Why is building a marketplace anywhere in Ghana the responsibility of the national government? Unless, we stop this kind utter nonsense, Ghana will continue to be a third world country. It sounds even worse when that statement is attributed to the President of the country. God help us!

Haba!!!Haba,aaa!!! the Kotokoruba Market in Cape coast, a new 15,000 capacity stadium in Cape Coast, some fifteen years ago, these announcement were made. The whole Central Region is in need of serious developments, such as factories, factories and factories and agriculture investments by both private and the central government.
There must be more consideration upon creation of vibrate central region, instead of waiting for some sort of construction that never ends.

Nobody can hide the light and true destiny of the great nation of Akan. they use all kinds of schemes and tricks to undermine or deny a proper standard to us but we shall never surrender. we shall change and adapt as like the Israelis we are the chosen people of God and he in his great design has made us diverse but unified in spirit. the ashantis like the tribe of Judah are and will remain an integral part of our being to to attack any one part we all end up feeling it sooner or later. they have succeed in turning some of our chiefs and kings against us and work for their evil ungodly agenda but we still see clearly . God has brought us into the 21st century and with that a new system of governance and state of mind based on democracy since it is HE alone who blesses the individuals with the gift of leadership wisdom and justice irrespective of status at birth. he has shown us the blue print of the way forward in the bible and other holy books and the time has come to free ourselves from this man made bondage called Ghana. just as in the Ukraine we must fight so the truth will come out , fear not the battle as they will crumble like the walls of Jericho . cast away our so called fake leaders and politicians who are nothing but cowards and like our enemies fear even their own shadows . yes God has put a million fears in their empty bodies as he who does not fear the Lord , the Lord will ensure all fears of the world will reside in him. They threaten us with superstition , juju and what have you and we say fuck you and go to hell as the divine power is with us . Yes all the tribes of Akan are fingers on the same hands and God has ordained we remain united so our strength and light will be visible throughout the whole world and universe , our time has come . everyday its becoming clearer and clearer to all children of Akan that we must prepare mentally for a battle of freedom . they come with tricks that say we must take a non Akan as our leader because its nice ? do they not think that out of 30 million Akans we can not find sensible down to earth leaders and warriors to lead our own people to our own destiny? a govt of the people and by the people is what the 21st century democracy is all about . let them continue to play with the consensus and other figures that justify their fantasy and enable them to marginalize the participation of the Akan majority in the Affairs of their own land , to marginalize us thus preventing us to afford a better standard for our people . The had of God has given them pestilence after pestilence but they refuse to let our people go , soon they will be swept away like chaff in the hurricane of fury . Long live the republic of Akan and don't you forget it as now the Fanti speakers, Twi speakers, Ashantis and other tribes of Akan are now one .

The President does not have to prove his critics wrong but rather prove himself right. The risk of proving your critics wrong is the temptation to work to their agenda rather than stick to your own programme and deliver it. To be honest, Mr President, the promises are becoming too many. For example, shortly after your numerous promises in the State of the Nation address, including the district hospitals then the Ministry of Health (MoH) announced the suspension of all work on them. According to MoH, the directive was from the Finance Ministry. So whilst you are making these promises, your finance minister is also putting a stop to them, probably for lack of funds.

Ghana: Kuwait Promises One Billion Dollars Soft Loans to Support African Countries

press release

The Amir of the State of Kuwait and the Chairman of the Third Africa-Arab Summit, His Highness Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmed Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, has promised to establish a one Billion Dollars Fund to offer soft loans to African countries including Ghana to accelerate their development.

He explained that, the initiative was not only to help strengthen the partnership between the two regions but to promote economic growth in African countries which he said could be achieved through an investment-friendly environment.

The Amir further announced the establishment of an annual financial Award of one Million Dollar for development research work in African countries in honour of the late Kuwaiti philanthropist, Dr Abdulrahman Al-Sumait. The award is to be supervised by the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences.

Sheikh Al-Sabah revealed these at the opening ceremony of the third Africa-Arab Summit held at the Bayan Palace in Kuwait City, yesterday. The Summit aims to create a platform and opportunities for investments for both African and Arab countries and to discuss issues of common interest to chart the way forward. The last summit was held in Sirte, Libya in October 2010 whilst the first conference was successfully hosted by Egypt in 1977.

Touching on the theme, "Partners in Development and Investment", the Amir expressed the hope that the conference would serve the common interest between the two regions which he believed will fulfil the strategic partnership they were both seeking. Adding that, it has also underlined "Africa and Arab's determination to stand up to challenges and obstacles that prevent them from achieving their hope of development and growth."

He lamented that food insecurity in both Africa and Arab countries hampers on the growth of their economies in spite of the fact that "we are bestowed with arable lands, skilled workforce and raw material and wealth that can be invested to achieve food security which has become a dire need in view of global conditions leaving many states suffering from a regression in their rates of growth and prosperity".

He therefore called for initiatives to overcome "the long years of non-development, and catch up with the march of integration and achieve the aim we seek to reach a strategic partnership which can only be realised by work not idleness, by integration not division and friendship not enmity."

Jimoh Ibrahim Throws Energy Bank Of Ghana Into Crisis Over Loan Portfolio

Energy bank of Ghana is in deep board crisis over how to recover loan granted to Bar Jimoh Ibrahim, the chairman of the Bank. The loans were taken by companies within the Energy Group and most of the loans were diverted. The bank secretary has summoned several board meeting, which cannot hold, as most directors refused to attend. The directors are jittery over the huge loan taken by Nigerian corporate virus Jimoh Ibrahim popularly called the corporate undertaker. The bubble is about to burst due to non-repayment of various fraudulent loans granted to his companies within the Energy group including Air Nigeria with forged bank resolution, which were diverted into Jimoh Ibrahim personal account without the knowledge of the company directors. One of the items in the board meeting- agenda is the adoption of Jimoh Ibrahim $5,598million loan consolidation proposal into a newly floated company called ENERGY INVESTMENT (GHANA) LTD. The company is headed by a former First Bank dismissed credit officer.

This company is also the investment arm of the bank as the MD/CEO has no power to invest, a dollar or cedi of the depositors fund. It should be noted that even the MD/CEO of Energy Bank of Ghana, has been under three months contract in the last four years, which is renewable by Jimoh Ibrahim every three months. Bar Jimoh Ibrahim used the companies within the Energy Group to obtain various loans from Energy Bank of Ghana without the consent of the directors of the companies. The board resolution is usually signed by Jimoh in his capacity as the Chairman and any lawyer nominated by him will sign as company secretary. The loan is then diverted into Jimoh Ibrahim personal account and finally to ENERGY INVESTMENT (GHANA) LTD for investment by Jimoh Ibrahim. During the Air Nigeria era, several fraudulent loans were taken in the name of Air Nigeria without the knowledge of the directors but this came to my notice during repayment period. These loans once taken were diverted into Bar Jimoh Ibrahim personal account. These loans were used to finance several other investments, which has now failed. The MD/CEO of Energy Bank of Ghana has been mandated to source for international loan with lower interest rate to restructure these loans but so far no luck. The objective is total restructuring of the loan taken by Jimoh Ibrahim, which is in excess of $5,598million
Since this year 2013, no board meeting has been held by Energy Bank of Ghana. The Energy Bank Managing Director, Samuel, a veteran of the banking industry with over 27years experience is pleading for retirement before the bubble will burst. Samuel, the MD/CEO is finding it very tough to restructure the loans and has offered to resign which Jimoh Ibrahim rejected with threat to assassinate him. This explained why Bar Jimoh Ibrahim published his intention to retire from Energy Group as the GMD in January next year, just to avoid international prosecution. The situation is so bad and every director is now being very careful as the bubble may burst any time from now. Energy Bank will make history as the first Nigerian Bank to fail in Ghana where depositors will lose their money. Some depositors who are aware of this development have started withdrawing their deposit and money from the Bank. One of the branches in Ghana is seriously having a run down on it activities. The bubble is already bursting.

THE LIFE AND JOB OF THE MD/CEO OF ENERGY BANK OF GHANA IS ON THE FIRING LINE.

Where on earth, apart from Energy Group, is the contract of employment of a Managing Director of a bank fixed for three months and is subject to renewal by the chairman. With this type of contract, the Managing Director job is on the firing line every three months. Just few months ago, Dafe the Chairman of National Mirror Editorial Board was alleged to have committed suicide BUT we all know that Jimoh Ibrahim murdered him. This explained the case of Femi Ige, the Managing Director of Newswatch Communications Ltd, who just took over from Ray Ekpu, Dan Agbese, Yakubu Mohammed and Soji Akinrinade group, whose contract was not renewed last two week. All effort made by Femi Ige to explain, how innocent he was, on an irrelevant issue boarding on Mrs Kayode house maid turn secretary that Jimoh Ibrahim has been sleeping with, turned to deaf ear. Femi Ige, who did not know how Jimoh Ibrahim sex scandal involving a staff house maid leaked to the public, was fired. Even Steve Ayorinde, the former MD/CEO of National Mirror has been reduced to CEO without any power to manage the National mirror. Today Jimoh Ibrahim has taken over as the Editor-in-Chief of National Mirror and a junior staff under steve before his elevation as CEO of the newspaper now issues query to steve.

It should be recalled that, it was the Afrixim Loan of $40million granted to Air Nigeria that Bar Jimoh Ibrahim diverted into the acquisition of Energy Bank of Ghana. The loan was obtained in Sept 2011, transferred into UBA account in London in faviour of Energy Bank of Ghana and the bank was commissioned in Feb 2012. In addition to the $5000million loan, another loan of $598million dollars was taken for the failed International operations of Air Nigeria. Many Nigerians can recall before the closure of Air Nigeria, how passengers were asked to contribute 50 pounds at London Gatwick Airport, which resulted to scuff between the staff of Air Nigeria and the passengers.

The business strategy of Jimoh Ibrahim is to use Air Nigeria or companies within the Energy Group to raise loan and the loan will be diverted into his personal account. The entire business empire of Jimoh Ibrahim exist on loans, fraud and fraudulent diversion, of which, many of these loans will still be outstanding as at the time Jimoh would have retired from Energy Group. There is no business being generated by his business conglomerate, no business development strategy and no marketing strategy to move the business empire forward. Nicon Insurance Plc is under liquidation, Nigerian Re-Insurance Corporation is out of operational existence due to non- compliance with the statutory requirement, the Sao Tome University and Energy Bank of Sao Tome are closed economy investment. It is only a matter of time before the bubble will burst as Jimoh Ibrahim is currently facing various tax evasion charges by FIRS. A critical review of his entire business group by technocrats will confirm the above assertion.

Energy Bank is in serious crisis with over $5,598Million loan taken by the Chairman, Bar Jimoh Ibrahim; the bank is in grave danger. Energy Bank of Ghana is technically dead and its operations will soon be suspended like Air Nigeria for one year, by Jimoh. The central Bank of Ghana is not aware of the rot in Energy Bank of Ghanan. Nigerians travelling to Ghana and transferring money through this bank should be careful. The fraudulent activities of Jimoh Ibrahim within this bank cannot be numbered. When, I told Nigerians that Air Nigeria was a flying coffin, many believed and those who were lured away by Jimoh Ibrahim CNN advert having been calling me for assistance. Today, another round of CNN advert is being advertised on Energy Group every week. Nigerians should watch out for another drama as Energy Bank of Ghana is about to fall. These CNN advert, were done in the days of Air Nigeria and suddenly the Airline was closed. In the aviation industry, Aircraft are supposed to be insured in line with the aviation rules, that no chairman of an airline should be a Shareholder in the insurancing company. In the case of Air Nigeria, all passengers were insured by Nicon Insurance Plc and re-insured by Nigeria Re-insurance Corporation; these dead companies are owned by Jimoh Ibrahim. It means that in the event of air accident, the beneficiaries of the passengers will not be compensated and even any surviving passenger will not be covered by the airline insurance.

Any bank that accepts Jimoh Ibrahim transaction must be ready to sack the Managing Director of the bank or have the entire board dissolved or the bank must collapse. Afribank now mainstreet bank and Former Oceanic Bank are very good example. In most banks, Jimoh Ibrahim comes with such a heavy loan request, that on default, the board will be in crisis and Jimoh will ask the Directors to provide total solution to the loan problems. At this point, the Directors are all in crisis managing the difficult loan portfolio with daily threat from Jimoh. Most of the securities pledged are structured to expire within the life of the loan, without the critical issue being made known to the bank Directors. A careful study in all the banks where Jimoh Ibrahim has transacted business will reveal this secret.

These propagander system has gone on for long time in the central region by the nonsense NDC party.They will take 8yrs to construct a small capacity market and stadium,and at end of the day,they will come and ask for your vote again,because they are sure the Fantes are the people they can take for a ride.The first oil well was struck by Acheampong in 1974 on the shores of Saltpond,what have the Fantes acheived from it?Because the leaders and chiefs in the Central region are rogues who are only after money to feed their big bellys.Since Rawllings up to this time, only three people are enjoying the oil welfare in the central region,and even these three people are not from the central region.And the stupid leaders of the region are sitting down like dumps saying nothing.What type of people are the Fantes?people who does tolerates all nonsense.Look at what happen to Arthur-Mills.When a chief tells Mahama to only look to God,and he should;nt forcuss on his detractors, what is the sense in this.since 2008 to now what has Ndc achieved for the central region?The Fantes should better wake-up from their long time sleeping,and be the first class citizens of Ghana,because WE are the first people of this country.

A man's wife asks him to go to the store to buy her cigarettes. He walks there only to find it closed. So, he goes into a nearby bar to use their vending machine.

At the bar he sees a beautiful woman and starts talking to her. They have a couple of beers and eventually end up in her apartment. After they've had some fun, he realizes it's 3 a.m. and says, "My wife's going to kill me. Do you have any talcum powder?"

The woman gives him some talcum powder, which he rubs on his hands and then goes home.
His wife is waiting for him in the doorway and screeches, "Where the hell have you been?!?!"

"Well, honey, it's like this. I went to the store like you asked, but they were closed. So I went to the bar to use the vending machine. I saw this great looking chick there, we had a few drinks, one thing led to another, and I ended up in bed with her."

"Oh yeah? Let me see your hands!"

She sees his hands are covered with powder and says, "You liar! You went bowling again!"

Is that $10 million dollar road just a graded useless road or a first-class road tarred with asphaltic concrete complete with pre-cast concrete kerbs to hold the asphaltic road edges in place and protect the edges from rain and wind erosion?

We know miracles do happen occasionally in politics, sadly there is no way the status of this nation is going to change in time to effect the party promises made by the President and his NDC, time is fast running out for you I'm afraid. The nation still waits for better improvement in non-performance of the current go-slow Ghana government.

You are not proving any body. Its your work to do what you are suppose to do and you even promised to them, so please do your work. Even you are not going to your own pocket money to do them so spare us these talks.

After almost six years as vice president and president of Ghana this president is still using the future tense while we have gone through the past five years and we are in the present of 2014.

The recent state of the nation address did not tell us about where we were in 2008, what he has achieved, where we are today and where he is taking us.

All we hear repeats of whenever he talks to the nation or a church congregation is "I will, I shall, I have instructed, I have asked,...etc." and when his instructions are not implemented, he comes back not with sanctions against those disobeying presidential orders, but with more promises. WHAT A LEADER GHANA HAS BUT THEN 50.7% OF THE VOTERS ALLEGEDLY VOTED FOR THIS KIND OF LEADERSHIP. AS THE SAYING GOES YOU CHOSE THE BED SO LIE IN IT AND ENJOY.

The Asantes hate northerners. It is as simple as that. You went to the extent of saying that Liman has spat cola all over the castle.

Why do you keep on talking and not delivering. Just deliver and people will do the talking for you. What a failed presidency. The worst in Ghana's history.

It is good news that Assin-Praso-Asante Bekwai 60 kilometre road is rehabilitated.

We should complete other road projects under construction to help improve traffic flow, especially in Accra.

We should also rehabilitate our railway network as a matter of urgency to further improve transportation.
