Huh,so the condoms were allegedly from Nairobi,Kenya ? This surely sounds like some cooked story typical of NDC spinmeisters.Just like they tried "manufactured evidence"in that frivolous petition.

My brother, can't you that the donors want to disgrace Ghana using imperialists tactics? It is not a party matter at all. Please read in between the lines and let us kick this issue out.

Are you out of your mind ? Why should any donor accept the corrupt methods in Ghana. It is time to shape up and start being honest and not blame your failures on the West all the time.

Much as it is very possible that there is some corruption in this matter, we must open our eyes to the fact that these former slave raiders and colonialists do actually entice African officials with corruption only so that they can blackmail them to do their bidding in making it possible for them to enjoy juicy contractual deals and investment opportunities.

That is why they dont like honest African nationalists as our leaders.

Just cast your mind back to all the most corrupt leaders in Africa. They were all 'friends' or better put, stooges of the West - Mahama and kufuor not excluded.

As soon as I heard the NDC Government saying that Condom prices would be up, I knew something fishy was coming. The announcement of rise in prices of condoms by this Mahama government shocked everyone: How could they raise prices of such an essential commodity in a country, where women sell their bodies to buy food for their children. Then the likelihood of increase in HIV-AIDS and other Sexual Transmitted Disease.

I knew Mahama is planning something he will profit from, and then this matter has been exposed . All the reportage cannot camouflage the exposure that fake condoms were being brought here free to be charged at exorbitant prices for the NDC government and its functionaries...

Stop being foolish Mr George. Its your own people killing you. What if your duaghter or sisters boyfriend who has AIDs uses one of this condoms mistakenly on her and she contracts the disease. Would that be the fault of the imperialists. Some of you are so foolish no wonder Ghana is in such a dire and hopeless state because of its own people.

FDA pharmacist just op-ed a documents and delivered to the media about the MOH import fake condoms worth $6 million. When I read it, I thought the issue was long addressed but from this reporter, the govt has been sitting on this report since February and you sit there talking about imperial tactics to disgrace Ghana? Who is disgracing the Ghana, the greedy bastards or an administration no willing to tackle or fight corruption?

George there are a lot of mentally retarded adults in this country whose scope and interest of the world does not reach beyond a bottle of beer so you have to be very patient when you are presenting an issue like this on this platform.

For many of such lazy minds that have not escaped from the trauma of slavery and colonialism, living off the crumbs of their tormentors - in Ghana or abroad, is for them paradise. For them the global status quo of an inferior Blackman is fine with them. They dont aspire to anything beyond that shameful level. They therefore dont go the extra length to find out why we remain so corrupt and backward. They probably think that God created us like that.

This is what the problem really is in this country and we cannot wake them up to this core problem overnight but we must keep on persevering with patience.

All what I have to say is that Ghanaians should: 1. In their numbers protest the corrupted leaders system and to start to learn how to vote for no confidence in corrupted regimes. 2. There should be daily demonstrations nationwide. Need a special police forces to be established in Ghana to arrest looters and corrupted politicians to be prosecuted. Jail each of them for 50 years or more starting from the presidents to ministers, to MPs up to labourer whose aims are to steal or mismanage national resource and wealth

Adja Koo...the African cultures do not permit most Africans to think outside the box. One dimensional thinking is very common among African cultures. No wonder most culture that we encounter bamboozle,enslave or abuse us. Our Western educated leaders who return to Africa throw away 3 dimensional thought processes and go back to the one dimensional ways....which are ultimately leading to dumb acts, greed, short sightedness, and basic stupidity!!! If your president's are acing buffonish..how can a Manager in the West trust your judgement even if you have 2 masters degrees?

This guy is really horny, but all he has is two dollars. He goes to the nearest whore house and says to the man working there,

"Look, I'm really horny, but all I have is two dollars. What can I get?"

"Well, the cheapest we have is one hundred dollars. But I'll cut you a deal on two conditions. For two dollars, I'll let you go down two doors on the right, but you have to wear a black condom, and leave the lights out!"

The horny man agrees and goes two doors down on the right with the black condom on and the lights out. A while later he comes back out and says to the man working there, "Man, that was the best sex I've ever had, but why did I have to wear the black condom?"

"Well, you gotta show some respect for the dead!"

FAKE CONDOM IS WHAT CAUSED THE DEATH OF THE WOMAN IN THE WHORE HOUSE.
SINCE THE CONDOM IS POROUS IT WILL SPREAD DISEASE AMONG USERS.

This is not just plain corruption but Murder. where is our conscience as a people. we often blame our donors for most of our problems yet we do worst things to ourselves and the nation. How can people's lives be put in such a risk?. is there any hope for Ghana with this kind of greedy leaders who seems to have no conscience and only care about themselves and their families?. The very people to protect the vulnerable are those who put them at risk. this is sad and unfortunate. God help us all.

George, you seem to be missing the point. The cash used for the procurement of the condoms were from donors of Global Fund, not from the Ghanaian government. What has corruption and flouting of procurement conditions as stipulated by the donors got to do with imperialist tactics. You are either corrupt yourself or owe some allegiance/loyalty of some sort to one of the crooks behind this scandal. It is a disgrace, and does not put Ghana in good stead when it comes to managing donations from international donors. Think again and wise up, and say it as it is, bro!

You do not have the money and so you turn to donors for funds. Donors say use the funds for this particular thing and from this source, you agree and took the money. You then turn around say oh, I can buy this cheaper from another source and pocket the change. As it turned out, your source is flawed and goods received are inferior standard by our own FDA. You sit there and blame the donors? When will Ghana ever take responsibility of our corrupt deeds?

I now understand why the ministry of health setup a committee to investigate the activites of the FDA when the latter exposed tobinco for importing fake drugs. It seems president mahama is not in control of his government. Otherwise, he should call the MOH to order. There's too much stinking corruption taking place at the MOH whilst the president sits down unconcerned. In fact President Rawlings was spot on when he said president mahama has surrounded himself with vampires.

The order: 128 million, written in figures as (128,000,000) is certainly less than 130 million (130,370,400) delivered. In effect the supplier supplied more condoms than ordered!

I never knew we had such stupid and brain-dead people like George who was their stinking faces upwards instead of downward every morning. Here is a Donor Agency which is squeezing money from tax paying citizens in another country to help control HIV/AIDS in a DEBT-RIDDEN COUNTRY like Ghana only to realize that creators, sharers, and looters of state resources have "chopped" the money nyafu nyafu. And the son of a bitch like George and his edey be k3k3 people think the Donors don't have to say anything but contiue to throw their monies into the wide open pockets and mouths of Jhon Mahama and the edey be k3k3 gangsters.
