AUTHOR: MARTIN A.B.K. AMIDU....

It would appear that those in control of the NDC, for the time being, were bent on excluding other bona fide members of the Party who may wish to lay democratic claims to who becomes the next flag bearer of the Party by excluding them even before the mortal remains of the demised President were interred. It is also symptomatic of how political party elites in Ghana and Africa worm their way into the confidences of persons perceived as likely to ascend to power positions for purposes of eventual personal economic gain at the expense of the generality of the mass of Party members and the Nation which every President swears to serve under the Constitution

the GCPP leader should tell Mahama to release the money to their owners. pls no libilibi in this. Lartey, if you talk like this it means you can't be a good leader in our beloved Ghana.

What kind of doctorate degree does this guy hold ? Is it the kind Duncan Williams hold ? Is he another pastor ?

He is lucky he is getting his monthly salary to feed himself and his family.
Others are not so fortunate. Some workers have not been paid for 15 straight months. This monkey face of a man is saying the workers should keep working until thy kingdom come.
What a leader !!!!

WHY WILL THIS HALF BAKED GUY SHUT UP FPR ONCE. LISTEN TO HIM "NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES THE GOVERNMENT WILL PAY". GO TELL THIS TO THE MARINES. YES HE IS A HYPOCRITE AND IF I WERE HIM I WILL KEEP QUIET. HE IS IN ALL THIS TO FIND JUST CHOP MONEY. HE HAS BEEN UNEMPLOYED FOR ALL THIS TIME. DOES HE KNOW HOW PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING? THIS IS MONEY WHICH HAS BEEN DEDUCTED FROM THEIR SALARY AND IT SHOULD BE READILY AVAILABLE, THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOT HAVE TAMPERED WITH AT ALL IN THE FIRST PLACE.
WE KNOW THAT YOUR DOCTORATE IS HONORARY AND YOU NEVER DID ANY MBA PROGRAMME AS MENTIONED ON YOUR CV. YOU ONLY REGISTERED AND NEVER SHOWED UP THERE.PROVE THE WHOLE GHANA AND THE UNIVERSITY WRONG BY CHALLENGING THIS ASSERTION. WATCH THIS SPACE.

Their stomach first no one matters to them, lawless and irresponsible people have permeated into to the highest places and all they can do now is to siphon from the economy. Laziness and gluttony is their trade mark. Whoever is behind all this agitation is a thief, a murderer and a coward? If by this action you cause any persons to die then you are the wicked being ever lived on earth. Do you think you are helping to make a government unpopular? That’s a great deception. It is your future generation that you are inflicting such pains on them. Many of you who embarking on this senseless agitation will not live to enjoy this cause you are fighting for. Truly you a curse generation and your actions and inactions owns you up.

You are enjoying your current salary with no problem, Now it is the future you are thinking of now. What a bunch of useless and non entities has this society breed? People are dying because of your greediness and you care less. God heals you all from this mental slavery

Mr Lartey , is on NHS in the UK and probably about to enjoy his pension in the UK where he lived for a very long time. Besides, he inherited his father's wealth and so his future is well secured.He therefore doesn't understand and will never understand strike action by Ghanaian workers over the payment of their pension.Funny, Mr Lartey thinks the monies will be paid eventually, but he has forgotten that some of the beneficiaries have already died without enjoying the fruits of their labour and some a now living in poverty and misery.

Are you prepared to pay their pensionable entitlement from your source. A political leader should think twice when commenting on such matters. "Money na hand, back na ground", period.

He must just be truthful with the workers. Show them the money right now or tell them you have squandered the money and you are looking for a Chinese Loan to replace all that you squandered !!!
