You need to be realistic for once.

Stop behaving like the proverbial ostrich and get your head out of the sand.

This situation cuts across partisan politics.

NDC SHOULD TELL THE GHANAIANS TRUTH AND STOP JOKES. GHANA GOVERNMENT SHOULD PAY HIS DEBT AND GET MORE GAS FROM NIGERIA.

This is the main matter... Ghana owes Nigeria a lot of money for gas supplied over the years which Nigeria is yet to collect courtesy of west African brotherhood...

However, this patience will run out at a time and techniques will be used to get back some of this money being owed before it becomes bad debt!

Dramin Mahama and his NDC bunch of bananas are not serious about building
up the the nation to a progress country apart from being practicing corruption, stealing, rape, lies, incompetency, arrogant, shameless fools.

Isn't it a disgraceful a nation such as Ghana with all our resources, such
as Gold, Diamond, Manganees, Bauxite,
Cocoa, Timber and even Oil, still we
have to go to the world Bank to ask for a loan of $156 million American dollars, pay high interest on it only
to buy Sanitary Pads for our girls in schools and our mothers, how?

Why should we go to IMF in the first instance when Mahama can give away
$152 million American dollars for free to Alfred Agbesi Woyome? $80 million
American dollars in GYEDA Robbery, SADA, SUBA, NKONFEM BREEDING which never exist. AO Ghanaian, Ghana have Mercy on us and our nation.

Wonder if we will ever know the truth. When the Nigerian workers went on strike, we were told that that was the reason we had to go on this new load shedding exercise. We were also told that the load shedding would end at the end of October, however the Nigerian workers suspended their strike and started supplying Gas; this did not stop the ECG to maintain the status quo. Now we are being given another bullshit

Small, rich and endowed beautiful country, Ghana, pepeni mahama and his greedy bastards, friends and concubines called ministers or whatever they call themslves cannot do anything positive for the country for even one hour. If Nigerians are not on strike, the Atuabo land is in court, Asiedu nketia, the bord chairman of bui dam says this or that, the coal plant is that and that etc. Ebei. Fools fools fools, people with no idea, brainless! Continue fooling yourselves with the excuses

This is really getting to be a bore to the point of annoyance.

When is ATUABO gas plant coming on line?
The last time we heard of was August ending. September has come and gone. We are almost halfway in October.

So my question to those in charge of the Atuabo gas plant is:

Are they for real?

Action and not words, is the name of the game.

You don't raise the hope and aspirations of a whole nation with empty promises.

I work in a similar plant in overseas and it's normally not a good idea to publicly give a tentative date for a start up of a plant when you are still in the commissioning and start up phase because a lot of things could go wrong. So you wait till all your trial runs have been successfully done before coming out pubicly to spout off about the start up date...by then, one knows for sure that all systems are a go.

And especially, in a situation where a whole nation is counting and relying on that start up date because failing to deliver is downright torture of the populace with the 'DUMSOR DUMSOR' activities breathing down everyone's neck.

TALK ONLY WHEN YOU KNOW AND YOU ARE SURE YOU CAN DELIVER.

That's how PR works in multi-million dollar construction projects.
