  This is unbelievable! How can the gov't be so gullible as to allow this all-important project suffer such fate? What people are beginning to realise about this gov't, unfortunately, is that it promises more that it accomplishes. Right now a lot of money is being spent to acquire crude oil to generate energy which, if not paid on spot, will no doubt, aggravate the debt level in the future. It is only prudent to pay much attention to the completion of the gas project to alleviate the burden on the fiscal account for the future. But, it appears anything this gov't promises to make up is backed up with action to see it through on schedule. Almost all the sectors of the economy is owed money to pay off employees, not to mention the operators of contracts. Yet, we hear all the time that everything is being done to bring this sad affair to an end. It is about time the talking stopped and action taken with immediate effect.

  I am starting to believe that things have gotten so bad that the people we have in charge of these important aspects of our economy simply don't know what they're doing - even if we fired them, another incompetent person would take over.
  
  EVERY project these people undertake is delayed. Even CDB loan is delayed...how do you even delay money you're supposed to receive

  If the Gas project is not properly handled, then Mahama can kiss goodbye to his presidency.

  We appeal to all concerned to work together to facilitate this project.
  
  This project is crucial to provision of energy in our country.
  
  We must use some of the oil money to invest in this Jubilee gas project.
  
  We cannot afford to waste time. Moreover, it will pay for itself, and has a huge potential for expansion.
  
  The Ministry of Energy should support Dr Yankey and GNGC and work with MOFEP and BoG, as well as the financial sector to provide the necessary finances.
  
  The legal framework should be laid before parliament asap so that the project is legally covered.

  President Mahama hides his inefficiencies by making childish inexusable comparisons. Mahama has this self-delusion of being a better communicator which most times gets him in trouble because he comes across in his effusions as being ill-informed and illogocal. He should stop promising better times ahead and act now.
  "President John Dramani Mahama says Ghana would soon come out of the socio-economic turbulence it is currently experiencing.
  
  He said: “developed countries such as the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Japan and Germany all went through both political and economic turbulence, but with perseverance, they have all succeeded."
  
  President Mahama said this when he joined the Star of the Sea Catholic Church to thank God for his victory in the 2012 election petition case at the Supreme Court a couple of months ago."
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Oyokoba, it seems to me like Mahama has no clue about the problems his administration is encountering and the threat his clueless administration pose to Ghanaians. He is talking about how USA, Germany, Japan and UK have gone through such problems and pull through.
  
  Sad he is comparing Ghana, still an agrainian economy, not even an industrial economy let alone a technological economies these countries are. These countries did not sit on their asses or tax their citizens to suicidal situations to get out of this mess.
  
  Ghana's situation is unique in the sense that, we got ourselves in this mess by the stupidity of the SSSS policy which consumes 75% of government revenue thus leaving the government virtually nothing to undertake developmental projects after 15 to 20% interest payment on government loans. Mahama and his kakistocracy Ndc administration needs to trim the the expenses on wages and government workers will not accept pay reduction so what option he has is to reduce government Employees from the current 500,000 strong to about 250,000. Does he has the cojones to reduce the number of government workers from the President's office all the way to eliminating some Ministries like Information, Chieftancy, Telecommunication and others?
