On the contrary, Hon Seth Terkper and Hon Ato Forson have been vindicated.

The growth in GDP is attributable to fiscal drag - the effect of economic measures manifests in the economy after a time lag of several months.

The GDP growth we are seeing is attributable to economic measures taken last year and before.

Go-way-you-there, Ofori Atta and your green lies. Come out now and give us all the details of the $2.25 billion dollar bond you arranged under darkness. And gullible Sankofa and his cohorts are here clapping for this fake, cheap, populist, and infantile statement. Why are you people so cheap and shallow-minded? No wonder these thieving politicians know your hollowness, so they'll always throw any crap information at you and lie to you in the face as well. Grow up and stop fooling yourselves.

The growth in GDP is welcome news.

It is a vindication of the economic policies of the Mahama admin.

The current government can't take any credit for. This was long projected even before we went into the polls in December, 2016.

2019 numbers will determine the performance of the current economic team. We must be cautiously optimistic for the execution of this government's transformational policies. When the positive numbers roll in Ato Forson and Adongo will shut up or return to the classroom to study development economics and real financial engineering.?

People must understand that economic growth is not the same as economic development. Growth is increase in goods/ services. Development is people centered

Foolish NPP people reaping what they did not sow and callously claiming the glory. Which government in the world ever grew an economy by such a margin in six months? Did NPP develop the TEN oil field which the report is all about? I will continue to say: Ghanaians are the most illiterate people on this planet. Our average correct reasoning level is assessed by me to be less than 5%. Well done John Manana! Your foresight has started bearing positively on Ghana's economy resulting into her current growth figures of nearly 7%. And will soon reach 10% with the commencement of the Sankofa oil fields. Real Ghanaians know that you're the greatest builder of modern Ghana, and that fact will forever remain indelible on the minds of many and many, but not the glory seeking npp corrupt people.

How did this happen when there is revenue shortfall ?
The first quarter is january-march.
The npp budget was read in march.
The NDC read a budget in Nov for the first quarter of the year.
So who takes responsibility for the growth because the npp budget didn't kick in as at march.
