    While some countries are cutting back on big government and slashing salaries, Ghana is rather doing the opposite. God help us.

  • Kobby Sarr 7 years ago

    Where is Rawlings, Mensah Otabil, Rev Martey, Dr. Amoakoh Bash and others who always defend Nana Akufo Addo. Please try to advise the Prez to cut down the total number of ministers. The 110 ministers is too much. I also charg ...
