Most peeps are quick to talk about lack of opportunities, lack of economic access, contacts etc. while they never take the right steps to seek the things they want.
Today, you have an opportunity to create value. Take a step today, for you are born for victory.

Most male lions never live to see their tenth birthday. The ones who win a pride usually keep it for two to four years. Then a younger, bigger group of males shows up and pushes them out. And a lion who loses his land rarely dies quietly. He starves, or the rivals who replaced him kill him, or hyenas run him down.

Scarface held his ground in Kenya's Maasai Mara for close to a decade. When he died in June 2021, it was of old age, at around 14, lying in the grass.

He didn't do it alone. For a male lion, survival comes down to numbers, and Scarface had three brothers: Morani, Sikio, and Hunter. People called them the Four Musketeers. In 2012 the four of them took over the Marsh Pride, the lions the BBC had made famous years before. Four males hunting and fighting together is close to unbeatable. It let them hold a wide stretch of land along the Mara River and hold off the younger males who kept trying to take it.

The scar came from that life. He tore up his right eye in a fight over territory, and it never fully healed. It split open more than once, and vets had to treat it so it wouldn't get infected. That torn-up face made him one of the most photographed lions on earth. Guides could pick him out from across the plain.

You've probably seen the stats that get posted with his photos: 400 hyenas killed, 130 rival lions beaten, never once defeated. None of it is on record. The people who tracked him for years say those numbers are made up. He was a hard fighter, but the giant kill counts are just a story.

By the end, the brotherhood was gone. Two of his brothers had died, and the group that kept them all safe had fallen apart. Scarface spent his last months mostly alone, thin, limping on old wounds, slowly losing the ground he'd held for years.

Then he walked. In his final days he covered more than 15 miles, heading back toward the corner of the Mara where he was born. Photographers watched three young males come near him at the end. They didn't attack. They let the old lion lie down. He died there, quiet and undisturbed, in the place he started.

A wild male lion dying peacefully of old age is one of the rarest ways to go in the wild. Almost none of them get it. Scarface did.

I am watching a fascinating video of military relief operations in & around Tema Newtown, rescuing residents stranded by floodwaters. See the GAF PR attached.

The Sentuo Refinery footage is very revealing.

Ghana imports most of its refined fuel despite having domestic crude. So, naturally, Sentuo is seen as a totem of the country's industrial future.

The flooded refinery would no doubt spark more moralising about “building in waterways.”

For good reason.

6 years ago, EPA resisted the refinery site. They said the land sat in a sensitive wetland & flood-buffer system linked to Chemu Lagoon.

Tema City authorities disagreed. They insisted that Ghana must industrialise & create jobs. Sentuo land was thus rezoned.

That is the real tension of SERIOUS POLICY.

There are at least 5 levels of analysis when it comes to the intersection among waterways, flood risk & urban development. From direct obstruction to buffers to accelerants.

A city & its natural setting are both living organisms. There is no fixed hydrological or urban reality.

Yet elites continue to treat it as simple with their lazy moralising. Identify structures. Demolish them. Punish offenders. Problem solved.

In the theory of katanomics, that only answers WHAT.

The HOW is where the mess lives & where elites are too aloof to go.

Who mapped the waterway? By which flood standard? Is the wetland legally protected? Did the assembly, TDC, Lands Commission, EPA & Hydrological Authority agree on one binding map?

Sentuo was given permission because they promised to develop a drainage channelway for that whole part of Newtown. I can't see it. Can you?

Is there a group of elite Tema citizens that paid attention? Demanded permit conditions? Studied & published dissent or modifications? Mobilised civic pressure? I will save you the hassle. No.

This is katanomics in its rawest form.

It is easy to see the WHAT: free waterways.

But the real burden is in disaggregated execution: buffer widths, culvert levels, catchment maps, retention ponds, permit triggers, maintenance bonds, etc.

It is not our busy Makola mothers who work from 4am to 7pm and then rush home to cook that can mount such citizen surveillance. Only the educated Middle Class elites can. "Critical Policy Audiences" in the katanomics vocabulary.

If only they would sacrifice a few English Premier League matches.

Moralising is cheap. It makes people feel good about themselves. Digging for info, organising, thinking deep about alternatives, & then mounting civic pressure is HARD.

That is why it is seldom done. But elites in some places get it.

In Curitiba, Brazil, citizens made drainage, transport and zoning civic obsessions. They scrutinised flood maps & pushed neighbourhood drills. In Taiwan, citizen groups have forced environmental review and industrial-siting questions into public politics. Officials hold public sessions & folks video proceedings for social media.

That is the katanomic remedy: critical policy audiences.

My team and I which includes NADMO & all MMDCEs are working tirelessly to reduce flood and its impact. We’re trying, engineering works are ongoing and I’m very certain you’ve seen me several times trying to restore Ramsar sites & pull down buildings blocking water ways. Thanks.

Lionel Messi has recorded 130 perfect 10 ratings since we started collecting data.

That’s 92 more than any other player.

It’s also more than Cristiano Ronaldo (38), Neymar (33), Luis Suárez (30), and Harry Kane (26) combined.

As if those numbers weren't ridiculous enough, he's turning 39 today. 🎂🐐

La justice m’a regardé dans les yeux et m’a dit : « Si vous n’étiez pas connu, il n’y aurait jamais eu d’affaire. »

J’ai choisi de me taire pendant des années. J’ai pensé que rester digne, être patient et faire confiance à la justice permettrait que les bonnes décisions soient prises.

Aujourd’hui, une histoire qui n’est pas la mienne est racontée au détriment de ma famille, de ma vie et surtout de la vérité. J’ai parfois le sentiment d’être devenu une cible facile.

J’attends ce procès depuis le premier jour. Et je l’attends désormais avec impatience.

Enfin, je pourrai parler.
