It has been a really successful Russia-Africa Summit.
In direct talks with President Vladimir Putin, President John Mahama has secured the following concrete commitments:
1) Russia has agreed to work with Ghana to establish a 2,000 megawatts nuclear power plant to guarantee energy security and anchor industrialization. This is a revival of Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah’s vision for which he commenced preparatory works but was truncated by the coup of February 28, 1966;
2) A new defence pact to acquire strategic military assets for the globally respected Ghana Armed Forces;
3) Ghana and Russia will enhance our agricultural cooperation aimed at boosting grain production and provision of fertilizers;
4) Russia will increase scholarships for Ghanaian students. Ghana now ranks second as the African nation with the most number of students;
5) Following concerns raised by President Mahama, President Putin has declared that Ghanaians are no longer allowed to participate in the war with Ukraine. This policy applies to all circumstances whether through irregular recruitments or expression of voluntary interests;
6) Ghana and Russia will revive our PJCC with Moscow ready to host in the next few weeks.
Ghana and Russia have maintained cordial and mutually beneficial formal bilateral relations since 1958.
For God and Country 🇬🇭 🙏🏾
We have paid GH¢24.8 billion to statutory funds since January 2026 to support schools, healthcare, roads and local development.
Unlike in the past, when payments were marked by delays, capping and arrears, we now release these funds on time and in full.
This ensures statutory funds have the money they need to provide the essential services required by law.
President John Dramani Mahama has appointed Dr. Abdul-Baasit Aziz-Bamba as Acting Director-General of the Value for Money Office.
Dr. Aziz-Bamba, a Harvard-trained lawyer and former Senior Lecturer at the University of Ghana School of Law, will lead efforts to strengthen scrutiny of public spending, curb waste and ensure public expenditure delivers tangible benefits to Ghanaians.

@konkrumah Securing strategic loans after the IMF programme reflects responsible fiscal action to fund critical needs, in contrast to the NPP’s reckless borrowing that crippled the economy, and government is actively strengthening revenue and prioritising spending to ease hardship.
@konkrumah Courts rule on evidence and law; Wontumi was convicted for his proven role in facilitating illegal mining, differing case outcomes stem from distinct facts, and the judiciary upholds justice rather than serving as a political weapon.
@Gen_Buhari_ The judgment rests on legally valid circumstantial evidence properly evaluated to prove the facts of the case.
Your proposed parallels to other officials and unrelated matters lack the necessary factual and legal foundation, and do not weaken this ruling.
Patriotism also involves celebrating small victories in preparation for greater achievements. Countries we consider clean began on similar paths and have since progressed. By maintaining a collective effort to clean regularly, we can eventually agree that living in a cleaner society improves our lives. Consequently, cleaning up and responsibly disposing of waste will become a habit rather than a special occasion.
We thank each and every person who contributed meaningfully to the cleanup exercise.
1.We ask the Local government authorities to improve the logistics of our waste disposal operations, ensuring effective and efficient collection, disposal and recycling of waste.
2.Additional measures should be put in place to ensure smooth collection.
3.Supervision should be improved particularly by the Assemblies.
4.If possible, a strict ban on plastics should be imposed.
5.The Local Government authorities must continue with the advocacy and training of waste management supervisors,arrange for huge dumping sites urgently and possibly charge a fee so that all individuals, Agboboya’s and garbage disposal companies have access to a suitable dumping site,
6.Train additional personnel to ensure strict compliance with waste management regulations and standards.

@DennisMiracles The refund phase was simply a verification transition, and this year every Level 100 entrant will have their fees paid directly upfront by government.
'If there was STEM at the time I was in school, maybe I would have been an engineer. I was traumatised by the way Mathematics was taught. How can you teach a child Mathematics in that manner?'
President John Dramani Mahama made the remark while stressing the importance of improving STEM education in schools.
