Former Minister of Communications, Dr Edward Omane Boamah believes the Chinese government will demand for more crude oil and other natural resources in return for the huge amounts they are extending to the country.
He indicates that they are likely to make outrageous demands in return for the amounts that have been given to the country in the form of loans and grants.
“The Chinese’ government will ask for more and more of Ghana’s crude oil and other natural resources- if we are interested in the huge sums they are offering…and the request can be outrageous sometimes,” he posted on his facebook wall.
Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, shortly after arrival on Sunday June 26 from a working visit to China, announced that government had reached an agreement with the Chinese government for the mutual benefit of both countries in relation to a US$15billion Chinese loan.
According to him, there were no underlying conditions attached to the loan which would be invested in government’s One-District-One-Factory project and other sectors of the economy, the Ranking Member on the Finance Committee of Parliament said China could still influence government to their benefit.
Dr. Bawumia also assured that the assistance from the Chinese government would not compromise the fight against galamsey as the Chinese government does not support galamsey and has cautioned its citizens’ resident in Ghana to be law-abiding.
But members of the opposition are skeptical amount the promised by the Chinese government wondering if government is in the position to meet those demands that may be advanced by the Chinese who in similar fashion promised the erstwhile National Democratic Congress (NDC) some amount but failed to deliver.

Bad losers
Were they making demands on you when you were giving contracts to wood sellers to do ICT solutions on the National Data Centre project?
Yes thats what you get from the chinese when you go to the table seeking to fill your stomach rather than the heart!
Of-course thats what you get when inexperience naive and incompetent men are sent to negotiate... like NDC did.
When did these guys know all this.. Just like a year ago u are everywhere in china begging for loans which are not necessary because u don't even know what u are coming to do with the money. U don't have negotiation skills nothing but u were dancing the Chinese were going to give Ghana $3b at the end china stopped at 1b due to ur corrupt. Let have our peace u baby's with sharp teeth. Just sit down and see what governance means, U don't even know what is join venture from loan. OLOSHIE
The Chinese may make outrageous demands only when you go to the negotiation table with your hungry stomach not your smart head like what Dr. Omane and his corrupt party did when they were in power. But Ghanaians voted for a smart and honest team to be in charge of Ghana. They will negotiate with their smart heads to prevent any outrageous demands from the Chinese. Dr. Omane Boamah, smart politicians negotiate with their Head not thier hungry stomachs!
That's the dumbe$t analogy ever. You belong in the Stone Age, with the cavemen, driving Fred Flintstone's Footmobile . You need to travel and see and understand what women are capable of! Stop limiting yourself to Ghanaian women who are easily intimidated on the road because ape$ like you only know how to drive offensively. I hope that one fine day you'll be in need and a woman driver will come to your help. St00pid M0ron!
SO YOU NDC PEOPLE, WERE GIVEN OUTRAGEOUS OFFER TO THEM ,WITHOUT TELLING GHANAIANS? THAT IS WHY YOU ARE NOWELL IN OPPOSITION.
Why are ndc talking? Don't they want to come back to power? If they do and think NPP are doing the wrong thing why can't they sh*t up and see how NPP will put themselves in a mess for the ndc to run with it as a campaign message? If I were ndc and know very well this will hurt the government I will just keep quiet and look at how they will mess up and use it but because ndc knows it will help the people or are ign****barred word*** they are rushing to show their incompetence even in opposition for Ghanaians to embrace themselves of the good work they did by driving away the ndc in a spectacular way. They ndc don't understand what the NPP is doing so they are dizzy and talking anyhow. NPP knows the best for the people and will never betray them,they will never send the good people of Ghana into danger zone like the ndc did. I ask the people of Ghana to Believe in the competence,efficiency and trustworthy of the NPP that they will deliver to the satisfaction of the good people of Ghana. Never fear my people they will never put Ghana in the harms way. TRUST THEM they are there for you not their party or themselves but GHANA.Ndc are heartless and don't care of Ghana but only their party ndc,discard that party into the dust bin
