In every competition all sides strives to win and the one with the best strategy is always declared a winner. This does not end the game forever. Both the winner and the losers retreat , re-strategize on how to put up their best in the next tournament. This vacation period allows everyone to answer the whys and hows of their last performance and design a new strategy going forward.

The team that do not retreat and re-organise for the next tournament is bound to perform abysmally when the next game is opens.

President Professor John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills (May his soul rest perfect peace) lost an election whilst in government and everyone can attest to the peaceful nature he carried himself. He conceded defeat went to his opponent and congratulated him. He went back strategized again ,came back to compete and lost again he didn’t give up nor resulted to court action or organised demonstration nor cause people to vandalise state properties when it was very glare that he has been robbed. He however with the help of God not “antoa” but the God who made the heavens and earth reorganise himself properly to win back what he sees to be winnable.

What can we say about Francis Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo?

He was in government like Prof. when he lost in an election; he did not concede defeat neither did he willingly open up to offer congratulatory message to his opponent. He has been at war with himself and all people around him. No one knows how he strategized but he lost woefully in a bigger margin than his previous performance at his second appearance. Instead of going back to apply better strategy to appeal to the masses, what did we see him doing ?

He organised his supporters at “obra spot” to lynch and maim supporters of his opponents. He later by advice of his bad managers resorted to court action with no evidence but “PATAPA” and “PINK SHEET” alongside with his invincible forces started burning markets which he lost too. He reluctantly then conceded defeat but this time he is not going home; he will remain in the field till the next tournament. There is an “akan” proverb which says “okwasea no tow wonntsia do mprenu” meaning you don’t step on a fools testicles twice.

When discerning members of his party advise him to retreat and do proper analysis Nana Addo and his invincible forces tags them as “enemies of his progress” in broad day light his party officials were butchered in his name and has up till now has made no comment. Strangely he finds it proper to visit one of his supporters who lost his eyes in an unlawful protest and call him a patriot. What kind of human being is this?

You can only give what you have. Whoever is peaceful can offer others peace. The person who is bitter is always bitter;whenever he ceases any opportunity he will spew bitterness and cause grieve to many.
A man is known by his actions, utterances and posture. Wise up Ghanaians else your generation will suffer more than you are going through now. Begin to think and be creative. Government will only create favourable environment but it is up you to take advantage by your creations. Do not sell your conscience for bread it is sin against God and humankind. No one can better your life than you. Think of what you can do today; for tomorrow may never be yours.

SHALOM !!! PEACE !!!

You congratulate your opponent when you lose on a level playing field. We are all aware of the problems of the last elections when two different voters register figures were used for presidential and parliamentary.Where on earth can this be possible?.It is true that every government is supposed to create the atmosphere where people can work and work freely.Can that be said of this present government?. Scrambling and competing with businesses and individuals (locally) for loans is what this government has created,making it virtually impossible to start any business for lack of funds.We have seen what this administration has to offer and truly, it simply not good.

Rubbish. They should clear all the areas underneath the high tension lines. Those areas are full of squatters. They always want to collect money without showing any sign of work.

Trading in a commodity is buy and sell NOT BUY, BUY, BUY. How much did you sell THAT CAN PAY FOR OTHER BUYING? Borrowing, borrowing, buying, buying without showing the amount sold, does not give a good accountability. SO, GRIDCO should show a better accounting statement for the brainy people to trust them else they mislead the fools. Electricity metres reading is lacking. Accurate electricity bills showing electricity consumption have disappeared from Electricity Offices. Since the bland Head of State and his misfit Ministers are told these proposals, nothing stops GRIDCO to continue throwing dust into Ghanaweb for the sage to read and laugh and the fool to panic.Please go back to your drawing board, GRIDCO.

What is this mad man talking about. This is a company who wants to charge us before even start to supply us with the service.
You have have something working before you can sell. Stop raising money from the public to do your company work.
It is a shame to GRIDCO, the company who lied to Ghanaians saying they were going to supply us electric.
GRIDCO is selling Ghanaians electric to other countries and want us to invest in they company.
GRIDCO should also get a Loan like any other company and STOP calling ghanaians Stupid.
Useless Government the problem. Who gave them the contract in the first place

Ghana must work towards her minimum wage for reliefs, it is only reliefs that can bring productivity.

how many kilowatts can a normal residential house of 6bedromms consumes per month? then standard board , measure it as the basic consumtion rate . that can allow the fwsc factored it into deciding as to how much should we propose to the government as a basic salary and minimum wage. if these factors are not there , the government would always continue to make mistakes and leave the people imbalance.
looking at Ghanas economy a 6bedroom residential house should not pay exceeding amount of GH100.cedis for electricity in a month .anything above this figure , apart from been commercial house is unreasonable and unbearable

They are absolute nonsense...Ghana journalism...5 pesetas per kWh..ridiculous...send the author back to JSS

This translates into 5.31p/kWh in nominal terms, a 1.2647P adjustment over the prevailing rate of 4.0453p/kWh.
