GHANA HAS BEEN RAPED BY 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,NDC US$20 MILLION PARTY HQ., US$4 MILLION DODGY JUDGEMENT DEBT TO MRS RAWLINGS AND HER COMPANY, SUBAH, GYEEDA, WOYOMI, ISOFOTON, WATERVILLE, AFRICA AUTOMOBILE, CP, SADA, FORTIZ/MERCHANT BANK,FREE EXPENSIVE CARS FOR CHIEFS, 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We need education seriously!If Ghanaians were educated there would not have been this demonstration to ask for withdrawn subsidy. I wish the demonstrations were against the $3b chinese loan. That TUC sees nothing wrong with it. $3b not to set up factories but to improve infrastructure? What kind of infrastructure? What will be the returns from that infrastructure? We make noise about the wrong things. Rather than selling oil to improve the infrastructure little by little, we pledged the oil for a gigantic loan that will multiply and be difficult to pay.

My fellow concerned citizens and aliens, should this be all about - we graced in red & black clothing; placard inscriptions of all kinds; troops of buses and cars; profane utterances; 24 hr standstill production line, - heavens knows the rest. Should each and everyone amongst us rather submit a tangible suggestion for at least a portion of a solution, I bet we will drive this nation forward instead. Let us all be agents of peace and harmony, God bless our Homeland Ghana. Thanks for understanding.

The article you have written is out of place. The Ghana economy is part of the changes going on in the world market as a whole. You cannot hold Ghana government or whoever is ruling the country responsible for the economic condition. I would suggest that Ghanaians work harder and become more responsible and cut their coats according to the cloth. Ghanaians must be frugal at best. If you do not know the economic trends going on in the world, at least you should know the economic trends in Ghana if you want to contribute your views here. It is dangerous when you just follow other people's views and without your own. Be careful what you say, or else it will come back to hurt you and hunt you. This is my point.

As the days go by more and more people wake up to the reality of the ndc anti Akan hate agenda and their deep rooted corrupt dark souls of evil .This was first initiated by the Ewes and through Mahama and his brothers being championed today by the northerners. We see in Iraq/Syria the announce of the Islamic caliphate state and their map which now includes Ghana and the whole of West Africa .Most people are ignorant of the fact that unlike in Christianity and other religions whereby the leaders or priests are men of peace in Islam their imams or priests advocate for war and destruction of the non believers and when war starts every single one of them assumes the title emir and becomes the captain of a murderous horde as we saw in Libya and with the boko haram. The mosque is not only a place of worship but an army fortress or barracks and that is why they must in the design in every area which is not predominately Muslim its required to have a tall reconnaissance tower. we see in Accra and other places these mosques spring up all over the place at militarily very strategic positions but we are vigilant and when our bloody revolution starts we will raze all these structures to the ground and drive out this menace from our midst . There are some brainwashed idiotic fools who still believe mahama has good intentions but don't know he is a Muslim disguised as a christian which Islam allows and his only agenda is to weaken with corruption and destroy with negligence the Akan economy so the caliphate can be achieved that is why no project of strategic importance can see the light of day under his watch.As for the Ewes his partners in crime all i can say is have you ever wondered why when you go to Togo there the Ewes are very nice people and true African brothers but the moment you cross the Aflao border into Ghana the ayigbe wickedness , hate and evil starts? The ewes in Togo know these ayigbe are so bad and useless that they are not interested in reuniting with them but would rather throw them all into the sea. We should find a way to trick them into taking them back as we Akans will definitely be better off without this foolish idiotic people. Mahama and his brothers have stolen so much that even the bank of Ghana admits they dont know where our foreign reserves have disappeared to , i can tell you where , Turkey , Iran, Dubai and other Muslim countries where its safe for them. Congrats to Kumasi for hitting the nail on the head and exposing the discrimination and abuse of the civil/human rights with the WHAT HAVE WE DONE TO YOU demonstration , today we see idiots and saboteurs trying turn it into a question of mere economics , even one idiot woman came out with a humiliating brainless idea to go naked just to deflect from the main core issue of discrimination against the Akans. My people we have only one problem and if that's solved the rest will be easy , the problem is discrimination and the Anti Akan agenda of part of this mafia ndc . its never about npp , ndc ,left or right wing ideology politics but simply pepeni/ayigbe tribalism against Akan nationalist evolution. They are only attracted to ideas that only destroy our economy like this EPA paramount foolishness with the Europeans or giving away our gold fields to foreigners who never invest here in the name of prudent business , end result our people are exploited and made poorer. we shall never surrender or be fooled again. While we were thinking of a better Ghana for ALL citizens they were thinking of only themselves and destroying the future for our children . We need to have our revolution and secede to form our own state as they will never change.

Yes, if indeed the whole country can go on demonstration, and it could be orchestrated by NPP, as you stupid cow claims then it is clearly open that, Mahama was not voted as President during 2012 elections.

If the whole people embarking on the
demonstration are NPP politicians and supporters, then it means no one voted for this blood fool and useless Dramani Mahama during the 2012 election, and indeed he robbed the conscience of the majority people of this nation as it was made blatantly
clear during the Supreme Court proceedings.
Every NDC supporter and their so-called politicians should be killed

Fellow Ghanaians, let's pray for peace to prevail in Ghana until the next elections. The happenings of today are not different from those that preceded that 1979 Coup de Tat. May whoever comments on today’s worker’s demonstration do so with heavenly wisdom. Yes, times were hard in 1979. And times are perhaps harder today than it was in 1979 (I am now residing in South Africa). Demonstrations came after demonstrations. Only a few in Ghana then were satisfied with governance and policies of the times. We hoped some form of change would happen. And it did happen! I supported the change too, but I did not sing “let the blood flow”. But did it ever live to be positive change? No! The hearts of the people and the greediness of the leaders never changed. And we are worse off today than ever. My Brothers and Sisters in Ghana and abroad, let’s pray for God’s own hand in the affairs of the Land Of Our Birth. Victor Baidoo, South Africa.

I think this whole idea of demonstration is characterized by unscrupulous and opponent of current government to look bad in eyes of many and ordinary citizens.

What next after this, will the situation change over night, to make Ghanaian feel too big on their shoes.
Fellow, countrymen , let work together and build mother, ghana, rather than portray ourselves as enemies of progress

No one in ghana, can to power and create job overnight, it needs, hard work, dedication and determination to start from somewhere.

Let us not be deceived by others to tear the country apart, God bless mother, ghana.

For the first time in world's history, we had a former president and his vice leading demonstrations to denounce the government over their perceived economic hardship. Mills carried empty gallon to protest against Kuffour. Ghanaians sold their conscience for unprecedented hardship we have today. So the next thing you may be seeing is smoking out Mahama because people like you will start playing on our emotions. Take your better Ghana and give us our NPP Ghana back.

Whom are you fighting for? The corruption everyone is talking about started from ADAM inherited and revisited by Kuffour. It is a fact that the Busia faction in the NPP has had their share of looting again through Kuffour and so the Dankwa faction must take their turn to have their share. That is the meaning of “all die be die” This is what has called gripped the minds of even the bishops, pastors and imams among them to prophesised falsely without checking the fundamentals.

What is wrong with the conscience of these rogues who have pledge to sell everything in Ghana to foreigners with the aim of receiving just dividends for children’s children. They survive on the booty their fathers looted after overthrowing Dr Kwame Nkrumah. Today they have sold and misappropriate these ill-gotten wealth bequeathed to them by their forefathers through dirty campaign. Juxtapose Nana Addo and Kuffour, analyse these two men carefully (you can add what you know personally) what have these two men achieved personally if it has nothing to do with corruption? Kuffour`s corrupt allegations are very clear and glare that even the devil would be shocked to know the enormous mischief and evil this man possesses.

All we saw in eight years of Kuffour in office was day light robbery of properties and owning them at all cost. He supervised a regime of no shame, penetrated into state reserve lands and forcefully paid peanut for them. Siphoning from state account and redenominated the currency with impunity. They portrayed glare demonstration of arrogant and abuse of power. It is unbelievable how their numerous presidential initiatives, ended up in “MATREKO WO” island. None of them prospered just like his mentor Dr. Abrefa Busia.

Kuffour sold our precious assets: Ghana Airways and its properties abroad, Ghana Telecom, the oil Rig and Ashanti Gold Fields. He is the villain and the enemy of state Ghanaians must look for and demand justice, He is the demon and very evil who came to kill steal and destroy. Kuffour did not construct any road in Accra yet he managed to change and rename what his predecessors have done to create the impression that he is working

Nana Addo’s insincerity starts from his demeanour as a drug addict, his educational qualifications, and his dealings with the nation’s oil exploration which he is dying for to be president at all cost. This is what is making him to defy nature about his heath condition. Nana sources of income did not come from his personal sweat. He is where he is as a result of the booty bequeathed to him by what his father looted from the economy and also the bribe his father took, serving as a traitor to overthrow Dr.Kwame Nkrumah. Now that he has used up all the wealth through dirty campaign and empty litigations, what he thinks of doing is using his demonstration talent to buy the conscience and lobby by using of corrupt minds leadership position in the country; some of them who pose as men of God, to chastise Government and make the country unstable. The tactics of Nana Addo is nothing new to what his father did to Ghanaians. Their sole interest is to make every regime ungovernable by castigating lies, ugly insults, throwing bombs, killing women, burning markets, lengthy shallow litigations in courts and false alarm blowers. What can they boast of themselves and what have achieved for Ghana? They want Ghanaians to be sub-servants to them whilst in their own thinking and mental deliberations; they remain perpetually slaves to neo colonialism.

Today, you can see and hear anyone blaming leadership by just talking and blowing false alarm. However, if you analyse those personalities in question you can easily tell that they are more corrupt than whom they are accusing of corruption. The voice of the wise have been watered down and rubbished. The use of gullible words is more appreciated and encouraged and this is what is being imbibed into the minds of the mass illiterate and semi-literate people in society. What can Nana Addo differently of which Mahama is not doing? This is what he needs to dialogue and preach by using of decent language

1. Ghanaians are used to easy-living. Minimum effort for maximum pay. Ask every single employer in Ghana, since 2002 they have perfected the art of doing nothing, using connections, lying, cheating and talking loudly and insulting everyone who is not going to help them sustain this life style. Allan Cash calls it NATO ( No Action Talk Only)

2. They are waiting for a messiah preferably "kuffuor-like" and hence Nana Addo, who will come and get some free money from foreigners who are sympathetic, blind or wilfully ignorant like them. The money will be shared among the politicians and their extended families, cronies and friends who will then a)import commodities and set up table-top shops in every corner, nook and crany of the land. b) quickly convert the monies into dollars and take-off to Europe, Americas and south Africa to invest or hide.
The current Government tried to copy this template but failed woefully. Different times different conditions. Now they wished they had listened to JJ Rawlings when he said they should have jailed as many of the Kuffour Brigade as possible. If you follow a "giant " to the hills make sure you are prepared to climb high mountains.

3. Unfortunately right now it seems over 75 % ( according to Bawumia Arithmetic) of the population simply believe all that is required is for Nana Akuffo-Addo to become president. They believe he can get the money. After all, unlike poor fumbling 'northerner' JD Mahama, he has friends in London and Texas and Seoul waiting with open checkbooks, just like Kuffour. And he is already "rich" and "noble" ( he pays more taxes to the UK in year that he has paid in Ghana in the past 10 years). All he will need is to wave his magic wand and the slyly-cloying marauding voracious barracudas calling themselves variously as "financial engineers" and "to-na-ton" mercenaries (aka the middle-class?) will change their ways overnight and he will serenely go about providing free education to the 2-million or so hopelessly maladjusted 10-15 year olds. While at the same time continuing to allow the cash to flow as in 2006-2009.

4. Every Ghanaian of average inteligence and status seems to have a plan to individually and separately get money by fair or foul means to a) build their mansion/house b) get pot-hole proof vehicles ( ideally of Toyota/Nissan Brand). c) send their kids to private school locally or overseas d) enough US dollar/Pound Sterling reserve to enable frequent unfettered travels. And to do all this from a government subvented salary as a civil/public servant/MP/MCE/PM/DAC/teacher or even a "party foot-soldier". Then they turn around talk about corruption. People everywhere in the world want these same things but they know that they will have to work extremely hard over a very long period of time to get these things. But we seem to excel in coming up with ways of getting the good things in life by doing little or nothing at all.

5. Most Ghanaians seem to have the IQ of a lizard ( apologies to all lizards everywhere). Take this example: You are a Ghanaian living somewhere in the Eastern/Western Region, You have a piece of land your ancestors used for farming and some "creative" off-season traditional gold-mining.For ages thiey were able to use this system to maintain a rich culture and eco-balanced economy. You decide to sell this land as part of a concession to a group of young Chinese (and college grads from Utah, USA -check PBSonline for the documentary). They come with zeal and smarts as well as heavy equipment and completely destroy the land, the surface vegetation and rivers. Then you run to Accra and organize press conferences with tribal leaders and chiefs in sartorial lizard- colors to denounce the Government, insult the President. To add insult to injury, of course now you cannot even feed your own children in School with even plantain, cassava, cocoyam that all used to grow free and wild. Yes! you need a loan from Denmark (pop. 4 million, where everybody pays tax) for a dubious School Feeding Program and diet based on perfumed-rice from Thailand. Come on! Can you look into the eyes of a lizard ( cold blood, needs heat to survive etc.) and say you are smarter? But you see you are a Ghanaian so you are not allowed to think, reflect or even consider your actions. All you are required to do is find a convenient target to complain, blame, insult and if possible steal from- and everything is fine.
