Ekow Assafuah Slams OSP Bail Conditions: ‘Jesus Christ’ Required Next?

The Member of Parliament for Old Tafo, Vincent Ekow Assafuah, sharply criticized the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) during an appearance on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem program, describing the bail conditions imposed on former GACL board chair Paul Adom-Otchere as excessive and unreasonable. He mocked the requirement for two landed properties as sureties, warning that such standards could escalate absurdly: “If we’re not careful, very soon we’ll be asking for Jesus Christ, Noah’s Ark, or even the dove that returned after the Flood, as bail condition.” Assafuah stressed that Adom-Otchere poses no flight risk and questioned how a detainee could produce property documentation. He urged the OSP to exercise restraint and uphold fairness to preserve public trust in Ghana's justice system.

NASPA Executives Petition NSA over Delayed Dues & Elections

The regional presidents of the National Service Personnel Association (NASPA) have petitioned the Director-General of the National Service Authority (NSA), expressing serious concerns over ongoing delays in disbursing NASPA dues and allowances. The August 1, 2025 petition warns that the prolonged funding gap is crippling operations at regional and district levels, undermining personnel welfare initiatives across Ghana. The executives also challenged the indefinite postponement of NASPA’s national elections, calling for transparency and immediate publication of a revised election calendar. Signatories include all ten regional NASPA presidents, who have given the NSA until August 6, 2025 to respond; failure to do so would trigger further actions. Copies of the petition were shared with NSA Board members, Deputy Directors, Regional Directors, and the NASPA National Executive Committee.

Ghana Threatens DStv Licence Over Subscription Price Dispute

The Communications Minister, Samuel Nartey George, has issued a stern ultimatum to MultiChoice Ghana, warning that unless DStv subscription fees are slashed by 30%, the company could face licence suspension effective August 7, 2025. The move responds to growing public frustration as the Ghanaian cedi has appreciated about 30% over five months—yet DStv prices have not reflected this strengthening currency. Despite a recent price hike in April, consumers complain of outdated content and poor value for money. During an “Accountability Series” briefing, Minister George said: “We cannot continue to sit idle while Ghanaians are short-changed.” MultiChoice Ghana has reportedly argued that prior depreciation of the cedi over eight years validates their pricing, but George rejected that, calling for fairness. MultiChoice has until July 21 to formally respond to the demand. If they fail to comply, the NCA will suspend DStv's […]

High Court Dismisses Torkornoo Review as Abuse of Process

The Human Rights Division of the Accra High Court has dismissed the judicial review application filed by suspended Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo, with presiding judge Justice Kwame Amoako ruling on July 30, 2025, that the motion was an “abuse of court processes” and that the court lacked jurisdiction to hear the case. This marks Torkornoo’s second legal setback in efforts to halt proceedings under Article 146 of the 1992 Constitution—her earlier injunction request and constitutional petition remain pending before the Supreme Court. The June 9 application sought nine reliefs, including declarations that the Article 146 committee’s conduct was unlawful, a quashing of its proceedings, and a prohibition on continuation absent authenticated documents. However, the court found many of the issues were already under active Supreme Court review, making their re-examination at the High Court duplicative and vexatious. Justice Amoako also held that the High […]

Agbodza Denounces Past Road Claims, Launches Big Push Initiative

The Roads and Highways Minister, Kwame Governs Agbodza, used the Government Accountability Series at Jubilee House on July 30, 2025, to deliver a candid critique of the prior administration's infrastructure record. He labelled past road contract awards as chaotic and fiscally irresponsible, noting that claims of 10,800 km of paved roads were unsupported by evidence. Agbodza declared the era of unregulated, contractor‑driven estimates is over; the current government requires projects to be properly budgeted, vetted, and transparently executed. He also announced that GH₵4 billion will be released by end‑July to pay arrears and restart over 1,000 stalled road works. Additionally, he confirmed that the first batch of Big Push projects—including major bridges and outer ring roads across multiple regions—will begin within three weeks, stating the initiative is designed to connect economies and support the 24‑Hour Economy.
