Masa, IMF bi God for Ghana?

Ghanaian graduates looked at each other’s face when the news broke about the extension of the International Monetary Fund program to 2018. A chorused question rang through their minds, “is it another year of unemployment”? At the mention of IMF most graduates and government workers knee must bow and their tongues must confess that IMF is King.

Posterity, with cases of underemployment in rural areas and unemployment in urban areas, Ghana has a lot to say on her 60th anniversary. Graduates send certificates and curriculum vitae to various offices hoping that they quenched their taste of employment.

A bribery allegation in Ghana parliament reminds me of Dr. Dombisa Moya argument about corruption among African countries. She further argued about why African countries do not need foreign aid in order to develop. Looking through the calendar, I do not find a suitable year which marks a time Ghana will stop relying on foreign aid.

Posterity, your life is at stake since heritage fund will be used to fund the “free SHS policy”. Reading an SHS diary which explained how the rainy season always marked the beginning of holidays, due to poorly constructed classrooms, I ranked the essence of "free SHS policy".

Many a question has being raised about the achievements of Ghana at 60. Globally, what did other countries celebrate at 60?
Posterity, the eyes of Ghana have being plucked out after plagiarism clothed her in this new year. Ghana looks young at 60, if she boasts of infrastructure development.

Ghana has moved from being identified with a national anthem and a flag to multi-party system. Posterity, you need to take a closer look at the importance of "National Service" in the country.
