ghana is considered a developing country so it is wrong to compare us to U.S.A. besides these ppl are being brot to restructure the economy and boost business in ghana. take a lil look at the list and see which one falls short. my favorite is sanitation and railway cos ghana is lagging in those sectors paa.
Oh I see so Akuffo Addo is going to continue Mahama's policy of gaayy rights, you know that's what gender is for right? By the way what at all does Atta Akyea know about works and housing as a lawyer. Aa maybe colluding with other lawyers to take over clients houses has given him enough experience. The Akyem and their fake ascension continues. No matter what you'll never be like Ashantis. okay?
Nothing different oohhh, jobs for the boys begin to compare these appointees with NDC appointees, nothing different. Compare Oyeh Lithur with Otiko Gyabaaa... kooon for NPP. Plus soso akans. So those riding the horse of competence mean to tell us that there are no competent people in the other regions?????
Nana you are my guy. I have always had trust in you. But i think you have started off on a wrong note. We dont need these many ministers to do the job. Creating a Ministry of Monitoring and Evaluation for what? Every sector Ministry should have a department for M&E. USA population - 319 Million Number of Departments(Ministries) - 15. Ghana population 24 Million. Number of Ministries - over 25 and counting. What at all is this? JOB FOR THE BOS AS USUAL
See my previous comment
You don't appoint babies with sharp teeth who have never achieved anything in their private lives to manages public offices. Competency and experience is paramount here. We want to right the wrongs of the moribund economy NDC bequeathed to us.
Where is Dr am oak baah. Nana should get him ministry of barbering and good grooming so he can cut his hair and stinkingg beard.
