I think is important for the Government of Ghana should take steps to stop girl-child trafficking to Jordan and other areas in that region. If a Lebanese allegedly can do this to a Ghanaian at home then imagine the treatments these girls go through in that region.

With all these unending line of words you put out there suggests that you're trying to spin the words of the finance minister into a different direction. He made it clear that the free education program is going to begin in the fall season with the first year students and continue from there. The administration knows what they intend to achieve by these steps, and one of them is to avoid the propaganda that will be spread by you same opposition elements in terms of achievement. So they're starting it with beginners in order to ascertain the difference between The kids Who had the burden of fee paying and how that affected their studies and these ones with no burden financially, how their performance would be, because some of these children have to go and sell for their parents or to engage in some sort of activities to be able to meet their financial obligations. And these things hinders their studies in diverse ways. So the issue of a kid skipping classes with the excuse that my parents can't pay my school fees or my exams fee will be a thing of the past. Now considering the tax free spare parts you people are taking about, Some taxes cause a chain of reaction on the pricing of a commodity and put a burden on the consumers and l'm giving these literal accessment so that the reader will understand what l am trying to say without quoting any financial terms. And this explains why in some countries like Benin they have adopted to the free port system to make sure that transportation doesn't always suffer going through surging petroleum prices and other tariffs which at end of the day affects the entire pricing of every commodity in the market and the cost of living in general. One of the reasons why the NDC failed is that, they mingled economic facts and political facts together and never seemed to care about the impact on the life of the average Ghanaian. For instance the NDC was so obsessed with clinging on to power and never cared about what happens to the economy, even if destroying the business predominantly held by the opposition party's sympathizers will ruin the economy of our country was never one of their concerns. This also explains why they try to build all the four markets at the Kumasi central district simultaneously without even considered what impact the disruption of these business activities will have on the economy of the nation. This was also the reason why they failed to tackle the spare parts skyrocketing taxes issues, since the spare parts business is held predominantly by the opposition party sympathizers, in their illusionary economic principles was to crush the spare parts businesses to hamper the financing of the NPP. How can you build a nation with that formidable economic prospect on this footing?.

Ghana has come a long way with one faction for 27 ruled us out of the 60 years of Independence. They were anti-business. Do yoi remember Siaw's Tata brewery, Appiah Menka's Apino? We are very happy the business friendly party has captured power once again and our dear Ghana will benefit from it. It is not the profligate clueless batch pf thieves called 'ndc' again in power. I wonder how normal Ghanaians could vote for such a grouping which Vincent Assisseh said was not a party

Yes, 60 years of trouble and poverty but I hope we have learnt our lesson so as to 'start once ahain'

Today Ghana turns 60 like the famous saying goes a fool at 40 is a fool indeed it seems like 60 years down the road Ghana is indeed a great fool,Ghana with an abundance of natural resources and with relatively skilled personnel has nothing much to write home about; the country has been milked dry by greedy demons,devils who transform themselves into angels of light to gain political power but in dark corners conive to unleash they're true natural nature,cashing out from every place possible at the expense of speedy development,a poor nation with wealthy politicians who flaunt they're riches at the blindside of its people.Choked drains,poor roads,filty surroundings,unstable power supply and water supply,untapped natural resources,corruption at its highest peak has been the true national anthem from independence and are but a few of the numerous plagues befalling the tiny yet highly resourceful country,Today 6th March is not worth celebrating but rather a silent reminder that the black man Is indeed incapable of managing the affairs of his own brothers,instead of celebrating this day a revolution like that of the France revolution is what our leaders deserve and even much more,this will be a lesson to our leaders that enough is enough and that's the people of Ghana cannot be taking for a ride for ever.

Can you for once shut up? There's garbage all over the place but I bet that you contribute to it. Start something and serve as a good example instead of whining and pining like someone owes you an explanation!

In reality the TWI speaking people are little by little leading our nation into a pit educationally. Why should TWI drama be played on this international day that foreign guests are in attendance. Do the leaders of NPP really know and understand the essence of inviting outsiders to share our D-day with us? You are fools and educated buffoons.

Without caution the Ashantis who are practically less interested in the speaking of English and had dominated the NPP are smartly negatively sweaving Ghanaians into speaking Twi which is not our national language. Even in our national organisations outside Ghana they primitively do not want English to be spoken when they are aware that not all Ghanaians do speak TWI. This is another poor mentality shown.

This move ought to be stopped before it is late since it would affect our children's education which had shown already in the poor performance of our children's education. If we really want to have sound education for our children then it should be understood that Enlish ought to be taken serious since it is the national language used in our education. Ghanaians' foolishness never allow them to see the wrong in this direction in our national affairs especially in the education sector.

What is the essence of celebrating Ghana @60? What have we achieved as a nation? Nigeria was able to build a new capital upon all their corruption. Take a look at our capital Accra. Is nothing to compare to some of the African countries. Graphic road is full of dirt so are many places in Accra. This celebration is just for the government to steal some money

As we celebrate your retirement from the colonial masters, I see invited guests including our Methuselah His Excellency, President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe exchanging some pleasantries with our President His Excellency Nana Akufo Addo. Then l ask my self, our brothers from Zimbabwe have serious challenges more than we have in Ghana, but l know that we are not doing enough as Africans to help our brothers when they are experiencing serious economic challenges, so as we clock 60years today what is it relevance to our African brothers? Trade between us is abnormally very poor, can we help our African brothers by at least given them some assistance to alleviate their plight? if not then as our leader Dr. Nkrumah said " the freedom of our independence is meaningless unless it linked to the total liberation of the African continent" so why are we still where we are when the solution to our continent has been found many decades ago. We the present generation must rise above our personal interest and be ready to do something for our country and the continent. l want to use this occasion to challenge each of us to be the catalyst for change we all aspire to achieve for the next generation. God bless us all.

5A 5000 YEARS OLD SECRET JINNI FORMULA THAT UNLOCKS THE MYSTERIES OF WEALTH AND SUCCES “THE HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING” A SECRET FORMULA unwritten until now, Remember the KINGS and their fabulous wealth? Even today the tomb of the KINGS yields spectacular quantities of GOLD, SILVER, and DIAMONDS AND OTHER PRECIOUS STONES. How did they ever amass these incredible riches? The ANSWER is given in this strongly HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING. The wearer of this RING gets AUTOMATICALLY anything wants he in his life, for e.g. MONEY, FAME, SUCCESS, HAPPINESS, LOVE, POWER, LUCK and so on, they are all yours 17 you are wearing the HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING. If you cannot see the light from where you stand perhaps you has been standing behind a pillar all this time. The appropriate time has now come for you to knock off aside the pillar which has been obstructing your success all these days and if you cannot knock off this pillar at least move out from behind it and see what all awaits you in this universe. Through the Gracious help of great GURU (SAGE) this hidden RING is brought out with a bold assert that no man has upon this world to pass away unannounced. Nobody is to bear a perpetual burden of privation and to court death as the ultimate resort beyond also suffering. This word of happiness is equally desired to be shared by all, but here are many who ping for it and in the long run fall a victim to relentless time not even able to make both the ends meet the other flourish happily in the lap of luxury and pleasure and roll on the bed of wealth. On the hold this GREAT RING after the performance of necessary ceremonies does not fall a prey to any serious malady, his life may be extended to one hundred years, fire, water and air cannot tarnish or destroy this person. He will never in any danger of calamity. Spirits, Demons, Evil of bad Luck, Evil spirits, Black magic will submit to him and never dare do any always pass their time in safety. The nine planets always smile upon them and even KINGs bear submission. This mysterious Ring is the best filler of all desire fear, Grief’s miseries etc. cannot appreciate to the door of the wearer: A person accounted with the RING may turn the council to see his opposes turn dump and loose the power of speech. It is the desire of the great GURU (SAGE) rather my behest that every person of means should hold this great RING which is permanent in stopping premature death. It is a river of vast wealth and reputation apenerial sources of fame and prosperity and the great amulet and charm of the world. Hold this Ring and make your life Glorious and great. Highly Efficacious. Life long and Durable. The cost of this power is too great but because on the special request of the world, I am charging all the devotees only a little amount of GH¢300.84.(+233547122212)
