  You can never be a good student(this is highly unacademiic statement . Because good student must critisize and give alternatives.you have problems wit the grammar that contained in the article but fail to highlights were exactly the grammatical errors are.so if you cannot do so and write your own version, keep your mouth shut or better still don't critisize people's work okay!

  My good friend, you seem to be lobbying for the old man who want to become a President at all course. Yet you have not stated any vision for the old man compare to the young man that you have unfortunately judged from a partisan point of view for not doing well. Well you are entitled to your opinion but let me bring your attention to something, I am not lobbying or campaigning for any political party in Ghana, have that in mind. Now this is what I want to tell you. Ghana's economy see its grave decline when Ghana join HIPC league. Because at the time, Ghana's major international partners and donors withdrawn their interest in Ghana since HIPC violet their international trade laws. Ghana registered a huge economic down slide but at the same time made some gain when our debt were council couple with the released of the HIPC funds to Ghana which when use judiciously could have close the decline gab, but government at the time misappropriate this funds leaving the debt unsealed and interned created more debt before leaving office and the debt gab keep deepening till today. Now, you talk about Obama, President Obama inherited collapsed economy in the face of recession where companies were closing down at a very faster and devastating pace. And in such situation, you will not see economic growth. The government will first have to stabilize the economy, which President Obama did, and it is now that the economy is picking up. The housing industry that had totally collapsed has picked up. The banks, the health sector, educational sector, technology and other private sectors have seen a boost, God bless America. The same way the current government of Ghana inherited a collapse economy and in the third word country, it will take time for the economy to be stable unless there is a miracle. Now lets talk about age. When Ghana politician tells you that he is 72 years, that is political age just as a foot ball age in Ghana. He is actually older than that. If you go to birth and death and check their records, there you will know the number of times politicians changes their birth certificates. In a biblical point of view, God gave us 70 years and after that age, anything else is just taking you closer to eternity. I know some people live up to 100 years but how many of us are that lucky? Take professor Adu Boahene for example, if he was the one elected instead of J.A. Kufuor, what would his story be? We can put people in office and start writing their obituary. 10 year old do die but when that happens, it is misfortune. But when 70+ person die, it is home that he went to. There are several ways the old man can contribute his quota to the development of Ghana not necessarily being President. God Bless Ghana.

  How can you put Nkrumah and Kufour on the same pedestal? The article is sickening. Fact is, Akufo Addo's theme in the last elections lost because the lines were all deceptive and Ghanaians saw through it. How can people enjoy free SHS when you don't even have the SHS infrastructure?
