The testimonies that follow #SITG2026 will be undeniable. When we stand in the gap, we stand for breakthrough. 🔥
Pastor @jamesallotey_’s powerful ministration stirred our faith and ignited hearts for revival. We keep praying, we keep pressing, and we continue pushing!
Respectfully, some Ghanaian frag heads dey funny me waa.
You Ernest Opoku Mintah, the spiciest thing you ever smell be prekese or akokɔ-mesa* but you say you dey smell a hint of Bergamot. Where you go smell am for?
“A hint of ambergris” after you chop Hausa koko?
There's no single benefit of being a part of the Ghana bar association. You pay for CLEs, you pay for Conferences, you pay for everything else. Well at least you get end of year party. They said they were paying staff at the secretariat. Go and ask the staff how much they take.
I always thought @NoahAdamtey was the better choice between the two candidates for the YLF, but here’s my theory on JB’s defeat.
Back in the day, the law was the preserve of the privileged in society. The rich and powerful had an easier path, while the underprivileged had to grind their way through. Everything about that campaign felt elitist, or at least attempted to project that image.
The problem with those optics is that the average young lawyer today has more to worry about than the bougie pleasures of life. While young lawyers have been underpaid and underappreciated for ages, many could previously survive on family wealth and connections until they attained senior status and began to reap the rewards of their labour.
Today’s young lawyers aren’t just hungry. They’re harassed, stressed, and often angry. Angry at the cruel system we have created at the Bar.
When I saw that Mövenpick Hotel policy launch, I immediately noticed the misalignment between the campaign’s philosophy and the realities of today’s young lawyer. “Settings” attract a particular demographic, but when you purport to represent a diverse constituency, your approach ought to be balanced.
I think the candidate himself is a perfect gentleman. I also think he enjoyed considerable support in this race, but a few members of his team may have cost him more than they realise.
These are probably just the ramblings of an unapologetic centre-left political thinker, but if they’re not, then we leave with a few lessons:
1. Fear delegates.
2. The only thing more important than fearing delegates is knowing delegates.
3. The days of partisanship at the Bar are numbered.
I think everyone involved in this election deserves tremendous commendation. I wish Noah and his team the very best. They’ll need all the support we can muster.
