A professor at the University of Ghana, Ransford Gyampo has observed that leadership since the independence of Ghana has failed the country.
He attributes this to the level of development Ghana is witnessing presently compared to what is happening in other countries.
Prof Gyampo blamed Ghana’s underdevelopment on corruption and misgovernance.
“Leadership since independence has failed. Ghana. you look at the level of development elsewhere and you compare it to us, it is like we are trying to do things without our soul for our people,” he said while making a comment on the Key Points on TV3 Saturday, April 27.
He added “It appears we are being wicked to ourselves and the caliber of people we have selected to power the development they have failed.
“We hate ourselves, we get into all manner of corruption and misgovernance, if you look at the caliber of people who want to go to parliament if you look at the caliber of people contesting to be president, some independent candidates, it tells you that we have failed.”
