There are some specific fields that we lack the needed expertise. To solve this problem the government of Ghana has over the decades made scholarships available for Ghanaians to study abroad in these fields. In some instances several people have been sent and not even one of them has returned. If you know very well that you are not prepared to live and work in this country and would therefore not return do not take these scholarships.
The Takoradi Poly Students who were sacked for applying with fake certificates must be prosecuted in a court of competent jurisdiction. Just sacking them is not enough.
Nowadays businesses and government organisations have stopped demanding Secondary School Certificate or Basic Education Certificate.
Each of these certificates are important. For example for many tertiary graduates the only certificate that can tell whether one can speak good English or whether one has adequate knowledge of Mathematics is the Secondary School Certificate.
Similarly the only certificate that can tell whether a tertiary graduate has basic knowledge of Ghanaian history, culture, agriculture and the basic geography of West Africa is the Basic Education Certificate.

Sulley Muntari CLINICALLY TREATED Ghana’s serious disease, CORRUPTION. He attacked corrupt NDC'S CREATE, LOOT AND SHARE BUSINESS! !!!--------
Below is what led to the brawl.
Sulley: WHAT IS THE USE OF SOO MANY G.F.A OFFICIALS & OTHERS HERE? You Are Basically Non-Essential and have no role or duties here. Your Number even dwarf that of the players... You receive Bonuses for no work done. You are a drain on the Govt.... You always make money on our back and you see every Tournament as a means to make money.... And You Have The Vim to question us why we want our money?
Moses Armah: Your money will come take time, the captain is speaking….
Sulley: Shut up, are you the one paying the money or you are the Prez?
Moses Armah: I won’t allow you to include me in your list of victims oo…..I'm a gangster more than you.
Sulley: So you can fight me eh (moving towards Moses’ direction disentangling himself from other guys retraining him).
Moses Armah: Am ready for you. You think i'm a coward?
Sulley: (picks a bottle and drop it, surprisingly jumps and slaps Moses) Fuck you!!
Moses: Returns the slap with a blow lifts a fork…and Jonathan Mensah holds Moses’ hand up.
Essien sits quietly, Gyan and Appiah speak Ga to Sulley, calming him down as Moses is whisked away by Saban Quaye

You are right.Growing indiscipline, corruption, moral decadence, apathy, greed, selfishness and lack of patriotism is a great concern. But whose fault is it? The absence of real leadership in the country is the cause and a problem. The chieftancy, religious institutions, political elite/class and judiciary have all failed to provide the kind of leadership that offers good examples discipline, selflessness, patriotism.

The ordinary Ghanaian is more patriotic than you think. The problem in Ghana is lack patriotic leaders. Lack of quality leadership in Ghana is the main cause of our underdevelopment. If you have ministers and leaders whose only interest is how to become rich for people to bow to them, what do you expect. When you have leaders who don't give a hoot about the nations health system because they can always afford to fly outside the coast of Ghana for western medical care for themselves and their fanilies, What do you expect?
When you have leaders who don't care about creating opportunities for the less fortunate in our society to uplift themselves for the benefit of thier poor families but this same leaders are able to push their own family members through because they are highly connected what do you expect?

This minister has scored no point in his analysis
What the minister refused to understand is that, citizenry would only be patriotic when they see Public officials living patriotic life. We are not blind. We see the kind of lifestyle that public officials live in this country. They must walk the talk. They should go learn from Rwanda what has made that country to be soaring to higher heights. A country which went to war over a decade is among the top 5 best countries in Africa.

Take the case of SADA, a good initiative and yet the managers became millionaires over night. They are walking free in Accra and Tamale. They shared the tractors bought for farmers, no action taken against the looters, what do you expect the rest of society to do?

And how did this lack of patriotism happened. J J Rawlings ruled the country under his brutal dictatorship fo 19 yrs. For those years he did not cultivate patriotism but ruled with propaganda false sense " of probity and accountability. Today the party he founded is in power and what do we see. Mahama learnt from his master, J J Rawlings and so far as they "create, loot and share" for the NDc it is ok with Rawlings.See how heberated Mills every day, because Mills will not do his dirty work. So Rawlings who voilently took overshould have instilled patriotism into his party and the masses. He was too busy murdering people he perceived as "enemies" and did not sow the seed of patriotsim. You ask yourself, the NPP left the country in afine economic position, how did it collapse so fast in a short few years under NDC. The country has been hijacked by NDc bandits, period.
