Absolutely sad story for Ghana, and the sake of governing. Mahama has not turned up to encourage Ghanaians and that is not dedicated loyalty, and total passion for country and people. This dump Ghana NDC and his incompetent politicians, will never have those precious values obtained from Nkrumah and oneness. Politicians have divided this once great nation by deception. They do not give at toss about country or people, which is why the people are apathetic. We have had no quality of leadership for decades, with either of the pathetic lying parties. Once again we must know that we cannot achieve anything as a country with such backward politicians.

we are tired of the reckless willfulness of these leaders from minority tribal groups who only come with corruption in their hearts and hatred of the values and potential of the majority.This govt due to their anti Akan agenda and discrimination saturated by hate and envy of the Akans can never do anything right or good . Their wickedness is so deep in their subconscious and conscious that its fully geared to destroy the Akan economy so anything they think will benefit the Akans will be sabotaged , ignored or thrown out . we have no choice but to regroup and do as much as possible without involving the govt , ndc or these pepeni/ayigbe mafia criminals . Corruption , discrimination based on their tribalism , hegemony and chauvinism has eroded all unity within the nation .Akans all over the place are waking up , with the BA chiefs voicing their reservations about GMO , western region , central region are protesting under their breaths , our dear Ashantis have made their position clear so we expect the political parties with understanding of the Akan plight like the cpp , ppp and npp to stand up or be forgotten. We can not wait another 2 years as by then the damage will be cemented beyond repair . Eyered is now everywhere and we reluctantly realize only a bloody revolution can set our people free . Its not that they are unprepared of do not know what to do to get Ghana back on track but the hate in their hearts make them continue on this path of destruction of the Akans . they are doing EXACTLY what they planned to do so dont be fooled, just examine the EU agreement.If this EPA was so good why didnt they push that proposal through the UN for the whole world to benefit . we shall be exploited to the brink of slavery all because we have an illegitimate election rigging ayigbe/pepeni govt seeking international recognition and approval , the same way jj signed us off to the IMF . Only a fool can be deceived into thinking an election is the solution as it will be rigged again, we are wise to remain reserved and keep an open mind as many wanna be leaders fall short of being a genuine progressive leaders rather they are more likely to be in cohorts with the mafia political oligarchy that has a stranglehold on our people
we know many have been brainwashed into stupidity so do not see the truth. have you ever asked yourself why is it that when they hear the call WE AKANS they go into a stupefied frenzy of hate ? why is it that Akans are now very cautious of even saying who they are and where they are from , why is it that its only the Akans who believed in the melting pot of Ghana and disregarded their diversities . why is it that today in the ministries most traumatized Akans will only speak Ga or English yet ewes , northerners can freely converse in their mother tongue ? Talk about aggressive tribalism and where its coming from , who started it ? Hegemony , narrow mindedness and blaming all other tribes except their own was never started by the Akans but we can also learn the game very quickly

Private schools in the country are defying the government order not to charge in dollars by requesting parents to pay the cedi equivalent of the dollar-based fees.For instance, a fee of $1,ooo dollars a term last yearis to be paid at the current rate of the dollar ie 3,300 Ghana cedis.
I expect the fair-minded Education minister and the fundamentalist Okudzeto to regulate fee payment in these institutions to protect us from the Shylocks!

High food prices is due to poor roads into food growing areas. How many times have we been hearing that foods are rotting while the government attention is focused on winning the next election? Do we expect the farmers to carry the food they produce on their heads to Urban centers?
If vehicles cannot ply these roads to food growing areas, what should we expect? NDC is a disgrace to Ghana yet, let election be held today and due to tribalism and its stinking additives, they will win hands down.

Ghana's rich class got their money mostly through preferred government contracts and or stealing through bribery, corruption, nepotism, favoritism and tribal preferences with a little outright stealing from government coffers.
Now that prices of goods and services are finding their true level relative to the value of our currency, Ghana's poor should march to the homes of our educated elite and rich class and demand for their share of Ghana’s humble pie since the idea of mass marches is endorsed by Ghana's NPP as an end-all-be-all tool of agitation befitting of serious intellectual discourse. While at it these easily persuaded bunch can have an epiphany that the days of government handouts is coming to an end and there is no such thing as free lunch from government without future ramifications to the economy of Ghana; free education eat your heart out for the battle of funding is yet to reveal its ugly head.

You Ghanaians do not know what you want!
1. You want free market but you seem to want price control.
2. You want capitalism, what we have here in the West but you want Government to be your provider!
3. You want subsidies from the Government but you do not want to pay taxes.
4. You want good roads but you do not question who has to pay for it.
5. You want jobs but do not want to work.
6. Now you are crying for food but the lands lay fallow when each person wants to sell anything each can lay hands on. Do you guys know about gardening? Of course you believe gardening is for the illiterates but majority of Ghanaians are illiterate anyway. Even Michelle Obama has garden at the White house! Do not cry about high food prices!
7. Who do you want to create jobs when you definitely know that you have to create the jobs in a capitalist environment?
You Ghanaians really want your cake but are eating it. You do not know what you want except wasting time on the streets. You are either idling or demonstrating or indulging in useless political arguments. It is only in Ghana that politics is as usual even after elections. You surely do not know what you want.

Can the author or anyone please tell me what the size of a 'bowl' is, as referred to in the article? Is it the good old 'olonka'? As long as we produce less and import almost everything, our chances of stabilizing the cedi will remain slim. As a contributor stated earlier, the tax net is so small it is almost impossible to do anything with that revenue. Although living overseas continues to be a challenge, the difficult situation back home makes travel attractive for many, a situation which I also think can be troubling because it is never as easy as always portrayed. Despite the belief that we (Ghanaians)are lazy, I think a large proportion of our people are hardworking and industrious. A little bit of guidance and support will bring out the best in any average person. Let's pray by all means but let's also realize that spending all our time in prayer camps will not yield much for us as individuals or for the country as a whole. Also, as a nation, we need to hold people in leadership accountable even if they are our favourite politicians. At the end of the day, we all need the basic necessities of life so no politician (from party A, B or C)should be allowed to take the people for granted. God bless.

1. You people eat too much at a single sitting
2. You people eat too much rotten food.
Stop blaming government for all your ignorance and backwardness. Visit any flourishing business in Accra, and you will recognize the crude and greedy nature of the business. In the food industry, the less you eat and drink in Accra, the better your chances of ill-health and long life!
It is simple commonsense and we as Ghanaians lack it period. Replace all the ministers with your fathers, uncles, sisters and whomsoever you wish, and they will not make a dent.
It is you the people who have screwed up our country. All you freaks from everywhere outside Accra, who have invaded a small city, pillaged and choked it to death.
Without all the lawlessness and pandemonium, we could become a civilized nation again. Just maybe, ugly face Busia was right. I miss the COLONIAL GOLD COAST!!!
