I do not agree threshold for a prima facie case against the CJ is low – Barker-Vormawor

Constitutional Rights and Policy Strategy Advisor at Democracy Hub, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, has strongly contested the assertion by a former Deputy Attorney General, Diana Asonaba Dapaah, that the threshold for establishing a prima facie case against the Chief Justice is low. Speaking on JoyNews’ Newsfile on Saturday, Barker-Vormawor argued that, contrary to the Deputy AG’s claims, the threshold is considerably high, and the legal process demands a robust evidentiary basis before such a case can proceed. He maintained that, in his view, the allegations currently levelled against the Chief Justice are substantial and, when considered together, meet the necessary requirements to establish a prima facie case. Barker-Vormawor's remarks come amid growing public debate over the accountability of judicial figures and the integrity of constitutional processes in the country following petitions to the president to remove the Cheif Justice, Gertrude Torkornoo for alleged misconducts. The president […]

Bawumia funds cost of NPP’s ‘Thank You Tour’

Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the 2024 flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has personally financed the cost of the party’s nationwide ‘Thank You Tour.’ The tour, which began on Wednesday, 23rd April, is aimed at expressing appreciation to party faithful and supporters for their efforts during the 2024 general election, despite the party’s defeat.

IMF to Ghana, African nations: Tighten fiscal policies as global risks rise

Speaking at a press conference during the IMF-World Bank Spring Meetings, Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva warned that while Africa’s long-term prospects remain strong, immediate policy tightening is needed to navigate looming economic shocks. While Africa has been home to some of the world’s fastest-growing economies in recent years, Ms Georgieva cautioned that low-income and conflict-affected nations risk falling further behind due to the indirect effects of weakening global demand.The IMF has already revised down growth projections for the continent. The impact of current economic shocks varies across Africa. Oil-exporting nations like Nigeria face budget pressures from falling crude prices, while oil importers, including Ghana, benefit from lower energy costs. However, Ghana’s recent decision to raise interest rates for the first time in nearly three years—contrasting with Egypt’s rate cut—reflects the differing policy needs across African economies.Ms Georgieva outlined key recommendations […]

Atlantic Lithium appeals to government to help save Ghana’s first lithium mine

The company, which has invested approximately $70 million since 2016, is developing what would be Ghana’s first lithium mine.  The project, located near Mankessim in the Central Region, was expected to place Ghana among the world’s top 10 spodumene concentrate producers. However, sharp declines in lithium prices—down more than 80 per cent from their November 2022 peak—have thrown its future into uncertainty. “We have done the maths and it doesn’t make sense at all,” Atlantic Lithium's General Manager, Ahmed-Salim Adam, told Reuters. “We have written to the Minister of Lands and Natural Resources for urgent help on the fiscals. If not, the project cannot proceed.” Ghana, already Africa’s leading gold producer, had hoped to benefit from the growing global demand for electric vehicles (EVs) by establishing the Ewoyaa mine as a strategic source of lithium, a key component in EV batteries.
