The players on the field were deficient. We should have left Chris Hughton to do the work. That defensive errors that led to the goals? The team has a good balance. We need two or more people up front and maybe some in the def...

Akufo-Addo’s achievements in 2017, 2018 as a result of Mahama’s investment – Franklin Cudjoe

Image
Franklin Cudjoe of IMANI Africa is of the view that Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s exploits in 2017, and 2018 were a result of the investments made by the John Dramani Mahama-led administration. He is of the view that the next government, which will take over from the current government, will certainly need some form of honeymoon to get things right, as Ghana’s economy is currently in shambles. Franklin Cudjoe expressed these views on social media in reaction to claims that John Dramani Mahama is not ready to be president because he told labour unions he will need some honeymoon to fix the economy. “Besides, all the things you mentioned Nana Addo did from 2017 to 2018 were mostly the results of NDC’s investments- it was no master stroke of the NPP that it inherited/achieved a 7% growth in 2017 from 3.4% in 2016.

Melanie Safka, often simply known as Melanie, was a melody weaver, a poet with a guitar, and a barefoot whirlwind who danced through the 60s and 70s, leaving behind a trail of timeless tunes and an infectious brand of sunshine-and-rain optimism. Born in Queens, New York, in 1947, Melanie’s musical roots stretched back to childhood, when she made her first radio appearance at the tender age of four. Her voice, a unique blend of childlike wonder and earthy wisdom, would become her signature, gracing songs that spoke of peace, love, and the simple joys of being alive. Her 1969 performance at Woodstock catapulted her onto the international stage. Barefoot and adorned with flowers, she captivated the crowd with the anthemic “Brand New Key” and the introspective “Lay Down (Candles in the Rain),” a song born from the festival’s downpour that transformed into a plea for unity and understanding. But Melanie was more than just a festival darling. Her music, a genre-bending mix of folk, po...

However, to properly comprehend these ramifications, it is equally important to understand how an NFT is created or “minted” and how ownership of an NFT is transferred.
