President’s life will be endangered if he decides to fight corruption – Azure

Freelance Investigative Journalist, Manasseh Azure is of the view that the President of Ghana’s life will be in great danger if he takes up the fight against corruption seriously.

To him, corruption is deep rooted in the Ghanaian system such that any individual who takes the fight up regardless of the person’s profession will have his life endangered.

Manasseh Azure who was speaking at the  2020 Baah-Wiredu Memorial Lecture Thursday October 29, 2020 said “whoever engages in the fight against corruption takes on a very dangerous venture, whether that person is a journalist, a politician or a civil society”.

Adding that “And I must say that even if the President gets serious about fighting corruption, his life will be endangered”.

To him, the fight against corruption in Ghana will continue to suffer considering the fact that Journalists who are expected to expose the ills in society are not protected.

He also revealed that “Nana Akufo-Addo and the NPP won the 2016 election with a sustained anti-corruption campaign and the fact that the party cannot campaign on corruption says much about reality on the ground.

The NDC, on the other hand, lost the moral right to campaign on corruption back in 2016 so what is often the main rallying point for change is missing in our political campaigns”

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them. Related Posts Quoting a Scripture from Matthew, Papa Shee mentioned that no one should refer to a man as his/her spiritual father because the word speaks against it.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to. A worrying feature of their roads they say is the fact that moving from Samreboi to neighbouring villages and towns become impossible especially during the rainy season hence bringing economic activities to a standstill.
