Félicitations à la FIFA pour avoir attribué la Coupe du Monde à un pays capable de retenir pendant 7 heures un joueur qui n’a jamais fait parler de lui autrement que par ses performances sur le terrain.
Quand le meilleur buteur de l’Irak, qualifié pour le plus grand événement sportif de la planète, peut être traité comme un suspect à son arrivée, difficile de ne pas s’interroger sur l’accueil qui sera réservé à certaines sélections (Iran) et à leurs supporters.
Pendant des années, chaque aspect de l’organisation au Qatar a été scruté, commenté et critiqué. J’espère que les États-Unis feront l’objet du même niveau d’exigence et de la même couverture médiatique.
Bravo, Monsieur Infantino.
@kwesiprattjr Yes, they still retain right for consular protection abroad. They're still Ghanaians! It's surprising someone like you is asking this question.
"I can say for a fact that 80% of the repatriated Ghanaians were documented. Only 20% were undocumented. I have challenged the Home Affairs officer who alleged that only 10 out of the 300 evacuees were documented to come out with his facts. In the days to come, we will put out facts for everyone to judge. I am surprised these figures are coming from him and I'm sure he will retract his statement in the days to come"- H.E Quashie, Ghana's High Commissioner to South Africa #GhanaTonight #tv3newday
Nice try. As long as your prime minister doesn't sack him, and he remains a senior minister (national security!), Ben-Gvir *is* the (sadistic) representative of your government, and much more senior and influential than you, an ambassador.
Las imágenes del ministro israelí Ben Gvir humillando a los miembros de la flotilla internacional en apoyo a Gaza son inaceptables.
No vamos a tolerar que nadie maltrate a nuestros ciudadanos. En septiembre anuncié la prohibición de acceso al territorio nacional de este miembro del gobierno israelí. Ahora vamos a impulsar en Bruselas que estas sanciones se eleven a escala europea de manera urgente.
Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.
Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us — one of home, tradition and memory over generations.
As I announced on TV3 a while ago, the Government of Ghana is relocating Mr. Emmanuel Asamoah, the Ghanaian legally living in South Africa who came under unwarranted xenophobic attack from a fringe vigilante group.
I have spoken to Mr. Asamoah directly and he is doing well despite the incessant threats.
We are taking him out of South Africa.
I wish to also commend the Government of South Africa for their reassuring response, particularly as conveyed in the press statement issued by the Hon. Minister for Police, Prof Firoz Cachalia.
We shall continue to make the protection of Ghanaians home and abroad our utmost priority. No Ghanaian will be abandoned in harm’s way.
May Ghana 🇬🇭 South Africa 🇿🇦 relations grow stronger and better from here.
Being Arab did not save Abu Jahl from the Hellfire, and being Persian did not prevent Salman al-Farsi from reaching honor. Nor did being a former slave prevent Bilal ibn Rabah from attaining a lofty status. Faith is not measured by lineage, but by sincerity and deeds
Since the Epstein class is insulting the holy Prophet and his wife Aisha in order to hide their crimes, I decided to write this. Historians list Aisha among the first two dozen people to convert to Islam, which would have required her to be at least several years old at the start of the Prophet's mission. The overwhelming consensus among Shia scholars is that she was 18-19 when she married. This is the most frequently cited range, often calculated using the age of her older sister, Asma, who was 10 years older and died at 100 years old.
From the Lecture Halls of Legon to the Moon: Celebrating Christina Koch
I join the University of Ghana and the entire nation in celebrating NASA Astronaut Christina Koch on her historic membership of the Artemis II mission.
It is a point of immense pride to learn that Christina, the only woman on this pioneering lunar mission, was once an exchange student at our very own University of Ghana during the 1999/2000 academic year.
Her time at Legon was not just a passing visit; she truly immersed herself in our culture and heritage. By studying the History of Ghana, the History of Africa, Rural Sociology, Music, and even Twi for Beginners, she built a foundation of global citizenship right here in Accra.
Her gesture of hoisting the Ghanaian flag in outer space was a deeply touching moment for every Ghanaian. It is a testament to the fact that no matter how far one travels, even into the vastness of space, the friendships made and the lessons learned stay with you.
Christina’s journey from the classrooms of the University of Ghana to the frontiers of space exploration serves as a powerful inspiration to every young Ghanaian. It reminds us that our educational institutions continue to produce and shape global leaders who break barriers and reach for the stars.
On behalf of a proud nation, I wish Christina Koch and the entire Artemis II crew godspeed on your return journey to earth. May your success continue to inspire generations across Ghana, Africa, and the world to believe that there's no height that is insurmountable.
Congratulations, Christina.
Ghana is proud of you!
Los alto al fuego siempre son una buena noticia. Sobre todo si conducen a una paz justa y duradera. Pero el alivio momentáneo no puede hacernos olvidar el caos, la destrucción y las vidas perdidas.
El Gobierno de España no aplaudirá a quienes incendian el mundo porque se presenten con un cubo.
Lo que toca ahora: diplomacia, legalidad internacional y PAZ.
There are 17 countries in the Middle East (including Cyprus and Egypt, despite their ties to the EU and Africa respectively).
Exactly two are considered democracies. Cyprus and Israel.
In only 5 of them is homosexuality not illegal - Cyprus, Israel, Bahrain, Turkey and Jordan.
5 of these countries have the death penalty as a possible punishment for same sex acts, although only one actively uses it - Iran.
Iran allows for marriage as young as 9.
Saudi Arabia and Yemen have no fixed minimum. Iraq, Kuwait, Lebanon and Libya allow it at 15. Israel is with a group of 5 countries with a minimum age of 18.
All 17 have Christians and all 17 have Muslims.
Israel has more Muslims than Bahrain and Cyprus.
9 of them have Jews living in them, but 4 of those have less than 100 Jews each. After Israel at 7.4M the next highest is Turkey at 14,000.
Israel is the 6th smallest of the 17, yet has the 3rd highest total GDP and the second highest GDP per capita.
Israel has won the 4th highest number of Olympic medals, and has the highest number of Nobel prize winners. Combined, the other 16 countries have won 2 more (16) Nobel prizes than Israel has (14).
14 of these countries have moderate to significant distinctions in laws between men and women. Israel has high equality with some differences in marriage and divorce.
According to the 2026 World Happiness Report, Israel leads the Middle East as the 8th happiest globally. Next highest is UAE at 22nd. Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen are numbers 139-142 respectively.
And despite all of this, the Free-Palestine movement has managed to convince so many that Israel is an apartheid nation. That Israel is an evil nation. That Israel does norm”have the right to exist” / whatever that means. That Israel should be destroyed.
Stop listening to the lies and propaganda.
Look at the data.
Look at the facts.
Discover who’s who.
Do some critical thinking.
And let’s shut down the real threat, so that the world is safer for everyone.
