US vrs UK? United State government wants NDC to remain in power for so many reasons. They have already bought our President and NDC.
UK government in other hand wants NPP and Nana to be in power so they can colonize us again.
Each of these countries has donated 4 Million US Dollars and 4 Million British Pounds.
Each of these countries has their men already working hard to win
Each of these countries are indirectly making political campaign for their favorite.
At the end it is the ordinary citizen of Ghana who will loose or gain.
Vote wisely
Vote for your party

Its is obvious some Ghanaians we needs to be educated. Ghana seeking aid from the Western Countries doesnt be we a slave to them; but the fact is that even if Ghana borrow from these countries, the government uses these fund to develop the country not for its family but for all. so why make the assistance of the USA a topic of politics. Actually they are helping Ghana and we form Ghana and not the NDC.

Aliko Dangote is constructing a state of the art 1000 bed capacity hospital in Kano for $12.38million Dollars and yet the cost for the 420 bed Ridge Hospital expansion cost Ghana some $250 million. This $250 million could have built us 20 more 1000 bed capacity Hospitals, which is two 1000 bed capacity hospitals in each region. You can choose to vote for Mahama if you so wish. As for me, I can see through his lies and deceit. Through his incompetence and sheer thievery! Arise for change

$4.5m to manipulate the process in Ghana?. Watch out, it's the compensation for the Gitmo 2 to shut Ghanaians up and continue the bullying.

We cant overthrown Mahama just as our fore-father did to Dr Nkrumah. We are in a new age now and a new era where democracy is vibrant. IF we were to choose between Nana Addo and Mahama; about 8 regions will vote for President Mahama because they are looking at how the projects he commissioned will benefit them and their family. That is the same way Ghanaian must think

The aid from USA will be determined by the EC and its members and not the government even though some will be used for nation building

Mr. Tee , your language is very unacceptable. It is extremely tribalistic, rude, crude and unnecessarily personal. You may disagree with his politics, but remember that he is the President of Ghana.
Decency, please

It's good the US government knows which areas to help and I'm glad they didn't mention change of logo,voter education is more important that's what we call prudent spending,let this remind those in charge of the EC behave like responsible people,if the EC was their private company that has operated over all this years,will they consider changing a logo and all the expenses that come with it when someone has to fund them?,when someone is washing your back,you should also wash you front,that's wisdom.The EC with this cash at hand now has no excuse to fail,I advise that,the right people should get involve in the electoral process and make sure they do the right thing and not put the lives of innocent Ghanaians at risk,Ghana is our only country those who ve second home should not be the ones to take decisions for us,clearly some people can not work without supervision and the EC boss happen to be one,she has so far demonstrated it,commitee here commitee there,I'm for this and the next thing we hear is change of logo depicting a pizza joint,where did we go wrong?those who ve masters degree in everything turns out to be the most useless when it comes to common sense.So America get involve,we don't need aid or troops after the election all we need is smooth transitional change,the will of the people must not be subverted,if you re sure of performance then creat a level playing field for the voters to decide,that's all we asking for.

Ghana does not need AmErica's money for the elections.Such paltry donations give them the chance to interfere in the nation's political process. If America knows how to promote and support elections it better gives financial assitance to support the removal of the dictatorial regimes it supports all over the world,especially in the Middle East.Ghana does not need such a trojan financial assistance.

On constitutional issues we can trust US diplomats as far as we could drop-kick them. Mahony, was a perfect example.

Dr. Nduom is highly opposed to the idea of the US supporting Ghana's election with $4.5 million, saying that this is a waste of American tax payers' money. When Akua Donkor was told about Dr. Nduom's stance, she stated that Dr. Nduom is a big hypocrite and is angry because the funds will not be deposited in his bank. Not long after this, Akua Donkor was seen driving away from the American Embassy, her Totoya Tundra filled with $4.5 million.
