Bridges may be built across a valley where there is no river. You may also build a bridge across a wide street/highway - for the safety of pedestrians. So bridges don't necessarily have to be linked to waterways!

Why don't you try and compare these 'austerity measures' in Ghana to Britain under the Cameron/Clegg government? Where is the "corruption" in what you have written? Is this party political propaganda, sensationalism or pure opportunism?

Did you say the increases in tariffs was "illegal"? and it was the government increasing "university fees"? Have you counted the number of strikes in other countries?

So, what is your proposal for dealing with the problems you have enumerated? Would you pay the salaries arrears of civil and other public servants for example?

And if you were to do that, would you then say that the government is borrowing too much? You want to 'eat your cake and have it' don't you?

The shameless NDC government has returned the country to the economics of the Acheampong era whereby the govt borrows heavily from foreign sources and then mortgages all exports over an extended period of time to pay for it. Meanwhile, the borrowed money is not utilized for national development but goes into individual pockets. (Remember 'fa wo to begye Golf'?). We are reliving it all over again, this time in the form of judgment debts. The simple but sad truth about Ghana's economic condition is that at the moment we are not receiving any revenues from our exports, not even oil, the borrowed money is nowhere to be found and there is no financial planning. Soon enough, government is going to find it very hard to pay workers. So, for the Minister of Finance to assert that government is working to achieve its deficit target, however difficult, is not only disingenuous and false, but an attempt to cover up the wild, rampant corruption within the government. All this coming from a political party that prides itself of the principles of accountability, transparency and probity!!! Ghanaians, we are in for another long, bumpy ride.
