GHANA HAS BEEN RAPED BY NDC IDIOTS. WE DO NOT NEED ANY NATIONAL ECONOMIC FORUM, WE NEED A NATIONAL COURT OF JURISDICTION TO PUT MAHAMA AND HIS CABINET ON TRIAL. GHANA'S HOPELESS ECONOMIC SITUATION, TODAY, IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. NDC HAS OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS PRESIDED OVER THE BIGGEST RESOURCES IN OUR HISTORY INCLUDING CRUDE OIL & STEALTH TAXES. THEY HAVE ALSO CONTRACTED THE BIGGEST LOANS IN OUR HISTORY. IF THEY HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW FOR THIS AND THE ECONOMY IS IN SHAMBLES, THEN,THEY MUST BE PROSECUTED. THEY MUST GIVE THE MONEYS BACK TO THE TREASURY. WE DO NOT NEED ANY ECONOMIC FORUM. SET UP A COURT IMMEDIATELY. IT HAPPENED IN THAILAND RECENTLY, PRIME MINISTER YINGLUCK SHINAWATRA WAS REMOVED BY THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT FOR ABUSING POWER. LOOK AT GHANA;-- EMBRAER PLANE SCANDAL, STX KOREA,NDC US$20 MILLION PARTY HQ., US$4 MILLION DODGY JUDGEMENT DEBT TO MRS RAWLINGS AND HER COMPANY, SUBAH, GYEEDA, WOYOMI, ISOFOTON, WATERVILLE, AFRICA AUTOMOBILE, CP, SADA, FORTIZ/MERCHANT BANK,FREE EXPENSIVE CARS FOR CHIEFS, AKONFEM AND A HOST OF OTHER DODGY JUDGEMENT DEBT PAYMENTS. BUYING VOTES WITH CASH, LAND CRUISERS & LAPTOPS JUST TO WIN ELECTIONS. WHY NDC?????? WHY??? OUR SUPREME COURT COULD NOT HELP BUT DESCRIBED IT AS "ALLIANCE TO CREATE, LOOT AND SHARE" WHAT A SHAME? ?? AND YOU CALLING GHANAIANS TO A WASTEFUL ECONOMIC FORUM. NDC, THE MONEY IS WITH YOU, GIVE IT BACK TO GHANA. NPP, I SALUTE YOUR COURAGE FOR NOT ATTENDING. NPP REMAIN SMART AND VIGILANT!!!!!

I am excited with this idea of Jerry taking up the chairmanship. Indeed he will infuse the needed impetus into the NDC. In fact his father figure presence and his day to day involvement in the activities of the party will see some decency and purposefulness in the party instead of the present situation where the party seem to have nobody to put members in check. Mahama has been an extreme disappointment with his soft soft approach which is making persons who are real outsiders to hijack the party and use it for their own ends. Rake the case of somebody like Prosper Bani. This man has never been a known NDC member. What he does is simply to put an NDC muffler round his neck when it is an NDC activity which is being attended by his friend the President at which he is present. NDC, please get Papa J to the chairmanship and I can assure you the bleak picture that the NPP has carved of Ghana in the minds of Ghanaians will be completely obfuscated.

As for the argument about re-denomination coming from the camp of the NDC and their allies like Bernard Mornah l'll say these arguments are from little brains, lazy minds that don't think. They prefer to see the old ways of carrying bulk monies around which get attracted by armed robbers and not safe for business because they have no interest in creating businesses of their own. They orefer to move from radio station to radio station and talk and just depend on government. If they truly think nocking off zeros from the cedi is the reason for this hopeless economy then the solution is easy, the government should just start adding the zeros to any new currency printed, and gradually face out the ones with less zeros. Useless minds turning themselves into selfish opinion leaders.

Rawlings supervised corruption at its highest level. Let him uncloak himself from the immunity mantle he is wearing and offer himself up for trial and then he can consider such a foolish suggestion. The revelations that will ensue will confirm that he is equally corrupt and that he will only become a liability to the ndc. He is too smart to even consider this foolish idea. Allow Rawlings to enjoy his wealth in peace. If Rawlings tells us how he financed his children through the expensive western education system, I will vote for him

President Kufour made us believe that if we took some of the zeros off our denomination, it will make our cedi become as strong as the dollar. He redenominated our cedi to the extent that the the one pesewa coin was easily swallowed by innocent toddlers. How many persons are using the one pesewa coin today. We were mislead into thinking that it was good to have small number of notes on us. Today we are all worse off and yet we delude ourselves with the thinking that it is better to still keep smaller amount of notes. Keep on basking in your ignorance

Nonsense to the core. Who is Jerry Rawlings? And what does he know about macro economics? What NDC supporters must understand is that Jerry Rawlings becoming a Head of State in Ghana for 19years was an accident of History.
Those days are gone when people feared him because of his murderous tendencies, and the fact that he had armed his cadres and loyal soldiers to the teeth, and could do anything and go scot free. Things have changed, and this country will never allow itself to be governed by people like Rawlings suffering from mental dementia.
One thing is clear, Jerry Rawlings is enjoying all the privileges of a former Head of State, and if he agrees to contest for the position of Chairman of the NDC, then those privileges, including his current residence must be given back to the state. Fine, if the NDC is in power, they may decide to overlook it, but if a new party comes to power, Rawlings will lose all the privileges, and be forcefully be evicted from his residence. This will surely come to pass.
Ghanaians must be serious,because I can vouchsafe that John Mahama is more knowledgeable than Jerry Rawlings in as far as managing the economy is concerned. The difference is that Jerry had intellectuals to help his Junta and during his constitutional rule, whiles John Mahama hasn't got the confidence to work with intellectuals, but flirting with school boys in politics.
The economic challenges facing Ghana today as a result of incompetence of the NDC government should not be trivialized by any political party. It was Jerry Rawlings' back economic policies that compelled JAK to apply for HIPC in 2000 to save this country and usher it to middle income status in 2008. The NDC government coming into power in 2009, has mismanaged all the good things initiated and sustained under JAK administration, and indications are that the next government after John Mahama administration would have to apply for HIPC status again to salvage this country from total collapse.
Our salvation is not in the hands of Jerry Rawlings, who couldn't even pass his promotion examination in the Army before imposing himself on Ghanaians in 1979/81 out of frustration. For those who know jerry well, he is a spendthrift, and would like to depend on state resources for his survival because he has no business acumen. He is also very tribalistic and vindictive, and above all, very envious of the successes of hard working people who are not from his party and tribe.
We need to move forward as a country, and forget about yesterday people like Jerry Rawlings and his cohorts.

Rawlings doesn't understand most of the things he talks about a lot of the time.
I can say with the greatest confidence that the denomination of a country's currency has nothing to do with its value.It is for the sole purpose of convenience that a currency is denominated.As an illustration,it is easy to transport a $100.00 bill than it is one hundred dollars in single bills.Whether one has one $100.00 bill or one hundred single dollar bills,the amount of goods and services that the money can buy remains the same.
The value is determined by the interaction of supply and demand.The price for exchanging one currency for the other is the EXCHANGE RATE.
Since currencies are used as media of exchange,stores of value,etc(all economic activities),the nature of one's economy, and of course political stability and indexation,affects the volatility of the currency.That is, a strong economy will inspire confidence in a currency which will in turn lead to its acquisition/purchase for investment activities.Thereby, creating demand for the currency.This will strengthen the currency.
To illustrate with the USD/GHC situation,the USD is the Primary Currency, whilst the GHC is the Secondary Currency.A quote of $1.00/GHC2.00 is a good example.
When the GHC strengthens,relative to the USD, as a result of a strong economy(Low inflation,low unemployment,low debt/GDP ratio,surplus trade balance,high standard of living,high foreign exchange reserves and investments,high GDP growth rate,a strong financial system,budget surplus,high production and consumption of goods and services),the exchange rate can be $1.00/GHC1.50.Few GHC is now exchanged for the same unit of the primary currency(USD).
In the same vain,when the economy is ailing,the GHC will depreciate/weaken against the USD(reduced demand,currency damping).The currency cannot perform its traditional functions as a store of value,a unit of account,a measure of value,a medium of exchange efficiently.Meaning that more GHC will be required in exchange for the same amount of the Primary Currency.$1.00/GHC3.66 for instance.
The Primary Currency maintains its unit always.The fluctuation is depicted by changes in the value of the Secondary Currency(GHC).
Whilst the Bank of Ghana can easily print more GHC when the need arises,it cannot print more USD.The Federal Reserve Bank prints the USD.
The USD MUST be generated through:
(a)International trade(exports)
(b)Foreign grants in cash
(c)Tourism
(d)Foreign loans(bond issues,IMF/World Bank,Bank Syndicates)
(e)Incoming cash investments(foreign direct transfers)
(f)Diaspora remittances to relatives in Ghana(an advantage of brain drain).
The GHC was comparatively stable during the presidencies of JAK and Prof.Mills because Ghana's economy was buoyant.I recall a single digit inflation during those times of past glory.The prices of cocoa and gold had mercy on Ghana.Ghana was the fastest growing economy in the world,according to the IMF.
The economic indices inherited by John Mahama have slipped into a coma.The cogent reason the GHC is shedding daily tears.Not John Mahama,Seth Terkper or Dr.Kofi Wampah can offer her their sympathies.They are adamant and blinded to her pleadings and tears and are wallowing in tries and errors.The latest being a bond issue and an expectation of the upward adjustment of the prices of cocoa and gold.A merely speculative venture.
The GHC needs a more permanent solution than a one-time issue of a bond.Our best bet will be an aggressive hunt for USD from non-traditional exports,tourism?
The prices of cocoa and gold will rally in our favor eventually.But they do not happen spontaneously.The upward adjustment will be painful and sluggish.The GHC would have suffered a great deal in waiting for the upward trending.
So the hollow argument of attributing the plight of the GHC to its past denomination does not hold any water,in my humble opinion.
Ghana should seriously mobilize every opportunity to export more as our exports have become cheaper.
The growth of the US economy will by itself produce a strong USD which will destabilize the GHC.And so will an over-valued GHC(it will adjust to its true rate).The only consolation for the GHC is that the FED is also concerned about an overvalued USD which will make US exports expensive and lead to reduced export revenues.
If the JAK administration is being accused of OVERVALUATION of the GHC relative to the USD,then that is a different dialogue/discussion.But i will not buy that.The panicked and confused John Mahama economy is the culprit.
Once again,until the tooth picks and hot dogs and the innumerable irrelevant imports are curtailed,some seriousness introduced into our import program and the quest for sustainable exports for continuous flow of foreign earnings(through diversification of our exports and markets)are embarked upon,the GHC will continue to be branded the worst performing currency.
I expect the Bank of Ghana to be more serious is its struggle to stabilize the GHC.In this regard,the Bank should
(1)Retain a sizable amount of export proceeds,an 80/20 split.BoG 80% USD,GHC equivalent paid to exporter.20% exporter USD can be kept in Ghana or Utopia,with a preference for a bank in Ghana.
(2)Impose severe monetary penalties for failure to repatriate export proceeds or on time.
(3)Coordinate its monetary policy on the Forex market with the government's fiscal policies
(4)Pay attention to the US economic news.
To John Mahama.It is an open secret that Ghana is broke.Our debt/GDP ratio tells it all.It is time to be honest with Ghanaians and go to the IMF/world Bank for a bail out.

Rawlings should be given governance lessons and reschool himself and the criminal political party he founded under duress on Ghanaians, and started do house cleansing exercise in NDC and Mahama cohorts and stop always trying to put the blame on Kuffour and the prevous NPP administration. Jerry Rawlings should not think that Ghanaian electorate are shallow minded as he think and that he could always put wool in our eyes. Jerry Rawlings use his so-call revolution to rape GHANA of our moral fabric and values and replace it with what became as TOTAL TRIBALISM, CRONISM, CORRUPTION, and GHANAIAN ANIMAL FARM politics propounded by Jerry Rawlings and his so-call revolutionary calbrals, where respect for the elderly was erroded and replaced by vogabands in the name of so-call revolution which came to destroy the fabric of nation building and replace it with total anarchy. Rawlings ruled Ghana with anarchical regime and silence the very people he claimed to rescure blutal force and impunity. Society and Ghanaian co-existence where tribal sentiment was taboo in pre-Rawlings Ghana was replaced by Ghanaian against Ghanaian, northern Ghanaian against southern Ghanaian, Ewe aainst Ashanti or Akan, Ga against Akan. GHANA is fully awake and strong against any element or group of anti-nation building that we shall fight for ONE GHANA WITH ONE DESTINY

Party's ideology is meant to stay as the main core principles the party stood for. Rawlings is human and may one day be gone for ever. NDC should therefore be able to function very well without the founder of the party because of its core principles the party stood for. NDC at its 35 years of existence should be strong and ready to function and govern well with Rawlings. Basically its like a child who at 35yrs can't be on his/her own without the support of parents. This is sad and will strongly advise JJ to stop getting himself into it because its too late to resurrect the NDC party and any adverse effect against the party thereafter will tarnish his reputation.

Mr Kuffour's Cedi redenomination was good and never forms the basis of the current Ghana economic woes.-- The value is the SAME
Mr Kuffour only did away with the last four zeroes only to establish the GHcedis. Doing away with the last two zeroes left the new amount in new Pesewas.
Mr Rawlings currency of the old cedis has a minimum goods value in the five thousand Old Cedis (C5ooo/5pgh)which could only buy satchet water, sweet, peanut, Banana, etc.
The value is the same in the new Mr Kuffour's Cedis currency exchange. The five pesewa (5p)/(C5000)had the same purchasing power, buying: peanut banana, satchet water, sweet, etc
The main good reasons for the portable value of the Mr Kuffour's new currency exchange are:
1. So many people lost the Cedi Millioniar title.
2. Psychologically, armed robbery rate dropped as Gh100 lost the attraction of C1million
3. Monetary calculation was in face with the schools involving decimal currency arithematic
4. Carrying money about was handy and easy

Panic and confusion in NPP
Is this a feature article by Bature or what?
Very lazy and cheap journalism. Write anything to sell newspaper. No standard no truth nothing worthy in this story. Just crap.
how come this bastard i fully supported grow so silent on his wife's judgement debt receipt among others.....? woe if he becomes chairman.
Who will listen JJ. All the problems the country is going through now started with Him and his second coming. I think he should shut up. I like Mahama but I hate JJ for all the things he has done in the past.
JJ you're welcome back to turn things around on the greedy bastards.God bless your ideas
This fool should not be given any platform at all in Ghana. He is a disgrace to the country.
If NDC don't respect Rawlings now then it will be worse if he become the party chairman. We are not in a military regime and any insults will come from any where
I see nothing wrong if the NDC allows JJ to lead his own party. What all must know is that JJ is not Ghana so if he leads the party or not, this cannot change the minds of the people of Ghana.
NDC IN WHATEVER SHAPE OR FORM IS THE SHADOW OF JJ RAWLING AND HIS CO-HORTS. HE IS A THIEF HIMSELF. WHAT CAN HE DO FOR GHANA??? CHEAP TALK!!!
We all miss u papa jay
jj must be N D C chariman
Let him come n commit political suicide here as his wife did, who really care?
Hahahahaah
jj must be N D C chariman,people have eyes to see but they are bland nature
Please please come back
We miss u jj
Cowards why are they scared.
This is a second coming of JESUS .So NPP ready for hill
JJ is coming back.So every person shold focus on his/her party affairs rather than insulting.NPP shame !!!
This will be a great move and an historic one. If he does go for the pisition, it is a win for ND C and Ghana! Lets see if the nonsense now in Ghana continues
This liar has conned many Ghanaians especially the NDC FOLD that he is saint whilst he is lucifer incarnate inside. He should tell Ghanaians where he and his family got their wealth from.
IS IT GREEDENESS OR WICKDNESS KILLING PEOPLE NO BODY TALK ABOUT COMMING AGAIN?
Akuffo Addui, bye bye oooo
Oh so JJ is alive?
Bringing JJ as party chairman would be the best news NPP would have wished for. That bastard thinks he is beloved in Ghana so much. Thank God we are not in military dictatorship any more.
jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj ...

With JJ as a chairman the NDC will regain its credibility and rule the country for social justice and economic developement which the country badly needs at the moment.
I do not believe Ghanian Papers anymore, because the journalism in Ghana is full of lies, and cooked stories. They are just like sycopts.
If it is really true that JJ wants to compete for the Chairmanship of the Party, he ...

This is a joke.
We are declaring war on democracy ?
HOW CAN YOU A FOUNDER COME LOW TO BE A CHAIRMAN ? IS THIS YOU OWN WISH OR SOME ELSE ?
Party's ideology is meant to stay as the main core principles the party stood for. Rawlings is human and may one day be gone for ever. NDC should therefore be able to function very well without the founder of the party becaus ...

He must answer to Ghanians the source of corruption that is rampant in the government, and his crop of politicians who have held office in the country in the last 30yrs. Not the current administration only, but the (P)NDC coh ...

To undermine and sabotage Mahama? A manipulative psychopath who can never play second fiddle to anyone. Mahama would have to take leave of his senses to allow someone like Rawlings to come very close to him. Why give Rawlings ...
