  A man walks into a pharmacy, buys a condom, then walks out of the store laughing hysterically. The pharmacist thinks this is weird, but figures there’s no law preventing weird people from buying condoms.
  
  The next day, the same man comes back to the store, purchases yet another condom and once again leaves the store laughing wildly. This piques the interest of the pharmacist. “What could be so funny about buying a condom?” he wonders. He tells a pharmacy technician, “If this guy ever comes back, I want you to follow him to see where he goes.”
  
  Sure enough, the next day the same man comes back, buys a condom and again starts cracking up with laughter before leaving. The pharmacist tells his technician to go follow the guy. About an hour later, the tech comes back to the store.
  
  “Did you follow him?” asks the pharmacist.
  
  “Yup,” says the technician.
  
  So,” says the impatient pharmacist, “where’d he go?”
  
  The tech replies, “Your house.”

  It would be very strange to say it is
  only Ghana's pharmaceuticals that has been colapsed, no it is not that pharmaceutical sector alone, but the
  entire country is now a hopeless state.
  
  Our sovereignty is completely disgraced under this present "Nkonfem" President Mahama and his dumso-dumso administration
  in our country.
  
  Those supporting this particular stupid and senseless Mahama who is a
  crook, deceitful, a lair and dishonest idiot to continue to confuse our national economy and our
  national progress are enemy to our
  country's progress.
  
  GHANA IS NOW A HOPELESS STATE being
  administered by incompetent fools.

  "The IPBA has faced an uphill task since 2008 when it heightened its campaign, according to our investigations."
  Was Mahama or the NDC in power at that time? Instead of condeming in total the way politicians of all shades have opened up the country to all sorts of people in the name of investment your are rather pouring scorn on some group of people. It is this attitude that has led our country to the state we find ourselves in. When the Gov´t craked the whip on illegal mining what support did he get from the population. Can we as Ghanaians standup to the rot in our society and for once not clad it with politics? Fools wanting to live in PARADISE.

  Kow Ansah, I believe your dead body may be useful than you being alive. You just cannot reason, you don't understand English and your whole stupid body is embodiment of supporting this NDC visionless government. Your life is not worth living. People like you have nothing to contribute to the development of society.

  I'm no NDC fan, but Pepe, you have won the most foolish comment in 2013, congrats. Kow Ansah says we too often dismiss the issues and result to pettiness of politicizing issues, and you in your infinite wisdom then go on to do exactly what he's mentioning... you even go further to say the most filthy thing about another human's life. You are a disgrace to Ghana sir

  Ghana neeed to seriously procure a comprehensive AMBULANCE SERVICE with ambulances in schools, fire stations, clinics, hospitals and at all government Agencies and Offices. For a developed country to have pits citizens die in taxis and tro-tro because of lack of Ambulances is just unacceptable. I suggest the writer and all NGOs and citizens send a send a letter to the Minister of Health and Parliament to pay a budget for this priority ASAP. The Ambulances MUST BE PROCURED IMMEDIATELY

  This is one reason I wish and pray NADAA becomes the president of Ghana. He has a clear vision for the pharmaceutical industry and all other areas of the economy.

  Very soon, kenkey, koobi, gari, beans, yams, plantains and everything Ghana will be taken over by illegal foreign disrespectful operatives who have taken over our local markets and Ghanaians will have no choice but to serve as slaves in our own motherland to survive.
  
  Everything we use to be proud of as Ghanaians under the criminally corrupt man we unfortunate have as President is today gone to the control of foreign criminals who operate here with impunity as if the country is a big playing grounds with no one in charge.
  
  I blame no one but the fake revolutionary Rawlings and his criminal associates for all these destructive national mess and shame.
  
  Crime and corruption activities is like an officially recognized institutional organ of the government of the day.
  
  Lord have mercy!!!

  I agree with IPBA in every way.The collapsing of the local pharmaceutical industry started in the era of Rawlings, in the mid nineties, when the government sold out GIHOC Pharmaceuticals to an American company and lay off two-thirds of the employee. What I have realized is, we don't cherish our own. GIHOC could have supplied the whole sub-saharan region, because it has the necessary manpower and technical expertise. We should blame our leaders who are only in power for their selfish ends, plunging the country into jeopardy.What I think is, every industry in Ghana should have a representative in parliament to fight these canker in our society.

  Ghana is like a place of no laws, no control, no order and without leadership.
  
  Is so sad and pathetic that Osgyefo Kwame Nkrumah's Ghana, the first South of the Sahara to gain independence and the mouth piece of political emancipation of African freedom, a country that gave shelter and trained Freedom Fighters like Robert Mugabes, Sam Njomahs, Azikwes, Awolowos, Kenyatas, Kaundas, and many more is today becoming the political laughing stock of the continent of Africa. What a shame!
  
  Under the rule of Ghana's most disastrous government ever since history, the P/NDC criminals have won their way to make corruption and crime officially an institutional structure killing the social economic advancement of the country and the welfare of the people.
  
  The most disturbing thing is, they have also succeeded to diabolically dividing the once powerfully united country on tribal lines and fooling their illiterate innocent blind and poorly deprived kinsmen to believe and support them whilst they sit in Accra, enjoying themselves with the people's stolen monies that should have gone into community developments to better the lives of the discarded uninformed villagers who vote them into positions only to be forgotten a day after.
  
  Mahama led disastrous NDC is no government but bunkers of heartless stinky criminal gangsters so idiot that they put guinea fowls as national priority over the welfare of the people.
  
  Ghana is like a home without a father in effective control, everything Ghana is collapsing.
  
  God have mercy!
