  Don't think of only your interest but that of the country as well. If the takeover will be of more economic as well as financial benefit to the economy and country, then your demand is good, otherwise you are being selfish. It is better for government not to sign but rather find and inject more capital in the larger interest of the country even though some of you might lose your job if that will be the better of the two options.

  How could this happen, is it that the bank undertook investments that were not profitable? Were they done without the needed due diligence?

  I think these are legitimate questions.
  I think they can to the GSE to raise the money so Ghanaians become majority owners.

  Ghana is now 95% foreign owned. These Smart foreigners and Nigerians are busy owning everything in Ghana, from banks, shopping malls, cinemas, 5 star hotels, boutiques, shops, petrol stations, oil companies, airlines, construction companies etc while our sorry ass ghanain brothers are lazing about about and blaming Nigerians for their problems.
  
  Meanwhile, their doctors has been on strike in Ghana for many weeks now and dozens of sick people are dying in ghana hospitals daily including pregnant women.
  
  While Nigerians are flooding Ghana market with Made in Nigerian products, the only ghana product u see in Nigeria is apeteshi bitters??? Isnt that an insult? Why are ghanaisn too lazy? But they claim to hv good schools in ghana, so what do they teach them in schools? Do they teach you black apes how to born bastard children everywhere? Meanwhile they claim Nigerian schools are poor yet in Africa we product some of the best scientists, actors, actresses, novelists etc. Even some Nigerian school drop outs like Innoson is building cars and buses that are already plying Ghanaian roads while the so called well educated ghana men are busy making plenty babies with different women? Is this a curse or what?
  
  Look around you in Ghana 60% of all expensive flashy cars are owned by Nigerians. We own and live in the most expensive houses in Ghana, drive the most expensive cars and fuk their best and most educated girls, this is why these short ghana boys hate us with passion...
  
  Even 419 scam we introduced to Ghana is feeding millions of Ghanians directly and indirectly. Ghana boys used to drive only 1998 made Toyota cars bc they are too poor to afford expensive cars. Today Ghana boys can afford to buy range rover sports from their 419 scam proceeds. What has Ghana given to Nigeria or Africa apart from alomo bitters and their cheap proosstitutes?
  
  Everyday they claim they will chase Nigerians away but they are gutless they cant try it they are afraid it will ruin their economy. They forgot Nigerians control over 35% of Ghana economy. They forgot if they try it we will cut our gas line, they wont have cooking gas again, their electricity will become more epileptic, we will cut our satellite submarine cables so Ghanians wont have internet access to RANT ON THE INTERNET again. Then we will move all our banks, insurance companies etc and Ghana will be worst than Zimbabwe. THESE ARE FACTS...
  REMEMBER: Nigerians will never leave Ghana on trailers or lorries, NEVER. Rather, we Nigerians will return to Nigeria on our private jets, international airlines, range rover sports, hummer jeeps, Rolls Royce Phantom etc. REMEMBER, When we chased Ghanians out of Nigeria ghanaians were packed in lorries like tomatoes hahaha. YOU SHOULD GET TO THE LEVEL OF IVORY COAST AND SENEGAL FIRST BEFORE WE CAN TAKE YOU SERIOUS. A country where over 85% of the population are bastard children from bastards. I mean, I have more than 200 friends in Ghana from all regions of Ghana. Out of which, 190 have either step brother or step sister or step father or mother. What kind of country is this? A country where an average girl will make 4 children from 4 different men before the age of 25??? In Ghana bastard has no real meaning, it is the culture of ghanaians to born bastard children everywhere. In Nigeria if you born out of wedluck nobody will marry you bc you are second hand. But in Ghana if you are up to 25 and you never born 3 babies from different men you never start.
  
  Don't you realize that Nigeria is Ghanas newest colonial masters? Otherwise tell me why there are Nigerian flags in every big shop in Ghana including hotels, boutiques, restaurants, car shops and even drinking spots. All over Ghana you will see Nigerian made products everywhere including Nigerian made cement, gala, drugs, la casera, bathing soaps and cream, noddles etc. 75% of prescription drugs in Ghana carry NAFDAC numbers, I dont know why. Turn around again you will see lots of Nigerian banks, insurance companies, airlines, IT companies, hotels, churches, nite clubs etc.THE ONLY WORLD CLASS CINEMA IN GHANA IS OWNED BY A NIGERIAN, SILVERBIRD GROUP...
  
  YOU SHORT APES FROM GHANA HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO RANT ON THE INTERNET SIMPLY BECAUSE NIGERIA GAVE YOU INTERNET BACKBONE, WITHOUT NIGERIANS SAT3 SUBMARINE CABLE AND MAIN ONE CABLE GHANIANS CANNOT ACCESS THE INTERNET. This means if we shut down our submarine cables today Ghanaians will not have internet access again because every internet facility in Ghana is routed through Nigerian networks. THESE ARE FACTS...
  
  THEREFORE, WITH THE POWER BESTOWED ON ME AS THE EZE ORA NILE 1 OF UMUAFRIKA, I HEREBY UNILATERALLY, AUTHORITATIVELY AND OFFICIALLY DECLARE GHANA AS NIGERIAS NEWEST COLONY...

  It is good for Ghana and Ghanians to welcome foreign investors , including Nigerians. It is good for the economy. It is a stimulus, moreso since Ghanaians do not have the financial muscles to take up the investment opportunities. At least, the commentators here should note that the bank staff themselves want the foreign bank to buy into the weak Ghanaian bank
