I have followed African politics from the 90s, I’ve observed how Opposition parties comes in harder with manifestos/campaign messages that offers real solutions to existing problems but, sadly, I’m not seeing that in Ghana’s opposition party, this isn’t giving hope to the voters.

I have followed keenly the happenings in Ghana in regard to the arrest of the protestors,I think Ghana Police are more professional than the police here in UK & in the USA,here, you can’t push down police barricades, attack them, take their car key & still be alive,they’ll shoot.

Ghana is doing something positive in Africa, ditching petrol cars for electric ones is the best since it’s cheaper, On average, drivers save about $700 in fuel costs per year while driving electric cars,passengers pay less,it’s environmental friendly as they don’t emit pollutants

War shouldn’t be in the interest of anyone, both Iran and Israel should disengage, let’s talk peace for once instead of war.

I wish the Israel - Arab confrontation is contained, Hezbollah’s ability to strike Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו’s residence opens a new chapter in this war, this shouldn’t be in the interest of anyone, let’s advocate for peace instead of war.

The newly elected President, John Dramani Mahama’s decision to cut down waste by appointing 60 ministers is in right direction, Africa isn’t broke, it’s about being realistic and decreasing Government’s expenditure by cutting down the size of Government.

Recent online reports indicate a worrying trend of mass layoffs affecting African youth in Ghana. The underlying reasons for this phenomenon are unclear. However, the consequences of rising youth unemployment are severe, and Europe may face a surge in asylum seekers as a result.

Ghana's “Dumsor” pose a threat to the economy, potentially leading to collapse if left unaddressed. It is already driving foreign investors to neighboring countries.A Canadian friend planned to establish a factory in Ghana but was forced to relocate to Ivory Coast due to “Dumsor”

Is the president of Ghana promoting crypto and meme coins? This is unbelievable, Ghana would be moving in a very slippery direction with this announcement from the President.

The recent cocaine controversy in Ghana, linked to flights from Gran Canaria and Airmed is troubling, this could affect the trust between Ghana and the west, it would be in the Ghana’s government own interest to launch full investigation into this issue for clarity sake.

Government of Ghana's spokesperson may be raising suspicions about the Airmed flight's stay in Ghana by not providing clear information, they might be fueling speculation and concerns about the flight's activities. Transparency is key in situations like this.

I convinced a friend from the USA to invest in Ghana, he traveled Ghana for prospecting, with plans to establish a factory. However, after experiencing frequent power outages, he changed his mind & returned to the States, citing the unreliable energy supply as a major deterrent.

I saw this book making rounds online, i have read through the pages but page 59 is damning! This can never happen in the western world, the president of Ghana dashing out Ghana’s natural resources to his brother?

My friends in Ghana are sounding the alarm about the local currency's volatility, citing unpredictable hourly fluctuations that threaten their business stability. With many threatening to shut down their businesses, pull out their investment and exit the country.
