Breaking News:
1. Parliament of Ghana has just passed the ground breaking LEGAL EDUCATION REFORM BILL, 2026.
2. This is a product of nearly 10yrs of persistent and consistent advocacy on my part which my Party bought into and made it a major campaign promise.
3. When I began, the naysayers sayers said it wasn’t possible.
4. The Reform is pervasive. The Bar too has been reformed such that we no longer have a single group of professional lawyers.
5. Today, we have the GHANA LAW SOCIETY with huge membership at the Bar.
6. I’m a very happy man today. I wish all prospective Law students the best of luck.
7. Reform is always Good. This is a new dawn for our legal profession in Ghana.
Here we go……….

🚨🗣️ Patrice Evra claims that none of his ex team mates have a leg to stand on after their own failures as managers:
"I hope Paul Scholes' Instagram story is fake, I hope he was hacked, To be honest, I'm not surprised at that from Scholesy. He was the quietest player I've ever played with in my entire career. Now, in the media, he drops bombshells.
There's been negative analysis from Scholesy, but also from Roy Keane and Gary Neville. It annoys me because we want to be in the top four, and those comments are unnecessary, but this is what you do when you work in TV. You can't be positive, you have to be negative.
Most of these guys get a managerial job and get fired straightaway. I said to Neville: 'It's easy to talk on TV. When you were at Valencia, they asked you for paella, and you gave them fish and chips.'"

@queen_xtar Devil’s advocate here: class is not a function of wealth. Poor societies too have class hierarchies. The problem with class in Ghana is that the so-called upper class has always been historically anti-independence and culturally antagonistic. They’re white people in black faces

@lydiaforson What’s worst is the foreign students who are not included in this stupid rule

Like it or not, the problem isn’t long hair — it’s BLACK HAIR.
Because long after school and into the workplace, locs and certain natural hairstyles are still frowned upon. It’s only in recent years that we’ve begun to see real acceptance.
Yet, somehow, weaves remain more “acceptable” in professional spaces.
The years of indoctrination have done a number on us.
I shudder for a people who have no desire to challenge the systems that should evolve with the times.
These are the same people who once told us not to wear shoes to school, to fight barefoot in wars, while they enjoyed every privilege we were denied.
Someone asked, “If this is allowed, what next?”
And my answer is simple: I don’t know.
But what I do know is that as a growing society, we exist to challenge systems, check excesses, and meet the world where it’s at.
If we didn’t, we’d still be digging farms with our bare hands.

@lydiaforson This one really hurts me. It’s just so barbaric to cut an African girl’s hair in order to admit her to a public school. What irks me the most is the exception that is granted to foreigners who also use the same public schools. Achimota is filled with white girls with long hair.

*sigh
Every time this conversation comes up, an army shows up in my mentions with the same tired lines: “It helps them focus.” “It makes them less attractive to predatory men.” “It disciplines them.”
Meanwhile, girls are still harassed, struggle in class and can be truant if they want.
And schools that allow braids, puffs, locs and all, shockingly, still produce excellent students.
Because the issue was never hair.
This rule is archaic. We treat it like sacred tradition because it’s easier than asking why it exists and whether it serves girls today.
And years later we wonder why women’s confidence is tangled up in their hair; why some spend fortunes trying to “fix” what we taught them was wrong; why so many don’t know how to care for their natural hair as adults.
From childhood, we told them their very texture is a problem.
Let’s update the rules: allow neat, healthy natural hair; teach hair care as part of hygiene, how hard is that?

@SIKAOFFICIAL1 Is the matching that important for fighting fires?.

@FelixKwakyeOfo1 The title of this letter is grammatically wrong. There must be the word ‘respectively’ at the end of the sentence.

@DavidHundeyin @PeterObiUSA Or maybe he’s generally talking about political independence of African countries in the 60s. Either way, we’re still not free.

What a time to be alive!

Really interesting seeing Eastern Europe's take on things. 100% correct aswell

@Joy997FM Close-up shots were great!. For a moment I thought Haruna was on CNN. As for the 24 hr economy, only time will tell. Great idea, but implementation is where the issues begin to pop up.
English

For President John Mahama, the risk of taking action outweighs the risk of inaction. Since the Guggisberg era, what has hindered Ghana’s progress is the dominance of the state trying to function as the private sector, but with Mahama’s 24-Hour Economy initiative, the government will act solely as an enabler and facilitator - Haruna Iddrisu.
