On Gh independence day- a little statistic for the people think about. Ghana is now 56 years old since independent.
Reflections:
CPP = 9 years out of 56
(P)-NDC = 24 years out of 56
NPP = 8 years out of 56
Are we moving forward or backward.
The Nation Debt.
Since 1957-2000 = 6.9billion
NPP from 2000 - 2008 = $9.6 billion
Without OIL MONEY.
NDC from 2008 - 2011 = $9.6billion to $25.3
billion with OIL MONEY. An increase of 164%.
NDC from 2011-2012 =$25.3 to $32.4 billion
with OIL MONEY. An increase of 280%.
Now who is an enemy to the country?.

When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Anyemi,

Please quit embarrassing the family, read and abovestand the article before you comment.

Read this:
"He said the debt was accumulated over the years, adding that 54% of the money was due to allocation fees in arrears for two years, and the rest is money owed by ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs)."

According the report, 54% of the debt is from the past two years alone. God knows where the 46% came from. Most likely from 2009.

How long will you keep defending these bandits in Accra raping the nation like nobody's business?

The real revolution will be starting soon. Have you been to Ghana lately?

We are in over our heads bro.

Mahama is also busy planning his $10 Billion "Atopaland" (or fairyland)at kasoa. FEla, are you going to buy shares from the sex-maniac for part-ownership of Kasoa Diamond Village?

It seems the only NDCer who is calling the bluff of Mahama and his Northern Brigade is DAWU.
Anyway, you are right. They are probably getting ready to set Guinness record by building the first MUDSCRAPPER in the world. Or has Mahama stashed some billions of dollars somewhere? He is smarter than all NDCers.

They are behind all coups in Ghana. Nkrumah brought them into our fold and they kicked him out from office. They have since continue to engage in all sort of tribalism. See how they vote.

Anytime there is an election, they vote 100% NDC and they know very well that their party is not up to govern Ghana. When Woyome was charged, Voltarians chiefs, went to the castle and warned the late president Mills to leave him alone as he is their son. Imagine Asantehene, Akyemhene, Akwapim Omahene etc going this far, how will Ewes react in Ghana?

We are dealing with the wrong people who hate to be part of this nation. I also blame those who have aligned themselves with the Ewes without realizing the carnage they are inviting upon themselves.

Ewes are all over in Ghana and go deep into their region and see how many non-Ewes are living among them. Also, I will challenge anyone to check how many non-Ewes heading institutions in the Volta Region. While they are accepted anywhere in Ghana, they dare anyone to come and live among them. That person's skull will be found hanging on the side of one of the drums in the chief's palace.

That is very true.These tribalist, expecially the ewes who seem to be fighting undeclared war against the Akans. There in no development wherever they,being it Ghana, Togo, Benin or Haiti. They brought nothing to the diner table when Nkrumah made the Volta Region part of Ghana,yet they want to eat all the food. They have staged all the coups in Ghana including the overthrow of Nkrumah the very person who made them part of Ghana.

Its cant be true, who is the government who owes the money. All governments departments pay for their own electricity used. How has the government invest in electricity.

We all know how painful and uncontrollable migraine headache can be and NDC is Ghana's migraine.

NDC is the worse government ever to rule our dear nation. Imagine a Public Relation Officer saying that he doesn't know the amount his ministry owe ECG. Even an illiterate person working in a certain company, will be abreast with the finances of that company.

This attest to the fact that we are being ruled by truants, vagabonds and thieves. They love stealing and that is what they care for. Tweakai.

DEAR H.E.PRESIDENT OF GHANA JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA,GOVERNMENT OF GHANA AND THE READING PUBLIC OF GHANAWEB.COM,

THIS IS TO RESPECTFULLY REFER TO THE ABOVE RELATED SUBJECT-MATTER WHICH TOUCHES AND CONCERNS THE FEATURE ARTICLE PUBLISHED CAPTIONED," GOVERNMENT OWES ECG $500 MILLION" AND TO REVISIT A PROPOSAL I RESPECTFULLY MADE BEFORE WHEN I WAS WORKING AT THE OFFICE OF PRESIDENT OF GHANA, CASTLE-OSU AT THE TIME GHANA WATER & SEWERAGE CORPORATION CLOSED WATER TO THE CASTLE ON THE FLIMSY GROUND THAT THE CASTLE OWED THE WATER CORPORATION.
IN FACT, THIS RELATED CASE HAPPENED AT THE THE OFFICE GUARANTEED LOANS FOR THE WATER CORPORATION BY ISSING "LETTERS OF CREDITS" ON BEHALF OF THE CORPORATION AND SECURED THE LOANS FROM INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS.
THAT ALL THE EFFORTS EXERTED BY THE CASTLE STAFF ON BEHALF OF THE WATER CORPORATION WAS NOT PAID FOR IN REAL TERMS OF CASH COMPONENTS UNITS.
THAT THE CASTLE AT THAT TIME AND I AM NO DOUBT AWARE THAT THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT IS PLAYING SUCH VITAL ROLES INCLUDING OVER-SIGHT ADMINISTRATION IN POLICY RELATED AND IMPLEMENTATION MATTERS AND THIS RELATED MATTER CONCERN ALL THE SUBVENTED ORGANIZATIONS AND INSTITUTIONS INCLUDING THE ECG.
HOWEVER, APART FROM THE GOVERNMENT SALARY THAT THE CASTLE STAFF TAKES/TOOK THEY ARE/WERE PAID NO OTHER REMUNERATIONS AND NEVER CHARGED FEES FOR ANY OTHER WORK DONE APART FROM THE CASTLE OWN WORK.
IT IS/WAS THESE RELATED BACKDROPS THAT I RESPECTFULLY PROPOSED THE ADMINISTRATIVE/MANAGEMENT STRATEGIC CONCEPT OF "MANAGEMENT BY OBJECTIVES AND CONTRACT MANAGEMENT" TO ENABLE "A CLEARING HOUSE" TO BE ESTABLISHED RO EVALUATE AND QUANTIFIED IN MONETARY TERMS THE SERVICES RENDERED BY THE CASTLE STAFF TO THE SUBVENTED INSTITUTIONS AND THE SERVICES THEY ALSO PROVIDED FOR THE CASTLE TO HELP DEFRAY ANY RELATED DEBT AS THE ONE RAISED BY ECG,
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED.
GOD BLESS GHANA AND LONG LIVE GHANA !
VERY TRULY YOURS,
BENONY TONY AMEKUDZI
