President Mahama's Appointment of Young People Shocked Ghanaians



Let's be optimistic comrades,
I am particularly excited about the youthful nature of president Mahama's nominees. I recall a discussion I was having with some comrades at a base in Adenta prior to the nominations where I said I was interested in being the CEO of Forestry Commission or National Youth Authority and I was laughed at. My own friends felt like "eii CEO paa! Isn't it too big? Why don't you look for some errand job at some ministry?😂 Well, when the nominations started flowing, they were like " Hamza, after all, you can also be a CEO." The fact is that president Mahama has swerved everyone, surprised all of us.

Nobody foresaw these appointments, not even me. We were all thinking he was going to re-appoint his former appointees or old people. As it turned out, all his appointments have been revolutionary. Everyone is shocked by the appointments.

What am I driving at? Let us be happy for our comrades both seniors and juniors who have attracted the attention of the appointer. Let us be optimistic that our turn will come, even if small, even if late. Today, I can walk into NIA comfortably knowing that Yayra Koku is there; I can walk to DVLA knowing that Julius Neequaye Kotey is there, etc. We may not know certain appointees, this doesn't mean that they will work against our interest. There is no cause for alarm. We will test them and if they fail, we will expose them.

Hon. Ramadan Supports 50 Needy Tertiary Students

The Member of Parliament for the Adentan Constituency, Hon. Mohammed Adamu Ramadan, has given financial support to over fifty needy tertiary students in his constituency. The source of funding is the MP's Common Fund. The MP's office however declined to make available a list of the beneficiaries to Adenta News insisting that the list was a confidential document.  Adenta News is reliably informed that the MP for Adentan has also undertaken several projects to improve upon the standard of education in the Adentan Constituency. In October last year for instance, he donated a laptop to a student of DeYoungster's School who was a second runner up in the Citi fm's "Literacy Challenge".  Shortly after he took over from the NPP's Buaben Asamoa, Hon. Ramadan donated stationery worth ¢10,000 to the Adentan GES office to be distributed to schools in the municipality (My first day at school). The MP for Adentan is a shining example to the youth. His selfless service...

Life is not fair,get used to it and move on

My good friend Kojo Akyina lost his life in what appears to be a ritual murder. His manhood was cut off and he was left to bleed to death in a suburb of Kumasi. When we were growing up, Akyina being a talented footballer wanted to play at the highest level until he met his untimely death. Two years now his murderers have not been found. If ever they were pursued in the first place. What a world?  My nephew of almost the same age who was my childhood friend died a couple of years ago after a short illness. Pappa, left a wife and four little kids and he didn't witness his 40th birthday. The news of his death was broken to me at dawn. It was so shocking to me to the extent that after two years of his demise, I put my phone on silent every night when I am about to go to bed. Life!  When I was a child I wanted to be a medical doctor when I grew up. I am not a medical doctor now and I don't even know what I want to become. Behind the  sweet smiles of men, there is a bitter sadness wo...

PRESS RELEASE For immediate release: 26TH APRIL, 2024 Dear President Akuffo-Addo, A RESPONSE TO YOUR FRIVOLOUS AND CRASS INSENSITIVE PUBLIC PROCLAMATION ON YOUR DECISION NOT TO HAND OVER POWER TO THE NEXT NDC GOVERNMENT I am writing to you today as the former National Youth Organizer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to express my utmost disgust and outrage at your recent statement proclaiming that you would not hand over power to His Excellency John Dramani Mahama should he be elected President of Ghana in the upcoming December 7th, 2024 elections. Your proclamation is an expression of your insensitivity to our democracy and a blatant disregard for the will of the Ghanaian people. It is a slap in the face of every Ghanaian who believes in the principles of democracy and the rule of law. Your failure and mismanagement of the economy have led our beloved country into a state of economic hardship, and Ghanaians are eager to take you out of office through the ballot box. Should Gh...
