If Alexander Afenyo-Markin (NOT honorable) can speak openly like this and spew absolute garbage to politicize a case that only prosecutes an illiterate person and an offender for violating forestry and environmental laws, then it means that the NPP party aids and abets and is criminally liable for obstructing justice. In any serious country, a speech like this can be punished when it crosses into incitement of imminent lawless action. These are not leaders, I am NOT sorry to say; these are “educated illiterates” who have no interest in building our country, let alone restoring our wastelands resulting from mindless illegal mining. SHAME! 🤢
A los argentinos cuando Maradona metió un gol con la mano no les pareció sospechoso. Cuando los argentinos le dieron agua con somníferos a Brasil no les pareció raro. Cuando su dictadura robó el mundial de 1978 todo estaba bien. Los 5 penaltis en 7 partidos de Qatar tampoco les pareció sospechoso. No les pareció sospechoso robarle a Egipto o a Suiza. Pero perder una final en la que tiraron 0 veces en 120 minutos les esta pareciendo un robo y todo muy conspiranoico. Te tienes que reír 😆

Finally, Someone is Looking out For Us!
Most of us scrolled past the announcement back in February. The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) put out a statement saying certain drinks had to leave our shelves, quietly, without drama. No big press conference. No product names called out loudly. Just a directive, a deadline, and a warning.
The deadline was March 31, 2026. Some people thought it would blow over. Some traders apparently did too.
It didn't blow over.
In late April, the FDA's Market Surveillance Team, backed by the Ghana Police Service, moved through communities, town by town, they went in and came out with products. Over 2,100 of them, including Bullet Vodka Drink, Vody Vodka Mixed Drink, Cody's Vodka Energy Drink, Jojo Carbonated Vodka Mix, and Bel Ice Vodka Energy Mix Drink, to mention a few.
So, what exactly is the problem?
These beverages combine alcohol, a depressant, with stimulants like caffeine, inositol, kola nut, glucuronolactone, ginseng and guarana, to mention a few. The concern is that combining alcohol with stimulants can mask signs of intoxication, leading consumers to drink more than they should. You feel less drunk than you are. And then the real damage happens
Countries moved on this years ago. Ghana is catching up, and seriously so.
Now here is the real question: have you seen any of these products still sitting on shelves near you? More importantly, are you actively checking the ingredient list on your favourite alcoholic beverage? Because some of these ingredients do not announce themselves loudly on the label.
Some of these brands will disappear for a while, then come back reformulated, or possibly relaunch under an entirely new brand. We do not know. But hopefully without the stimulants.
For now, read the label. Then decide.
Who else caught the tribute to DR Congo fan Michel Nkuka during Justin Bieber's halftime performance at the World Cup final? 😲
Nkuka became a social media sensation for posing as a statue of DR Congo's independence leader Patrice Lumumba, with his right hand raised and standing still throughout games 🇨🇩
Hate South Africa because of how they treat other black Africans, but be nice to Argentina a country that systematically erased and murdered its black people.
Brainless bastards.
