Our taps are dry.

Volta River is flowing freely into the Atlantic Ocean and we are giving our resources to the Chinese!! Politicians don't care.

Don't let any Chinese step foot in my hometown. We will lynch them. Foolish fools. You have a lot of Ghanaian Engineers sitting at home doing nothing, yet nothing tricks your brain to think that you can form a coalition of Ghanaian Engineers to engage in this agenda. You have to bring in the greedy Chinese. Mmoaaa!!!!

Our governments keep selling us to foreigners. Millions of University graduates and we still can't do nothing for ourselves. Shame

Buggers, you went out seeking the Chinese to help with your borrow and build chronic non thinking habit by past and present governments of this country.

So the 24H-Economy Secretariat achievement is to sell out Ghana's vital corridors to the Chinese? What are we good for.

I am scared of any contract with the Chinese. Parliament needs to vett it first before someone sells out to the Chinese.

Why can’t we develop our own? Idiocy and incompetence on full display by African politicians. We have no regard for current or next generation.
What a bunch of jokers in both NDC/NPP? Thieves!!!!! Even God does not understand black people.
When are we going to be serious as a people for the common good to ourselves?

There are competent Ghanaian professionals who can perform and deliver this project while creating jobs for the youth. Yet these myopic thinking politicians (greedy thieves) sold us out again. I can’t think far…..

There may be research studies on the Volta Development Basin on shelves at the University of Ghana and KNUST, but the minister doesn't trust them or know their existence. Kwame Nkrumah, had a great vision of developing the Volta Basin as part of the Seven-year Plan which included the Volta River Authority, where the bauxite of the country is processed into aluminum and exported. Perhaps, he's not interested in this project that can be updated and used or he's interested in going to China, get some per diem which is not available if Ghanaian technocrats are used. Thank you.
