Election: (CSD-Ghana) Backs The NDC’s “Enough is Enough” Protest In Demand For A Credible Voters’Register

Image
The CSD-Ghana believes strongly that the foundation of any free and fair election is a credible register and as such, any effort towards having a credible Voters’ Register must be supported by all democracy lovers. The Electoral Commission has admitted to many errors in the Electoral Roll, as pointed out by the NDC, but has failed to allow for an independent forensic audit into the same. The EC, for example, has admitted that there were illegal vote transfers in Sagnerigu, Pusiga and Tamale South by an Electoral Commission Official in Tamale South. According to the EC, these illegal transfers went through because there was no “liveness check” mechanism in place to prevent such situations.  The NDC says the situation is widespread so there must be an audit. This is a fair and reasonable call to make, but the EC has remained intransigent. CSD-Ghana stands ready to fully participate in this protest and asks other democracy lovers to join us to mount enough pressure on the Electoral Commis

BREAKING NEWS: Appoint Stephen Ntim to replace Kennedy Agyapong - Npp Youth Appeals to President Akufo- Addo

Image
A group calling itself the Concerned New Patriotic Party (NPP) Youth has appealed to President Akufo- Addo to appoint Stephen Ntim to replace Kennedy Agyapong as Board Chairman of the Ghana National Gas Company (GNGC). According to the group, the Chairman seat of the GNGC will be vacant following Mr Agyapong’s intention to contest the NPP flagbearership position when nominations open. The Group, led by one of the party communicators, Solomon Kusi Appiah said the choice of Mr Ntim as a suitable replacement was because he wields the expertise required to occupy the position “I strongly believe that with his vast experience in several executive and corporate positions, he will be able to deliver when asked to replace Hon. Kennedy Agyapong,” Mr Kusi said. Further, the group said their choice has nothing to do with his role as NPP chairman but on the merit of his capabilities. “Let’s even move away from the fact that he is the chairman of our beloved party and focus on his prowess.

Image
  Minority Leader Haruna Iddrisu says his side is disappointed by the sudden U-turn by the Majority Caucus after their earlier threats to boycott the 2023 Budget if it is presented by the embattled Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta. According to Mr. Iddrisu, they feel betrayed. “We feel let down and we feel betrayed by the Majority Caucus who have shown no wit in supporting us with our impeachment process within the letter and spirit of Article 82 of the 1992 constitution. We are not abandoning our censorship motion. We are in it for the long haul and we will insist that the letter and spirit of article 82 are fully respected and an outcome determined by secret vote ultimately after a debate on the Committee’s report is submitted to plenary,” he said at a press conference on Wednesday. The Minority Caucus are pursuing a censure motion to dismiss Ken Ofori-Atta from office for what they say is his gross mismanagement of the country’s economy.

JUST IN: Economic hardship in Ghana has taken a toll on offerings to God. - John Mahama

Image
 Former President, John Dramani Mahama, has asserted that the current economic hardship in Ghana has taken a toll on offerings to God.  According to him, followers of Christ are unable to give huge offerings in church due to the economic hardship, which has affected the pockets of Ghanaians.  He was speaking at the 175th anniversary thanksgiving service of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in Ho.  “We must always spread Christian love, especially in this time, when money doesn’t like noise. Especially in this time when we all agree that times are hard. This is the time we must show our Christian charity by loving our neighbours as ourselves. And so whatever little you have to share, you should share with your neighbour. I mean we could tell the hardship in the system from the appeal for funds.

Image
Abdul Malik Kweku Baako and Charles Nii Teiko Tagoe Abdul Malik Kweku Baako, the Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide newspaper, has stated that Charles Nii Teiko Tagoe, Executive Assistant & Head of Social Media, Office of the President, is part of the country's problem and not the solution.

Polls on current economic crisis biased – NPP Communications Director

Image
  The New Patriotic Party Communications Director, Richard Ahiagbah, has downplayed the growing discontent with the Akufo-Addo government, which has been reflected in polls and recent protests. Speaking on The Point of View, Mr. Ahiagbah maintained that Ghana’s economic crisis has external causes because “the whole world is not going in the right direction. A recent poll by Global Info Analytics has indicated that 77 percent of Ghanaians believe the country is heading in the wrong direction. This comes amid crippling inflation and fuel prices that have left many Ghanaians frustrated. But Mr. Ahiagbah remarked that “I think polling in this environment is biased, to begin with, because people’s emotions are in a certain place, so you are going to get a predictable outcome.” “What is really of consequence is the effort and the commitment of the government that is in power who for some reason is caught up in this global economic downturn,” he added.

The country’s present level of economic crisis is one bigger than a pandemic.

Image
Oliver Barker Vormawor ( Fix The Country Activist )  A convener of the #FixTheCountry movement, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, says the country’s present level of economic crisis is one bigger than a pandemic. According to him, if the challenges are not addressed with drastic measures, including medium and long-term solutions, Ghana would keep running to the doorsteps of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for support. He joined the ‘Ku Me Preko Reloaded’ demonstration on Saturday, November 5, where he noted that the problems facing the country should not be treated with “superficial tweak. “We are in a deep economic and systemic crisis, it’s bigger than the pandemic and the responses we devise to this must not only be superficial. This is about the 17th time we are back at the IMF; we cannot continue like this. “We have said this from the very beginning that the problems that we are faced with today and where we are now is as a result of a gap between the political class and those who are
