I told you guys! This president is useless. There is nothing he can do to get Ghana out of the problems they have put her in. With the value of our currency, the cedi, still falling, the useless young man is saying Ghanaians, not him, are foolish. Ghanaians are foolish because they can't tell if they are suffering or not, somebody from outside will have to speak for them.
So Ghanaians, you don't have any problem. Your pipes are flowing with water constantly, power supply is constant, you live in a corrupt free country, your currency, the cedi is doing wonderful, fuel price is very affordable, your hospitals are fantastic; even Atta Mills patronized them till he died, your cities are squeaky clean; garbage on the streets is a thing of the past, misappropriation of state funds is just fine, don't complain. I mean, you are just doing fine, if you complain again, we will scorn you, especially, if you are someone with a disability. Just shut-up and listen to outsiders, because they pay for the food you eat, the petrol you buy and bear your pain when you are sick and you are asked to go home because hospitals don't have beds to admit you. THIS IS THE IMPLICATION OF THE STATEMENT MADE BY THE MAN WHO IS SPEARHEADING 'better Ghana Agenda' If this is what it is, WHY DON'T YOU VOTE HIM AND HIS USELESS FRIENDS OUT IN 2016?

THE USELESS NDC IS TURNING ONE TRIBE AGAINST ANOTHER
TURNING ONE RELIGION AGAINST ANOTHER
THERE WAS EVEN AN ATTEMPT BY ATTA MILLS TO poison football clubs with politics just for the SELFISH INTEREST of the USELESS NDC PARTY.
Everything that units us as a peaceful nation is under attack by the USELESS NDC PARTY. Before they divide Ghana and leave us in shreds VOTE THE USELESS NDC PARTY OUT IN 2016.
We have lived peacefully without any TRIBAL OR RELIGIOUS POLITICS before the USELESS NDC PARTY WAS FORMED and their manifesto signed with blood. We don't need any division in Ghana. WE ARE INTER-MARRIED, AND WE ARE ONE PEOPLE. NDC IS DANGEROUS, VOTE THEM OUT IN 2016.

The question is why was it sold at all ? I am sure the managers of these companies were doing their best to maintain the profitability of the company for mother Ghana.

At times I wonder if the sin of stupidity has become Ghana. Come to think about this: for short term cash, we sold our assets at below market value to buyers who are politically-connected to the most powerful. Instead of collecting the money, we did not, and then turned to external donors for financial assistance at a rather higher interest rates. Are our leaders so foolish?

Where are the gallant men in our society to put this free-fall nonsense to rest?

VERY SAD AN PATHETIC FOR THE VULNERABLE IN THE COUNTRY TO WATCH AND SEE HOW OFFICIALS APPOINTED TO POSITIONS MISMANAGE THE RESOURCES OF THE NATION FOR THEIR ON PRIVATE LIFESTYLES.

SHOULD A NATION BE BUILT ON SUCH CRIMINAL PRACTICES,MANIPULATION, CHEATING AND STEALING.

WE STILL HAVE MANY DUSTÝ AND ROCKY ROADS BEFORE THE NATION.

YET, THESE CROOKS, THIEVES AND ROGUES HAVE STILL NOT BEEN PROSECUTED IN THE COUNTRY.

THIS CLEARLY INDICATES WHY THE NATION CONTINUES TO BEG FOR CREDITS,LOANS, AID,GRANTS AND BAILOUT FROM THE IMF AND WORLD WORLD.

HOW CAN THE NATION SURVIVE.
