  I am excited with your use of talent. Finding time to comment on issues that interest ordinary Ghanaians, in addition to your career as a Medical Practitioner is no mean achievement.
  
  If I were to nominate people into the NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLANNING COMMISSION, you will add to these:
  
  Prof Stephen Kweku Asare (Kwaku Azar) Florida; and GHANAWEB SIL
  
  Dr Kwaku Danso (Founder, Ghana National Party).
  
  You guys are doing great jobs with your commentaries, without political biases, although Norvi Kwaku Azar openly endorses NPP.
  
  Cheers and long live Ghana

  GAHANAIANS ABROAD CAN SOLVE THIS PROBLEMS WITHIN THE SHORT TIME, SOME OF THESE GHANAIANS ARE TECHNICIANS FOR WIND ENERGY WHICH WE MAY NEED IT RIGHT NOW, SOME OF THESE GUYS ALSO ARE WORKING IN THE SOLAR SIDE SO GHANA DO NOT HAVE SO MUCH PROBLEM. OF THE MINISTERS DO NOT STOP WITH THEIR BRIBES TAKING FROM THE PEOPLE THE COUNTRY WILL SINK. NO ONE IS READY TO PAY BRIBE TO DEVELOP HIS HER OWN COUNTRY. THERE MUST BE SOME SOCIETY IN THE SYSTEM TO WELLCOME GHANAIANS ABROAD FOR DEVELOPMENT.

  Mr Hard Talk, yours is good talk. Thank God for people like you. This is not about politics. It's about policy. Bringing ghanaians with their professional and technical expertise home is a good thing to do if the administration puts aside the old nemesis of partisan politics for once and consider the benefits that will accrue this nation. "Why should we always be thirsty when we have abundant water reserves all around us"?. We have the human resources scattered all around the world and we have abundant natural resources at home.Are we the fools Bob Marley was talking about when he sang the famous line "In the abundance of water the fool is thirsty" or just one of the many fools ? Whichever way you look at it we must be fools to be so richly endowed but not knowing what to do with it for our own benefit.

  The campaigns and elections are over. Until the Supreme Court rejects the results declared by the Electoral Commissioner and rules otherwise Mahama is the president.He has to put the partisan politics aside and get on with the policies and real governing. People are hurting and the time for action is now.
  Rotating cabinet meetings between Accra and the regional capitals may be an innovation if I'm correct but will it necessarily effect the needed changes? I'm afraid it's going to be just another political rally where only party loyalists will be allowed to participate. Mahama would predictably be preaching to the choir and the government will fail abysmally to effect the policies that will raise the living standards of impoverished ghanaians.Some ghanaians would perceive Mahama, with an already battered image coming out of the elections, as gallivanting around and wasting our scarce financial resources just ego tripping. I think the administration must rather hold regular town hall meetings and invite all ghanaians irrespective of their political party affiliation or even tribe to attend and rather not stymie opposing groups attempts to attend.
  Ghana will only prosper if we are united as a nation and people are treated equally regardless of tribe or party, in opportunities or administration of justice.
  As a firm supporter of the opposition New Patriotic Party's challenge of the presidential election results and the general conduct of the elections by the EC, I'd like to add my voice to the calls already made to stop boycotting government business . Mahama and the EC really threw a monkey wrench in their works but at the end of the day it's about Ghana not Mahama. I know they love Ghana dearly and I'm entreating them to get to work in the name of Ghana whilst the Supreme Court gets about its business.
  Thanks Sodzi. Wish all ghanaians were somewhat like you.
