WE THOUGHT THESE SHOESHINE BOYS SAID THEY HAD CLEANED UP THE SYSTEM. APPARENTLY, THEIR OWN SYMPATHISERS LOOTED THROUGH GHOST NAMES. ANYWHERE AN ASANTE IS, THERE IS KALABULE. LAZY PEOPLE.

You had your share as well if not why are you still supporting NDC even when they are looting Ghana and everyone is dying hard yet you fools don't care at all.

Ex-president Kuffuor said Ghost names were there since creation so it was not feasible for there to be measures to curb it.

Is it not a shame that this has been going on for far too long? That is why I favor privatization of almost everything in Ghana. Ghanaians have the stupid mentality that it is for government
Empty Talk Backed No Action.

They're teaching that its OK to steal but, the average person get severe punishment for petty crime. Something is really wrong with this nation.
A country that does not punish crime by people in positions of trust. In China such crimes are punishable by death.
You can say that again! Stealing is now the order of the day. The indiscipline and lawlessness in this country is mind bogging.
ARE YOU SURE YOU ARE NOT A GHOST WORKER? WHY CALL NDC? BE INTELLIGENT!! THE GHOST WORKERS ARE NOT ONLY NDCs OO!! THEY ARE NDC, PPP, NPP, CPP AND WHAT HAVE YOU. THEY ARE THE CORRUPT GHANAIANS -SEEN EVERYWEHRE, LOOKING FOR ...
