Leo Messi: "I can't ask for anything more, God gave me too much, now everything is just to enjoy.
"I'm just happy to being considered as one of the best in football history, I'm just grateful to be considered among many great players..."
🚨 BREAKING: Jamie Carragher blasts FIFA and Canada over Thomas Partey visa controversy
"This is an absolute disgrace from a tournament planning point of view. You spend years building towards a World Cup, qualifying, preparing squads, getting everything right — and then something like this happens days before kickoff. It’s just not acceptable at this level of football."
"If Thomas Partey is part of Ghana’s plans and has been cleared to be in the squad, then how does it get to a point where a visa issue knocks him out of the opening game against Panama? That’s not football, that’s administration failure."
"I don’t care who is responsible — FIFA, Canada, immigration — someone has to take accountability. You cannot tell fans to invest emotionally in a tournament and then allow situations where key players are missing because paperwork wasn’t sorted in time."
"At the very least, these issues should be resolved weeks before the first match. It’s unfair on the player, it’s unfair on Ghana, and it damages the integrity of the competition. This is exactly the kind of chaos that should never happen at a World Cup."
The Government of Ghana is repatriating 327 Ghanaians from La Côte d'Ivoire following a mass demolition exercise by Ivorian authorities.
228 arrived in Ghana safely yesterday.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ special consular intervention of bringing back home Ghanaians and their belongings is to guarantee the protection and welfare of our stranded compatriots.
The Ministry is grateful to all those who brought this development to our attention and conveys appreciation to our diplomatic mission in Abidjan and Ivorian authorities for the effective cooperation and welcome promise of compensation.
For God and Country 🇬🇭 🙏

So far, almost all traffic lights and streetlights in the Oforikrom Municipality are fixed and functioning. You are however admonished to report any non-functional streetlight and traffic light for swift attention. #StillTheJobDeyGrounds
Every year it rains. Every year Accra floods. We all know the main problems: choked gutters, poor drainage, building in waterways, and leaders who wait until disaster before talking.
But instead of fixing it before next year’s rain, someone will still find a way to blame the NDC. Ghana is 69 years old.
“It is sad that we operate a health insurance system where children between the ages of 0 and 18 are supposed to receive free healthcare, yet you find a child who has been discharged for two weeks still unable to go home because the parents cannot afford to pay a GH¢7,000 bill.”
—Former legislator and 2024 Vice Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has shared his concerns about the state of the country’s healthcare system while advocating for a collective effort from all stakeholders to ensure quality healthcare delivery is accessible to everyone, especially the underprivileged.
Every year, Ghana adds over 600,000 more people to the population.
That is 600,000 more people needing classrooms, hospitals, jobs, housing, transport, water and electricity.
Development should not be based on NPP and NDC strongholds. It should be based on actual human beings and actual numbers. 👍🏾
One thing we don’t talk about enough is how opposition politics can quietly become a fight against the country itself. No party should love power so much that it quietly benefits from Ghana struggling.
When a government is in power, the goal should not be to make Ghana look like it is failing so voters get angry. The goal should be to make Ghana work, even if your party is not in charge.
Because when power changes, the old party’s people don’t vanish from the system. They are still in ministries, agencies, boards, offices, and key places.
So if everyone is secretly working for party victory instead of national progress, who is actually working for Ghana?
If every issue becomes about party winning or losing, then who is thinking about the country?
