Ghana Government Needs GH¢500 Million to Tackle Food Glut, Says Agriculture Minister

Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, has revealed that the government will require approximately GH¢500 million to address the current oversupply of farm produce, commonly referred to as a food glut. Speaking on the Citi Breakfast Show, Mr. Opoku emphasized the need for a coordinated, data-driven approach to tackle the challenge, warning that inaction could discourage farmers from reinvesting in agriculture. “You do not just get up and move into a farm because there is a glut. You need to move there with your technical team to ascertain the amount of farm produce to be procured. From the figures we are receiving, we will need about GH¢500 million to be able to clear it,” he said. The Minister noted that the Ministry is engaging the World Food Programme and other development partners to explore strategies for managing the glut […]

Ghana’s healthcare faces chaos after the Lightwave Health Information Management System (LHIMS) shutdown. Doctors lose access to patient data dating back to 2020, crippling hospitals nationwide.

Expectant Mothers Forced to Deliver on Floor at Yeji Matthias Hospital Amid Overcrowding

Expectant mothers at Yeji Matthias Hospital in the Pru East District are reportedly being forced to deliver their babies on the bare floor, due to severe overcrowding and a lack of space in the hospital’s labour ward. The disturbing situation has sparked public outrage and urgent appeals from healthcare workers, residents, and local authorities for immediate government intervention. According to Adom News reporter Daniel Tachie, the hospital’s medical team says the current labour ward is too small to accommodate the growing number of deliveries. This leaves midwives and doctors overwhelmed, compromising both maternal and neonatal safety. “We are doing our best to save lives, but the environment is not conducive. Sometimes women in labour have to lie on the floor because all beds are occupied. It breaks our hearts as health workers,” said Dr. Evans Narh Dotcher, Acting Medical Director […]

George Sarpong Warns Against Rising Hate Speech and Misinformation in Ghana

George Sarpong, Executive Director of the Media Foundation, has warned that the spread of hate speech and misinformation is fast becoming a grave threat to democratic stability and national cohesion. Speaking at a three-day journalist training workshop in Tamale themed “Hate Speech, Misinformation, and Disinformation,” Sarpong said unchecked false narratives and divisive rhetoric are eroding public trust and undermining the foundations of democracy. The workshop was organized by the ECOWAS Peace and Security Group (EPSG) in partnership with the Ghana National Peace Council (NPC).

UN Warns Over 7.5 Million South Sudanese Face Severe Hunger as Conflict Escalates

More than 7.55 million people in South Sudan are projected to suffer from severe malnutrition during the April-to-July 2026 lean season, when food reserves typically run low, according to the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) — a global hunger monitoring system supported by the United Nations. The IPC’s latest report, released on Tuesday, paints a grim picture of worsening hunger driven by escalating conflict, mass displacement, and shrinking international aid. “The high severity of acute food insecurity in South Sudan is of great concern, requiring an immediate and large-scale response to save lives,” the IPC report said. South Sudan is once again on the brink of civil war, following President Salva Kiir’s suspension of First Vice President Riek Machar, who now faces treason charges. The move has reignited long-standing political rivalries that have previously plunged the country into brutal […]
