No More Tokenism Institutionalize the Legacy of Ghana’s Economic Founding Father By Nene Kwame Larweh Osɔfo Nii Naate Atswele Agbo Nartey, prominent GaDaŋme cultural advocate, has issued a compelling national call: Ghana must move beyond symbolic gestures and permanently institutionalize the legacy of Tetteh Quarshie. According to Osɔfo Nartey, while Ghana continues to reap enormous...

The Mayor of Accra, Hon. Michael Kpakpo Allotey, and Steven Odarteifio remind us that “the child who washes his hands can dine with elders.” In speaking on the questions surrounding “Oobaakɛ” and the naming of Kotoka International Airport, they have demonstrated that wisdom is not the monopoly of age, and that no individual is an...

In the late 1980s, when Ghana was navigating economic strain and social restructuring, works such as “THE BABY’S THIEF” stood as more than theatrical entertainment.

Yet Scripture insists on a different standard: leadership is judged not by propaganda or insults, but by fruit. It is by this biblical measure that the public life of Dr. Mahamudu...

Religion and politics in Ghana have become Siamese twins joined at the altar. Prophets, pastors, and spiritual charlatans now shape public opinion more than policies do, turning divine revelation into campaign strategy and prophecy into propaganda.
