Dr Apea Defends Ato Essien Over GH¢90 M Capital Bank Loan

Dr John Apea, a respected figure at the Commonwealth’s human rights office, recently made waves by questioning the narrative around William Ato Essien—the founder of the now-defunct Capital Bank. According to Dr Apea, the controversial GH¢90 million wasn't stolen—it was a loan, and Essien was wrongly painted as a thief. What Dr Apea Is Saying He challenged the story that Essien misappropriated GH¢90 million. Instead, he says that figure refers to liquidity support disbursed by the Bank of Ghana—a loan the bank repaid diligently. Essien earned a finder’s fee of GH¢27.5 million, a standard arrangement for facilitating such loans—not illicit income. The bank continued paying monthly dues of GH¢14.4 million without default, even repaying over GH¢308 million before being closed. Dr Apea also points to a strange irony: the Managing Director of Capital Bank, who approved the fee payment, was acquitted, yet Essien was convicted for simply receiving it. How […]

Abokyikrom Residents Protest Illegal Sand Winning

In Abokyikrom, a peaceful farming community in Western North’s Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai Municipality, the calm has been shattered. On July 17, 2025, residents voiced rising alarm as illegal sand winning crews dug through farmlands without permission—turning cassava, maize, cocoa, and palm groves into dusty pits. Their plea: “Stop before hunger comes.” What’s Going On? Sand miners have burst onto private farms, destroying crops that families rely on for food and income. The crop damage has slashed yields, causing worry about food shortages and livelihood losses. Tensions have escalated—some farmers warn they may resort to drastic measures to defend their fields if authorities don’t step in. Local Voices Assembly Member Solomon Nkansah is sounding the alarm: he’s called on the Municipal Assembly and EPA to act immediately. Angry farmers speak openly about protecting their land with “any means necessary,” fearing this could spiral […]

NSMQ 2025: Ghana SHS Returns in Northern Zone

Ghana Senior High School (Ghana SHS) stumbled early at the Northern Regional qualifiers, losing narrowly to Kalpohin SHS (37–35) and seemed out of the national NSMQ race—until drama struck. When Sakogu SHTS withdrew from the North-East contest, Ghana SHS got a lifeline—one they eagerly accepted. That twist meant 19 regional champions plus Regentropfen SHS joined five zonal contests in Tamale. Ghana SHS now has a shot at defending their Northern Zonal crown. Groups and Highlights Here’s who’s competing in each of the five zonal groups: Group 1: Tamale Islamic Science SHS, Awe SHTS, Lawra SHS, Regentropfen SHS Group 2: NOBISCO, Business SHS, Bunkpurugu SHTS, Kalpohin SHS Group 3: Ghana SHS, Kanton SHS, Navrongo SHS, Yendi SHS Group 4: St. Francis Xavier JS, Nandom SHS, Wa SHS, Our Lady of Lourdes SHS Group 5: Tamale SHS, Bolgatanga SHS, St. Charles Minor Seminary, T.I. AMASS Salaga Notable entries: NOBISCO dazzled […]

ECG Sees Significant Revenue Growth

On July 16, 2025, Energy Minister John Jinapor brought encouraging news: ECG’s monthly revenue is up about 47.3% compared to the previous year. That’s a big lift—driven by billing reforms and stronger financial discipline. But Jinapor also reminded Ghanaians that while things are looking better, there’s still a long road ahead. Why It Matters Fair billing: ECG recently introduced the “Zeos” billing system, replacing a flawed one. This has helped them collect what’s truly owed. Trust in payments: A single Treasury account and a clean, predictable payments flow—called the cash-waterfall mechanism—means money finally goes where it should. Bright Numbers That 47.3% growth isn’t just hype—it shows concrete progress. In June alone, ECG pulled in GHS 1.6 billion—a solid year-on-year gain. A Cautious Tone Despite the good news, the Minister stressed that ECG still faces big debts and structural challenges. He urged innovation—like […]

Energy Sector Showing Signs of Stability

During a July 16, 2025 event at Jubilee House, Energy Minister John Jinapor shared good news: Ghana’s energy situation is finally calming down. He said the sector is showing real signs of stability and recovery—the headaches of power outages seem to be fading. What’s Changed Gone are the persistent blackouts that once plagued homes and businesses. Now, power comes through more reliably and consistently, and people are noticing. Thanks to reforms and better infrastructure, the system is now more dependable—even during big maintenance jobs like upgrades at the ENI gas facility, which went smoothly without sparking the feared “National Dumsor Day.” Numbers That Matter Revenue at the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has shot up 47.3% year-on-year—evidence that bills are being paid, and money is flowing back into the system. This increase comes from cleaner billing, stronger financial discipline, and […]

Farmers to Be Compensated for Asutsuare‑Aveyime Road

On July 16, 2025, Roads Minister Kwame Agbodza visited the Asutsuare–Aveyime stretch of the Eastern Corridor programme and announced that farmers impacted by the roadwork will be compensated for lost crops. He emphasized, however, that only pre-approved structures qualify for payout. Project Overview The 63.1 km road includes a 39 km single carriage from Dufor–Adidome to Asikuma, and a 23.9 km two-lane segment from Asutsuare to Aveyime, with a major interchange at Asikuma Junction. Construction is expected to wrap up within two years. Farmer Compensation Details Affected crop owners will receive financial redress for losses. However, buildings erected after project approval—particularly those deliberately built within the right-of-way—will not be compensated. Agbodza cautioned that opportunistic construction in road paths is unacceptable and cannot be rewarded. Why This Is Important Protects livelihoods: Farming families won’t bear the financial burden of public works. Prevents abuse: Clear rules […]

He officially entered the 2026 NPP flagbearer race with what the media is calling a “big bang” announcement.

Afenyo‑Markin Alleges DRIP Machinery Used for Galamsey

On July 14, 2025, Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo‑Markin told Parliament that machines meant for the District Road Improvement Project (DRIP) are being hijacked for galamsey, with the government turning a blind eye to the misuse. What He Said The DRIP machinery, intended to build and repair roads, is being used illegally in mining pits. He accused authorities of doing nothing to stop this, describing it as blatant impunity. He warned that this theft of state property worsens environmental destruction and threatens Ghana’s economic recovery through agriculture. Why This Matters Public property theft: DRIP is funded by taxpayers and donors. Misusing the equipment undermines public trust. Environmental harm: Galamsey brings water pollution and deforestation—damaging land meant for farming. Economic fallout: Ghana aims to grow its economy through agriculture. Environmental damage works directly against that goal. MP’s Call to Action Afenyo‑Markin urged […]
