I though we are in a new year and these people would revise their way of doing things and discard their penchant to issue vague promises. They told us they would eliminate all schools under trees before the close of 2012, one of their dishonest campaign messages for that election year; here we are in 2015 and the school under trees are even sprouting more than ever. We know they are buzzing their incompetent asses to,somehow, contain the situation but for Mahama to tell us to eliminate the dumso dumso completely is deceptive, dishonest and irresponsibility of the highest order. This is a new year and we expect these propagandists to refine their way of doing things, now that they claim to have scraped the office of propaganda from their constitution.

He promised to pull out before ejaculating to most of the women he banged. He didn't keep his promise and that is why he had several children out side his marriage.

Though the government can be commended for doing the best to provide electricity for the nation, it could be blamed for directing all its attention to one area of development - energy. There are other areas like, roads and railways which need similar and intensive attention. It's always counter-productive to put all 'your eggs in one basket'

In banishing dumsor forever in 2015, can Ghanaians be given specifics as to exactly when in 2015 it would be banished forever, so it can be monitored, evaluated, measured and assessed for the banishment? In which month, on which date, on which day in 2015 is the dumsor be banished forever in 2015, because as it is, dumsor being banished forever in 2015 is just a blanket statement without any measures for assessment and as such can be described as lacking cogency and thus, empty rhetoric.
