We are under economic shackles all because of NDC incompetent and corrupt government. We had eight years of NPP government and times were certainly better for us than we have found ourselves in under the seven years of GYEEDA,SUBAH,SADA,NSS and least of all Woyome stealling from us a whopping fifty one million.
The NDC and its head corruptible Mahama must give way to the NPP.
At least if I am poor but the sacrifice is giving all children in Ghana some free education then my sacrifice is worth it.
We have nothing to call home and tell mama about in the sad state of Ghana economy. Give us a break Mr.Mahama and your incompetent NDC.

What people like you don't know is that times have changed. The Akosombo dam built by Nkrumah is now generating half of its capacity because of low water level in the dam. Is this the fault of any human incompetence or corruption. May be you will call God incompetent by giving Ghana little rain? Moreover 8 years of NPP rule all they did was to spent several millions of dollars to construct the Bui dam when it was clear that rainfall pattern has changed . They did not learn from Akosombo experience. Bui dam is contributing very little power to the national grid. If that money was invested in solar energy we would be better off.
The cost of generating thermal power is high and so we must pay more. CPP's call for non payment is irresponsible and does not solve anything . If people don't pay the generating plants will shut down and total darkness will ensue. Is this what you want? The ECG owes govt more than the govt owes it. It is time govt publishes the figures for all to see.

IF GHANAIANS DO NOT CONSUME OR FIND ALTERNATIVES TO ELECTEICITY (PRIVATE SOLAR PANELS) AND WATER (DUG WELL WATER PUMPED MANUALLY) THIS PURC, ETC EXPLOITATION CRAZE BY GOVERNMENT WOULD STOP.

WHEN THE GILF ARABS AND OPEC CREATED THE CONDITIONS FOR HIGH FUEL PRICES GLOBALLY, THE AMERICANS CAME UP WITH ALTERNATIVES, IE, MASSIVE HYDRAULIC FRACKING FOR HYROCARNONS AND ELECTRIC CARS, ETC.

TODAY, THE AMERICANS HAVE FORCED DOWN FUEL PRICES DRASTICALLY, USING THEIR WISDOM AND HRAD WORK.

SAME CANNOT BE SAID OF LAZY SHALLOW-TJINKING GHANAIANS.

How much does cost to treat and sell one litre of portable water in Ghana , compared to the average in US, UK and Germany and France? How much does it cost to produce and sell a kilowatt of electricity in these same countries, compared to Ghana. We live in a world where we compared prices before we shop and buy things. The prices for water and electricity are too high in Ghana. Its the result of poor negotiations with these foreign and local companies. Thing have to change quickly. The prices must come down!!!

It is not the NDC government of Mahama which is running the economy of Ghana.It is the IMF which is controlling the economy on behalf America and its neo-liberal economic western partners.The liberalization of the economy,astronomical increases in utility tariffs,privitization of state assets are all being done at the behest of the IMF.Ghanaians have not seen anything yet.The worst is yet to come.

But the ECG owes government more than what the govt owes. What govt should do is publish what it is owed by the ECG for all to see then strike a net balance that is due it.
