  but only free bus would not help because Ghana we have culture of helping aged people by giving them lift to where they want to go if we are going the same way. so this free ride is already there or here.

  who will pay for their stay, otherwise, it's going to be punishing home, rather than nursing home. even in rich countries where nursing homes are common, the client pays part of their livings.

  YOU ARE RIGHT,WHO WILL PAY? EVEN IN EUROPE MOST OF THE ELDERLY PREFER TO STAY AT HOME.THE GOVERNMENT HAS TO ACCESS THE COST OF MAINTAINING AND RUNNING THE HOUSES NOT ONLY PUTTING UP THE HOUSES.

  Who will help my dear country to do away with this bogus ministry.A country of just 25 millionand will someone tell me how many ministries?This waste of public money began with Agyekum Kuffour who created ministries just to get jobs for his boys.Will someone let me know the real difference between information and communication?If even there is such a difference,do we in Ghana need those two to be separate?This same kuffour separated and created Roads and Highways,
  Railways and Harbours etc,yet look at Ghana now.All this are just a waist of public funds. God help Ghana.

  Good idea but long over due. If you say free transportation for the "aged", what age bracket are we talking about? Starting from what age. And when in 2014 is this going to be implimented? Please be specific so the good people of Ghana can hold you accountable. Thank you.

  The idea is laudable.But wait a minute ; what hasn't Mahamah administration provided Ghanaians from the mouth since he became the youngest post independence president !
  He had built 3 airports across the country,3 universities across the country,provided jobs to the youth under the auspices of the United Nations General Assembly,resolved the electricity problems in the Country with nuclear energy, built 50 high Schools across the country,built express roads etc etc etc.
  If "Wishes Were Horses Beggars Would Ride".
  Meanwhile,he Withdraw So-called Subsidy on Petrol, Increased Every Commodity and Services in the Country including School fees,
  increased the Salaries of the legislators and the executive with the bread crumbs that fell from the table to the masses, employed more ministers than necessary to put pressure on the Taxpayers Funds just to Satisfy Party faithfuls,Korle Bu Hospital Extorting money from the Sick before
  treatment is given etc etc etc
  What do you want the majority poor weak and vulnerable to be; Shrink to death or what.
  Leadership problems in the Country !

  Financial support is what our elderly parents need. To lessen the burden on the workers who are supporting them.
