THE unilateral decision of AMA Boss, Dr. Alfred OkoVanderpuije, to sell-off a parcel of land at the Awudome Cemetery in Accra cannot go without comment. Whatever the reasons may be, we on Today think that it is unGhanaian for portions of public cemeteries to be sold for commercial purposes. THE Ghanaian of old might not have gone to the extent of mummifying the dead or putting to death an entire... 

THE saying that frogs behind take caution when the frog in front falls into a ditch would become a cliché when an oil-producing country which has witnessed the going down of its counterpart due to mismanagement of funds from oil deposits does same. Ghana can be compared in this case, especially after we are aware of various oil-producing countries, including those in the sub-region, which are going... 

WITH the introduction of Meet-the-Press series and President Mills’ subsequent meeting with editors at beginning of the year, we thought politicians and the general public have also accepted the American dream that “Congress shall make no law… abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.” And this, we believed was enough to showcase how prepared we were as a country to safeguard the criminal...

WAS it not surprising how Ghanaians had to constantly call on both the Kufuor and Mills administrations with major statements made in Parliament before the Republic... 

AS we wrap up 2011, we close the door on a very momentous year in terms of electoral politics. With some of the elections held this year seeking to make history, in cases where they won’t make history, the elections of 2011 were certainly all interesting and a few were out-and-out fascinating. WHILE the American presidential election of 2012 which begin with the Republican primaries on January 3...
