Don't use this as an excuse for your mismanagement of the economy.

The NDC seems to thrive on the extraordinary gullibility of its members. How can you believe such an unfounded statement? What's the margin of uncertainty here: S1bn? Christ!

Haruna Iddrisu, go tell your fellow foolsoldiers such bullshit.

How can you count your eggs before they are hatched, wooden-headed minister Haruna Iddrisu ?

Which investor decided not to invest in the country because there was a looming possibility of a change of govt due to the election petition ?

And which genuine investor was afraid of investing in the country because of Mahama or a potential Nana Addo's presidency ?

Did the NDC tell Ghanaians to vote for it because of the availability of massive foreign investment if it wins the elections ?

Stop the stealing and use our hard earned monies to develop the country, instead of counting on foreign investors to do the job for you, you blockheaded chin-chinga-chewing clowns !

i think ken agyapong is better than sir john as flag bearer but to have the two of them as president and vice will be most ideal. we need people who have fire in their souls and can not be compromised or corrupted . It is ok for the ndc to parade thieves like rawlings tsikata konadu mahama kwetey and nketia but when the npp try to field a true Akan warriors who can try and protect the rights of the majority they go and kill him like mills, in fact the blood of the Akan leaders has been spilt so many times no one bothers to ask why , a wise man said wisdom comes after reflection with justice in the heart but that is not the case. pepeni and his alajih thieves could not even offer 10,000 troops to obama our first black president and friend rather these cowards are running around in full body armor trying to frighten the people and will soon be causing trouble .these Arabs are just as evil as pepeni , imagine the Muslims being able to twist even the word of God so it becomes a platform for hate and oppression of others , i hope the Americans bomb them all into oblivion and later come here and bomb these pepeni too, long live the republic of Akan

Sumanguuru you are very right in your comment. One can't understand why NDC is making this type of propaganda except to cover their incompetence.

If NDC doesn't walk the walk and only talk the talk and indulge itself in electoral malpractices and irregularities, they will be always be taken to court to seek redress because the constitution provides for it.

NDC is failing to grow the economy and provide services to the people because, foreign inverters know that the fundamentals of our economy are not sound because of overspending and corruption. In fact, the economy has been mismanaged grossly well before the elections. And capital, as they say, is very coward and fears where cowboys are in charge. P/NDC has never been investment friendly.

PK, it is true that a lot of investors were jittery and playing the 'let's wait and see attitude' during the election Petition case before the Supreme Court of Ghana and as such, one can appropriately say that the country was deprived of such amount during the eight-month hearing. However, the case is over and the country is at peace with itself like always. So, the said foreign investments, although late, can still stream-in for the needed development at a later date and don't see the reason in the Minister of Trade and Industry, Mr. Haruna Iddrisu complaint.

Which genuine investor will hold on his/her investment just because there will be a potential change of govt as a result of the outcome of an election petition in a country that was under the rule of law ?

They are trying to justify their non-performance as a result of their cluelessness and stealing, by using the election petition as an excuse.

For how long would NDC blame their failures and the failed economy on this smooth court case. The minister is not being objective by shifting this blame solely on the election petition hearing. I think as a Minister, he knows what are the actual causes and must not hide them. Again, I disagree with you.... and CAN PROUDLY SAY THAT MOST GHANAIANS ARE RATIONAL THINKERS - Do not try to insult Ghanaians because of the interest of your party, NDC.

When we talk about political and economic illiterates, we refer to people like this unfit Trade Minister. How can he say things like this? Does he know what Democracy means? A country which relies on foreign investments for its survival is a Banana Republic and not worth being called a sovereign country. Election petition costing Ghana's development because investors were scared? Excuse us and give us a break, Mr Minister.
No doubt we have vagabonds, vampires and mosquitoes in power. God have Mercy on this our Homeland, Ghana.

Can Haruna Iddrisu provide the methodology by which he came by these figures and who these foreign investors are, and how much they were willing to commit tangibly to the economy, by way of funds that independent analysts can verify were readily available, amounting to $2billion dollars and what sectors these monies were going to go and then, Ghanaians can put his comment in the right perspective. Failure to provide the needed detailed analysis of the figures he's quoting, Ghanaians would take his comments for what they are, useless garbage steeped in NDC propaganda, carefully orchestrated to divert the discerning Ghanaian from the ineptitude, incompetence, ineffective and ineffectual leadership marred by humongous corruption and fraud, and a marked inability to deliver on any front to mitigate the numerous challenges facing the average Ghanaian.

Only headless Ghanaians will believe you. Haruna Iddrisu, before the election that brought this reckless and irresponsible government to power, said that they will have no excuses whatsoever because there are so many ways open for them to make lives better for the ordinary man/woman/child in Ghana. So, what went wrong? Lies cannot make people lives better and that is what NDC is known for. Keep on telling lies and Ghanaians will believe you because there are too many stupid people in Ghana.

What is wrong with a democratic country like Ghana losing that amount due to the election petition as claimed by Haruna? In any case, he should not forget that DEMOCRACY is expensive and not even a single Ghanian's life can be exchanged with that amount. Did he coincided the number of precious lives that could have been lost should the 2012 election led to chaos/war? Has the minister forgotten those inimical judgement dept they created and shared? What about the GYEEDA report? just to mention few. Haruna should give us a break and let us enjoy the absence of chaos in the country. After all that is the fruit of democracy.

What is $2b lost to Ghana in terms of the huge gain of calness and peace which can not be measured by any financial cost?

Instead of blood bath, lost of properties and peaceful environment which unfortunately happenned in Kenya and Ivory Coast your evil NDC tyrants diabolical planned against country and people, we by the Grace of God had Nana Akufo Addo who in his wisdom as a peaceful man resulted to a peaceful settlement at the court.

If Ghana indeed lost that much we hold no body but the shamed Afari Djan and his crook incompetent and unprofessional Electoral Officers.

Anyway, the mumu appointed minister would have done well by bringing the brake down of the total cost for transparency and accountability purposes for all to see fili-fili.

They have three more years to go and let us see whether they can bring back the confidence of the international community. NDC should understand that the only way for this confidence is their performance as a government by going to work and solve the numerous problems the nation is facing in addition to fulfilling the numerous promises they gave to Ghanaian people. Time will tell.

The Mahama-Amissah Arthur administration needs to go for their gross inability to deliver. By their manifesto promises, the 10 teacher training colleges should have been up and running already. The last time we checked, they were saying they had secured the funds already and were waiting for the chiefs to release land for the projects to commence, and so for them they are ready, but the lands are not available yet. Catch the drift. Ghanaians are waiting for the 10 teacher training colleges in each of the 10 regions per their manifesto promises, so they should cut the stupid crap already and get it moving. Go to Sene District and ask for Charles Denteh and ask him, whether the NDC party thinks they are illiterate and fools.

A man brought a very limp dog into the veterinary clinic. As he laid the dog on the table, the doctor pulled out his stethoscope, placing the receptor on the dog's chest. After a moment or two, the vet shook his head sadly and said, "I'm sorry, but your dog has passed away." "What?" screamed the man. "How can you tell? You haven't done any testing on him or anything. I want another opinion!" With that, the vet turned and left the room. In a few moments, he returned with a Labrador retriever. The Retriever went right to work, sniffing and prodding, checking the poor dead dog out thoroughly. After a considerable amount of sniffing, the Retriever sadly shook his head and said, "Bark".

The veterinarian then took the Labrador out and returned in a few moments with a cat, which also checked out the poor dog on the table. As had his predecessors, the cat sadly shook his head and said, "Meow." He then jumped off the table and ran out of the room. The veterinarian handed the man a bill for $600. The dog's owner went berserk. "$600! Just to tell me my dog is dead? This is outrageous!"

The vet shook his head sadly and explained. "If you had taken my word for it, it would have been $50, but with the Lab work and the cat scan....

Nonsense! This pepeni needs to have his bath before adressing the airwaves! Nonsense, how much have they stolen, not forgetting their bribes, the usual pepefuo bargain to authority. And where does all these money come from ,if not Akansland. Tribal warrior, he just goes to the air wares to punk over 2million, whiles he is transferring 10million to Burkina Faso! You are not welcome in Akansland.! Haruna Iddrisu is a foreign beggar's name in Akansland. Banish yourself ! Thieves.

Too bad on the face of it. Go deeper and you won't be bemoaning any longer! Reason? It could just be the right cost we as a nation had to pay for not descending into anarchy of unthinkable proportion if what happened in Ivory Coast and Kenya were anything to go by.

Besides, the heavy cost must be yielding significant dividends of pruning our democratic discourse and exposing some loopholes in our Electoral process! The cardinal hope is one of maturity in democracy and electoral process, higher level of tolerance and a sparkling signal to our politicians to perform when in office to ensure a clear and non-debatable, non-contestable electoral results.

The balance sheet is not all that gloomy! There is something to smile about? Yes! If for nothing at all, that the nation still stands must soothe the nerves of foreign investors as we have passed the acid test of coming out in peace and not in pieces.

So the least said and drummed about by our government functionaries of the downside of the petition the better for their own performance. They are to focus on fixing the economy. After all the "loss" can't be gotten back; it's gone but can be replaced in hundred folds if they perform and tackle corruption.

One of the strategies in politics is propaganda especially during the Campaign. But using propaganda after you've won elections to throw dust in the eyes of the people to the detriment of programs or plans to move the Country forward,could be more than dangerous,and therefore, a signal of disregard,neglect,and, letting the people who voted for him down.
I'm particularly not surprised about it for Mahamah did not have a signal sensitive Campaign message.His messages were:
1.He's the 1st post independent young man to stand for elections,so all young people should vote for him for the young to rule.
2.Obama won his 2nd term,so Ghanaians should vote him to power.
3.Northerners are Fed up with the position of Vice president,so his people should vote for him to become the president.
4.NDC would build 200 Snr high Schools across the Country.(this was at the instant of Nana Addo's promise to build 350 Schools ).
5.Everyone should endeavor to vote.For, if you don't vote, fools would rule you.
These were the only messages from Mahamah (5).which he claims Won him the Elections.
Where in this modern World would the above empty Campaign messages win you elections aside from Ghana ?.So I'm not overwhelmed by the propaganda in motion by theses School boys ministers to deceive the public/masses.

The fisrt step to avoid such cost is to retire Afari Gyan and NDC party has to be dissolved because they have never won clean elections in Ghana before.
