Ghana to Seek Extradition of Russian Suspect

Ghana says it intends to seek the extradition of a Russian national accused of secretly recording sexual encounters with several women and sharing the footage online without their consent. African and Russian media have identified the suspect as a self-styled “pick-up artist” and blogger in his 30s who travelled to Ghana and allegedly filmed his interactions with women.

Ghana : Baba Jamal rappelé de son poste au Nigeria

Le président ghanéen John Dramani Mahama a ordonné, ce samedi, le rappel immédiat de Mohammed Baba Jamal Ahmed, plus connu sous le nom de Baba Jamal, de son poste de Haut-Commissaire du Ghana auprès de la République fédérale du Nigeria. Cette décision fait suite à des allégations d’irrégularités survenues lors des primaires du National Democratic Congress (NDC), organisées le même jour dans la circonscription d’Ayawaso East. Baba Jamal y participait en tant que candidat et a été déclaré vainqueur du scrutin interne avec une courte avance d’environ trente voix sur sa concurrente. Selon le communiqué officiel de la présidence, des soupçons d’incitation des électeurs, notamment d’achat de votes, pèsent sur plusieurs candidats ayant pris part à ces primaires.

Ghana to import fuel from Dangote refinery

The Government of Ghana has pledged to start importing petroleum products from the Dangote Petroleum Refinery in Lagos, Nigeria, as part of plans to strengthen energy security and cut costs.​ Ghana’s Energy Minister, Matthew Opoku Prempeh, gave the assurance during a visit to the 650,000 barrels per day refinery, where he inspected facilities and held talks with the management team.

Ghana inflation falls to five year low

Ghana’s inflation rate eased to 3.8 percent in January, the lowest level since the consumer price index was rebased in 2021, extending a 13 month run of slowing price growth.​ Data from the Ghana Statistical Service showed prices rose by 0.2 percent compared with December, as both food and non food costs continued to moderate. Food inflation slowed to 3.9 percent year on year, while non food prices declined by 0.4 percent on a monthly basis.​ The steady fall in inflation has encouraged the Bank of Ghana to shift policy. The central bank cut its benchmark interest rate by 250 basis points to 15.50 percent last week to support economic growth while keeping prices under control.​ Officials say the disinflation trend has been driven by a stronger cedi, lower import costs and better food supply, backed by tighter monetary policy […]
