Why Duncan Williams, Eastwood Anaba Resigned as National Cathedral Board of Trustees
The resignation of two prominent clergymen in the Country from the National Cathedral Board of Trustees has sent shockwaves down the spines of those who are already ardent critics of the project. Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-William and Reverend Eastwood Anaba tendered their resignation on Tuesday, October 17, 2023, citing two major reasons. MyNewsGh.com highlights their reason below;In January 2023 as Trustees of the Board of Trustees, we submitted a draft Resolution to the said Board resolving that current activities, advancing the construction of Ghana’s National Cathedral be deferred until the findings of an audit. This deferment included a cessation of activities of the Board of Trustees. Specifically, our Resolution stated, “In the spirit and cause of transparency and accountability to the Ghanaian people, the current Board of Trustees of The National Cathedral shall appoint an independent accounting firm to audit all public funds contributed to The National Cathedral. This appointment of an auditor shall take place before the deferment of the activities of the Board of Trustees.”Despite our prayers, best hopes and wishes, unfortunately, a needed audit to help restore public confidence and trust in this consequential project has not been enacted to the best of our knowledge. Since January 2023, we awaited news to no avail.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Akufo-Addo seem to enjoy insults hurled at him Vim Lady suggests
Radio personality Afia Pokua known popularly as Vim Lady believes that President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo enjoys it when a section of Ghanaians are insulting him. The President during his visit to the Volta Region to sympathize with communities affected by the flood, said he was there as a father for all. He further indicated that if it were for votes, he wouldn’t have even been there because the people in the Region do not vote for him.“𝙄 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙖𝙨𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙂𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙜𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙙𝙤 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙣 𝙞𝙩𝙨 𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙤 𝙖𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙨𝙩 [𝙖𝙣𝙙] 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙖𝙡𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩.

Money sunk in abandoned projects equal to Ghanas GDP Asiedu Nketiah
The National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) Mr Johnson Asiedu Nketiah has tasked Ghanaians to hold politicians to complete projects started by their predecessors. He also described the situation as very worrying especially under the Akufo-Addo-led government equating the amount invested into some of these abandoned projects to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the country. “The monies that are locked up in projects which have been abandoned in various stages, if we are able to compute the actual value, arguably it will be equal to the GDP of the country as we are speaking”, Mr Asiedu Nketiah sounded the alarm bellsThe National Chairman of the NDC who made this known at the 75th Anniversary of St Joseph College of Education at Bechem in the Tano South district of the Ahafo Region, also stressed that, the numerous projects abandoned across the country affect the developmental status of the country in various ways.He noted if politicians focus on completing projects to serve the citizens, they will not be focusing on taking credit for projects but they would rather be focusing on completing project to serve mother Ghana. “After all, no politician comes to office with money”, he stated.He added that, previous governments put up a numerous projects to improve the country’s development in different sectors across the regions but all the projects have been abandoned by current government.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Party supporters going on rampage uncharacteristic of NDC Ako Gunn
A Deputy Communications Director for the largest opposition political party in Ghana, the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Ako Gunn has described attacks at the party’s office in Odododiodo as uncharacteristic of the NDC. He hinted that the party is taking all the necessary steps to investigate the matter in order to bring the people involved to book. Ako Gunn was speaking to Accra-based OKAY FM when he made this known. “They vetted and approved three candidates for the elections. These candidates did balloting for their numbers on the ballot papers. After that, they came out and spoke to their supporters. However, some party members who were there were of the belief that one of the candidates did not qualify and therefore did not have the right to be on the ballot. They went on a rampage to register their displeasure at the decision made by the vetting committee. They did not have access to the room where the vetting took place so they destroyed some chairs that were in front of the office.Just like we stated in our press release, this is bad in every way and needs to be condemned. This is unlike the NDC, and we are taking steps to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to book,” he said.BackgroundChaos occurred at the NDC’s Greater Accra Regional office in South La, where three individuals—Nii Okai Laryea, Kotey Ashie, and Michael Nii Yarboi Annang—were facing the committee in the hope of succeeding the incumbent MP, Edwin Nii Lantey Vanderpuye, who is not seeking re-election.The Odododiodio Constituency was unable to participate in the February 2023 vetting exercise due to outstanding issues that the party needed to resolve.Friday’s vetting was to determine the fate of the three aspirants for the party’s parliamentary primary, which is slated for Tuesday, October 31, 2023.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

NDC Chairman Justifies why Parliamentary Aspirant was rejected for being 4 minutes late
The Central Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) who doubles as the Member of the parliamentary vetting committee, Prof Richard Kofi Asiedu has justified why an aspirant was rejected by the committee for submitting his nomination forms late. He stated that the party has procedures before one can file his nomination including the time of which the embattled aspirant, Mr. Ekow Felix Nkrumah failed to adhere to. Mr Ekow Felix Nkrumah, a National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate Aspirant for Gomoa Central Constituency of the Central Region has been rejected by the vetting committee of the party.The committee argued that the aspirant filed his nomination papers Four (4) minutes late and therefore does not qualify to be vetted.Mr. Ekow Felix Nkrumah on Friday, October 13, 2023, visited the Central Regional NDC Secretariat in Cape Coast with a bus of his supporters for vetting and only to be told that he could not go through the vetting process because he was 4 minutes late during the submission of nomination forms.Confirming the decision of the committee to the media, the Regional Chairman said during the file of nomination forms at Gomoa Central party office, Ekow Felix Nkrumah was 4 minutes late but due to the party rules and regulations the vetting committee failed to vet him.He explained that after 5 pm the party cannot receive any nomination forms irrespective of the person’s rank in the party.Prof Kofi Asiedu appealed to him not to worry since plans are underway to reward him with better position if the party had the opportunity to win power. “MP position is not the end of the world so there is the need for Kow Safo to exercise patience since the party has better plans for him”, he consoled the disappointed aspirant.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Mahama blames climate change for causing flooding
Former President John Dramani Mahama has blamed climate change that has occasioned the increasing rainfall pattern resulting in more water in the Akosombo Dam. He notes that the north of the country where the Akosombo Dam has its tributaries continues to experience heavy rainfall with the White Volta at its peak. Speaking to the media after visiting thousands of displaced persons in some of the affected Districts in the Volta and Eastern Regions, Mr. Mahama appealed for relief items for the affected persons.“Our understanding is that the water is going to rise from any further. Our sources from VRA indicate that they have reached the peak of the spillage so it won’t get worse. It would take time for the water to recede. We have had an unusually heavy rain in the north, I was in the north last week and I noticed that the White Volta had reached its upper limit and so all that water is coming down to Akosombo. The people really need assistance; unfortunately, my understanding is that NADMO has nothing”, he lamented.“The main problem is the dam, it is receiving more than it can contain and when you do not spill you will destroy the dam. If the dam gives way, it would be more catastrophic to communities down the southern Volta. This is not the first time VRA is spilling water but seems to be a bit heavier than normal. This happens once in a while and does not happen every year. It is just because of climate change because normally, the rainfall in the north would have started subsiding but unfortunately, when I was in the north last week it was raining heavily. It is unusual weather and it is all part of what is happening to the change of climate”, he stressedSource: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

These are things that are happening that Ghanaians are not happy about and I think leaders of the party and the President must give it a hearing and work with it. They must sieve through the complaints and work on the genuine ones” “I am an NPP member reason some of us believe Honorable Ken is asking for change. He has all it takes to get the NPP to work and form the next government” “There are sensitive troubling issues happening within the NPP that need the attention of leadership. All is not right in the NPP, it’s a human organization and mistakes will be made. It takes people to correct it. The people can’t all be wrong” he said.   Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Ashanti Regional Minister should have been fired 4 years ago P.V Jantuah
The Ashanti Regional Minister, Simon Osei Mensah has been advised to voluntarily leave his position in the face of challenges by the current government in delivering its promise to the people of the Ashanti Region. He has been accused of looking unconcerned while the region deteriorates without proper coordination of activities to make things work. P.V Dadson Jantuah a politician and an advocate for life-changing developmental projects for the region believes promises made by the regional minister that the 40-year maternity ward that was razed down for a new one to be constructed will be done in just over a period of four years since funds were available. “The Regional Minister, Simon Osie Mensah, should have been sacked a long time ago. He made pronouncements that the maternity ward that was pulled down will be finished in just under four years. Pass there and see if that has been done” “The Minister is just not performing. At the RCC what is he coordinating, the region is just losing its glory under him and Nana Addo. We can’t remain quiet. All the appointees in Nana Addo’s government who are in all kinds of interesting positions, how is he rallying them for the development of the region? Tell me why he should still be at post”, he wondered. Source: MyNewsGh.com Thanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Special Prosecutors petition for change of judge silly, childish, unheard of Lawyer
Respected private legal practitioner Kwame Adofo has slammed Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng for petitioning the Chief Justice to change the judge presiding over his case against the former Minister for Sanitation and Water Resources, Cecilia Abena Dapaah. For Mr Adofo, the request by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) is silly and childish and the Special Prosecutor may be engaged in such a needless request so as to hide the fact that he may have realized that his case against Cecilia Dapaah is bad, and he is going to lose it. Speaking in an interview with Neat FM, Mr Adofo stressed that Mr Kissi Agyebeng has exhibited incompetence, and it is surprising that he was a Criminal Law Lecturer at the University of Ghana for many years. It is his contention that he deserves to be axed for his obvious incompetence.“…As Special Prosecutor, you’re prosecuting in the name of the State. The judge is employed by the State. Why will you say you don’t trust the judge? Are you saying the judge is part of the evildoers? So, you’re selecting the judge you want? I have never heard of this before.In any event, his complaint is that the judge has ruled against him once. If you look at his statement, he failed to say exactly why he doesn’t want the judge. He only said that he feels that he is prejudiced against him. More generic language. Prejudiced against the Special Prosecutor. What a silly statement! I have never heard such a thing before. And I am surprised this guy was teaching lawyers…And he can’t even prosecute a simple matter,” Mr Adofo said in a combination of Twi and English.He added that if the Chief Justice should grant Mr Kissi Agyebeng request for a change of judge, it would set a bad precedent which could lead to Cecilia Dapaah also requesting a change of judge.The OSP is in Court seeking to get a confirmation order to re-seize Cecilia Dapaah’s cash and re-freeze her accounts after a first attempt failed. The judge His Lordship Justice Edward Twum had earlier ruled against the OSP’s attempt to seize and freeze her assets.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

NPPs challenges not a guarantee NDC will win 2024 polls Team Kennedy Agyapong
The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has been cautioned against thinking the 2024 General Elections is a done deal for them in view of the current internal challenges of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) Head of Research of the Kennedy Agyapong Campaign team in the Ashanti Region, Silas Asiedu who gave the caution noted that the NDC jubilating over the current failures of the ruling NPP and its government coupled with its struggles with the hope of winning the 2024 polls will be left in shock. Making a firm position for the NPP with a Ken candidature in 2024, Mr. Asiedu said there may be unpleasant situations in the country but that does not mean Ghanaians are willing to give their mandate to the NDC. He was speaking on the Ultimate FM Cup of Tea with show host Julius Caesar Anadem.“The 2024 elections is not for the NDC, they shouldn’t think our failures today will give them victory. We will break the 8 with Kennedy Agyapong, he has the right attitude and skills for the job of presidency” “The NDC now feels comfortable, they have a flagbearer and some parliamentary candidates in place but the real question is what their message is all this while? What will they do when given the power today? The good people are just waiting for Kennedy Agyapong so they vote for and nothing can stop that. This election (2024) is about personalities and Mahama and his NDC are not near the presidency, they are not the personalities Ghana wants now, it’s Ken and the NPP and no other group” he said. There is a growing level of disappointment sweeping through the country over the performance of the NPP government since it assumed office in 2017. In recent times there have been demonstrations against the government while the party maintains its mantra of breaking the eight, which is succeeding itself with a different candidate.Some argue situations are fertile for the NDC coming back into office as to whether that will happen to Ghanaians and time will tell.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Sentimental voting in Ashanti Region cause of underdevelopment- Former Presidential Staffer
A former appointee of the erstwhile Mahama administration P.V Dadson Boateng Jantuah is blaming the lack of real development in the Ashanti Region for the overly sentimental voting pattern in the region. Reacting to a request by some traders in Kejetia for a paradigm shift of development under the Akufo-Addo administration towards the Ashanti Region, the former Presidential Staffer noted that, the style of voting of these same traders is the cause of the underdevelopment in the region. Making a point on the Ultimate Cup of Tea show in Kumasi, monitored by MyNewsGh.com, Mr. Jantuah called for a change in voting trends so that both the NPP and the NDC will take development in the region seriously. “I have heard the press conference by the Kejetia traders, and their calls are legitimate, but they are part of the problem.” “The sentimental voting in the region, the one-directional voting in the region, whereby they always vote for the NPP affects development in the region, because the thinking is that whether we give you projects or not, they will vote for us. That must stop” “The NDC takes development seriously in the region but the NPP reneges on that. Most life-changing projects in the region were constructed under the NDC regimes, that is a statement of fact and if the voting style does not change it could affect the region if not affecting it now”, he observed Just a fortnight ago, traders at Kejetia Market called out the ruling NPP making it clear their level of disappointment and failures of the government in bringing development to the region.They cited the slow pace of the Central Market project phase 2, the stalled airport project, and the poor road network in the Ashanti Region as examples of political parties taking them for granted They said persons in leadership positions in the party and in government have failed the region, especially under the Nana Addo regime.     Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Former MP for Karaga Hot; ordered to apologize to Ya Naa over disrespect
Dagbon Forum (DF), has called on the former National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for the Karaga constituency, Mr. Alhassan Dandawa to render an unqualified public apology to His Royal Majesty, Naa Gbewaa and the good people of Dagbon for showing gross disrespect to the authority of Ndan Yaa-Naa who is the sole appointing authority of the Karaga skin. Dagbon Forum also called on the National and Regional Executives of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to dissociate themselves from the statements made by the former MP which by all standards desecrates the sanctity of the Dagbon chieftaincy institution and an insult to the Supreme Court of Ghana. The President of Dagbon Forum, Mr. Sakoya-Naa Mahama Iddrisu Sintaro, in a statement said the former Karaga MP, Mr. Alhassan Sualihu Dandawa during his visit to the former regent of Karaga, Naa Sumani Mahama, the former Law Maker made certain unfortunate statements which do not only constitute a serious security threat to the area but also disrespected and questioned the authority of the Ndan Yaa-Naa.According to him, Mr. Dandawa is shown in the video telling the former Regent that God chose him as one, so whoever thinks otherwise should know that it is between him and God.“The former Member of Parliament added that, once the disenkinment of the late Kari-Naa Mahama could not be effected, the former regent need not also be worried about anything but to pray for long life and change of political power so that he (the former regent) would take back what actually belongs to him.”He noted that such statements from the former MP are affront to the authority of Ndan Yaa-Naa as well as the time-tested customs and traditions of Dagbon.“Can the former member of Parliament be candid enough to tell the entire Dagbon what a change of political power can do for the former Regent of Karaga which His Royal Majesty, Ndan Yaa-Naa is unable to do at the moment? Is the Ndan Yaa-Naa no longer the only appointing authority for skins such as Karaga? If he remains the only appointing authority as we all know, including Honourable Dandawa, what then was not done properly by His Majesty which Honourable Dandawa think can be corrected when there is a change of political power? The former lawmaker needs to be forthcoming with answers to these questions.”“Equally disturbing is the fact that the Former lawmaker clearly made nonsense of the newly revised Dagbon Constitution that upholds the age-old traditional status of the Karaga skin when he questioned why the former Regent be denied the skin when it is his turn. Dagbon Forum wishes to make it known to Honourable Dandawa that the status of the three gate skins of Karaga, Savelugu and Mion is clearly defined and upheld.”Mr. Sintaro called on politicians across all the political parties to be constantly conscious of the destructions Dagbon suffered as a result of our chieftaincy institution being meddled with politics adding that making unrealistic political promises to chiefs in Dagbon does not only represent the biggest insult to the respected chieftaincy institution but also a desperate attempt to push Dagbon back to its dark past.“This attitude must be condemned by all well-meaning Dagbamba. The unity and peace of Dagbon override the political interest of any individual or group. We can no longer continue to countenance cheap political expedience as the expense of the wider Dagbon. DF would like all political parties to tell the people they represent in Dagbon what their development agenda is or will be. We are sick and tired to the core of being used as political pawns. The time has come now for Dagbon to rise up and say enough is enough of any political gimmicks”.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

The Protocol arrangement therefore require John Mahama to be brought by his vehicle straight to his sitting place without having to walk through the gathering to receive cheers from supporters. On the contrary, the organizers say Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia who is Vice President of the Republic is allowed to go round and greet patrons and attendees to the event which is a key gathering of Muslim leaders and followers of the National Chief Imam. Some Supporters of the National Democratic Congress NDC in the Fadama and Abeka areas have accused the officials at the office of the National Chief Imam of seeking to “play politics” with a non-partisan event. They allege some officials in the office of the Chief Imam are being taken care of by government hence doing everything possible to make Mahama unpopular among Moslem voters.According to Zongomail, The National chief Imam Sheikh Osman Nuhu Sharubutu will be hosting the Annual Maulid Nabih at Fadama on Saturday.The National Maulid, organised by the National Chief Imam annually, is observed to celebrate the birth of Prophet Muhammad, and this year’s edition will be held in Accra.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Cecilia Dapaah case: Hes prejudiced against me Special Prosecutor cries to CJ
The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has accused the judge presiding over the case between it and Cecelia Dapaah, the former Minister for Sanitation, of bias, petitioning the Chief Justice to change the judge to sit on the case. According to the OSP, the judge, His Lordship Justice Edward Twum appears to be prejudiced against the OSP and its head, the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng and therefore the OSP is unable to be part of cases being handled by Justice Edward Twum. “The OSP has requested the Chief Justice to recuse and remove His Lordship Justice Edward Twum from all cases involving the OSP pending before him. The request is grounded on the OSP’s well-founded belief that Justice Edward Twum appears to be highly prejudiced against the OSP and the person of the Special Prosecutor. Consequently, as it stands, the OSP would not and cannot be reasonably expected to be parties to proceedings before the said judge,” a statement from the OSP said.Justice Edward Twum is the High Court judge who ruled that the OSP’s request for a confirmation order to freeze Ms Cecilia Dapaah’s assets was unfounded and therefore ordered that her assets be returned to her. He also granted a request by Ms Cecilia Dapaah’s lawyers for an abridgement of time to hear her application for the unfreezing of her assets after the OSP froze them again after returning them to her.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Alan, Ken Agyapong supporters defect to Bawumia in Ashanti Region
The Dr Mahamudu Bawumia (DMB) brand continues to be an attracting force for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) grassroots as more persons have openly ditched other aspirants for the Vice President. Barely a week after some executives in the Assin Central Constituency of the Central Region, the home constituency of Kennedy Agyapong, one of the flagbearer aspirants openly declared their support for the Vice President; the Ashanti Region has also done the same. At a news conference on Sunday, October 15, 2023, supporters of John Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanten and Kennedy Agyapong defected to the camp of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia pledging their unflinching support. Led by Mr Dawuda Afriyie, the First Vice Chairman of the Offinso North Constituency they were heard in a viral video singing the praise of the Vice President and shouting “It’s Possible” Addressing the press, Adul Aziz Ismail popularly known as Kennedy Ba and a polling station Executive at Kwaman Methodist in the Afigya Kwabre North Constituency underscored the need for a winnable candidate, Dr. Bawumia.“We are looking for a winnable flagbearer for the 2024 polls. Some of our MPs and Executives have come under severe attacks over their choice of their preferred candidates. The Majority Leader who has been an MP for several years knows the best candidate to be flagbearer and settled on the Vice President as the best candidate. Our father Kan Dapaah believes Bawumia is the obvious choice and we have bought into their idea.  As a result, we have resolved to support the Vice President”, he disclosed.Mr. Adul Aziz Ismail described Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as the right candidate to be the flagbearer of the NPP in 2024 indicating that the choice is devoid of inducement or any personal gain but for the general good of the NPP.On his part, Mr. Dawuda Afriyie a staunch Alan Kyeremanten supporter in the Ashanti Region bemoaned the conduct of the resigned NPP member and expressed his disappointment.“After Alan’s decision to resign from the NPP, it is obvious I am not a kid in politics to be shown which path to choose. I voted for Busia in 1969 and I have been voting to date. I have supporters and we decided to throw our support for Alhaji Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. We have supporters in the 15 constituencies assigned to me and I can assure you they will all be for Bawumia now”, he disclosed.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Mr.  Ekow Felix Nkrumah, National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate Aspirant for Gomoa Central Constituency of the Central Region has been rejected by the vetting committee of the party. The committee argued that the aspirant filed his nomination papers Four(4) minutes late and therefore does not qualify to be vetted. Mr. Ekow Felix Nkrumah on Friday, October 13, 2023, visited the Central Regional NDC Secretariat in Cape Coast with a bus of his supporters for vetting and only to be told that he could not go through the vetting process because he was 4 minutes late during the submission of nomination forms.Narrating his ordeal to the media shortly after the vetting committees turned him away, he said “Obviously there is nothing anybody can do spiritually it won’t work, physically it won’t work”. “The day of the filling of nomination there was a technical error at the bank when I was paying my filling fees but due to time constraints I sent the nomination forms through my campaign member but he got to the party office at 5:04 pm instead of 5 pm resulting in the vetting committee withdrawing me from contesting the race”.The aspirant who is contesting the race with three others disclosed that he even pleaded with the constituency executives and leadership in the region to give him the opportunity to go through the vetting but his pleas proved futile.Mr. Ekow Nkrumah who had served for the party in several capacities including Former Deputy Communications Director of Gomoa Central, polling agent, spokesperson for the Mahama Campaign team at Gomoa Central, coordinator for the house-to-house campaign in the 2020 elections says he was expecting the party to consider his hard work and allow him to go through the process.“Even if am going to file my nomination and I was 4 minutes late at least they should consider my hard work in the party and give me a chance to contest the primaries” he begged.The Central Regional Chairman of NDC who doubles as the Member of the vetting committee, Prof Richard Kofi Asiedu stated that the party has procedures before one can file his nomination including time.He revealed that during the filing of nomination forms at Gomoa Central party office, the aspirant was 4 minutes late but due to the party rules and regulations the vetting committee failed to vet him.According to the Regional Chairman, “MP position is not the end of the world so there is the need to exercise patience since the party has better plans for him.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Akufo-Addos refusal to develop Ashanti Region deliberate Jantuah
Former Operations Officer of the defunct Youth Enterprise Support (YES) PV Dadson Jantuah has accused President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo of deliberately and calculatedly not developing the Ashanti region. Knowing the power and might of the region in terms of giving the New Patriotic Party (NPP) massive votes and always playing a decisive role as to who becomes president in the country, he indicates that President Akufo-Addo should have rewarded the region in a special way with transformational projects but has since failed to do so. Mr. Jantuah maintains that despite having several appointees from the government hailing from the region, they are just figureheads and not the real power brokers in the government. “You see the Kyei Mensahs, the Napos, the Dr Adutwums and even the Chief of Staff, Frema Oparah, you will think these people will bring development home to Ashanti but that is not the case in Nana Addo’s administration”, he lamented.“He just put them there with no power; that is just deliberate and calculated. The real power brokers who take and direct decisions in this NPP, are Ken Ofori-Atta, Gabby and the Nana Asante Bediatuos” he claimed“They command the power and authority in the NPP government now, they don’t want to see development in the region. This is very calculated by Akufo-Addo and this is bringing confusion in the party, but people are just quiet. Just look at this government and ask yourself which region has the most influential people in the government, they are there for all to see” he retorted.The Ashanti Region has been a focus for lack of development especially when it is regarded as the stronghold of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

VIDEO: Tension in Karaga over promise by NDC to reinstate Disputed Chief, Yaa Naa angry
Tension is said to rising in the Northern Region town of Karaga in the Northern Region after a former National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP), Hon. Alhassan Sualihu Dandaawa promised to restore a disputed regent to power if the party and John Mahama won the 2024 general elections. Naa Mahami Sumani had been the regent of Karaga for more than 20 years following the death of his father.  In 2020, however, as part of efforts to fully implement the Dagbon peace roadmap brokered by the three eminent chiefs led by the Asantehene, the Yaa Naa(overlord of Dagbon) enskinned Naa Abdulai Nantogmah as the Paramount Chief of the town. Naa Sumani was part of the contestants for the skin but lost. He then refused to abdicate, insisting the Karaga skin was reserved for the Mahami gate.He was dragged to the Northern Regional House of Chiefs which subsequently ruled against him in January this year.  Among the ruling of the House of Chiefs, Naa Sumani was given 48 hours to leave the Karaga Palace and seize from holding himself out as the paramount chief of the town.He initially agreed to the ruling but later rejected it and has since been occupying Karaga as a parallel authority.At a visit to his palace, the former NDC MP, Hon. Dandawa, said the NDC was in support of his decision to not accept the ruling of both the Yaa Naa and the Northern Regional House of Chiefs.‘I want to inform you not to worry yourself thinking about what has happened”, Mr Dandawa said.“You have been chosen already by God and anybody who refuses this and wants to fight you is only attempting to fight God. I can only urge you to leave everything to God.We in the NDC are always on the side of the truth. Eventually, truth will prevail”.What happened after Ghanaians voted against John Mahama? His works have vindicated him. Didn’t they even try to remove (your father) Naa Sumani? You didn’t choose yourself but God who chose you.What we pray for you is a long and healthy life. Pray for the NDC to win both the parliamentary and presidential elections so that you can reclaim what was stolen from you”.The former MP’s comments have sparked anger in the region with several reactions from regional stakeholders, including the Dagbon Youth Forum, which has issued a statement condemning the former legislature.Sources at the Gbewaa Palace have confirmed that Yaa Naa’s attention has been drawn to the audio.The Regional Security Council has also been notified.Watch full video of the former MP’s Speech belowSource: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Alan has destroyed his political career by resigning from NPP Hassan Ayariga
Founder and leader of the All People’s Congress( APC) Dr. Hassan Ayariga has described Alan Kyeremanten’s resignation from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as a selfish and nasty decision that has not only destroyed his political career and future but those of others such as his family, children and associates. Mr Ayariga noted that Mr Kyeremanten’s launch of the Movement for Change so as to contest the 2024 Presidential Elections as an independent candidate will be of no consequence after the 2024 elections since, in his estimation, Mr Kyeremanten will fade into oblivion. Mr Ayariga, who made the comments in an interview with Kofi TV, stressed that Alan Kyeremanten had a better political future with the NPP and should have persevered in the party despite the challenges. “The thing he didn’t think of is that: he has destroyed his own political career; he has destroyed the career of his family; he has destroyed the political career of his children; he has destroyed the political career of his friends that are around him, those who are going to resign and follow him. This is because, after this independent race, he is not going to go anywhere again because he is even old. So, he is pulling them out of their future. And they shouldn’t listen to him because it is selfishness,” he argued. He also debunked the notion that Alan Kyeremanten being an Asante means he will negatively impact the votes of the NPP in the 2024 General Elections. He argued that his inability to win in the Asante Region during the Super Delegates Conference is a testament to the fact that his being Asante has no influence on how Asantes will vote. Alan Kyeremanten has launched the Movement for Change and is set to run as an independent presidential candidate in the 2024 General Elections.

Ive no sympathy for UTV over NPP thugs invasion NDCs Joe Apenteng
Mr. Joe Apenteng, a member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Communication Team in the Ashanti Region see no reason to sympathize with the United Television (UTV) following an invasion by some New Patriotic Party (NPP) thugs. He indicates that the station deserves whatever happened to it considering the fact the same platform was used to denigrate former President John Dramani Mahama. Mr. Apenteng contends, that most of the guests like Ola Michael, A Plus and Mr. Logic are sympathizers of the NPP who even before 2016 took on John Dramani Mahama and the NDC unfairly singing the praises of Akufo-Addo and the NPP. According to him, after the failings of the Akufo-Addo administration, they are now trying to draw even by using the UTV and their United Showbiz platform to portray their aversion to the ills going on. He made his position known on Kumasi-based Ultimate 106.9 FM, monitored by MyNewsGh.com.“I don’t have a scintilla of sympathy for them (United Showbiz). They did the same to John Mahama, they called him all sorts of names and discussed him and the NDC in an unfair manner but nothing happened to them. They said Mahama was bad and that Nana Addo was good and they wanted him, have they seen what is happening to them”“The NPP is saying the program on UTV is disrespecting and insulting Bawumia and Nana Addo? What didn’t they do to Mahama? What is more insulting than calling Mahama incompetent? I don’t have sympathy for them at all. The NPP are just full of hoodlums and hooligans who think the country is for them. What didn’t A Plus do to the NDC and Mahama in this country; I thought prosperity was going to judge Mahama in future not knowing it’s going to be now. I am happy we are still all alive and witnessing this”, he said.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Alans inability to become an MP cost him at the Super Delegates Conference Kennedy Agyapong
A front runner in the flagbearership contest of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kennedy Agyapong has attributed the poor showing of Alan Kyeremanten in the Super Delegates election of the party to his inability to become a Member of Parliament (MP) on the ticket of the NPP. For him, Mr Kyeremanten’s inability to become an MP has greatly hampered his chances of becoming flagbearer of the NPP as evidenced in his poor performance at the Super Delegates Conference which whittled down the number of aspirants for the flagbearer position of the NPP from ten to five. Even though Mr Kyeremanten had been tipped to beat Kennedy Agyapong, he emerged third behind Kennedy Agyapong with far less votes than those of Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the winner and Kennedy Agyapong, who came second. For him Mr Kyeremanten’s laid-back nature, especially regarding his presence in the media, did not help his bid to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP) into the 2024 General Elections. “And I believe that Honourable Alan made the mistake of not being forced to become a Member of Parliament. For me, my consistency on radio and television in good and bad times has made me well-known,” Mr Agyapong said. Mr Kyeremanten has resigned from the NPP and has formed the Movement for Change in order to run for the presidency in 2024 as an independent candidate.

Mixed Reactions as Okyehene gives US Speech On Environment Amidst Galamsey in Backyard
The Okyehene Amoatia Ofori Panyin, the Chief of the Akyem Abuakwa traditional area gave a major speech on environment in the United States of America amidst his own struggles with illegal mining in his backyard. The Okyenhene gave the speech on the campus of Northeastern University in Boston on the topic Environment and Climate Change: Past, Present and Future. “To think that the world will soon become uninhabitable is scary. It will have an incredible impact on our children, leaving them with far shorter lives than today, and it cannot be business as usual,” he said in his address. The Chief has been fighting, threatening and warning chiefs in the Abuakwa Traditional area to stay off activities of illegal mining popularly referred to as ‘galamsey’, or face demotion and destoolment. His speech failed to make any noticeable impact in Ghana neither was it noticed or discussed apart from lone Graphic Publication and social media post by the Palace.Environmental watchers say not much has been achieved in the fight against illegal mining despite the fights waged by traditional leaders such as the Otumfuo and the Okyehene.The Okyehene once said the continuous involvement of chiefs aiding illegal miners in their various traditional areas has become a source of worry for him which needs urgent and punitive sanctions to preserve the environment and water bodies for the next generation.Recently, addressing Chiefs at a council of state meeting at the Ofori Panin Fie in Kyebi, the Okyehene warned that any chief found culpable will be destooled or demoted.“We are united by ecology, we need to respect nature, our forefathers engaged in mining, but not in the manner we are doing now, they were not struck down by constant disease outbreaks. They lived to be 85, 90 years and above. We are living longer, but we are getting sick because of these activities”.“The mercury used in galamsey activities is having implications on our health, stop the illegal mining, any chief who engages in galamsey will be destooled or demoted,” he warned.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Ghana Foreign Ministry Blocks X Replies After Abusive Backlash Over Pro-Israel Statement
The Ministry of Foreign of Affairs and Regional Integration of Ghana had to block its X handle from receiving replies after being abused online over its statement on the recent Israel Palestine conflict. The Ministry had released an official statement saying it stands with Israel in the wake of renewed hostility between Israel and Palestine over the Gaza strip. The statement which reached over 400,000 X users attracted very negative reactions and replies which prompted Ghana to disable the reply function. Many Ghanaians trooped to the page to abuse the Ministry with some using intemperate language against the government of Ghana. The Ministry quickly disabled the reply function of the Tweet on X allowing only those it follows or mentions to reply.As at press time this morning, the function remains disabled due to the abuse and insults on the President of Ghana and the Minister of Foreign Affairs herself from some section of Ghanaians. A subsequent statement announcing the safety of Ghanaians in Israel also had its reply function disabled by the Ministry. In the first statement that generated controversy, the government of Ghana reaffirmed its support to Israel, after a deadly attack by Hamas militants on Southern Israel.In the statement released on Sunday, October 8 by Ghana’s Foreign Affairs Ministry, the government said, “Ghana unequivocally condemns the attacks and calls on the Hamas leadership to immediately cease the attacks and withdraw its militants from southern Israel.”“While Ghana affirms its support for Israel’s right to exist and defend itself, it calls on the Israeli government to exercise restraint in its response to Hamas attacks”the statement noted.The government of Ghana, however called on the two sides to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to return to the negotiation table.Hamas militants from the Gaza Strip reportedly infiltrated into southern Israel to attack innocent Israeli civilians.Israel says more than 600 people have been killed and 100 kidnapped.In Gaza, at least 313 people have been killed following retaliatory Israeli air strikes, according to Palestinian officials.The Ministry’s resort to censure may attract attention of democracy and free speech observers globally as it is a public office funded by citizens’ taxes. Twitter formerly X introduced the reply censure feature because it claims “users feel more comfortable Tweeting and more protected from spam and abuse.It said allowing users to blocks replies prevented an average of three potentially abusive replies while only adding one potentially abusive Retweet with Comment. Twitter says it is a method to “block out noise”.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Nsiah Asare Joins NPP Running Mate Race As Frema, Ursula Lobby
Long before the flagbearership race of The New Patriotic Party (NPP) is over, Dr. Anthony Nsiah Asare has reportedly kicked off a submarine running mate campaign amidst tight competition. The Presidential Advisor On Health at The Office of The President, Dr. Nsiah-Asare is reportedly eyeing the number two slot should Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia emerge the flagbearer of the NPP. Surrogates and assigns of the Medical Practitioner turned politician are circulating flyers advertising his interest to be running mate to Dr. Bawumia with the hashtag “It is Possible”. The flyer shows Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia prominently with Dr. Nsiah Asare behind him both in suit and tie with the inscription “Break the 8” with their names underneath.Dr. Nsiah Asare has worked in leadership roles as Medical Superintendent at a District hospital, Medical Director at the Regional hospital, Chief Executive Officer at the Teaching Hospital, and as Director General of the Ghana Health Service. He qualified from the University of Ghana Medical School, Accra with an MB, ChB and is an alumnus of the Boston University, School of Public Health in the USA where he obtained his Certificate in Management Methods in International Health. Dr. Nsiah-Asare is a Fellow of the West African College of Surgeons (FWACS), a Fellow of the Ghana College of Surgeons, (FGCS), and a Fellow of the International College of Surgeons (FICS). He is also a Fellow of the Ghana Medical Association. Tight fight for number 2Dr. Nsiah Asare joins the likes of Frema Opare, Chief of Staff who is said to be very keen on the running mate slot as the country’s first female Chief of Staff. The former lawmaker is said to be touting her Ashanti heritage and her “mother touch” as a selling point to woo voters to help the Vice President win the main election should he win the November 4th votes. Frema Osei Opare is from a politically influential family and is originally from the town of Wiamoase in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. Others include Minister of Communication Ursula Owusu-Ekuful who is said to be a “personal friend” of the Vice President and counting on him to make her his number 2 on the ticket. Ursula Owusu’s critics say she is neither Presidential nor Vice Presidential and her attempts to rebrand since 2017 have backfired. Other names include Mathew Opoku Prempeh, Isaac Osei and Joe Osei OwusuSource: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

What Cecilia Dapaah told me Martin Kpebu breaks silence on viral PICTURE
Popular private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has reacted to a viral picture of him and the embattled former Minister for Sanitation Cecilia Dapaah, clarifying that he had no altercation with Ms Dapaah but she merely quizzed him on his public commentary on the case between her and the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP). In the widely-circulated picture, taken today [Wednesday, October 11, 2023], Ms Dapaah appears angry and seems to threaten Mr Kpebu with her left hand pointing to him. But in a social media post, Mr Kpebu denied having a confrontation with her at the court premises, explaining that Ms Dapaah was within her right to question him on his public commentary on her Court case. “Me den Cecilia Dapaah no get fight ooh. I have seen pictures of us in the corridor of the courthouse today. The interaction was not as bad as the picture portrays. Madam Dapaah and I are cool. Naturally, she is going through a lot so she only sought to quiz me about my commentaries on her case. She has a right to ask. There was no showdown,” he wrote.

Moment Cecilia Dapaah Allegedly Confronted Kpebu in Court
Former Sanitation Minister, Madam Cecilia Abena Dapaah and her lawyer Mrs. Victoria Barth confronted private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu in court today, the Law Platform has reported. The confrontation reportedly took place during a break when Justice Edward Twum adjourned proceedings to 3pm to rule on an application brought by Mad. Cecilia Dapaah against the Special Prosecutor for early hearing of the confirmation application filed by the Special Prosecutor. The lawyer For Madam Abena Dapaah was reportedly engaging Martin Kpebu about “prejudicial” remarks he made on the ongoing case. Madam Abena Dapaah who was quietly observing the exchange between the lawyers chimed in to calm the two lawyers down. The Ex Minister filed an interlocutory injunction application against the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) in an attempt to stop the Office from investigating and prosecuting her and her husband, Daniel Osei Kufuor on charges of suspected corruption and corruption-related offences.She is praying the court to also declare the reseizure of monies found in her Abelemkpe residence and the refreezing of her bank accounts as unfair and capricious.“A Declaration that the Respondent’s re-seizure of the money (initially seized from the Applicant’s home on 24/07/23) and re-freezing of Applicant’s bank accounts respectively on 5th September 2023 is unfair, unreasonable, capricious, arbitrary, and ultra vires the Respondent’s statutory powers under Act 959 relative to the constitutional provisions of Articles 23 and 296 of the Constitution, 1992.”Madam Dapaah’s lawyers are also seeking the court to issue “an Order prohibiting the Respondent from continuing the investigation of the Applicant and her husband for corruption or corruption-related offences.”Court documents filed by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) in September disclosed that Madam Dapaah used aliases to conceal transactions from undeclared real estate business and other transactions to justify the reseizure and refreezing of her bank account.But the former Minister described the claims as misleading.Cecilia Dapaah came into the limelight in July when it emerged that two of her house helps were before an Accra Circuit Court, for allegedly stealing monies and items running into millions of Ghana Cedis .Calls were made for her to resign and be investigated and she yielded to the public pressure and resigned from her position on July 22, 2023 .Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

NAPO major target of impending reshuffle?
Sources within the corridors of power have hinted that the Minister of Energy Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh known widely as NAPO could be the major target of the impending Ministerial reshuffle. Though no details have been given on when President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is expected to relieve some Ministers and assign others to new ministries, it has been established it would be soonest barring any last-minute changes. Deep-throat sources reveal to MyNewsGh.com that the Member of Parliament (MP) for Manhyia South is a possible target of the new changes to be announced. Reasons for the decision have been linked to his recent disagreement with certain deals at certain institutions under the Energy Ministry including Ghana National Petroleum Commission (GNPC) and Ghana Gas. The irreconcilable differences between the Minister and heads of these institutions is reported to have fueled the President’s decision to axe the Energy Minister. It would be recalled that the Pro-NPP Newspaper the Daily Statement early this week reported of the impending reshuffle by President Nan Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo with some prominent names in his Cabinet expected to be dropped.Sources at the presidency available to MyNewsGh.com indicate that the President is expected to make an announcement of the new ministerial list with some cabinet Ministers expected to be axed after this week’s meeting.Since his assumption of office on 7th January 2017, President Akufo-Addo has undertaken several ‘mini-reshuffles’. However, the impending reshuffle, according to our sources at Jubilee House, “will be expansive in nature.”“Expect the reassignment of some Ministers to different Ministries, expect some new and fresh faces, and expect the promotion of some deputy Ministers to the position of Ministers in this reshuffle,” the source revealed.What is not clear is when the announcement will be made, but sources indicate to the paper that “it will be very, very soon.”Just as he did in the past, President Akufo-Addo is expected to continue his tradition of pre-informing affected Ministers of their continuation in government, whether it is in the same Ministry or in a new Minister or inform them in person about the termination of their appointment.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Reshuffle Hints: Ambrose Dery Goes Home As Bryan, John Kumah, Jinapor Shift And More
News of an impending reshuffle has sent Minister of Interior Ambrose Dery into apprehension following reports he is one of the ministers to be moved among many others. The reports say Ambrose Dery survived past reshuffles by deploying top traditional rulers from his native Nandom among other lobbyists to prevail on President Akufo-Addo not to reshuffle him. This time around, with the 2024 election on the horizon, the President is said to be on course to name someone “better to run the Ministry more strongly and effectively”, a source told this portal. In February this year, the President’s mind was set to be made up to reshuffle Ambrose Dery to a Minister of State at the Presidency but this was thwarted after a last-minute intervention by sources this portal prefers not to name. More crucially, however, Mr. Ambrose Dery despite endorsing the forms of the Vice President was reportedly not supporting the Vice President at heart, party insiders suggest. Mr. Ambrose Dery in this reshuffle is expected to join his Karaga brother, Mohammed Amin Adam and O.B Amoah to serve as Ministers of State at Jubilee House.In February when news of his reshuffle emerged, Mr. Dery considered the reappointment as a “technical demotion” and pulled all his lobbying strings to stay in office at the Ministry of Interior instead of a Minister of State.More ReshuffleOther Reshuffle subjects include Bryan Acheampong who is said to be favoured by party hardliners to become Interior Minister.However, Mr. Acheampong faces a hurdle as Minister of National Security Albert Kan Dapaah is said to favour someone else to work within the sector.The President is said to trust Kan Dapaah and Dominic Nitiwul as key leaders in the security sector and may not move them despite pressures from some quarters to do so. On the contrary, Kan Dapaah is said to be deciding other Ministers’ fate.Mr. Bryan Acheampong was said to have repeatedly undermined Kan Dapaah as National Security Minister leading to his redesignation in Akufo-Addo’s first term. He was however called back to head the Agric sector and could be moved again.Other Minister’s who may be reportedly affected include Samuel Abu Jinapor, who has come under severe criticism for “arrogance” by party insiders due to what they say is “his recent wealth”. While loved By Akufo-Addo, sources say the President may move him to a less controversial sector to avoid a scandal.Information Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah may mind being demoted to a Deputy Finance Minister when John Kumah is elevated. The Information Minister is said to be prepping his CV for a future running mate and possible Presidential run.In 2021, Mr. Oppong Nkrumah who is said to he a “darling boy” of Chief of Staff Frema Opare, bid farewell to staff of the Information Ministry only to be brought back there. Ambitious, Oppong Nkrumah, a lawyer and finance person, had reportedly lobbied for the economic sector but was prevailed upon to stay at the Teachers’ Hall Area space he presently occupies.More soon…Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Free SHS Graduates Have Been Academically Outstanding Than Before 2016 Nana Addo
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has touted the graduates of the Free SHS program for being outstanding compared to their predecessors. The President was speaking at the 61st Conference of Heads of Assisted Secondary Schools (CHASS) in Accra on Wednesday, October 11, 2023. Comparing the record of performance between free SHS graduates and those before, he said they were brilliant and backed by data. “The 2022 WASSCE results of the third batch of Akufo-Addo graduates show 60.39 percent of students recording A1 to C6 in English as opposed to 51.6% in 2016. 62.45 % recording A1 to C6 in Integrated Science in 2022 as opposed to 48.35 % in 2016 with the 2022 results being a slight regression from the 2021 pass rate of 65.7%. 61.39 percent recorded A1 to C6 in Mathematics as compared to 33.12% in 2016 and 71.51% recording A1 to C6 in social studies as compared to 54.5 % in 2016.” he said.He said the future of Ghana would have been in danger without the Free SHS programme as qualified pupils could not enroll in school for financial reasons. “They could not afford the fees even though they had the qualifications. If this situation had persisted for a decade, one million people would have dropped out of school at the level of junior high school, an unacceptable outcome for any nation in the 20th century.“It would have been too dangerous for Ghana’s stability as we would have been building a future of hopelessness for our youth. Such a situation was intolerable, and my party and I were determined to end it.“That is one of the principal reasons for the introduction of the free senior high school policy in September 2017, eight months after I had taken office.,” he said.Speaking on access, he explained:“Access under the policy has gone from a population of 830,000 when I took office to 1.4 million today, which means that in effect we have been able to catch and retain the annual 100,000 drop out within the educational sector.“This has been a commendable development for the nation and for the young people. Furthermore, the results for each batch of the graduates whom I call the Akufo-Addo graduates, have surpassed those chalked in in 2016, prior to my assumption of office.“Quality, despite the increase in enrollment figures, has not declined. On the contrary, it has improved, and I want to use this opportunity to thank you warmly members of CHASS for the impressive results seen in the West African Senior High School Examinations since the commencement of the free senior high school policy in September 2017.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

United Showbiz has now turned into a cosmetic political show NPPs Acquah Gyasi
An administrator at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) in the Ashanti Region, Archibald Ntiri Acquah Gyasi, has described U TV’s United Showbiz show as cosmetic and now politically inclined. Speaking on Ultimate FM’s Cup of Tea Show on development at the UTV studios that saw some NPP youth invade the station seeking representation on the show and insisting the entertainment show is now political, Mr. Gyasi agreed with the request of the youth but did not support their approach. He however insisted that the once vibrant entertainment show has now turned into a political show doing the clear bidding of the opposition NDC, a posture that was captured in an official letter of the NPP to the management of UTV and the Despite Group.“The entertainment show is now a political show. It’s now a cosmetic political show, they say it’s for entertainment, but the host and guest do otherwise. Just watch them now and you will understand me. It’s now politics and nothing else”“I support the request of the young men. If it’s now a political show, be fair and balance it out just as it’s done in other places. I am here as an NPP speaking for the party and Joe is here as an NDC person that is the way to go” he addedWhile supporting the request of the NPP young men, Mr. Gyasi condemned the manner of their request and the turn of events.“I understand the frustration of the young men when their party’s letter to UTV is torn into pieces by A Plus, a guest on the show. I am wondering how the letter got to him for him to destroy it”“I don’t subscribe to the way they invaded the station; the party has condemned it. How they went about it is wrong, but I hope the police will give them a fair hearing too”, he stressed.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

A Plus playing mind games with the NDC Joe Apenteng warns
Mr. Joe Apenteng is cautioning the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) to be wary of the musician now turned politician, A Plus born Kwame Asare Obeng. The leading NDC Communicator in the Ashanti Region holds the view that he is the type in the social setting of the country who is only hopping to places of opportunity and milking the system. “I watched a video of A Plus and it was his wedding, all the big wigs of NPP were there. What has changed?  If no contracts were taken from him, would he be out there criticizing this government?  I don’t trust him; we should be watchful of his type”, he warned. “Was he not the same person who was parading himself as a musician singing and taking on politicians only to turn and sing to criticize only the NDC?  Now that he is not enjoying it again, he is pretending to speak in favour of the NDC. He is just playing a mind game; he just wants opportunity that is all”, he reiterated. Kwame A Plus has been very critical of the Akufo-Addo administration in recent times using virtually every platform he gets to respond or pick on governments on their failures.This culminated in the tearing into shreds of an NPP letter to Despite Media group to change its United Showbiz entertainment content direction as it has now shifted its attention from entertainment.The party claims NDC surrogates are now the only guest of the station, who do not discuss entertainment issues but partisan politics.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

NPP Executives arrested over UTV invasion cooperating with Police Salam Mustapha
It has emerged that among the Sixteen (16) suspects arrested in connection with the invasion of United Television (UTV) were some constituency executives of the New Patriotic Party (NPP). The National Youth Organiser of the NPP, who confirmed this on Accra-based Neat Fm, disclosed that all suspects were currently on bail and are cooperating with police investigators. “They have been released on bail and are cooperating with the police who are conducting their investigations. What they did is a bailable offence so they could not have still been in custody”, he disclosed.He promised the full cooperation of the suspects in the matter, discounting claims they had been left off the hook as suggested by some persons.Salam Mustapha also took the opportunity to condemn the actions of the youth and some of the NPP executives, indicating that they could have channeled their grievances in a better manner.“We accept that the invasion of the TV station was improper, and I take full responsibility for my men. When police officers misconduct themselves it is the IGP who is blamed so is the Chief of Defense Staff held responsible for the excesses of his men. When the youth under men misconduct, I cannot be absolved of blame so take it like I am the one and forgive me”, he pleaded.Giving assurance such incidents will not be repeated in the future he said” I can assure you that what happened will not repeat itself because we made them understand that radio or TV stations determine their content for audience and there is little we can do in that respect. If United Showbiz is gradually turning political, there is a way we can handle the matter rather than resorting to violence or any form of aggression”Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Cabinet Ministers face sack in a looming Ministerial reshuffle
Barring any last-minute changes, President Nan Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is expected to embark on a Ministerial reshuffle with some prominent names in his Cabinet expected to be dropped. Sources at the presidency available to MyNewsGh.com indicate that the President is expected to make an announcement of the new ministerial list with some cabinet Ministers expected to be axed after this week’s meeting. Since his assumption of office on 7th January 2017, President Akufo-Addo has undertaken several ‘mini-reshuffles’. However, the impending reshuffle, according to our sources at Jubilee House, “will be expansive in nature.”“Expect the reassignment of some Ministers to different Ministries, expect some new and fresh faces, and expect the promotion of some deputy Ministers to the position of Ministers in this reshuffle,” the source revealed.What is not clear is when the announcement will be made, but sources indicate to the paper that “it will be very, very soon.”Just as he done in the past, President Akufo-Addo is expected to continue his tradition of pre-informing affected Ministers of their continuation in government, whether it is in the same Ministry or in a new Minister or inform them in-person about the termination of their appointment.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

UTV Invasion: I take full responsibility for the conduct of party hooligans Salam Mustapha
National Youth Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Salam Mustapha has disclosed that he takes full responsibility for the conduct of the party’s youth last Saturday in the studios of United Television (UTV). He disclosed that the conduct of the youth is not justifiable and as the head of the youth in the party, he should be blamed for the ugly incident that truncated the live transmission of the show. Speaking on Neat FM monitored by MyNewsGh.com, he reiterated that the conduct of the party’s youth was improper and they could have channeled their grievances in a better way.“We accept that the invasion of the TV station was improper and I take full responsibility for my men.

Dr. Dominic Ayine, NPP MP aspirant clash over boreholes
Former Deputy Minister of Justice and Attorney-General, Dr. Dominic Akuritinga Ayine and New Patriotic Party (NPP) Parliamentary Candidate for Bolga East Constituency, Mathew Silas Amoah are on a collision course as to who has constructed more boreholes than the other. The NPP candidate has over the period belittled the contributions of the lawmaker to the development of the area, indicating that it is lagging behind and should have advanced. Mathew Silas Amoah who is urging residents to kick Dr. Dominic Ayine out in 2024 polls and bring him to represent the constituency, argues that though he is not a lawmaker he has overwhelmingly performed. But the legal brain who would not take any of that, noted that almost every significant development witnessed in the constituency is creditable to him and his party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC). “If you do 2 boreholes, compare to someone who has done over 60 boreholes and you go and sit on the radio and say that you are performing, what kind of performance is that?” he questioned.“Your government is in power, they have done boreholes that they cannot even complete, the NPP government dug boreholes around this constituency, they have not fixed pumps and the communities are not even accessing water”. He hit back adding that he does not stand on the same pedestal as the NPP candidate as far as development of the area is concerned.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

NDCs Victory in Navrongo Central in 2024 is a necessity outgoing MP
The outgoing Member of Parliament (MP) for Navrongo Central, Sampson Tangombu Chiragia is optimistic the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will retain the seat in the 2024 polls. Hon. Sampson Tangombu Chiragia who won the seat in 2020 from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) after defeating its parliamentary candidate then Upper East Regional Minister, Ms Tangoba Abayage will not be returning to parliament in 2024. This is as a result of the fact he was toppled during the NDC primaries in the constituency making him a one-term MP. Several months after his painful defeat, the lawmaker is promising to play a key role in ensuring the seat does not revert to the NPP. Speaking on Bolgatanga-based A1 radio, he said “Victory for the NDC in Navrongo Central is not an option; it’s a necessity. We must all come together, put our hands on deck, and work tirelessly to secure this victory in the 2024 elections. Above all, the victory of the NDC is non-negotiable and must be delivered at all costs in December 2024 to kick out the failed and disappointing Akuffo Addo-Bawumia government.”Hon Chiragia affectionately known as S.T.C is serving his first term as MP for the constituency and was seeking the mandate of delegates to seek re-election in the 2024 Elections on the party’s ticket.But during the party’s primaries in May this year, his hopes were dashed after he polled 447 votes, losing the ticket to Simon Akibange Aworigo, who obtained 475 votes.The other two contenders in the race, Pius Ayemva Avio and Jacob Paarechuga Anankware scored 135 and 88 votes respectively.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

VIDEO: Polling station Executives in Ken Agyapongs constituency declare support for Bawumia
Hundreds of New Patriotic Party (NPP) delegates in the Assin Central Constituency have declared their support for Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia as the National Delegates Conference to elect a flagbearer for the party draws closer. The delegates, including polling station chairmen and other executives, explained that Dr Bawumia is the best among the four remaining aspirants to represent the party at next year’s election and has all it takes to win the presidential election for the NPP. They also noted that Dr Bawumia is the backbone behind the major achievements of the Akufo-Addo-led administration and that makes him capable of leading the party and subsequently winning the 2024 General Elections. For them, Dr Bawumia’s promise to make ten appointments each from each constituency will ensure that as executives and committed members of the party, they benefit from such appointments. “We are going to the polls to elect a flagbearer on November 4, 2023. And an election is to declare your stand and make a choice. Among the four aspirants for the flagbearer position, the one I think is best fit to win power for the NPP in 2024 is Dr Mahamudu Bawumia. This is because if we look at the major achievements of the Akufo-Addo administration, they have become possible because of the support he has enjoyed from Dr Bawumia as his vice…That is why my people and I have met here and have thrown our support fully behind Dr Mahamudu Bawumia. We are confident that when he wins the primaries, he will definitely win the presidential election in 2024 for the NPP,” Raphael Acquah, Chairman of Wurakese  DA Polling station explained in.One other lamented how the party in the Constituency has neglected them and how they now find hope in the actions and promises of Dr Bawumia. This, he noted, is why Dr Bawumia is their choice come November 4, 2023, when they elect a flagbearer for the NPP at the National Delegates Conference.“Some of us the delegates have thrown our support behind Dr Mahamudu Bawumia because some of us have not benefited from the party even though we have served the party for many years in the Constituency…So we have decided to support Dr Bawumia because of his commitment to getting delegates at the Constituency level to benefit from the party. His pledge to make ten appointments from every constituency will be of immense benefit to us all,” Mr John Yaw Yeboah and Secretary for Mempasem Polling station argued in Twi.Out of 519 delegates in the Assin Central Constituency, the constituency of Kennedy Agyapong, Dr Bawumia’s archrival in the flagbearership race, about 310 delegates have thrown their support behind Dr Bawumia.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Alan ran away from disgraceful defeat at NPP November 4 Primaries Hassan Ayariga
Businessman and former Flagbearer of the People’s National Convention (PNC), Dr. Hassan Ayariga holds the view that resigned New Patriotic Party (NPP) member, Alan Kyeremanten perceived an impending embarrassing defeat at the November 4, Presidential Primaries reason for his action. He indicates that the reasons he ascribed for his resignation were not cogent enough to warrant his action considering the fact he has been part of the current administration since its formation in 2017. “You predicted that you are going to lose the primaries and you run away and you go and form a Movement that you want to be independent. You are already a loser. I told you Kennedy Agyapong is dangerous. People were expecting Alan Kyeremanten to beat Kennedy Agyapong but you saw what happened”, he asked in an interview on Kofi TV re-streamed by MyNewsGh.com. He added that Alan is scared of the consequences of the November 4 primaries which informed his decision to quit ahead of time. “Going into November 4, he is scared he might lose again. For him, the easiest way is to break away and contest as an independent candidate which is the easiest way. Kofi if you want you can become an Independent Candidate and I can file for you so the media will vote for you so we see the results you make”, he challenged.August 26, 2023, Super Delegates ConferenceMr Alan Kyeremanten placed third in the NPP Super Delegates Congress held on Saturday, August 26, when he polled 95 votes representing 10.82 per cent of the total votes cast in the election won by the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia who won 629 votes, representing 68.15 per cent of the total valid votes.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

What at all does Alan want Hassan Ayariga asks
The Founder of the All People’s Congress (APC), Dr. Hassan Ayariga is wondering what former Minister for Trade and Industry, Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanten is seeking to achieve in life. He warns that his decision to break away from the New Patriotic Party(NPP) with the intent to contest the 2024 elections as an independent candidate will cost him more than he anticipates. Speaking to Kofi TV in a re-streamed interview by MyNewsGh.com, he observed that he has been one of the longest serving Ministers under President John Agyekum Kufuor to current President. “What at all does Alan want? You have been made a Minister under this current government. If this government is bad you are part of it. You cannot say you were a trade minister; Look at the Ministry of Trade what have they done? Look at the prices of goods and services on the market, you have held that position what have you done? Let us look at your achievement as a Minister, if you think that you are too good why is the Ministry you are handling suffering? You are the one to blame because you cannot say you want to bring in policies and the President will say no. It is your Ministry and you should be able to manage it”, he said. It would be recalled that Alan Kyeremanten a fortnight ago resigned from the NPP to form the Movement for Change with the butterfly as a symbol to contest the 2024 polls as an independent candidate. Citing reasons culminating his decision, he claimed hostility and brutality toward him and his supporters, NPP’s National Council’s disregard for the rule of law, Hijacking of NPP by some persons and Ghana’s rising unemployment figures Source: MyNewsGh.com Thanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

My support for Bawumia as a National Council Member is my democratic right Awuku
Former National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Sammi Awuku has disclosed that his support for the candidature of Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to lead the party as its flagbearer for the 2024 elections is his democratic right. According to him, though he is a member of the National Council of the party representing the Eastern Region, it is his right to decide on which candidate to support to lead the party just like the others. Rubbishing some propaganda against him on Accra-based Peace FM, the Director General of the National Lottery Authority (NLA) stated that no one can be intimidated or coerced into supporting a particular candidate as claimed by some of the aspirants and their supporters.“I am a representative of the Eastern Region on the National Council together with Boakye Agyarko, Dr. Annor plus the Regional Executives. Dr Annor was helping Hon Alan Kyeremanten, Hon Boakye Agyarko was an aspirant and I was supporting Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia but we all represent Eastern Region on the National Council. We all did not come to a compromise to support one candidate. This implies there can never be intimidation on the National Council”, he disclosed.Asked why all failed to support one candidate he responded” it is democracy and we are not barred from supporting our preferred candidates and there is absolutely nothing wrong in that respect. You have a vote at the National Council”It would be recalled that one of the reasons the founder of the Movement for Change cited for his exit from the NPP was acts of intimidation prior and during the Super Delegates Conference on August 26, 2023.“After having carefully analysed the results of the said elections, it is absolutely clear to me from events leading to, during and after the elections, that the Special Delegates Conference was strategically and tactically skewed in favour of one particular Aspirant.“The pronouncements made by some leading Members of our Party both before and after the elections, also lend weight to my observations”, he said in a statement issued yesterday after he cancelled a scheduled public address. Mr Kyeremanten placed third in the NPP Super Delegates Congress held on Saturday, August 26, when he polled 95 votes representing 10.82 per cent of the total votes cast in the election won by the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia who won 629 votes, representing 68.15 per cent of the total valid votes.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

NPP is a stubborn political party Great Seer speaks from the spirit world
A popular Kumasi-based spiritualist and seer of the spiritual realm, Great Seer Mills has suggested that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is a stubborn party that fails to heed spiritual directions. Making the claim on Kumasi-based Ultimate 106. FM monitored by MyNewsGh.com, the Great Seer said in times past, he gave several spiritual directions to the NPP but all have fallen on deaf ears. He mentions former MP for Offinso Ben Abdullah, the 1st Deputy Speaker and MP for Bekwai among others he has given spiritual directions to but they failed to act upon it and some of the consequences is what is happening within the party.Spiritualist Mills noted that some of his spiritual directions are as far back as 2016 and even ahead of the 2020 general elections but all to no avail. “This NPP is just stubborn, anything you tell them they rubbish it. I have been to parliament and met high-profile NPP people and told them about developments with the party that have been revealed to me in the spirit world but they refuse to listen” “I have engaged the Bekwai MP, I have engaged former Offinso MP, Ben Abdullah. I even told him he would lose his seat and that , Nana Addo would still give him an appointment or this happened but they failed to act on what I told them” “As I speak to you now, the NPP flag is lying on the floor spiritually and the elephant is walking back to the bush, this is serious but they are failing to act”, he claimed. When asked if the fortunes of the NPP can be altered if they decide to follow up and see him about the spiritual revelations, Great Seer Mills noted that the level of spiritual destruction for the party is alarming.“From what I see, things are bad for the NPP, the level of destruction is so much and it can cause them a lot. I can say out of 100% things are that bad, the level of spiritual destruction spiritually is almost 99%, their chances of a positive fortune is just about 1%” he said.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Hes Not Lying Chris Vincent Praises Bawumia After Testing Ghana E-travel Feature
Founding Editor of the Celebrities Lifestyle Blog and Lawyer Chris Vincent has heaped Praises on Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia for the Ghana Card’s e-travel feature. According to the journalist, a friend of his successfully checked in to travel to Ghana with a Ghana Card as he was unable to find his British Passport. “So, I can confident say that, our digitalisation man was not lying to us. This means, you don’t really need a Ghanaian passport if you have a passport of another country where you reside. Just use your Ghana Card alongside your foreign passport. When my Ghanaian passport expires, I wouldn’t probably renew it—I will stick to Ghana Card and my other passport. ” He wrote.Before my flight takes off, let me say—Bawumia’s Ghana Card really works.My friend, with whom I am travelling with to Ghana was supposed to pick me up at 6am today. When he was not at my end by 6:30, I called to find out what was happening.He sounded distressed. He couldn’t find his Ghanaian Passport and he does not have a visa to Ghana in his British Passport too.He was anxiously searching for his passport and I kept asking, where did you put it, when was the last time you saw it and why didn’t you pack this last night?And then I asked: do you have a Ghana Card? He said YES!Then I said: you can use that to travel to Ghana—at least that is what Bawumia claims.He asked: are you sure? And I replied—let’s put Bawumia’s words to test—if we get there and they don’t accept it at the check-in desk as a Ghanaian travel document, I will write about it.We got to Terminal 5 of Heathrow Airport and showed his Ghana Card as evidence that he is a Ghanaian who does not need a visa to travel to Ghana.Bingo: he was checked-in, and we are on the flight now.So, I can confident say that, our digitalisation man was not lying to us. This means, you don’t really need a Ghanaian passport if you have a passport of another country where you reside.

Contracts Sourcing: Meet PPA CEO Who Replaced A.B Adjei Whos Also Under Fire
The Approvals of various contracts under the Public Procurement Authority (PPA) have come under scrutiny by members of the Public with Frank Mante, Public Procurement Authority CEO under fire. It will be recalled that following the resignation of his predecessor Mr. A.B. Adjei under dubious circumstances that is still in court, Frank Mante was appointed Acting Chief Executive Officer(CEO) of the PPA in July 2019 before he was confirmed by President Akufo-Addo in November 2021. Mr. Frank Mante has largely stayed out of the public view despite his outfit’s approval of colossal single and sole-sourcing contracts for State companies who have all come under attack and criticism during the recent #OccupyJulorbiHouse protest. The latest report indicates nearly 80 percent of contract approvals submitted by Ministries, Departments and Agencies to the PPA were either sole Sourced or single Sourced. Data analysis by activist Ketze Soze based on a report on the website of the PPA with a breakdown of various contracts awarded indicated that out of Ghs55billion worth of contracts through the PPA for approvals, over Ghs43billion was sole Sourced. According to the data which covers the procurement activities of state and state-owned companies, most of the sole Sourced requests came from COCOBOD, the Electoral Commission of Ghana, the Middle Belt Development Authority and the Ghana Revenue Authority all of which were approved by the PPA. These revelations come at a time when Ghanaians are angry about the abuse of taxpayers’ money through procurement. In 2016 when he was campaigning for President, Nana Akufo-Addo said that when he comes to power, he will ensure that government projects and contracts are not awarded through sole sourcing. According to Akufo-Addo, “the era of sole sourcing will come to an end.” Prior to his appointment, the now under-fire CEO served as a Deputy Chief Executive -Technical/ Operations at the PPA. Prior to joining PPA, Mante served as the Procurement Director at the Millennium Development Authority (MiDA), Ghana and he was responsible for all the procurement and contract administration activities under the Power Compact (Compact II) with total procurement estimated at US$ 535million. Per a CV sighted by MyNewsGh.com, Frank Mante also worked with Crown Agents Ghana Limited between 2012-2017 as the Project Procurement Manager, Team Leader and eventually Country Manager during which period, he provided procurement support to DFID, USAID, JSI, AfDB, Ecobank Group and many public institutions in Ghana.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Ghs43Billion or US$3.8Billion Worth of Contracts Sole Sourced From 2017 Report on PPA
Nearly 80 per cent of contracts approvals submitted by Ministries, Departments and Agencies to the Public Procurement Authority (PPA) were either sole Sourced or single-sourced, a report has uncovered. Data analysis by Ketze Soze based on a report using information published by the PPA on its website with a breakdown of various contracts awarded indicated that out of Ghs55billion worth of contracts through the PPA, over Ghs43billion was sole Sourced. According to the data which covers the procurement activities of state and state-owned companies, most of the sole Sourced requests came from COCOBOD, the Electoral Commission of Ghana, the Middle Belt Development Authority and the Ghana Revenue Authority all of which were approved by the PPA.

Im sorry for being harsh to you Kennedy Agyapong apologises to Mahama
Maverick, tough-talking Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin Central and flagbearer aspirant of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) Kennedy Agyapong has rendered an unqualified apology to former President John Mahama for being harsh and uncharitable to him because of partisan politics. Mr Agyapong regretted his failure to reciprocate John Mahama’s goodness and kindness. Mr Agyapong described John Mahama as a wonderful person who treated him with love and respect. He stressed that as a fallible being, he had no issue admitting his mistakes and publicly apologizing to John Mahama for being unfair to him by way of the harsh words he had previously used on him. Mr Agyapong voiced the public apology while speaking on Starr FM’s StarrChat programme on Thursday, October 5, 2023. “You see, I have learned a lot in politics. I want to take this opportunity to apologize to President Mahama…You know because of NDC and NPP, the way he has handled me and the way I have spoken harsh words and all, I think that I have not been fair to Mahama. He’s such a wonderful person…I apologize I am a human being. I think that if I recount back my relationship with him and all, I want to say I am sorry,” he told the host of the programme Bola Ray.Mr Agyapong is one of the fiercest critics of former President John Mahama. He became especially, vitriolic and ferocious in his criticism of John Mahama prior to the 2016 General Elections.Now though, he has admitted that upon reflection, he did wrong by John Mahama and has publicly apologized.Mr Agyapong is a formidable contender for the flagbearer position of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) and could face John Mahama if he wins the November 4 National Delegates Conference of the party.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Mahama is the livewire of the NPP and keeping them alive NDCs Joe Apenteng
Former President John Dramani Mahama has been described as the livewire keeping the New Patriotic Party(NPP). The assertion is made by Ashanti Regional Communications Member Joe Apenteng who says without the mention of Mr. Mahama’s name in any NPP communication and strategy the party is irrelevant. The NDC man notes that, instead of the NPP focusing on righting the wrongs of their administration and delivering a better Ghana as promised, they are rather taking an interest in denigrating John Mahama he considers a nobleman. He was speaking on Ultimate FM in Kumasi monitored by MyNewsGH.com. when he stressed “Let me make it clear here and now, John Mahama, scares the NPP. He is their nightmare” “Mahama is the oxygen of the NPP without him, that party is dead. He makes the party thick, there is no communication or strategy of theirs that they don’t try to run him and the NDC achievement.” Mr. Apenteng argues that Mahama will go down as one of the most impactful leaders Ghana has ever had, adding prosperity will judge that. “Time will tell. John Mahama will go down in history as one of the best leaders of our time. The NPP and their utter clueless government has shown that there were empty and it’s just all about talk” Ghanaians are divided over the impact of the NPP government under Nana Addo with some suggesting it may go down as one of the worst administrations ever in the country. However, for some, the party was on track until the twin global disasters of COVID-19 and the Russian-Ukrainian war.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

#OccupyBOGProtest: The BOG Governor reacted to the protest like an arrogant child Manasseh
Award-winning investigative journalist Manasseh Azure Awuni has chastised the Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr. Ernest Addison for describing protesters who demanded that he resign from his position as “hooligans” and people engaged in “completely unnecessary” pursuits. Mr. Azure Awuni asserted that the Governor’s speech lacked intelligence and his conduct was like that of an arrogant child. On October 3, 2023, thousands of demonstrators led the Minority in Parliament embarked on the #OccupyBoGProtest demanding that the Governor and his deputies resign for mismanaging the Bank of Ghana. But in reaction, Dr Addison said that the demonstration “was completely unnecessary” and that “the Minority in Parliament have many channels to channel their grievances in civilized societies, not through demonstrations in the streets as hooligans.” Reacting to his comments on social media, Mr Azure Awuni wrote: “The BoG governor should, at least, speak with some intelligence. He’s reacted like an arrogant child.”Dr Addison’s comments have drawn much criticism from some members of the public, especially on social media.“Where in the world, save Umuofia[Ghana] can a public officer get away with characterizing alutants as hooligans?” Prof Stephen Kwaku Asare wondered.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Founder of the Movement for Change, Mr. John Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanten has been questioned over his sudden U-turn and subsequent lamentations over the very system he was part of. Ashanti Regional Deputy Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Baah Acheamfour described him as a hypocrite for now trying to appear clean and absolve himself of blame. According to Baah Acheamfour, Alan Kyeremanten who was the Trade Minister under the Akufo-Addo government, kept quiet when some citizens were killed during the 2020 elections because he wanted power and also needed his position as Minister.“Eight (8) people died in the 2020 election, Alan Kyeremanten didn’t complain but when your agent was slapped in the eye now you begin to complain; because you wanted to be the trade minister”, Baah Acheamfour said.“Gregory Afoko is still in prison you were here when his lawyers said that he is going blind did you complain” he asked and wondered the kind of hypocrisy he is currently showcasingAlan John Kwadwo Kyeremanten resigned from the NPP presidential race after the special delegated election where one of his polling agents was assaulted.In a statement to resign, Mr Kyerematen said, “After having carefully analyzed the results of the said elections, it is absolutely clear to me from events leading to, during and after the elections, that the Special Delegates Conference was strategically and tactically skewed in favour of one particular Aspirant”.He also said the level of intimidation of varying intensity, directly and indirectly, unleashed on a significant number of Delegates at various Voting Centers across the sixteen regions, is unprecedented in the history of the NPP.“The fact that my Polling Agent in the North East region has suffered severe damage to his eyesight, arising from his bold and courageous effort to ensure compliance with the very rules and regulations for the conduct of the elections as approved by the Presidential Elections Committee, will forever remain a dark spot in the history of internal elections within the Party”, Alan Kyeremanten said.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Ghanaians are calling for change”, Baah Acheamfour stated.He further disclosed that 2024 the elections is going to be the second independence for Ghanaians from the hardship under the Akufo-Addo’s rule.“Nkrumah chose Mahama to lead Ghana for our second independence from Akufo-Addo”, he said.“The 2024 elections the is a second independence for Ghanaians and it is unfortunate that Dr Kwame Nkrumah is no more.

Stop Insulting Alan Asiedu Nketiah Orders NDC Members
National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC)Johnson Asiedu Nketiah has questioned why his party members insult Alan Kyerematen, independent Presidential candidate for the 2024 election. On September 25, 2023, Alan Kyerematen, a prominent member of Ghana’s ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), resigned from the party to run for president as an independent candidate. Kyerematen, who served as Minister of Trade and Industry under President Nana Akufo-Addo, had previously run for the NPP’s presidential nomination in 2014 and 2019, but lost both times. In his resignation speech, Kyerematen said that he had decided to run as an independent because he believed that he was the best person to lead Ghana into the future. Following his resignation, some members of his party as well as opposition members have criticized him. But the National Chairman of the NDC believes Alan Kyerematen and people like Nyaho Nyaho Tamakloe should not be criticized or insulted because they are fighting a battle for Ghana’s safe future. “I hear some of our members insulting people like Alan Kyerematen and others like him,” He said. He added that Alan is “helping Ghana to get rid of a dictator and the dictator’s party…. This dictator is pretending to be a democrat…. Using state institutions to silence voice of dissent.. So Alan is helping Ghana in reality” Asiedu Nketiah said on Angel FM restreamed by MyNewsGh.com.Asiedu Nketia added that in his opinion, insulting Alan Kyerematen was needless because “shooting some birds is a waste of bullet…. ” Alan Kyerematen’s resignation has been a major blow to the NPP, which is facing an uphill battle to win re-election in the 2024 presidential election. The party has been criticized for its handling of the economy and for a series of corruption scandals.Kyerematen is a popular figure in Ghana and is seen by many as a potential alternative to the two main parties, the NPP and the National Democratic Congress (NDC). However, he will face a number of challenges in his bid to become president, including the difficulty of mounting a nationwide campaign without the support of a major political party.It remains to be seen whether Kyerematen’s resignation will lead to other high-profile members of the NPP leaving the party. If so, it could further weaken the NPP’s chances of winning re-election in 2024.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Prove Bawumia is using state funds for campaigns Kennedy Agyapong challenged
New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer aspirant, Kennedy Agyapong has been challenged to prove allegations to the effect that Vice President Mahamudu Bawmia is using state funds for his campaign. A leading member of Bawumia’s Campaign Team Sammi Awuku who was reacting to the allegations leveled by the Assin Central lawmaker, indicated that his claims are unsubstantiated and should treated with the contempt it deserve. “What is the prove the Vice President is campaigning for the party’s flagbeearership with state resources?  You cannot make such claims and get away with it. I know they have launched an app and soliciting funds for the campaign.”, he argued. Asked on Accra-based Peace FM if the Vice President uses his official vehicles and would be given state security during the campaign tour he responded “Let’s be clear, former President Mahama will be campaigning next year for the presidency with all the protocols accorded him. He is entitled to a dispatch, he is entitled to state security. The fact that Dr. Bawumia is contesting to be Vice flagbearer does still not mean he is not Vice President. President Mahama in 2024 will not ask the state to withdraw state protocols given to him because he is contesting” Mr. Kennedy Agyapong has consistently claimed the Vice President is using state funds for his campaigns but has not been able to substantiate the allegation. Sammi Awuku however observes that the fact that Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia enjoys certain privileges and is not enough ground for his opponents to level such accusations against him.

Leader of the Minority Group in Parliament, Cassiel Ato Forson has expressed his disgust at the Governor of the Bank of Ghana and his two deputies for their failure to receive their petition. The Minority Caucus in Parliament and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) led a protest today to demand the resignation of the governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr. Ernest Addison, and his two deputies. The action follows the Central Bank’s loss of GH¢60.81 billion in the 2022 fiscal year and the use of over $250 million to construct a new headquarters at North Ridge.The Minority Group was expecting to meet the Governor or his two deputies to present their petition to them; however, the Governor sent the Bank’s head of security to receive the petition in his stead.Addressing the press, Ato Forson indicated that it is total disrespect and disregard for the Minority for the Governor and his Two Deputies to refuse to meet them when they had informed them earlier about their action.“Let me say that I feel very disrespected as the opposition leader in Parliament because we demanded to present the petition to the Governor of the Central Bank of Ghana. He has two deputies, and they have all disrespected us.”They have mismanaged teh affairs of the Central Bank; they have mismanaged the affairs of monetary policy and today Ghana our beloved country is on its knees, you are not responsible and we will not give you our petition,” he said.“Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Presence of Niger MPs at ECOWAS Parliament comes under scrutiny
The presence of some lawmakers from Niger at the Second Extraordinary Session of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) parliament is being scrutinized by member states. Niger automatically loses its membership in the ECOWAS Parliament following a military takeover on July 26, 2023. It would be recalled the Presidential Guard detained President Mohamed Bazoum and the Presidential Guard Commander General Abdourahamane Tchiani proclaimed himself the leader of the military junta shortly after confirming the Coup D’etat a success.A member of Ghana’s delegation Hon Emmanuel Kwasi Bedzrah stated emphatically that the participation of their colleagues from Niger will come under serious and strong discussion despite the coup in Niger.“The Niger issue is murkier because the Authority of Heads of States and Government says Niger is not suspended from ECOWAS but the military junta in Niger is telling ECOWAS they are not part of ECOWAS, they have exited,” he said“All because the Authority of Heads of States say they do not recognize the Coup that has happened. It is laughable. How long can we be going round this circle? The coup has happened, the President is no longer the president”, Mr Kwasi Bedzrah explained“We should accept that Niger is no longer a member of ECOWAS because as has been done to our brothers and sisters from Burkina Faso, Mali and Guinea, the same thing should be done to Niger”. He stressed.According to him, the issue came up at the seminar, but the larger view was that it was the seminar and should come up at the Extraordinary session”.He was therefore quick to point out that, “we are not raising the issue because we are not happy, they are here, and it is all because if you are an elected MP from ECOWAS parliament your national government cannot prevent you from coming to the Parliament.”Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Ken Agyapong Draws Bawumia into Ministers Alleged Purchase of US House For 2nd Wife
Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong has accused Greater Accra Regional Minister Henry Quartey of betrayal making references to the Minister’s second wife in the United States and a house they purchased. Agyapong made the allegations in a speech to a gathering in the United States, where he was on a recent campaign tour revealing that he had to top up for the Minister to be able to afford the US House. Kennedy Agyapong said he helped Henry Quartey at a time when Bawumia was nowhere to be found but it appears the Minister now supports Bawumia whole denigrating he (Kennedy Agyapong). Kennedy Agyapong said that Quartey had become arrogant and was using his position as regional minister to enrich himself. “Henry Quartey, because of the big positions I secured for him, today he claims he is a regional minister… ” Agyapong said.“He sold one piece of land to me for US$200,000 around UPSA, which has become the subject of litigation,” he added.Speaking on the house for his second wife, Agyapong said Quartey took a loan from Adom Africa market to buy a house for his second wife in America and needed a top up which he provided.“When you wanted to buy a house for your second wife in America, I helped you to secure a loan at Adom Africa market, where was Bawumia?” Agyapong asked.Agyapong threatened to expose more about Quartey if he continued to attack him.“Today, he refers to me as a crazy MP who wants to become president. God will deal with Henry Quartey. If he plays with me, the things I would disclose about him,” Agyapong said.Quartey has not yet responded to Agyapong’s allegations.Agyapong’s allegations against Quartey are serious, but he has not provided any evidence to support them.If the allegations are true, it would be a major scandal, as Quartey is a senior member of the government. It would also raise questions about the level of corruption under President Akufo-Addo-led government.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Kennedy Agyapong is a refined Rawlings Team Member
Head of Research of the Kennedy Agyapong  Campaign team in the Ashanti Region, Silas Asiedu, has described the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer aspirant as a refined Jerry John Rawlings. He argues the NPP man has the right leadership attitude and skill to make Ghana work again, after the disappointment exhibited by the current crop of political leaders in the country. Mr. Asiedu was speaking on Ultimate FM’s Cup of Tea with Show host Julius Caesar Anadem while touting the leadership qualities of Kennedy Agyapong ahead of the NPP November 4th flagbearership race. “People don’t understand Ken and say all kinds of things about him. He is a firm and strategic forward leader. I dare say he is a refined JJ Rawlings, very pragmatic” “Rawlings was raw with attitude, but Ken has a proven track record with the business he has set up and continues to set up. The people love Ken for how impactful he is with his contribution to the counter, not just the NPP” he noted. “Ken is the leader we need in Ghana today after all the disappointments around, it is not about partisan politics anymore but it’s about the development of this country and the fulfilment of promises and opportunities for the youth”, he touted his political credentials. Mr. Asiedu noted that, come November 4th, Mr. Agyapong will surprise a lot of people in the upcoming elections. ”I am a researcher and from the figures we are dealing with, Ken will shock many. He will emerge as the winner of the race with some 70%. We have worked and it’s no fluke he says the Zongos are going to vote for him” “He is the man of the people and the man Ghana needs today,” he said.Mr. Agyapong took his showdown walk to the Ashanti Regional Capital Kumasi, where he raised a number of critical issues against the New Patriotic Party(NPP)Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Politics is a dirty spiritual game Renowned Spiritual and Seer
A Renowned Kumasi-based spiritualist and Great seer, Prince Mills has disclosed that politics is a dirty spiritual game and people seeking to enter into it must fortify themselves. He is therefore urging out of favour New Patriotic Party (NPP) stalwart and Founder of the Movement for Change Alan John Kyeremanten to seek stronger religious backing else her will burn out of the political scene. Sending the advice to Mr. Kyeremanten on the Ultimate Cup of tea, monitored by MyNewsGh.com Great Seer Mills noted that politics everywhere is not only a dirty game in the physical but also in the spirit world. “I like Alan, I don’t know him from anywhere but he is a good man and has Ghana at heart, his kind of politics is akin to that of ex-president Atta Mills, gentle and never provocative or insulting” “He is liked by many, that is what I see in the spirit world. I am a seer and see several things; I will urge him to seek good spiritual backing. The spirits are with him now. The politics that happens in this world is not only dirty in physical world but also a dirty spiritual game” “People fortify themselves, he must do same, nobody can ascend to the presidency without having a spiritual backing, Kwame Nkrumah had it, Alan must get it”, he revealedGreat Seer Mills noted that, even though Mr. Kyeremanten is no longer with the NPP, he will still be in their plans and he should brace himself for attacks.“The NPP will go after Alan even though he has left them. They know he knows their secrets and will go after him spiritually and physically, he must be careful. He needs to do certain things to give him a chance, the spirit world is with him”, he stressed.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Akufo-Addo cant sack Addison because hes corrupt Agalga
Member of Parliament (MP) for Bulsa North, James Agalga says the President of Ghana has no balls to sack the Governor of the Bank of Ghana (BoG), Dr. Ernest Addison and his deputies because he is part of the corruption. He indicates that only a protest can force these people to resign from office, as they are not fit for purpose. “They are square pegs in a round hole. So they are no longer fit to be in those offices, and that is why we are seeking their removal with this protest. We know Akufo-Addo hasn’t got the balls to sack them because he has participated in the corruption that has been unleashed on us by Addison and his cohorts. If they were competent, would they bring us to this point? The conduct of Addison and his cohorts smears Akufo-Addo with corruption, and anything short of their removal will spell doom and be disastrous for this country. We need to ensure that the Bank of Ghana is functioning because when it’s not functioning, our economy is going to crumble. If Addison were principled, he himself would have thrown in the towel,” he said at the ongoing Occupy BoG demonstration Source: MyNewsGh.com Thanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

BoG Governor, Deputies will be prosecuted Ablakwa
Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has assured the people of Ghana that the Governor of the Bank of Ghana and his deputies will be prosecuted. According to him, the ongoing demonstration to call for their resignation is the first step in many of the things they intend to do to the Governor of the Bank of Ghana. To him, the governor’s mismanagement of the central bank cannot be counternanced, and he will have to pay dearly what he has done to the people who entrusted him with power.“When they resign, it sends a clear message that when you’re given the opportunity to hold public office and you mismange, totally violate laws, and destroy livelihoods, you’ll pay the ultimate prize.His resignation is only the first step in our demands.

Your future is being mortgaged; rise and fight Asiedu Nketia tells Ghanaian Youth
The chairman of the largest opposition political party in Ghana, the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, has called on the youth of Ghana to rise and fight for their future. He says it’s the responsibility of the youth to call for accountability from the people they elect to lead them. Asiedu Nketia believes that if the youth do not take the mantle from the older generation, they will be left with a mess of a country. He was speaking to Accra-based Joy News when he made this known. The Chairman of the NDC said he will be present at the occupy BoG demonstration to register his displeasure at how the finances of the country are run by the people who have been entrusted with power.“This demonstration is more for the youth because it is their future that is being mortgaged. We are getting to our seventies, and very soon we will all be gone, but if you mess up, you’ll accumulate debt, you mess up the assets of the nation, and you leave, you are handing over a messed future for the youth. That is why we are calling on the youth to rise and defend their future,” he said.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Call Ken Agyapong, Wontumi to order Carlo Ahenkorah to NPP Elders
Member of Parliament for Tema West Constituency, Carlos Kingsley Ahenkorah, has called on the Elders of the New Patriotic Party to settle the unrest between Kennedy Agyapong and Bernard Antwi Boasiako. He believes that it will do the political party a lot of good if the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the party and flagbearer aspirant, Kennedy Agyapong are spoken to. Carlos Ahenkorah’s comments come on the heels of allegations against Chairman Wontumi by Kennedy Agyapong.“It will be imperative that party elders sit Kenedy Agyapong and Wontumi down and settle whatever issues they have. They can’t be seen washing their dirty linen in public. Kennedy Agyapong should understand his standing in society now and should water down some utterances.Kennedy is a man of his own because he is self-made, but no one can change him. He should understand where he is now and the kind of comments he makes. They should not sit down and bring peace. I’ve seen a publication that suggests Wontumi will hit back at Ken and that will give us out to the NDC. We should not sit and watch for this to happen.Kennedy and Wontumi are both firebrands, so if we want the party to enjoy some peace and break the eight, Ken and Wontumi must be called and spoken to,” he said on UTV.BackgroundKennedy Agyapong has accused the Ashanti Regional Chairman for the New Patriotic Party for causing the downfall of the NPP.He says Wontumi is gradually destroying the NPP with his intimidation of dissenting party executives and members.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

ECs Scrap of Guarantor System At Odds With Commonsense Edudzi Tamakloe
Legal practitioner Edudzi Tamakloe believes that it makes no sense for the Electoral Commission to do away with the guarantor system for registration. To him, over the years, the guarantor system has helped make registration of people easy, and therefore any decision to scrap it will not come from a place of commonsense. “Look at the records brought by the E during the registration period, and you’ll realize that the guarantor system helped 63% of the people register. How can something that is helping be scrapped? It doesn’t even make sense. To him, the argument that people who are Ghanaians should have a Ghana card that they can use for identification does not hold water because a number of Ghanaians do not have access to the Ghana Card even though they have registered for it. “I have my Ghana Card, but is it every Ghanaian who has access to the Ghana Card? No, so clearly the EC’s attempts to scrap the guarantor system and replace the identification process with a Ghana card does not come from a place of commonsense,” he said on Accra-based OKAY FM.

Kennedy Agyapong in credibility crises over running mate claim
The credibility of the Member of Parliament(MP) for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong has been brought to question over claims he was offered an opportunity to be running mate to Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. The New Patriotic Party(NPP) flagbearer aspirant who devoted his Kumasi Edition of Showdown Walk to attacking the personality of the Vice President and some leading members of the party, has been dared to substantiate the allegations. While addressing patrons of the walk on Saturday, September 30, 2023, the loudmouth businessman was quoted to have said “I have had offers, and among them is my stepping down to be a running mate for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, but I’ve rejected it. A number of the party elders have reached out, but my love for Ghana supersedes any offer they present to me” Bawumia’s Team ResponseIn a statement signed by Dr Gideon Boako, spokesperson for the Vice President, the Dr Bawumia Campaign team said no such advances were made at Kennedy Agyapong as he claimed.“We wish to state in unequivocal terms that the Bawumia Campaign team has not approached Kennedy Agyapong for such a running mate offer, nor have we assigned any member of the team to approach him for the same,” the statement said.The Vice President’s campaign team further stated that “It is also not true as alleged by Kennedy Agyapong that Dr. Bawumia is collapsing the party through intimidation. The unity of our party has been of great concern to candidate Dr. Bawumia. It is in light of such concern that he refrains from responding to unwarranted attacks by others in the contest and has cautioned his supporters against responding to such provocative attacks. His strategy has been to persuade delegates to support his bid. This he does, by laying his vision for the party and country”.While admonishing all stakeholders particularly presidential hopefuls to be mindful of their utterances in the interest of party unity, Veep’s campaign team maintained that the contest for flagbearer in the NPP is an internal one, and all actors, particularly the aspirants must be guided by the core values of the NPP, which include but are not limited to truth, decorum, and respect for one another.As the party gears up for its presidential primaries on November 4, 2023, stakes are high as Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is highly tipped to emerge victorious to lead the governing party in the 2024 elections.Kennedy Agyapong’s Constant OutburstIt will be recalled that Kennedy Agyapong was captured on video threatening to give Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and President Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo Addo a “showdown”.His outburst during the special delegates conference of the New Patriotic Party followed reports that his agents in the North East region were attacked.Subsequently, his campaign team explained that his ‘Showdown’ comment was misconstrued to mean the threat of a violent action.According to them, the expression ‘showdown’ was only used to indicate that Agyapong would win the November 4 polls, regardless of any alleged intimidation against him.Concerns over Mr Agyapong’s TemperamentSome election observers and political analysts have raised significant concerns over the NPP MP’s temperament and inordinate outburst which they say makes him unfit to occupy the sensitive position of president. A Senior Research Fellow at Kumasi Technical University’s Institute of Research, Innovation and Development Prof. Smart Sarpong had admonished the presidential hopeful to work on his temperament as he seeks to convince Ghanaians that he is cut out for the top position in the country.Prof Sarpong noted that the Assin Central Member of Parliament lacks diplomacy, which he said is very crucial in politics, especially at the presidential level.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Coups in in West Africa unjustified Afenyo-Markin
Leader of Ghana’s Delegation to the ECOWAS Parliament, Hon Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin has bemoaned the recurring insecurity that has rocked the sub-region through activities of terrorists and coupists indicating that they are unjustified. He notes that the activities of these groups continue to affect the peace and stability of the entire continent stating that perpetrators’ attempt to ride on activities of Jihadists and Islamists to overthrow democratic governments was not justifiable. Speaking at the Opening Ceremony of the High-Level Interactive Seminar and the Extraordinary Session of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Parliament held at the University of Education, Winneba, the Deputy Majority Leader of Ghana’s Parliament condemned what he described as the barbaric onslaught from jihadists and terrorists “It is with a heavy heart that we acknowledge another glaring crisis that tears at the fabric of our communities – the barbaric onslaught from jihadists and terrorists. With their crude weapons of horror, they continue to bring death and despair to many parts of West Africa. But we must staunchly assert that these activities should in no way provide a justification for military coups to overthrow democratically elected regimes. We must insist, fervently, that the answer to these acts of terror lies within our democratic institutions, standing as bastions of hope and fortitude amidst the turmoil”, he urged. Hon. Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin condemned recent coups in Mali, Burkina Faso, Guinea, Chad, and Gabon, along with the hostilities in SudanWhile describing these military takeovers as a betrayal of democratic principles, he demands a swift return to constitutional rule.“We must affirm, unequivocally, that regression is not the solution. Our golden age lies ahead of us, not in the shadows of the 1960s to 1980s. It is under the shade of democracy that we can cultivate the progress we aspire to. It is here that we can construct the schools that will nurture the minds of our future leaders. It is here that we can build modern hospitals to heal our people and foster technology to propel Africa into an era of supreme industrialization in the wake of the AfCFTA. Together, we can construct robust and resilient economies that will position Africa as a formidable competitor on the global stage”, he advisedHe also admitted that there is imperfection in every governance but was quick to add that relegating democracy to the background was not the alternative.“Indeed, no form of governance has ever been perfect, yet history has proven time and again that democracy stands as the best option for nations seeking development in peace and harmony. Even in its imperfections, it carries within its structures the capacity to rise above the ills that afflict it, fostering environments where innovation, justice, and freedom thrive. It is incumbent upon us, the custodians of this sacred trust, to continually refine and enhance these structures, ensuring that they remain resilient in the face of the ever-changing challenges that our societies encounter”, he stressedThe outspoken leader of the delegation did not also mince words to take on African leaders who have resorted to attempts to modify the constitution for their long stay in power.This in his view, is a complete affront to the principles of democracy, which enshrine the fundamental rights of citizens“Admittedly, our current global landscape showcases a bevy of leaders who have sought to unlawfully modify their constitutions to perpetuate their hold on power. This is a grave affront to the principles of democracy, which enshrine the fundamental rights of citizens to choose their leaders and to live under a government that is held accountable for its actions. As we traverse this difficult period, we must remain vigilant, standing firm against the erosion of these principles and fighting to protect the sanctity of our democratic processes. Now, more than ever, we are called upon to be stalwarts of justice, champions of the values that define democratic governance. Our unity must be our shield, protecting the flames of democracy and freedom from being extinguished by the icy winds of despotism and tyranny”, he pointed out.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Photos of Bawumias encounter with Kwabena Agyepong melts hearts
Images of Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and former General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwabena Agyei Agyepong has left many hearts melting. Both gentlemen met at the private residence of Kwabena Agyepong in Kumasi while celebrating a decade of the passing of his mother, Mrs Margaret Agyepong who died on August 27, 2013. Many political pundits who could not help but admire the pose of the Vice President and his host, have already started giving various interpretations to the photos, especially at a time one of the flagbearer aspirants of the NPP, John Alan Kwadwo Kyeremanten resigned from the party. Kwabena Agyei Agyepong who was also a flagbearer aspirant but lost out at the Super Delegates Conference after failing to make it among the top 5, it is gathered has reaffirmed his commitment to the party. Though he said he was disappointed in the outcome, he indicated the pattern of the votes was the choice of delegates.According to the one-time NPP General Secretary, those who participated in the exercise are of significant importance to the party.In an interview with JoyNews, Mr Agyepong said the projections made before the elections had reasonable backings, hence his acceptance of the verdict.“As a political party, I am proud of my party that we were able to host such a thing and send a strong signal to the rest of the country.“Once people have expressed their choice, and have been able to cast their vote on their own and enjoyed the free will to choose, I always respect the verdict of our party.“So, the special delegates have spoken, of course, the special delegates are not very much but it is a significant body; let’s be honest with ourselves.“(It is made up of) the 275 chairmen who are the executive heads of the 275 constituencies, the regional executives who lead the party in the regions and we have our 136 MPs. So this is an important body,” he stressed.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Snoring Alan failed to build relationships with party members NPP Communicator
One of the cardinal sins attributed to the founder of Movement for Change, John Kwadwo Alan Kyeremanten is that he failed to build a relationship with the party’s base. This is the argument by Ashanti Regional Communications member of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP)  Felix Donkor, suggesting that while others were networking and building relationships within the party Alan was sleeping yet wanted to be the party’s flagbearer. He believes Mr Kyeremanten has no constituency in the NPP and was just playing diplomacy within the party while others were toiling for the development and growth of the party. He was speaking on Kumasi-based Ultimate FM monitored by MyNewsGh.com “It is sad Alan has left the party. Politics is about numbers but he has not acted as a true patriot and an experienced politician. Let’s be frank with the issues, over the years he failed to build relationships in the party” “While others were toiling and working hard and connecting with the grassroots Alan was asleep in the party.  He should not blame his woes on anybody. He is the cause of his own problem” he said   Mr. Donkor noted that Mr. Kyeremanten’s new venture will not impact the NPP. “Alan’s break away won’t impact the NPP. No true and true NPP member will follow him. He is not a politician you can trust. He is just a political person who just has his own interest not that of the NPP”, he stressed.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

NPP is now being run by rascals Dr Richard Amoah Baah
Political Scientist and sympathizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Richard Amoako Baah is claiming the current party is being run by rascals who are pursuing a clandestine agenda devoid of the general interest of the larger party. Speaking on Joy News monitored by MyNewsGh.com, Dr. Baah noted that Alan Kyeremanten resigned from the NPP which culminated in him launching a Movement for Change to contest the 2024 general election as an independent Presidential Candidate. “The current executives are colluding, using shenanigans, lies, bribery to intimidate people. The party is not the party I joined; this is a party that has been corrupted to the core. The leaders including the president himself are behind it, vote buying and all the shenanigans, he is it, we know what is going on. I am one of those who campaigned hard for the president, but I saw earlier more than two years ago that this was not what I bargained for so I started speaking against the party, at least trying to get them to correct some things, they won’t do it they do what they want. They steal all the money, thievery, that’s what’s going on” he alleged. Dr. Richard Amoako Baah notes that rascals are now running the NPP. “The party is in the wrong hands and you cannot correct it from within, the party must die and it’s going to die. You watch it and see. It will be divided into two the Kumasi people will have the bigger power, and the other one will die”“Then we will get rid of all the rascals running the party now. They are rascals, they all want money, MPs taking money, the president paying money to the MPs” he added.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Alan Kyeremanten has been ungrateful to the NPP Felix Donkor
A former  Student Leader and a leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Communications team in the Ashanti Region, Felix Donkor has described Alan Kyeremanten’s recent resignation from the party as an action of ungratefulness. He notes Alan has benefited from the party more than any member of the party, serving as the longest Trades Minister under the Fourth Republic and even during the Gold Coast era. Speaking on Ultimate FM’s Cup of Tea Show with Julius Caesar Anadem, Mr. Donkor lashed out as not being fair to the NPP with his recent actions. “Let’s tell Alan the truth, he has benefited from the NPP party more than any other person in the party and even in Ghana. He is the longest-serving Trades Minister under the Fourth Republic and the Gold Coast. I don’t recollect anybody serving in one position long like that” “He was also the Ambassador to the USA or so, serving for the country under an NPP government. You can just wake up and just some misunderstanding in one centre during a Super Delegates Conference to tell us you are being intimidated. How? “Mr. Kyeremanten has been ungrateful to the NPP,  the party that made him who is. Tell me if not for the party who would have known Alan” he questioned Mr. Alan Kyeremanten resigned from the party last with a big announcement to Ghanaians and also announcing his desire to contest in the 2024 general elections as an independent presidential candidate with his Movement For Change group.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Nobody assumes the Presidency without spiritual fortification Great Seer
A spiritual Seer of the spirit and underworld, Great Seer Prince Mills is claiming without spiritual fortification nobody can ascend the high office of presidency. Citing situations in Ghana, the spiritualist noted that all presidents who have had the opportunity to lead the country did not do so with their ordinary backing, from Kwame Nkrumah to the current president. He was speaking on a local radio station in Kumasi. “Nobody and I repeat nobody can become president in Ghana with the naked eye. The politicians consult all kinds of spirits and do all kinds of things. We see them and we know their level of spiritual strength” “Is Kufuor just a Catholic, he belongs to other groups and does things. Do you think it’s all about the Catholic Church? Kwame Nkrumah had his, Mahama will have his and I know the current president will also have the same” “When the NPP and Akufo-Addo say the battle is the lords, which lord are they talking about?  Do you know that judges are referred to as Lords?  Do you know I am a Lord to some people?  They won’t explain the battle is lords to you”“When you push them, they will choose the easy route of Christianity because that is what has been talked about loudly in the country and it looks safe for them. Behind their churches they seek other spiritual powers to help them rule people”, he explainedSource: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Minister blacklists Kumasi radio stations, vows never to speak
The Ashanti Regional Minister, Hon Simon Osei-Mensah has vowed never to grant interviews to a number of radio stations within the Kumasi Metropolis over unfair reportage. He mentions Kumasi-based Angel FM and Multimedia’s Nhyira FM as two of the outlets that he will never grant interviews either in person or on the telephone. The Minister believes the Multimedia outlet in the Ashanti Regional capital has not been fair in their reportage, especially in relation to issues of the fight against illegal mining popularly known as ‘galamsey’. “All institutions are politicized including the media, at the moment a presenter can talk and I know how I will take it because of my perception of that media station. I will give you an example, no matter what you do to me I will never go to Nhyira FM, they can say whatever they want to say. So the day they will even say the truth I will take it as lies”. Hon Simon Osei Mensah told the media. Mr. Simon Osei Mensah made his stance known during a conference organized by the Ghana Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (GHEITI) held at the Golden Bean Hotel on September 28, 2023.Speaking on the need for every Ghanaian to join the fight against illegal mining, Hon Simon Osei Mensah acknowledged the fact that, the country has not been able to deal with the menace because almost every institution has been politicized including the media.He revealed that, he has been able to create the perception on every media station hence Nhyira FM can make any presentation on radio and he would not be bothered about it.According to him, even if the station says positive things about him, he will consider it as something negative.“Even on the day they will say good things about me I will take it as bad”, Hon Simon Osei Mensah stressed.The Minister further urged Ghanaians to be circumspect about the argument on illegal mining.“All of us in the country should agree that we want to fight illegal mining. He stressed that Ghanaians themselves leak information about the movement security in areas where the galamsey activities are going on”, he said.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Bawumia not collapsing NPP through intimidation, threats Campaign Team
The campaign team for the Vice President of Ghana, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has described claims by Kennedy Agyapong that he has resorted to intimidation as lies. A statement issued from the campaign office of the Vice President indicated that the Vice President has always been peaceful and has drummed home the need to ensure the party is united regardless of the internal contest. “It is also not true as alleged by Kennedy Agyapong that Dr. Bawumia is collapsing the party through intimidation. The unity of our party has been of great concern to candidate Dr. Bawumia.It is in light of such concern that he refrains from responding to unwarranted attacks by others in the contest and has cautioned his supporters against responding to such provocative attacks. His strategy has been to persuade delegates to support his bid. This he does, by laying his vision for the party and country,” the statement said.BackgroundFlagbearer aspirant and Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong, has told his followers and members of the NPP that the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, and Bernard Antwi Boasiako are destroying the New Patriotic Party (NPP).He says their threats to people who do not support them are what is currently destroying the once admirable political brand of the NPP.Kennedy Agyapong was speaking at a health walk organized by his supporters in the Ashanti Regional capital, Kumasi.“Wontumi and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia are the ones destroying this political party, but we will not allow that. They are threatening everyone who is not in their camp, and that is worrying. I am not the one destroying the NPP. For me, what I see is what I say, and that ends it,” he said.“I have all the meetings they have attended, and when they try anything, there will be an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth,” Kennedy Agyapong said at the rally.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Ive rejected the running mate offer to step down Ken Agyapong
Flagbearer aspirant Kennedy Agyapong has disclosed that he has been offered the Running Mate slot should he step down from the flagbearership race. He says several elders of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) have reached out to him to consider the offer, but he insists he joined the race to rescue Ghaan and therefore will not take any offer. “I have had offers, and among them is my stepping down to be a running mate for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, but I’ve rejected it. A number of the party elders have reached out, but my love for Ghana supersedes any offer they present to me.To him, the NPP is now forcing someone on delegates, but he is sure that the people will reject the establishment candidate.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Akufo-Addo led economy was sinking Alan on why govt resorted to IMF
Former Trade and Industry Minister Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen has indicated that Ghana had no choice but to resort to the International Monetary Fund for support. He says that where Ghana’s debt levels had skyrocketed and the state’s international reserves at the Central Bank were low, it was imperative that Ghana needed some cushion. “We went to the IMF, and they agreed to have a package of support for us. Part of the condition was for us to reduce our debt-to-GDP ratio from 105% to 55%. The condition to expect from you to be able to enjoy a bailout is for you to bring your debt to sustainable levels. It was very obvious that we had overextended ourselves as a country. However, If we had prioritized my calls for Industrialization and the kind of things that I’m talking about now in my GTP, it would have provided a basis for a resilient economy,” he said. Alan Kyerematen acknowledged that the Russian-Ukraine war and COVID-19 had lasting effects on the economy of Ghana.“These two external factors exposed the structural vulnerabilities in our economy. There are matured economies that suffered the impact of the same external shocks but were able to deal with the shock much better because they have resilient economies. In our case the fact that we are not exporting enough and producing enough, the fact that we end up importing all the things we can produce in this country creates a certain challenge for our economy to withstand external shocks.”Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Speak Against Extension of Term Limits by Some African Leaders Akufo-Addo urges ECOWAS Parliament
The President of the Republic, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has called on the membership of the ECOWAS Parliament to speak against the extension of presidential term limits by some leaders to strengthen their grip on power. According to President Akufo-Addo, “these actions tend to result in discontent amongst the populace, which create fertile grounds on which military interventions disingenuously feed.” Adherence to this, he said, will ensure that we don’t “give up when it comes to guaranteeing the democratic integrity of our respective countries, where we should have governance systems based on the separation of powers, which are free from corruption, and are respectful of the rule of law, individual liberties, human rights, the principles of democratic accountability and social justice.” President Akufo-Addo was addressing the 2nd Ecowas Parliamentary Seminar, in Winneba, on Friday, 29th September, 2023, under the theme, “Challenges Relating to Unconstitutional Changes of Government and Presidential Term Limits in West Africa – Role of the ECOWAS Parliament.”Based on the theme, the President charged them to “propose measures to ensure the anchoring of democratic and republican values, both at the level of political elites and citizens of the Community. This would help towards preserving the peace and stability of the region.”He suggested that “any attempt at the manipulation of opinion and of the rules of the democratic game for partisan political ends always leads to a loss of legitimacy, which is reflected in the social tensions it creates.”Continuing, he stated that, “the attempted confiscation of democracy by elites, who engage, through legal antics, in the manipulation of constitutional rules and the subjugation of the institutions of the Republic with the sole aim of remaining in power.”He opined further that, “it is also important to remind us that democracy is not, as some would have us believe, a western concept, but, rather, a universal concept of general application,” and asked the August house to ensure there is “no backsliding in support for democratic values anchored on the promotion of the rule of law and respect for human rights. And when the coups do happen, we must insist on the shortest period of the transition process, especially in the Sahel, where the military, having tasted power, appear reluctant to restore democratic rule.”“The history of the world, including that of Africa, testifies that the process of electing and installing leaders in democratic circumstances provides the best form of governance. The great British wartime leader, Winston Spencer Churchill, it was who said “democracy is the worst form of governance, except for all the others”. Modern history has taught us that tyranny, oppression, and totalitarian government do not last long. No matter how a people apparently reject democracy and civil liberty, circumstances would always force them back to embrace them,” he added.Concluding, he said, “out of duty towards our children and grandchildren, we must not give up when it comes to guaranteeing the democratic integrity of our respective countries, where we should have governance systems based on the separation of powers, which are free from corruption, and are respectful of the rule of law, individual liberties, human rights, the principles of democratic accountability and social justice.”Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.

Relying on NPPs Internal problems wont win NDC 2024 Solomon Nkansah
Former National Communication Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Solomon Nkansah has warned the NDC not to be jubilant about the cracks in the New Patriotic Party (NPP). He says over the years, the NPP has created a facade of disunity just to sway the focus of the NDC and the same seems to be happening in the current dispensation. “In 1998 when Akufo-Addo lost to J. A Kufour, he threatened to leave the party. The NDC drummed home the disunity in the NPP and we sat there for John Agyekum Kufour to win the General Election. In 2016, a similar thing happened. NPP said they had suspended Afoko and some other people. We went to the election and the NPP won once again. This is a political party that has come of age and they are able to manage their internal dissent beyond imagination. Look at how Kennedy Agyapong can insult his own party and still maintain his membership. That cannot be done in the NDC,” he said. Solomon Nkansah indicated that at this moment, “the NPP is faced with two challenges. Managing the Economy and the challenge of Managing the Internal affairs. If the NPP is able to manage these two it will be a plus for them”.He further indicated that the NDC has not provided a roadmap as to how they intend to win the General Election in 2024 warning that they should not rely so much on the internal problems of the NPP.“It’s not easy to rely so much on the Internal happenings of NPP. But rather, we should use it for our internal search and patch up, mend broken fences and forge a united front and make sure that how many elephants stand in our way, we shall be able to push them aside,” he said.Source: MyNewsGh.comThanks for reading from MyNewsGH as a news publishing website from Ghana.
