If young people don’t wake up, organize, vote wisely, demand better, and stop worshipping political parties, we will inherit a country built on excuses.

[Nana B. @koboateng]

When will the NDC and NPP apologize to Ghanaians for the pit they have dug for this country?

For over 30 years, they have taken turns in power, taken turns borrowing, taken turns blaming each other, and taken turns telling citizens to be patient while ordinary people keep paying the price.

You cannot help dig the pit, stand beside it, point fingers, and pretend you are only a commentator.

Both parties have had enough time to build a better Ghana. Instead, they have left us with excuses, debt, broken systems and recycled promises.

They owe Ghanaians more than another manifesto. They owe us an apology.

We went from literally no rumours to a hear we go within 24 hours. This is the most serious Barça have moved for a signing in as long as I can remember, incredible.

No links, nothing, right until the deal was on the verge of completion. For a transfer this high profile, how on earth have we pulled this off? Hats of Deco. Hats off.

[Mel Chi @mczedek]

We went shopping...hopefully we don't wait till deadline day to register them

[Reshad Rahman @ReshadRahman]

🚨 JUST IN: Deco didn’t go to London for just Anthony Gordon, but also met up with the camps of SEVERAL potential signings. @samuelmarsden #Transfers 📞🔵🔴

“Ghana's NITA Bill 2025: How a Government That Cannot Fix Potholes Wants to Certify Your Keyboard Strokes

There is a particular brand of Ghanaian governance that operates on a simple, well-rehearsed logic: identify the one sector in which ordinary young people, without connections, without family money, without a politician uncle are actually building something for themselves, and then erect a magnificent bureaucratic tollbooth right in the middle of it.

The National Information Technology Authority Bill, 2025 currently making its way through Ghana's legislative machinery with the quiet confidence of a document probably written by a majority of people who have never debugged a line of code in their lives is precisely that tollbooth. It is, in its 105 sections and accompanying Schedule, one of the most breathtaking exercises in regulatory overreach this country has produced in recent memory. And given our regulatory track record, that is genuinely saying something.

The ICT sector is the one industry where a boy from Ashaiman, or, like my friend from Pulima, Aliu Wahab, with a second-hand laptop and a YouTube tutorial, can compete with someone whose father went to Achimota. It is the one space where talent, not tribe; skill, not surname; output, not old-boy network, still carries meaningful weight. It is, bluntly, the only functioning meritocracy left in Ghana's economic life.

And our government, with the NITA Bill 2025 has decided that this is precisely the sector that requires the most elaborate regulatory architecture since the tale of Moses coming down from Sinai with the Ten Commandments.

The Absurdity of Section 46: Certifying Everyone, Everywhere, Always

Let us begin with what is, without competition, the most extraordinary provision in this bill. Section 46(1) states, in plain and unambiguous terms:

"A person shall not be appointed as an ICT professional in a public or private institution unless that person is certified by the Authority."

Read that again. Public or private.

This is not a provision that limits itself to government systems handling national security data. This is not a narrow carve-out for critical infrastructure. This is a provision that means the software developer at a startup in Osu, the data analyst at a logistics firm in Tema, the web designer freelancing from her bedroom in Kumasi, all of them, every single one must first obtain certification from a government authority before they can lawfully be employed.

Who dreamed this up? Under what theory of governance does it make sense for the government of Ghana which cannot consistently process a DVLA licence within six months, which spent years and hundreds of millions on a national identification system that still cannot talk to the health insurance database to position itself as the certifying gatekeeper for an entire profession across the entire economy?

And here is the delicious irony that the framers of this bill seem constitutionally incapable of perceiving: the government's own ICT record is the single most compelling argument against giving it certification authority over anyone. You do not hand the keys of the wine cellar to the person who has been drinking the wine.

Politicians: The One Profession That Needs Certification Most, and Gets It Least

Since we are on the subject of certification, let us pause to consider who in this country is not required to demonstrate any competence whatsoever before being handed consequential power over millions of lives.

[Simon Thazhigilla Simon🇳🇬 @Thazhigilla_]

I am Nigerian, and right now my dream is bigger than me.

Only about 4.5% of medical literature globally are represented on Black skin.

That means millions of Black patients are learning from systems that barely look like them. Medical students study diseases on skin tones that are not their own. Doctors are trained with visual references that often fail Black bodies.

That gap has consequences.
So I am deciding to build towards changing it.

I’m starting with a book.
But the larger vision is far beyond that. I want to help build software and medical visualization tools that make Black medical representation impossible to ignore.

This is not just about diversity aesthetics, this is about accuracy, education, visibility and better healthcare outcomes.

One day, I want a Black child studying medicine anywhere on earth to see themselves fully represented in what they learn.
And I believe we can build that future.

The protein that holds every cell in your body together is diagrammed as a cross.
It’s called Laminin. It binds the structure of all human tissue.
