By the third month of National Service, one basic expectation should be non-negotiable: payment of allowances. Yet, as of the third month since the commencement of the current service year, not even one evaluation form has been fully processed, let alone allowances paid. This is not an administrative hiccup; it is a systemic failure of…
The ongoing water crisis in Teshie, Nungua, and many parts of Accra, which worsened from late 2025 into early 2026, is not an accident. It is the direct result of poor leadership, weak supervision, and deep neglect by the NDC government. This crisis is devastating, painful, and completely unacceptable in a modern capital city. For…
In Ghana’s evolving democratic landscape, one thing has become painfully clear: the National Democratic Congress (NDC) continues to lean on cheap publicity as a substitute for real leadership and genuine performance. In early January 2026, this pattern was yet again exposed when the NDC government celebrated its US$1.47 billion energy sector debt clearance, as if…
In 2025, the Health Sector of the Effutu Constituency witnessed a remarkable transformation under the purposeful leadership and compassionate intervention of Hon. Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin, Member of Parliament for Effutu. His contributions during the year were not symbolic gestures, but strategic, data-driven, and people-centered interventions that directly addressed access, infrastructure, disease control, and inclusive healthcare…
The recent intermittent power outages in Ho, other parts of Ghana, especially Kumasi, have once again reignited national concern over electricity reliability, popularly referred to as DUMSOR. While some in the NDC camp hurriedly downplay the scale of the problem, businesses, households, and everyday Ghanaians continue to feel the sting of recurring outages. These outages…
Ghana cannot stand idle while the very foundations of its democracy are under attack. The sustained harassment of Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo‑Markin is a direct assault on parliamentary integrity and the role of opposition in this republic. Attempts to remove him from the ECOWAS Parliament, coupled with repeated referrals to the Privileges Committee over legitimate…
Ghana’s much-needed industrial transformation is collapsing before our eyes, not because the idea was weak, but because the current NDC administration has quietly dismantled one of the country’s most promising economic engines, which is the One District One Factory (1D1F) initiative. Instead of strengthening a productive national policy that created jobs and spread industrial growth,…
Ghana’s mineral sovereignty is under threat. What should be a transparent process for leveraging Ghana’s lithium, a critical mineral at the heart of the global green economy, has instead become a secretive negotiation table, restricted to elites with political connections, while ordinary Ghanaians and affected communities are kept in the dark. This is not governance;…
Ghana’s hard-won democracy is under a quiet but dangerous strain. Behind recent clashes over representation and institutions lies a greater threat, growing whispers and political manoeuvres that edge toward reinterpreting or amending the constitutional presidential term limits, potentially undermining the heart of Ghana’s democratic safeguard. This cannot, must not, and will not happen. Sovereignty belongs…
Ghana in 2025–2026 has witnessed a disgraceful collapse in basic public service delivery under President John Dramani Mahama’s administration, most glaringly exposed in the systemic failure to pay and regularize thousands of newly recruited teachers, the very professionals entrusted with shaping the nation’s future. This isn’t mere administrative drift; it’s a crisis of governance that…
