Our case is more of a bad attitude, indiscipline, tribalism, and mighty corruption. You'll also realized that these countries have invested more in science and technology than in other sectors, unlike our case where universities are churning out social scientists whose aim is to come and steal. Just imagine the calibre of lawyers we have in this country, with most of them being politicians, always defending their fellow criminals. It is pathetic and shameful that Ghana cannot compare itself to any of the above-mentioned countries.

It sounds about right with your comments. But the question is why do they dislike Nkrumah ?
I am Ga, and was about 8yrs old when Nkrumah was elected, and I adore him with all my being.

He was trade minister combined 15 years how many contributions he did.Ghanaians have answers for everything in their mind but they cannot put it in to action. They have strong and hard working people and from leaders to everyone elected for laws not some.Few Churches and they do not do politics like US that everybody want to be president.

As a child in Accra, in the 60's I remember seeing those Asians in droves in Accra, they were looking lost and pitiful. They came for a better life because their countries were in turmoil with fighting and ethnic cleansing. Today, they have surpassed Ghana. Just look at their countries now, they don't even care for Africans.

Average IQ 1 week ago

South Korea has a national average IQ of 106.9 which is among the top 5 in the world.

South Korea has a national average IQ of 106.9 which is among the top 5 in the world.

Malaysia is 98.51 and ranks 54 in the world.
Ghana is 79 and ranks 147 in the world and only higher than those poorer countries in Africa.

We need to understand how national development is correlated to the national average IQ. How early childhood care and primary school education effect our IQ.

According to studies our national average IQ is less than 80 which is equivalent to a 8 year old child's mental capacity. Therefore even if Ghana has all the resources in the world, we can not develop with majority of the population having a child's brain voting and choosing our leaders and making policies.

Now, let me add that most Ghanaians do not understand their surroundings and people like that do not understand the meaning of development. They will choose food over hospitals, food over drones, food over asphaltic roads, food over ambulances, food over education. Yes, that is the Ghanaian's mentality, and how can we develop with that type of mindset.

This man, Alan Kyeremeten is behaving like a wanderer who has lost his way in and endless desert. Alan should be told in plain words that the leadership of NPP, which is a political party in Ghana and comprises of all tribes, is not the property of any special group whereby the leadership should be passed on to the next in line to the throne.

Yes, this man cannot understand why Bawumia is leading NPP, but can he stop that? From the butterfly to United Party, how many seats does his party have in parliament?

During the last election, Chaddar even had more votes than him so, why does he think he is more popular? He can join NDC and vie for the leader of that useless party, and who gives a heck.

Bawumia is the man and he will perform very well to shame all his enemies like Alan Kyerematen.

Korea and co have been where they are for a LONG time. You’ve been in cabinet meetings and a minister for trade.. how did you steward your position and opportunity to leapfrog this country. Did you not step aside for Akuffo Addo to lead NPP only to be later relegated? Let’s be serious. Kyerematen, your opinions and lamentations do not matter because you are a major reason why we are soooo far behind. Akuffo Addo did serious damage and as someone who afforded him that opportunity AND was a cabinet minister in that train wreck, you are partly to blame.

What did the "puffy cheek" Alan Kyeremanten achieved in his 2 times ministerial appointments in 2 regimes with the NPP government?

Alan Kyeremanten was touted as brainy, UN employed industrialist who could turn things around in both JAK and NADAA regimes only for him to sleep on the job, hoping and wishing to become the next NPP presidential candidate unopposed, as tradition demands until NADAA threw cayenne pepper into his eyes by introducing Bawuliar as his successor.

What has been Alan Kyeremanten's achievements as 2x minister, if not globetrotting around the world and dreaming of becoming president of Ghana after NADAA? Lately, he's been much in the news for wrong reasons, making unecessary statements out of frustration.

Alan Kyeremanten should give us a break, he'll also never become president of Ghana. He slept too much on the job as minister and never achieved anything as minister.

Alan is lamenting? For what? Has he forgotten the terrorist activities of Busia and Obetsebi Lamptey that destabilised Ghana and the CIA backed coup of 1966 that truncated Ghana's march to rapid industrialisation? Or he was not living in Ghana.
He is pretending he does not know that Ghana's present plight stems from the unpatriotic and the subversive activities of the Danquah/ Busia political group.
