Who say there is no money? Just pay them as per their term of contract. Can we put football over education and health? Only in Ghana? Pay them but make sure they buy the books and do researches and come out with findings.

As the days go by more and more people wake up to the reality of the ndc anti Akan hate agenda and their deep rooted corrupt dark souls of evil .This was first initiated by the Ewes and through Mahama and his brothers being championed today by the northerners. We see in Iraq/Syria the announce of the Islamic caliphate state and their map which now includes Ghana and the whole of West Africa .Most people are ignorant of the fact that unlike in Christianity and other religions whereby the leaders or priests are men of peace in Islam their imams or priests advocate for war and destruction of the non believers and when war starts every single one of them assumes the title emir and becomes the captain of a murderous horde as we saw in Libya and with the boko haram. The mosque is not only a place of worship but an army fortress or barracks and that is why they must in the design in every area which is not predominately Muslim its required to have a tall reconnaissance tower. we see in Accra and other places these mosques spring up all over the place at militarily very strategic positions but we are vigilant and when our bloody revolution starts we will raze all these structures to the ground and drive out this menace from our midst . There are some brainwashed idiotic fools who still believe mahama has good intentions but don't know he is a Muslim disguised as a christian which Islam allows and his only agenda is to weaken with corruption and destroy with negligence the Akan economy so the caliphate can be achieved that is why no project of strategic importance can see the light of day under his watch.As for the Ewes his partners in crime all i can say is have you ever wondered why when you go to Togo there the Ewes are very nice people and true African brothers but the moment you cross the Aflao border into Ghana the ayigbe wickedness , hate and evil starts? The ewes in Togo know these ayigbe are so bad and useless that they are not interested in reuniting with them but would rather throw them all into the sea. We should find a way to trick them into taking them back as we Akans will definitely be better off without this foolish idiotic people. Mahama and his brothers have stolen so much that even the bank of Ghana admits they dont know where our foreign reserves have disappeared to , i can tell you where , Turkey , Iran, Dubai and other Muslim countries where its safe for them. Congrats to Kumasi for hitting the nail on the head and exposing the discrimination and abuse of the civil/human rights with the WHAT HAVE WE DONE TO YOU demonstration , today we see idiots and saboteurs trying turn it into a question of mere economics , even one idiot woman came out with a humiliating brainless idea to go naked just to deflect from the main core issue of discrimination against the Akans. My people we have only one problem and if that's solved the rest will be easy , the problem is discrimination and the Anti Akan agenda of part of this mafia ndc . its never about npp , ndc ,left or right wing ideology politics but simply pepeni/ayigbe tribalism against Akan nationalist evolution. They are only attracted to ideas that only destroy our economy like this EPA paramount foolishness with the Europeans or giving away our gold fields to foreigners who never invest here in the name of prudent business , end result our people are exploited and made poorer. we shall never surrender or be fooled again. While we were thinking of a better Ghana for ALL citizens they were thinking of only themselves and destroying the future for our children . We need to have our revolution and secede to form our own state as they will never change.

This might be legal but it is definitely immoral. Receive Salary for months without working? How can our Nation move forwards if teachers who develop brain go indefinite strike with pay?

Isaac what should be asking are:
How can the govt allow the economy to run down so quickly?
How can some half wits in parliament be receiving so much pay for doing absolutely nothing
How can doctors, teachers, public servants, etc.., go for months without getting paid?
How can the price of petrol go up every few months?
How can we be paying judgement debts at a rate as if it was going out of fashion?
How can the gap between the rich and poor be widening by the day?
How can we be where we are >50 years after independence?
These are some of the questions you should be asking.
My nephew is a student in one of the tertiary institutions and he tells me of the severe challenges some of the lecturers have to go through.
Don't start talking about morality when the people who make the laws and are in power go about with impunity.
Don't teachers have to eat as well?
Don't they have families and responsibilities to take care of?

Think Tank, you have asked many questions, beneath your question is the fact that Ghanaians expect the Government to virtually spoon feed them.
I have sympathy for those in the Public sector; things should not be that way. I was once a Teacher in Ghana and I can understand what you are saying. My sister is still a Teacher in Ghana and I feel her pain, her pain is my pain too!
Generally I believe Teachers deserve better but the demands for research allowances is a bunch of bull unless they are able to show Ghana what they have done so far.
Solution is for the Government to privatize most of the schools particularly the Tertiary institutions and let us see the Teachers and Lecturers making such foolish demand for research funds from their Board of Directors and Administrations!
Now the Government should privatize most of the Government runs Hospitals and let the Medical Doctors deal with their Private Owners!
As for those in Parliament, I will leave things the way you put it. Morality is bankrupt!

One sunny day a rabbit came out of her hole in the ground to enjoy the fine weather. The day was so nice that she became careless and a fox sneaked up behind her and caught her.
"I am going to eat you for lunch!", said the fox.
"Wait!", replied the rabbit, "You should at least wait a few days."
"Oh yeah? Why should I wait?"
"Well, I am just finishing my thesis on 'The Superiority of Rabbits over Foxes and Wolves.'"
"Are you crazy? I should eat you right now! Everybody knows that a fox will always win over a rabbit."
"Not really, not according to my research. If you like, you can come into my hole and read it for yourself. If you are not convinced, you can go ahead and have me for lunch."
"You really are crazy!" But since the fox was curious and had nothing to lose, it went with the rabbit. The fox never came out. A few days later the rabbit was again taking a break from writing and sure enough, a wolf came out of the bushes and was ready to set upon her.
"Wait!" yelled the rabbit, "you can't eat me right now."
"And why might that be, my furry appetizer?"
"I am almost finished writing my thesis on 'The Superiority of Rabbits over Foxes and Wolves.'"
The wolf laughed so hard that it almost lost its grip on the rabbit. "Maybe I shouldn't eat you. You really are sick...in the head. You might have something contagious."
"Come and read it for yourself. You can eat me afterward if you disagree with my conclusions."
So the wolf went down into the rabbit's hole...and never came out. The rabbit finished her thesis and was out celebrating in the local lettuce patch. Another rabbit came along and asked, "What's up? You seem very happy."
"Yup, I just finished my thesis."
"Congratulations. What's it about?"
"'The Superiority of Rabbits over Foxes and Wolves.'"
"Are you sure? That doesn't sound right."
"Oh yes. Come and read it for yourself."
So together they went down into the rabbit's hole. As they entered, the friend saw the typical graduate student abode, albeit a rather messy one after writing a thesis. The computer with the controversial work was in one corner. To the right there was a pile of fox bones, to the left a pile of wolf bones. And in the middle was a large, well fed lion.
The moral of the story: The title of your thesis doesn't matter.
The subject doesn't matter.
The research doesn't matter.
All that matters is who your adviser is.

Mahama wants to withdraw these pittances whilst he and his appointees are getting ESB 80,000 cedis every 4 years apart from their SSSS 10,000 cedis every month.
Bagbin, ET MEnsah etc have got ESB 5 times since 1992 as MPs. (5 x 80,000=400,000)
Mahama must withdraw the allowances of his useless appointees and military/police first.
Otherwise it is an insult for him to want to withdraw POTAG/UTAG/TEWU allowances
