    We’ve come far, let’s not tarnish our win with reckless celebrations – NDC to supporters

    The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has strongly denounced the vandalism and looting of state property that followed its victory in the 2024 presidential elections.

    In a statement issued on Monday, December 8, 2024, the party expressed profound disappointment, labeling the actions as intolerable and a threat to the nation’s stability.

    The NDC attributed some of these actions to overly exuberant supporters who let their enthusiasm for the party’s overwhelming success in the elections lead to disorderly behavior.

    “Some of these acts of vandalism and looting of state properties, are reported to have been carried out by disgruntled supporters of the New Patriotic Party who are of the belief that their party Parliamentary Candidates hoarded state-procured food items, fertilizer and other materials which were meant to be distributed before the December 7 elections, as part of the NPP’s voter inducement strategy.

    Also, some of these unfortunate incidents are reported to have been carried out by over-jubilant supporters of the NDC who have been carried away by the excitement of the party’s resounding victory in the just-ended Presidential and Parliamentary elections”, it noted.

    The party appealed to its supporters to celebrate with moderation and self-control.

    “We wish to call on Ghanaians, especially the rank and file of the NDC, to exercise restraint and to go about their jubilations with a sense of responsibility,” it noted.

    The party emphasized its unwavering commitment to governance founded on probity, accountability, and adherence to the rule of law, assuring Ghanaians that acts of lawlessness will not be accepted under the new administration.

    “The vandalism of state property, mob justice, and any form of lawless retribution have the potential to undermine the peace and stability of our dear nation, hence unacceptable,” it added.

  • Mahama, MPs must show immediate results – NDC Chair

    Mahama, MPs must show immediate results – NDC Chair

    Chair of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Council of Elders in South Africa, Benjamin Kofi Quashie, has shared his perspective on the party’s triumph over the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the 2024 elections.

    He pointed out that the victory now places a heavy responsibility on John Mahama, emphasizing the importance of delivering on the hopes and expectations of Ghanaians.

    In a Sunday interview with Happy FM, he explained that the victory was attributed to the fact that “diasporans were motivated because the country was heading in the wrong direction; motivated because we had a president full of himself and only cared about his cronies and himself; motivated because all Ghanaians helped in inflicting the defeat that the NPP had never tasted before.”

    In addition to the financial support from the diaspora, the Chair of the South Africa Council of Elders revealed that many supporters traveled to Ghana, with some taking on roles as observers and polling agents, playing a crucial part in the NDC’s victory.

    He expressed his joy over the significant impact of the diaspora’s contributions to the NDC’s success. He characterized the 2024 election result as a clear rejection of the NPP, stressing that it sends a powerful message that Ghanaian voters are alert and will no longer be taken for granted.

    “Politicians must do what they promise to do, ensuring they carry everyone along. It’s a decisive victory which puts a lot of pressure on Mr Mahama,” he stated.

    The Council of Elders Chair addressed the challenges the NDC government would face with the economy they are inheriting. He pointed out that the NDC campaigned on the theme “Resetting Ghana – Building The Ghana We Want Together.”

    He stressed that Mr. Mahama must act quickly and unite all sectors to deliver on the development goals set out during the campaign.

    “With a manifesto to work with and the ability of Mr Mahama to deliver on his promises, I think we don’t need four years and Ghanaians would begin to experience some relief in their lives,” he stated.

  • We will not allow any effort to alter election results – NPP

    We will not allow any effort to alter election results – NPP

    The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has cautioned the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to refrain from attempting to alter the outcomes in constituencies that party has claimed victory in.

    This warning follows reports of escalating tensions and violent incidents at various collation centers.

    In a statement on Sunday in Accra, NPP’s General Secretary, Justin Frimpong Kodua, condemned the disruptive actions of NDC supporters in constituencies like Damongo, Ablekuma North, and Techiman South.

    Kodua emphasized that the NPP’s internal data confirms they have won these constituencies, yet the NDC appears determined to challenge the results.

    He strongly condemned such actions, declaring that the NPP would oppose any efforts to tamper with the election results in these constituencies.

    Additionally, the NPP called on the NDC leadership to take responsibility and denounce the violent actions of their supporters at the collation centers.

    Kodua also appealed to the Inspector-General of Police to ensure the enforcement of law and order, safeguarding the rights and safety of all individuals involved.

    Kodua stated, “The NPP has with great concern taken notice of the violent conducts of the NDC thugs as some the constituencies collation centres ie Damongo, Ablekuma North, Techiman South, Aowin, Obuasi East, Nsawam Adoagyiri, Fanteakwa North, Ahafo Ano North, Ahafo Ano South West, Akwatia, Trobu and Tema Central.

    “Indeed, data that made our flagbearer to concede this morning shows clearly that the NPP has won the constituencies I have mentioned but the NDC knowing very well that they lost these seats to the NPP are unwilling to accept their fate and are desperately seeking to compel the EC to do their bidding.

    “We vehemently condemn these attacks are serving notice that we shall resist every attempt to temper with the result of the parliamentary elections in these constituencies. I call on the IGP…Mr IGP we believe you have seen what is happening at the various collation centres and as a political party the NPP we are calling on you to maintain law and order at the various collation centres.

    “We must ensure that the rights and safety of all our citizens are protected. We must not allow illegal looting and intimidation of our citizens, and I call on the leadership of the NDC to call its supporters to order and condemn these unnecessary acts of violence.”

  • There’s nothing I can do; physically I can’t explain – Rev Kusi Boateng on NPP’s defeat

    There’s nothing I can do; physically I can’t explain – Rev Kusi Boateng on NPP’s defeat

    Founder of Power Chapel Worldwide, Rev Kusi Boateng who prophesied a victory for Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has said that physically he cannot explain the outcome of the elections.

    This follows the overwhelming victory of the presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Dramani Mahama.

    Delivering a sermon on Sunday, December 8, he said “The same way, God has been speaking to me over the years, he spoke to me but the opposite occurred. The Bible says let God be true and let all men be liars. I saw right, I heard right but the opposite has occurred. There is nothing I can do.

    It is very interesting that in our walk with God, there are times that you feel you know him so much but you have come to a place and he always starts and redefines himself to you. Personally I think that physically it is difficult to explain because the same way I have been hearing God speak was the same way I heard him speak.”

    Although the Electoral Commission has not yet announced the official results, NPP presidential candidate Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has admitted defeat and congratulated John Dramani Mahama of the NDC.

    Dr. Bawumia pledged to work closely with Mr. Mahama during the transition period and assured that the NPP would play a constructive role in opposition.

    In a national address on Sunday, December 8, he said, “We will hold the next government accountable, but we won’t be disruptive. We’ll reorganize and come back stronger.”

    He also congratulated the NDC on their victory in the parliamentary elections.

    The said “Let me say the data indicate former president Mahama has won the presidential election decisively.

    “The NDC has also won the parliamentary elections even though we await the final collation of seats.

    “I just called HE John Mahama to congratulate you.”

    He said he assured Mr Mahama of full support in the transition process so that the government business would continue seamlessly.”

    Let me warn you, we won’t take any attempt to alter parliamentary elections – NPP

    General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Frimpong Kodua, has cautioned against any efforts to alter with the parliamentary election results.

    Speaking at a press conference on Sunday evening, he urged the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, to ensure peace and security at collation centers nationwide.

    Justin Kodua also accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) of causing disturbances at collation centers in areas where he claimed the NPP had clearly emerged victorious.

    “Indeed, data that made our flag bearer concede this morning shows clearly that the NPP has won the constituencies I’ve mentioned. But the NDC, knowing very well that they have lost these seats to the NPP, are unwilling to accept their fate and are desperately seeking to compel the EC to do their bidding,” he stated.

    The NPP General Secretary condemned the acts of violence attributed to NDC supporters and stressed that his party would not tolerate any attempts to tamper with the election results.

    “We vehemently condemn these attacks and are serving notice that we shall resist every attempt to temper the results of the parliamentary elections in these constituencies,” he warned.

    Calling on the IGP to act swiftly, Mr Kodua reminded him of his promise to ensure free, fair, and transparent elections.

    “Mr. IGP, you made a promise to political parties on two different occasions when we met you at your office, and your words were unambiguous—that you’ll see to it that we have free, fair, and transparent elections,” he said.

    He called on the IGP to ensure the safety of citizens at collation centres and to stop any attempts to intimidate people unlawfully.

    Mr. Kodua also asked the NDC leadership to control their supporters and publicly speak out against the violent incidents.

  • Provisional constituency results so far

    Provisional constituency results so far

    Provisional results from Ghana’s 2024 general elections are streaming in from all 276 constituencies, with early figures highlighting competitive outcomes across key battlegrounds.

    The two main contenders — the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) — are showing strong performances at both the presidential and parliamentary levels. Other parties in the race, however, are trailing significantly behind the NPP and NDC.

    Some constituencies have drawn national attention due to their potential to influence the overall outcome of the elections, sparking keen interest from political analysts and the electorate.

    Over 18 million voters were expected to cast their ballots at 40,648 polling stations across the country in this highly anticipated election. A total of 12 candidates contested the presidency, while 801 individuals, including 118 women, vied for parliamentary seats.

    While sorting and counting of ballots are still ongoing in certain constituencies, the early results are beginning to shape the national outlook.

  • Parliamentary seats won by NDC so far

    Parliamentary seats won by NDC so far

    Early results from the 2024 elections indicate that the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) is on track to secure a majority of the parliamentary seats.

    Figures from key constituencies show competitive outcomes between the NDC and the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), with both parties posting strong performances at the presidential and parliamentary levels. However, emerging data suggests the NDC is gaining the upper hand in parliamentary contests across the country.

    While the NDC and NPP remain the dominant forces, other political parties are trailing far behind, securing only a fraction of the votes.

  • Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang makes history as Ghana’s first-ever female Vice President

    Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang makes history as Ghana’s first-ever female Vice President

    Ghana has made history with the election of Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang as the first female Vice President-elect, marking a new chapter in the country’s democratic journey.

    The National Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate will serve alongside President-elect John Dramani Mahama after the party’s victory in the 2024 general elections.

    This groundbreaking achievement has sparked widespread celebration, symbolizing significant progress for women in politics and providing a source of inspiration for young women and girls, both in Ghana and across Africa.

    Born on November 22, 1951, in Cape Coast, Prof. Opoku-Agyemang’s remarkable career spans education, leadership, and public service. She holds a Bachelor’s in English and a Diploma in Education from the University of Cape Coast, alongside a Master’s and Doctorate in English Literature from York University in Canada.

    In 2008, she made history by becoming the first woman to lead a public university in Ghana when she was appointed Vice Chancellor of the University of Cape Coast. Her tenure was marked by transformative reforms, enhancing infrastructure, academic standards, and gender equality.

    Prof. Opoku-Agyemang entered politics in 2013 when she was appointed as Ghana’s Minister for Education under President Mahama’s administration.

    She led initiatives that significantly improved the educational landscape, such as the abolition of schools under trees, the construction of new classrooms, and the provision of free textbooks and uniforms for students.

    In 2020, she became the NDC’s vice-presidential candidate, making history as the first woman to be nominated for the position by a major political party in Ghana. Her selection signaled the NDC’s commitment to gender inclusivity and equal representation.

    Prof. Opoku-Agyemang’s election represents a significant milestone for Ghana’s political landscape. With her expertise in education and public service, she is well-positioned to advocate for policies focused on education reform, gender equality, and youth empowerment.

    Her success also sends a powerful message to the rest of Africa, where women are often underrepresented in political leadership. Her rise to the role of Vice President-elect shows that African democracies can break barriers and empower women to lead at the highest levels.

    When her victory was announced, jubilant crowds gathered across Ghana to celebrate the historic achievement. In Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi, and other cities, supporters waved flags and sang songs of pride and victory. Prof. Opoku-Agyemang’s win is not just a political victory but a triumph for gender equality and women’s leadership in the nation.

    As Ghana prepares for the transition of power, Prof. Opoku-Agyemang’s leadership will play a key role in ensuring a smooth process and advancing the NDC’s vision for the country. Her commitment to education and gender equality will guide her actions as Vice President, and she is set to leave an indelible mark on Ghana’s development.

    Her election serves as a beacon of hope for young women across the nation and continent, showing that with hard work, perseverance, and opportunity, women can achieve the highest positions of leadership.

    With John Dramani Mahama and Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang at the helm, Ghana is poised for a future of progress, equality, and unity. Their leadership marks the beginning of an inspiring new chapter for the country.

  • No results have been received at the National Collation Centre – EC

    No results have been received at the National Collation Centre – EC

    The Electoral Commission (EC) has clarified that it has not yet received the official results for both the presidential and parliamentary elections in the just ended 2024 general elections from all sixteen (16) regions.

    In a press briefing on Sunday, the Director of Electoral Services at the EC, Dr Bannor Bio, explained that the results currently circulating are from the regional collation centres and have not yet been finalized at the National Collation Centre.

    He emphasized that the EC has not made any statements regarding the current standing of candidates, as the official results are still pending.

    The EC reassured the public that it will provide an update once the final results are received and verified.

    “Once received the results are also collated in the pool view of the party agents who are here with us and a copy given to each agent present. The results from the National Collation Centre are also posted at the National Collation Centre. Once this is done the returning officer for the presidential election in the person of the Chairperson of the EC declares the winner of the presidential election.

    “For the information for the general public as we speak no results have been received at the National Collation Centre from the regions. Our feedback from the field is that the results are trickling in to the regional collation centre hence our inability to publish these results at the National Collation Centre,” he added.

  • Leave centres for collation to take place – EC to NPP, NDC supporters

    Leave centres for collation to take place – EC to NPP, NDC supporters

    The Electoral Commission (EC) has called for the immediate withdrawal of supporters of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and National Democratic Congress (NDC) from various collation centres nationwide.

    Deputy Chairman of operations, Samuel Tettey, made the call in a press briefing today, Sunday.

    Hours after voting ended in the December 7 general elections, the collation of results has been delayed in several constituencies across the country, with widespread reports of chaos and logistical challenges.

    Despite polls officially closing at 5:00 PM, the Electoral Commission (EC) has yet to declare a single certified result, heightening anxiety among voters. Earlier, the EC announced that the collation process for both presidential and parliamentary results had commenced in all 276 constituency collation centres. However, the situation on the ground suggests otherwise.

    The delays are primarily due to disagreements over ballot transportation and confusion at collation centres. Party supporters have been forcing their way into restricted areas, disrupting the smooth flow of the collation process.

    The two major political parties have urged their supporters to converge at the collation centres to protect the ballots, Electoral Commission (EC) officials, and security personnel.

    The EC has repeatedly emphasized that access to collation centres is limited to accredited individuals, yet enforcement remains inconsistent in some constituencies.

    In certain areas, presiding officers have arrived with polling station results but are stuck in long queues awaiting validation. Reports indicate a slow pace, particularly in constituencies with large numbers of polling stations.

    The National Peace Council (NPC), together with the West Africa Network for Peacebuilding (WANEP) and other partners in the Election Situation Room, has urged political parties to withdraw their supporters from the election collation centres to ensure the smooth conduct of the collation process.

    The ongoing delays have sparked frustration among citizens who are eager for clarity on the election outcome. The EC has yet to provide a timeline for the completion of the collation process but has urged political parties and their supporters to remain patient and maintain order.

  • Call on supporters to move to collation centres means NDC is losing – NPP

    Call on supporters to move to collation centres means NDC is losing – NPP

    The Spokesperson for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, has claimed that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is losing the 2024 general election.

    His remarks came shortly after the NDC held a press conference urging its supporters to head to collation centres nationwide, advising them to remain vigilant and calm while avoiding premature celebrations.

    Aboagye argued that the election results have already been determined at the polling stations, and each party has evidence of the outcome. “Every political party has copies of the pink sheet, they know it, they know very well they are losing this election and that is why they will call for havoc,” he stated.

    Expressing confidence in the NPP’s victory, he dismissed allegations that the ruling party intended to rig the election. Drawing an analogy to the biblical story of two women who brought a dispute before King Solomon, Aboagye accused the NDC of acting out of desperation.

    “That is exactly what the NDC are doing. They know they’ve lost, they know they are nowhere near victory in this election, and that is why they will irresponsibly call on their supporters to move towards the collation centres to disrupt the collation process,” he lamented.

    He further questioned the NDC’s motives, challenging the logic behind their instructions if they believed they had won the election. “Why would any political party that is very, very clear in its mind that it has won this election want to disrupt these electoral processes? We will not allow that,” Aboagye emphasized.

    In response to the NDC’s call for supporters to assist in monitoring the collation process, Aboagye encouraged NPP supporters to do the same. He urged them to support law enforcement in protecting the Electoral Commission’s operations.

    We’re close to victory; stay alert and stay strong! – NPP to party agents

    The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Kodua Frimpong, has expressed optimism about the party’s chances in the just ended elections.

    During a press briefing with party agents, he encouraged them to stay vigilant and focused on their responsibilities as the election unfolds.

    While confident about the NPP’s prospects, Frimpong emphasized that the party’s work is not complete until all votes are counted and the official results are announced.

    He also reminded party agents of their crucial role in ensuring the election process remains transparent, urging them to monitor the proceedings closely.

    “Our confidence in victory is high, but we cannot afford to relax. The real work is ensuring that the votes are protected, counted, and declared accurately. I urge all our party agents to remain vigilant and proactive until the process is fully concluded,” he stated.

    The General Secretary also expressed concern over the lower-than-anticipated voter turnout in certain areas, urging Ghanaians to play an active role in shaping the nation’s future.

    He called on all eligible voters to ensure they cast their ballots before polling ends, emphasizing that each vote is crucial to achieving a fair and democratic result.

  • NPP, NDC clash over ballot paper shortage in Yendi

    NPP, NDC clash over ballot paper shortage in Yendi

    Yendi is grappling with a ballot paper shortage, causing unrest among political parties.

    According to reports, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has alleged that some ballot papers went missing after being collected from the Electoral Commission (EC) and transported through regional and constituency channels.

    NDC officials claimed that the number of ballots received in Yendi did not align with the figures they were provided at the national level, suggesting a possible discrepancy in the distribution process.

    They explained that upon the materials’ arrival, they discovered a shortage of ballots, sparking discussions that eventually led to a resolution.

    The New Patriotic Party (NPP) also expressed concerns. A representative pointed out that the figures they were given differed from the actual number of ballots delivered, calling the situation confusing.

    In response, an Electoral Commission (EC) Director, speaking to Saharan, confirmed the issue and speculated that the shortage could have been caused by a mix-up during transportation.

    “The materials came sealed and intact, so it’s difficult to determine where the problem lies,” he said. “We cannot rule out the possibility of a shortage, but we need to wait until all the bags are sorted before jumping to conclusions.”

    The EC director called for patience, urging all parties to refrain from making hasty conclusions and allow time for a thorough investigation.

    After a meeting lasting around an hour, the political parties agreed on a provisional solution to tackle the ballot shortage. They decided to raise the number of polling agents at each station to three.

    “Since we couldn’t locate the missing ballots, the best course of action was to add more polling agents,” explained a senior party official. “This way, we can ensure that any ballot books arriving in the bags from the national level are properly accounted for and do not end up in the ballot boxes.”

    The Ghana Police Service is said to have detained four individuals who are allegedly affiliated with the New Patriotic Party (NPP) for possessing thumb-printed ballot papers reportedly for the party’s flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, and four others.

    A video circulating on social media shows police vehicles transporting individuals to the station for questioning.

    A voice in the video was heard saying, “NPP are thieves and we have caught them. They printed plenty of ballot papers.”

    In a post on the X platform, the national communications officer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi wrote “FOUR NPP GUYS BUSTED AT ROYAL N HOTEL BY YOUTH OF POKUASE WITH CASH, BALLOT PAPERS, BVD MACHINES, A PRINTER AND OTHER ELECTORAL MATERIALS. These miscreants had in their possession thumb-printed ballot papers for Bawumia, the NPP candidate for Amasaman, Yahaya Kassim and NPP candidate for Trobu, Gloria Owusu. They have been arrested and detained at the Pokuase Police station.

    Sammy Gyamfi has therefore urged party agents and supporters to stay vigilant in order to safeguard the integrity of the electoral process and prevent any attempts at manipulation or fraud.

    “These miscreants had in their possession thumb-printed ballot papers for Bawumia, the NPP candidate for Amasaman, Yahaya Kassim and NPP candidate for Trobu, Gloria Owusu. They have been arrested and detained at the Pokuase Police station. This is not an isolated case. All NDC supporters, especially Polling agents should be EXTRA-VIGILANT”.

    The 2024 general elections are being held across 276 constituencies in Ghana, with an estimated 18.8 million voters expected to participate.

    A total of 13 candidates are vying for the presidency, with nine representing political parties and four running as independents.

    The youth, comprising 55% of the electorate, play a crucial role in the elections, with 459,291 individuals, or 4% of the total voter population, in this demographic. Men make up 48% of voters, while women represent 52%.

    The elections will be conducted across 40,976 polling stations, including 328 already used for the Special Voting held on December 2 and 5, 2024.

    As per CODEO, the largest election observer group, 801 parliamentary candidates are competing for the 276 seats. Among them, 111 are independent candidates.

  • Police deny reports of voting at NPP office in Abeka

    Police deny reports of voting at NPP office in Abeka

    The Ghana Police Service has dismissed claims of ongoing voting at the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) office in Abeka, located in the Okaikwei Central Constituency, Accra.

    Earlier reports indicated that a group of National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters gathered at the NPP’s office in reaction to these allegations, leading to a heated confrontation.

    However, in an official statement, the police clarified that no voting exercise is taking place at the NPP’s premises, stressing that the office is not one of the designated polling stations for the election.

    “The Police have taken note of media reports alleging that a group of National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters stormed the New Patriotic Party office at Abeka in the Okaikwei Central Constituency over suspicions of voting taking place at the said location.

    “Police investigations have revealed that the place is not a polling station and no voting is taking place at the said office.
    We urge the public to disregard this claim and partner the Police as we work towards avoiding misinformation and disinformation during this critical time and beyond,” part of the statement read.

    The 2024 elections have been marked by reports of missing voter names and verification issues across polling stations nationwide, leading to delays and voter frustration.

    In several locations, registered voters discovered their names were absent from the electoral register.

    One such incident occurred at the Old Library polling station in the Ledzokuku Constituency, Greater Accra Region, where confusion broke out due to the alleged omission of names.

    Reports of missing names and verification issues have surfaced across various polling stations during the ongoing 2024 elections, leading to delays and frustration among voters.

    In the Ablekuma Central Constituency, concerns about the accuracy of the voter register have been raised, despite expectations of thorough verification before the elections.

    Other areas, including Tamale Central and Wulensi, have experienced delays due to problems with biometric verification devices, temporarily halting the voting process.

    At the Faith Academy polling station in the Ledzokuku Constituency, voting has been delayed entirely due to malfunctioning biometric devices.

    These delays have created tensions among voters, some of whom are concerned they may be disenfranchised. However, polling officials have reassured voters that efforts are being made to resolve the issues as quickly as possible.





  • NPP and NDC supporters engage in heated argument at Kasoa polling station

    NPP and NDC supporters engage in heated argument at Kasoa polling station

    A heated argument broke out between supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) at a polling station in Kasoa, Awutu Senya East Constituency.

    The altercation started when NDC supporters accused Electoral Commission (EC) officials of not allowing them to complete the pink sheet—a crucial document for recording the voting results—before the voting commenced.

    The NDC supporters argued that the EC’s actions were unjust and attempted to disrupt the process, which quickly escalated into a confrontation with NPP supporters, leading to chaos at the polling station.

    This incident highlights the deep divisions between the two political parties and raises concerns about the possibility of further disruptions in the election process.

    Election officials are working to calm the situation and ensure the smooth continuation of voting.

    Photos: Bawumia casts his vote in Walewale

    The Vice President and the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential candidate for the 2024 elections, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has cast his vote in the Walewale constituency in the North East Region.

    Dr. Bawumia, who is contesting to become Ghana’s next president, exercised his franchise at his hometown polling station.

    The Walewale constituency holds deep sentimental value for the Vice President, as it is not only his place of origin but also a key political stronghold for his party.

    His presence there is seen as a boost for voter turnout, benefiting both his presidential bid and the NPP’s parliamentary candidate in the constituency.

    As the NPP’s candidate, Dr. Bawumia has campaigned on a platform of economic recovery, digital transformation, and job creation, positioning himself as the leader to steer Ghana through its current challenges.

    His voting today marks a key moment in his journey toward potentially becoming Ghana’s first Muslim president should he be elected at the end of the 2024 election cycle.

    Our future lies in the ballot, not bullets – Akufo-Addo to Ghanaians

    President Akufo-Addo has appealed to Ghanaians to preserve the nation’s cherished democratic ideals as they prepare to choose a new president and representatives for the ninth Parliament.

    Delivering a poignant speech from Jubilee House on the eve of the 2024 general elections, the President underlined the election’s importance, describing it as a crucial step in Ghana’s democratic progress and a significant chapter in the country’s history.

    “Tomorrow, Saturday, 7th December, we head to the polls to elect a new President of the Republic and members of the ninth Parliament to steer the affairs of our nation,” he said.

    Looking back on his time as President and Ghana’s democratic growth, Akufo-Addo expressed great pride in the nation’s progress. He pointed out the shift in perspectives on elections, especially among younger citizens, who now view voting as a customary yet crucial element of civic duty.

    “Democracy is not just the right to vote; it is the right to live in dignity,” the President stated, underscoring the broader significance of democratic governance. He added that Ghana’s consistent ability to hold peaceful elections has cemented its reputation as a beacon of stability on the African continent.

    Citing Thomas Jefferson, Akufo-Addo reminded the people that “eternal vigilance is the price of liberty,” stressing the importance of consistently safeguarding and fostering the nation’s democratic spirit.

    As the country gears up for the elections, the President expressed strong faith in the Electoral Commission’s capacity to ensure a fair and trustworthy process. He commended the institution as a fundamental pillar of Ghana’s democracy and encouraged all citizens to back its efforts.

    “We have every reason to trust the Electoral Commission,” he affirmed. “It is an institution that has proven itself to be transparent, efficient, and capable of delivering free, fair, and credible elections.”

    Akufo-Addo also acknowledged the lively and dynamic atmosphere of Ghana’s campaign season, describing it as “vibrant, energetic, and full of passion.” With the campaign now concluded, he encouraged Ghanaians to take time for thoughtful reflection and be ready to cast their votes wisely.

    Recognizing the importance of security in ensuring a smooth election, the President reassured citizens that all necessary steps had been taken to uphold peace and order throughout the process.

    “The security agencies, led by the Ghana Police Service, have made the necessary deployments and preparations to ensure peace, law, and order before, during, and after the election,” he said. He called on the electorate to cooperate with security personnel and refrain from acts of violence or intimidation.

    Quoting a timeless principle, he added, “Peace is not the absence of conflict, but the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.”

    President Akufo-Addo urged citizens to take part in the election, calling it not only a civic duty but also a moral obligation.

    “Go out, cast your ballot freely for your preferred candidate, and do so in an environment of peace and dignity,” he urged. “The ballot is stronger than the bullet, and through it, we can shape the future of our beloved nation.”

     “Together, we can reaffirm Ghana’s place as a model democracy, an inspiration for Africa, and a source of pride for all her citizens. May God bless us all and continue to make Ghana great and strong.”

    Dec. 7 Polls: I am the future, Mahama is the past – Bawumia to Ghanaians

    New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has positioned himself as the leader who can drive Ghana toward a brighter future.

    He compared his vision for progress to what he described as the outdated approach of former President John Mahama.

    At the NPP’s final rally before the December 7 elections, Dr. Bawumia said the upcoming vote is a crucial moment for the country’s future.

    “This election is a clear choice between the future and the past. My opponent represents the past, and I, Dr. Bawumia, represent the future of this country,” he said, receiving resounding applause from supporters.

    Dr. Bawumia emphasised the importance of continuity in the NPP’s transformative policies, which he said were focused on innovation and long-term development.

    “So, the choice that we have on Saturday, as we go to vote, is whether we want to go forward into the future or backwards into the past. A mindset of possibilities underpins us in the NPP and the work that we have done,” he stated.

    The NPP flagbearer reiterated his party’s commitment to positioning Ghana as an advanced nation, rooted in bold reforms and progressive policies.

    “We believe that it is possible to transform this country into an advanced nation,” Dr. Bawumia added, calling on voters to support the NPP’s vision for sustained growth and prosperity.

  • NPP, NDC charge into 2024 polls with mammoth rallies in Accra

    NPP, NDC charge into 2024 polls with mammoth rallies in Accra

    The New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Ghana’s two leading political parties, staged massive rallies in Accra on Thursday, marking the conclusion of their campaigns ahead of the 2024 general elections. 

    The ruling NPP hosted its rally at the UG Sports Directorate Park near the University of Ghana Sports Stadium, while the NDC’s event took place at Zurak Park in Madina. Both venues attracted hundreds of enthusiastic supporters clad in party paraphernalia, cheering loudly for their respective flagbearers. 

    Despite police concerns over the close proximity of the two venues along the Accra-Madina stretch, the parties declined requests to relocate, prompting heightened security measures to maintain peace and order. 

    The NPP’s General Secretary, Justin Frimpong Kodua, exuded confidence in the party’s chances, declaring, “We are winning the elections, and nothing can stop it. Bawumia is the incoming president, and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) cannot stop it.” 

    Sammy Awuku, Director General of the National Lottery Authority (NLA), also urged voters to choose the ruling party, describing the elections as a pivotal decision for the country’s future. 

    https://twitter.com/Tsocialshow/status/1864745800523252021/video/1

    “The election before us is an election between hope and hopelessness. It’s a contest between the future and the past. The election before us is a destiny vote. The free SHS, job creation, and money in the pockets of the youths are number one on the ballot paper. Don’t play with your destiny; vote wisely. This election is not about a fake promise of offering you three chicks or running shifts at a nightclub, no, not at all. This election is about your future,” he stressed. 

    On the other hand, the NDC, buoyed by its supporters, expressed confidence in victory. General Secretary Fifi Fiavi Kwetey called on Ghanaians, particularly the youth, to vote for a change in leadership. 

    “December 7 is for the youth, and you have to look at the suffering, the disappointment, the loss of hope, and come out to make a statement that enough is enough and the NPP must go,” he charged. 

    NDC National Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketiah also rallied supporters to stand firm against what he referred to as the NPP’s “skirt and blouse” tactics. 

    https://twitter.com/tigpost_/status/1864742690925040025/video/1

    “We are not going to fall for the tricks of the skirt and blouse people. We are voting for President Mahama and voting for our parliamentary candidate. I am standing here and have worked with the 276 parliamentary candidates of this party across the country. I am convinced that we are returning to office with a very strong majority in Parliament,” he declared.  

    Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, who secured the top spot on the ballot paper, aims to break the eight-year political cycle and secure another term for the NPP. Meanwhile, former President John Mahama is focused on making a comeback and restoring the NDC to power.

    Don’t be swayed by NDC bribes; Free SHS is more valuable – NPP cautions

    A spokesperson for the Ashanti Heritage Platform (AHP) and former Member of Parliament for Manhyia North, Collins Owusu Amankwah, has urged Ghanaians to be vigilant as the nation prepares for the upcoming election on Saturday.

    During a press conference held in Kumasi on Tuesday, December 3, 2024, Amankwah cautioned citizens against being lured by financial incentives offered by the opposition, the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

    He stressed the importance of making responsible voting decisions to protect the future of the country’s youth, especially concerning the Free Senior High School (SHS) policy.

    “I urge all Ghanaians to be cautious. The NDC is offering money, but we must not compromise the future of our children for a mere 1,000,” Owusu Amankwaa warned.

    His statements come amid reports that the NDC is using financial promises to sway voters ahead of the 2024 elections.

    The Free SHS policy, introduced by the current administration, has been praised as a game-changer, greatly expanding access to secondary education for many students across the country.

    Owusu Amankwah, a vocal supporter of the policy, expressed strong reservations about the potential impact of an NDC victory on its future.

    “Voting for the NDC would put the Free SHS program at risk. This program has been transformative for countless Ghanaian families, and we cannot afford to lose it,” Owusu Amankwah asserted.

    He stressed that the program has provided many young Ghanaians with the opportunity to attend secondary school without the financial obstacles that previously hindered them.

    For many families, this policy has been a vital support, ensuring their children can complete their education and secure a better future.

    King Paluta sparks controversy after performing at NDC rally following ‘NPP artiste’ tag

    Ghanaian musician King Paluta has stirred online after a video of him performing at a National Democratic Congress (NDC) rally went viral.

    The video, shared on X on December 2, 2024, Paluta is captured performing for an excited crowd at an event for Jomoro MP Docas Affo-Toffey, who is also Fantana’s mother.

    During his performance, Paluta thrilled the crowd with his popular song “Apicki” and even danced alongside Fantana, adding to the excitement of the moment.

    Paluta, who has been initially tagged as an NPP artist due to his association with Dr Bawumia and Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patritic Party (NPP), who is popularly referred to as Chairman Wontumi.


    He has also performed at various New Patriotic Party (NPP) events.

    While some fans appreciate Paluta’s ability to engage with both political parties, seeing it as a smart career move, others have accused him of lacking loyalty.

    King Paluta has faced criticism for being seen at both NDC and NPP events, with some accusing him of using political affiliations for personal gain rather than sticking to one side.

    This has led to accusations of him being a “stomach musician,” focused more on opportunities than loyalty. Some fans have even called for him to be “canceled” for what they view as opportunistic behaviour.

    This decision follows a request from Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, the running mate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), during a meeting with us at the Kumasi Culture Centre, which we vehemently rejected.

    Despite our initial rejection, we have learned that the Kumasi Mayor, Hon. Samuel Pyne, has instructed the market management to proceed with the closure.

    We urge the market management to reconsider this decision, considering its detrimental effects on our businesses, especially given the current economic situation and the fact that Friday, December 6, 2024, is a holiday.

    As the Market Queen Mothers, we stand against this decision and will fiercely resist any attempt to shut down the market.

  • Speaker Bagbin recalls Parliament; sitting scheduled for Dec 16

    Speaker Bagbin recalls Parliament; sitting scheduled for Dec 16

    Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin has recalled the legislature for a sitting after previously suspending its sessions indefinitely.

    In a notice dated December 2, 2024, he announced that Parliament will reconvene on Monday, December 16, 2024, to handle pressing legislative business.

    This decision comes shortly after Bagbin rejected a request from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Caucus for an emergency recall ahead of the December 7, 2024, general elections. Responding to the request in a memo dated November 26, 2024, the Speaker stated that reconvening Parliament so close to the elections would not align with the nation’s best interests.

    He emphasised that the parliamentary calendar recognises election campaign periods as critical times when both the government and Members of Parliament engage with the public to present their manifestos and account for their stewardship.

    “Pursuant to Order 58 of the Standing Orders of the Parliament of Ghana, I, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, Speaker of Parliament, hereby give notice that the Seventh Meeting of the Fourth Session of the Eighth Parliament of the Fourth Republic shall commence on Monday, the 16th day of December 2024, at ten o’clock in the forenoon at a place to be appointed by the Speaker in due course,” the statement signed by the Speaker said.

    Speaker Alban Bagbin recently turned down a request from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Caucus to call Parliament back for an emergency sitting ahead of the December 7, 2024, general elections.

    In a memo dated November 26, 2024, Bagbin explained that recalling Parliament so close to the elections would not serve the country’s best interest. He noted that this period is set aside for election campaigns, where both the government and Members of Parliament focus on engaging with citizens, sharing their plans, and being accountable for their time in office.

    “Again, as you are aware, the parliamentary calendar acknowledges election campaign periods. This season is for the Government, Parties, and both presidential and parliamentary candidates to present their manifestos to the people and to account and justify how the mandate given them by the voters for the four-year term of office has been applied to the benefit of the people,” parts of the memo read.

    Bagbin further noted that the proposed two days (November 28 and 29) suggested by the Leader of Government Business, Alexander Kwamina Afenyo-Markin, would not be sufficient for the House to address the twenty-two urgent items on the agenda.

    “It is worth noting that, having regard to the practice and deliberations of the House, I wonder how the proposed twenty-two items could be transacted within two days.

    “The national interest would better be served if members exhibit conduct of honour, empathy, and humility in the performance of their duties. In the circumstances, I am neither inclined nor disposed to exercise my discretion in favour of your request. The request is accordingly declined,” he stated.

    In conclusion, Alban Bagbin said, “The House will resume sitting after the elections to complete all essential matters before a seamless transition to the 9th Parliament of the Fourth Republic of Ghana.”

    The Speaker’s response comes after the New Patriotic Party Caucus in Parliament appealed for an emergency recall to address pressing government business.

    OSP probes food-sharing by Lydia Alhassan during special voting

    The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has initiated an investigation into a recent incident that occurred at Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency during the special voting exercise.

    On Monday, a video making rounds online captured the New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary candidate and incumbent Member of Parliament (MP) Lydia Alhassan handing out food packs to voters during the special voting exercise.

    At the Legon Police Station, a designated special voting centre in the constituency, the MP, along with her team, distributed food to voters waiting in line.

    Reacting to the video, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate for the constituency, John Dumelo, has denounced the act.

    He described the act as both unlawful and a clear violation of the Electoral Commission’s (EC) guidelines.

    He expressed his dissatisfaction, arguing that such actions jeopardize the fairness of the election.

    Dumelo added that while he is capable of engaging in similar actions on a much larger scale, he has chosen not to, prioritizing the integrity of the process.

    “Why are you sharing food with people in the queue? Why are you doing that? Does it mean we cannot share food too? We can also share the same, but let’s respect the rules of the Electoral Commission. Don’t share anything with people in the queue who have not voted yet and you’re sharing food and we don’t even know what’s in the thing, and you’re sharing to people who have not voted yet.

    “What kind of stupidity is this? Why? Do they think we can’t do it? We can do the same and even worse. They shouldn’t even try us,” he warned.

    In a statement issued on December 2, Speaker Bagbin cited Order 58 of the Standing Orders of the Parliament of Ghana as the basis for the recall.

    The recall is aimed at addressing critical matters and ensuring a smooth transition to the ninth Parliament of the Fourth Republic following the general elections. In a prior memo to the Majority on November 26, Speaker Bagbin emphasized the importance of decorum in parliamentary proceedings and urged members to place the national interest above partisan considerations.

    Earlier, the Speaker’s decision not to recall Parliament had been supported by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) caucus, which dismissed a recall request by New Patriotic Party (NPP) MPs as unnecessary and poorly timed.

    Mr. Crentsil’s endorsement of Dr. Ato Forson, the Member of Parliament for the constituency, comes alongside strong criticism of the NPP government led by President Nana Akufo-Addo and Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. He cited unmet promises, poor economic management, and declining support for agriculture as the driving factors behind his decision.

    According to the 2016 National Best Farmer, the rising cost of living and hardships faced by his constituents under the current administration have highlighted the need for change. He expressed confidence in the NDC’s ability to address these issues and improve the lives of Ghanaians.

    In addition to endorsing Dr. Ato Forson, Mr. Crentsil praised former President John Dramani Mahama for his leadership qualities and track record, describing him as a beacon of hope for a brighter future.

    Urging his supporters and constituents to prioritize development and social welfare in the upcoming elections, Mr. Crentsil emphasized the broader impact of their votes, advocating for policies that promote economic stability and improved livelihoods.

  • Lydia Alhassan accused of distributing food packs to voters in queue

    Lydia Alhassan accused of distributing food packs to voters in queue

    A video making rounds online captures the New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary candidate and incumbent Member of Parliament (MP) Lydia Alhassan handing out food packs to voters during the special voting exercise.

    At the Legon Police Station, a designated special voting centre in the constituency, the MP, along with her team, distributed food to voters waiting in line.

    Reacting to the video, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate for the constituency, John Dumelo, has denounced the act.

    He described the act as both unlawful and a clear violation of the Electoral Commission’s (EC) guidelines.

    He expressed his dissatisfaction, arguing that such actions jeopardize the fairness of the election.

    Dumelo added that while he is capable of engaging in similar actions on a much larger scale, he has chosen not to, prioritizing the integrity of the process.

    “Why are you sharing food with people in the queue? Why are you doing that? Does it mean we cannot share food too? We can also share the same, but let’s respect the rules of the Electoral Commission. Don’t share anything with people in the queue who have not voted yet and you’re sharing food and we don’t even know what’s in the thing, and you’re sharing to people who have not voted yet.

    “What kind of stupidity is this? Why? Do they think we can’t do it? We can do the same and even worse. They shouldn’t even try us,” he warned.

  • Leakage of ballot paper must be probed – NDC, PNC

    Leakage of ballot paper must be probed – NDC, PNC

    The National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the People’s National Convention (PNC) are calling for a thorough investigation into how a single defaced ballot paper, meant for the Eastern Region, was removed from one of the printing houses contracted by the Electoral Commission (EC).

    This comes after the EC ordered the recall and reprinting of ballot papers for the Eastern and Western Regions following the detection of a leakage. The EC’s Chairperson, Jean Mensa, announced at an emergency news conference on Sunday, December 1, that the special voting exercise in these two regions has been suspended and rescheduled to Thursday, December 5.

    The Commission explained that the incident came to light after being informed by National Security that a defaced ballot paper earmarked for destruction had been improperly taken out of the Checkpoint Printing Limited Printing House. This printing house has worked with the EC since 1992.

    Although all political parties agreed with the decision to recall and reprint the affected ballot papers, both the NDC and PNC insist the matter must be thoroughly investigated to hold culprits accountable.

    The NDC’s Director of Elections, Dr. Omane Boamah, has urged security agencies, including the National Investigation Bureau (NIB), to immediately launch an investigation into the incident. Speaking to Joy News shortly after the EC’s briefing, Dr. Boamah expressed concerns about the potential implications for the credibility of the elections.

    He stated, “In this case, we were not told whether the National Security or the Police arrested an individual or group of people and whether they are in custody. We are saying that the National Security, National Investigation Bureau, the Police, and the CID must let the public know who is involved.”

    Dr. Boamah emphasized that while the EC’s decision to reprint the ballots addresses immediate concerns, it does not eliminate the risk entirely. “The situation tarnishes the credibility of the general election,” he said, calling for clarity and accountability.

    Similarly, the National Chairman of the PNC, Samson Awingobit, has stressed the need for a probe to uncover how the breach occurred and to punish those responsible. “Destroying the papers alone is not enough. A transparent election is critical to protecting the EC’s image and building confidence among Ghanaians,” he stated.

    The credibility of the upcoming election continues to face scrutiny as the EC has acknowledged three key issues with the ballot papers: a shortfall in ballot papers, errors in serialisation, and the breaking of seals on some of the documents.

  • I promise to go back to the shrine if Bawumia doesn’t win 2024 elections – Nana Agradaa

    I promise to go back to the shrine if Bawumia doesn’t win 2024 elections – Nana Agradaa

    Evangelist Dr. Patricia Asiamah, also known as Nana Agradaa and founder of the Heaven Way Church, has vowed to give up Christianity if her prophecy about Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia winning the next presidential election doesn’t happen.

    She firmly believes she heard from God and is confident in her vision of the Vice President’s victory. She asserts that any outcome contrary to this vision would imply that God is untruthful, which would be a basis for which she would consider returning to the shrine from which she came.

    “If Bawumia does not win, then it means I’m not serving the correct God and that whatever revelation I believe is fake. If that’s the case, I will go back to the shrine and serve the gods. Mark my words,” she said in a video shared on X.

    She further went on to urge all Ghanaians to vote for Dr. Bawumia, as he has already been appointed by God. On her part, whether he is voted for or not, his win is guaranteed by God.

    “It has already been destined that Dr. Bawumia will win the elections. So whether or not you vote for him, he will still win. So why not vote for him? I’m not here to do politics; I’m just trying to tell Ghanaians the vision God has given me. I believe in God and whatever He tells me to be the truth,” she said.

  • The exchange rate has been better under the NPP – Bawumia

    The exchange rate has been better under the NPP – Bawumia

    Vice President and New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has claimed that the NPP government has managed the exchange rate more effectively than the National Democratic Congress (NDC), despite facing significant global economic challenges.

    Dr. Bawumia compared the performances of the two parties, emphasizing that under the NPP government, the Ghanaian cedi has depreciated by 72% over eight years, a figure he described as lower than the NDC’s 74% depreciation during their tenure.

    “I want to talk about the exchange rate and I want them (NDC) to listen because they don’t understand. When it comes to the exchange rate, we measure the performance by the rates of depreciation. When you look at their period, the cedi depreciated by 74% without a global crisis, no Russia-Ukraine war, no COVID-19 outbreak, and no global economic recession. Under the NPP for eight years with a global economic crisis, we have depreciated the cedi by 72%, which is lower than their depreciation,” he stated.

    The Vice President argued that the NPP’s handling of the exchange rate demonstrates superior economic management compared to the NDC, particularly as the latter governed during a period of relative global stability.

    He also stressed that the performance of the exchange rate should be judged based on the rate of depreciation rather than nominal values, adding, “The NDC doesn’t understand how exchange rates are measured and managed.”

    Dr. Bawumia urged Ghanaians to consider the broader context of global economic challenges when assessing the government’s performance. He reaffirmed the NPP’s commitment to stabilizing the economy despite unprecedented global crises, touting the party’s resilience in navigating difficult economic conditions.

  • People have advised me to do drugs so that I can be wild during my performances – Safo Newman

    People have advised me to do drugs so that I can be wild during my performances – Safo Newman

    Ghanaian musician Safo Newman has revealed that some people have recommended he use illegal substances to help him feel more confident while performing on stage.

    But “Akokoa” hitmaker noted that he remains committed to his values, rejecting those suggestions.

    In the interview with Andy Dosty, Safo explained that many people struggle to accept his introverted nature, as they fail to recognise the diversity in people’s temperaments.

    “People have actually recommended that I should do some of these things [drugs] so that I will go wild [on stage]. I won’t be doing that. I don’t think I can do that,” he stated on Hitz FM during a conversation about public criticism of his calm demeanour on stage.

    Safo Newman rose to fame early this year with his song “Akokoa,” following which he has been subjected to several criticisms for his fashion sense and performance style on stage.

    Despite this, he remains focused on improving these aspects of his career while continuing to create music that entertains and sparks thought.

    In addition to “Akokoa,” Safo Newman is known for hits like “Miss Isabela,” “Sorrow Fly,” “March Past,” and “All the Way.” He is currently promoting a new song, “NPP, NDC,” which carries a message of peace.

  • Unstable power supply threatens Ghana’s electric vehicle charging future

    Unstable power supply threatens Ghana’s electric vehicle charging future

    Consultant for the Energy Commission, Dr. Godwin Kafui Ayetor, has called on the government to prioritise alternative power sources to support the country’s rollout of electric vehicles (EVs), citing challenges with Ghana’s EV charging infrastructure.

    Speaking at a public forum organised by the Public Interest and Accountability Committee (PIAC) on November 21, 2024, in Kumasi, Dr. Ayetor expressed concern over Ghana’s reliance on the national grid, emphasising its vulnerability to power fluctuations. He advocated for incentives to encourage private sector investment in renewable energy-powered charging stations to reduce dependence on the grid.

    “The current reliance on the national grid is unsustainable given the frequent power fluctuations. Incentivising the private sector to invest in renewable energy-powered charging stations will ensure a more reliable and sustainable EV infrastructure,” Dr. Ayetor stated.

    Highlighting the limited infrastructure, he noted that Ghana has only seven charging stations, all situated in Accra, leaving other regions without access and hindering the widespread adoption of EVs.

    Dr. Ayetor urged regulators and government agencies to develop a comprehensive framework for strategically placing charging stations across the country. He proposed mapping out key locations in cities like Accra to improve coordination and accessibility.

    His remarks come in the wake of concerns raised by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Energy Commission (EC) about the infrastructure needed to support Ghana’s EV rollout. These concerns were outlined during a joint event where the Market Opportunity Study on Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in Ghana was presented.

    The report analyzed Ghana’s current EV charging and battery swap infrastructure, identifying significant opportunities and challenges in advancing the EV sector.

  • You are free to burn me alive if Mahama wins December polls – NPP communicator to Ghanaians

    You are free to burn me alive if Mahama wins December polls – NPP communicator to Ghanaians

    A communication team member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Benjamin Gyewu-Appiah, has wagered his life on the outcome of the 2024 elections.

    He has demanded to be burned alive on live TV if the presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, is declared the winner of the upcoming December polls.

    Appearing as a panelist on Original TV on Wednesday, he emphasized that he was serious about the directive, stating that he would pour kerosene and set himself on fire if anyone hesitates to carry out his orders.

    According to him, he believes the winner for the upcoming is no other but the flagbearer of the party, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

    “If John Mahama wins this election, pour kerosene on me and burn me alive on live TV so Ghanaians can watch. I’m telling you this, if Mahama wins this elections, I will personally douse myself in kerosene and burn myself alive in a live coverage and I’m not joking with this”.

    “Immediately he wins, I will sit here and burn myself to death. I always fulfill my promises and I will do it. No one will see me and try to harm me over this statement because I will fulfill my words. I will not allow someone kill me but will do so myself,” he added.

    The NPP member’s comments have ignited a flurry of reactions on social media, with some warning that his words will backfire, while others have called on him to retract his statement.

    On December 7, 2024, Ghanaians will head to the polls to choose new leaders in the presidential and parliamentary elections.

    The contest is expected to be fierce one between the ruling party, NPP and opposition party, NDC.

  • Bawumia has our votes because of Free SHS policy – Market women

    Bawumia has our votes because of Free SHS policy – Market women

    Some traders at the Mallam Atta Market have committed to casting their vote for the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, in the upcoming December polls.

    They explained that nothing can sway them from casting their votes for any other political party except the ruling party.

    Justifying their reason in a viral video, they stated that the Akufo-Addo-led government has implemented a lot of beneficial initiatives.

    The market women positioned the NPP’s Free SHS program above all the other party’s achievements.

    “I will vote for Bawumia because Nana Addo has done well. Free education has paved way for my daughter to be in school. Bawumia and the NPP has tared our roads, this place doesn’t flood again when it rains. We will vote for number 1. My two children have completed school because of free SHS. I will vote for Bawumia,” they stated.

    It appears the Free SHS has become a trump card for Dr Bawumia and the NPP to win the 2024 presidential seat.

    Recently, The Independent Ghana interacted with some citizens regarding their voting choices come December 7, 2024.

    Ghanaian truck driver Asmanu Yaya expressed that he has both enjoyed and continues to benefit from the Free SHS policy, as his four children are beneficiaries.

    Two of them, he said are done with school and the others are yet to complete. Not having a formal education, Yaya says he would let the opportunity slip by his children. He will vote for a leader who has helped him lift the financial burden to see his children through school.

    “I’ve personally benefited from these policies. I have four children—two have finished school, and two are still attending. Without Free SHS, I might not have been able to afford their education. That’s why I’m voting for the NPP and Dr. Bawumia this year,” Mr Yaya indicated

    Food vendor at the Achimota station, Madam Asmawu said she has plans to vote again and for the the NPP because Free SHS has made it possible for families, regardless of their financial status, to send their children to school.

    “Free SHS has allowed both rich and poor families to send their children to school, which is a huge benefit. Despite the tough economy, this policy has made a real difference. So I have a reason to vote for them again,” Madam Asmawu stated.

    Another citizen by name Richard Osei, expressed his gratitude for the introduction of the Free SHS, Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) schools. He noted that these initiatives have improved access to education and enhanced the quality of education.

    The Free Senior High School (Free SHS) education policy in Ghana is a government initiative introduced in the 2017 September Presidential administration of Nana Akufo-Addo.

    The policy’s origination began as part of the President’s presidential campaign during Ghana’s 2016 election period, and has become an essential part of Ghana’s educational system.

    And now, despite the hardship Ghanaians are facing in the country under the NPP, several Ghanaians seem to have no choice than to give the NPP another 4 years.

  • Move forward and let go of the past – Hackman Owusu Agyeman advises ‘rude’ Alan

    Move forward and let go of the past – Hackman Owusu Agyeman advises ‘rude’ Alan

    Chairman of the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Council of Elders, Hackman Owusu Agyeman, has strongly advised Alan Kyerematen to move forward and focus on the present, following his recent comments about former President John Agyekum Kufuor’s endorsement of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as the NPP flagbearer for the 2024 elections.

    Speaking in an interview with JoyNews on Monday, Mr. Owusu Agyeman criticized Kyerematen for what he called a “rude” critique of Kufuor, stressing that the former president had played a pivotal role in Kyerematen’s political career.

    “What President Kufuor has done for Mr. Kyerematen, I don’t think he has done it for anybody in this party and I don’t think it’s Mr. Kyerematen who says 70% of President Kufuor had to do came from him. Where was he? I can tell you that as Foreign Minister he was my ambassador to Washington and one of the biggest things we did was HIPC and when we were taking that decision, the people who were there were President Kufuor, J.H Mensah, Osafo Marfo, Baros Amos and myself and Ambassador Boris Chalker of the UK and it was President Kufuor who decided that we should go for it and it yielded the results.

    “And so if you sit in Washington and say that you gave the idea, I don’t get it. When I came back from the UN, I did nothing but to work for the party. The Constitution was written in my house and our first manifesto was written in my house. So I did nothing but to work for the party.”

    https://twitter.com/Joy997FM/status/1861176574017495369

    Mr. Owusu Agyeman also addressed Kyerematen’s remark questioning what Bawumia has done, calling it a display of “impunity.” He advised Kyerematen to accept the changing dynamics of the party and move forward.

    “For example, I thought I had the capacity to be flagbearer for the party but I don’t have the capacity now because what was needed at the time is different from this digital age with AI and all. So if at that time, President Kufuor thought that Mr. Kyerematen was the person for the moment, and he moved on after 20 years and he believes that this is the time to move forward, and so it is somebody else to do but to ask what has Bawumia done is the height of impunity and it was rude,” he stated.

    The controversy stems from Kyerematen’s comments on Kufuor’s endorsement of Dr. Bawumia. Kyerematen questioned how long the former president had known Bawumia to be supporting him and highlighted his own contributions during the Kufuor administration. This sparked a debate within the NPP.

    The party I support isn’t listed on the ballot – Prof. Frimpong-Boateng

    The former Minister of Environment, Science, and Technology, Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng, has indicated that party he plans to vote for in the upcoming general elections has not been listed on the ballot paper.

    Speaking to the media Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng he noted that the situation leaves him disheartened.


    According to him, the growing divisions within the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and made it clear that, despite his longstanding connection and affection for the party, he no longer sees himself as a part of it.

    “The NPP is fragmented, disseminated, disunited, so there is no cohesion, and I really don’t feel that I am part of it because this is a party I love. I have an emotional attachment to it, from the days of my grandfather; he was the Adontenhene of Toase, and we’ve gone through a lot of things,” he stated.

    He also shared that he would soon be celebrating his jubilee anniversary, marking a milestone in public service, alongside his longtime classmate.

    “Pretty soon, I and my classmates will be celebrating a 50th-anniversary in public service, and we think we’ve done a lot. There you are, you are asked to present a report to fight environmental terrorism, and two members of my party have taken me to court,” he lamented.

  • This is why Mzbel quit working with Wontumi Media

    This is why Mzbel quit working with Wontumi Media

    Ghanaian musician Belinda Akua Amoah, widely known as Mzbel, has opened up about her decision to resign from Wontumi Media.

    Speaking in an interview on Neat FM on November 25, 2024, Mzbel explained that her departure was due to unresolved concerns about the working conditions, despite raising the issues multiple times.

    She acknowledged that while the management honored her contract and provided fair compensation, the work environment was not a good fit for her, ultimately leading to her decision to leave.

    “Working conditions at Wontumi were not favourable. I complained to management, but they couldn’t resolve it, so I had to resign. They followed every arrangement in the contract, and I was paid very well, but because the working conditions didn’t work for me, I had no choice but to send in my resignation letter,” she said.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP30FjZO1oY

    When questioned by Ola Michael about her choice to work at a media outlet linked to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) despite being a supporter of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mzbel clarified that her decision was influenced by her personal friendship with Wontumi.

    “NPP and NDC are not enemies; we are all Ghanaians. I approached Wontumi because he’s a very good friend. I was there one day, and he called to inform me about the job opportunity. He asked me to come around, and because I didn’t want to ruin our wonderful relationship, I accepted. But when things weren’t favourable, I had to send in my resignation letter,” she added.

    Background

    Mzbel captured public attention in 2023 when she officially joined Wontumi Media.

    A video of her signing the employment contract quickly went viral on social media, sparking discussions as she appeared to take subtle jabs at some figures in the industry.

  • NDC will be discontent even if Jesus chairs EC – NPP

    NDC will be discontent even if Jesus chairs EC – NPP

    Chairman of the NPP National Council of Elders, Hackman Owusu-Agyeman, has criticized the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) for its persistent habit of disputing electoral processes and results, regardless of the circumstances.

    In an interview on Joy News’ PM Express on Monday, November 26, the experienced politician warned that this behavior could potentially undermine the progress of Ghana’s democracy.

    According to him, the opposition party will express discontentment even if Jesus is made the chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC).

    “I don’t like the opposition’s posture, and they keep saying that if they don’t win, then something has happened,” the former Foreign Minister lamented.

    “Believe me, if you bring Jesus Christ from heaven to come and become the Electoral Commissioner, they will still complain.”

    The former New Juaben MP voiced concerns over the NDC’s ongoing accusations against the Electoral Commission, arguing that these claims undermine public confidence in the democratic process.

    “These complaints are not helping anybody, and these threats and what have you are not helping nobody,” he remarked.

    He connected the NDC’s confrontational approach to wider issues within Ghana’s political institutions, such as dysfunctions in Parliament.

    “This has permeated society to the extent that even at our legislative organisation, i.e., in Parliament, things are not working the way we expect them to work,” Mr Owusu-Agyeman noted.

    “They owe it to us for Parliament to work—it’s for the people; it’s not their property. It’s not the property of the Speaker; it’s the property of the people of Ghana. They must listen to us and move on.”

    Mr. Owusu-Agyeman, reflecting on his hopes for Ghana, voiced frustration over the country’s ongoing political challenges.

    “Sometimes, in my quiet moments, I feel like crying,” he admitted.

    “When I worked for the United Nations for 20 years, I left as chief, and at the expense of sounding immodest, I would have been the Director-General of the FAO. But I came back, hoping that what has been achieved elsewhere, we could do it here.”

    Recognizing the military disruptions that hindered Ghana’s political progress, Owusu-Agyeman emphasized the need to build upon the advancements made thus far.

    “We knew we would be able to make this country a great country and move forward, and Africa and the world would respect Ghana,” he said.

    Consider progress made by NPP despite hardships – NPP Chairman to voters

    Chairman of the National Council of Elders of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Hackman Owusu-Agyeman, has strongly affirmed the party’s ability to address Ghana’s ongoing economic challenges.

    The former Foreign Minister encouraged citizens to “examine their lives and vote wisely.”

    During an appearance on Joy News’ PM Express on Monday, November 26, Mr. Owusu-Agyeman acknowledged the hardships Ghanaians are enduring but conveyed optimism in Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s leadership and the party’s vision for national progress.

    “Graduating, so to speak, from Covid-19, where we are, there are a whole lot of problems,” he said, acknowledging the economic challenges that have particularly affected urban areas.

    “There are problems which they must tackle. But on the other hand, the totality of what has been done nationwide is way beyond that time when we thought we had a slogan. People must also recognize that in any human institution, there will be difficulties. It’s not always smooth sailing.”

    He emphasized the need to focus on the NPP’s broader contributions to national development, despite the current challenges.
