Dr Bawumia is the next President of the Republic.
they are corrupt people and lazy the govt should suck them all and re-hire other qualified workers to replace them
and all Ghana with you all passport office workers should lose their jobs and be replaced by real hard working folks
If a Government wants to work it will. There were many things the past NDC government could do but... How much does it cost by visiting sensitive institutions unannounced but the impact is great? You are the next president. H ...

What is the Deputy Vice doing that President Mills did not do?
Are you looking for business opportunity that will change your life for good?
This Bawumina is too useless the low
I .Q Akyem mafia have dumb him and he is now inspecting department what

Kofi or what ever your name is. Why cant u learn to apreciate something for just a moment. What the vice president is doing now is awesome. Just show some like if u cant then say nothing. Please.
Why waste your valuable time on this miscreant. Nana's win go pain am till he quenches. Tweea!!!
Kofi, it's either you have no brains or you are simply jealous, or both.
You idiot jealous about what? Useless, and hopeless Bawumina with his smelling prostitute Fulani woman they were use by the dead old Ugly dwarf and his gangsters
I am not sure which party you belong, but let us work together and build Ghana.
Mr vip, tour well,because if you fail, you will go dead in Ghana like ???? nobody.
KUDOS
Filthy offices filthy compound
He reminds me of the years when Rawlings was able to inspire the nation .This is truely an inspiring and dynamic leader.NDC BEWARE!We are not going to allow you to tear him down.
Hossana, Hossana today. Crucify him, Crucify him tomorrow. By the manner Ghanaians insult Rawlings, I'm surprised someone had somethings good to say about him. Now Bawumia is being likened to Rawlings until the shout 'Crucif ...

I wish you whatever you wish yourself!
Zoobie Aponkye, get a life.
it's true my friend ... any fool can tour. .. the cedi he preached about whilst in opposition is depreciating with speed.. He should talk again... u think governance is talk talk?
you are the man.Ghanaians love you
Too much corruption in getting a Ghanaian passport these days.
Visiting is one step,
Action to enable poor Ghanaian get their passport in time without paying bribes and also removing middle men is key
empty textbook guy
At first you said NPP dropped the other candidate because he was a Northerner then they replaced him with Bawumia.You said he was jsut a token Northerner and it turned out he was an indispensible part of the leadership.You sa ...

The most corrupted institutions in Ghana behind the police force are the DVLA, and the passport office.
show off
DOCTOR, WE LOVE YOUR SHOW OFF.GOD BLESS YOU.THIS IS HOW THINGS GET DONE.
I believe the show off will put other institutions alert and work well is far better than a vice who sit in the office and sleep
You need your head examined.
Don't forget Ports and Harbours Authority
IS THAT YOUR JOB DESCRIPTION? OR YOU HAVE NOTHING TO DO AS VICE PRESIDENT?
empty competence, textbook style...awful
grade textbook economit
Kwssia, you see you can't even write economist and you are insulting. Cheap boy.....hahaaaaa go back to school
total competence and ready to work. that is the app government . they are truly willing to change ghana for the better
just by showing up...sad
THAT IS HOW IS DONE IN THE DEVELOP COUNTRIES.DOCTOR KEEP SHOWING UP.
You cannot keep showing up . As soon as you leave they start laughing at you. Create more passport offices all around the country and all the confusion stops. This is not competence. It is a useless waste of time. We had al ...

MONTHS MONITORING SHOWMANSHIP BUT RATHER CONTINUING CHECK EVERYWHERE. THANK YOU FOR THE GOOD WORK, WE LOVE YOU
First class governance must start from this office. Another place to visit is DVLA office and instill a form of flow chart as to what to happen if anyone need a driving licence and not whom you know bases
5 DAYS BUT NDC IS MAKING IT TO LOOK LIKE HE IS IN POWER FOR 8 SOLID YEARS LIKE INCOMPETENT THIEF MAHAMA. THANK YOU MR. PRESIDENT AND VICE-PRESIDENT DR. BAWUMIA, GOD BLESS YOU ALL

good leadership
Clueless VP with no spine to sit down n reverse the currency.
Oh Osafo Marfo is the de facto VP
Sorry you are no more getting free T-shirts and money for kenkey and kyenam thus you are crazy, your brain is not functionin. Thank God basic education is going to be free, go to school.
Government should privatize passport office. This will be free of corruption. The staff of foreign affairs has made passport office their gold mine where even cleaners there engage in passport corruption.
I would have love it if he had gone there disguised as an ordinary applicant. That is the only way he can get the real picture on the ground. All the same, I hope this visit brings out something positive.
This will never bring any change in the work line of them. tell us that after your visit henceforth ghanaian can obtain their passports within a month. else your visit is just a show off.
MY PRAYER IS FOR THESE VP VISITS TO YIELD POSITIVE RESULTS. THERE IS CORRUPTION IN EVERY INSTITUTION IN GHANA AND IT IS SHAMEFUL.
Dr. Mills stormed the Ports! Anyone remembers that? Hahahahaa, Ghanaians are funny but always hopeful when a leader "storms".
vp need to give them time to give passports pls
He should sit down and arrest free fall of the cedi and Concentrate on how to restore in full the allowances of the training colleges and nursing training and payments of all contractors within the hundred days he promised th ...

as if any good can come out of this he is just there to make sure corruption thrives within the NPP takeover. corruption in the passport office will flourish from one corrupt government to another
If u like come to tails n details n nobody cares mr .....?
NPP Team is working. Thank God for Nana and Bawumia. Ghana is moving forward.
He is there to make sure the drugs dealer's who have been given money's to the terrorist
Npp party to get their passports to carried on with their business in Europe
What's the purpose and does a whole VP get paid for such unnecessary and time-wasting cheap pub?
Which developed country please?
This guy Bawumia doesn't has anything doing at the office since Osafo Manfo is doing his job so he is just going round advertising himself.Oh what a pity a vice president without portfolio.He should visit all the toilets and ...

?ecentralisation of the institution is long overdue. This will create jobs for citizens and eradicate bribery. Every Ghanaian is legally entitled to a travel document. So every region must have a branch. Period
Vise president Bawumia is the man to watch. he really doing a good job for mother Ghana kudos!!!
SO HOW MANY SENSIBLE PEOPLE ARE IN NPP. THESE FOOLS ALWAYS PRAISE KAPOWEPOWE AND THIS IDIOT BAWUMIA. DOES IT MEAN THAT HE HAS NO TRUST IN THE MINISTER INCHARGE?
Ghana is mess because of people u.
The vice president is engaging in theatrics with these unannounced visits of his. He is not going to solve the passport office's systemic problems by just showing up and speaking with the staff. He knows what the problems fac ...

Nothing will change. Money talks and loudly at Passport Office. Dr. Bawumia can't do anything about it. Actually the entire civil service is incurably corrupt and that is the way it had always been.
i have no doubt that this visit will change the face of passport acquisition in Ghana
Did the visit bring the desired changes Ghanaians are hoping for or was it just another wasteful show-manship to declare his status as the Vice President of Ghana? According to his rhetorical campaign message he was coming as ...

corruption is killing and whom you know is killing our country.
THE GOV'T SHOULD PLEASE LOOK INTO THE PASSPORT DURATION WHICH WAS REDUCED TO 4 YEARS DURING NDC TO THE NORMAL 8 YEARS.
THE VICE PRESIDENT SHOULD COME AND TAKE OVER THE WORK. HE THINKS HE IS THE ONLY RIGHTFUL PERSON IN GHANA. THEY SHOULD CLEAN THEIR BOTTOMS WELL BEFORE LOOKING INTO OTHERS.
I think is wrong for the public to go to the Passport processing office to wait for their passports. Things are not right. The agency must implement policies that ensures that it conforms to the law of the land. id there is a ...
