  You think they are there for us? The skilled personnel to man their operations will even be brought along with the machinery. We have to learn to spy on this corporations and their operations in our country. We can steal their technological know-how at least but we assume they are here to help us. Good luck.

  Low cost end to recoup your investment timely. Rates beyond peoples pockets will surely undermine your success. A lesson from the GE- Indian power fiasco

  Ghanaian officials and their political quarterbacks are like cockroaches and maggots, they will start chipping away with all sorts of dubious and corrupt schemes and designs such that by time all is said and done, the $850M would balloon to $1 billion. I can smell these stinking cockroaches and maggots frothing and salivating on the idea of becoming rich from this deal. Because they have no intrinsic value of themselves as humans, these stinking cockroaches and maggots have already plotted their 10% gratuity if not more for themselves and their political masters, all in the account of the bleeding country.
  
  Why should this be a surprise to any true Ghanaian? When John Agyekum Kufuor launched his Jubilee House project, little did we know that a price tag of a mere $30M will balloon to $150M more than 5x its original cost. Is this not the same John Agyekum Kufuor who commissioned Ghana@50 for $20M, and by the time it was all over Ghanaians were saddled with $100M? How soon we forget!
  
  We really do not know how much wealth John Agyekum Kufuor amassed in his 8 years in Office, neither do we know how much Wereko Brobbey is worth after Ghana@50. But we do know at least that John Agyekum Kufuor was broke when he took office as President, but now he has a FOUNDATION, KUFUOR FOUNDATION in his name - just like Bill and Melinda Gates' foundation. We know who is funding Bill and Melinda Gates' Foundation; but my question is: who is funding Kufuor FOUNDATION? Is Mr. John Agyekum Kufuor who was broke as a church mouse funding his own foundation as Bill and Melinda Gates are?
  
  Anytime you have an ignorant and gullible society such as ours, interspersed with inane partisan politics it is inconceivable that some wise guys are going to double up on such society, because there are ass suckers and ballyhoos in society who out of ignorance and stupidity will defend them.
