Goaso Queen Mother Calls Assembly to Provide Bins

The Paramount Queen Mother of Goaso, Nana Afia Serwaa, has publicly appealed to the Asunafo North Municipal Assembly to urgently install refuse bins at strategic locations across the town, warning that Goaso’s lack of public waste containers is heightening unsanitary conditions in the Ahafo regional capital. During a community clean‑up initiative held by the Goaso Traditional Council and the Assembly—organized ahead of the funeral of Paramount Chief Nana Kwasi Bosomprah—Nana Serwaa expressed deep concern over the rising trend of indiscriminate littering. She described the situation as a public health hazard directly linked to the absence of rubbish receptacles at “vantage points” throughout the town In response, the Asunafo North Municipal Chief Executive (MCE), Joseph Akparibo, pledged that the Assembly would swiftly address the sanitation challenge.

Blood test triggers murder charge in immigration officer’s death

The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service, led by Director-General COP Lydia Yaako Donkor, has confirmed that Bright Aweh—also known as Robert or Highest Bright—is now facing a formal murder charge in the death of Immigration Officer Stephen King Amoah, following the results of a blood test on items recovered from his residence. The case against Aweh hinges on forensic evidence uncovered during police operations on July 24. Investigators found bloodstains in a living room, newly painted walls, and an empty spray-paint can, all suggesting an attempted cleanup; alongside that, a blood-soaked fufu pestle wrapped in polythene and bloodied camouflage fabric were recovered near Aweh’s home. Aweh’s vehicle was also impounded after officers detected traces of blood, which sent investigative teams for DNA matching. Amoah, aged 38, disappeared on the evening of July 3, 2025, after leaving […]

Ghana raises cocoa farmgate price to GH¢3,228.75/bag (~US$5,040/t)

The Government of Ghana has unveiled a major revision to the cocoa producer price for the 2025/2026 season, announcing a jump from US $3,100 to US $5,040 per tonne—a 62.58% increase—in dollar terms, effective August 7, 2025, ahead of the new crop season’s opening. At an exchange rate of approximately GH¢10.25 = US $1, the new rate translates to GH¢51,660 per tonne, or GH¢3,228.75 per 64 kg bag—up from GH¢3,100 using the previous peg of GH¢16/US $1—marking a 4% local-currency rise but a dramatic increase when measured in foreign earnings.

Ghana Approves rCOMSDEP to Reform Mining, Create Jobs

The Government of Ghana, under the leadership of President John Dramani Mahama, has launched a sweeping new initiative—the Responsible Cooperative Mining and Skills Development Programme (rCOMSDEP)—intended to reshape the artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) sector while creating sustainable employment opportunities.

These cooperatives will receive legal concessions, professional training in geological surveying and mine safety, as well as access to shared processing centres compliant with international standards—including mercury-free gold recovery technologies and water treatment systems. Health and environmental risk mitigation is a central emphasis of the programme. A major push area is […]

L’opposition en boucle sans fin

L’opposition togolaise semble prisonnière d’un éternel retour : une marche, encore une marche, toujours la même marche ! Dimanche, la coalition d’organisations de la société civile, pilotée par l’ONG Novation Internationale, a annoncé une nouvelle « marche citoyenne », prévue pour le 9 août à Lomé. Le parcours ? Rien de nouveau : départ de Bè Gakpoto Yéssouvito, arrivée — sans surprise — au lac de Bè. On dirait presque une promenade touristique, si l’air n’était pas saturé d’odeurs de slogans recyclés. La raison de ce nouveau défilé ? Rien de réellement nouveau sous le soleil togolais. Les opposants, prompts comme toujours à dénoncer l’oppression, réclament — roulements de tambour — la « liberté de manifester » et le respect des droits humains. Comme si les autorités n’avaient jamais entendu ce disque rayé des centaines de fois ! Et pire […]

Plaidoyer pour des soins accessibles à tous

La Ligue togolaise contre le cancer (LTC) lance un appel pressant : l’accès aux soins contre le cancer au Togo reste inégal, particulièrement pour les populations des zones rurales et du nord du pays. Dimanche, son président, Stéphane Doméfa Awuity, a lancé un appel urgent aux autorités pour renforcer les infrastructures sanitaires et élargir l’offre de soins, notamment dans les régions éloignées. « Il est urgent de sortir de la négation et de répondre à cette crise silencieuse par des actions concrètes », a déclaré M. Awuity, soulignant que le cancer n’est plus une menace lointaine, mais une urgence sanitaire croissante. Une crise sanitaire en expansion Chaque année, le Togo enregistre environ 5 500 nouveaux cas de cancer, dont plus de 3 000 décès — un taux de mortalité qui reflète un accès insuffisant au diagnostic précoce et aux traitements.

L’allaitement au cœur des priorités sanitaires au Togo

Le Togo a lancé officiellement la Semaine mondiale de l’allaitement maternel 2025 ce samedi, marquant le début d’une campagne nationale de sensibilisation sur l’allaitement exclusif, présenté comme un pilier fondamental de la santé et du développement de l’enfant. Célébrée chaque année pendant la première semaine d’août, l’édition 2025 insiste particulièrement sur la nécessité de mettre en place des systèmes de soutien durables pour les mères — car si l’allaitement est un acte naturel, il nécessite plus que l’instinct : il exige éducation, encouragement et environnement favorable. Une pratique qui sauve des vies L’allaitement va bien au-delà d’un simple geste alimentaire : c’est le premier système immunitaire de l’enfant. Selon l’Organisation mondiale de la Santé (OMS), le lait maternel : Renforce le système immunitaire, Favorise une croissance saine et le développement cérébral, Réduit les risques d’infections, de diarrhée et de maladies […]

Le Togo renforce son armée face aux incursions jihadistes

Dans un contexte régional marqué par une insécurité croissante, l’armée togolaise continue de renforcer ses effectifs pour faire face à la montée de la violence dans le nord du pays. Vendredi à Kara, 71 élèves-officiers, dont 4 femmes, ont reçu leurs galons à l’École de Formation des Officiers des Forces Armées Togolaises (EFOFAT), intégrant officiellement les Forces armées togolaises (FAT). Cette 29e promotion arrive à un moment crucial pour la sécurité nationale. Depuis plusieurs années, la région des Savanes, frontalière du Burkina Faso, est la cible d’attaques terroristes récurrentes perpétrées par des groupes jihadistes infiltrés depuis le Sahel. Plusieurs localités du nord ont été touchées, entraînant des pertes humaines, des déplacements de population et un climat d’insécurité durable. Une armée en pleine modernisation Consciente de ces défis, l’armée togolaise accélère sa modernisation. L’objectif est clair : protéger le territoire, sécuriser […]
