My husband and I are different in so many ways; he supports Manchester United, I support Chelsea, I love watching romantic and comedy movies, he is into Thrillers and Horrors, he loves manual cars, (which I cannot stand!) I am team automatic; he is always hot, am always cold, the list is endless.
If my mother were alive, she would have turned 100 on October 16, 2021. Mrs. Augustine Akosua Atafe Ohene, nee Asempapa, was born on October 16, 1921 in a little village near Mangoase in the then Gold Coast colony.
I’ve often wondered why in this country the persistent reports of all sorts of sexual and other assaults of children, and brutalities against the vulnerable, especially women, never seem to excite the sort of overwhelming outcry that even the merest hint of homosexual news attracts.
Ghana needs jobs. Africa needs jobs. Africa needs well-paying jobs in high numbers to satisfy the teeming youth as well as women, the disadvantaged and vulnerable groups.
The World Health Organization has announced a historic move: it has recommended the widespread use of the first ever malaria vaccine. The recommendation is based on the results of an ongoing pilot programme in Malawi, Ghana and Kenya. Malaria is a huge global health challenge, around 409,000 people died of malaria in 2019 alone.
The law students aren't dumb. But every year, we're made to believe they are, and that's why they "fail" in their numbers when they sit the entrance exams to enter the Ghana School of Law.
“Mummy can you please play tag with us?†My daughter will ask anytime we went for a walk. (Tag is a game where one person chases another to mark them out of play by touching them).
Sixteen years is a very long time. I have living proof of what 16 years looks like in my house. My favourite niece Akua of Dwaben and Abutia was born 16 years ago, she is taller than me and a fully grownup young lady.
In the past few days, the news of the interdiction of the Aburi Girls’ headmistress, Mrs Alice Prempeh-Fordjour, has led to a sober reflection for leaders.
I grew up in Tarkwa and Prestea in the Western Region and the regional capital, Takoradi, was my nearest big city with shimmering lights, wide streets, endless traffic and a vibrant night life to boot – a far cry from the two rather sleepy towns I was used to.
Teaching courses in “Critical Thinking†is one of the most inspiring and rewarding experiences I have ever had. It started with my training in the state of California (USA) to coordinate a GATE (Gifted And Talented Education) programme in a public school.
Speed is one of the determinants of success! Imagine following a leader who is slow with his decisions, slow with implementing the decision and slow with taking any action whatsoever!

Ever heard of Feminism or feminist? If you have, then these words may either stir up resentment, insouciance or leave you so buoyed up. What is feminism and why the fervid rejection or championship? How do myths surrounding feminism affect gender, culture and development?
Currency is the anchor of modern society. Bartering which started off with items like animal skins, salt, weapons, etc., gave way over time to currency, the paper and coins-based medium of exchange. The evolution of money has given birth to digital currency.
It is not often we have the opportunity to have ringside seats to witness such high-grade quarrel among top class nations. It is juicy, it is unexpected and we should all enjoy it while it lasts.
Youth is supposed to be a time of excitement, possibility and hope, a time without the worries of adulthood, when we have the freedom to plan and build for the future. Unfortunately, the youth of Ghana are being robbed of these possibilities, denied the opportunities afforded to previous generations, including my own.
Can Ghana's Parliament propose to the ECOWAS Parliament to carve out exceptions, qualifications or fill in the gap in the ECOWAS protocol without fundamentally changing the aim of the ECOWAS treaty?
The high drama surrounding the recent arrest, denial of bail and then grant of bail to the rather colourful and sometimes controversial Prophet Owusu Bempah of the Glorious Word Power Ministries International created quite a stir in the national media headlines, and rightly so, given his profile.
Professor Kwesi Yankah, a former minister, in October 2008 was so apprehensive for the security of Ghana, its citizens and emerging democracy that he rushed to The Ghanaian Times with an article: Will Ghana survive December ’08?
The story of Kwame Nkrumah is the substantive history of Africa emerging in the 20th century. Likewise, Nkrumah’s import pervades the 21st century as well; furthermore, his gallant vision for Africa leaps cautiously but brightly into the future!
