Am no expert on economics. I have no idea about finance, and neither do i have any clue about the factors that mitigate against productivity. One thing i can see and this is no rocket science;
With all the crippling DUMSOR.
Contaminated pipe born water.
Sporadic fuel availability.
Alarming unemployment rates.
etc etc
How could you achieve those figures.
You can deceive some pipl some times or all the time but you cant deceive us all the time. How i wish these figures were true.
The hipocracy and propaganda of these guys has apparently no limits!

Ghana's GDP per capita is less than that of Kenya and yesterday, Omane Boamah admitted his mistake. There's so much propaganda out there. First, Ghana is now an oil economy. The credit ratings of these countries we're comparing ourselves to are far higher than Ghana's. That is why the interest rates on Ghana's Euro Bonds issuance are 10% plus whilst that of Kenya and the Ivory Coast hover around 6%. That statistics is a better assessment of a country's economy. I think the NDC should be more matured today and stop their propaganda approach towards economic management. Everyone in Ghana knows that the economy today is worse than it was some years ago. We cannot even pay many of our nurses and teachers. Government cannot fulfill their statutory financial obligations like the payment of Common Funds and NHIS and our health facilities are burdened financially. The NDC should be serious for once.

It was less than $500 in the year 2001 when the NDC was in power. In 8 years, the NPP increased it by more than 150% to over $1200. In the ensuing 7-8 years since NDC took over, they have increased it by a mere 6% and omane n ...

Hmmm. Serious oooooo. I really don't understand how the country should have these indicators and still burden citizens like this. The statement failed to mention the over 117 billion Ghana cedis of debt which is over 71.4% GDP. currently even commercial bank is charging over 30% interest on loans. I went for 10000 cedis and I am paying interest of 10000. It is worse with the financial institutions who are changing over 20000 interest on 10000. Hmmm I have taken my decision

GDP grew by 5.9% between 2008 and 2015? Who is celebrating such a growth? Growth rates are usually over one year. What is the growth rate between 2014 and 2015? It could even be negative if inflation is factored in.
