Ahhh, you sat ahhhhhhh until things are completely out of hand and you turn to say ' emergency ' what? To do what?. Keep mocking the silence of Ghanaians.If your mother is dead and you keep saying she's sleeping, when mothers are bringing food to their children, we will know who sleeps hungry. Currently it's like Ghana don't have an economy to be managed. You manage with something in your hand, nobody can manage with zero (0). This emergency meeting is much i do about nothing.
