If between 2023 and 2024 270 million dollars in arrears what of monies spent between 2017 and 2023? Always blaming the past government for Debts when NDC left the country in a worse state.

Turn the military into productive institution. Farming, engineering, material production, construction etc... No just wasting of Ghana taxes. I used to be a soldier myself and things have to change. I remember a guy being sacked from the training center bcos of academic certification meanwhile he was an experienced tailor who could have been very productive.

This military must also involve in farming as Burkina fasso instead of beating People on our street. The military must have their own farms to feed themselfs. Theyre waist of tax payers money.

I think things are changing and we have to use their skills. How they put up the infectious center for COVID treatment. There are a lot of technocrats at the barracks.

Good Afternoon Hon.Defence Minister,Dr.Omane Boamah and Deputy Defence Minister,

1.
I believe it will be nice you conduct and investigation into this Ghc270m debt,not just paying. It's good to pay alright, but you need to conduct a serious investigation as to why this debt occurred and why.Who are those engaged for this services.

2.
I believe,Ghana, with this Big Land Mass,we have in the Country, the Military should engage in Plantations to feed themselves and also sell the remaining to our local market and international market to earn some foreign currency.

The Military can recruit able young men and women,infact all those who are able into what can be known as Army Reserve Unit(ARU), purposely for Agriculture-Food crop production and Export crops production.

This Unit will be use to do Farming only for food crops production-Maize,Rice,Millet, Onion, Tomatoes, Pepper, Okro,garden eggs and so on,
Animal farming-Goat,sheep and Cattle,also fishing,and also for Export crops like Coffee, Cocoa, Shea butter,Palmnut,Cotton and so on.

3.
This information can equally same go to the Police Services, Prison services, Immigrations service and Customs services,also Forestry Commission and Fire Services.(Police Reserve Unit,Prison Reserve Unit,Immigration Reserve Unit and Customs Reserve Unit,Fire Services Reserve Unit,ForestryCommission Reserve Unit - Purposely for Farming).

We will get the following :
Military Farms
Police Farms
Prison Farms
Immigration Farms
Customs Farms
Forestry commission Farms,
Fire Services Farms
Forestry Commission Farms
and so on.

All these institutions must also engage in Farming, to atleast support in their food needs and if they can, also engage in export crops fine.

All these will help to solve the many challenges we have in the Country-Ghana at the moment,provide affordable food,pay all the workers engaged and also make money for the Country.

PLANTATION; PLANTATION ; PLANTATION.
Farming on a large Scale.
Ghana needs Hectors of Farm Lands.

Maize Plantation
Millet Plantation
Rice Plantation
Tomatoes Plantation
Onion Plantation
Pepper Plantation
Garden eggs and Okro Plantation
Cotton Plantation
Cocoa Plantation
Coffees Plantation
Shea butter tree Plantation
Sugar cane Plantation
Poultry Farms on large Scale
(Birds,Guinea fowls,Ducks) and so on.
Fish farming on large Scale
Goats and Sheep Farms on large Scale
Cattle Farms on large Scale and so on.

Thanks.
Kosh.

I just don't understand why government always consume but fail to pay suppliers yet quick tp chase people over taxes.

I believe if government does the right thing by paying suppliers including road contractors, utility services and all others, the economy will flourish like never before.

It makes no sense not to pay for services. Heads of such institutions must be dismissed and made to account for it.

A system must be in place for payment within latest three months after delivery of goods and services to help employers expand by employing. more.

This is common sense. The courts must sit up and do the right thing by paying their bills on time and quickly work on behalf of contractors and suppliers to help receive payment in the shortest time possible.
