It is really unbelievable !! The government must reverse this action. I will urge the students to fight on.

Government must also consider sacking the Minister in charge of Roads and Highways as he is inefficient and out of touch with the public on the matter regarding the already difficult cost of living in the country and his inability to forsee the crisis that will emanate from this rubbish toll collection.

This can easily bring the government down if they don't know.

Unbelievable? It is believable in a country where driving on good roads is considered a privilege and not a right.

I do not know what the problem is. What is wrong in paying a toll if it is going to be used for a meaningful purpose. In my University in Toledo, we pay 120 dollars every semester just to pack our cars and this used to provide the services that we need and pay the workers. They re not always relying on the government. If they will be truth and accountable then it is a laudable idea although it might seem harsh, but that is way we can move forward as a nation.

Why are people like you twisting the debate? There's nothing wrong with paying for parking but that's not what we are talking about here. Nobody pays to drive through anywhere.

Anane was the minster for road and transport; what did he use the monies for? impregnating women and remitting them abroad same was his master Kuffour. Ghanaian monies were spent on women instead of infrastructural development. How much money did Anane spent remitting his concubine in America and how did Kuffour spent on Gisele Yaazi? Answer those questions and stop your infantile and nonsensical comments
