Yes the The cedi continues to drop drastically. Some of the measures are not favorable, and as to that effect, you the importer and exporters have, has the Right to show, demonstrate and share your views and mandate to the government and people of Ghana.
How can a government, be able to hold, stabilized the currency as to the dollars fo a whole 8yrs., and the current government can not? this shows how incompitent the current government is. Where did the current Minister of Economic affirs went to school? dose he think he is doing the Right thing for the nation, and the President elected to supervise all things is also sitting down uncorncern and approving his crazy proposals? Oh no this government had to go. Let all the nation demonstrate every now and than to say goodbye to the current NDC gornment to step down and come back next time as soon as possible.
Good luck Ghana

The chief surveyor at the Eastern Region Lands department will not sign any application unless a bribe of GHc 3,000 is offered. This has created a stalled problem whereby thieves who can afford to snatch lands from legitimate owners own properties all over the region - hence the proliferation of galamsey works.
Passport offices, marriage license, registrar generals department - all fall under this national ignominy.
All these impediments add to grag our economy down the tubes. Added to police corruption at barrier points tool booth collectors are under no moral drive to issue receipts to motorists, making it hard to account for exact money collected.This government is the most useless in history.

Are we witnessing a CIA sponsored, organised co-ordinated action against the Mahama regime which has most probably incurred the displeasure of the US government by not playing ball? Two factors are dictating the behaviour of USA Foreign policy in Ghana and other African countries.Firstly the rapid rise of the influence of China in Africa and the steady decline of American influence globally.The USA is determined to reverse this trend, the history of various empires shows that such declines are inevitable.At best far sighted USA Foreign policy makers could in theory manage such a decline in an orderly fashion in order to avoid worldwide cataclysmic upheaval. USA intelligence organizations such as the CIA are defaulting to the methods they are best familiar with which is to orchestrate the removal of regimes that refuse or are unwilling to cooperate.This invariably involves taking into account the perceived weakness of the target regime (in our case widespread corruption and mismanagement) amplifying this via the media, organised public protests and also harnessing and aiding any existing opposition forces. As always the hand of such foreign manipulation is cleverly conceived through the use of funded NGOs, Labour organizations, Professional organizations/associations and even media outlets on the payroll of the foreign power. Where the target regime is solidly entrenched in a one party state configuration with a weak opposition then direct military intervention is an option using trumped up excuses: we saw this in the case of Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi.A violent political confrontation is likely to be the methods resorted to in Ghana with coordinated civil disorder and mass protests. The current opposition cannot be guaranteed to be able to unseat an even corruption tainted NDC government. If the Mahama led administration reacts by cracking down on dissent then this will be used as part of the propaganda against it.While I am no admirer of the current inept NDC administration I believe that rapid far reaching reforms by the government to root out corruption may be able to take the wind out of the sails of these malevolent foreign interests and allow Ghana to continue in a peaceful trajectory with possible future multiparty politics possible. Any foreign induced intervention will lead to long-term chaos with inevitable severe economic decline.MANY OF OUR FELLOW COUNTRYMEN HAVE NO IDEA THST THEY ARE BEING CLEVERLY CONTROLLED BY POWERFUL FOREIGN INTERESTS.USA foreign interventions have never served the interests of the USA in the long run and almost always leave the host countries in total chaos and turmoil.

US has nothing to do with what is happening,it is all politics as usual.
Since Mahama is not called "Kofi Boateng" some of these Ashantis and some Akans will do whatever they can to kick him out of power,even some are calling for coup because they are not in power.
What is the difference between Kufour's time and that of Mahama's time how many Ghanaians were better of under Kufour as compare to Mahama ?
If the government cannot be bold to tell the people that things are not bad in the country as some are saying and cannot stop all these strikes through legitimate means you will continue to see all these demonstrations.

Why are the NDCs always trying to bring in tribalism? Akans are not as shallow-minded and vindictive as other tribes else Mahama wouldn't have won votes in Akan regions like Western, Central and Brong Ahafo.
The issue here is NDC are bad managers of the economy.
Despite the loot and share in Kufour's regime, they managed things better and Kufour appointed the right people to man our ministries. President Mahama believes in appointing inexperienced propaganda experts as ministers in very delicate ministries.
Image someone like Vicky Hammah, Ablakwa et al being ministers in a sovereign nation. It is an insult .
We know that no party is corruption free but my problem is that despite the unprecedented corruption, in terms of vision, control and direction this administration is the worst democratically elected one in the history of our nation.

"Ghana belongs to Ghanaians and not political parties". This should be the mindset of political Parties behaving like the country is theirs and all they do is plan how to win an election and not how to govern.
