As the world heads to #COP30, Ghana is already living the climate crisis; floods, heat, disrupted farming. My new op-ed argues Ghana can turn this moment into a green transition led by climate-smart farming, renewables & youth innovation. Let’s act now.

Earlier this year, I joined TVC News Nigeria to discuss the Democratic Republic of Congo, exploring the preconditions for a meaningful national dialogue and pathways to lasting political stability. Grateful for the opportunity to contribute.

Cover reveal: Woman at a Crossroads, Michael Chiedoziem Chukwudera’s Sophomore novel is set to drop by June 12. After the success of his debut “Loss is an Aftertaste of Memories,” this new novel invites us to the world of Ugomma, a young woman who struggles with marriage and fate
The World Cup begins tomorrow, and many will watch the matches. Soccer reminds us of something we must not forget: life is not a race to show off on our own, but a path we learn to walk together. Anyone who does not know how to pass the ball, even if they have talent, has not yet understood the game. Anyone who does not know how to live with and for others has not yet understood life. #ApostolicJourney
Many prose writers often forget that one of the secrets among many other things to writing the best prose is reading a lot of poetry. Studying the way language moves in poems, and what distinguishes one good poem from another, and diffs them from bad poems elevates your writing.
Accra Under Water, Under Siege
A city should not become unlivable because of a few hours of rain.
In this piece, I examine how flooding, poor urban planning, inadequate drainage, waste disposal, and transport challenges continue to undermine life in Accra.

The Holy Spirit challenges us today regarding our relationship with technology and the ongoing digital revolution. Technology has the power to heal, connect, educate and protect our common home; but it can also divide, exclude and generate new forms of injustice. #MagnificaHumanitas
I spoke today about Africa Day and the aspirations of people on the continent. My session starts at 9 minutes 46 secs. Hopefully, we build the Africa we want. #Agenda2063
LIVE: Africa’s Agenda 2063 places good governance and democracy at the centre of the continent’s development goals. But concerns over coups, democratic backsliding and weak institutions continue to test the AU’s aspirations for “The Africa We Want.” Tonight, we will go into these concerns.

The signal that the NITA bill is sending to the very people who are building the tech ecosystem might end up damaging the very ecosystem it intends to regulate.
How are primary school girls responsible for sexual misconduct? You kicked against sex ed in schools to make girls across the nation assertive, know about consent, bodily autonomy. Now see!
You are using Lorem Ipsum on your website, and you're trying to charge me 20k for "license"? A whole government website. Supposed ICT Authority.
Scrap the whole organisation. What a flipping joke.
In April, I discussed Sudan’s conflict on TV. A hard truth: wars persist not only because of violence, but because of selective global attention, weak accountability & normalized indifference to African suffering. African crises deserve urgency, not commemoration alone. #Sudan
There's a need to put our money where our mouth is. Every development policy of this nation must include significant input in health sectors and education sectors. All funds allocated must be used because a nation owes its citizenship that much decorum of respect!
Disturbing photos have surfaced showing health workers at the Fame Health Centre in Tatindo, a rural community in the Tatale-Sanguli District of the Northern Region, reportedly transporting a referred patient in a tricycle due to the absence of ambulance services.
The incident, reportedly not an isolated case is how staff have been forced to transfer critically ill patients to higher-level facilities.

Early today, we gathered with media representatives to officially launch the 2025 Amnesty International Global Report on Death Sentences and Executions.
The event provided a platform for meaningful discussions on the realities of prisoners on death roll and the need for abolition and advocacy for human rights and dignity for all.
Amnesty International Ghana calls on the President to commute all existing death sentences to life imprisonment. We also call on Parliament, the Attorney-General, the Judiciary, and all relevant state institutions to support and complete the legal and constitutional reforms necessary for the total abolition of the death penalty from Ghana’s laws.
The event reinforced the importance of continued advocacy and collective action in promoting justice and protecting human dignity. We remain committed to creating spaces that encourage awareness, inspire dialogue, and drive meaningful change.

Oftentimes you wonder if it's incompetence. But I think it's intentionally done to frustrate innovation so as to create a rentier economy for those at the helm of affairs. In essence, they're creating a pay-to-play schema, masquerading as a protection policy for 🇬🇭's digital age
The #NITADraftBill 2025 deserves careful public scrutiny from all stakeholders, especially young people working in technology, startups, digital entrepreneurship, cybersecurity, AI, media, and software development.
Read the draft bill yourself here: https://t.co/Y0Utt5lQUp
Then ask yourself:
⁉️Does this Bill strengthen Ghana’s digital future?
⁉️Or does it risk regulating away the very creativity and innovation we need to compete globally?
