Asanteman Council Holds Rare Emergency Meeting

Scores of paramount, divisional, and sub-chiefs from across the Ashanti Kingdom convened at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi for an emergency sitting of the Asanteman Traditional Council, presided over by the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II. Although the agenda for the meeting remains undisclosed, palace officials described it as “urgent and of high importance” to the governance of the Ashanti Kingdom. Security presence around the palace was notably heightened, with traditional protocol officers working alongside police personnel to maintain order and decorum. As the highest decision-making body of the Ashanti Kingdom, the Asanteman Traditional Council rarely calls emergency sittings — a move that often signals significant developments within the traditional administration.

INCEDI 2025 urges localised education reforms

The 2025 International Conference on Education and Development Initiatives (INCEDI) began with a strong appeal to shape education reforms in the Global South according to each nation’s historical, cultural, and social realities. Conference Director Professor Ato Essuman, in his welcome address, stressed that reforms should prioritise equity, inclusivity, and responsiveness.“Effective education reforms are about creating systems that are equitable, inclusive, and responsive to the needs of particular countries,” he said. While acknowledging the value of global frameworks like Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4), Professor Essuman argued they must be adapted to local contexts rather than applied wholesale. The conference theme — Education Reforms in the Global South: Lessons from the Past, Insights for the Present — reflects growing academic consensus that one-size-fits-all approaches are ineffective. “Data should inform, rather than dictate policy,” he noted, cautioning against allowing statistics to […]

Helicopter Makes Emergency Landing Near Obuasi

Another helicopter has been forced to make an emergency landing at Mensonso, near Obuasi in the Adansi District of the Ashanti Region. The Member of Parliament for Adansi Akrofuom, Joseph Azumah, confirmed the incident, which he believes occurred around 11 a.m. Mr. Azumah explained that the aircraft was travelling from Accra to Chiraa in the Sunyani West District of the Bono Region when the pilot diverted due to poor weather conditions, which made it unsafe to continue the journey. “Continuing the trip would have posed serious risks,” the MP noted. Landing Near Recent Crash Site The emergency landing took place close to Adansi Brofoyedur — the same area where eight people recently died in a helicopter crash. With soldiers still stationed at the earlier crash site, they quickly moved to Mensonso to assess the situation. Although the exact number of […]
