HELPLESSNESS, HOPELESSNESS & FEELING OF DESPONDENCY HAS GRIPPED MANY IN GHANA TODAY.
GHANA HAS BEEN RAPED BY THESE NDC IDIOTS. WE DO NOT NEED ANY NATIONAL ECONOMIC FORUM, WE NEED A NATIONAL COURT OF JURISDICTION TO PUT MAHAMA AND HIS CABINET ON TRIAL. GHANA'S HOPELESS ECONOMIC SITUATION, TODAY, IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. NDC HAS OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES IN OUR HISTORY INCLUDING CRUDE OIL & STEALTH TAXES. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED THE BIGGEST LOANS IN OUR HISTORY. IF THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS AND THE ECONOMY IS IN SHAMBLES, THEN,THEY MUST BE PROSECUTED. THEY MUST GIVE THE MONEYS BACK TO THE TREASURY. WE DO NOT NEED ANY ECONOMIC FORUM. SET UP A COURT IMMEDIATELY. IT HAPPENED IN THAILAND RECENTLY, PRIME MINISTER YINGLUCK SHINAWATRA WAS REMOVED BY THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT FOR ABUSING POWER. LOOK AT GHANA, EMBRAER PLANE SCANDAL, STX KOREA, US$20 BILLION NDC PARTY HQ., US$4 MILLION JUDGEMENT DEBT PAYMENT TO MRS. RAWLINGS, SUBAH, GYEEDA, WOYOMI, ISOFOTON, WATERVILLE, AFRICA AUTOMOBILE, CP, SADA, FORTIZ/MERCHANT BANK, AKONFEM AND A HOST OF OTHER DODGY JUDGEMENT DEBT PAYMENTS. BUYING VOTES WITH CASH, LAND CRUISERS & LAPTOPS JUST TO WIN ELECTIONS. WHY NDC?????? WHY??? OUR SUPREME COURT COULD NOT HELP BUT DESCRIBED IT AS "ALLIANCE TO CREATE, LOOT AND SHARE" WHAT A SHAME? ?? AND YOU CALLING GHANAIANS TO A WASTEFUL ECONOMIC FORUM. NDC, THE MONEY IS WITH YOU, GIVE IT BACK TO GHANA. NPP, I SALUTE YOUR COURAGE FOR NOT ATTENDING. NPP REMAIN SMART AND VIGILANT!!!!

@WE BRING IN CONSTRUCTION LABORERS FROM OUTSIDE. CHINESE DISEASE RIDDEN EX CONS TO IMPREGNATE OUR POOR WOMEN. THEY LEAE AND THESE KIDS BECOME A BURDEN TO THE GOVT.
@TOO MUCH BORROWING
@WE DONT PAY BACK THE DEFICIT
@NO FACTORIES.
@GOVT MUST BE DISCIPLINED IN SCALING DOWN PUBLIC SECTOR CORRUPTION
@WIDEN THE TAX NET
@CUT DOWN PUBLIC SECTOR JOBS AND SALARIES
@ECONOMIC AND GOVT DECENTRALIZATION
@PLAN OUR CITIES WITH STREET NAMES, ADDRESSES. IT WILL MAKE BUSINESSES AND DECIMINATING EVERYDAY INFORMATION FASTER, EFFICIENT. THIS WILL AID THE OVERALL GH ECONOMY.
@A growing economy which would produce a greater number of better-paying jobs would also help.
More vocational training in high school would also prepare people for good jobs.
I think that government programs like job-creating infrastructure improvement and job retraining would be positive.
@EDUCATE AND PROMOTE PUBLIC SAVINGS, INVESTMNTS AND RRSPS SAVING INITIATIVE PROGRAMS THRU THE BANKS FOR THE PUBLIC TO ENGAGE IN.
THE MORE PPL SAVE, INVEST. THE BETTER THE FUTURES WILL BE. FINANCIAL LITERACY PROGRAMS, COURSES FOR FREE IN SCHOOLS, MARKETS,BANKS ETC....
GH IS NOW A SERVICE AND IMPORT NATION. IF U CANT CREATE, U ARE DEAD!
THE GOVT, PRIVATE SECTOR MUST CREATE NEW SECTORS AND ALSO DEVELOP MORE CAPACITY AREAS TO SUBSTITUTE FOR THESE IMPORT DEFICITS.

I think the Author of this article is confused. A grace period, in a lay man's language, is a time span within which one usually does not have to pay a loan right away, or a waiting period before payment of a loan begins. However, the Author writes:
"GOG will also have a grace period of 60 months or 5 years within which to settle the loan." This assertion is wrong and deceptive on the part of the Author.
Rather, the loan amortizes over a period of 25 years which is properly stated at the last segment of the article. And by stating that fact, the Author ends up contradicting himself. Attention to details buddy.

The Mahama led NDC gov't should provide a model of this new community day SHS that it intends to build ie the 23 with the world bank facility for it to be costed independently to put the figure of $4.3million dollars in it's right perspective.
What should Ghanaians expect a new community day SHS to look like, what facilities would a new community day SHS have to warrant a cost of $4.3million because we have been in this country where 6 classroom blocks have cost about 3 times more the cost of similar such facilities even with more features, constructed by private corporate bodies, in meeting their corporate social responsibility objectives.
The Ministry of Education should provide Ghanaians with a model to cost it because the Mahama led NDC gov't has lost all credibility amongst Ghanaians and the international community, and it's affecting the fortunes of the country.

NPP AS USUAL
Just taking loans left and right to chop!
Why can't we live within our means and stop borrowing? We have been subjected to a nation of beggars. It's really sad to watch what the NDC government is doing to our country.
I think the Author of this article is confused. A grace period, in a lay man's language, is a time span within which one usually does not have to pay a loan right away, or a waiting period before payment of a loan begins. How ...

LOl. Yes, that is exactly what he meant to say: 'deafening silence.'
However, in English, the expression 'defining silence' also has a meaning, and that is why I left him alone on that front.
wow, sanitary pads for students? what in the world

Refer to your name...if you give create jobs basic necessities can easily be catered for by people and gov't will only spend few on those things. Am not sure if you know the basic necessities of life dude
Is mahama gover't ready to distroy private businesses? Private companies go in for loans from banks to construct school blocks if u canot pay them why go for loan for new schools? Are we serious?
Why is NDC full of fools? Even though they are starving, unable to educate their children, live in poverty whilst a few enjoy, have their businesses collapse because they have no electricity, they will continue to vote NDC. T ...

Why do we have to borrow to do everything in the country. This is ridiculous. This government should put any project aside and concentrate on water, health and power in the country.
Manufacturing!!! Bring in the chinese to set up a factory for biodegradable pads and diapers. The made in Ghana sanitary pads are not affordable and remove the tax on these items.
Can Okudzeto Ablakwa show Ghanaians where the 50 SHS promised in 2013 are sited, when they were completed, how many students are utilizing the facilities, etc, etc.?
Ablakwa should provide these figures as part of their so c ...
