Mahama we have pointed long ago is a curse upon this nation of ours , all we will see as his legacy is the incompetence , deliberate sabotage of anything worthy or valuable including virtues , lack of morals or conscience and amateurism. Crime emanating and encouraged out of the highest office of the land . Callousness in character , criminal in thought ,Godless in action, and no true fear or respect for the children of God and anything HE created.We must work diligently to remove this menace from the so we hope al righteous people see this and encourage all worthy political parties , trade unions , market women , drivers ,soldiers and police, lawyers and judiciary, intellectuals , teachers and lecturers , Akans and other righteous law abiding peace loving tribes, pastors and priests, the ordinary man and even the tobacco or wee smokers to do everything possible to stop this pestilence laden , bad luck govt. If necessary we should prepare for even war now so we give our future generations a better chance for a happy future .

IF NDC IS ADMITTING FAILURE LEFT AND RIGHT WHY RETAIN THEM IN 2016?

Incumbent Chairman of the governing party Dr Kwabena Adjei has told starr news in an interview that he is being blamed by members of the National Democratic Congress, for the failures of the current Government.

“Everything the Government has done and has not done well from the energy crisis to lack of funds for GETfund scholarship to school feeding programme to poor road network to lack of potable water in certain places, all are government responsibilities, I’m not the person to be blamed, but when I go out they blame me, as if I was the minister of water resources works and housing, minister of roads, minister of energy, minister of this, they put it on me,” the two-time Chairman who is running for a third consecutive term told Ibrahim Alhassan.

NOW THE BABY WITH SHARP TEETH, AYARIGA HAS ALSO ADMITTED FAILURE.

"According to the former Sports Minister, several government institutions tasked to ensure that Ghana is managed effectively have all failed.

“There is an institution failure across board...from Metropolitan and District Assemblies to Town & Country Planning Department to Fire Service Department to EPA to Ministerial levels. We’ve all slept on the job,”

SO NOW GHANA, VOTE MAHAMA AND HIS USELESS NDC PARTY OUT IN 2016.

I'm sure this is not what the people of La Dadekotopon want their member of parliament to be. For most of them, I believe they feel ashamed to identify him as their MP, and rightly so, because they have seen better days before. Your mouthpiece in parliament says a lot about you, and they can no longer bear this shame. Very good and respectable member of parliament from La like the late HONOURABLE PETER ALA ADJETEY WILL BE MISSED. People of La Dadekotopon, redeem your good name by VOTING OUT THIS MISCREANT CALLED AMASA NAMOALE, and send a very decent person who represents and yearns to meet your goals and aspirations. YOU DON'T DESERVE TO LIVE WITH THIS DISGRACE PEOPLE OF LA DADEKOTOPON. VOTE AMASA NAMOALE OUT IN 2016.

True. 3 culprits here - the government, the media and the citizens. These are all checks and balances. A government that is not held accountable by the media and its citizens will always resort to pet projects. The funding for the Conti project has been delayed for years - how many media outlets and citizens marched on the government before the rains started. I bet we will give this to God. God gave us brains - its (the mind) a terrible thing to waste!!

Bishop Herward Mills, has undergone minor surgery on his right Knee and is unlikely to Chase virgin women on the streets since there are none in church.
On the bright side doctors say the procedure should not hamper his ability to fuck at will at Gas Station and in fires for miracles.

This is one of the most vapid statements Kwesi Pratt has ever made.

You don't need to site petrol stations under water so that they cannot burst into flames and kill people. But neither do you site them in residential or shopping areas. Why? BECAUSE ACCIDENTS CAN HAPPEN, Mr Managing Editor!

Where accidents CAN happen, they will one day ACTUALLY HAPPEN. And at the worst possible time. Maybe you haven't heard of Peter's Law?

That is what PREVENTIVE MEASURES are about. You take measures that prevent accidents from happening. If you extol views like this, and yet you are supposed to be a leader of thought, where is the society heading? Noisy people with no common sense.

“The problem with us is not that a filling station is located close to a community, our problem has more to do with safety measures and the lack of enforcement of these safety measures,”
This is all I wanted to hear, because it say it all. Kwesi Pratt this is not just knowledge but the kind of wisdom this government lacks. I just don't know what this government is up to. Could that be the report from the U.S fire investigators whose reports we haven't laid hands on. Mahama government really lacks the right resources to put Ghana on course.

It.s true that authorities in Ghana do not pay attention to important issues until problems arise. For instance why should drinks like liquor or akpetershie be allow to sell at lorry parks whilst authorities look unconcern. How do we guarantee the safetyness of our citizen in such a case.
