Don't tell Ghanaians that you are now realising that; it was deliberate. You, as the finance minister, could not control the reckless and useless expenditures e.g. the rebranding of metro buses. How I wish Ghanaians will vote you and your gov't out in December. It will be the greatest gift Ghanaians can give to themselves for the X' mas.

Don't be ridiculously apologetic. When did you realise you have overburdened the poor Ghanaian? Ghanaians should note that they shall pay heavier taxes if they wrongly vote for mahama,. The euro bond this government is feverishly looking for is a recipe for higher taxes in 2017.

I have always intimated that Temper will be Mahama's nemesis. If NDC losses the elections, it will be because of Tekper. He does't even respect the decisions of the Economic Management Team and Mahama looks own sheepishly.

BY FINANCE MINISTER'S OWN ADMISSION, THE NDC IS NOT A PROACTIVE GOVERNMENT SO THE CHARGE THAT THEY ARE INCOMPETENT IS SADLY TRUE.

THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR POLICIES BEFORE REALIZING ITS NEGATIVES. THIS MEANS THAT THEIR POLICIES ARE NOT WELL- THOUGHT OUT.

THEIR RUSH TO GET THEIR DIRTY HANDS ON MONEY MAKE THEM APPLY HALF-BAKED POLICIES WHICH IN THE END THE ORDINARY GHANAIAN SUFFERS THE ULTIMATE FATE OF THEIR ILL- THOUGHT OUT DECISIONS.

OH WHAT A WASTE.

GHANA GOVERNMEMNT AIRPORT AND TELECOM CHARGES ARE JUST TOO MUCH.
HOW CAN WE HAVE MORE TOURISTS VISITING GHANA IF THE TAX ON FOREIGN PLANES LANDING AT THE KOTOKA AIRPORT IS TOO HIGH HOW CAN WE PROMOTE TOURISM. BECAUSE OF THIS THE TICKET IS HIGH WE HAVE TO PAY THE HIGH PRICE. GOING TO AMERICA WHICH IS 8 HOURS IS CHEAPER THAN GOING TO GHANA WHICH IS 6 HOURS.
ALSO CALLING FROM ABROAD ESPECIALLY FROM ENGLAND TO GHANA TOO MUCH TAX THAT IT IS NOT CHEAP FOR GHANAIANS CALLING THEIR FAMILIES. EVEN CALLING INDIA, AMERICA,AUSTRALIA AND OTHERS IS 2P PER MINUTE, CALLING GHANA IS 10P PER MINUTES TOO MUCH.

THE GHANA GOVERNMENT OUGHT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS HOPE AKUFFO ADDO WILL LISTEN AND CHANGE THINGS FOR GOOD.
