Soon the NDC dogs will classify this man as NPP member,they will even say he is an Ashanti,Akyem or Akwapim.Just like how every important issue is politicized.

The President was visiting an elementary school the other day and sat in on an English class. To participate in the class, he asked for someone to give him an example of a tragedy.

A little girl named Akos held up her hand timidly and said, "If my friend was walking across the street and a car ran over her... well, that would be a tragedy!" "Well, thank you for trying," the President said. "That would be what we would call an accident, but not a tragedy. Can anybody else give me an example?"

A little boy named Kwame said, "If a bus full of kids and a truck collide and all the kids are killed that would be a tragedy." "Well, that would be what we call a great loss, but it doesn't quite make the tragic category," the President replied.

About his time little Kweku held up his hand. "Oh. Oh. I know, I know..." Kweku started. "If you and the Vice President and all the ministers were having a meeting, and there was an earthquake, and the building collapsed and killed everybody, that would be a tragedy."

"That's right!" the President exclaimed. "How did you figure that out?" "Well," said Kweku, "it wouldn't be an accident and it darn sure wouldn't be a great loss!"

IF THE LOW LEVEL OF WATER IS TO BLAME FOR THE SHUTTING DOWN TWO UNITS OF PRODUCTION LINES, WHY HAVE THE ENGINEERS AND MANAGEMENT NOT THOUGHT ABOUT DREDGING AND DESILTING THE AKOSOMO AREA TO INCRASE THE BUILD UP OF WATER? THE LAST TIME I WAS AT ADA, I WAS APPALLED TO SEE THE VAST AMOUNT OF WATER JUST EMPTYING INTO THE SEA.
PERSONALLY I THINK THE PROBLEM GOES BEYOUND THE LOW LEVE OF WATER. I BELIEVE LACK OF EARLY REPLACEMENT OF WORN OUT EQUIPMENT AND LACK OF TIMELY MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES HAVE ALSO COMPOUNED THE PROBLEMS.

A Gentleman always tries to keep his promises.With the NDC it is either they take Ghanaians for fools,that is why from the President to the DEC they keep on promising Ghana naians,on something they know,they can!t control.Or they so much disrespect themselves that they don't take themselves serious,so they view their own words as valueless .If this is the case,then we have a very big problem in Ghana with the type of leadership we have.How case such people motive us,if they view their own words as valueless?

Because he knew that Germans were coming to Ghana to help dumsor. He is not a fool to resign.

The President did employ to rehash the problems of the Power sector Ghanaians to hear. We know the problems and the efforts made so far to amaliorate them. What we want to hear from you, Mr. POWER MINISTER,are your novel and pragmatic ideas, plans and programmes to resolve crisis. Threatening us with your resignation is meaningless unless it linked up with a positive Legacy you are able to leaveus. In other words, if you are not able to put on the table any workable ideas to solve the current crisis in the immediate short term, you can resign tomorrow morning and noone will care.
Suggestions: 1.Cause a legislation through parliament under cert.of urgency, compelling all condos and similar structures _ private and public_ built between 2005 and 2014(10years, to install Solar Panels capable of producing at least 60per cent of their electricity needs. Church condos,banks. Shopping malls, private schools, etc,MUST BE INCLUDED. Imports of these items forDIRECT CONSUMPTION,must be admitted at concessionary import duty and VAT rates. All those host of levies,taxes, etc, must also be appropriately reduced.ON NO ACCOUNT MUST any direct consumer seek any further concession,evev from the Head ofState. Such imports for direct consumption by the importer must be made with SIX MONTHS of the effective date of the law. No extension must be allowed.All other commercial imports must attract the normal rates. 2,.All ongoing and future structures must have provisions for solar installations.3.Regular abd rigorous monitoring is the key to success in this project.
I believe, Mr. Minister, you also can think if other innovative ways of solving the current crisis, because the sur vival of this govt and your depend on the successful solution of this crisis.And, for Christs sake, do not threaten with your resignation, because you are not indispensable! Just think outside the box and you will be fine. BUT, DONT THINK OF CLEAN COAL, ALL COAL PLANTS IN THE US ARE BEING PHASED OUT BY OBAMA,.for your information.Besides, we will need milloins of dollars to import coal. We already have cheap Atosbo gas.God bless.
