Mr Abeeku, I'm assuming you meant "Dire Consequence" rather than "Dyer Consequence".

I am assuming he meant "dire" too. I had goose bumps all over me body reading his diatribe. Hold on, buddy, "me body" is colloquial English-speak construction we Londoners are familiar with. E.g, a true native will say, "I am going to take me tea"; not "my tea."

For someone who is out to call others "illiterates", one would have expected he has a firm command of the written language of his choice for communicating that news to us. There were so many boo-boos in his write-up one can swoon reading it.

Mr Rasta,what Abeeku is pointing out is quite simple.The government has received an injection of capital that have helped stabilized the Cedi.Does it mean we will always have to borrow to do the trick?.The government is just adding more loans to the already astronomical figure facing the nation instead of coming up with programes that can bring relief.Mind you these Bonds and Cocoa credits totalling $2.2billion are simply loans that must be paid for.

Mr KOO, Seriously then what he is pointing out is pedestrian. Everyone knows that Mr. Promise Bohyeba Mahama has over borrowed and keeps borrowing. If this borrowing has brought relief, I may not applaud him, but at the same time I want draw daggers at him if its yielding desired results. If you happen to be changing forex for business , you would appreciate my relief the GHs is stable .

If we are not blinded by out political views, common sense will tell urs that the point he is making is right. The cause of the fall in the cedi is the demand for foreign currencies to pay for our high imports. What they did is a one time huge injection of foreign currency into the economy to meet the demand. Unless we increase our exports or reduce our imports, there will come another cycle when demand for foreign currencies exceed the supply, because what we make from our exports will be used to pay for these loans, and the lack or shortage of the foreign currency to pay for our imports will put pressure on the local currency

Hahaaaa! $2.2 billion can not solve our problems. Period!

Those ignorant NDC loud mouths will have to reverse their arguments again very soon.
