DR BAWUMIA: _____-----International rating agency Moody’s has not upgraded Ghana’s sovereign credit rating contrary to assertions by the Mahama administration to that effect, the vice-presidential nominee of the main opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has said. Speaking at the launch of the NPP’s 2016 manifesto at the International Trade Fair Centre in Accra on Sunday, 9 October, Dr Bawumia said Ghana’s sovereign credit rating got downgraded to (B-) under President Mahama despite having oil revenue at its disposal, from (B ) positive (without oil under the NPP). Moody's Investors Service recently affirmed the Government of Ghana's issuer and senior unsecured rating at B3 and changed the outlook to stable from negative. Dr Bawumia, however, noted that nothing had changed except the revised outlook. He said, in fact, international rating agencies like Moody’s, Fitch and Standard & Poor’s now have basically the same credit rating for Ghana. “The recent revision of Ghana’s outlook from B- negative to B- stable; that is the equivalent of B3” with the revision of the outlook from negative to stable, “has resulted in a misinterpretation by this NDC government and President Mahama that Ghana’s credit rating has been upgraded.” “This is in fact not the case. Moody’s did not upgrade Ghana. Ghana’s rating under Moody’s is still B-. It is only the outlook that has been revised and that is not equivalent to a change in rating or a rating upgrade. “Sometimes one wonders whether they don’t read or they don’t understand. So, let me give Mr President a free piece of advice: ‘Mr President, please desist from embarrassing yourself by stating that Moody’s has upgraded Ghana.’ Your economic management team should explain that difference to you. “The Mo Ibrahim 2016 report on governance shows that on virtually all key development indicators such as safety, rule of law, human rights, economic opportunities, infrastructure, business environment, human development, health and public management, Ghana is worse off today than it was 10 years ago,” Dr Bawumia said.

AUTHOR : EBBY ------- THE LORD WILL HEAR OUR CRIES ON DEC. 7TH---- It's only the deaf, dumb and cruel foreigners masquerading as Ghanaians that fail to see the unprecedented hardships the citizens of this country are going through. You have eyes but you can't see. You have ears but you can't hear the cries of the nation. All because you benefit from the government robbery and corruption that have decimated every fabric of the country. The Lord will definitely hear the cries of His people and deliver us from criminals like you and your devilish National Demonic council of gangsters

Let's please avoid blaming foreigners, neither NDC nor NPP is a party of foreigners, these are both Ghanaian parties and foreigners have no bias towards any of them.

A magician looking for a new trick went to a newly opened magic shop. The clerk handed him an ordinary-looking pair of glasses and said, "Only $1,000."
The magician was shocked. "A thousand bucks for a pair of glasses?"
"Try 'em on; they're special glasses."
He tried them on and suddenly the clerk was naked. So were the female shoppers! He removed the glasses and everyone was clothed. "Sold!", he said.
Riding the bus home, he put the glasses on again. The bus driver was naked and all the passengers were naked! He took them off and everyone was clothed again.
When he got home, he put his new glasses on before opening the front door. When he entered the living room, there on the sofa were his wife and his best friend, naked! He took the glasses off, but they were still naked.
"***!" he said. "A thousand bucks for a magic trick and in 30 minutes it's already broken!"

Three years ago you this goddamn old man publicly told Ghanaians loud and clear about your statement "YEN AKANFUO" which implied that you cherish and belong to only one tribe out of hundreds of tribes we have in Ghana. I don't think a real patriot will go the way you went. Our great and visionary President Dr Kwame Nkrumah did not only united Ghana but he went further to detribalised Ghana. He was the true patriot of Ghana and not the way the late father of this con of oldman teamed up with his friends and betrayed Ghana to the Americans and their friends from UK and the West. Ghanaians should not allowed themselves to be fooled by this old crook who is also a son of the nation wreckers. He is only finding means to retrieve the properties of his late father he sold to sponsor his bid for the presidency he lost in 2008 and 2012. His siblings are demanding their shares from him. This old man is likely to commit suicide if he fails for the third time in December.

You led a stupid demonstration tagged " Kumepreko " and four able young men lost their lives but you did not even visit their parents to symphatise with them. Between 2001 and 2008 you were a minister under your evil party NPP but you still did not remember to trace and symphatise with their parents. Those poor souls were wasted because you incited them to take part in that stupid and senseless demonstrations because when you had power you rather increased the VAT you stood against. Do you think your soul is more important than the souls of those 4 young men? You will dearly pay for that when you finally kick the bucket! Baaaaaaad old man.
