simple but different. Development Mโgt & Policy Expert. A Senior Lecturer, Researcher, public mโgt and local govโt. call me a fake PhD if you disagree with me๐
As a researcher, I think the research community owe Ghanaians the details of previously state acquire lands from the 1st to 4th Republic.This year, one of my research areas will be on Political Intrapreneurship & State acquire Lands between 1957-2022:Achimota Forest As a Baseline
After 5 years of PhD and 4 years in academia, I have been promoted to the rank of Senior Lecturer in Public Administration ๐ it has been God ๐. It's official
The difference is clear! I have never liked his rap anyway. All his raps are about women being prostitutes which puts me off. We believed your story sis simple ๐. Girl ๐ go high
Insults wont work michael. Respect womanhood , Im happy the world gets to see how you are playing this and the real you. Young women get to learn from this. You would get the applause for a rap.still doesnโt change the TRUTH.
Very low of him anyway. This is flop rap and it tells us that apart from his insulting rap he doesn't have any lyrical content. An overhyped rapper. Listen to Shaggy and others to learn. This was an opportunity to show his critics that he has a career
The kind of partner you get involved with is a depiction of who you are..you made a song to tell us that she is a โwhoreโ so we dismiss her account and believe yours? Rubbish!..if she was all the things you said, why did you get involved with her?
Come to think that an entry-level basic salary for a lecturer who holds a Ph.D. is GHS2999 ( my first year basic is an insult to that degree. Not to even talk about the workload. And after 3yrs my salary is not yet GHS4000. Mtcheeww. Academic footsoldiers abre ๐ค
A hotel that was operational in 2019 can buy 6 SSNIT hotels that are aged between 20-30 years and be described as "strategic partner"? Has anyone sighted financial statements of ROCK CITY HOTEL for the 4 years they've been in operations? We need to get serious in this country.
Yes, if we can share COVID-19 funds like tofee or dredge Odawna for $45m, why not this one. Or even worse scenario dug a pit for $400M, why not use our taxes to pay for 1st years. It's better to use my taxes for this than use it to enrich family &friends.
Do you think
@JDMahama
โs promise to provide tuition-free education for first-year students in public universities is feasible?
Is it what we really need?

Such mindsets. The president is not a sovereign. The sovereignty of Ghana rests with the people. If the people who placed him there are now his foes then it means he has overstayed his welcome. We have had presidents before him, at no point did they carry chairs around.
This country is funny. We sat here for our president to use $400M to dug a pit yet have the strength to say 1st year fees have no fiscal space? Huh, or for a minister of education to procure $250 per ipad for these same students, then cry that we don't have the funds.
In politics, election rigging isn't about ballot padding. It also means presenting an โopposition candidateโ backdoor to appear similar to the โoriginal opponentโ ๐ ๐. However, this can backfire.
How do you pay $50k for a BSc in Public Administration abroad when the course is offered in your best universities? The problem is not only a political one but a wisdom problem, too.
A Minister who can amass such wealth within a short time, and if you have people whose earnings can't take them to the next month to justify it, then there's a problem. We don't only have thieves to deal with but their enablers
This whole country is a crime scene. A simple case involving a Chinese woman, and we are not sure of whether she was deported or whatever. People are sleeping on the job.
Even this card can't buy koobi. If your alternative policy is for us to use the Ghana Card to buy cars, I suggest you say โOne Citizen, One Carโ (OCOC). This is a better idea. We donโt want to wake up one day, only for you to say the card is now a key to heavenโs gate.
Reading thro the reaction
@metrotvgh
reminded me of how a grp of NPP footsoldiers I was teaching on PT went to ask 4 my removal from the course coz I wasn't praise-singing their tune in class on PDS, District elections. What they didn't know was that the university needed me
So all these years, the Ministry of Health has been charging students for interviews after theyโve purchased forms? What kind of system is that? If you canโt manage interviews from the sale of forms, you donโt conduct one. Thatโs profiteering at the expense of the vulnerable
Ghana's cedi has earned the last position. And yet we are told that our FM has performed his duties extraordinaire! I couldn't agree more with the president because for the very first time in the 4th Republic we have a junk currency
Nonetheless, after 6 years of implementing a new curriculum in JHS, our kids are writing exams without a textbook. This is how far political games can go. Keep on playing.
If this is how we build a case against someone, we're all in trouble. Today, it's Ato Forson, but tomorrow it could be anyone. No one is immune. A good judicial system would prioritize judicial integrity by holding the Attorney General accountable.
So the 'managerial coup' that took place at SSNIT was because of this 'setting'? It's such a bad deal. How can a government sell 60% stake of state investments to itself? That's bad governance. ILO was right. How can you upload the majority stake to yourself?
Instead of introducing more taxes especially e-transactions, cut the size of the government. Govโt needs to trim itself not the citizens -We need lean government not lean citizens

The cedi is second but last. Sri Lanka is last though lol. But we're listening to big grammar. Profess real-time solutions and stop lectures. Enough of classroom economics. Inflation is all-time high and the cedi is high on โfree fallโ wee.

This is just the "tip of the iceberg". The most intriguing aspect is the scholarship secretariat's brazen request for money from those for whom the scholarship was established.
Scholarships Bonanza: Dr Dennis Addo, Freddie Blay & former IGPโs daughters among those who grabbed scholarships for the needy.

Childish Tantrums!! Never let the kid in you destroy the king in you โฆ Whoever sleeps with a woman get her pregnant and donโt own up as man and goes about labeling her โWhoreโ is the dumbest asshole ever .. She was a โWhoreโ yet you shagged her unprotected got her pregnant!! God
This response is faceless and lacks authority. Anyone can write this and post it here. We need to identify this piece! how do we refer to it? Whatโs the source of the response? Who is speaking in the response? I am waiting for the same energy you use for Prof FMโs report on this
Whether we like it or not, Nkrumah is the only leader who saw and wrote about all we need to develop today. His plans are recycled by those who came after him&still are
I have this conspiracy theory that E-levy will become mandatory for all government services above GHS100. Technically whether you like it or not once it's passed all payments will be made through momo. We did it with the Ghana Card & I have a strong feeling this will go down too
I have a lot of work to complete and my hair needs a new style. What should I do? Leave the work or go for a new hairstyle? Charlie women are suffering. Being a woman is difficult. Our fears are fearlessly many. Society expects too much from us. ๐
Mills was accused of turning the castle into a praying Castle. So I knew straight away, such people weren't voices of dissent. Now they are accepting of the killing of citizens who only wanted their votes counted. If God is just, I want his anger
If the letter came from the office of the IGP, it's too substandard. The tone and choice of words shouldn't come from an institution paid with our taxes. Granted he has said things that touch on breach of diplomatic relations, the sarcasm was not necessary.
Dennis Miracle is always listening to himself alone. That's not communication. He won't listen to Evans Mensah eiii. He comes to make his own commentary

This country errh!! We are broke but we can show off money in a by-election. Simply put individuals are now richer than the country. IMF should go to Kumawu and see why $3b won't do anything
@IMFNews
We are celebrating a man who put down on paper whatever he wanted to do before doing it. A president who translated theoretical knowledge into practice. He was a leader because not all we have had are.
#Nkrumahliveson
He's and will always be. He's not only known in Ghana but he's a world figure. No revisionist about his role in this country will change anything. His legacy and work are more enduring. We can't change what is ๐โ๏ธ
Extreme poverty as defined by WB refers to a proportion of the population earning less than $1.90 a day. Meanwhile, a tripartite committee negotiated for GHS14.88 as the 2023 minimum wage. Noting that wages have been eroded due to inflation

.4. We are screwed
Hypocrisy is a bane in this country. Let's even look at the other side: We deny a lot of people from entering tertiary institutions because they had D7 in English but we are accepting of a would-be minister who can't speak the former but made that policy? How dishonest can we be?
Only in Ghana that we've experts who haven't authored a single paper or groundbreaking invention in their area of expertise lol. Interestingly,they get all the contracts while the real experts who've researched continue to do yes Sir yes Sir.Anyway we all dey inside. Net effect?

You obviously don't understand learning. Lyrical Content doesn't need to be in the same genre before you emulate it. You guys can bleed because it's allowed ๐. I hold a PhD in bleeding control
Objectivity is someoneโs perspective that others accept as fact. Embedded in objectivity are personal biases. It's objective because it's the received view. Anything objective is not necessarily the โtruthโ coz the truth is distinctive from facts coz it has no alternatives
Domelovo's case reminds me of mine own. I left for PhD studies in 2015 with a Study Leave without pay. I returned to Ghana in 2018, and I applied to be reinstated in June 2018, up to date I am still waiting for a reply from the LGS council. This country, I have long given up
They are rewriting the Constitution to their convenience. Anyway, I do understand her because she was part of the 7 Justices who rule against the eligibility of the birth certificate being a primary document used for citizenship claims. NMH we view it, BC is solid
Ghana people, it doesn't matter how much judicial eminence is used to obscure this simple fact, in Ghana:
A) one can obtain citizenship if either parent is Ghanaian.
B) Birth Certs indicate whether or not either parent is Ghanaian.
C) Ergo, a birth cert is PROOF of citizenship.
@lordcudjoe
Someone asked me the same question and I told the person that NDC is not paid with my taxes but the EC does and I will demand accountability from public institutions. I don't know where they had their education anyway
When Prez Mills wanted CHPS Compounds 4 rural communities, he asked his appointees 2 contribute & Prez Mahama continued 2 do so 4 our health sector with his appointees contributing part of their salary. Prez Addo says we should contribute 2 build his pledge 2 God?๐คฆโโ๏ธ ๐ค
Monday I was in Bekwai Municipality. And I realised only two Banks (GCB& ADB) were there and the rest are rural banks. What was visible was Momo Vendors? We need to make our municipal assemblies real municipalities. The place didn't have the facilities of a Municipality

The drama is not ending anytime soon lol. You borrowed $170m to set up a bank but now you have to use it to pay a judgment debt lol. The man who cursed us is strong indeed.
It is funny how we reasoned in these streets. Saying I am lying about my own basic pay tells the level of ignorance we have in this country about the payment system. Basic salary for me after 3 years is 3800 and coins as a full-time lecturer. We survive through academic galamsey
It's not tax that gives us the right to demand accountability, Sir. It is because the relationship between you and us is that of a principal-agent one. We are citizens and we've given you our stake to manage

I am celebrating 4 years after a PhD journey. I achieved a 4.0 FGPA
@PhD
something I couldnโt do at
@MPhil
(3.92 CGPA)
@BA
(3.86 FGPA), I finally nailed it at this level ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ. I am not doing bad as an academic and researcher too . Praise him praise๐ฅฐ๐ฅ.
Journalism is now so cheap in this country. Anyone with social media followers is a journalist, errh! Years ago, I wanted to be a journalist after SSS. I met a guy in Bolga who came from Accra & said he could get the GIJ form & I gave him the money. I never got the form ๐.
Being smart & intelligent is class.His hatred for IGP Dampare is indeed huge. At all costs, the IGP must be โfingeredโeii. This man rose to the highest rank in the Police.Our Public Service is full of bad precedents. Indeed when you tell a lie, you must tell a thousand more lies
Historical revisionism! August 4th has no historical facts. You can revise it for the remaining 5 months. Revisionist history can be likened to alternative history if there's any. Alternative facts are not facts but conspiracies. No revisionist history has been successful.
Which track record lol! You have always had it wrong. You did the same thing in 2016. Sometimes I wonder what your sampling adequacy is. In the social world, we use โmayโ โlikelyโ etc to avoid failed predictions
Ignorance is a calling and a lot called into politics. How could you decide to allow the military into Parliament? They don't read critical political literature, they just use shenanigans to administer. Learn how countries went into military rule. Huh๐๐๐
Whatsapp groups in this country are full of tension lol. We create a group for a purpose and later, some people choose to change the purpose and when they're told to keep in mind the core purpose, others think you don't need to? No wonder, this country is where it's.
Look out for my book ๐ on corruption, it's coming soon by his grace. I have always wondered how I could contribute to the debate and offer strategies to deal with the menace.
If the NSS Director's misbehaviour is not dealt with, very soon it will become a normal practice for parents go into offices to deal with their wards perceived haters. Can you imagine how parents will invade our schools to beat teachers? Ghana will become a jungle.
I can give you better training than your insults that's worth GHS700. I am ready to give you a life skill that can earn you a lifetime of money and a career for life. At least with my Ph.D., I can teach you STATA, E-VIEWS, & SPSS that can help you for a long time. Get a life
Perhaps I have suffered more. As for me, I am like a seed, if you throw me anywhere I'll germinate. I was denied stay leave with pay in 2015 & after everything, I am still being victimized by the surrogates of this current government. If you know your value, nothing can stop you
Cry, our beloved country, Ghana!
Who says we love and practice democracy? Or that we love and encourage freedom of speech? Or that all other freedoms and liberties are indeed guaranteed, here in our country Ghana?
We must be people who want the best for the country and not political expediency.We're witnessing once more, BoG fund a gold refinery 100%, yet the supposed investor is owing 80%. At this rate, let's sell the country & share the balance after paying our bond holders and lenders.
