George Mireku Duker Tells Court Mineral Rights Assignments Must Be in Writing

Former Deputy Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, George Mireku Duker, has told the High Court that Ghana’s mining laws require all assignments of mineral rights to be made through written documentation and not through verbal agreements. Mr Duker made the remarks on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, while testifying for the defence in the ongoing trial involving Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi, and his company, Akonta Mining. The case centers on allegations that Akonta Mining permitted two individuals, Henry Okum and Michael Gyedu Ayisi, to carry out mining activities on the company’s concession without obtaining prior approval from the Minister responsible for mining. Prosecutors also accuse the company of facilitating illegal mining operations. Speaking before the court, Mr Duker explained that during his time at the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources, any official assignment involving mineral rights […]

Audit Exposes GHS427m Payroll Scandal at Defence Ministry

A shocking audit report has uncovered a massive payroll scandal involving a senior government official who allegedly received over GHS427 million in unearned salaries over 29 months. The individual at the center of the controversy, Frank Oliver Kpodo, served as Director of Procurement at the Ministry of Defence Ghana during the period under review. Millions Paid for No Work Done According to findings by the Auditor-General of Ghana, the payments were made between January 2023 and June 2025. On average, this amounts to more than GHS14 million per month—funds reportedly paid without corresponding work. The audit, which examined government payroll systems, aimed to ensure that only legitimate employees receive salaries. Instead, it exposed what appears to be a deeply flawed system. Part of a Larger Payroll Leak The report found that over 6,000 government employees collectively received more than GHS800 […]

Old Tafo MP Questions NPRA Sole Sourcing, Raises Transparency Concerns

The Member of Parliament for Old Tafo Constituency, Vincent Ekow Assafuah, has raised fresh concerns about procurement practices at the National Pensions Regulatory Authority (NPRA). He warned that the growing use of sole sourcing could undermine transparency and value for money. Questions Over High-Value Contracts Speaking on Dwaso Nsem on Adom FM, Assafuah pointed to several major contracts awarded through sole sourcing. These include: A consultancy deal worth GH¢4.2 million A vehicle procurement arrangement exceeding GH¢17 million and $160,000 According to him, the repeated reliance on sole sourcing for such high-value transactions raises serious concerns about due process. “Sole sourcing is meant for urgency and necessity, not convenience and favouritism,” he stated. Concerns Over Costly Consultancy Engagements The MP also questioned the need for certain consultancy services. He noted that a reported monthly cost of about GH¢175,000 could suggest duplication […]

Ransford Gyampo Defends Reparations Comments, Backs Mahama’s UN Efforts

The Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Shippers Authority, Ransford Gyampo, has pushed back against criticism over his recent comments on reparations. In a Facebook post, he described the backlash as “nation-wrecking propaganda,” insisting that his remarks had been taken out of context. Comments Taken from Broader Policy Discussion According to Gyampo, the circulating statements were extracted from a wider discussion during his appearance on Key Points, a news analysis programme on TV3. He explained that the conversation examined reparations within an academic and policy framework, rather than as a standalone political statement. Reparations Must Be Matched with Internal Reforms Drawing from academic work at the University of Ghana, Gyampo noted that African development strategies have evolved through multiple phases—from import substitution policies to structural adjustment programmes and global development frameworks. Within that context, he acknowledged that the transatlantic slave […]

Depoliticise Galamsey Fight Now, Lands Ministry Official Urges

A senior official at Ghana’s Lands Ministry is calling for a reset in the fight against illegal mining, warning that political interference continues to weaken progress. Paa Kwesi Schandorf, Media Relations Officer at the Ministry, says Ghana must now treat galamsey as a national crisis—not a political battleground. “Galamsey Is a National Issue, Not a Political One” Speaking on Dwaso Nsem on Adom FM after a briefing by NAIMOS, he stressed the need for a unified approach. “We have reached a point where we must take politics out of the galamsey fight,” he said. According to him, past efforts have been affected by political considerations, making it harder to achieve lasting results. Illegal Mining Cuts Across Party Lines Schandorf pointed out that illegal mining is not tied to any single political group. Members of both the New Patriotic Party and […]
