Go and see how Prez Mahama of Ghana has transformed Gonjaland with Ghana money just within the two and half years that he has been in power. Every town, village and hamlet in Gonjaland has received a facelift with new facilities such as roads, toilet facilities, markets, mosques, good quality water projects, electricity extension projects, etc. The question is did J. J. Rawlings do the same thing to Voltarians when he was in power for twenty years? What about Atta Mills. The good old Prof was in power for three and a half years yet he was not selfish to only concentrate on his people in Ekumfi Etuam and the central Region but rather his whole thought was for the general good. No wonder under the care of Prez Mills, Ghana achieved a growth rate of 11%, single digit inflation and the smooth implementation of the Single Spine Pay Policy where newly recruited police personnel received the nominal equivalence of 500dollars as monthly salary. Compare these achievements to the nepotism and selfish policies of the Mahama government that has crippled the Ghanaian economy. I really weep for Ewes and Fantis whose votes brought Mahama to power and yet are the hardest hit by the current hardship prevailing in the country.

AUTHOR: MAHMOUD------
You are repeating exactly what Rawlings and his "let the blood flow" misguided, inexperienced youth of this country said years ago. They claimed that our older leaders had failed and they took over the country in the 80s and mismanaged it for 20years. The result was a Cuban-style communist dictatorship, economic mismanagement, Rawlings' Chain" and abject poverty.

Those revolutionary youth who were wearing tire sandals and condemned market women to death for petty profiteering, are now billionaires enjoying power and money fraudulently. Throughout the period when Ghana was called "ojah krom", they perpetuated their rule through the gun and electoral malpractices. Unfortunately, they are the ones overseeing the sinking of this country today and they will do everything in their power to rig the elections and continue their mediocre rule, despite the fact that Ghanaians want them out.

Believe me; suggesting that the "youth" should take over the running of this country again will not fly.

What caused the Ghana Cedis to fall ? Our import is more than export and we re chasing the US Dollars to import goods from foreign countries.

The 15% is realistic considering the fall of our own currency, the Ghana cedi. Don't forget the spare parts these vehicles use.

No there is an evil hand behind all these demonstration of will and causing pain and harm to Joe Public, all for political gain.
Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo is behind all these. Who own most transport businesses other than NPP past Ministers.
Perhaps some group should demonstrate agains these fare increases as well.

Propaganda figures are being thrown around by the NDC govt and BOG all the time.eg the cedi's depreciation from January to date is well over 50% but wait for official figures to come out and see what else would come out. Our currency is truly the worst performing one in the whole world. Totally useless govt in place.
