  This is not good enough to be allowed in the market. You cannot prove the effectiveness of a vaccine with only few participants and within a short period of time. This is bullshit science. Africa universities needs to work on ...

  This is not good enough to be allowed in the market. You cannot prove the effectiveness of a vaccine with only few participants and within a short period of time. This is bullshit science. Africa universities needs to work on creating better vaccine instead of depending on creepy clinical trails of this vaccine. Please stop them before they do more harm than good.

  ATTITUE & MENTALITY CHANGE
  "The head, the present leadership like the previous ones, is drunk most of the time with whiskey, or too lazy,tired, womanizing,lacking fresh ideas, procrastinating or not caring when it's sober.
  This is the way we do it here.Ghana itself is a work in progress. We'll get the house numbering and street naming done but we wont promise or set any time limits".
  BY MENSAH ABRAMPA...LISTEN, IF YOU DONT SET A TIME LIMIT, U ARE PROLLY WORKING IN A CAROUSEL.....
  YOU MUST SET LIMITS AND TARGETS TO DISCIPLINE, CHALLENGE YOURSELF. DONT LIE TO YOURSELF....
  
  OPEN GUTTERS IN GH
  IDIOTS. COVER THE OPEN GUTTERS IN GH? COVER ALL THE GUTTERS SO PPL DONT THROW TRASH IN THEM.
  U CAN IMPORT ALL THE MALARIA DRUGS AND BURN MOSQUITO COIL TREE ALL DAY LIKE INCENSE IN A RASTAFARI HOME. IF YOU DONT COVER UP THESE OPEN GUTTERS, DRAINAGE SYSTEMS
  AND DESTROY BREEDING GROUDS FOR MOSQUITOES. THE MIN OF HEALTH WILL SIMPLY BE THROWING AWAY MONEY. ATTACK MALARIA FROM THE SOURCE.
  DO AWAY WITH THESE BAND AID SOLUTIONS N SEEK LONG TERM, CONCRETE SOLUTIONS TO UR PROBLEMS. HOW DOES MALARIA AFFECT OUR NATIONAL GDP ON A YEALRY BASIS?
  OKO VANDERPUYE THAT VILLAGER SAYS HE USED TO LIVE IN NEW YORK.
  DID HE EVER SEE ANY OPEN, MOSQUITO BREEDING GUTTERS OVER THERE? OUR SO CALLED MONKEY LEADERS HVE CHIMP BRAINS. EVER HEARD OF MANHOLES?
  WHY ARE YOU HELPING THE MOSQUITOES TO BREED N BITE PPL, SPREADING MALARIA?
  Maxwell Kofi Jumah who claims to have "concrete evidence" to support his allegation says, President Mahama is the architect behind the huge monies given to RLG and Zoomlion,
  both service providers to the Ghana Youth Employment and Entrepreneurial Agency (GYEEDA).
  FOLKS, HOW CAN Salaries Of Ghanaian MPs BE THE 3rd Highest In The World? HIPC, 3RD WORLD NATION GHANA?...NO WAY!
  REDUCE THE SALARIES OF THESE USELESS , OVERINFLATED EGOS N USE THE CASH TO DEVELOP BETTER DRAINAGE SYSTEMS, OUR RAILWAYS, HIGHWAYS, MARKETS, STADIUMS, POLICE FORCE, SECURITY AGENCIES.
  OH GH. TOO MUCH STRIFE, HUNGER. PPL ARE DISILLUSIONED. THEY DONT EVEN USE THEIR THINKING CAPS ANYMORE. THEY ACT AND BEHAVE LIKE ZOMBIES. ALL BECAUSE OF LACK OF FORESIGHT, PLANNING
  CORRUPTION N GREED FROM OUR SO CALLED POT BELLIED LEADERS.
  Most of the over $541 million revenue received from oil in 2012 was drained by Government due to poor planning and spending decisions rendering most of the projects incomplete.
  Compared to its African neighbors like Malawi, Tanzania and the DRC, Ghana’s cost overruns are at least 18 percent higher.

  Why do Africans always have to look up to the Whiteman for help? Looks as if we have no brains to think?
  No wonder some of the Whites think colonization and slavery was justified and did Africans more good than harm!
