....Kronfuors. Kuffuor's eight years of doom have it's repercussion biting Ghanaians now.
When Kuffuor took Ghana to HIPC and stole all the money, little did some of you realize that Kuffuor Kronfuor's stealing will have such a Gargantuan effect on you.
And any Economist out there knows why. Economic development cannot be recorded when past government was so corrupt such as Kronfuor.

NPP IS THE LAST SOURCE THAT HAS ANY CREDIBILITY IN ANY PROGRESSIVE NATION BUILDING. ONLY A FOOL WHO DOES NOT UNDERSTAND ECONOMICS WILL QUESTION A 2008 ECONOMIC GROWTH ANY WHERE IN THE WORLD OK?
THE WORLD WAS COLLASPING WHEN KUFFUOR WAS LEAVING. THANK GOD, FOR ATTA MILLS WHO SAW US THRU THE DIFFICULT TIMES IN GHANA. IF THAT WERE THE NPP, THEY WOULD HAVE GONE BACK TO HIPIC!
KUFFUOR SEND GHANA TO HIPIC, WIPED DEBT, AND RECEIVED GRANTS MONEY. HE LEFT ROADS -YOU MENTIONED THEM YOUR SELF, ETC. WHAT MONEY DID KUFFUOR LEAVE BEHIND FOR THE NDC TO FINISH THE CONSTRUCTION OF THOSE ROADS? THE NDC HAD TO FIND MONEY TO CONTINUE THOSE PROJECTS!
KUFFOUR LEFT DEBT AND NOT CASH TO COMPLETE ROADS.
TALKING ABOUT LEAVING OIL BEHIND, HOW MUCH MONEY DID KUFFUOR BARGAIN ON BEHALF OF GHANA FOR THE OIL? NOTHING!! HE GAVE THE FOREIGNERS ALMOST EVERYTHING SO THAT HE CAN MAKE MONEY FOR HIMSELF IN RETURN, HOW SELFISH.
. IN ANY CASE, WHEN KUFFOUR WIPED THOSE DEBTS, WHY COULD HE NOT STABILIZE THE ECONOMY BEFORE HANDING OVER TO THE NDC? HE WAS COMPLAINING THE COUNTRY HAD BEEN MISMANAGED AND SO HE NEEDED TO GET THE DEBT TO A POINT THAT HE COULD MANAGE IT BETTER, SO WHAT HAPPENED? WHY COULDN’T HE STOP THE DEBT CREATION, AND RATHER CREATED MORE AND LEFT UNCOMPLETED PROJECTS, WITHOUT MONEY FOR THE NDC TO COMPLETE THEM! WHEN HE WAS LEAVINGTHE DEBT BEHIND, WHERE DID HE EXPECT THE NDC TO GET THE FUNDS TO COMPLETE THOSE PROJECTS HE WAS LEAVING BEHIND? SEND THE COUNTRY BACK TO HIPIC?

I am standing on the top of the mountains, openly, shouting and crying that:
The first thieves in Ghana were Dr. Kwame Nkrumah and his Convention Peoples Party (CPP )members!
Why should I say this?
This is because what did kwame and his ministers do immediately after Independence?
When the British were ruling Ghana, they were given huge allowances and salaries to compensate and lure them to stay and live in the GoldCoast. We should not lose sight of the fact that, Mr. Mosquito, was very strong at that time,with malaria the common lethal disease.
When Kwame appointed his ministers and they took over these portfolios, they did not think of Ghana, they took over these positions with all the huge salaries and allowances that were paid to these expatriates, and also coupled with the fact that, most of these ministers were not well educated, 'The Veranda Boys'.
These was the beginning of the Economic plunders. Thievery was inculcated in Ghanaians not by The NPP , but by The CPP.
The CPP set the bad precedence under the pretext an pretense of Socialism.

NKRUMAH WAS THE ARCHITECT OF HIS OWN DOWNFALL. AT THE HEAT OF THE COLD WAR, HE WAS FOUND FLIRTING WITH THE EAST. ALSO HE DECLARED HIMSELF A LIFE PRESIDENT OF GHANA, THEREFORE A DICTATOR, AND SENT MANY OPPONENTS TO PRISON WITHOUT TRIAL. HE WASTED A LOT OF GHANA'S WEALTH IN SPONSORING FREEDOM MOVEMENTS ACROSS THE AFRICAN CONTINENT. IN EFFECT, THEN, HE COURTED THE WRATH OF THE WEST AND THE FREEDOM MOVEMENTS IN GHANA (RECENT EXAMPLES ARE THE LIKES OF SADDAM HUSSAIN, GADDAFFI AND A HOST OF OTHERS. THESE FLAWS MADE THE JOB ON HIM EASIER FOR THE CIA. DON'T GET ME WRONG, NKRUMAH HAD HIS GOOD SIDE. HAD HE BEEN WISER ON THE INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL SCENE AND ALSO DOMESTICALLY, GHANA WOULD HAVE, TODAY, BEEN ECONOMICALLY POWERFUL THAN MALAYSIA. NKRUMAH ALSO USED A LOT OF PROPAGANDA AS NDC IS DOING TODAY, WHICH HAS LED MANY GHANAIANS BEING TOTALLY BLIND. I WAS NOT YET BORN, LIKE MANY OF YOU, DURING NKRUMAH'S TIME, BUT I LOVE POLITICS SO I RESEARCH INSTEAD OF RELYING ON PROPAGANDA. TODAY, 2013, NDC OF GHANA IS BOLDLY CALLING THEMSELVES SOCIALISTS, AND SO IT IS CLEAR, THEY LACK INTERNATIONAL GOODWILL. REMEMBER THE QUEEN OF BRITAIN THREW A BIG BANQUET FOR EX. PRES. KUFFOUR BUT NOT FOR RAWLINGS IN HIS 19 YEAR RULE, NEITHER WILL MAHAMA, THE SOCIALIST, GET IT. I FEAR, GHANA UNDER NDC WILL BRING US NO PROSPERITY BUT GARGANTUAN RETROGRESSION. WHAT CAN GHANA GAIN FROM THE EAST???? NDC MUST DO THE RIGHT THING. "WISDOM IS BETTER THAN SILVER AND GOLD". NDC MUST SEEK THE FRIENDSHIP OF THE "BIG BOYS" IN INTERNATIONAL POLITICS, THE WEST, ELSE GHANA IS GOING NOWHERE. NDC MUST EXERCISE PRUDENCE IN INTERNATIONAL POLITICS. REMEMBER NDC'S CLOSE DEALINGS WITH GADDAFI'S LIBYA, CASTRO'S CUBA, ARAFAT'S PALESTINE ETC WAS LAUGHABLE. TODAY, OUR INTERACTION WITH IRAN IS BEING MONITORED. WHAT DO WE STAND TO BENEFIT FROM THESE COUNTRIES? BUT THAT IS NDC'S WISDOM. RECENTLY, A PLANE LOADED WITH GOLD LEFT OUR SHORES HEADING TO AMEDINAJAD'S IRAN,AN INTERNATIONAL PARIAH, AND WAS INTERCEPTED IN TURKEY. NDC WAKE UP AND LEARN FROM HISTORY.I AM SO WORRIED, NDC LACKS HIGH CALIBRE POLITICIANS.

If The GoldCoast, now Ghana, had been led by The United Party, now NPP, from Independence, Ghana would not be where she is now!
The issue is, if Ghana would allow the NPP to lead the country for the next 20 years, Ghanaians would see where we would be.
I am not holding brief for The NPP, but I see that 'The Salvation' of Ghana is in the hands of The NPP and Ghana is where she is now,because the 'devil' is preventing the Savior to die, so that our sins would be forgiven.
The NPP from the word go, was for the Western type democracy, Kwame and the CPP were for the Eastern type.
Now where are we? 'Going back to battan'?
The stone rejected by the builders has become the conerstone.
France says 'socialism', but it is not yet four years. The end justifies the means and if you cannot change it, you join it.

Firstly the UP did not want to know about Independence to start with,so, how will they lead this nation from independence when there was none?
Was it not the same UP led by Dr.Busia who shamelessly addressed the British parliament that "The Gold Coast wasn`t ready for Independence?"
Secondly for you to suggest that the NPP be allowed to lead this country for 20 years tells me that you are indeed descended from another planet. Ghanaians saw with their own eyes the gross mismanagement,selfishness and arrogance with NPP administration led by Kuffor and his thieving cohorts.A 20 years under NPP would mean a serious disaster and there won`t be any Ghana on the world map.

The United GoldCoast Convention,(UGCC) led by Mr. JB Daquah, Ako Adjei and Hon Obestebi Lamptey, just to mention a few, started the agitations for Independence when Kwame was in the United States of America in the Pan African Movement.
The UGCC wanted independence but in a different manner, gradually, intelligently, systematically, with all the knowledge and experience acquired from the Colonial masters- with the slogan, Independence within The Shortest Possible Time.
Not the 'rush and haste', the 'dash and dart', the 'jump and leap' manner adopted by Kwame.. with his motto, Independence Now!
This is where we are! This is where 'Independence Now' has brought us to!

Dr. Danso, your prognosis to the problems in Ghana fell just very short of saying:
If Ghana has adopted a mixed type of government or the Presidential System, as pertains in The United States Of America, then Ghana should follow suit and adopt The Federal System of Government, because the system works better with 'The Executive President'.
My question is, why should Ghana, a Unitary State, change over from The Cabinet System to The Presidential?
Is it the advantages that would accrue from the tripartite form of 'checks and balances'? or
The freedom for the President to choose his Cabinet Ministers , not strictly, from the Members Of Parliament as pertains under the Cabinet System?
Now the question is :
Have the drafters of the Constitution and better still, Ghanaians in general, ever sat down to evaluate the advantages and dis-advantages of this adopted 'Presidential System' vis-a vis the former 'Cabinet system', under the leadership of a Prime-Minister, who is also a member of Parliament,representing a Constituency?
What are the gains to Ghana?
If America is rich and Presidential, does it mean that Ghana follows blindly?
Are Ghanaians so gullible that we take any 'pill' that is pushed down our throats?
It is not the system, per say, that brings efficiency and growth but rather it is the people who operates the system.

Our once enviably nation is gone to the dogs. The Ghana we knew is gone. The entire country is today an official institution of a state haven of all manners of criminally unscrupulous government officials who have turned the country into a chaotic social lawlessness, abject poverty, diseases, armed robbery, total darkness, short of ordinary drinking water as a country not to mention the horrible education systems, bad roads, heart-braking congested traffics, filthy and smelly environments, hospitals turned to death transit halls not to talk about youth unemployment with homeless kids roaming hopelessly on our once peaceful streets.
Painfully, Ghana, is mortgaged to armed Chinese, Indians, Lebanese and Nigerians unkept lawless crooks and criminals who have indeed neo-colonialized the country with their local criminal traitor counterparts with impunity headed by a visionless and incompetent government who can not put the nation's priority right to fix the huge despicable social economic and political problems.
Ghana, the once political power of Africa is in a pathetic state of total wreckage and collapsing.

I interviewed a cross section of people from 2004-2006 also for my Phd dissertation. I know Ghana perhaps more than you do. I have worked in America and owned my own business, and trust me there is nothing Ghanaians cannot do if they have good leadership, guidance, discipline and some financing to produce. THANK YOU! It is tough, but there is hope if we all educate the youth and guide them to resist the current oppressive and corrupt environment.
