Yaw Boadu Ayeboafo, Chairman of the National Media Commission (NMC) The President of the Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) has hitten hard at the Chairman of the National Media Commission (NMC), Yaw Boadu Ayeboafo, for describing the media blackout of New Patriotic Party Members of Parliament (MPs) as an act of “impunity”. According to Albert Dwumfour, the NMC chairman, failed to do due diligence on the matter before rushing to speak on the blackout for Fisheries Minister Hawa Koomson and Farouk Aliu Mahama, the MP for Yendi, over their separate assaults on journalists. Madam Hawa, who doubles as the MP for Awutu Senya East was blacklisted due to an alleged attack on a journalist during the NPP’s parliamentary aspirants’ vetting in Cape Coast. The GJA

Vice-President, Dr. Bawumia Let me begin this by making it clear that this is not an endorsement or disparagement of any candidacy. If and when I decide to endorse any candidate, I shall be unequivocal. This is a commentary on honour, truthfulness and gratitude. The Vice-Presidency is a strange office. It is said by many to be so close to power and yet so bereft of power. I have not heard of a more aggressive disparagement of the office of Vice-President since US V-P John Nance Garner described it as "not worth a bucket of warm spit", as we are witnessing from Team Bawumia. I am completely baffled and so should you. This Vice-President has repeatedly been celebrated as perhaps the most consequential

Ex ECOWAS semper aliquid novi -- to wit, out of ECOWAS always comes something new! This is what Pinny the Elder of Rome is famously credited to have said in reference to Africa, which is liberally replaced here with ECOWAS. In the past year, ECOWAS has been in the news for a variety of reasons.Recall the grandstanding over the July military coup in Niger? Just fizzled out mainly because the decision to use military force to reverse the situation and restore ousted President Bazoum was a knee-jerk reaction of the "elite" civilian cabal in control of the Community. The cost of WAR in Niger had not been factored into the equation at the time of the decision, until the military leaders

Bono regional youth organizer Hon. Rashid Ahmed( Commander Rooney writes on Bawumia’s speaks and matters arising; Bawumia’s brazen ambition to become the President of Ghana follows seven years of broken promises and misgovernment, a pathetic pattern that has left in its trail incompetence, cronyism, environmental devastation, corruption of untold proportions, and an obliterated middle class. The crime of the Ghanaian middle class was that it trusted and voted an opposition leader and his “ECONOMIC WIZKID” running-mate into power. Make no mistake to trust his cocktail of lies !He’s a failure and EMPTY !

For what appears to be the first time in Ghanaian history after Tetteh Quarshie brought cocoa beans to Ghana, the country has approved importation of raw cocoa beans to Accra for use following Government's inability to meet local demand. In a worrying scenario, COCOBOD, the state's business arm with near-monopoly over the purchase and retail of cocoa beans has been almost run aground, unable to meet payments on purchased beans or supply products to some clients. Sources say this has compelled some clients to look for external sources of supply to meet local demand, even as galamsey activities and cocoa smuggling over COCOBOD's inability to pay threaten the future of Ghana's cocoa industry. Among companies seeking to import cocoa beans to meet local

Prof Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang The 2020 presidential running mate of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang has questioned the seeming absence of hitherto critical voices during the era of previous governments led by the NDC.Noting the absence of such voices under the current New Patriotic Party-led government, Prof Opoku-Agyemang who was speaking at the launch of the NDC’s “Voice Out, Vote Out” campaign, emphasised the need for Ghanaians to shun hypocrisy and take active part in voicing out against bad governance at all times.“Ghana must be set free of intimidation, of fear, Ghana must be set free of anger and of hypocrisy. All those who use to speak loud against us where are they? Ghana must be set free of
