  How many property owners do not pay property taxes in Accra, Tema, Kumasi, Tadi and Ghana as a whole...
  We cannot even be good stewards of programs... why, because we are so corrupt it's pathetic

  The Bank of Ghana (BOG) has no Eastern Regional headoffice. The BOG must ask for land from the King of Akyem (Okyehene) to construct this building. I don´t believe that the BOG has accurate data of the economic activity in the at least 12 Akyem districts which make up more than half the population on the region. The GDP and GNI of these Akyem districts are very high. They stem from:
  
  Gold mining
  Diamond mining
  Cocoa
  Oil Palm (the largest in West Africa)
  Timber
  Software development
  etc
  
  The money supply and capital in the at least 12 Akyem districts are wholly inadequate. BOG must remove impediments to the setting up of rural banks in these districts and encourage ADB and GCB to open branches in these districts.
  
  The government must further ensure that wholly owned Ghanaian banks, including rural banks, get at least 80% of the banking revenue.

  Nonsense, what has Seth Terkper or Mahama got to explain to us apart from propaganda? It is only the NDC that measures the performance of its appointees by the ability to spew lies and propaganda.

  NO LAWS ARE ENFORCED;NO ONE IS INDICTED OF ANY CRIMES COMMITTED; INCOMPETENCE AND CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE IS REWARDED WITH SHUFFLE SIDEWAYS, NOT WITH PUNISHMENT SANCTIONS OR SACKING. THE PRESIDENT IS WEAK AND THE KING IS DEAD. MINISTERS AND HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS DO WHAT THEY LIKE WITH IMPUDENCE KNOWING MAHAMA WILL DO NOTHING BUT PROMOTE THEM WHEN FOUND OUT.
  
  NO SERIOUS ATTEMPT IS BEING MADE TO TAKE OUR MONIES BACK FROM WOYOME, ISOFOTON, WATERVILLE, GYEEDA, SUBAH, AKONFEM, ETC. EVEN AFTER AMIDU HAS GONE TO COURT AND WON THE CASE FOR GHANA. THE CORRUPT JUDGES IN OUR COURTS REFUSE TO ENFORCE THE LAW WITH SILLY REASONS FOR ADJOURNMENTS.
  
  FOR THE MEAN TIME THE JUDGEMENT DEBT COMMISIONER HAS NO TEETH TO BITE; IT IS ALL HOGWASH AND A WASTE OF TIME; REVEALATION AFTER REVELATION DOES NOT PRODUCE ANY INDICTMENT. IT IS ALL A WASTE OF TIME AND TAX PAYERS' MONEY
  
  WHAT WE NEED IS A MILITARY COUP TO KNOCK SOME SENSE INTO THESE CRAZY POLITICIANS WHO ARE JUST TAKING THE PISS OUT OF GHANA

  HOW CAN YOU TAX THOSE EXCLUDED FROM THE ECONOMIC MAINSTREAM ENOUGH TO FUND GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT?
  
  WHEN BANKS POST PROFIT GROWTH OF 50+% AGAINST 7% NATIONAL GROWTH WHERE DOES THAT GROWTH FLOW FROM? AND HOW DOES THAT IMPACT THE WIDER ECONOMY?
  THESE ARE THE CORE ISSUES TO ADDRESS, NOT THE SYMPTOMS OF FUNDAMENTAL WEAKNESSES.
