Rawlings is always right, fautless, Jesus, God of Abraham, Jecob, Isaac etc. He has never critized himself beccause he feels he is Jesus Christ. Its better he gets his mouth shut since he can't never be a president till he gets into his grave. We never saw any better Ghana when he was the head of state/president. His gorvernance saw exodus of ghanaians to seek greener pastures in other parts of the world. Where is the people's money you convescated? Thief, julo3. feafeto.

Isn't these idiots claiming the country is for them? So where are they now? They don't have to go and contribute, they can go and seat down and fold their arms without offering any constructive idea to solve the current economic downturn in the country. Ghanaians will never forget this cowardly actions of Akan's npp party in 2016, Ghanaians will eventually retain the great NDC party in to power in 2016, for they have the country and the people at hearts.

AUTHOR: SEE BELOW----------------------------
It would be recalled that before Election 2000, the Rawlings's P/NDC had ruled Ghana for 19 solid years. This era, as we all know, was marked by human rights abuses, tribalism, corruption, economic hardship, cash and carry system, and more seriously, serial killings of women.

What then did President John Agyekum Kufuor and his NPP do with the power given him between 2001 and 2009? This write-up seeks to find the answer under social infrastructure, policies & programmes, and good governance.

ON SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE • Kufuor's tenure witnessed the construction of two new sports stadia at Essipong and Tamale; the rehabilitation of both Accra and Kumasi sports stadia, and another sports complex in Cape Coast.

• Under Kufuor, a new Presidential Palace was built to house the president and his family; the Accra-Tema commuter railway line was constructed, and the Keta Sea Defence wall was built to protect the people of Keta.

• A $622m loan was secured for the construction of the Bui Dam & Bui City Project; the Boankra Inland Port was started (now abandoned); major feeder and trunk roads (Accra-Kumasi-Aflao-Kasoa-Cape Coast, Aburi), several by-passes in Accra and Kumasi including the Sofoline and Asafo interchange, and George Walker Bush 14km High Way were all constructed.

• The Peduase Lodge, which had been abandoned was restored; several boreholes were drilled to end the perennial water problems in Cape Coast and Tamale; the Aboadze Thermal Plant was expanded; the Kofi Annan ICT Centre for Excellence, and state-of-the art wood village at Sokoban in Kumasi for Anloga carpenters were all built.

• Another legacy of Kufuor is the construction of the Accident and Emergency Centre with a landing base at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH). This has saved several precious lives.

• Besides, 56 existing senior high schools were upgraded as Model Schools; two institutions (University of Education, Winneba, and University of Mines & Technology) were given autonomy to run as public universities, UDS had Campuses at Wa and Bolgatanga, 21 new senior high schools, 1,334 new JHS blocks, 1,331 primary schools, and 5,164 pre-schools were built.

• Also, over 5,000 affordable housing units at various parts of the country were built. A cocoa processing plant was built in Kumasi. The West African Gas Pipe Line was nearly completed. There was expansion of the road network from 39,000 km of accessible roads to 65,000 km by 2008.

• The Ghana @ 50 ‘legacy’ projects like recreational parks, renovation of public buildings, and historical monuments across all the 10 regions and their district capitals were built. The government also built 14 fishing harbours in our fishing communities.

ON POLICIES & PROGRAMMES • The Kufuor government introduced free basic education through the capitation grant (fee- free). There was school feeding programme where pupils from some selected public basic schools were given one hot meal a day.

• The National Health Insurance Scheme was introduced to replace the cash and carry system and make health care affordable. There was also the introduction of free maternal care to reduce child mortality.

• The government frequently released brand new buses to GPRTU, and introduced the metro mass transit, replaced the Ghana Airways with Ghana International Airlines (all meant to improve the transportation system.

• The NPP introduced the Northern Development Fund with a US$25m seed fund to reduce the North-South poverty gap; free bus ride for school kids, brought Zoom Lion Company Limited to rid our cities of filth, created Youth Fund with a $50m seed money and instituted the National Youth Employment Programme, which rolled out seven programmes including community police, teaching assistance, health care, agric extension, etc to reduce the country’s high unemployment.

• Kufuor also introduced the mass cocoa spraying exercise, frequently increased the producer price of cocoa; subsidised fertilizer, and made prompt payment of bonuses to cocoa farmers.

• In his quest to mechanise agriculture, the Kufuor government imported 3,331 brand new tractors, but unfortunately, Mahama Ayariga, and Alban Bagbin used their positions in government to buy some at only GHC1,000.

• The annual cocoa yield increased from 350 metric tonnes in 2000 to 750 metric tonnes in 2006 with an income of US$1bn to the economy. By 2010, Ghana had hit 1m cocoa production. This feat alone moved Ghana from the 4th position to the 2nd position in terms of the world’s leading producers of the product.

• The size of the Ghana's economy quadrupled from US$3.9m in 2008 to US$16.3m in 2008, thus ending the year with GDP growth rate of 8.4%.

• Whilst inflation was reduced from 40% in 2000 to 9.8% in 2006 (single digit) and later 18% in 2008, interest rate fell from 50% to 25% during the period under consideration. The daily minimum wage was increased from 42Gp (4,200 old cedis) in 2000 to GHC2.25 (22,500 old cedis) in 2009.

• A New Education Reform was put in place in 2007 with special emphasis on Maths, Science, Vocational and ICT. Kindergarten education officially became part of our basic education system.

• The admission of JHS graduates into SHS was computerised to reduce corruption and hassle of parents; there was Baah-Wiredu Laptop project aimed at giving one laptop to every school child.

• All the 38 Teacher Training Colleges were upgraded into tertiary status (Colleges of Education); Distance education programme was introduced for teachers and workers.

• The government also introduced Untrained Teacher Education Programme for Pupil Teachers to become trained teachers, Access Course to Teacher Training Colleges for SHS graduates who could not do well in Maths and English. The purpose was to upgrade the knowledge of the teacher, beef up the teacher population, and subsequently help to address the falling educational standards in the country.

• Private universities sprung from 4 to over 50, whilst existing infrastructure in the public universities and other public tertiary institutions were expanded through the GETFund.

• The SSNIT Loan Scheme was restructured for students to take more loans. Plans were far advanced to start not only Single Spine Salary Structure for public sector workers, but also a new 3-tier pension scheme for both private and public sector workers.

ON GOOD GOVERNANCE • His Excellency, President J. A. Kufuor tolerated all shades of opinion and verbal abused from ‘Dr.’ Asemfoforo, an NDC paid serial caller, and J. J. Rawlings, who at one time referred to the then sitting President as ‘Ataa Ayi’ - a notorious armed robber.

• Ghanaians witnessed the National Reconciliation; the reburial of three former heads of state namely; Okatakyie Afrifa, Gen. I.K. Acheampong and Gen. F.W.K Akufo and five senior military officers, who were executed in 1979 by J. J. Rawlings.

• In addition, over 100 assets of noble and hard working citizens seized by J.J. Rawlings were deconfiscated to their owners.

• The criminal libel and seditious laws which had provided 10 years’ maximum imprisonment for offenders was repealed. The People’s Assembly concept which made it possible for Ghanaians to interact with the President and his Ministers on yearly basis was instituted.

• There was all-inclusive governance with the likes of Mallam Issah (PNC), Dr. Paa Nduom, Prof. Badu Akosah, Prof. Hagan - all CPP leading members, working under the NPP administration. Kufuor also facilitated the appointments of Dr. Ibn Chambas as the Secretary General of ECOWAS, and Ekwow Spio-Garbrah as Chief Executive Officer of CTO.

• Kufuor created 60 additional districts and raised some of them to municipal & metropolitan status to facilitate local governance. The District Assembly Common Fund was increased from 5% to 7.5%.

• There was a plethora of FM Radio stations, regular media encounters with the President, broadcasting of news in the major local dialects on the Ghana Television (GTV), which hitherto had been in English and Akan.

• The Kufuor government passed the Representation of the People Amendment act (ROPAA) into law to enfranchise Ghanaians in the diaspora, though Afari Gyan failed to make it operational.

• Kufuor should also be commended for the expansion of mobile phone network across the length and breadth of the country as he removed tariffs on mobile phone importation.

• Kufuor created a Ministry for Public Sector Reform with the view to developing a new and positive mindset for public sector workers; Ministry of Women and Children’s Affairs to empower women and improve their lot; and the Ministry of Chieftaincy Affairs to tap the rich expertise of our noble traditional leaders.

• Also, June 4 and the 31st December were removed from the statute books as public holidays. The 64th Infantry Regiment were disbanded to other units to ensure discipline in the Armed Forces.

• Kufuor featured regularly at all G-8 Summits. His excellent diplomatic relations with world leaders enabled Ghana not only to attract attention and investment worldwide, but also he was unanimously elected to chair both the African Union (AU) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). Under his leadership, Ghana had the opportunity to assume the rotational presidency of the UN Security Council.

• President Kufuor also won several international awards including the Chatham House Prize Award in 2008 as a result of peace and economic growth which characterised his two terms in office. No wonder he was given a rousing welcome by Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II of England.

• Again, President Kufuor took a leading role in mediating in regional conflicts including those in Liberia, La Cote D’Ivoire, Kenya, Sudan, and Zimbabwe.

• As a true democrat, he was even criticised by his own party members and sympathisers for not hanging onto power before the Tain by-elections when the NPP’s Presidential Candidate, Nana Akufo-Addo was leading in the 2008 Presidential elections.

• Kufuor is on record as the only President who left office in the peaceful manner in which he entered it. This is indeed a lasting legacy because all his predecessors were either overthrown by the military or metamorphosed themselves into civilian presidents.

• Kufuor introduced the Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP) programme, where the aged and other vulnerable people in Ghana were paid monthly allowances of between 8 and 15 Ghana cedis.

• Under President Kufuor's leadership, Ghana became the first sub-Saharan African country to cut in half the proportion of its people who suffer from hunger. He and LUIZ DA SILVA of Brazil jointly received the 2011 World Food Prize.

• He introduced micro finance loans to help small and medium-scale businesses, the Export Development Fund (EDIF), the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) which makes it possible for local producers to access the US market, as well as, the Ghana Poverty Reduction Programmes I & II were all aimed at improving the lot of Ghanaians.

• The Kufuor-led NPP administration purchased VALCO from the Americans at a cosmic sum of US$20m.

• On corruption, a minister of state under his administration was charged for wilfully causing financial loss to the state and together with other members of the previous government, was sentenced to a prison term.

• Ghana was the first country in Africa to submit herself to the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM). It would also interest readers to note that for the first time in 50 years, Ghana under the leadership of Kufuor earned a respectable B+ rating on the international financial scene in 2006 and this indeed, facilitated the country’s successful bid to access over US$ 750m from the Eurobond market.

• The passage of the Public Procurement Act, Financial Administration Act, Internal Audit Agency Act, which made the agency exceed its revenue target every year, the Office of Accountability Act, the Whistle Blowers Act, the importation of new police uniforms and over 1000 police vehicles to combat crime, the Right to Information bill, the establishment of Fast Track High Courts, the strengthening of state institutions like the SFO, CHRAJ, among others, were all geared towards the eradication of this social evil in the Ghanaian society.

• Last but not the least, Ghana under Kufuor’s reign became the largest recipient of Millennium Challenge Account funds of US$547m to combat poverty in Ghana. The bilateral and multilateral debt cancellations as a result of Ghana joining the Heavily Indebted and Poor Countries (HIPC) initiative and the UN's and World Bank’s lucrative jobs for His Excellency, J. A. Kufuor even before the 2008 general elections make him stand tall among his contemporaries. He made Ghana, an oil producing country as oil was struck in commercial quantities in 2010.

How could the excellent record enumerated above be a factor to the NPP's electoral defeat? I leave it for the judgement of the Ghanaian voter in 2016.

God bless Ghana! God bless the NPP!! God bless Kufuor!!!

Rawlings is the single person who can be in fact blamed for ghana's economic woes. He made it known that he came into politics because he could not pay his yokegari bills- he came into politics because he felt that was the only way he felt he could make ends meet. Today see his fat protruding eyes and he has courage to blame all others except himself, even Pres. Kuffour. Casely-Heyford cannot say it any better than he has.

The National Economic Forum (NEF) has been a disappointment because there wasn't broad

discussions and consultations before the event. Why was such an event not published in papers

with an e-mail address for the public's input? My input is that we do not lack policy (e.g.

to reduce: debt, unemployment, corruption, etc.), which should be determined by a few think-

tanks in government. But again economic policy is what the forum was about. What we lack are

business.plan-like projects, which are comprehensive, widely debated for transparency and

ready for direct implementation. The ministries should have been tasked to come out with

their best projects which will have the greatest impact. These projects should then have been

discussed by the various committees of NEF.
Government should act like a client who wants to build. She should give terms of reference or

policy: e.g. budget (not more than this year's allocation), number of rooms/floors, etc. Without that, there is no policy concept for the architect to work on. This year's budget (hopefully) already gave the policy concept, like the architect's drawings. This cannot be implemented directly by artisans. We need engineering to work out detailed drawings and specifications. This is where we fail woefully. Why go to Akosombo to ask architects again to tinker with the facade, change some colors, with the hope that artisans can then set to work when the engineers at the ministries are being paid to NOT give detail-drawing deliverables? E.g. Ministry of Agric could have designed a module into NYEP to reduce graduate unemployment by renting parcels of farming land in the plains, acquiring inputs, taking proposals for commercial farming from groups of graduates, giving loans seed money to NYEP as coordinating consultants, who will pass the money through banks for managing disbursements (to short-listed projects) & for managing repayments, etc. Perhaps, it's not late for the Committee to be setup to ask the ministries for input. I could give helping support to such a committee.

Lets face it, all these ashawo journalists and media realized after peddling the propaganda and lies of the NDC that the people immediately saw through them and stopped buying their newspapers or listening to their radio stations , so they now offer watered down versions of the truth instead of the cold hard facts . 98% of the people of Ghana have rejected the corrupt moral and perverse ndc govt policies be it so called fight for sodomy and gay right to fake economy discussions . we do not have these pepeni and ayigbe idiots as you have to be worth something or worthy to hate we simply read my lips here totally DESPISE THEM. we despise their corruption , we despise their hatred of the Akan majority , we despise their looting and their daily lies , the list is endless as the rotten through and through. Not so long ago they tell us this is the Action year for the Better Agenda as the continue listen very carefully the murdered mill's agenda . Then they tell us they are only in first gear , now they say with the economic forum not only has the car stopped but they are now shopping around for IDEAS to find petrol to get the car moving again in a direction they don't know ? yes we deeply despise such pepeni ayigbe incompetence and they should know after this period will follow the period of FURY. Just look at the misery and woes they have brought upon our people and still they refuse to LET OUR PEOPLE GO. they are too busy steal the little foreign exchange left that the cedi is plummeting down. they are allies with kuffour and his band of robbers who hijacked the npp for a while and made sure they destroyed the grassroots network of the npp so npp can not truly lead any opposition fight to the end like the Ukrainians did . these foolish ndc don't seem to figure out every time they come up with a way to freely spend the tax papers money we see through their lies and propaganda . so after spending a thousand dollars a day per person at this 4 day national economic forum without consensus what do they have to show for it except more lies , propaganda and wishful fantasy thinking . shame on you kuffuor for giving them support , if you can find it in you to care then advise your partners in crime to resign and go away for good

Casely Hayford is a dishonest partisan politician. He may choose to call himself a political analyst but he should be charitable to tell the world that he is extremely partisan. To be blunt he is a deep seated NPP; filled with partisan politics and patriotism in him. It was all confirmed when he granted that shameless interview to a radio station (....) running ahead of time to announce the boycott of the forum by the NPP. I have since lost all respect for Casely. look at his choice of words, and it further confirms his partisanship. Let us remember that Ghanians are discerning. The time will come when we shall tell them in the face that, you must first demonstrate love for country before love for party. The NPP boycott is a summary of their love for party and NOT love for Ghana. This will forever hunt the NPP for many many years to come. The politics of boycotts and antagonism must be assigned to history. It is an era of participatory democracy and partisanship. God bless our home land Ghana!

Ghana's, and for that matter ECOWAS, economic fundamentals were destroyed by Rawlings' 1981 coup. The PNDC ignorant young men and boys brought all economic activities in Ghana and West Africa to a halt. Ghana's borders were closed for over two years, and that made trade by road, which was how about 75% of trading within the ECOWAS countries was conducted, almost non-existent.

Worst of all, almost all economic activities within Ghana stagnated. Because the borders were closed barely any imports, bear in mind that almost all the imports were done by road, were coming into the country to supplement the dwindling food supply in the country. For some reason the rains, as well, stopped coming. To compound matters, these young PNDC fools terrorized every trader and business person in the country, except those traders and business people who were close to them. Fellow Ghanaians were killed for owning something as simple as a television or a carton of canned milk. Is this what Rawlings is unashamedly proclaiming as his economic legacy? To make matters even worse, the PNDC seized monies from Ghanaians who possessed as little as 500 cedis.

This is just a small list of the insanity, called PNDC, visited on Ghana. What Rawlings and his group of criminals did to Ghana's, and to a some extent ECOWAS', economic and social fabric borders on disaster and catastrophe. Why doesn't he and his cronies just go away?

Fellow Ghanaians were killed for owning something as simple as a television or a carton of canned milk. Is this what Rawlings is unashamedly proclaiming as his economic legacy? To make matters even worse, the PNDC seized monies from Ghanaians who possessed as little as 500 cedis.

This is just a small list of the insanity, called PNDC, visited on Ghana. What Rawlings and his group of criminals did to Ghana's, and to a some extent ECOWAS', economic and social fabric borders on disaster and catastrophe. Why doesn't he and his cronies just go away?

Mr Probity and Accountability has not submitted any account on the Nsawam Canneries since he and his wife stole it from the people of Ghana made it their own. Let us not forget that. And also if he and his cronies and tribesmen could return the monies they have stolen and deposited in banks in Lome, Equatorial Guinea, Kenya and South Africa, maybe Ghana would not be in this poor shape.

Rawlings,-why don't you shut up if you have nothing to contribute to the economy of the country. You and your 'charlie wote' legon hungry lectures destroyed the economy of Ghana-any fool knows that. You sold all the state assets to your cronies. Your wife got the Nsawam cannery for free. You had twenty years in government as to president Kufuor's eight years. Your corrupt party is still in power,- so you stop polluting the air with your underdeveloped mentality. Majority of Ghanaians think, you need some form of pyschiatric assistance.

Your hatred for Rawlings and all he says or does has caused you to become so myopic in your thinking.What makes your analysis right and that of Rawlings wrong? If you were that good an Economist, why is Ghana still in economic dungeon. Please do not blame it on Rawlings and the NDC because that will be a pathological lie.Your cohorts- Kuffuor and the NPP are largely to blame for our economic retardation. Please get that into your cast iron head.

The 11 year quasi military regime of JJ was the period in which the seeds of Ghana's post-Kalabule phase of political patronage, grand corruption, impunity and decietful and tribalistic propsganda were sown and nurture to establish a new dominant political movement blending CPP, NPP and pro-Rawlings forces into a protected Umbrella driven by greed and absolute power but bereft of ideological foundations. Who started the buying chiefs, who started election rigging, who started intimidation of opponents with the state machinery, who started building a political entrepreneurial class with the sale off state assets and the capture of state contracts designed to steal state resources to finance the buying of political loyalty. By the end of the Rawlings a lootocracy was well in place, the attempted dismantling and shifting of the balance of power by Kufuor, reunited these greedy guys to march back into power in 2009 with an appetite for graft never seen in this country before- Judgement Debts, Gyeeda, Suba, Youth in Agric, Zoil, etc were all schemes to shift massive resources into few hands and back to the Presidency and Party to re-establish their financial dominance of the political patronage and funding landscape having had to abandon force and intimidation as the main instruments of control and loyalty. JJ your umbrella has grown in impunity and economies of criminal scale
