Who cares about sacrificing for Ghana?
I just finished watching the inauguration of Barack Obama, America’s 44th President, (the tall black guy with big ears and a funny name, who surprised the world by winning the American Presidency.)….and I was as always most impressed by America’s excellence and leadership and their ability to rise to every occasion.
I was however more touched [...]
Barack Obama isn’t a black man….….he is White!!!
The reality dawns on many people today that Barack Obama, an American fathered by a Kenyan could by the end of the day become the next American President.
And all over the world many openly express support for his candidature. In Africa in particular I’m disappointed at the reasons for which many people endorse him. [...]
Back from Kumasi……….
I spent last Wednesday and Thursday visiting Kumasi and its environs with my show. As part of the coverage of the 2008 elections, I am travelling across the country to offer Ghanaians all over an opportunity to speak up about the things that really matter to them. I am doing this with the hope [...]
I’m now in Jeans and a short sleeve shirt…………………………… ……………..I think I should relax some more.
On the first of July this year, my second anniversary in radio almost passed without notice. It actually took a txt from a listener congratulating me for surviving, to remind me I was two years on this job.
I thanked the listener for remembering and felt touched that it wasn’t only my programs director and my [...]
Selling Ghana Telecom – Selling our eggs
I heard of this sale of GT about three months ago when a source at the finance ministry hinted me that government was gradually finding itself in a tough spot and might resort to some “interesting” measures to salvage its economic fortunes.
At that time, cabinet was just considering the effects of the rising crude [...]
Alas, the Politicians are focusing on issues.
“Has anyone noticed that in the past one month the Politicians are beginning to tone down on rhetoric and focus on some issues that are really important to the electorate?”………That was a question one of my banker guests popped up during a commercial break on one of our banking month interviews.
I argued that we really [...]
Alan Kyeremanteng’s Resignation. Who Loses?
Sometimes when sources hint on the impending big news, it is easy for a media practitioner to take it with a pinch of salt. Sometimes, these hints sound so farfetched that you are left with a feeling that it will be false.
But when I heard a senior NPP member had tendered in his resignation letter [...]
Would John Mahama Bring any more votes?
On Thursday, the much expected announcement of John Mahama as NDC Vice Presidential candidate was made. This effectively ended the debates and lobbying for the job. Betty Mould Iddrissu and her supporters had put up a bold lobby (for something I hadn’t ever seen any man/woman openly lobby for –the veep slot). At the end [...]
Our Politicians are Failing Us
For many Ghanaians, reports of a clash between NPP and NDC supporters at the Chief Imam’s residence last week, came as a surprise against the background of promises by the candidates that the campaign would be based on issues.
For me I was surprised not at the clash of the supporters, but at the lack of [...]
