I didn't realize how traumatic growing up with siblings was until I got around an only child. She was frying chicken and I stole one and started running off, she looked at me with so much confusion and said 'you don't have to run you can have some' like wf?????
$200 million sunk into a project that never delivered a single habitable home. Charges against the former minister for causing financial loss to the state, dropped.
GH¢90 million in financial loss found in the MASLOC case. Someone who ran from justice, was tried in absentia and sentenced, has come home, and now walks out acquitted.
Two cases. Significant public money gone. The state running Operation Recover All Loot has recovered nothing from either.
The message to those currently facing prosecution for causing financial loss is clear. Hold the line. Wait for the calendar. Wait for the next turnover.
The message to current and future looters is louder. Take as much as you can. Even if your party loses power, even if you are charged and sentenced, you only have to outlast one election cycle.
No deterrence. No prevention. Just a queue of cases waiting for the political weather to change.
Ghana akyi gu hɔ
Spot on, Chief. The exception proves the flaw in the logic. If foreign allegiance is a security risk or conflict of interest for the President, it’s equally a risk for the Chief of Defence Staff, IGP, Chief Justice, or Finance Minister.
You can’t claim dual allegiance compromises national interest at the very top, but then hand those same individuals the keys to key state machinery right below it.
#DevaluingCitizenship
News that the Government of Ghana has accepted proposals to amend the 1992 constitution to make persons with multiple or dual nationality eligible to hold all public offices except the President and Vice President is most interesting.
If there is no value in having persons whose nationality has not been compromised holding public office, then why exempt the presidency?
Is this a brazen devaluation of citizenship? Whose interest is the move intended to serve?
Ghana na waooo!
Japan keeps automating things I didn't even know could be automated. 🇯🇵🔥 Every time I think they've reached the limit, they prove there's another level.
