      • "content": "The Ghana Coalition Against Galamsey has called for the urgent prosecution of Akonta Mining Ltd, accusing the government of deliberate inaction in holding the company and its officials accountable for illegal mining activities. In a strongly worded statement issued on Sunday, 18 May, the coalition expressed outrage over the delayed sanctions despite documented evidence of wrongdoing. “The Ghana Coalition Against Galamsey is highly disappointed and shocked by the government’s copious failure to enforce Ghana’s laws against the criminal conduct of Akonta Mining Ltd,” Convenor Kenneth Ashigbey noted in the statement. “Through its own investigations, the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources published a documentary on the illegal activities of Akonta Mining and the extent of devastation caused by their irresponsible and unlawful activities. We were assured of swift action against the directors of Akonta mining and government officials (Mineral Commission, Forestry Commission and Security Services) found culpable through negligence or aiding and abetting. It has been a month on, and yet no arrest has been effected, nor has prosecution commenced. This sets a dangerous precedent as it paints a picture of the reign of impunity and political accommodation”. READ ALSO: Spare parts dealers instructed to slash prices to reflect cedi gains The anti-galamsey body noted that Akonta Mining has been operating illegally since 2022, contributing significantly to the pollution of the Tano River and the destruction of the Tano Nimiri Forest Reserve. While acknowledging the freezing of Akonta Mining’s accounts as confirmation of wrongdoing, the coalition stressed that “there is no justification for the continued delay in prosecuting those responsible.” The group is therefore urging the government “to arrest and prosecute the Managing Director/CEO, all Directors of Akonta Mining Ltd, and any culpable government officials without further delay, as a clear testament of its commitment to fighting galamsey”.

      • "content": "These men were accused of being part of the prohibited organisation, the West Togoland group The ECOWAS Court of Justice has ordered the government of Ghana to pay $75,000 in damages for violating the fundamental human rights of 30 members of the Homeland Study Group Foundation (HSGF), also known as Western Togoland activists. The court ruled that the state violated the rights of the so-called Western Togolanders by detaining them for more than a year without trial, and ordered that each of the 30 members be paid $2,500 in compensation. On May 16, 2025, the High Court in Accra also acquitted and discharged three Ghanaians who had been linked to the group. Following the ruling, the three men shared the ordeals they had endured over the past five years since their arrest. Overjoyed by their acquittal, the men revealed they were detained by the state for more than three years without trial. One of the men, who identified himself as Richard, a mason, said he was working at his site when soldiers brutalised and arrested him. He recounted that to date, he cannot feel parts of his right leg, which was injured during the arrest. He added that as a result of the incident, he lost his wife and children, who chose not to associate with him due to the allegations. “I don’t know anything called Western Togoland. They came to meet me at my site, I’m a construction worker. The soldiers attacked me, shocked me. Even right now, this leg is not working,” Richard said. “You put me in jail for three and a half years without bail. Today they are saying I didn’t do anything... I’m so happy to have my freedom. But what I’ve gone through for five good years... As I’m standing here, I don’t know where my family is now.” He continued, “My wife left me, packed everything in my house. So, I can’t find my wife or any of my children. I have three children, two girls and one boy, I don’t know where they are now.” The three men were acquitted and discharged by the High Court after being accused of belonging to a prohibited organisation. The court found that the state had failed to establish any concrete link between the men and the Western Togoland group.

      • "content": "Nollywood superstar Mercy Johnson-Okojie has finally responded to the recent public stir caused by her dramatic weight loss, which has been the subject of intense discussion across social media platforms. In a video she shared online, the beloved actress addressed the backlash, emphasising her acceptance of public scrutiny and her decision to remain unbothered by negative commentary. In the now-viral clip, Mercy Johnson appeared calm and upbeat, choosing a lighthearted tone to tackle the buzz surrounding her new appearance. She admitted that she fully understands why people are talking, especially when something out of the ordinary catches their attention. “I understand people will talk when they see something strange, and they will also talk even when they don’t see anything strange,” she said with a smile. The actress, known for her versatility and emotional depth on screen, made it clear that she is not shaken by the noise around her transformation. “Let people talk whatever they want to talk,” she added. Social media had been awash with mixed reactions since Mercy Johnson’s new physique surfaced online. While some fans praised her dedication and admired her slimmer figure, others speculated about her health, with a few even questioning whether she had undergone surgery or was ill. The speculation was further fueled by her silence—until now. In her video, Johnson refrained from directly addressing the health rumors or the specific cause of her weight loss. Instead, she chose to focus on the broader issue of public perception and the often impossible standards celebrities are held to. “Whether you do something or not, people will always find something to say,” she noted. She also used the opportunity to remind her fans and followers about the importance of self-confidence and inner peace. “What matters most is how you feel about yourself. Once you are happy, healthy, and at peace, that’s enough,” she said. Despite the online scrutiny, the mother of four continues to engage with her audience through her social media platforms. Her recent posts have included behind-the-scenes footage of new projects, family moments, and her usual humorous skits, demonstrating that she remains committed to her career and personal brand.",

      • "content": "Mpox cases have risen to four, following a fresh outbreak in May 2025. Two additional cases have been confirmed in Accra by the Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health Service, following the first reported case on Thursday, May 15. The latest infections, one in the Greater Accra Region and another in the Western Region, were confirmed in a statement released by GHS Director-General Prof. Samuel Kaba Akoriyea on Sunday, May 18. The release said the respective regional health directorates have promptly activated public health measures, including contact tracing, to prevent further spread of the virus. Preliminary assessments indicate that these two newly confirmed cases have no epidemiological link to the earlier reported cases. “We take this opportunity to remind the public that Mpox is a viral disease transmitted to humans through close contact with an infected person, animal, or contaminated materials. “Common symptoms include rash, fever, headache, muscle aches, back pain, low energy, and swollen lymph nodes,” the release added. Ghana’s outbreak of Mpox began on June 8, 2022, when five initial cases were reported. By November 2023, the country had confirmed a total of 34 cases. Before this outbreak, Mpox was not known to be endemic in Ghana. A circular signed by the Director-General of the Ghana Health Service called for a renewed response to the threat, including improved detection and response strategies. Mpox is a viral illness similar to smallpox. It typically causes fever, swollen lymph nodes, and a rash. The virus spreads through direct contact with an infected person’s skin or bodily fluids, including through sexual contact. Symptoms may include fever, rash or lesions, tiredness, headaches, muscle and back pain, and swollen glands. Across Africa, the disease remains a major concern. As of March 2025, more than 24,200 cases and around 260 deaths have been recorded in 22 countries. The Democratic Republic of the Congo has been hardest hit, accounting for a large share of both the cases and the fatalities.

      • "content": "Asante Kotoko delivered a resounding a 4-1 victory over Dreams FC at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday, while the battle for survival intensified with key wins for Karela United and Vision FC in match week 31 of the Premier League. Poku Stars in Kotoko rout Kwame Poku was the star of the show in Kumasi, scoring a brace to help Asante Kotoko maintain their place in fourth with a dominant performance. Albert Amoah opened the scoring for the Porcupine Warriors in the 16th minute before Poku doubled the lead shortly after. Dreams FC briefly threatened a comeback when Jonathan Nemoredeen pulled one back, but Poku’s second goal in the 61st minute restored Kotoko’s two-goal cushion. Fernando Bassey added the icing on the cake with a well-taken fourth to seal a comprehensive win for the hosts. Kotoko now sit on 54 points with three matches remaining. Karela United climb out of Drop Zone In the relegation dogfight, Karela United secured a vital 3-1 home win over Medeama SC to move out of the bottom three. Malik Abubakar led the charge with a brace, while Ali Alhassan added the third to hand the struggling side a much-needed lifeline. Medeama managed a consolation through Godknows Dzakpasu but continued their poor form on the road. Wayo Fires Hearts to narrow win Hearts of Oak edged Berekum Chelsea 1-0 at the Golden City Park thanks to a 57th-minute strike from Mawuli Wayo. The win pushes the Phobians up to fifth, five points adrift of the top four, while Chelsea drop to 10th. Basake Holy Stars waste chance in stalemate Basake Holy Stars missed a golden opportunity to claim all three points at home against third-placed Heart of Lions, as star man Prince Tweneboah squandered a penalty in the 67th minute. The goalless draw at the AAK Ampain Arena keeps Holy Stars 12th on 37 points, while the Lions continue their strong campaign with another solid defensive display. Samartex Edge Bechem United FC Samartex 1996 continued their impressive home form with a 2-1 victory over Bechem United. Baba Musah opened the scoring for the Timber giants, helping them climb to sixth place in the table. Bechem now sit eighth after the defeat. Vision FC Keep Survival Hopes Alive Debutants Vision FC earned a crucial 2-0 win over fellow newcomers Young Apostles FC in a titanic survival clash. Second-half goals from Edmond Asante and Emmanuel Kyei Baffour proved decisive in the hard-fought encounter. The win lifts Vision to 14th with 36 points, just one behind Apostles, who occupy 13th. With just three games to go, the title race and relegation battle promise a dramatic conclusion to an already thrilling season. Get all the latest football news sent directly to your inbox",

      • "content": "CEO of the DVLA, Julius Neequaye Kotey The Chief Executive Officer of the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA), Julius Neequaye Kotey, has issued a stern warning to vehicle owners misusing Defective Vehicle (DV) plates. In a recent interview with Kasapa FM, Kotey emphasised that DV plates are intended solely for car dealers and should be used for a maximum of two weeks after a vehicle is cleared from the port. “If you are a car dealer and you are coming to sell your car, we don’t determine when you sell your car. So we give you DV plates — Defective Vehicle plates — ‘defective’ in the sense that we have not tested the car to ensure it is roadworthy,” he explained. “So that DV plate, you are supposed to use it for two weeks until you sell the car. It’s illegal to drive with DV number plates more than 14 days after clearing your vehicle from the port,” he stated. He further highlighted the misuse of these plates by individuals who are not authorised dealers. “I’ve seen a lot of people who don’t deal in cars using DV plates. And the police will be hard on them from now on. So I beg you with all humility — go and register your car if you’ve used it for more than 14 days after taking it from the port. “I once heard someone saying that he buys the plates and sells them. It’s wrong. It’s illegal. It’s criminal,” he warned. Kotey also revealed alarming discrepancies in the DVLA’s plate issuance system, noting that approximately 3,000 DV plates go unaccounted for each month, suggesting large-scale theft and illegal distribution. To combat the issue, the DVLA plans to implement a new system in 2026 to verify the authenticity of all number plates in Ghana. This initiative aims to curb the circulation of fake plates and ensure that only authorised dealers have access to DV plates. “Some of the plates are fake too. But because there’s no system to check the authenticity of the plates, we cannot do anything. But I can assure them that next year, we will have a system to check the authenticity of every plate in Ghana,” he promised. Watch the video below: ID/MA",

      • "content": "Ghanaians were left in shock upon receiving news that highlife musician Dada Kwaku Duah, popularly known as Dada KD, passed away on May 16, 2025, at the age of 56. As music lovers and industry stakeholders mourned his passing, renewed attention was brought to a Facebook post he made in 2020 following the death of actor Bishop Bernard Nyarko. Bernard Nyarko had suddenly passed on May 3, 2020, after an unknown illness, leaving many in shock. Taking to his Facebook handle upon hearing the news, Dada KD wrote: “May your gentle soul find you a perfect place to keep you, Bishop Bernard Nyarko. My regards to Kofi B and tell him it won’t be long; I’ll join you all too soon. Our industry sucks.” This message, expressing deep frustration with the state of Ghana’s music industry, was seen by many as a cry for help. Dada KD had long been vocal about the challenges faced by musicians in Ghana, lamenting the lack of support and recognition for artists. In a 2020 interview, he stated, “We celebrate the dead more than the living... People are still enjoying my music but they are not asking how I am surviving.” Fast-forward to 2025, and Dada KD has passed after battling an unknown illness. His death has reignited conversations about the well-being of artists in Ghana. Many are calling for systemic changes to provide better support for musicians, ensuring that their contributions are recognised and valued during their lifetimes. See the post below: ID/MA",

That maturity is rare for someone his age.Sulemanas patience paid off with a crucial goal that not only showcased his skill but also his composure in high-pressure moments.With two games remaining this season, the midfielder is expected to get more minutes as Gasperini evaluates his squad ahead of next season.At just 21 and with a Champions League campaign now on the horizon, Sulemana is looking to cement his place in a squad renowned for developing young talent.For Atalanta, a 1 million gamble may have just turned into a long-term investment with rich rewards.

Barker-Vormawor, who was finishing his undergraduate studies at the University of Ghana, Legon, when the request arrived, says he learned of it late one night from Raymond Atuguba—an associate of Mahama’s office. With only hours to spare, he set aside sleep and crafted the speech that would later be hailed as a unifying message during a moment of national shock. “I’m most proud of John Mahama’s address to Parliament after Mills died because I wrote that speech,” Barker-Vormawor recounted in a recent interview. He described working through the night, “sleeping on the floor” as he put the finishing touches on the text that Mahama would read the following morning. On his work, Barker-Vormawor said the speech’s strength lay in its ability to transcend partisan divides. “It’s the most bipartisan address I’ve ever heard,” he stated, explaining that he believed President Mills’s death should serve as an opportunity for collective renewal. His own aspirations for the country, he said, were woven into the final version, which called for unity and hope amid grief. President Atta Mills, Ghana’s third democratically elected leader, died on July 24, 2012, at Accra’s 37 Military Hospital, just three days after celebrating his 68th birthday. Constitutionally, Vice President Mahama was sworn in that same day, later securing victory in the December 2012 general election.",

The new cases were identified in the Greater Accra and Western regions. Both individuals have no known epidemiological link to the previously reported cases. The GHS, in a statement signed and issued by its Director General, Prof Samuel Kaba Akoriyea, on Sunday, May 18, said it has activated public health measures, including contact tracing, to prevent further spread of the virus. Health authorities are urging the public to practice regular hand hygiene, avoid close contact with individuals exhibiting symptoms such as rashes, and report any suspected cases to the nearest health facility immediately. Mpox is a viral disease transmitted to humans through close contact with an infected person, animal, or contaminated materials. Common symptoms include rash, fever, headache, muscle aches, back pain, low energy, and swollen lymph nodes. The public is strongly advised to: practice regular hand hygiene, avoid close contact with individuals exhibiting symptoms such as rashes and report any suspected cases to the nearest health facility immediately. “The Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health Service call on all media houses to support public education efforts by using their platforms to raise awareness and provide accurate information on Mpox.” “The Government of Ghana remains committed to safeguarding public health. Drawing on our experience in managing similar outbreaks, we will continue to implement appropriate measures to protect the health and well-being of all residents,” the GHS further said.",

      • "content": "The Ghana Coalition Against Galamsey has issued a strong call for the immediate prosecution of Akonta Mining Ltd, accusing the government of failing to act on clear evidence of the company’s involvement in illegal mining activities that have devastated forest reserves and polluted critical water bodies. In a statement released on Sunday, May 18, and signed by its Convenor, Kenneth Ashigbey, the Coalition expressed “shock and disappointment” over what it described as government inaction, despite public evidence of Akonta Mining’s unlawful operations in forest reserves and along water bodies. The Coalition warned that the failure to prosecute the company and any complicit government officials sends a dangerous message of impunity and selective justice. According to the group, Akonta Mining has been operating illegally since 2022, contributing significantly to the pollution of the Tano River and the destruction of the Tano Nimiri Forest Reserve. These claims are supported by an investigative documentary produced by the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources, which detailed the environmental damage linked to the company’s activities. The Coalition noted that the Ministry’s findings provided sufficient grounds for prosecution—yet no legal action has been taken. While acknowledging the government’s move to freeze Akonta Mining’s bank accounts, the group insisted this was “only a partial measure” and stressed that it could not replace full criminal prosecution. In addition to pursuing charges against the company, the Coalition also called for the arrest and prosecution of officials from the Minerals Commission, Forestry Commission, and security services who may have aided, abetted, or negligently enabled Akonta Mining’s illegal operations.",

      • "content": "Somewhere in Europe, a man in a tailored suit clutched a wine glass and muttered the most revealing insult of the decade. Not in a bar, not on a private yacht on the Riviera, but in the polished corridors of power. Thierry Breton, former French Economy Minister, slipped—no, swaggered—into what some call brutal honesty. Or was it a colonial hangover talking? Breton’s words rang like the stubborn echo of a dying empire. He accused Emmanuel Macron, France’s young and restless President, of a cardinal sin: stupidity. Not your average kind—the type that, according to Breton, accidentally handed Africa a mirror to see its own face. A terrifying thing, apparently. Breton fears that this reflection will lead to revolution. “If France loses its colonies, our children and grandchildren will go to Africa in search of their livelihoods,” he moaned, almost tearfully. “Immigration will change direction.” Dear reader, let’s pause. Breathe. Sip some sobolo. Then read that again. So, the secret is out. Africa is not a basket case; it’s the breadbasket-in-waiting. What they fear is not our poverty—it’s our potential. If we dare to wake up, stand up, and show up, the colonists will line up at our embassies, visa in hand, CV in folder, asking for opportunities. And just when you thought he’d stop digging his own neocolonial grave, Monsieur Breton went for the jugular: “Africa has no history, therefore cannot run the world.” Ahem. Where do we begin, monsieur? With the ancient empires of Mali and Ghana, when Paris was still a muddy village? Or with Imhotep, the African architect who built the world’s first stone structures while Europe was still grappling with tribal face paint? Kwame Nkrumah must be turning in his grave—but probably not with sorrow. Perhaps with a revolutionary chuckle. For it was Nkrumah who warned us: “Neocolonialism is the last stage of imperialism.” Now, the neocolonialists aren’t even subtle. They say the quiet part loud—and in full HD. But Africans, too, have evolved. Gone are the days when we’d say “yes, massa” with a smile and carry bales of cotton for compliments. The winds from Bamako to Ouagadougou now blow with grit. Soldiers in fatigues and civilians in frustration are writing a new history—one of reclamation, self-determination, and, dare I say, swagger. Breton’s strange confidence that “if one of the putschists’ heads falls, the rest will abandon the vision” is telling. These guys still think Africa is a game of dominoes—knock one, and the rest will follow. But Africa is no longer a game board; it is the player. The pawns have read the playbook. This is not an article to glorify coups. No. But when desperation becomes a language, people listen to whoever speaks it—whether in suits or uniforms. The underlying message is simple: Africa is not a problem to be solved but a people to be respected. So, what’s the takeaway? Our leaders must wake up. And not the kind of political yawning we see after donor breakfasts. Real awakening. The type that reads our own history, guards our sovereignty, educates our youth, feeds our people, and stops begging for what we already have. To African leaders: You were not elected to be caretakers of colonial leftovers. You were chosen to be architects of a future worthy of our past. Beware the flattery of global summits and the sweet poison of aid with a flag on it. The words of our enemies are revealing, but the silence of our leaders is deafening. And if you ever forget your place in history, just remember: those who think Africa has no history are usually those who fear it the most. Did this post make you laugh, think—or both?

Despite limited minutes throughout the season, the Ghanaian never agitated for a move in January.Instead, he remained focused on learning from his more experienced teammates and absorbing the demands of top-flight Italian football.He trains hard, stays positive, and respects the teams decisions, said a source close to the club. That maturity is rare for someone his age.Sulemanas patience paid off with a crucial goal that not only showcased his skill but also his composure in high-pressure moments.With two games remaining this season, the midfielder is expected to get more minutes as Gasperini evaluates his squad ahead of next season.At just 21 and with a Champions League campaign now on the horizon, Sulemana is looking to cement his place in a squad renowned for developing young talent.For Atalanta, a 1 million Euros gamble may have just turned into a long-term investment with rich rewards. For Ghana, its another rising star to watch as the Black Stars look to rebuild their midfield for the future.",

      • "content": "Jamie Carragher (L) has criticised Kudus (R) over poor performances Former English footballer Jamie Carragher has said that Ghanaian forward Mohammed Kudus’ decline in form has significantly contributed to West Ham United’s struggles in the 2024/2025 season. He explained that the Black Stars player was outstanding in the 2023/2024 season, scoring many goals and providing assists to aid his side in the Premier League and the Europa League, helping them secure a respectable position. The Sky Sports pundit stated that Kudus’ dip in form this season has played a pivotal role in West Ham’s poor campaign in the Premier League, which is worrying. “Well, I see there’s no doubt he’s a quality player who should be playing for a team closer to the top of the table, not near the bottom. But probably one of the reasons why West Ham are where they are this season is because he hasn’t shown the form that he showed last season. “Last season, he looked fantastic; he just hasn’t looked the same player this season,” he said while speaking on Sky Sports on May 18, 2025. Carragher also said that he wouldn’t be surprised if Kudus is sold by the club at the end of the season to raise funds, as he is being chased by top European teams. “So, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a change there in some way, because, as you said, West Ham need the money. But other clubs might think this is an off-season for him. “Last season was the real cue to say you can get that type of player; maybe it’s a good sign. So it might be the type of situation that maybe works for the two clubs,” he added. The 24-year-old made a promising start to life in the Premier League following his switch from Ajax in 2023, contributing 14 goals and assists in his debut season. However, his performances have dipped this campaign, with only four goals and two assists in 29 league appearances.

      • "content": "The Managing Director of Ghana Water Limited (GWL), Adam Mutawakilu, has clarified that the company did not enter into any contractual agreement with the embattled former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau, Kwabena Adu-Boahene, but rather with Ghana’s National Security apparatus. Speaking on TV3’s Hot Issues with Keminni Amanor on Sunday, May 18, 2025, Mr. Mutawakilu confirmed that GWL had been paying GHC1.3 million every month since 2018 for secure internet services to what was believed to be a legitimate government agency account. “ Ghana Water Ltd had been paying GHC1.3m every month since 2018 to BNC, ” he stated. “ Ghana Water Ltd did not enter into any agreement with any individual (Kwabena Adu-Boahene), but with National Security,” he added. His comments come on the heels of revelations by Attorney General Dr. Dominic Ayine, who stated that the funds meant for National Security were allegedly redirected into the private account of BNC Communications Bureau Limited—a company reportedly linked to Adu-Boahene. The Attorney General had previously disclosed that these payments were part of a wider investigation into financial misconduct involving Adu-Boahene.\\ Read Also: ‘We inherited over GHC1 billion in debt from the previous government’ – Ghana Water MD According to Dr. Ayine, instead of channeling the payments to official government accounts, GWL was provided with private account details by Adu-Boahene. Mutawakilu’s clarification places the spotlight on the nature of the agreement, distancing the company from any direct dealings with individuals, and reaffirming GWL’s position that it acted under the belief that it was transacting with a legitimate state entity. He also stated during the interview that he is yet to see the agreement between Ghana Water Limited and National Security since assuming office as Managing Director of GWL.",

      • "content": "From L to R: Nigerian content creator Peller and Stonebwoy Nigerian content creator Peller has claimed that Ghanaian dancehall artiste Stonebwoy is not on good terms with him. During a live video session with Rudeboy, one half of the Nigerian music duo P-Square, the two were discussing Rudeboy’s new song, which features Stonebwoy. In the course of the conversation, Rudeboy asked Peller if he knew Stonebwoy. Peller responded, “Stonebwoy is fighting me.” According to Peller, his first interaction with Stonebwoy happened during a TikTok livestream. During that session, Peller mentioned that he asked Stonebwoy to fly him to Ghana. However, Stonebwoy informed him that he was in the United States for a show at the time. Peller then asked if Stonebwoy could instead fly him to the U.S. in a private jet, but Stonebwoy replied that it was already too late. “I first interacted with him on TikTok livestream where I told him I wanted him to bring me to Ghana, but he said he was in America for a show. Then I asked him to fly me there in a private jet, but he said it was too late,” Peller explained. Peller further revealed that since Stonebwoy couldn’t bring him to Ghana, he reached out to Shatta Wale, who agreed and eventually brought him over. “I then messaged Shatta Wale to bring me to Ghana, and he did,” he said. After hearing the story, Rudeboy offered his perspective, helping Peller understand what might be behind the alleged tension. He explained that the long-standing rivalry between Stonebwoy’s and Shatta Wale’s fan bases could be the cause of the misunderstanding. “Now I know where this problem is coming from. I know there’s that rivalry between them, they are not on good terms,” Rudeboy noted. Peller, upon hearing this, compared the situation to the fan rivalry between Nigerian music stars Davido and Wizkid.

      • "content": "The man (in white shirt) separated two aggrieved individuals during the chaos A church service in Accra turned chaotic after individuals identifying themselves as a taskforce stormed the premises during worship in the Greater Accra Region. An individual known as Joojo on X (formerly Twitter) shared a video showing that his congregation was in the middle of worship when the taskforce entered the auditorium and accused them of noise-making. However, according to Joojo, the congregants were merely clapping during the session without using any musical instruments, making the actions of the taskforce surprising. In the video, taskforce members can be seen in a heated altercation with some of the church members, which eventually escalated into a brief fight before it was quickly resolved. The group consisted of both men and women wearing shirts labeled “Taskforce” on the front. As of now, the identity of the taskforce and the exact reason for their actions remain unclear amid the ongoing confusion. It will be recalled that the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) recently announced a ban on drumming and noise-making in certain parts of Accra. The ban is part of preparations for the Homowo Festival, a cultural celebration by the Ga people. The directive includes restrictions on the use of loudspeakers, drums, tambourines, and other musical instruments, as well as bans on merry-making and funeral rites.

      • "content": "Smuggled cocoa beans have been intercepted in the Volta Region by police Police in the Volta Region have intercepted a fuel tanker loaded with cocoa beans, in what authorities suspect is part of a larger smuggling operation targeting Ghana’s eastern border with Togo. The operation occurred on Tuesday, May 13, 2025, in the Peki enclave, following a tip-off. The vehicle, which was believed to be transporting petrol, was instead found to be concealing a large quantity of cocoa beans. The tanker, bearing registration number GN 3801-13, was reportedly traveling from Madina in Accra to Jasikan, with its final destination suspected to be Togo, according to initial police investigations. A police spokesperson, speaking to Graphic Online in Ho on Saturday, May 17, 2025, confirmed that the vehicle had been impounded. The driver, whose identity is being withheld, has been granted bail and is assisting with ongoing investigations. “The intercepted cocoa beans have been handed over to the Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD) for proper handling,” the spokesperson said. Authorities have launched a manhunt for the owner of the tanker, who is currently on the run. The incident has raised fresh concerns about cross-border smuggling of critical national commodities such as cocoa, and the security risks posed by using legitimate-looking transport vehicles to conceal illicit trade. Security agencies have pledged to intensify surveillance and border patrols to clamp down on smuggling activities and protect Ghana’s vital export resources.

      • "content": "A viral video showing how some aggrieved Ga youths recently besieged the Dodowa office of the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs (GARHC), hooting at its current President, Oboade Notse King Professor Odaifio Welentsi III who doubles as the Paramount Chief of Nungua Traditional Area. Following a court session by the Judicial Committee of GARHC in Dodowa, the youths were seen in a viral video chasing and shouting insults at the prominent Ga chief. King Professor Odaifio Welentsi III, accompanied by traditional office holders and police escorts, faced the embarrassing confrontation, which nearly turned physical before police intervention. The angry youths, some of them clad in white traditional attire, were heard in Ga dialect hurling insults and curses at the chief. Sources close to GARHC in Dodowa suggest their anger stemmed from perceived bias in a recent chieftaincy case handled by the Judicial Committee of GARHC. In the video, the group’s leader performed a libation ritual to invoke curses on Oboade Notse King Professor Odaifio Welentsi III and other committee members involved in the disputed ruling. The exact nature of their grievances remains unclear, but tensions highlight growing discontent over chieftaincy disputes in the region. The growing corrupt practices and wrong doings currently ongoing at GARHC in Dodowa under leadership of Oboade Notse King Professor Odaifio Welentsi III need an urgent action of the Minister of Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, Hon Ahmed Ibrahim to safeguard the alarming situation. The youths have raised concerns about the unending chieftaincy disputes in Greater Accra Region and blamed the escalation of the matter on the rise of corruption practices in the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs. Following this development, they have called on the Minister for Local Government, Chieftaincy, and Religious Affairs, Hon. Ahmed Ibrahim and the Acting Chief Justice (CJ) of Ghana’s Judiciary, Mr. Paul Baffoe-Bonnie and Greater Accra Regional Minister, Madam Linda Akweley Ocloo to intervene and instruct the Judicial Committee of the GARHC to cease handling chieftaincy matters. The youths argued that some of the chiefs who sit on the GARHC’s Judicial Committee are themselves embroiled in ongoing legal disputes over their chieftaincy statuses. They believe it is a violation of legal principles for these chiefs to be involved in adjudicating chieftaincy disputes while their own cases remain pending in the courts. Recently Oboade Notse King Professor Odaifio Welentsi III has been exposed of attempting to persuade the Acting President of Ngleshie Alata Traditional Council, Nii Armah Kwaofio II to sign the Chieftaincy Declaration (CD) form for Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye. Oboade Notse King Professor Odaifio Welentsi III who doubles as the Paramount Chief Of Nungua Traditional Area is reportedly invited Nii Armah Kwaofio II through the Registrar of GARHC, Mr. Addo Enoch to his house at Nungua in Accra. The letter invited Nii Armah Kwaofio II was dated September 10, 2021 and that the previous meeting was scheduled on Monday September 13, 2021, according to the one page letter in possession of this news outlet. The news outlet understands that when Nii Armah Kwaofio II honoured the invitation of GARHC’s President to his house at Nungua, the prominent Ga Chief ordered him [Nii Armah Kwaofio Il] to sign the CD forms to give the traditional legal backing for Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye to be gazetted into the register of the chiefs as the Paramount Chief of Ngleshie Alata Traditional Area. In order to support these illegalities, Nii Armah Kwaofio II was reported to have refused to sign the CD Form for Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye and returned home with the reason that the purported installation of Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye, who declared himself as the paramount chief of the Ngleshie Alata Traditional is still remains illegal and unlawful. Although GARHC’s President didn’t succeed in pursuing Nii Armah Kwaofio to sign the CD form for Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye, they had adopted another strategies to influence some non-royals of James Town Royal Paramount Stool to sign the CD Forms for Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye. Some months ago, the membership of the GARHC led by Nungua Mantse had supported illegalities of Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye by way of performing various rituals to induct embattled Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye into the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs which has greeted with legal action against Prince Asharku Bruce Quaye. But in a quick rebuttal, the accredited elders of the Ngleshie Adanse Clan of the Ngleshie Alata Traditional Area in James Town, Accra, have strongly condemned the recent induction of Prince Asharku Bruce-Quaye into GARHC as Paramount Chief of Ngleshie Alata Traditional Area, explaining that Prince Asharku Bruce-Quaye is not James Town Mantse. Consequently, the elders accused the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs of supporting illegalities of Prince Asharku Bruce-Quaye who is parading himself as Paramount of the area which situation has created division, tension, insecurity and confusion within Ngleshie Alata Traditional Area. They indicated that It is therefore absurd and unconscionable to any right thinking person to fathom the reasoning behind what the representatives of traditional areas of Accra in the Regional House of Chiefs and their President have done. According to the elders, the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs and their President are very much aware of the numerous courts’ cases both civil and traditional ( a current case is in the Kumasi High Court) against Prince Asharku Bruce- Quaye but intentionally went ahead unperturbed to register him among the chiefs recognized by that house. “Why? What is the reason behind this? How sad. By this act, it has become very clear that the Regional House of Chiefs wants the people of Ngleshie Alata to fight among themselves and kill each other. “It is amazing to consider for example, an individual from Osu a completely different clan, to be enstooled a chief in Nungua another different clan. “This is absurd. As already stated supra, Prince Asharku Bruce-Quaye hails from Anumansa otherwise known as Kweikuma Tsoshishi a clan within James Town, but not Adanse Clan. He has no relation in Adanse Clan why is Prince Asharku Bruce- Quaye forcing himself to be seen as an Adanse clan subject,” the elders clarified. In a strong worded press statement, the elders described the induction as illegal and fraudulent, citing ongoing legal disputes over Bruce-Quaye’s legitimacy. They provided historical documentary proof to support their claim that Prince Asharku Bruce-Quaye installation was done without following due customary and traditional procedures and that he does not belong to the rightful ruling royal house,Adanse Mantse We, which is next in line to produce a paramount chief. Accordibg to the elders of the clan, there are two ruling houses in James Town, Adjumanku Dawurampon and Adanse Mantse We. They explained that these two houses provide the paramount chief on a rotational basis, adding that the late paramount chief of Ngleshie Alata Traditional Area, Oblempon Kojo Ababio V came from the Adjumanku Dawurampon house. The elders clarified that it is now the turn of Adanse Mantse We to provide a candidate. “Now, Prince Asharku- Bruce Quaye does not even meet the first criteria for selection. “He does not hail from Adanse Mantse We. He comes from Anumansa also known as Kwei Kuma Tsoshishi. That basically disqualifies him. Now lets look at the rites he claims he has gone through to become a so called paramount chief. They also accused Bruce-Quaye of forcefully breaking into the James Town Stool Room to undergo unlawful rites, further invalidating his claim to the title. They called on the Regional House of Chiefs to reverse his induction, warning that failure to do so could lead to unrest. With multiple court cases challenging his legitimacy, the elders of Ngleshie Adanse Clan insists that any attempt to impose Bruce-Quaye on the people of Ngleshie Alata Traditional Area will be met with legal action. The elders cautioned all those involved in trying to force Prince Asharku Quaye on Ngleshie Alata to stop what they are doing and allow the proper customary and traditional things to be done, otherwise there is a real potential of serious trouble erupting. They fumed that “We will use all options available to us including legal options reverse what has been done and revert back to the status quo ante.” Additionally, the Registrar at the Dodowa office of GARHC, Mr Addo Enoch and one lady by name Priscilla popularly known as Mammy Osofo including Registrar of Ngleshie Alata Traditional Area, Mr Jeffrey Lomo have also been exposed for wrong doings which had affected effective justice delivery systems in chieftaincy institutions in Accra. The alarming corrupt practices had informed a growing demand placed on Chieftaincy Minister to muster up the courage to transfer Mr Addo Enoch, Mr Jeffrey Lomo and Priscilla to help settle the long running James Town Royal Paramount Chieftaincy dispute at Ngleshie Alata Traditional Area in Accra. The call has become very necessary because, according to the information available to this news outlet, Mr Enoch, Mr Lomo and Priscilla, were interfering in the paramount chieftaincy matters in the area. Mr Addo Enoch was alleged to have played a leading role in wrongful transfer of the former Registrar of Ngleshie Alata Traditional Council, Madam Mercy Asante to the Dodowa office of GARHC, she is working at her current office without any portfolio, making her looks sad and dormant. The Chieftaincy Minister was asked to commission a full scale of investigations in the illegalities of Mr Addo Enoch and Priscilla at the GARHC by way of inviting Madam Mercy Asante to testify on how she was wrongfully transferred from the office of Ngleshie Alata Traditional Council on the direct influence of Mr Addo Enoch. The foregoing call on the Sector Minister by a cross section of youth groups and kingmakers follow the current surge of insecurity, tensions and confusions at James Town in Accra, in relation on how Mr Addo Enoch, Mr Jeffrey Lomo and Madam Priscilla were exposed for interfering and influencing various chieftaincy cases in Ngleshie Alata Traditional Council and GARHC. The three persons were reported to have been conflicting James Town Royal Paramount Stool chieftaincy case at GARHC which situation has becoming a growing concern to youths and kingmakers persistent cases of chieftaincy conflict in Accra. The three were accused for lending supreme support through President of GARHC, Oboade Notse King Professor Odaifio Welentsi III to Prince Ashiaku Bruce Quaye to use abrupt force to wrongfully take over chieftaincy status in James Town, under the Stool name Obrempong Wetse Kojo II.",

      • "content": "Sofia, May 18, BTA/GNA – The national tourism portal of Bulgaria now operates under the name and domain VisitBulgaria.com, the Ministry of Tourism said on Sunday. The change represents the first major step in a wider rebranding and digital transformation of Bulgaria’s international tourism presence. Replacing the previous domain BulgariaTravel.org with VisitBulgaria.com forms part of a long-term vision to create not merely an information site but a genuine digital platform that inspires travellers, simplifies destination choice and offers an experience before a journey even begins, Tourism Minister Miroslav Borshosh said. “The new name makes Bulgaria far easier to recognise online. We are building a digital image that is more modern, more functional and more distinctive. This is not simply a rebranding exercise but a strategic process that will strengthen the country’s digital footprint and global positioning. In a world in which attention is the most valuable resource, this step is essential,” Borshosh said. The new domain places Bulgaria in a truly global context, supports its positioning as a tourism destination and greatly simplifies access to information for travellers both inside the country and in key source markets. The switch follows established international practice; the “visit + country name + .com” structure is already used by Portugal (VisitPortugal.com), Czechia (VisitCzechia.com), Denmark (VisitDenmark.com) and Saudi Arabia (VisitSaudi.com). The broader strategy will introduce new functions, a redesigned website, interactive content, a clearer structure and a mobile application that will help users plan itineraries and receive personalised information. VisitBulgaria.com will remain the principal digital platform for promoting the country, combining destination and attraction details with contemporary visuals, video, interactive routes and dynamic content tailored to different markets.

      • "content": "Pope Leo XIV wearing the fisherman’s ring (L) and details of the ring (R) The leader of the Catholic Church, Pope Leo XIV, who was elected by the cardinals on May 9, 2025, was officially inaugurated on Sunday, May 18, 2025, nine days after his election. At the inauguration, Pope Leo XIV was formally bestowed with several sacred symbols of his office, including the pallium and the fisherman’s ring. The pallium, according to an article published by CNN, is a “lamb’s wool vestment symbolising his pastoral care for the Church,” while the fisherman’s ring “symbolises the Pope’s authority as the successor of St. Peter, a fisherman by trade and whom Catholics regard as the first pope.” The ring, presented to Pope Leo XIV by Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, is made of gold and bears an image of St. Peter fishing. Traditionally, the ring of a deceased pope is taken to the College of Cardinals, where it is scratched or broken to ensure it can never be used again. This act symbolises the end of the pope’s papacy. In the past, the ring served as the official seal for papal documents, and its destruction prevented forgery. Details of Pope Leo XIV’s fisherman’s ring, as shared by the Vatican, reveal an image of St. Peter engraved on the outer band, with “Leo XIV” and the Pope’s coat of arms engraved on the inner side. Visuals from St. Peter’s Square, where the inaugural Mass was held, captured the moment Cardinal Tagle, a close friend of the Pope, presented him with the fisherman’s ring. After receiving it, Pope Leo XIV was seen gazing at the ring in a moment of solemn reflection.
