    Don't call them so. I'm a programmer and I've found paper a much more serious medium for taking decisions. The UK mps were given tablets not for parliament but for monitoring their constituencies.

  • Tornyevi 8 years ago

    Are the keys and instructions written in Chinese? I don't think these tablets are of inferior quality. My Samsung tab is made in China but is original. The heading is bad. Do we have made in Ghana tab?

  • T'pau 8 years ago

    The chamber must regulate the distribution of critical and sensitive information in softcopies to these MPs, as they could ignorantly and perhaps inadvertently abuse the privilege.

    Our leaders dont think. Dont they know the Chinese can install a device in the tablet to steal informations from them. Big bodies with no head. Contact kantanka.

    A bunch of illiterate idiots. Even my 5-year old uses three different types of tablets. And we install the tablets before we even give them computer literacy classes? Was this installation just a contract for Ibrahim Mahama?
