  Ghanaian meetings are too long and it is a simple fact.Tooo long.we see it everyday day yet NOTHING GOOD come out of it.
  I was a teacher before and Teachers meetings in Ghana is the longest of all meetings.
  It is disheartening especially during vacation days.the school can close as early as 10am and staff meetings alone will take u beyond 2pm making the school kids running helter sketter.
  It will start by the Secretary reading their previous minutes then followed by the headteachers long lectures.Woe unto u,if the circuit supervisor,Yaw Kyereh is there then expect the meeting to be ending at 6pm by that time most of the students are already asleep.
  Most meetins I have witnessed has duration before it starts and it is done completely within the time frame.The longest it can take is 5minutes extra.
  Kenichi has more than a point.He was really born and bred in Japan or USA,he can't stand Ghanaian meetings

  Are you sure you were a trained teacher or pupil teacher? If it is true were a qualified teacher then I think I have just discovered the reason such sub-standard graduates are being churned out of our universities. Being a teacher in ghana then relocating to the US must improve your spoken and written English and if this is the evidence of the improvement I am reading then only God knows what you were back in Ghana where you were a '' teacher before''.

  You are missing the point. We spend long time discussing irrelevant issues before arriving at the relevant ones. Swallow your insult, Kofi.

  What Mr Kenechi meant is he's got other things to do so he can't spend the whole of his time at a meeting which in most cases in Ghana,have no purpose.
  Do you know the percentage of education rate in Japan?How dare you say Kenechi is uneducated?
  Listen to common sense and try it to help you progress.

  I just attended a meeting with 24 items to discuss. The MC used just 15 mins to introduce Chairman because he wanted us to finish early because we didnt start early. So i was wondering if we had enuf tym, how many mins he would hav used. Was he counting the chairman's body parts or just his achievements?

  Ghana is a funny country.
  
  TIME IS MONEY. If the 3 hour meeting is not producing more money then it's completely useless

  What??? This is really shouldn't come from a Japanese. This guy is being rude and disrespectful considering the long and unnecessary meetings help in Japanese companies due to bureaucracy.
  
  He should learn how to talk.

PEOPLE DO NOT GO RIGHT TO THE POINT SINCE THE TRUTH MUST BE AVOIDED AND DODGED FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE, AND AT THE END OF A MEETING ANOTHER 4-HOUR MEETING IS SCHEDULED ONLY FOR ALLOWANCES TO BE COLLECTED, DRINKS SERVED AND LUNCHES FOLLOWING.
