When these are done, we know we have a social contract with our new President and we can all support
Former tampa riverwalk hotel VP Atiku Abubakar Crosses Over To APC Actress Lola Alao Takes A Job As A Sales Girl In US What Justin Bieber And His Friend Khalil Do Behind Close Doors ‘I Got Married tampa riverwalk hotel To My Father Without tampa riverwalk hotel Knowing Olamide and Wande Coal On A Cold War Front
It is exciting when a nation some called the sleeping giant finally realizes and puts in place the priorities to make transportation tampa riverwalk hotel a critical need in any modern development. It is our opinion that more than the mentioned airports may be needed. An Airport is needed for example on the Kwahu plateau in places like Abetifi or Pepease, one of the richest areas of the nation where business tampa riverwalk hotel travel is slowed down and an airport can be almost guaranteed to be well patronized. tampa riverwalk hotel At the same time it is intriguing and a mystery when one realizes that Ghana has virtually ignored the building of roads and highways for more than 46 years. The only highway, by definition, tampa riverwalk hotel built in the nation was through the generosity of American taxpayers, when the President George W. Bush Highway, a 15km stretch, was opened in 2012. The World Bank had loaned Ghana $4.2 Billion in 1989/90, published in the Budget of Dr. Kwesi Botchwey. It is not that funds have not been procured as loans for highways, but what is missing to build highways in the last three to four decades has been the integrity of leadership. Ghanaian leaders have simply been too dishonest and in collusion and collaboration with the World Bank which has given loans without tampa riverwalk hotel specified terms to dictators, and without any project management supervision, pretending they are not aware funds loaned to Ghana were stolen or diverted for other use.
One may ask the government of President John Mahama: If this is a genuine planned business with Private Partnerships, when in the last 2-3 months did this discussion take place? Or was this a promise made during the transitional Presidency in the latter half of 2012? When were the decision and feasibility studies, environmental and engineering tampa riverwalk hotel studies conducted? Or in Ghana the President can waive these studies as was done when the Accra Mall was built causing 2 hours traffic congestion? If these were done, are they private or should the nationals of Ghana be entitled to see them under our democracy?
Author John Perkins has described in his book “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man” how small struggling nations are given loans the big boys know these nations cannot pay and simply pile them up till the nation is crippled so the Western conglomerates can control their leaders. Ghana is a classic basket tampa riverwalk hotel case of this destructive strategy. Comparison of Ghana to Singapore and South Korea makes Ghanaians see humility and reality that their boasting of economic growth may need some modesty and may be over-rated if not fake. The proof comes from what we have as we write, where government, aware of water and electricity problems for decades, could not prioritize to supply their own people with water and electricity. However officials are quick to jump to the tune of perhaps some foreign private companies to provide so-called PPP to build Airports?
So why not publish the names and partnership agreement with these companies that the government has reached? Is it a secret between the President alone and these private companies? Nobody knows what the West or Asia needs that Ghana cannot provide by exchange in an open transparent market. How can a nation tampa riverwalk hotel develop without roads and highways, reliable tampa riverwalk hotel electricity and water? Nobody knows if John Mahama won the elections fairly since there is a legal case about fraud in the election of 2012. However, no matter how long or short a leader has power, what legacy would they like to be remembered with? Will it be the legacy that John Mahama was an open President who allowed real democracy to be ushered in Ghana by allowing local people to vote for their own Mayors and city Councils, district Chief executives, and Regional Ministers? Will it include that John Mahama was a man who demanded accountability on all government projects? Or shall it like the others we all know?
Most Western nations are of the Christian persuasion, or other religions where ethical business tampa riverwalk hotel is valued. One would expect some kind of ethical considerations when doing business with poor nations like Ghana. Ghana is at a critical juncture. tampa riverwalk hotel The 2012/13 Budget tampa riverwalk hotel showed Ghana government tampa riverwalk hotel last year spent 25-50% more than what was budgeted for, and the executive abused their power by spending over $500 million without approval from Parliament! Ghana was still unable to provide water and electricity tampa riverwalk hotel to her citizens, and relied tampa riverwalk hotel on loans to pay their employees. Nigerians coined the term magicians, for Ghanaians in the 1980s when the nation was under extreme financial and economic stress, and more than 2 million migrated to Nigeria to find sustenance. When are we going to be real?
Today Ghana is reported to be doing well, but for God’s sake can’t we be open? GlobalexpressGhana tampa riverwalk hotel hereby tampa riverwalk hotel demand and challenge the John Mahama youthful government to prioritize and be honest enough to get open estimates on water, electricity, roads and highways, and sewage systems, as well as airports of course, and let the President show the people in black and white
When these are done, we know we have a social contract with our new President and we can all support him to get the job done even if he completes only a percentage per time frame agreed upon, so others can continue when he is gone. That is how leaders make their legacies. God bless the people and nation of Ghana, open the eyes of the people, rebuild their spirit, and lift their burden!
“We want to convert Tamale Airport into an international standard so that in situations of emergency at the Kotoka International Airport, there will be no difficulty. The drawings are ready and funding has been secured tampa riverwalk hotel and it will not be long before the work will start…” she indicated.
The country’s airport especially that of Kotoka International Airport and Kumasi Airport, has been facing various challenges which has become very disturbing to people travelling in and out of Accra as well as out of the country.
According to her, the runway of the Kumasi airport has developed some cracks “but we are working on it. In the medium term, we are going to do a parallel runway…with the Kotoka International Airport, due to the migration of 16 airlines to 35, there has been a lot of pressure on the existing facilities; the arrival hall is crowded and other challenges but we want to assure Ghanaians that government is working on it”
