Celebrated civil rights lawyer Benjamin Crump has received the prestigious Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah Diaspora Awards.

He was awarded for his inspiring and tireless efforts in securing justice after the racial killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Trayvon Martin, Tyre Nichols, Michael Brown, Keenan Anderson, Sonya Massey, and many more people of African descent.

Mr. Crump’s extraordinary legal activism and pursuit of justice continues to emulate the ideals Kwame Nkrumah fought and died for.

#NESTLE AND AFRICA
The multi-national corporation, @Nestle NESTLE, is allegedly applying double standards which puts Africa children in serious danger.
According to “Public Eye”, a Swiss Non-Governmental organization, NESTLE adds sugar to baby food prepared for the African market against guidelines from the World Health Organization.
“Public Eye” claims that in Switzerland where the food and drink multi-national is headquartered and other European countries, NESTLE’s main baby cereal brand is sold with zero added sugar.
A report by “Public Eye” said most of the samples of NESTLE’s Cerelac Infant cereals on sale in African countries contained added sugar, while equivalent products sold in Europe do not.

Last Saturday, I was proud to accompany my lovely Vera, the exceptional CEO of the @dzatafoundation - the CSR wing of my office as MP - to pick up an award as the Humanitarian Heroine of the year at the #AFLAGAwards.

It was a proud moment to see the extraordinary work Vera and her team put in being recognised and celebrated. She and her team deserve the flowers they are getting for the many lives they are touching and transforming.

Keep achieving, Babes. I've got you always and will keep on cheering! 🦁😎

While in the Western Region, I made a stop at the Benso Oil Palm Plantation in Adum Abanso, where I interacted with workers and smallholder farmers.

Our discussions focused on how renewed investment and attention to the oil palm industry can unlock massive job opportunities, empower rural communities, and drive Ghana’s transformation agenda!

At the Public Accounts Committee yesterday , the University of Education appeared before us. In response to my direct question on the over GHS 28 million paid as honorarium to some members of the previous management, the explanation offered for their inability to retrieve the money was unsatisfactory.

Such a significant disbursement, without clear justification, raises serious concerns of financial impropriety.

This is public money, not a private endowment. We cannot and will not tolerate opaque governance practices, questionable fiscal decisions, or any breach of public financial discipline.

We will continue to interrogate the facts rigorously, demand accountability, and pursue this matter to its logical conclusion.

Our mandate is clear: protect the public purse, uphold institutional integrity, and ensure no individual or clique treats state resources as personal largesse.

Public institutions must operate with probity, transparency, and unimpeachable ethical standards.

Ghana deserves better.

Private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has urged the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) to initiate a trial in absentia against former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, insisting that the law permits such action if the accused has been duly informed but fails to appear. #CitiNewsroom

Speaking of SML, I am generally behind on Ghana news by quite a bit. So, I'm only now coming up to speed with many key developments.

1. It is reported that the President has finally ordered the termination of the SML agreement. Sigh of relief.

2. Regular readers of this page will recall the spirited debate over whether SML's work made any contributions to stemming tax-revenue loss in Ghana.

3. Activists were pitted against professors. Data became a battlefield.

4. For those who need a reminder, try this:
https://t.co/L2Ttv9Sd9o

5. My view then and now is that SML is a perfect example of how policy analysis, as well as callings like investigative journalism, vindicates interdisciplinary thinking. One day, folks will understand. Being a professor of finance does not make one automatically insightful in a policy context like SML where 20 different disciplines are involved. It does take a discerning society to appreciate this, though.

6. Anyway, the Special Prosecutor's report should emphatically settle the dispute: no revenue gains accrued to Ghana due to SML's work, full stop.

7. For those who really pay attention, the connection between SML and LHIMS/GHIMS should be obvious. In both cases, you have purported digitalisation schemes worth tens of millions of dollars meant to save the soul of the Republic ("state enchantment"). In both cases, the results fall far short of the claims.

7. I ask the question: has there been any national learning at all? Will Ghanaian elites do anything different going forward?

8. Will digital initiatives be subject to proper consultative, open, and transparent governance reviews by disinterested parties before large amounts of money are ploughed into them?

9. On the issue of the Big Four professional service firms (Deloitte, KPMG, PwC, and Ernst & Young), what have we learnt?

10. Sure, they have a lot of capacity that is hard to find in these parts. But they are also CONSTRAINED by the fact that they are often called upon to conduct investigations the outcomes of which could embarrass powerful people, who are the very same people doling out the jobs Big 4 firms need to survive in a tight market like Ghana.

11. Shouldn't we then learn HOW to use them more effectively? It is clear that they should be confined to FACT-FINDING and technical analysis and not be asked to make recommendations and conclusions in policy and politically sensitive matters. We put such firms in an unwinnable situation if we do.

12. It was super-evident in the DBG matter, and this SML matter has reinforced the point. The Big 4 are smart and thorough. They can dig into stuff and uncover a lot. But you've got to leave it there. If you stretch them to produce recommendations, etc., they start being, as the Special Prosecutor, called it, "placatory" towards power. See some earlier thoughts on this:
https://t.co/72ebDZLrbu

13. Another interesting thing the Special Prosecutor touched on is how the brands of multinational corporations are "deployed" in some of these schemes. In the SML case, it was Coctena. Attempts were made to make it look as if Coctena's cred fully covers SML. Where have we seen that before?

14. Remember the 5G gig? NGIC? Who were we told are the joint venture partners? The part owners? Consortium members? Nokia? Radisys? Mahindra? Wasn't Indian billionaire, Ambani, mentioned? When we showed clearly that all this was mere "packaging," did it make an jot of difference?

15. We arrive at a familiar point. I know I sound like a broken record. But the truth is that no society can advance if its elites vacate the public space and fail to constitute "critical audiences" for policy-intensive matters. If they fail to track the lessons of public decision-making and put NATIONAL LEARNING to use. A society where politics become policy-less because the elite groupings that can track policy outcomes and lessons are disengaged, a KATANOMIC society, is doomed to keep revolving in a loop, of endless mess-making.

Images of my visit to our compatriots in Côte d’Ivoire following my 3-day working visit.

I urged the remaining 5,309 to return home just as some 8,000 others who fled the communal conflict have done.

Immensely grateful to our Ivorian neighbors for their exceptional hospitality and compassion.

Government continues to support with relief items. I also presented a cash donation on behalf of President Mahama. Every Ghanaian everywhere is valuable to the Mahama Administration.

While we must do everything in our power to prevent conflicts, it is heartwarming to observe how our neighboring countries look out for each other when there are internal challenges— in 2010 and 2011 Ghana hosted some 17,000 Ivorians who sought refuge in our country.

May we work to end communal clashes, and may our regional solidarity grow stronger.
