kUDOS TO YOU, WB FOR YOUR GENEROSITY TOWARDS THE DEVELOPMENT OF GHANA.
THE ONEROUS TASK NOW REST WITH PUBLIC OFFICERS AND GOVT TO ENSURE THAT THESE MONIES AND OPPORTUNITIES ARE USED WISELY AND EFFICIENTLY TO BENEFIT OUR PEOPLE.
THE LAZY ATTITUDE OF SOME CIVIL SERVANTS SHD NOT BE TOLERATED, ESPECIALLY WHERE THEY THINK ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO MILK THE SYSTEM. THE OFFICE OF PREZ MUST STEP UP ITS MONITORING MECHANISM SO AS TO CHECK LAZY STAFF AND THOSE WHO INTENTIONALLY SABOTAGE THE SYSTEM.
ONCE AGAIN, THANXS TO WB AND HER STAFF FOR PUTTING TOGETHER THESE PACKAGES/ASSISTANCE TO GHANA. GOD BLESS THE GIVER!

The shift in policy is the corect one, especially as it names he Ghana offices and officers associated to projects. This should allow transperency and public recognition not only of he projects but how well our own people are doing. The MiDA programs have the same approach which many have explained to be to hae worked perfectly. Keep it up.

A QUOTE: “At present, Africa is industrially one of the least developed continents in the world. It produces one-seventh of the world’s raw materials, but only one-fiftieth of the world’s manufactures.
The share of industry in Africa’s total income is less than 14 per cent. This situation is a legacy of imperialism and colonialism, and the exploitation of Africa to serve the interest of international monopoly finance capital. But is also a result of the continuing imperialist and capitalist exploitation of Africa through neocolonialism”. SOURCE: CLASS STRUGGLE IN AFRICA BY KWAME NKRUMAH -1970.
OTHER QUOTES: “Multilateral ‘aid’ similarly serves mainly to improve the economic position of the donor countries”.
“Credits are granted by capitalist states to countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America, so that they can be equipped with the infra-structure necessary for their further exploitation by private monopolists. The aim is political as well as economic”. SOURCE: CLASS STRUGGLE IN AFRICA BY KWAME NKRUMAH – 1970.
Fast forward to the year 2013, and NOTHING seems to have changed......irrespective of the tall list of so-called developments supported by the World Bank in Ghana.
The neocolonialists and imperialists have devised new strategies under the guise of ‘gobblerization’ (globalization), which allows the international corporate entities to monopolize our rich natural resources and finance capital, by means of direct ‘conditions’ and ‘policies’ set out by the World Bank and the IMF.
These institutions were set up to protect the interests of the west and to continually destabilize our economy for their own good. That is why we continue to go with bowl in hand begging for aid. And in so doing, help to put stooges in leadership positions to help sell our country’s rich natural resources for their own personal gains, whilst our people remain in ABJECT POVERTY. (WHAT IS WRONG WITH US?)
These projects that we are made to believe have been, or are being supported by the World Bank can and could actually have been carried out by ourselves. And by that, I mean by Ghana itself, with selfless, serious, patriotic leaders with vision and prepared to generate funds from our own rich natural resources – who would not ‘kowtow’ to any external pressures.
Why do we always have foreign news agencies plus this particular article issued by the World Bank, telling us how well Ghana has done and how well our economy is doing etc. with their support?
Well, I guess Ghanaians can judge for themselves by carrying out a self check on their living conditions in Ghana, today!
A QUOTE: “Transnational oil Corporations (TNCs). This is why Ghana paradoxically buys oil on the world market at hiked prices while our own cheaper oil is shipped quietly off to the west unchallenged.
This is why the NPP’s Kufuor hurriedly sold Ghana Telecom just before he left office, for peanuts to Vodafone co, UK. This is why dangerous GMO companies, Du Pont Chemical Inc and Pioneer High-Seeds Co. now jointly run food policy in Kwesi Ahwoi’s Ministry of Agriculture (they have already marketed carcinogenic GMO beans, maize etc.).
This is why recently western speculators rushed to buy out the NDC's Government Treasury Bonds. This is why western Trans-National Corporations (TNCs) control trading at the Ghana Stock Exchange GSE!”
ANOTHER QUOTE: “To conclude, with the appointment of Paa Kwesi Amissah-Arthur as VP, it is obvious Ghana is even more impaled by the fangs of the IMF-SAP/World Bank/TNC-concocted economic vampire. Puzzlingly, and to the obvious elation of both the NDC-NPP neocolonial political leadership, the public is not challenging this clear national economic betrayal.
Rather, it allows itself to be led by the nose through daily public debates of facile, mundane, party political and ridiculous narratives. Alas, the noses of our public are stuck deep in the antebellum slavery grip of their current mutually destructive Election Petition. This basically is a cyclical power struggle for either the NDC or NPP to be legally empowered to continue another four years of futilely implementing the IMF-SAP.
They both lack the innovation, design and planning compass and courage of leadership to lunch a Development and Modernisation Programme (DMP) that will transform our nation into an industrial giant. They are bereft of serious discourse on national development in form, content and practical enforcement.” (THE LAST TWO QUOTES WERE RECENTLY MADE BY AN INDIVIDUAL ON THIS FORUM).
GHANA is NOT a poor nation! But it’s rather a nation - full of wicked, selfish, greedy, unpatriotic, arrogant, vision-less, jealous and lying individuals placed in high positions and determined to run the ordinary citizens to the gutters of POVERTY for their own personal gains.
And in trying to achieve such evil feats, they drive the good and honest citizens of integrity to the ground; with their self-cultivated ‘evil-labeling’ of partisan politics.
GOD BLESS GHANA!
AFRICAN FOREVER!
