  All discernible Ghanaians know that NDC doesn't have what it takes to solve the challenges facing the nation. P/NDC usurped power and wasted 20 years of our national life without any tangible results before NPP came and improved the situation dramatically.
  
  Unfortunately, the NDC party was given another mandate in 2009 with new oil revenue to try again, but the result so far has been HIPIC, Domsor, low production, unprecedented corruption, currency depreciation, over-taxation, unprecedented hardship and hunger with another "Rawlings' chain".
  
  NDC should therefore be shown the door come 2016 with a promise not to ever come back again.

  A good one for farmers and agricultural policy.
  
  READ: "...The sector needs a lot of capital injection. That’s all. Cheap credits, good subsidies, modernized technology, better infrastructure to link farmers and buyers..."
  
  
  WE SAY: We agree. After all, even the US subsidizes that sector, $15-$35 billion every year. Better infrastructure means also refrigeration. And "modernized technology" does include preservation methods for produce.
  
  However, one does not need huge, imported, mechanized equipment in a land of surplus labor and super high unemployment.
  
  Improvements in rural life with urban facilities does the trick in more ways than one, if we may channel the writer that we know what to do already.
  
  Peace.

  I agree with you 100%, but if you dilute it with communism as Nkrumah did, it will not work. We will end up like the erstwhile Soviet Union or North Korea.
