Honestly, Sometimes I wonder if we have our priorities in the right place.
What was wrong with the existing denominations, the GH¢1, GH¢2, GH¢5 and GH¢10 notes? If I remember correctly, the GH¢5 note has been redesigned and reintroduced more than once. How much does it actually cost to print and introduce new currency notes? And what exactly makes another change necessary?
Look around us. We have terrible roads, schools without proper infrastructure, hospitals struggling with basic facilities and beds, and an electricity supply that keeps fluctuating. These are issues that affect ordinary Ghanaians every single day.
Yet, amid all these challenges, introducing new cedi notes is something we're considering.
I honestly think we have much bigger problems that deserve our attention and resources right now. Can we get our priorities right as a country for once
@SIKAOFFICIAL1 2.6 tonnes of cocaine cleared Tema Port inside coconuts without a single hitch, only for Spanish police to catch it immediately in Valencia! When it’s time to extort legitimate importers, our port scanners work overtime, when it’s cartel cargo, everybody suddenly goes blind!
Spanish authorities have seized approximately 2,600 kilograms of cocaine concealed in a shipment of coconuts originating from Ghana’s Tema Port.
The consignment, which arrived at the Port of Valencia on August 22, 2026, was found to contain cocaine hidden in false compartments beneath wooden crates.
Two suspects, including the importer and the person responsible for unloading the shipment, have been arrested in connection with the seizure.

"Claims that I have run away from the economy to digitalisation are flawed. The world economy is now digital. You can't prosper in the current global economy without digitalisation"

Today, as part of our study tour of Japan to learn about their application of cutting-edge research to solving practical problems, I visited the world-famous Matsuo-Iwasawa Laboratory at the University of Tokyo, which focuses on deep learning and generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) with applications in areas such as healthcare, education, manufacturing and agriculture.
Our second meeting was about the application of space technology and utilization of satellite data in solving problems such as flooding, deforestation, drought stress, crop monitoring, etc. We met with Japan’s leading space technology institutions and firms including Axelspace, Hanibashi, and Cross U. I was particularly impressed by how closely universities, industry and government work together.
