FDA to inspect school food vendors in Central Region

The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) in the Central Region has announced plans to inspect the certifications of food vendors in schools to ensure that pupils are served safe and healthy meals. Regional Director of the FDA, Francisca Anokye, said the initiative is aimed at preventing uncertified vendors from operating in schools, a move she believes will protect children from foodborne illnesses. She revealed this during a food safety training programme held in Cape Coast for School Health Education Promoters (SHEP). The programme was organised in collaboration with the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and forms part of broader efforts to improve food safety practices. Francisca Anokye noted that food vendors across the region are also being trained under the partnership with FAO to curb outbreaks of food-related illnesses, with Ghana already recording four such incidents this year.

Felix Kwakye Ofosu says MPs face immense pressure

Member of Parliament for Abura-Asebu-Kwamankese and Minister of State in charge of Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has described the role of MPs as one of the most challenging in Ghana’s governance structure. Speaking on Channel One, Mr. Ofosu admitted that he underestimated the weight of the position until he took office himself. “I must indicate that contesting and running for MP has opened my eyes to a lot of things. I used to underestimate the kind of stress that MPs come under,” he said. He explained that MPs face relentless pressure because they are the most visible and approachable representatives of their constituencies. “They are the face of the constituencies. They are the ones that people know. So people go to them with all manner of requests that stretch them to their limits,” he noted. Mr. Ofosu further argued […]

Ashanti assembly member killed sparks investigation

The Ashanti Regional Security Council has launched a full-scale investigation into the killing of Samuel Danquah, the assembly member of Aboabo in the Amansie West District. The incident occurred after an altercation between residents of Mpatuam and security officers of Asanko Mines, which left Danquah dead and two others with gunshot wounds.

Nkwanta South MCE warns of revenue shortfall, conflict

The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of Nkwanta South, Joseph Antwi Awal, has highlighted the urgent need to strengthen revenue mobilisation as the assembly grapples with a major financial shortfall caused by ongoing conflicts in the area. With a target of GHS 550,000 for 2025, the assembly has so far managed to collect only GHS 300,000. Mr. Awal expressed concern that this gap threatens the sustainability of local governance and the implementation of key development projects. Delivering his sessional address at the ninth assembly meeting, he attributed the shortfall to weak tax collection mechanisms and persistent insecurity in the municipality. He warned that without decisive action, essential services and infrastructure projects could be stalled. To close the gap, the MCE proposed tougher tax collection measures, the creation of a dedicated task force to identify system loopholes, and public education campaigns on […]

Government Allocates GH¢1 Billion to End Double-Track in Senior High Schools

The government has announced a GH¢1 billion allocation to phase out the double-track system in senior high schools across Ghana. The Education Minister, Haruna Iddrisu, revealed this plan during the inauguration of a new staff accommodation facility at Accra Girls’ Senior High School. The investment, expected to feature in next year’s budget, will be sourced from the Ghana Education Trust Fund (GETFund) and directed toward addressing long-standing infrastructure deficits in the education sector. The double-track system was first introduced in the 2018/2019 academic year as a temporary solution to manage overcrowding in schools after the Free SHS policy significantly increased enrolment. Students were divided into two groups who alternated in cycles, making it possible to maximize existing facilities. While it provided a short-term fix, the system was never intended as a permanent feature. Haruna Iddrisu explained that the proposed investment […]

Court Remands NPP’s Abronye DC for Second Time

The Accra Circuit Court has for the second time remanded the Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, into police custody for one week.

Ghana MP Petitions Diplomats Over Wave of Arrests

The Member of Parliament for Old Tafo, Vincent Ekow Assafuah of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has petitioned the diplomatic community over what he calls an alarming wave of arrests under the current government. In a strongly worded letter addressed to the Dean of the Diplomatic Corps in Ghana, he argued that the country has been plunged into a climate of fear where citizens are punished for expressing dissenting views. Mr. Assafuah urged the international community to intervene and encourage the government to uphold Ghana’s democratic values. According to him, the arrests reflect a troubling culture of intimidation that undermines the rule of law and basic freedoms. “I humbly petition your high office to take urgent note of the disturbing developments currently unfolding in our country, Ghana, since the assumption of office by the NDC government on 7 January 2025,” […]
