Elikem Kotoko Wants Akufo-Addo Prosecuted Over National Cathedral ‘Organised Crime’ Allegations

Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the Forestry Commission, Elikem Kotoko, says he would welcome the sight of former President Nana Akufo-Addo being “hauled to court” over what he describes as financial irregularities and organised corruption linked to the construction of the National Cathedral. Speaking on JoyNews’ AM Show, Kotoko accused the former president of masterminding what he called “an organised crime unit set up to siphon or launder state funds” under the guise of a religious project. “Let me be frank with you, if wishes were horses, I would be happy to see even former president Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo being hauled to court to answer for that hole he dug, which seems to be an organised crime unit that he set up to siphon or launder state funds,” he said. Kotoko drew a sharp contrast between Akufo-Addo’s actions and […]

Trump Urges Pardon for Netanyahu in Corruption Trial

US President Donald Trump has publicly called for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be pardoned from his ongoing corruption trials. Speaking before the Israeli parliament, Trump dismissed the charges, which allege Netanyahu accepted over $260,000 in luxury gifts like cigars and champagne in exchange for political favors. "Cigars and champagne, who the hell cares about that?" Trump joked, before directly suggesting the Israeli president grant a pardon. Netanyahu has denied all wrongdoing, and his supporters claim the trials are politically motivated. The Israeli president had previously hinted he might consider a pardon, stating the case "weighs heavily on Israeli society." Trump, who has faced his own legal challenges, has frequently defended Netanyahu, previously calling the investigations a "political witch hunt" similar to his own.

No visa for corrupt Nigerian officials — US Mission

The United States Mission in Nigeria has vowed to clamp down on corruption by barring corrupt, high-profile Nigerian officials from entering the country. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) yesterday, the Mission warned that its anti-corruption stance would not spare anyone, regardless of status or influence.“Fighting corruption knows no borders or limits on accountability. Even when high-profile individuals engage in corruption, they can be barred from receiving U.S. visas,” the Mission stated. The move aligns with Washington’s long-standing policy of using visa restrictions as part of its broader anti-corruption and human rights enforcement tools, targeting individuals implicated in graft, election interference, or abuse of office. Meanwhile, in the United Kingdom, opposition party Reform UK unveiled a radical new immigration policy that would abolish the right of migrants to apply for permanent settlement — known as Indefinite Leave to Remain […]

Togo : Olympio accuse Gnassingbé de diversion politique

Le porte-parole du Front "Touche pas à ma Constitution", Nathaniel Olympio, accuse le régime de Faure Gnassingbé de détourner l’attention des Togolais avec une propagande autour de la distribution de 100 000 kits scolaires pour la rentrée 2025. Selon lui, cette opération, financée par la Banque mondiale, ne répond pas aux véritables besoins des populations. « Ce sont plus de 3 millions d’élèves démunis qui nécessitent un soutien, pas seulement une fraction mise en avant à des fins de communication », déplore-t-il. Il rappelle que d’autres initiatives, comme les cantines scolaires, reposent aussi sur des financements extérieurs, notamment allemands. Pour lui, ces actions ponctuelles, mises en scène sous le patronage du chef de l’État, ne constituent pas des solutions durables. Nathaniel Olympio critique également la politique d’endettement et la dépendance à l’aide étrangère, qu’il juge inefficaces face à la cherté […]

Constant Mutamba condamné à 3 ans de travaux forcés pour détournement de fonds

La Cour de cassation de la République démocratique du Congo (RDC) a condamné, mardi 2 septembre 2025, l’ancien ministre de la Justice Constant Mutamba à trois ans de travaux forcés. Il a été reconnu coupable d’avoir détourné 19 millions de dollars de fonds publics initialement destinés à la construction d’une prison à Kisangani, dans le nord du pays. Mutamba, qui avait démissionné en juin 2025, a plaidé non coupable durant tout son procès. La Cour a toutefois estimé qu’il avait agi avec l’intention de « s’enrichir illicitement » en contournant les procédures légales du projet. Cette condamnation est présentée comme un signal fort dans la lutte du gouvernement congolais contre la corruption endémique. Mais son avocat, Maître Joël Kitenge, a dénoncé un verdict « entaché d’irrégularités » : « Mutamba n’a pas volé l’argent. Notre client n’a bénéficié d’aucune circonstance […]

Nigeria Respected Again, Economy Stable — Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has declared that Nigeria’s economy is stabilising under his administration, insisting that the country is now “respected again” after years of neglect, corruption, and revenue leakages. The President made the remarks on Tuesday at the State House, Abuja, while receiving the Soun of Ogbomosho, Oba Ghandi Afolabi Laoye, Orumoge III, alongside ministers and senior government officials. Tinubu said his government’s tough but necessary decisions since May 2023 had ended the “bleeding” of public funds and restored discipline to the economy. “Thank you for recognising the bold steps we took from Day One. We know it was painful at first, but reforms are already making the economy stronger,” Tinubu said. He explained that years of fake financial records, smuggling, and corruption in the currency market had weakened the country, but recent reforms were reversing the trend. Highlighting progress, […]
