  ##AUTHOR: SAFOA -------- There were campaign T-shirts and scarves with Lordina's portraits . Even the campaign song onaapo had Lordina mentioned in it. On voting day people went looking for Lordina on the ballot to vote for her and once she was not on it, they went back home without casting their vote. Lordina should contest the next election . Bogus campaign with bogus campaign managers

  It is such a shame the way we think and do things.It still has not registered to our leaders that our problems amount to jobs.So when we have problems with power production we spend billions of dollars to buy used power barges which cannot power half a region.What if we invested in learning to build our own dams.Of course it won't be easy or top class projects in the begining but that is true for all great endevours.Do you know how many Ghanaians will be employed if Ghanan used Ghanaian companies to build a single dam?Just think about it.Now they are making plans to invest in building affordable houses and of course they will bypass the millions of Ghanaian builders and supporting businesses to bring in foreign companies who will charge us three times as much and take the money to build their home countries.When are our leaders going to give Ghanaians a chance???

  No walmart, no footlocker, no starbucks, no restaurants, no bodyshop, no winestore...lol, why have Gh leaders neglected to develop and invest in building infrastructure in Gh u ask? So foreign donors can continue to see Gh as a poor state and continue to feed them with loans, free monies and forgivable loans. Gh leaders purposely fail to develop the country for these reasons...muahahahahaaaaaaa every regional capital must have a major city mall

  I believe Ghanaian are very much happy for the progress made by Government so far in its policy formulation. Ghana must surely work again were the words i split after reading this piece especially in relation to the words of our able President.
  
  for such gigantic edifies directed to the strengthening of the economy is a plus to the growth of Ghanaian. I therefore wish the President well in what he sojourn that God/Allah will grant him more wisdom in his quest to making Ghana work again.
  
  i personally feel downtrodden when i look on and see Ghana import some menial commodities into the system. Its quiet appalling of us and i really pry that Ghana works again. i will also fast track on the exportation of our raw materials. In all Sincerity, it is one of the numerous icebergs that seeks to wrecking mother Ghana... Mr. President Ayeekoooo..
  
  As you do well to revamp the economy, i also want to take this opportunity to congratulate you on the steps taken towards the health sector. Its is an august move and ones again, i say ayekoooooo.
  
  As your able leadership with the aid of God bring to a fruition a serene atmosphere of political and social environment, i pray thee that you should also take a step towards sustaining the environment not only through curbing problems at stake but also bringing on board new workable policies that will revive the environment; Afforestation,solving the continuous depletion of the ozone layer by both the activities of the industries and the individuals and the sad activities of sand winners. I believe that will also go a long way to help us as a country.
  
  i do not really identify with capitalism but that doesn't mean i will see white in its jurisdiction and call it black. i rally behind your dream and we all pray Ghana will work again.

  The President Nana Akufo Addo has said it and he would surely do it, since he is a man of principles,howbeit,it is easy to say than to put it in practice.1 That Kumasi would be developed to its original state as the garden city of Ghana 2.Ghana would not carry bowls to go round the International communities to beg for money to develop the country,we should therefore endeavour to work hard through our own efforts to create money to embark on projects to face lift out country which is a good 100 plus days, words of encouragement to the people of Ghana.

  Politicians seem to hold us to ransom. They come to power to loot with impunity. During the Kufour administration foreign media reported that a senior Minister had become a BILLIONAIRE through looting but no investigations were held. During the 2016 election campaign we were made to believe that Then President had accumulated billions of looted funds in Dubai banks but no action has been taken to recover the funds.
  
  We are told that there is an asset declaration mechanism in place but whether it is functioning is a matter of conjecture.
  
  Meanwhile we, the ordinary Ghanaians are suffering.
  
  What is Akuffo Addo doing about complaints of corruption.

  I think Ghanaians want to see the commissioning of very high tech industries operating 24/7 at it's maximum capacity and highest efficiency, in the processing and manufacturing of products using our raw materials to meet domestic demands, as well as feed the current and future global economy. We need to make that transition very, very, very quickly, very quickly.

  Akufo-Addo is adept at stating problems confronting the country, but bereft with solutions. He stated that imported goods have a negative impact on the economy, but fails to say how he intends to deal with that issue.

  What is the IMF business with a private mall? Again what is wrong with someone saying he is tired of begging for help? It seems to me you are full of hatred that makes you irrelevant and silly.

  IT IS A TRITE KNOWLEDGE THAT THE PREAMBLE TO GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION PROVIDES, AMONG OTHERS, "___THE PEOPLE OF GHANA WILL LIVE IN PEACE AND MAKE FRIENDS WITH ALL PEOPLES OF THE WORLD___".THAT GHANA FOREIGN POLICY AND INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS HAVE BEEN PROVIDED FOR GHANA 1992 CONSTITUTION AND GHANA BELONGS TO THE UNITED NATIONS, COMMONWEALTH, AFRICAN UNION, ECOWAS, AND SIGNATORIES TO AGREEMENTS/CONVENTIONS AND TREATIES. THEREFORE BASED UPON THE ABOVE PREMISES THAT IT BEHOOVES ON ME TO SUBMIT AS INTERNATIONAL LAWYER/LEGAL CONSULTANT, PTOFESSIONAL PUBLC ADMINISTRATOR, SOCIAL SCIENTIST THAT THE POWER OF INTER_DEPENDENCE SHOULD NOT BE RELEASED TO THE REALMS OF FORGOTEN THEORIES OF DOLDRUMS OF THE COLD. THAT A RELEVANT BIBLICAL CASE IS/WAS " THE STORY OF THE TWO FISH AND A LOAF OF BREAD OF THE SMALL CHILD THAT JESUS CHRIST USED AND FED OVER 3,000 PEOPLE WITH LEFT OVERS NUMBERING OVER 12 BASKETS FULL". THE POWER OF INTER_DEPENDENCE CANNOT BE OVER_EMPHASIZED. BENONY TONY AMEKUDZI, ESQ.
