First, we need transparent laws, rules and regulations. Next, there must be open discussion of issues in a free and vibrant press environment. Finally, probity must be seen as the other arm of accountability.

ghanaman, it's true that free and vibrant press will guarantee the taking of responsibility by individuals and institutions but it is still the same free press that the accusers use to push blame to others.

Ghanaians please discern and wake up from your slumber else these politicians will send you to the Hades unexpectedly which you ain't ready for

Thank you Mr Steve for your time in bringing out this piece. I might not write a lengthy comment. But this canker cut across the Ghanaian people if not even all the sub Saharan African region. The blame game is too much. I know our white folks if they can't perform they resign but it is not the case of our people or leaders. God should have mercy on us.

When will this blame game stop in Ghanna? What we need are concrete steps towards solving Ghana's problems.
