The presence of a white lady in the family photo shared by former President John Mahama on facebook sent many social media users asking questions about the identity of the lady and what she was doing in the Mahama family photo. The NDC flagbearer marked Boxing Day in style as he was captured giving out Christmas packages to countless children at Bole. He did the kind gesture with his family as his sons and daughter were seen presenting food to the young residents at Nyemagi, where his family house is located. He later visited the Chief of Bole Bolewura Kutugifeso I and elders at his palace to wish them a happy Christmas season. In the pictures, the white lady was spotted. Checks by MyNewsGh.com reveal she is the Algerian lady wife of John Mahama’s first son, Shafik Mahama and her name is Asma Mahama. Media reports in July this year suggested the pair said their vows at a private ceremony in the UAE. Videos from what appears to be the reception of the wedding ceremony show the coup...

Peace can only exist without justice in a nation of powerless citizens – John Mahama

Former President John Mahama has said justice is important for peace to prevail in any country. According to him, it is only in a country of powerless citizens that peace can exist without justice. Mr. Mahama said this when he addressed the nation after his party announced their decision to challenge the results of the just ended election which John Mahama has said was not free and fair but was rigged for his opponent, Nana Akufo-Addo. “It is only in governments where the people are powerless, and at the mercy of those who hold office, that peace—or at least what passes as peace—can exist without justice.” He said.  John Mahama said he is fighting in court for the same thing Akufo-Addo fought for in 2012, the removal of doubt and to create a system that answers questions. “Some people have asked me what I hope to gain by challenging the results of this election. Let me tell you: I want, perhaps, the very same thing that my opponent wanted when in 2012 he challenged the results...

Talks are ongoing with Government to allow fans into stadia–Asante Twum

The Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association, Henry Asante Twum, says the association is in talks with the Government to allow fans into stadiums for football matches. The Government has imposed a ban on fans going to stadia to watch Ghana Premier League matches after initially agreeing to allow 25% fans before the start of the new football season in November. This order it explains is to curb a possible second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic by playing matches behind closed doors. Asante Twum states that clubs are struggling to cope financially because gate proceeds are not coming–the primary source of revenue for some clubs. “We have engaged the sector ministry and still we are speaking with the government to allow fans into the various stadia and we hope government will accept our proposal,” he told Kessben FM. “I have been to various venues this year and the number of people I see behind the gates is overwhelming, knowing very well there’s a ban by the governme...

Aston Villa youth coach, George Boateng, has labeled Asamoah Gyan’s decision to come back and play in the Ghana Premier League a brave one. The Black Stars all-time top scorer signed for Ghana Premier League side, Legon Cities, back in November 2020 to seal a return to the league after 17-years abroad. Boateng says players in the local league aspiring to reach greater heights couldn’t have asked for a better mentor than the former Sunderland man. “I think it is a brave move,” he said at the sidelines of a donation he made at the Teshie Children’s Home in Accra. “If you are a young footballer and you want to make it in the game and you have a huge star like Gyan playing beside you, you can’t get a better way of motivation than that.  “For those who are playing, not only with him but the others in the league, it is outstanding.  “You see an ex-star who has been the country’s captain for many years, playing in the league you’re playing, you have to go by that as an inspira...

It wasn’t easy replacing my husband – Widow of Mfantseman MP on her decision to contest seat

Mfantseman Member Parliament (MP)-elect , Mrs. Ophelia Mensah Hayford has for the first time admitted that the decision to quit her job, replace her late husband and contest as the New Patriotic Party(NPP) parliamentary candidate for the area was not an easy one. The 47-year-old Police officer who was with the Interpol Unit at the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) Headquarters in Accra, resigned as a Chief Inspector to begin her political journey on October 11, 2020. Speaking on what pushed her to accept the decision to go into politics, she admitted it was not an easy one but said she had to in view of the circumstances that presented themselves. “It was not easy but I think one thing pushed me. If I recollect the passion of my late husband and his resolve to leave a legacy in Mfantseman, sacrificed his life for the area but some people felt he should be eliminated in order for his name to be buried. I could not sit aloof for this to happen. That is why I accepted to take ov...
