UNQUOTE.
IS GHANA GOING TO SPEND MONEY AGAIN TO GET RUSSIANS TO CONSTRUCT NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS IN GHANA?
OMG! WHAT ABOUT THE MASSIVE EXISTING NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS AT KWABENYA CONSTRUCTED BY NKRUMAH?
ARE THEY DISUSED?
HAVE THOSE MASSIVE KWABENYA NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS BEEN DECOMMISSIONED BECAUSE OF SO MANY YEARS OF ABANDON AND UNDERUSE BY SUCCESSIVE DUMMY GOVERNMENTS OF GHANA?
OR IS THIS PROPOSAL ANOTHER CREATE LOOT AND SHARE SCHEME TO SECURE FUNDING, SHARE THE FUNDS AND ABANDON THE PROJECT TO DECAY LIKE THOSE CONSTRUCTED AT KWABENYA BY NKRUMAH?

The 126megawatt diesel engines, also conceived during the 2006/7 crisis, cost the nation US$120million.
The Osagyefo Barge, which was brought into the country in 2000, was constructed at the cost of US$120million and has, as Mr. Awotwi put it, since been “cannibalised for parts and litigated in the courts of Europe, with Ghana being forced to pay the expenses incurred by the private investor we had awarded it to, and is yet to produce its first megawatt of power fifteen years later”.

MY TAKE:
THIS IS BREATHTAKING!
THAT'S ALL I CAN SAY!
THIS SAD REVELATION HAS GOT MY HEAD SPINNING LIKE A RUSSIAN ROULETTE.
WHAT KIND OF LEADERSHIP DO WE HAVE IN GHANA?
NO WONDER THEY'VE COLLAPSED ALL OF NKRUMAH'S STRATEGIC STATE INSTITUTIONS IN A FRENZY OF FRAUDULENT DIVESTMENTS BY GHANA'S SUCCESSIVE LEADERS.
AND GHANAIAN TAXPAYERS ARE BEING ASKED TO PAY HEAVILY FOR THIS CRASS INCOMPETENCE OF GHANA'S SUCCESSIVE LEADERS.
