Two Arrested in Tema-Afienya Train Sabotage Plot, Says Ghana Railway Authority

An ongoing investigation by the Ghana Railway Development Authority (GRDA) and the Ghana Police Service has revealed an alleged plot by suspected saboteurs to disrupt the newly launched Tema–Afienya train service, according to a report by Graphic Online. Authorities confirmed two separate sabotage attempts this week against the Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) train — a new passenger service introduced as part of Ghana’s efforts to modernize its rail transport system. In the first incident on Monday, October 20, 2025, a 10-year-old boy was reportedly coerced into throwing stones at the moving train, shattering the front windshield. The following day, another attempt was made to derail the train by placing a large stone on the tracks. Police have since arrested two suspects — the 10-year-old and another individual believed to be his father — both allegedly paid GH¢20 each by unidentified […]

NAIMOS Arrests Three Chinese Nationals in Hiawa Koofrom Illegal Mining Operation

The National Anti-Illegal Mining Operations Secretariat (NAIMOS) has intensified its nationwide crackdown on illegal mining, achieving another major success during an intelligence-led operation at Hiawa Koofrom in the Amenfi Central District of Ghana’s Western Region. The operation, conducted after credible intelligence was received from an informant, led to the arrest of three Chinese galamsey operators, the seizure of a pump action shotgun with four cartridges, and the impounding of two excavators used in destructive mining along the Ankobrah River. According to NAIMOS, the taskforce departed for the site around 0910 hours after receiving GPS coordinates pinpointing the illegal mining activity.

Kenya’s Marathon Star Ruth Chepngetich Banned 3 Years for Doping Violation

Nairobi, Kenya — Kenya’s women’s marathon world record holder Ruth Chepngetich has been banned for three years after admitting to anti-doping rule violations, the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) announced on Thursday. However, her record-breaking 2:09:56 marathon time, set in Chicago last October, will remain valid as it was achieved before her positive drug test. Chepngetich, 31, was provisionally suspended in July after the banned diuretic hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) was found in her urine sample collected on March 14. Laboratory results revealed an HCTZ concentration of 3,800ng/mL, far exceeding the World Anti-Doping Agency’s minimum threshold of 20ng/mL. Initially, Chepngetich denied any wrongdoing, claiming no knowledge of how the substance entered her system. An AIU investigation analyzed her medications, supplements, and phone data but found no evidence to support her defense. Two weeks after her suspension, on July 31, Chepngetich changed her explanation, […]

Ivory Coast Election Tension: Security Forces Flood Abidjan Ahead of Presidential Vote

Abidjan, Ivory Coast In the working-class neighborhood of Yopougon, the familiar aroma of grilled chicken and fish still fills the air at the busy Sapeurs-Pompiers crossroad. Food vendors shout over each other to attract customers, and the smoky scent of street grills drifts through the humid evening. But the usual crowds that stay out late are thinning earlier than usual. As night falls, residents hurry home, uneasy about potential election-related violence. Two police trucks remain stationed at the intersection, part of the heavy security presence that now defines daily life in the city. Since October 10, when campaigning began for this weekend’s presidential polls, these vehicles have become a permanent fixture in the area. The Ivorian government has deployed about 44,000 police and soldiers across the country, saying the measure is meant to guarantee a safe and peaceful election. Yet […]

Israeli Parliament Moves to Annex Occupied West Bank Despite US Warning

Two controversial bills pushing for the annexation of the occupied West Bank narrowly advanced through Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, late Tuesday night, drawing sharp criticism from both the United States and Israel’s own leadership. The move has once again intensified debate over Israel’s long-standing occupation of Palestinian territories and its implications for regional stability. US President Donald Trump responded tersely to the development, saying, “Israel is not going to do anything with the West Bank.” His vice president, JD Vance, who is currently in Israel to reinforce the US-brokered Gaza ceasefire, went further, calling the vote “weird” and admitting that he found it “personally insulting.” The occupied West Bank, along with East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip, has been under Israeli military control since 1967. Over the decades, Israel has established hundreds of settlements in the area—illegal under international law […]

Canadian Ad Featuring Reagan on Tariffs Sparks US–Canada Trade Fallout

A newly released advertisement in the United States by Ontario, Canada’s largest province, has triggered fresh diplomatic friction between Washington and Ottawa. The ad features former US President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs as an ineffective economic policy, sparking outrage from former President Donald Trump and deepening an already strained relationship between both nations. In a Truth Social post on Thursday night, Trump denounced the commercial as “fake,” citing statements from the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation that described the footage as doctored. The former president accused the Canadian government of attempting to influence US courts through the ad’s release and announced an abrupt halt to trade discussions with Canada. “Based on their egregious behavior, all trade negotiations with Canada are hereby terminated,” Trump wrote. The controversy adds to the growing tension between Washington and Ottawa following Trump’s tariff policies that had […]

Afaglo Urges Mahama to Extend ORAL Mandate to Probe NPP Corruption Cases

A senior member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Novihoho Afaglo, has called on President John Dramani Mahama to extend the mandate of the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) task force to further investigate corruption cases linked to former officials of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration. Afaglo praised the joint work of ORAL and the Attorney-General’s Department, calling their partnership vital in exposing alleged financial irregularities and misuse of state resources meant for national development. He stated that without ORAL’s vigilance, “Nana Akufo-Addo’s appointees could have stolen millions from the state unnoticed.” According to him, ongoing investigations initiated under Mahama’s administration have already revealed “significant wrongdoing that cannot be ignored.” Afaglo stressed that the current wave of revelations should serve as a warning to all serving public officials, urging them to remember that their roles are meant to uplift […]
