Yeah, Franklin is doing dumb politics. The problem happening is because of poor digital infrastructure. Bawumia tagged Mr. digital after running away from Economic Wizkid has added nothing to our infrastructure neither does his manifesto say anything about satellite or subsea cables. So what does the current problem relate to Bawumia and what drive has Bawumia added except we are facing 5 months with no data as Liberia and SA have resolved?

Nonsense. Inland fibre optic network was Kufuor's work with a credit facility from China following the visit of Wen Jiabao. You numskulls should stop attributing everything to Mahama. It's becoming annoying!

PLEASE, STOP LYING TO GHANAIANS. ENOUGH OF THE INSULTS ON OUR INTELLIGENCE.

Mahama the main fiberoptic cables for internet in Ghana. Mahama built the Accra Digital Centre. SSNIT, Controller and Accountant General Dept, other state institutions including the public universities (UG, KNUST, UCC, UEW, etc) digitilized long before 2017 when Bawumia became VP. The banks and many private sector players had digitilized.

What does Bawumia do when he says he is digitilizing state institutions? And what is use and duties of the MDs and Board Members of these institutions? Why are they still at post if their jobs are being done by Bawumia?

Does Bawumia move from institution to institution and carry out technical and needs assessment, acquisition of software and hardware (or even software development), installation of software and hardware, system configuration, test run, etc???

Exactly what does Bawumia do (while the MDs, CEOs, board members look on) when he says he is digitilizing? Someone help me with CREDIBLE response.

Ignore this two faced coin and forked tongue. 1st he says digitisation vindicated by connectivity crisis and argues that we need satellite not high speed under water cable. Then he equalises by suggesting that CJs two shift system validates 24 hr economy. Correction a first shift from 8.30 to 11.30am and a second shift from 2pm to 6.30pm, is a normal working day divided into 2 shifts. It cannot be linked to a 34 hr economy by no stretch of political imagination. No judge is sitting through. That will be ridiculously dangerous in a country where politicians abducted and murdered supreme court judges, lest we forget.

There’s something called the bubble that relates overindulgence and the a shock, disruption or collapse. For example, the bubble that comes with the proliferation of banks or the collapse of cryptocurrencies. The whole interface or digitization technology runs at the risk of an unexpected shock or collapse. The cure is not more dependence. We need to maintain and upgrade other traditional ways of doing business and getting things running. Our electoral system is now digitized so we fear rigging because right in the middle of voting or during vote counting, something could happen. More digitization can’t help. Get kerosene and market women’s lanterns ready.

BAWUMIA IS THE FUTURE
Only fools think that the internet service we are enjoying comes through magical means. No wonder their god Mahama attributed jobs provision through magical means also. He said and I quote, “I’m not a magician to provide you with jobs.” Now he’s a full fledged magician and ready to provide Ghanaians with jobs. So let’s now call him Professor Mahama since he’s replacing Professor Diego the great magician. And the fools still believe and follow him.

Thank you for seeing things this way. I was just speaking with a friend of mine yesterday that Bawumia and his boss are a joke. If this so called digital drive had been planned well and not just a knee jerk reaction for people to gloss over his failure in the economics spheres after his rantings, they should have sat and thought of the infrastructural requirements before rolling out his so called digital drive. So as you have rightly said, Franklin Cudjo is making a jest of him.

Cluelessness is catching up with Franklin Cudjoe. The disruptions of our internet services have rather shown that lying jihadist Timothy Bawumia is just disturbing our eardrums with the digitilisation JAZZ. We are still in the mouths of the West. If Africans have a strong economies, they can rather put satellites in space for their internet services. However having useless economists like Timothy Bawumia, who are only good in propaganda, Africa will remain a backward continent.

This whole undersea business has really exposed the government of the day and it’s institutions insisting on only ONE INDENTIFICATION, without options such as the BOG, EC etc etc. Any country that is inflexible without options is doomed to failure and for me we must hasten slowly but surely with the digitisation with options.

Where lies the vindication? Digitalization is acknowledged by any leader in the world and Africa and so when did it become an innovation from Bawumia. Mahama laid the infrastructure and the data centre and so why are we overlooking that important milestone to praise Bawumia always? The internet interruption has rather exposed how Bawumia has failed to access the infrastructure expansion and look at alternative source to keep the systems running. You guys blow too much parochialism to confuse Ghanaians. We are now matured and such one sided propaganda will not work. Mature!!!

This guy promised us heaven and accused Amissah Arthur and Mahama for not been good Veeps
Amissah Arthur died Mahama lost election because we listened to this liar and voted Mahama out.
Now we know Amissah
We know Mahama
We know Bawumia as well and just too well and he is a big disappointment and a big shame

Nonsensical bullshit from these NPP idiots. Ghana doesn't control the internet, own the infrastructure cables or any of the other data centers. So the so-called digitalisation only makes you vulnerable

Irrespective of the different angles of the debates here, the different points of view just go to show who dumb or politically blindfolded Ghanaians are. We can't discuss any issue objectively without pulling politics into it. Starting with loudmouthed Franklin Cudjoe who must say something at anything, what has the cut in the subsea cable got to do with the digitalization agenda of DMB?

You make a good point that the current frustrations everyone is facing shows the importance of digitalization in our lives already, but because you hate DMB and the NPP, you must add some unnecessary comments to give a political twist to it, apparently to make you look brilliant. What makes you think being negative all the times makes you look intelligent.

And of, course the dumbs follow your lead to spew out their political venoms - either totally incapable of appreciating the wider context of the situation we face or too intellectually corrupt and dishonest to admit any reality other than what serves their very narrow political interest. And they call themselves humans - homo sapiens!! What a sorry people.

if Bawumia and Akuffui Addoi are very sensitive to what they are saying , they should have taken the infrastructure deficit very serious.

Wake up from your sleep. The phone companies are lying and cheating you all. They have been lazy and not investing in a proper network. To rely one 1 Internet provider is total folly, there are hundreds of providers. When the Internet goes down it automatically finds a new route. That's how the Americans devised it, in the case of a nuclear war communication is maintain. The telecom companies in Ghana are lazy, liars and cheats. The camels have not been repaired but the telecom companies have been forced to seek other providers, now the Internet is functioning again. We cannot trust idiot politicians who don't have a clue about the technology involved.

My country people are fascinating indeed. How can a continent wide Internet fibre disruption be attributable to incoming Pres Bawumia. Most people seem to lack fair sense of judgement. If anything the disruption is proving how important digitalisation is crucial in driving our economy and everyday life. It means the nation must invest more for alternative connectivity in case of such disruptions. Still, Bawumia is the visionary future

You’re no expert in internet marketing and technology neither are you an expert in basic technology infrastructure, Franklin Cudjoe so shut the hell up. Without Mahama’s fiber optic infrastructure network which platform do you think digitalization would function on even in Ghana? Secondly the interoperability aspect of digitalization would not be possible because failure of Ghana Card to function on the global network system reduces the Ghana Card to local systems bringing no value to the presumed use of Ghana Card as a travel document if foreign system cannot validate or authenticate any Ghana Card.

Internet interruption in Ghana and some African and European countries are caused by fiber cables.
Bawumia (Akufo-Addo government) has not built any internet cables. Rather some "applications (i.e the GPS, and NIA card apps)."
This has rather vindicated the previous government, who laid the cables from the south to the north of Ghana. It tells that without fiber cables (the foundation) the applications like the bragging NIA card, GPS applications won't work!
It's unfortunate, even most of so learned with titles in Ghana are shallow in analyzing and thinking!!!!
