These incompetent and corrupt politicians cannot make any sensible argument without the mention of the previous government. Convince the electorate that you are doing the right thing and stop always passing the blame.

Couldn't you have bought a modern locomotive instead of the 1970 one. Your attempt to compare the price to what was acquired by the previous government is bogus. Who in his right state of mind will go for a 50- year old locomotive? They do not even manufacture its parts anymore .Is it for decorative purpose or what? Very soon they will sell is as scraps to Ibrahim Mahama to be added to his collections . Its a shame,NDC.

I feel said when our politicians try to make money or steal when they are working on things that the country is in dire need for. If a country like Ghana has a working national rail network , there will be reduction in road traffic accidents, highway robberies, developments and reduction in mass migration. People can commute from Takoradi or Kumasi to work and go back home without the need to live in Accra which is already chocked

@son of sons.u have said it all..wisdom is your friend..even if the govt cannot do railways within Accra , atleast the govt can connect all the cities to Accra..in my humble opinion I think president Mahama should have used the express lane to do railways from Accra to Kumasi and rather expand the already existing Accra to Kumasi road to double lanes

Mess,my take is did they buy them at all or were gifted and they have turned around to sell them to us.Chairman Abronye is out of jurisdiction otherwise I would have begged him to go and take the engine numbers and google to see their year of manufacture and when they were decommissioned and whether the manufacturer is still in operation,the Transport Minister has already booked his accommodation at Nsawam,mark my word.

I like the NDC but something is not right with the idea of moving cargo from Tema port to Npakadan which is just a small village by Akosombo; are they creating another in land port there? Or who is going to carry the containers from there?The eastern corridor road to the north is not fit for carrying containers through Dambai and this money is needed to complete some bridges first. There is just as building the Boankra in land port without a railway from Tema to Kumasi.
