  Mahama packed his govt with mpepefuo, most whom have no clue how to manage anything. Look at the country.

  This summed up the state of the nation address pretty much for some of us:
  
  "Everything was centred on the Executive alone.
  Even, the Right to Information initiative still remains a bill more than four years when it was conceived and action began being taken on it. No coordination of efforts, which is why there is so much incompetence and plain chicanery and treachery in governance. Nobody acts with dispatch to solve problems. How can we develop our country this way?" - By Dr. Michael J.K. Bokor
  
  
  
  Mahama is a joker and a failure. Promises, promises and more promises. He is just blowing hot air and no action. - Antiochus - London
  
  
  The president does not understand what government is all about. There is nothing new in his state of the nation address and he was happy to repeat what we already know about his ineptness, clueless, ignorant, deceit, dishonest, lies etc. How long can this president keep on promising without fulfilling them? He had said before that Ghanaians have short memories and that is a recipe for him to keep on making promises knowing too well that our minds are screwed to the point of remembering anything he said last year. - Pelicles

  Don,t compare USA to Ghana. This is where you lost the flavor of your point. It took America 200 years to get to where they are today.

  Mahama may not be doing too well but sometimes I get fed up with all these Ghanaians who sit abroad and think they know what's wrong with Ghana and also know all the answers to every problem.

  Congratulations to President Mahama on his state of the union address. However I missed hearing about the plan being developed by the Government of Ghana to build nuclear power plants for electricity generation in 2018. The traditional sources of power generation as noted during the address will inevitably leave Ghana’s overall energy needs woefully inadequate for the foreseeable future. I therefore urge the president to support the nuclear energy bill and work diligently with the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission to facilitate the plan. It is time to go beyond research and nuclear medicine applications of the nuclear program to electric power generation.
  Second, the plan to construct several hospitals in Ghana is laudable, yet I think Ghana also needs several acute care hospitals within the planned hospital mix. These hospitals should be dedicated specifically to the care of trauma patients. The reasoning is that each year many Ghanaians die needlessly or are severely injured from motor vehicle/cycle collisions, gunshots, knife wounds, burns, mangling of hands/feet and the like. There are just too few acute care hospitals or emergency services in the country whose primary purpose should be to save lives under such dire circumstances. Since the majority of these injuries are unintentional, it makes sense to have trauma centers placed at strategic locations throughout the country. This is critical because about 90% of all trauma deaths and injury-related disabilities in the world occur in developing countries, including Ghana. The bell tolls for you and me!
