Watchmen don't look at one side alone,they look every where watching to catch glimpses of any unwanted elements around the premises. The CCG had been and still is the watchdog for the mate meho party since it was created by the initiative of K A Busia. The core of CCG is made up of only "Hen akan fo" people (not the reasonable akans).

We the people in this country don't need the Christian Council to tell us about the current deplorable conditions in the country. Your supporters are definitely oblivious to the realities on the ground because they've always lived on the fringes of the economy and thusare unable to determine whether they are worse off now or not. But for those of us on whose back the economy is built, we agree wholeheartedly with the assertions of the Christian Council.

The truth hurts,the Govt has failed the people of Ghana,thats the hard and gospel truth.To invite the IMF to help to manage your economy, after all the resouces Ghana can boast off is an acceptance of failure.
Most people who do not want anyone to speak into their lives is a manisfestation of pride.
If you have never travel outside your home country you cannot compare things properly.This has nothing to do with an Akan or none Akan.What every nation want is good governance.The presidency is not an experiment.You need to understand on how to bring people together,appoint those who are not in your party or neutral to key positions if you want to be a good leader.Ghana has been drawn twenty years back by Mahama.What profit do you gain,if a president is from your party and you have no food on your table,cannot afford to go to the hospital.Vote wisely and dont vote for a liar.In politics,most people who applied to go to parliament should be responsible personalities,who can take care of themselves and family.In countries where this rule exist corruption though might be in the system,but not at the rate we are witnessing in Ghana.A school leaver as deputy minister,what are you expecting.A president you have no knowledge about economics,goes out promising day after day without any calculation.Finally he finds out the state coffers are empty and turn somewhere for help.Listen to the realities on the ground ,for we have no time to hear the stories and liars anymore.

JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA is a liar and a thief as evidenced in his personality and pronouncements. MAHAHA has no integrity as an individual.
MAHAMA lied to Ghanaians about his abilities, competencies and skillset: THAT HE CAN DELIVER TO ENHANCE THE WELLBEING of his followers. But everyday he continues to fail those who voted him into power by worsening the little they have through his corrupt practices, fraudulent activities through his incompetent ministers, etc.
Do Ghanaians need the Christian Council of Ghana to tell them what they are experiencing now?

We have too many square pegs in round holes. I personally know of some MP's who are now ministers of state but have never worked in their lives. They just join a party and spend money so lavishly that automatically qualifies them to become national leaders. Very sad story for mother Ghana.

It's quite absurd and unfortunate the way things are going in this country. Is the absolute membership of the Christian Council not Ghanaians? The other day Pastor Mensah Otabil said his mind on the sickening nature of this country and unfortunately resulted to some nasty comments from the same Government spoke persons. It will interest the President Mahama led Government to know that Ghanaians have lost absolute confidence in him. I therefore challenge him to call for fresh elections today and "wo betepoo"

A time when the future looks so bright and everything is getting back on track in deed, getting back from where? Have the NDC government at any point in time accepted failure and bad management for them to tell us things are getting back on track. When did things fall out of track? And what are they doing differently now that makes them believe things are getting back on track. Have the Mahama led NDC government honoured outstanding statutory payments to NHIA,GET FUND and the district assembly common fund? To name only a few. How much was in areas before the administration of the country was handed over to them and how much is in areas today.

The Christian council members are also ghanaians also, so they have the right to voice out their concerns when things aren't going on well in the country.
Are they not the same people you so call politicians go to for prayers when elections are drawing near and during election, now you don't want them to tell you the truth you are hiding from the people, who know what is happening in the country.
Even we who are not in the country know that things are not going on well in the country, because whenever somebody call you, is about hardships, price increase, um
necessary Taxes and tax increase but nothing to show for.
I was in the country in March this year, I asked for a price of something to buy for a family member, I was told is 35,000 000, because I was about to go back, I didn't have enough on me, I told him I will send him money to buy it when I get back.
I call him to find out how much it costs now, because I knew it will be increase, only to be told that it's 50,000 000, just within three months after I left.
Now you tell me that everything is okay in the country?

i feel pains in side me when i see people speaking out of ignorance. There are number of times i wished i was not born here in Ghana. When look straight into the educational sector, i see backwardness and i feel pains for the next generation. When i look into leadership in this country, i feel great pains inward. When i look at the citizens i see them being a great burden to mother land Ghana. I always ask myself, if you really love Ghana why do you sit down and allow only one party to suffer. Why do you want your party to come to pwoer before you can help solve the problem.. So where is the love. Lack of knowledge my people perish..you guys enjoy speaking on behalf of your respective parties when they are even at a great problem. America would have never develop if their citizens were behaving like you guys... I feel more american. Keep being with your retarded brains...you are a disgrace to planet earth...

Unless one lacks analytical mind,majority of Ghanaians are aware of the NDC admin'tion propagandists Communication machinery in gov't.Theirs is to refute what is not in the interest of the gov't to receive Salaries at the end of the month is what they know how to do best ! So,what do you expect from this so-called leading Communicator, Godwin Ako -
Gunn .
The Christian Council utterances is a reflection of the actual impoverishment of the people on the ground across the Country.
One do not need statistics of projects as against the basic everyday need of the people
to throw dust into the eyes of the people.Man
must live ! Hardships in all aspects of the word, is painful to mankind.So what is Godwin Gunn talking about ! Therefore, some leadership in Ghana in particular must have Compassion for their own people in general as against personal affluent of the leadership.
That's the way forward and that is what leadership is all about !

Pure nonsense. What happened to freedom of speech? So the CCG cannot comment on the current state of affairs? What a joke! The Mahama led government obviously has a lot of time on its hands to respond to every statement. This is clearly a government without a clue and focus to resolve the current hardship Ghanaians are facing. Instead, they are busy trying to hide the truth about the current economic woes of the Ghanaian citizenry. What a shame!!!

The Christian Council of Ghana is perfectly right when they say the people of Ghana are losing confidence in the Government by the day. The people cannot come out on the street and start shouting at the Government to know that the people have lost confidence in them. Anybody who does that will be considered likely to be out of his/her sense. There is lot of disquiet in the system if Government propagandists don’t know.
Government and its officials should not attempt to steal in the upcoming elections if they say they are popular. We all know they are planning to steal the elections again as they did in 2012. I dare say that this Government could never have won the 2012 elections straight; the best was to go into re-run if they had not stolen.
The amount of money pumped into the elections is the cause of the current woes the country is enduring. All categories of people were financed to facilitate the win, I know this for sure.

For this guy to say CCG should not criticize the government but rather praise them for their "good words" is so degrading to this government and I wonder is he is playing stupid or just showing the most extreme form of blind allegiance. Nobody in Ghana today is unaware of the challenges with a depreciating cedi, energy issues with no end in sight, declining purchasing power for every Ghanaian and so much individual and community unrest. You have to accept being criticize and promise to lift the country up. But to pretend all is going well and the government is performing and deserves to be praised tells me that they are not living in reality. Times are tough and people should be allowed to voice their opinions without retribution.
