Ghanaian politicians: Creating wealth and jobs isn't rocket science. It is simple-commonsensical-stuff

Why do Ghanaian politicians persist with the egregious dissembling-nonsense  that somehow, governments-of-the-day, can create jobs that are fulfilling for those lucky enough to find such government created jobs in Ghana? Are Nabco jobs fulfilling, anaaa, I ask? Do the young people who do those protocol-type-jobs get paid regularly, anaaa? Haaba.


With the greatest respect, it is only Ghana's private sector that can create wealth that remains locally, and decent fulfilling jobs, for those willing to work productively - because smart entrepreneurs across the nation incentivise them, oooo, Ghanafuo. Yoooooo...



One's humble advice to members of our nation's hard-of-hearing political class, is to make the whole of Ghana's agricultural sector, not just the cocoa industry,  tax free - and demand that all farming in Ghana converts to organic farming within the next 5 years.



They will be astonished by how such a policy will result in a dramatic improvement in crop yields nationwide; and be amazed by the jobs galore it will generate - and boost the immune systems of Ghanaians, and make us a healthy people once again: like our forebears were before Africans came into contact with Western civilisation.  



Ditto be incredulous that such a policy results in exponential growth in the processing of agricultural produce; and also be pleasantly surprised to  see how adding value to agricultural produce, through processing, contributes positively to Ghana's trade balance - and actually  strengthens the hapless new Ghana cedi (a more or less worthless currency that sundry dog-collar-charlatans have prayed to God Almighty to strengthen, and stabilise, for yonks - but to no avail, alas:  because God hates stupidity in leaders), a feat which over the years, has eluded policymakers of virtually  all regimes, since the founding of the 4th Republic. Creating wealth and jobs, really isn't rocket science, koraaa, oooo, Ghanafuo. It is simple-commonsensical-stuff, wai. Cool.
