Super excited! I passed my thesis defense yesterday with no required changes! I’m grateful to my distinguished committee: professors Brian Ekdale, Bingbing Zhang and Jamil Marques for their invaluable support navigating this rigorous exercise. #OnwardAndUpward @UIOWA_SJMC

NASA Astronaut Christina Koch, who just completed a historic mission around the Moon, hoisted the Ghanaian flag inside the crew spacecraft in outer space in one of her previous missions.

She studied Astrophysics on an Exchange Program at the University of Ghana in 1999.

@SamKwasiBoateng @dubawaGH @Dennis_slymm She didn't study astrophysics in Ghana. Some of the photos used are inauthentic.

@jyfrimpong There's a lot of regurgitation of information than verification. That's a problem.

3 years ago, a page impersonating #Ghana Black Stars coach Otto Addo caused a stir with surprising posts about the '22 #WorldCup call up.
@nathangadugah and I did some work on that. Today that page is back up deceiving people (after Otto's sack) -@dubawaGH

The internet loved the claim that @fgfofficiel has petitioned CAF to review their 1976 AFCON game @EnMaroc. BUT IT WAS A FIGMENT OF SOMEONE'S IMAGINATION.

Tell your favorite media house that published the false info to delete.

#Ghana's top news websites had publications over the weekend claiming Achraf Hakimi had rejected the AFCON trophy/CAF Appeals Board decision. They all fell for a BOGUS FABRICATION!

Thankfully they're starting to delete those publications. - via @dubawaGH

Neither Bloomberg nor the World Bank described Free SHS as Ghana’s most significant social policy since 1957.

@KunleAdebajo's story ‘The Internet Fundraising Marathons Behind IPOB’s Armed Struggle in Nigeria,’ published by @HumAngle_ was a runner-up in the online category of 2025 #WSAIR. The story demonstrated remarkable courage.

Congratulation!

Congratulations to me for writing an entire book. 🥹😊

[Jonas Nyabor @jnyabor]

@yaron__zango @GhPoliceService @GhPoliceService HQ should be interested in where she reported the case and take disciplinary action against officers who failed to act on the complaints.

[Jonas Nyabor @jnyabor]

@wunpini_fm I did for my class. I didn't have anything fun to share but enjoyed listening to other 😄
