In a Ghana beyond aid where it aims to be a master of its own destiny with a changed attitude towards work where citizens work hard to raise their own resources and to fix their problems, is it still acceptable for five ministers to abandon their duties just to attend a funeral?

Or is it okay for a government to hold as many as three massively expensive thanksgiving services in less than a year; to think that the last one on Thursday was during working hours? 

And oh did the President spend several hours at the thanksgiving after he earlier this year criticised public sector workers for spending working hours to pray?

Ghana Connect had Aretha Amma Sarfo-Kantanka, Founder of Global Fusion Productions Inc., a global branding company that connects the world to Africa and Africa to the world. She specializes in fashion, entertainment, art, tourism and Technology.

Also connecting was Dr Kwame Agyeman, an International law lecturer with the Lancaster University.

Ernesto Yeboah, the former Youth Organiser of the Conventions People's Party (CPP) and leading member of Economic Fighter’s League also joined the discussion.

Are there more questions than answers?
