The HAGAN EMPEROR came from one of his trips beyond the seas. It was not particularly known what he went to do, thus giving room for all manner of speculations. While many Haganites thought Egya Atta was out to seek medication, others opined that he went on his annual leave. And we are forced to believe it because that was what his propaganda mouth-piece put across.  President John Evans Atta Mills But...

Woyomegate has exposed the inner workings of our government for all to see. And it looks ugly. Woyomegate has exposed the extremely partisan nature of our politics. And it is demoralizing. On the surface, this looks like a very simple case. A businessman goes to court to ask for justice in a case in which he believes that he is owed restitution by Ghana for breach of contract and the court agrees because... 

Fred Swaniker, an entrepreneur with a passion for solving social problems, believes that many of Africa’s predicaments boil down to a lack of adequate leadership.

Can Mills win the trust of disillusioned NDC foot soldiers? It remains a question if the Mills administration can win the trust of NDC foot-soldiers to campaign for the party as it seeks to renew its mandate in the 2012 election. With barely 11 months to the climax of the four-year mandate of the ruling National Democratic Congress, this has been the critical question many social commentators and political... 

They want to improve society through increasing the power of the state. We all want to make the world a better place, but progressives choose to do so by increasing the power of the government to enact programs and redistribute wealth from rich to poor. The Progressive Movement started in the early 1900s, progressives, then and now, want “a thorough transformation in America’s principles of government,... 

 In post-Gaddafi Libya, “I fear this looks like a civil war”, one Libyan rebel commander from Misrata told the Associated Press, in the wake of a fierce firefight between rival militia factions using heavy weapons in broad daylight in Tripoli on Tuesday. Four fighters were reportedly killed and five wounded in the clash ignited by the attempts of a Misrata-based militia to free a comrade detained... 

It is common knowledge that Ghanaian politics is heavily infested with insults, especially following the proliferation of the mass media and prevalence of the somehow unfettered exercise of the freedom of expression engendered by our 4th Republican constitutional democracy. I am guilty of it; you are guilty of it; everybody else is probably guilty of it too.  Do you remember how an opponent of President... 

Until recently, the CPP was considered as a formidable force to reckon with considering how the party was able to come out of its recent delegate’s congress that saw the election of Hon. Samia Nkrumah as the chairperson and other eight (8) national executives. Prior to that, the CPP had successfully organised ward, constituency and regional elections at all its structures. George Gyebi-Gabrah, Trobu-Amasaman... 

The on-going controversy over the huge sum of money paid by the state (through the Mills-led government) to businessman and NDC financier, Alfred Agbesi Woyome, is a clear demonstration of the criminal laxity that persists in our country to facilitate such sophisticated methods for fleecing the national coffers. It is gradually emerging that Woyome was not the person awarded the contract to warrant...
