KWAKU KWARTENG (MP).
SOURCE: myjoyonline.com---------
“The President misled everybody,” Kwaku Kwarteng said of the comments made by the president on the campaign trail in the Volta Region yesterday.

Speaking on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show Friday, Kwaku Kwarteng stated that out of the more than GH¢100billion debt burden the country is currently saddled with, the Kufuor government contributed only GHC 9.5billion after it exited power in 2008.

Picking out the NDC government’s track record on borrowing since 2009, Kwaku Kwarteng pointed out that loans approved by parliament have been mismanaged as follows:

In 2009, government borrowed GH¢3.6bn but spent GH¢2.5billion on development expenditure.

In 2010, government borrowed GH¢4.3bn but spent GH¢3.1billion on development.
In these two years, government used an average of about 25% of borrowed money on consumption.

“That was not good enough….but you probably would want to pardon the President.”
But expenditure patterns worsened after 2010, the Obuasi West MP observed.

In 2011, government contracted GH¢6billion in loans but spend only GH¢3.7billion on development. About 40% went into questionable expenses.

In 2012, out of GH¢11.5billion it borrowed, government used only GH¢4.9billion for development programmes. About 67% was wasted on consumption, Kwaku Kwarteng claimed.

In 2013, government used only 28% of the GH¢16billion it borrowed for development expenditure.

In 2014, only GH¢6billion was used for development programmes out of the GH¢27.7billion government borrowed.

“When a country borrows and consumes we are heading for trouble”. Kwaku Kwarteng argued that government borrowed monies to pay debts.

“They come to parliament, borrow money and before you know a large chunk is gone into recurrent expenditure,” the Obuasi MP said.

Ghana’s debt sustainability has been a major concern for rating agency Moody's which has rated the country’s credit-worthiness as very poor.
Moody has given Ghana a B3 negative.

The Minority has demanded that government accounts for $23 billion out of the $27 billion contracted under the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government in six years.

The NPP claims only $3.42 billion went to development projects, a testament to what it described as “unbridled thirst for borrowing” and misplaced priorities.

Ghanaians are visibly yearning for a change to liberate themselves from the corrupt nation wreckers' party which has brought untold hardship on them.

NPP party, on the other hand, has what it takes to save the nation from the sinking ship, and fully prepared to take over from the NDC con men democratically through free and fair elections.

Their water-gating tactics will not save them because Ghanaians have seen the light, and their attempt to divert their attention from the real issues confronting the nation will backfire on them

Ms Foreign Affairs Minister- where is the biometric machine you and President Mahama promised Ghanaians living in Southern Part of Africa during JDM's visit to Botswana in March this year? When a question was asked during your meeting with the Ghanaian community in Gaborone about the need to get at least one machine in South Africa to serve this region, JDM diplomatically gave you the mike to answer, and this was your response- "The government has considered the need to serve your region with a biometric machine. I can assure you the machine will be in place in S/A next month (referring to April). We are now in November, and there is no machine, and nobody is saying anything. Not even the Gh High Commission to Namibia- Haruna Atta, who was the MC at the occasion has had the courtesy to explain why his government has lied to us.
And this same woman wants to go back to parliament to continue with her lies. We're tied of empty promises- NDC government. We demand an apology and an explanation from the President and his foreign Minister.

If Rawlings daughter whose name was not even in the voter's register and a novice was able to defeat Ashitey who has been the MP for Klottey for years and even the regional minister, Hanna Tetteh should take Annan seriously. Many heavyweights were defeated in both NPP and NDC and he should be careful of complacency else she will laugh at the wrong side of her mouth in 2016.I 2016 it is not going to be a political heavyweight but a party that has programs that can carry the nation forward and NDC will fall like pack of cards in 2016. Time will soon tell.

Madam, arrogance is the most dangerous thing for a sitting democratic politician.

Where I live in Brisbane Australia, read about their last Premier - Campbell Newman. This man's government had 80% of the parliamentary seats. Arrogance creaped in and in one parliamentary term he lost the next election 52% to 48%. If you think you are invincible, let's see what your electorate think about you come election day.
