congratulations CJ, finally those with moral integrity muster the courage to face down these ndc pepeni and ayigbe criminals that oppress us Akans in our own country. pepeni has thwarted justice so many times since the time before he murdered mills right down to rigging the elections with those prejudiced against the Akans. we Akans will fight this ewe hegemony and pepeni tribalism with our nationalism awakening and patriotism . there is no more partisan politics rather strictly tribalism led by these pepeni toilet carriers and their lying homicidal ayigbe criminal allies . very soon the land of the Akans will be free and we shall leave them to themselves . we shall see how happy these ewes are when pepeni decides to rule them by force or how the Gas will feel when only pepeni or ayigbe idiots rule them . today all can predict the actions of the ndc just by looking at things through the prism of tribalism, short changing the cocoa farmers , adding taxes to burden the Akans since these useless pepefuo produce nothing . deny free education to the south as it is a bad thing for the Akans only good for toilet carriers and the list is endless. these ndc have no shame as they have no conscience and are nothing but the children of the devil that need to be set on fire through war or revolution . long live the republic of Akan

NDC must first trace and bring back all money that was stealt by the NDC elites from Ghana. These thiefs must be charged and put into prison to set an example to NPP and other political parties in Ghana. Unless these happen, no one will believe the 10 per cent hike. At the end it is the same NDC government who is going to manage the money and steal it again for their pocket money.

The money must be donated to an independant foundation which can monitored and evaluated for their deeds for women and children.

NDC has left trust!!!

Interesting how just a week ago Apaak was shamelessly reporting an alleged heist by armed robbers in his house where, from his own mouth, he kept funds for development projects. What we need to know now is whether the undeclared sums of state money that find their way to Mr Apaak's house will also be subject to a 10% cut?

This Apaak man is crazy. Perhaps he needs another arm robbers attack. They spare him the first time, hence making noise. What is 10% of their pay as compared to the amount they have stolen. Even Mayor Bloomberg of New York who has been taking only one dollar a month for the past 12 years doesn't call his sacrifice historic. CRAZY, CRAZY, CRAZY. Only God knows if you would not steal back more than that. Who in Ghana checks the government on how it spends our money? Tell us.STEALERS.

Dramani Mahama should refund every cent he and his NDC crooks has robbed from the Tax Payers through corruption, Judgement Debt and thievery activities. And we are demanding from stupid and incompetent Dramani Mahama is does that 10% represents their basic pay or gross

Finding no excuse for the waste of our money, the government lied to Ghanaians that wages and salaries alone eats 75% of our GDP. Why did he not mention this in the budget, or find a way to adjust this problem come 2014. He could also reduce the number of ministers, districts and constituencies if he is really serious. We have now been told that salaries and wages eat 53% instead of 75%. The Government should as from now stop making the single spine as an excuse for its abysmal performance and pay Ghanaian workers their due arrears.

Can this idiotic Apaak fuck off with his stupidity? 10% pay cut from the President and his Executives will not even make a ripple in the lake and that was a political gimmickery instead of the President tackling a serious problem.

If Korle-Bu can have 20% ghost workers, imagine how many ghost workers are there amongst the 700,000 government workers. If there are only 15% ghost workers in the 700,000 workers, that is 105,000 people we are paying that we shouldn't pay and eliminating that loophole alone can save government 1.5 billion cedis or $750 million.

Next government need to reduce the number of workers because we know there are excess workers roaming about doing nothing. There is no need to have over 600 people working at the Presidency including this stupid Apaak doing only propaganda and pompom waving duties.

The tax base should be expanded. The word is expanded not increase so that the over 70% of people and entities supposed to pay taxes who are not paying can be brought in to increase government revenue.

The government has not done us any favors with the gimmick 10% pay cut when it increased their pay over 100% just a year ago.

If an armed robber robs you of $100 and decides to give you back $10, it has not done you any favor as these thieves masquerading as politicians have done.

Cardinal, I was tempted to say to myself that you had said already what I was going to say as regards the steep salary increases Pres. Mahama sanctioned being part of the salary glut problem and then quit from writing a comment. But since I know Clement personally and see him as a friend, I guess my chipping in to say that I am also not impressed by the President's action and find his oozing about it as something phenomenal a bit too slimy to swallow.

Yes, Pres. Mahama is largely to blame for sanctioning all those big increases for the MPs and the Executive, actions which have contributed in no small measure to others also demanding their pound of flesh and the spate of labour disputes we have now. Had he exercised restraint, started cutting out some of the ridiculous colonial allowances which are being worked into the single spine scales, e.g., cost of 3 servants, free petrol, book and research allowances for lecturers, etc. being monetised, we wouldn't be facing the huge salary bill we have now.

As for the ghost workers, people up to the topmost of every state organisation are chopping from it. When my father in charge of the accounts of one state organ was causing too much trouble with his stringent refusal to sanction their stealing was moved to be chief of personnel, he said he discovered why the salary bill was always big and increasing and he never even saw some of the workers before. Well, he began an exercise to ferret out the persons behind the names or no pay for you, and was promptly moved back to the accounts dept! That was in the 1970s.

I can assure you all that "thieves and thiefettes" have been running Ghana since independence. Do you really think they'd stop what has become a habit for them? After all, Mahama is also a product of that rot. You guys shld check the commissions of inquiries the NLC set up after the overthrow of the CPP.

What is most annoying is how they could possibly think that well-meaning and thinking Ghanaians would fall for this insignificant gimmick.

What is GHC80,000 a month which amounts to less than a million Ghana Cedis per annum? NDC sharks like Agambire, Woyome and many others are making GHC200 million, GHC50 million and as much as €120 million and more for not even raising a finger.

And you know what they're doing now and that's coming from my source. Woyome has most of the money in well paying interest savings and making lots of money so all the delay with his court case is just so he will be able to pay the money back to the govt without the interest but at the same time the interest gained will cover all the cash he dished out to individuals in the govt. Very sleek. Also at the end of the day the court will only let his pay the money back interest free. That's the deal being worked out. This Ghana for you.

For lack of a better word, this highly insulting action of the President reeks of populism and propaganda mantled with gross unmitigated mediocrity.
It's extremely sardonic that instead of the Mahama/Amissah Arthur administration seeking to adopt the best practices and the mental resourcefulness to grow the economy whilst tackling the over-burdensome canker of unbridled and outrageously stupendous corruption, the classic act of the NDC administration steeped in propaganda, unintelligence, populism, excessive mediocrity and crass ineptness, has been once again employed to hoodwink the masses whilst courting public empathy, in the face of their humongous and crass mismanagement, gross indiscipline, thievery, corruption, lack of vision, lack of leadership, lack of effective and effectual leadership, all of which have culminated in the very situation in which they have had to resort to a pay cut.
Dr. Kunbour was not wrong when he said that, the very processes of thinking under this NDC administration had been relegated to the background. The question is, how did Ghana get to this point in our socio-economic development? What went wrong?
Indeed, it is clear to all well meaning and right thinking Ghanaians that, this Mahama/Amissah Arthur administration does not have what it takes to govern and the earlier they are voted out, the better it would be for the country.

The 10% pay cut by President Mahama and appointees is going to used as a yard stick not to satisfy the unbearable situations facing the ordinary man in Ghana. The cut will not have no significant impact on the ordinary man's pocket to help them break even when they're paid; instead the government will defend themselves by saying they've sacrificed a percentage of their pay check so they should also try to compromise with the present economic situation, meanwhile these middle income people are really suffering. If no seroius measure is not taken to salvage the economic situation to help the ordinary man to live a decent lifes with their families coruption can never be controlled

NOVEMBER 01, 2012
Prez Mahama's pay hits Gh¢ 12,000; Twice what Mills earned

It has emerged that Parliament has authorized an astronomical increase in salaries for the President of the Republic, Vice President and other senior members of government.

Reports say members of the National Assembly on Wednesday, voted to raise the emoluments of the aforementioned persons.

Consequently, the President is expected to romp home with a monthly pay of Gh¢12, 000 with the Vice President receiving almost Gh¢10,500.

Ministers of State and their deputies are to earn between Gh¢ 8,000 and Gh¢9000, officials have said.

However it is roundly believed that the new pay for President Mahama is thought to be nearly twice what the late President John Mills earned.

It would be recalled that Members of Parliament recently got a pay rise on the orders of the President, with each lawmaker expected to earn a monthly pay of Gh¢ 7,200- a move which attracted widespread criticisms from civil society groups and some political watchers.

It's call job for the boys. This is what JJ Rawlings has made this country turned to wolves. They will devour anything that comes their way. Leadership comes with commonsense and obviously this govts commonsense is let loot and share, after that will borrow more money and see if we can get the job done. But check this out since they don't have the expertise and knowledge of the job they will use the borrowed money to pay consultants and experts before so at the end of the day the money will still not be enough for projects or projects will never be completed. We are doomed forever opposite of Kwame Nkrumahs Ghana is free forever

This so called special fund for maternity n neo-natal care will be siphoned by the same people. it's just a political gimmick. if the prez wants us to know he is doung something for Ghana, he shd give 90% of his ¢12000 monthly salary to the fund and we will know he is doing something. Giving ¢1200 of your monthly salary is nothing compared to the money you have stolen from us. Even your per diem is larger than the ¢1200 you are cutting off. Masa, find another trick.

This is pure political campaign; there's nothing in it! Gone are the days when NDC could trick people with promises. Late Prez. Atta Mills once promised to put "money into the pockets of Ghanaians" but failed to honour that. Reducing wages of president and ministers won't help that much. What's the deal here then?

When a deputy minister of state declares that she's aiming to retire with at least US $1 million, everyone knows that the John Mahama and his NDC govt. is just fooling people. This "Window Dressing" kind of propaganda won't help anyway. So does John Mahama want all workers to tighten their belts when it's evident that his ministers and appointees are engulfed in corruption?

Tweaa! Who's going to buy into this crap? Just focus on he sagging economy and stop deceiving people.

With all the money that you fools have stashed away, giving this peanut which consititute a drop in the bucket, are not shameful of yourselves?

If you thieves want to win the hearts of the folks, then my suggestion to you all is to emulate the shining example of Uruguay President - Jose Mujica who have been parting away 80% of his salary of US$15,000.00 which is about $12,000.00 to charity. Beside this, he lives in his wife's farm house, with 2-Cops and his personal dog who watches outside his residence as his guards. Again, the only car he owes and drives to his office and back is 1987 VW beetle. This is what we call a leader who have his country at heart and think about his country folks.

These fools with cow-dung brains should not disturb our mind with such stupid rhetorics which are of no thought. We are tired of fucky PhD - holders who spew nonsense to the hearing of the good people of Ghana. Mahama is damn asshole for still keeping that son of another asshole -Fifi Kweetey in his do - nothing government who insulted the entire nation with his irresponsible tax comments. Mahama will get it till that arrogant Kweetey is relieved from his post. Insha Allah.

You can cut down your salaries by 10% and that wouldn't make any change in your life-style. You will still enjoy those fat allowances which can comfortably make up for the supposed 10% "sacrifice" you may be making. There's nothing historic about this. Retrieving all those stolen but discovered monies- those billions of Ghana cedis for development projects will be a real "historic feat" for Mahama. That is what all Ghanaians are waiting to see and hear happen.

When Prof. Busia realized that his Progress Party, the forerunner of the NPP, had come to power at a time of austerity,he took a salary cut. So did all his Ministers and even me, a mere Executive Secretary to the Prime Minister!Ministers and Presidential Staffers should check their facts before making such pronouncements.

Apart from our first president, Dr Nkrumah no other president is wise. They don't get it. Instead of our leaders to tackle Ghana's problem from the source they are all leading with no vision for Ghana. Historic my foot. Is that the solution to our problems?. Even if all the leaders, ministers, parliamentarians cut their salaries by 50% it won't solve the problem. 10% of what? How much does the president make? Our leaders need to fight to make Ghana a manufacturing hub. Our leaders need to go out there and sell Ghana and woo manufacturing companies to build plants and factories in Ghana to create jobs for the people. That's the answer.

Transparency and boldness is what is required to rule Ghana, but not dictatorship. Lets go get the work done for the Great Party - NDC. Ghanaians have no jobs and Nigerians are suing us in Ecowas Court for what? Let the Immigration be seen to be working in Ghana. They have to ship out.

Even monkeys, dogs and cats brains will not consider such diabolically criminal pay cut as an issue let alone consider it as historic.

What is historic about this? when people are manipulated to vote criminals into power only to criminally double their salaries to make it look lawful only to turn round and say we have reduced 10% to manipulatively calm tensions whilst those who voted them into power have no salary increase to merit a daily meal on the family table and when they talk they are slapped with the shock to leave the country.

Monkeys living far away on the mountains and in the Savannahs will not consider this as a shiit let alone historic.

It's historic in the minutive or no brain at all of guinea fowls brain like this so called doctor Apaak.

You moron, another armed robbery attack awaits him. What should we do or say to this quixote, this fool called Apaak? Has he lost his senses at all? Now I know why armed robbers attacked him and made away with so much money he stupidly said had been kept in his wife's bag, for a so-called 'special project'. He was talking shit on a Metro TV programme the night before the attack.. He has recovered so quickly from his ordeal, to pour out more garbage. We wish that armed robbers would continue to knock at his door.
