    After gaining power, the first thing npp is thinking about is the celebration of 60 years. K4 celebrated 50 year and we all saw the thiefery. This is a way to steal on the blank side on Ghanaians.

    This is an avenue NPP can use to enrich themesleves and the party. Ghana at 60 is not worth celebrating. What are we celebrating at 60? JB Danquah and Nana Addo's feat of making Ghana first world country????

  • Prof Lungu 7 years ago

    GhanaBoy,
    It is too early. So, all we will say is, we hope they do not us any opportunity "to enrich themselves", except as approved by law that is in the best interest of Ghanaians.

    Kwarteng, is it because of the 60 that you are so worried about? Otherwise Ghana has been celebrating her independence anniversary since 1956. I don't know why you didn't complain about the Afcon 2017 since there is still ope ...

    Ghana started celebrating its independence in 1956, you say? Are you serious? Are you a Ghanaian? Or a Sudanese? And you and who should join the President? Speak for yourself.

    Ask Kufuor why he spent a whopping 176 million on a mediocre, foolish structure called the Golden Jubilee House?
