John Yawose should not be the only intelligent person in his own eyes. He might have a different understandng or appreciation of the issues at stake, but that does not mean that if others reason differently from him, they are not being honest or flattering the president as he calls it. I personally followed the vetting by which lots of persons followed the regional ministers. Right there I knew the ministers were going to be in deep trouble. Indeed my fears were confirmed when a chief from the Brong Ahafo Region, in his disappointment at the transfer of the minister let the cat out of the bag. He said he had had lots of promises from the regional minister and that with his transfer to another region all the promises were going to come to naught. That was what the president foresaw and that was what informed his decision to take the ministers out of those temptations of becoming victims to all manner of nepotism and cronysm. Aplace klike the eastern region wpould have had a terrible experience if the regional minister, who was then the regional party chairman was made to remain there. You could have imagined the various foot soldiers all trooping to their cheif foot soldier of the region. What presidents see sitting down might not be seen by persons like Yawose if they happen to be on the world's tallest skyscapper and they should learn to keep their mouths shut.

This is a trial and error President. He is not decisive and this is not good for the nation so I think the writer is right. appointing regional ministers from outside your region doesn't change the attitude of NDC fool soldiers. It is in their DNA.

Center to all this corruption now is the ewe tribalism that has a stranglehold on the ndc and now most of the state agencies that are to combat this menace. yes corruption exists in all countries but ours has become more notorious than the nigerian , during kuffuor's time it was know he and his cronies would try and secure a 0.5 to 5% commission now ndc is known for not less than 20% going up all the way to 200 300 or even 500% . loans achieve even parliamentary approval are withdrawn as business wise it just doesnt make sense. the civil service especial ministry of finance has turned into a money grabbing arm twisting mafia that up to 3 years ago would frustrate any endeavor undertook en if one would not pay , in short the process would move at a snails pace . the last couple of years if you dont pay your files and docs would go missing or you would eventually be accused of defrauding the state or some other fabricated heinous crime and end up with the bni , police or some other agency of repression fighting for your life. in short would take by force from you what you did not willingly give.Some now advocate for JJ methods of dealing with this system of doom, but rawlings style of governance can never come back as the revolution propaganda and media hype was nothing but a sophisticated cover and camouflage of the ewe persecution of the Akans mainly the ashantis as by the end of the Acheampong era most govt institutions and factories were being managed by Ashantis, today most are in the hands of northerners , Gas and ewes so to clean up the babies and fruits of the revolution with another is impossible , the only solution is now a civil war . now tribalistically speaking without being accused again of chauvinism or Akan nationalism we have a situation whereby this alliance of the ewes , part of the gas and northerners , that is less than 15 % of the population by varios means of election engineering , rigging divide and rule now are looting as quickly as they can all the wealth of the nation as they know this can not last forever . unfortunately when they are done we shall be left with a war and no future for our children due to our own laziness to see the truth for what it really is . here is a govt so busy with their cover up for the SADA that not a single minister or leader to come out this Easter with a message of hope as their hearts are filled with so much evil and hate . yes this govt will leave one day for sure despised and hated by the people , never to come back again.

THIS IS CLEARLY A "TRIAL & ERROR" GOVERNMENT RUN BY A PARTY WHICH HAS AN INCOMPETENCE AND CORRUPTION DNA, RUNNING IN ITS BLOOD CELLS. GHANA WILL BE WORSE OFF AFTER FOUR MORE YEARS, JUST AS IT WAS AFTER 20 YEARS OF RAWLINGS AND FOUR YEARS OF ATTA MILLS/JOHN MAHAMA.

What exactly is "scientific management reasoning"? And you want all the balanced and wise analysts of this matter to believe that just because you can 'string words together', you can insult the president and our intelligence? You better think again. Contrary to your opinion, Mahama in my view has shown that not only is he in control, he has shown maturity, guts and a sense of purpose. It is now up to the ministers to perform wherever they have been placed, as GHANAIANS.

Stop this nonsense about where people should be put. I do not think that the president has a point to prove to anyone, and so your prescription about sending people of "Northern extraction) to the "South" and vice versa is beside the point.

I seem to recall what a fine job one Col. Ekuamah did as Upper Regional Commissioner (under Kutu Acheampong's SMC I) along with the regional Adiministrative Officer who was also Akan, during the mid-to late 1970s. I do not for a moment believe that Acheampong did that to prove any particular point and it has been shown to be effective. The current reshuffle in my view is the beginning of things and shows you his intentions, and there should be no surprise if in the future he moves people into other regions in the way you have suggested in your article.

I think we should all leave the president to carry on with the job and stop this 'fence-sitting criticism' just because talk is cheap and anyone can say whatever they like in a functioning democracy such as ours.
