The concept of the calendar is man-made (not real), we only have day and night. God is not restricted/constrained by our calendar. Your time (ordained by Him) will come. Be patient, be kind, be happy regardless.

MTN or Telecel?

Ghana’s system is being linked to an API-PNR database & international crime databases. Great! However, clear communication, stakeholder engagement & adaptability aren’t optional, they’re the difference between policy success and national failures. Let’s make Ghana work again 🇬🇭

🇬🇭 Ghana’s e-Visa drops next month and it’s bigger than you think.
Starting May 25 (Africa Day), ALL African passport holders can enter Ghana for FREE. No visa fee. Just an online application & security screening through the new digital portal.

Kenya tried this in 2024. Instead of removing barriers, their Electronic Travel Authorisation CREATED new ones. And citizens from countries that already had visa-free deals with Kenya suddenly needed online permits.
The backlash forced a full policy reversal within a year.

@vxdb Fortunately Apple Pay doesn’t work in my country 😂😂

I'm researching how Ghanaians track their mobile money — MTN, Telecel, AirtelTigo.
If you use MoMo, your answers will directly shape what I build.

@pra_obeng @NomadicMaajoa @Aramex @GhanaRevenue Nope. They just care. They’re only interested in extorting money from unsuspecting clients

[Papa Gray @iampapagray]

@GhanaRevenue @NomadicMaajoa @Aramex Yes that’s exactly what I’m saying. You can go there (obviously undercover) and you will know. There are several reports on this platform and on the Google business reviews. And they only collect cash to remove traces. They have a mobile money merchant so you know no excuse.

@GhanaGOLDBOD The domain https://t.co/Nld3JkQd2v does not yet belong to you and misleading to interested citizens.... Simply switch to a .com.gh TLD to be safe. That will be way cheaper than buying a hoarded domain. Thank you

@zubaidah_x 2+ years on and this problem still exists.... why @Aramex Ghana? If you can't have a streamlined process and clear financial commitment structure for your customers, collapse the Ghana branch. Those thieving staff there don't deserve jobs.

[Papa Gray @iampapagray]

@Aramex Try and fix your Ghana branch. There is so much stealing and thievery going on there. The frustration is just too much. You need to put in the work

[Papa Gray @iampapagray]

@Aramex @Therealjacinta3 This is all you do. Even for a $50 package, you charge an arm and a leg

[Papa Gray @iampapagray]

@NomadicMaajoa @Aramex @Aramex They simply just mention whatever amount they want from you. Then ask you again for agent fees. They simply are extorting money from people at their offices. @GhanaRevenue Are you aware of this???

[Papa Gray @iampapagray]

@NomadicMaajoa @Aramex they are not just stealing packages, they are charging an arm and a leg just to pickup your package. Even when your order had free delivery attached, they still collect Ghc150 per package from you. The customs fees they quote are not documented. And they will only accept cash ctd

Hey @primevue 👋
It looks like the https://t.co/21zLwvxslu site is currently down — showing a 500: INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR with code INTERNAL_FUNCTION_INVOCATION_FAILED.
Could you please check and fix this? 🙏

x402 landscape (update)

x402 is an open payments protocol developed by Coinbase that enables AI agents to complete transactions autonomously.

It is powered by on-chain technology and digital currencies and provides a lightweight, secure, and instantaneous payment system that we hope can help accelerate the adoption of M2M payments and agentic commerce.

The x402 protocol utilizes the long-reserved HTTP 402 ”Payment Required” status code to require a payment to complete an API request or load a webpage.

If an API request lacks payment, x402 responds with an HTTP 402 Payment Required status, prompting the client to pay and retry.
