Theft & manipulation of human capital;
The colonialism lingering to date, wouldn't have been possible if Africans hadn't shared vast intellectual wealth & extended Ubuntu to yt interloping parasites.
Aggressive informational warfare must be waged by those of us holding the fort.
The tournament was set up for Argentina to play either Spain or Uruguay in the round of 32.
Spain topped their group, Argentina topped their group. So they avoided each other. Uruguay refused to finish second, so they avoided Argentina too and chose to go home.
Now FIFA is responsible for choosing Cabo Verde for Argentina. LOL. This thing don dey turn to mental problem o.

Dear President Mahama @JDMahama,
Appoint me as the CEO of the State Transport Company. I will provide my own KPIs for one and half years. Sack me if I don't meet them.
We can't sit aloof while appointees run this only asset in the transport sector down. Your appointee took over from someone who had run 180 buses left in 2016 without adding a single bus to that. And to cover his incompetence, introduced an alliance model that enriched NPP cronies.
At least, the alliance model under the NPP ensured buses were branded in STC colours and driven by STC trained drivers. Now your CEO, the NDC appointee sources buses from the Neoplan stations for passengers holding valid STC tickets. The buses are mostly dirty, stinking, and driven by drivers who are not just uncultured, but reckless.
In some cases, STC trained drivers just sit in the bus as passengers observing these drivers.
This is UNACCEPTABLE.
I have a model to bring back this asset to its full glory. I am open to discussions. I could use the Gonja/Builsa playing mates approach but this is a pressing issue that deserves to be treated as such.
I await your responses.
Your personal nightmare packaged in a Builsa girl.
Thank you.

A lot of Ghanaian businesses are doing very well until they meet one big client or try to expand.
Then suddenly they are asked to provide: • Company documents • VAT registration • Tax Clearance Certificate • SSNIT Clearance Certificate • Company profile • Business bank account details • Certifications
And that is when many people realize:
“Ei… I only registered a business name.”
No proper company structure. No directors. No company secretary. No shares.
Some businesses do not even have TIN numbers yet. Meanwhile the business is making money every day. This is one of the biggest mistakes many entrepreneurs make. A business can be popular and profitable but still not properly structured.
So when opportunities come: • Big contracts • Partnerships • Investors • Government work • International clients
The business struggles because legally and corporately, it is not ready. This is where corporate lawyers become very important.
Most people think lawyers are only needed when there is a court case. Good lawyers help you structure your business properly before problems even arise.
They help with things like:
Structuring the company properly For example: • Who owns what shares • Who the directors should be • Whether you need a parent company or subsidiary companies as you grow
Preparing proper company documents This includes: • Company Constitution • Incorporation documents • Statutory forms • Internal corporate documents
Ensuring compliance Lawyers help make sure the company complies with: • Registrar requirements • GRA obligations • SSNIT obligations • Annual filings and statutory requirements.
Acting as Company Secretary Many people do not know every company is expected to maintain certain records and filings.
Lawyers help manage those obligations properly so the company stays compliant.
Handling incorporation and registrations This includes: • Company incorporation • TIN registration • VAT registration guidance • Corporate filings • Post-incorporation compliance support
The truth is simple:
There is a difference between: “I sell things” and “I have a properly structured business.” One attracts small transactions.
The other attracts banks, investors, contracts, partnerships, and long-term growth. Many Ghanaian businesses are hardworking and successful, but they delay proper structuring until an opportunity is already at the door.
By then, they are rushing to fix years of neglected compliance in a few days.
Your business may be growing.
But the real question is: Is it properly structured for the next level?
I want to personally sponsor 20 young farmers who want to do dry season Tomato farming this year.
1. Your land should be cleared and ready by September.
2. Your minimum land size should be 2 acres and maximum 20 acres.
3. The support will be input based. Tractor services, fertilizer, seeds, agricultural extension services, weeds and pests control, irrigation systems and ready market for the tomatoes.
This is a personal pilot project and hopefully we can collectively cultivate over 400 acres of tomatoes this year during the dry season. Together let’s make this work. #idey4u
I have been scanning the websites of major state institutions and, so far, it appears that only the Goldbod and the Bank of Ghana have published their audited financial statements for 2025.
The reset must also touch accountability at state institutions. It’s quite remarkable that the new kid on the block, Goldbod, is publishing audited financial statements ahead of long-established institutions like ECG, GNPC, VRA and Cocobod. In the case of Cocobod, the latest publicly available financial statements are from the 2020/21 financial year 🤦🏿♂️
The World Bank has now committed over $300 million to Accra’s flood resilience across multiple phases of the Greater Accra Resilient and Integrated Development Project ( GARID) — That is Public money.
Can any politician ( NDC & NPP) point to a specific community in Accra that no longer floods as a direct result of that investment?

Legal Education 101.
Before You do any business in Ghana: Read This First!
One of the most recurrent legal problems I witness in Ghana, is due to either our trusting nature; or the informality of our business transactions
One of the biggest mistakes people make is not signing anything at all.
You go to buy land, and they tell you, “Just pay first, we will prepare the indenture later.” You give someone money for a service, and there is no written record.
You pay a deposit, and everything is based on trust and verbal promises.
That is how many people lose money; or get arrested for defrauding by false pretences.
Before anything else, understand this: if money is changing hands, something should be written and signed. Even a simple document is better than nothing. It should clearly state how much you are paying, who you are paying, and what the payment is for.
Without that, you may struggle to prove anything later.
Once you are dealing with a document, then the next step is to protect yourself before you sign.
1. Don’t rush - If someone is pushing you to sign quickly, pause. You have a right to take your time.
2. Read it. All of it. - There is no such thing as “just sign, it’s standard.” If it is important enough to sign, it is important enough to read.
3. If you don’t understand it, don’t sign it. - Ask questions. If the explanation is unclear, walk away or get someone to help you review it.
4. Check the names. - Make sure your name is correct. Make sure the other person or company is real.
5. Be clear on what you are paying for. - Especially for land. Is it full payment? A deposit? Documentation fees? Site allocation? It must be written clearly.
6. Pay attention to the money terms.
How much? When? Are there penalties for delay? Is the money refundable?
7. Look for what happens when things go wrong. Can they cancel easily? Will you lose your money? Can they change terms later?
8. Never sign a document with blank spaces. Anything left blank can be filled later. Not in your favour.
9. Take your copy immediately. Don’t leave without it. Ever.
10. When in doubt, ask for help.
A lawyer, a friend, someone who understands these things. It can save you a lot.
Shalom
Another tip.
Most young people in Ghana seem to think that the corporate interview only starts when they are asked the questions. Some may have never heard of the Waiting Game.
By the time you finish reading this thread, you should have a better understanding of the Waiting Game and the basics of emotional intelligence.
