DO ALL YOUR BEST TO MAKE US HAPPY
HAPPINESS CANNOT COME UNTIL THY KINGDOM COME UNDER THIS CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION.
Since the beginning of 2009 Ben Ephson has been acting as NDC propagandist and continues to do so till today. In fact it has become even worse since John Mahama became president. I think he is doing his job for which he recei ...

Hon Spio has been vindicated to some extent, with govt's agreement with labour. More needs to be done - the masses are suffering.
Disagreeing with a part doesn't mean you are not for the whole.

It's only a fool who will say Ghana belong to Akans. These people are still in the stone age.
Resign for speaking the truth? This idiot pollster is bidding for ndc, stomach fool, so Spio has to support any decision of ndc? If you have such idiots as elders in opinion leaders in a country guess what,,,failure is real
When will this hidding Ndc guy Ben Ephson who called himself Statistician stop disturbing our minds. Is he now the president ?
BEN FOOL, YOU ARE QUADRUPLE FOOL.DO YOU WANT SPOON TO LIE BECAUSE HE'S IN CABINET? IDIOT

Spio only spoke the truth, and that's honesty! Ephson is not used to honesty. It's a shame!

Your Foolish NDC president mahama does not merit respect because he is an incompetent and useless thief. Thanks
The fact that you are in a government does not mean you have to support every evil decision taken by the dead goat. Your understanding of democracy is very remote so don't comment on issues you don't have glue.
You are out of your mind. Supporter of criminal, and murderer of Late Presidents Atta Mills. God punish you and your Mahama. Fire burn you.

Ben Ephson is behaving like a kingmaker.He pretends to be neutral but clearly, he is so concerned and worried about NDC affairs.
For this time let diagram with ephod.
What the minister said is right. His comment was particularly directed at the utility services and I think he is right
You wicked man Ephson May God punish you,the truth is what we need in Ghana,Incompetent Mahama must resign,NDC criminals,God will punished you all.
He needs to change his behaviour or no one will mind him. Negotiating have reached conclusion and you are reinventing the wheel. He meant it for mischief

Is Ben Ephson an NDC communications staff now? He's all over the place.

Ghanaians hate the truth and that was why Mr Ephson want Dr Spio to resign for saying the open truth ..

Ben the decision to increase utility tariffs was made by an independent body , the PURC. not the Government . Spio is right to question why some institutions would increase these rates all of a sudden.
Spio was fuming about the institutions and not government. Was it the institutions or government that increased the utility bills? Or is Ephson mistaking the utility tariffs with the oil sector taxes recently introduced by go ...

Humility is mark of maturity and arrogance a virus that makes one eat “crow.” Ephson will eat crow soon in his arrogance.
Oh now Spio must resign now? I thought Spio-Garbrah was/is NDC messiah to save them from the rotten economy. I remember when Mahama called him to come on board to magically improve Ghana's economy.
Useless Ben Ephson.
KWASEA EPHSON !HOW COME YOU DON'T WANT THE TRUTH BE TOLD? WAIT TILL WE COME TO POWER
Ben Ephson and Kwesi Pratt, 'are you people journalists? Because you do the bidding of ndc and John Mahma. You really show your party colours. But I don't understand why people call you 'seasoned journalists and pollster'
resign for speaking his mind I don't get u.
EPHSON ,THE DEAD GOAT TOLD US THAT HE WILL FIX DUMSO, IT'S SEVEN MONTHS LEFT FOR THE VOTING TO TAKE PLACE AND YOU ASKING INNOCENT SPIO TO DO WHAT? DAMN ,ARE YOU SCARE OF A DEAD GOAD.TELL HIM TOO TO RESIGN
Ei is that Ben Epson? Mahama has done well oo
LET US ACCEPT SPIO'S EXPLANATION BECAUSE IT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE. SPIO WAS MISQUOTED BY THE REPORTER.SPIO WON'T RESIGN TODAY OR TOMORROW.
What is wrong when your political party is going wrong and you decide to put the party at the right path.
Mr Ben E. I think that u ar grown to take mature decisions. U can advice ur boss to sack him. In NDC, everybody voice/views ar taken. Stop planting evil. Stomak plstar
