To the youth, I need y’all to hear me. There were times in my life when I felt lost and couldn’t see beyond what was right in front of me. I know how deeply your environment and surroundings can influence the way you think, the choices you make, and what you believe is possible for your life, but they don’t have to determine who you become.
Growth is real, and it’s never too late to choose a different direction.
My responsibility is to use my voice and my platform to build, motivate, and create more opportunities for the next generation. That work didn’t start today, and it won’t stop here.
Choose your future. Choose your family. Choose growth.
I’m standing with y’all. We’re moving forward with purpose. ❤️
An all-time great World Cup match. A minnow like Cape Verde came bouncing back again and again and again to cause the reigning world champions massive issues right to the end of the 120 minutes. Something about the way some of these Cape Verde guys strike the ball by the way…
When we tragically lost eight Ghanaians in the helicopter crash, including two ministers, there were strong assurances that the fight against galamsey would be intensified. Yet beyond the initial statements, what has really changed?
If anything, the biggest change has been the decline in media coverage. When was the last time the government provided a comprehensive public update on the fight against illegal mining? One could easily assume the problem has disappeared, when in reality it has simply faded from the headlines. The next major environmental disaster will bring it back into public discussion.
The devastating floods in Accra will follow the same pattern. There will be public outrage, emergency meetings, directives, and promises of decisive action. Some short-term measures will be implemented. Then, as public attention shifts elsewhere, the urgency will fade until the next tragedy forces the issue back onto the national agenda.
This cycle of governing by crisis is one of our biggest governance challenges. We react to disasters instead of consistently managing the underlying risks. We announce interventions but rarely sustain the institutional focus, accountability, and follow-through needed to solve problems permanently.
Whether it is galamsey, flooding, power sector challenges, or road safety, the pattern is remarkably similar. The issue dominates the news after a tragedy, momentum builds briefly, then gradually dissipates before meaningful, lasting reforms are embedded.
Until we break that cycle and build institutions that focus on sustained implementation rather than episodic responses, many of the challenges Ghana has faced for decades will continue to resurface.
🚨 Meet Benjamin Asare, goalkeeper for the Ghana Black Stars.
He was unknown by many until 33 years old, but has put up dazzling performances for the Ghana national team amid the country struggling to find a competent goalkeeper.
At 33, he played a huge part in Ghana making it to the World Cup and continues to deliver outstanding performances.
Never give up! 🇬🇭
🚨 Vincent Kompany on people appreciating him: “Don't believe the hype, don't believe the drama”.
“When I arrived here at Bayern, I'd been promoted with 101 points, then relegated with 20, then won the league here – two years ago I was the worst manager and today I’m the very best”.
“If you let yourself be influenced by all that noise, you’ll end up getting worse. It’s nicer this way, but I can live with criticism. It really doesn't matter to me”.
Good Friday reminds us of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice. May this day further deepen the values of harmony, compassion and forgiveness. May brotherhood and hope guide us all.
The proven durability of Chinese cars and the recent increase in demand for them will revolutionize the automobile industry in Ghana in a way.
Car dealers better cut down their abnormal profit margins or keep the cars in garages for exhibition purposes.
If your uncle gave you Two hundred million cedis in 2005 to commence your business, say it.
If your great-grandfather was ambassador during Nkrumah’s time, say it.
If your grandfather was chief Director of Ministry of Finance during PNDC era, say it.
If you were a beneficiary of a Tesano house under a will, where your factory started, say it.
If your grandmother had shops at Kantamanto reason you own one at 25, say it.
If your dad was an Army General, his guide and support partly reason you are a Major at 27, say it.
When you have the microphone to speak about your success to a gathering, don’t hide the crucial details.
Partial disclosure distorts the path and fakes the story.
These are privileges open to a very few.
You’re not to be blamed for having a privilege.
But also don’t fail to disclose that watershed moment.
Don’t let people question their journey and efforts by making them believe you both started the race from the same spot, or that you were even worse.
This Dembélé Ballon d’Or is an inspiration for many. He left Barcelona as a winger who often lacked elite level decision-making & consistent application. Yamal effectively took his place at Barca & Dembouz looked like one of football’s lost talents.
And then a position change to play false 9. He fills the void left by the great Mbappé and he learns elite decision-making in central areas (when to pass, when to dribble & when to shoot), his pressing becomes intense and he uses his dribbling & ball-striking talent to become a Champions League knockout match-winner and end PSG’s long CL wait.
Never give up.
