    Nonsense. Pay the bill and stop accusing people of tapping power from your side. If you know them why not report to the police for action to be taken against them?

  • GEEDA 9 years ago

    GHANA'S FUCKING "LEADERS" ARE SO USED TO FREEBIES THAT THEY EXPECT EVEN ELECTRICITY TO BE SUPPLIED TO THEIR PARLIAMENT FOR FREE.

    WELL, THAT'S THE PRICE GHANAIANS HAVE TO PAY FOR ALLOWING "PARLIAMENTARIANS" TO ENJOY FREE HO ...
