they defend it at PAC?

In addition, I think that all govt appointees who were involved in this money-making scam by the organizers, should be summoned to the Jubilee House and given a proper face washing. I cannot even understand why the Ministry of Tourism and other state organizations should sit idly by and allow such divisive events to go on. Whilst Infoanalytics is tearing the NDC party apart with their dubious public opinion schemes of likely NDC flagbearers in 2028 from one angle, this event is also tearing the NDC govt apart with their fake awards to Ministers.

NDC sit up and shine your eyes oooo.

But seriously should any serious nation tolerate this divisive award?
Government is total business involving and eco system of several ministries and departments, trying to single out and dismantle the system for awards is dangerous and yet critical minds are quiet and minding their business. We need to speak out and stop this fools win philosophy so pervasive in Ghana.
What at all is the basis for such an award?
I congratulate Pessa White for his bold stance. As for publicity seeking public officers they will continue to expose themselves through public speaking and public relations gimmicks to court public recognition, but ask yourself a simple question. What are public officers appointed to do?
Let’s condemn this lottery scam called awards, there are far too many in this country.

Fake awards. Just like obituaries that only say positive things about a dead person and never making any mention of the bad things they also did, these awards serve no purpose than to fool the Present and the Presidency to view the recipients as high performers, with an eye to keeping their appointments or possibly being elevated to higher appointments. If you conducted a survey to determine who deserves these awards, why not also let the public know who the bad performers are? Don't bad performers also deserve awards? Stop trying to deceive the public with self-serving bogus awards.
