AUTHOR: SULLEY ---------If Mahama is not desperate for power why is he running adverts on TV's & Radios wasting tax payers money. Mahama is the most useless Prez Ghana has ever had. Now every gallon of patrol has ghc7 on it as tax. Anytime u buy anything from a shop, Mahama charges huge NHIS levy and 17% VAT on it. Where's the oil money? Kuffour borrowed Ghc9 million in 8 yrs. Mahama with oil money has borrowed Ghc 99 million in jux 7 yrs. Mahama said he will build 200 SHS in 4 yrs. He has now built 7.

There is no perfect government anywhere in the world. What we have in Ghana has its ups-and-downs; but evidence strongly persuades me that it is up to the task, especially in laying the foundation for the take-off that we should expect in future. No country ever makes progress without a solid infrastructural base.

Crying hoarsely all over the place and using "patapaa" to create the impression that Ghana is doomed under President Mahama won't wash with those genuinely seeing what is unfolding. And they are those hailing President Mahama all over the place. The video clips on his tour of the Western Region "to account to the people" are clearly indicative of the affection and appreciation shown by the beneficiaries of the projects so far undertaken by the government.

Ghanaians must vote for NDC because they have done a lot to transform Ghana. Between 2000 and 2008, NPP did not build a single Senior High between under Mahama within a period of 3 years about 200 Senior High Schools are being built.

This will create jobs for over 500 youth and ensure over 1,000 students are able to get access to education.

During the wedding rehearsal, the groom approached the pastor with an unusual offer.
"I'll give you $100 if you'll change the wedding vows," the groom said. "When you get to me and the part where it asks if I promise to 'love, honor and obey' and 'forsaking all others, be faithful to her forever,' I'd appreciate it if you'd just leave that part out." He passed the minister a $100 bill and walked away satisfied.
The day of the wedding arrived, and they reached the part of the ceremony where the vows are exchanged. When it came time for the groom's vows, the pastor looked him in the eye and said:
"Will you promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her every wish and command, serve her breakfast in bed each and every morning of your life, and swear eternally before God and your lovely wife that you will not ever even look at another woman, as long as you both shall live?"
The groom gulped, looked around, and replied in a meek voice, "Yes."After the wedding, the groom pulled the pastor aside and hissed, "I thought we had a deal!"
The pastor put the $100 bill into the groom's hand and whispered, "Sorry, son, she made me a much better offer."

Voltarians are very wise and have been so for years. This time some of their chiefs who are selfish and have personally gained from NPP in the past are making noises. You believe those noises to your chagrin. You wait until November 8 and find out how the voting results will be. They will vote in the same way. No change in the Volta Region, I am afraid you will be very disappointed.

Reduce tariffs and return Ghana backwards again. What Ghanaians should realize is that nothing is free. Government cannot continue to be providing free or cheap stuffs.

What is the NPPs record on power generation? Answer - they built the Bui dam which cost over $600 million , which is operating at 10% capacity. A complete waste of money. This was done at a time when it was becoming very clear that climate change has changed rainfall patterns and so the Bui dam was never going to increase power generation capacity at all. The performance of the Akosombo dam provided ample evidence yet due to INCOMPETENCE they did not pay heed. If that money was invested in solar energy, we would have been better off. So what I am saying is that the NPP do not have the solution either. They do not deserve our votes either. Bunkus.

Sometimes I wonder how politicians take Ghanaians. Not too long again, the utility service providers, organized labor and PURC haggled over increment in tariffs. An agreement was reached and same passed on to consumers. No politician nor party rose up to show how the tariffs can be reduced to benefit Ghanaians. ECG then introduces a software to help the organization collect it's tariffs but the software rather churns out tariffs that are outrageous. Consumers complain about the situation resulting in the PURC ordering ECG to put on hold the use of the software in billing. The Ministry also wants a task force audit this issue so a solution is found. Some politicians come out to say this arrangement is senseless. Rather the tariffs should be reduced without showing how this can be done. How can any serious politician talk like this? ECG as an institution has systematic problems which must be tackled head-on if the instituition is to serve Ghanaians well. These rhetorics n hollow talks by politicians will take Ghana nowhere.

The vultures are at it again. After planting their assigns to do their dirty job in ECG , they now say they would reduce taf=riffs. These are the same people who were dumping dead women in street corners in 2000 and said immediately they are elected it would stop and bingo it stopped. Why is it that Ghanaians do not see the sort of breed of people we have to contend with. They would do anything and everything to get power. Political vultures

NPP is making promises they know they can not fulfil. They want to deceive Ghanaians because they are scared by the good works done by Mahama. Some of the developments are the Shai Osudoku hospital which will serve the health needs of over 500 people in a a community.
