SECOND SCRAMBLE FOR AFRICA BECKONS

The second scramble for Africa beckons. This time with some difference. Only two players. After Brexit and its painful effect, the UK is desperately looking for other weaker trade partners so that it can hold on to it's weakened dominace. On the Other side, the EU wants to be even stronger and keep their dominance. Africa is the target for this greatness of course. The USA has shown Europe the wrong signal with Donald Trump in charge.

UK promising £20m investment in Ghana. Yes Investment. I don't know when they will recup their investment and how much it would have further depleted our resources.

Germany also promising to build a VW assembly plant. Just a day after UKs promise. Both of them have left Ghana to other African countries. What is the use of the AU?

These are all good. But I dare say will only benefit the politicians and not the people.

Where is our 1D1F (One district one factory project)? Why has the Central Bank used its monitoring power to reduce confidence in local banks and made foreign owned banks stronger? What happened to the promise by the president to promote made in Ghana Cars in his government. How can we buy a made in Ghana car and pay import duties before DVLA accept to register them?

When ooo when shall we wise up and begin to think of what we can do for our selves, by ourselves and by ourselves?


Ooo thou cursed African Governments. When shall we find the priest. The priest who shall reverse this strong course of self hatred upon us. Perhaps a Great prayer in a great Cathedral will deliver us from this course.

Good morning.

THE LAW ON DEATH INTESTATE IN RELATION TO FAMILY PROPERTY.

Many Ghanaians live in properties which they falsely believe is theirs, but upon their death, they leave their spouses with troubles and litigation. This short write up will examine a fictional fact situation and use it to explain what the law says about Death Interstate in relation to Family Property.   THE PROBLEM KWADWO MINTAH died interstate in June 2019. He had built a two-room apartment in which he lived with his beautiful wife Yaa Achaa and their 3-year-old daughter, Akosua Ahuofe. The Land was a family land which other family members had also build similar apartments and living on. In fact, Yaa Achaa had helped his husband in building by contributing financially to help him put up the structure. They wanted to stop paying rent and so they decided to build to have their own peace of mind. Two years after his death, the family of Kwadwo Mintah are asking Yaa Achaa and her daughter to vacate the building because they need it for a family member who is returning from ...

TRUTH STANDS: DECEIT CANNOT LAST FOR EVER

After watching a tension filled match on Tuesday evening which resulted in a draw, I was only expecting to hear some more news on the seemingly better result of the match between Ghana and England. Instead the, Ya Na case had taken a new turn, 15 accused persons have been acquitted and discharged. Whiles some have jubilated over the judicial decision, others are hurt and this has sparked indiscipline, lawlessness and agitations in the Tamale Metropolis. This time, the foot soldiers have not attacked a DCE. The President, the highest officer in the Land has been issued a warning to desist from entering Tamale in his ongoing nationwide tour or be lynched; the highest impudence. Hmm. Politicians they say are not truthful. Knowing the stand of President Attah Mills on the Ya Na case, and his “father for all” for all motto. I was expecting that by morning, even before news break, arrests would have been made to show government’s seriousness on the matter. How could they resort to burn ND...

EXAMINING THE ESSENCE OF NATIONAL FARMERS DAY IN RELATION TO THE ASPIRATIONS OF THE YOUTH OF GHANA

Farmers have for a very long time dominated in percentage wise, the total working force of Ghana for a very long time. Not Until recently, Farmers were always estimated to constitute about sixty percent of the total Labour force of Ghana. The long standing domination of the countries labour force by farmers indicates how important farming is to Ghana and Ghanaians. A brief enumeration of the importance of farming will even look like an attempt to overemphasise the importance of farming. This is because the benefits of Agriculture to us as a people are uncountable. These importances have thus informed a culture of encouragement and reward scheme for farmers which is to award deserving farmers in an attempt to boost morale and encourage farming in the country. Thus, the National Farmers Day. To me this is a very brilliant accomplishment for a government to practice. It is thus the expectation of all Ghanaians’ that Today as we enjoy our holiday in solidarity with ou...
