Women by nature sometimes take sides prematurely,it’s not “unfortunate for you to disagree with them on this one as ladies”it’s because this is something you’ve grew out of. Literally it’s normal but when it’s the other,then you will side with them even when it’s not logical.
Unfortunately I have to disagree with the ladies on this one. When my parents married, they were living in an apartment. Relocated to the states and stayed with family before getting their own apartment and finally bought their first home years later. Life is all about time. If you have the means to buy land and build a house in Ghana wonderful, but it shouldn’t be the main requirement for marriage.
What’s the core mandate of @USEmbassyGhana ?Sometimes our hatred towards particular groups makes us blind to even forget about where to channel complaints to…SMH.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to bring to the attention of the United States Embassy in Ghana @USEmbassyGhana a serious security and rule-of-law concern currently unfolding in Ghana.
A video currently in the public domain clearly captures a Muslim cleric calling on Muslims to kill anyone who dares to speak against the Prophet Muhammad. The video is publicly available and can be provided for your attention and verification.
My concern is not about Islam or Muslims. Ghana is a religiously diverse country, and every citizen has the right to practise his or her religion. My concern is the apparent call for violence against people because of their speech or views, and the failure of the relevant Ghanaian security authorities to take what I consider to be prompt action despite the video being publicly accessible.
I am therefore concerned about the implications this development may have for public safety, freedom of expression, religious tolerance and the rule of law.
I respectfully urge the Embassy to take note of this development and, within the limits of its diplomatic mandate, encourage the appropriate Ghanaian authorities to investigate the matter promptly, impartially and transparently.
If Ghana is committed to the principles of democracy, freedom of expression and equal protection under the law, then those principles must apply regardless of the religious identity, position or influence of the individual involved.
I am prepared to provide the publicly available video and any additional information in my possession to the appropriate authorities.
Respectfully,
Kofi Nunoo-Mensah
Thought you were one to actually not weaponize such statement after the apology,Islam has never meant “peace” in the first place.I will not support such incitements but we can do better than calling on agencies to pick up such revered leader which can decrease Islamic knowledge.
No one may appoint himself executioner in the name of a faith whose very name means peace. This reckless incitement insults Ghana’s Muslim community and threatens our national security.
Ghana’s religious harmony is too precious to be endangered by one man’s dangerous ignorance. Islam means peace, let no one be deceived otherwise.
Ghana police should please do the needful.
@israelamoah95@Hajjyass70@GhPoliceService What you saw in Quran 2:190-192 is about the early Muslims who were told to fight those who were expelling them while there was restricting order not to transgress their limits.They should cease when they are not fighting them for Allah is all forgiving and merciful. Comprehend!
@israelamoah95@Hajjyass70@GhPoliceService So when Jesus in Matthew 10:34-36 said that do not suppose he came to bring peace to the earth,but a sword.Does that mean what he said in Matthew 5-9,26:52,Mark 9:50 is contradictory?This was in a context,same measurement must be applied when you come across verses in the Quran.
I’ve never been a fan of you, not because I dislike you but because you’re stupid. Do you think you can stop a Muslim from becoming president if it’s ordained by God? These way I get irritated when political leaders I toiled for entertain you. Yesterday’s FOOL is still a FOOL.
I’m a Muslim who openly campaigned against Dr Bawumia, who’s also my maternal uncle. I didn’t campaign or vote for President Mahama because he’s a Christian but for his competence. Since when does a person’s religion determine competence?
America hated and misled the world against Islam more than you do, but today Muslims are not only in Congress but occupy powerful positions.
A Muslim will become President of Ghana someday soon. I pray death doesn’t visit you before the time.
Thanks @Asante_nation for your concern.What I want you to understand is that,the teaching of Islam is different from the teaching of Arabic,don’t get it twisted.When I learn Asante Twi in school,it doesn’t automatically makes me an Asante..This should not be religiously related.
As a country, I am still trying to understand why it has suddenly become necessary for our young children to learn Chinese and Arabic languages at the basic school level.
My question is simple: why these languages, and why now?
Before introducing more foreign languages into our educational system, shouldn’t we first focus on preserving and strengthening our own indigenous languages? Across Ghana, many of our local languages and dialects are gradually disappearing. Some are no longer being spoken by the younger generation, while others are slowly fading from our schools, homes and communities. Instead of investing our limited educational resources into safeguarding these languages, we seem to be shifting our attention elsewhere.
With particular reference to Arabic, I believe the state owes Ghanaians a clear explanation. What national need does the introduction of Arabic at the basic school level seek to address? What measurable educational, economic, diplomatic, scientific or developmental benefits does Ghana stand to gain? Have Arabic-speaking countries made contributions to Ghana that justify making their language a priority in our basic education? If so, let those reasons be openly communicated to the Ghanaian people.
These are not questions of prejudice. They are questions of national policy and priorities. Every new subject introduced into our schools should have a clear and compelling justification that serves the interests of all Ghanaian children.
It is also important to acknowledge that Arabic is widely recognized as the liturgical language of Islam and holds deep religious significance for Muslims. Whether intended or not, introducing it into the public school curriculum may raise questions among some citizens about the role of religion in public education. Those concerns should not be dismissed; they should be addressed through open consultation and transparent policy.
If today Arabic is introduced into the curriculum, what principle would the government rely on if other religious communities later requested the inclusion of languages closely connected to their own traditions? For example, Christians could reasonably ask for Hebrew, Greek or Aramaic, given the significance of those languages to the Bible and Christian history. On what basis would one request be accepted while another is declined? These are legitimate policy questions that deserve careful consideration.
My greatest concern, however, remains our indigenous languages. Our local languages are the foundation of our identity, culture, history and traditions. They carry the wisdom of our ancestors and define who we are as a people. Once a language disappears, an irreplaceable part of our heritage disappears with it.
Rather than allowing our local languages to continue declining, I believe the Ministry of Education should devote greater attention and resources to preserving, promoting and strengthening them. Every Ghanaian child should be able to speak, read and write at least one Ghanaian language with confidence before we begin expanding the list of foreign languages in our curriculum.
I therefore call on parents, teachers, traditional leaders, educationists and all stakeholders to critically examine this proposal before it becomes firmly established in our educational system. Today it may be presented as an optional subject, but educational policies often evolve over time. That is why public participation and national dialogue are essential from the very beginning.
This is not an argument against Arabic, Chinese or any other language. It is a call for Ghana to get its priorities right. Before we devote resources to expanding foreign-language instruction, let us first rescue, preserve and promote the languages that tell our own story and define our national identity.
A nation that neglects its own languages risks losing a significant part of its heritage. Ghana must never allow that to happen.

@kobbyschram@Asante_nation “He said it is connected to Islam” You didn’t mention any other religion so here it’s Islam alone you mentioned…When I say you talking about Islam alone what makes it different?Well,again we have problem with how we comprehend statements.I’m sorry don’t deviate.
What’s written about the interview contradicts what @KiDiMusic said.Nothing about Gyakie…Yet see the comment section and you will begin to understand why we are at where we are atm as a country’s new media.🥺😤
🚨Kidi addresses relationship status and reveals his celebrity crush;
🗣️🎙️Host; So Kidi, can you tell us something about the dating rumors around you?
🗣️🎙️Kidi; [Laughs] I’m still single o. I know the boys are talking cos they see me with different ladies on stage all the time, but chale I’m still single.[Laughs]
🗣️🎙️Host; So can you tell us about your celebrity crush?
🗣️🎙️Kidi; Ey you people dey ask some questions o[Laughs] okay I’m crushing on Jackie for now but nothing concrete about it.
@kobbyschram@Asante_nation 🤩 How come you think Arabic is connected to Islam alone?Do you know that we have non-Muslims in the Gulf who’s Arabs and speaks it fluently even before Islam came into existence?As a country we have a very long way to go though if this how we perceive important national issues.
@seth_doe22 Why this weird gesture?She is spitting fact when it’s comes to the financial responsibility in the house.Its the man who is supposed to take responsibility
Yes that’s true because you are having a good and clean heart. In a jungle where there’s lack of knowledge,where do you expect the mass to preach about healthy competition to be productive?I hope this admission will inspire others.Keep been you and let’s get together 🙏🏾😊
I still don’t understand the concept of people trying to destroy what others have built…
It still baffles me.
Or maybe I’m just naive enough to believe we can all win together.
Maybe I still believe collaboration is stronger than competition,
that growth doesn’t require sabotage,
and that real power builds, it doesn’t destroy.
2.When I went the I asked about the price of @MTNGhana SIM which I was informed that it’s 100ghc,I was like😊Then proceeded in asking about @TelecelGhana SIM also which the price was lower(40ghc) but then I knew not long ago it was published that it’s 10gh.I stand to be corrected
