The POG 🇬🇭

So suck it up and be a true fan!

@Kiss_Mequikk No government can be perfect, the best you can ask for is a government with sense and a conscience. For that, we struck gold with Mahama 2.0

Preparations are underway for the Kwahu Afram plains bridge as well. Working for the people

@Maxallegr1 I hate dialogue like this. Pulisic is a fantastic player. He has proven it time and again. But he is human. So is Leao. Both have played out of position the whole season. Every player struggles , that doesn’t mean we should boo them, discard them. We need to be better fans

Lessons from today: 1-Pulisic is worthless 2-Team lacks balance without Fofana

@MilanXtra They booed Maldini on his last game for Milan. Nothing they won’t do

Leao has been shocking, understood. But why booing him and him only? We lost Theo like this. We're going to lose Rafa like this. #️⃣ | #MilanUdinese 0-3

Allegri is really stupid

Allegri is an idiot. Leao CF, pulisic LW, salad RW

@LombardiaMax People now seeing what I’ve been saying for weeks. He has been mediocre this season

Salads pissing me off

@fourthestategh You guys are really starting to lose your integrity

@JoySportsGH @JoyNewsOnTV Harve Renard….its time

Who is your pick as the next Black Stars coach? 🇲🇦 Walid Regragui 🇫🇷 Herve Renard 🇬🇭 Kwasi Appiah 🇬🇭 Desmond Ofei 🇸🇪 Kim Lars Bjorkegren #JoySports

@_InsideMilan Milan is the worst club for young footballers

what happened to silvano vos??

@papakwesi_jr This must be the opposite of corruption. It feels like he’s rather putting money into the country

Where is Mahama getting the money to do all these roads in Ghana?

@askghmedia This Austria is a different team. They balked at the euros, have an excellent coach and my favorite player in the world at the moment, Baumgartner. They are, in my opinion, dark horses of the tournament that will shock ‘big’ teams. That being said, Otto Addo still has to go…

When Ghana met Austria for the first time on March 24, 2007 in an international friendly in Graz, the match ended in a 1–1 draw 🇦🇹🇬🇭 Austria took the lead through René Aufhauser in the 55th minute and Sulley Muntari scored a late equalizer for Ghana in the 87th minute.

@PoojaMedia Forget the keeper! Who is that baller?

Dear Chelsea, here is your new GK. Keeper sutoooo 🔥🔥

Again,so what?? What is the crime here?

@Evans_Adjokatse Erm, ignoring the stupidity of this, we all know the big push is about more than roads,right?

Eiiiiii Versatile Journalist 😂😂😂😂 Abena Opokua Ahwenee says How Urgent Can constructing a road be? Under #bigpush? Doesn’t Road construction be very urgent in an economy when it directly affects trade, transportation, safety, job creation, and economic productivity?

1. The deplorable state of our roads is one of the biggest national security threats we face as a country. Bad roads have claimed many lives through fatal road accidents, armed robbery etc. 2. I am reliably informed that, the Surveying, Designing and Costing of Big Push road projects alone took the Ministry of Roads about 7 months to complete. 3. Resorting to the National Competitive Tendering process for the award of these critical road projects would have taken another couple months before the projects could even commence. This could have delayed the completion of most of the projects beyond 2028. 4. Competitive tendering processes have in some cases lasted for months. A typical example is the competitive tendering process for the Road Toll project that has not still be completed in about a year due to its complexities. 5. Section 40 of the Public Procurement Law provides for Single Source procurement method on grounds of urgency, among others, subject to the approval of the Public Procurement Authority (PPA). Thus, sole sourcing is lawful. The unjustified use and abuse of sole sourcing is what President Mahama and the NDC have condemned. 6. There is not a scintilla of evidence in the Fourth Estate publication that shows that the use of sole sourcing for the said Big Push road projects was unjustified or that there were any breaches of the law or abuse of the process. Neither was any evidence of the cost of the projects being inflated adduced by the Fourth Estate. 6. In opposition, the NDC never said sole-sourcing was a sin or unlawful. We only preached against the unjustified use and abuse of sole-sourcing in the award of government projects, some of which were established by the Auditor General to be inflated. In fact, some of us cited audit findings of the Auditor General to show that sole-sourced cocoa road projects, some of which were awarded to Bawumia’s brother were inflated. 7. In the case of the Big Push road projects, all projects that were awarded through sole sourcing received prior PPA approval as same was justified on grounds of URGENCY. Value for Money audits were conducted. The contracts were not awarded to a select few but rather carefully selected, multiple, competent and experienced contractors with demonstrable capacity to complete the works on time. None of the contracts have been established to be inflated. The urgency of the projects cannot be denied. And like all road projects, payments are based on actual work done certified by independent Consultants. 8. As a matter of fact, 23 out of 84 Big Push road projects, such as Suame Interchange, Ofankor- Nsawam, Adenta- Dodowa, etc. are inherited road projects that were all awarded by the previous NPP government through sole-sourcing with no dedicated funding. This government has simply novated the projects, maintained the contractors and provided for funding for them under the Big Push policy. The 23 road projects were not re-awarded. Yet, the Fourth Estate has mischievously added all these projects to their list of sole-sourced contracts awarded by this government. Clearly they could have done a better job. 9. So what’s the point really? The NDC spoke against sole-sourcing in the past so every resort by the NDC to sole-sourcing in government must be condemned? Is that the logic being canvassed by the Fourth Estate? A classical case of comparing oranges with apples.

@MartinoPooch It’s udinese I’m worried about,honestly. Those guys never fail to make us sweat

Milan gain two more points on Inter. Next match day in Serie A will be bonkers. Napoli and Milan are within striking distance of Inter and they face off at the Maradona. Inter face off against Roma. This league is always dramatic regardless of quality

@MilanPosts If we had beaten Parma and drew Lazio

We've dropped too many points..

@blaquegatsby @ImaniAfr @BBSimons @lordcudjoe Fair enough. But such bodies should not be putting out such unfounded accusations without proof. It’s a dangerous and slippery slope. There are some things that once you break trust, it’s hard to win it back. For me, I no longer trust @BBSimons

@theMilandude @ImaniAfr @BBSimons @lordcudjoe I still believe in him and that's why I ask the questions when things he posts don't add up or end up being false.

When civil society organizations and policy analysts start peddling falsehoods and making baseless allegations, we're doomed as a nation. @ImaniAfr, @BBSimons, @lordcudjoe, and Kofi Bentil have been some of the most significant CSOs and analysts shaping the conversation in nation-building. They made wild allegations that @samgeorgegh had awarded a sole-sourcing contract last year. Today, Kofi Bentil admits it was a lie and unfounded. This is not only dangerous, but it also makes it more imperative than ever to keep scrutinizing the information some of these CSOs put out. When CSOs, who are supposed to be etched in the same values and role as the media, start peddling blatant falsehoods, where do we go for the truth when politicians engage in propaganda with issues?
