Image
John Jinapor, a leading member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has described the 2023 Christmas as the driest Christmas he’s ever seen in his life.

If you dive out there, you’ll not believe that it’s Christmas. He continued, “Mr Speaker, the government has borrowed its way into bankruptcy and instead of thinking of innovative ways to pluck the holes and innovative ways to deal with the situation, what they are seeking to do is impose hardship on the ordinary Ghanaians, is to impose pain on the ordinary Ghanaian.”.

He says claims of examination malpractice by John Dramani Mahama are unfounded and should not be given room in the Ghanaian discourse. Abronye DC says there is proof that Ghanaian students who got enrolled under the free SHS policy are excelling marvellously in universities abroad. He made mention of Thomas Amoani among other Ghanaian students who are raising the flag of Ghana high abroad, buttressing the point that John Dramani Mahama is just speaking to canvas votes and not facing reality. “These students he claims are cheating are some of the best at London universities.

Mahama who has nothing to lose can’t be made President – Carlos Ahenkorah warns

Image
Member of Parliament for Tema West, Hon. Carlos Ahenkorah, is of the view that giving John Dramani Mahama a second term after all these years will be detrimental to the growth of Ghana. He says that even if Ghanaians have forgotten, they should cast their minds back to John Dramani Mahama’s first term, where he mismanaged the country, indicating that such a person has nothing new or better to offer. “John Mahama has nothing to lose, and such a person cannot be made president. He has only one term and therefore will not be considerate in his decision-making, among other things. He will mess the country up because he will not be up for any form of election. However, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has a lot to prove and lose as a person. He is aware that if he wins this, he has another election and so he will make prudent decisions that will augur well for the development of Ghana,” he said.

Image
Ghanaians are concerned over their choice of camping for the Black Stars ahead of the 2023 African Cup of Nations.

#playghana agenda does not make sense – Abeiku Santana

Image
Radio personality Abeiku Santana says the #playghana agenda does not make sense. He says there must be a clear-cut strategy to promote Ghanaian songs, which should not include avoiding songs from other countries. Abeiku Santana believes that if Ghanaians are stuck to just promoting their songs, other countries can also decide to do the same, meaning that Ghanaian artistes cannot break boundaries. “If you ask me which Nigerian artiste is my favourite, I will mention the names of Ghanaian artistes any day, any time. My Ghanaian artiste comes over any other artiste and that is not to say that we should not play songs from Nigerians. I’m afraid I have to disagree with that. I like Ghanaian songs but I don’t play them out of interest. I play the music that the listeners want. So I want us to clarify that if we want to grow Ghanaian music, that doesn’t mean we should focus on only playing songs by Ghanaians 80%, 90%, or 99%. When we do that, when other countries hear this, they will...
