Ghanaians can’t tighten their belts whiles you’re enjoying – Kwabena Agyepong lashes gov’t

Flagbearer hopeful for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Kwabena Agyei Agyepong has taken on the government for encouraging Ghanaians to tighten their belts whiles they enjoy freebies.

Ghana is currently going through an economic meltdown with the rise in the standard of living in the country amidst skyrocketing prices of goods and services.

The government has blamed the hardship in the country on the Ukraine-Russian wars and the impact of COVID-19; something which has been corroborated by the International Monetary Fund(IMF).

The President of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has acknowledged the hardship and has asked the people of Ghana to rally behind him to take the country out of the ditch.

But reacting to this, Kwabena Agyepong believes that there should be an indication that the government is also sacrificing when citizens have been asked to sacrifice.

“The Problems that we have are social, political and economic. Economic problems have to be solved by the government by example, by leading and doing the right things and taking the right decisions. Simple implementable decisions have to be taken to be able to drive confidence and have society behind us.

The only way we can do so is when they realize that you are also going through the austerity that they are going through. You can’t encourage people to tighten their belts when you are having freebies, you can’t do that. For example in countries like Botswana Government officials cannot use public vehicles on weekends, you’ll be surcharged. This is all part of the waste we have in Ghana.

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them. Related Posts Quoting a Scripture from Matthew, Papa Shee mentioned that no one should refer to a man as his/her spiritual father because the word speaks against it.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to. A worrying feature of their roads they say is the fact that moving from Samreboi to neighbouring villages and towns become impossible especially during the rainy season hence bringing economic activities to a standstill. Residents say even though the year has been declared “Year of Roads” they are yet to see a kilometre of road being constructed. To the Youth especially, leaders in their part of the country have failed them after years of exploiting them for their own interest. They say they will advise themselves if nothing is done ab...
