OBSERVER'S CORNER

themes Just as it happens in any society at night, the case of Sowutuom is quite different and exceptional with the springing up of so many slums and ghettos putting social vices on the high which in the long is affecting the morality of the  society that once housed morality in the Ga West District. Despite the fact that the Catholic church has its formation  houses for priests and friars on the hills of this geographical enclave many young ones care less about the practice of social vices which has become a normal thing of the day in the lives of pretty and attractive young adults. Parading the principal streets of the town towards the Ofankor road leading to Kumasi and the Eastern Region is where one is faced the surprise of the number of night clubs and restaurants as well as pubs housing these recalcitrant young adults who have decided to live their lives in a shabby and uncouth manner. It pains the heart most how some elders in the society fathom to the high rise

Genesis 1:8,10, Psalm 102:19,25, Jeremiah 10:11-12 and Hebrews 1:10 make it pretty clear that “the heavens and the earth” in the manner presented in Genesis 1:1 fall short of being a single phrase referring to the universe as is the case in Ezra 5:11 and Mathew 11:25 but are rather different and distinct entities which refer to the skies on whose waters God established His abode (Psalm104:3) and the dry land on which plants, animals and humans live respectively. In spite of this, Genesis 1:1 declares that the heavens and the earth were made in a certain time called “BEGINNING.”   Also, Exodus 20:11 expresses the view that the above mentioned heavens and earth together with the seas and their entire hosts were made in a “SIX DAYS” period. In another respect, Genesis 1:3-31 describes, though sometimes not in full, how, why and when the heavens, earth, seas and their hosts were made in a “SIX DAYS” period as suggested by Exodus 20:11. From the above narrative it is suggested that th

  Its been barely a three now that the mantle was given to Madugu to led the student body, many are those who complained about the akwaaba trip the Akosombo. I wasn't there yet those that made the trip couldn't hid their discomfort in how accommodation was arranged. Information reaching my desk indicates that many are those who made it without paying full or nothing at all. The feedback from the office of the SRC was so poor for one to wonder how someone will come from home with the intention that a friend will enter the bus and Hanover ticket to him or her? I can't think far about this. I pray it never happen again in any next organized trip. I never supported Madugu in the elections but comparing his administration to what I have witnessed he has done far better than his predecessors especially the during the era of "branded canopies" which are nowhere to be found on campus barely a year after unveiling.

We are all aware that as journalists as we are we should be objective in everything we do no matter what the situation will be. I was not surprised to hear such insults leveled against the flagbearer of the main opposition party in Ghana by a suspended constituency chairman of the party on Radio Gold's most listened programme, Alhaji and Alhaji. I was worried about the way and manner Alhaji Suhuyini sat as the host and allowed such utterances being leveled against against another all in the name of politics. How would a host sit and allow a panelist insult the dignity of another? Age is just a number and he, Nii Djabang Abbey to insult Nana Akuffo Addo is just uncultured on his part. I am very well convinced that the host allowed that because it was against his opposition party leader.  I was very much disappointed in Mr. Suhuyini to allow that on his show. The intelligence of a man to be addressed in such a devastated way should have prompted him to let the suspended chairm

themes Political campaigns are in a way to inform and lure electorates to buy into their idea of what they will do when given the waggle to govern the country and not make countless promises which cannot be achieved in a four year period. It is obvious that when elections are drawing near in any institution or country, aspirants are tempted and forced to make promises and pledges which are sometimes not achieved. This year’s general election is of no different from the others. In the previous election of 2012 we heard the “one student, one laptop” policy of the National Democratic Congress ( NDC ) and “free education” from the New Patriotic Party ( NPP ). This year is not different as earlier stated as we are hearing countless of promises which have turned to be talk of the people in town from promises of the power drunk two main political parties in the country. This year’s political campaign has taken a new facet from “I will do this” syndrome to “promises of ones.” How do

themes The Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition must stop the deceit of members of this royal country, Ghana about the return of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah to the country of his birth. It is always alleged that Dr. J.B Danquah financed the trip of Dr. Nkrumah from overseas and this beats my mind because I do not understand how someone who was paid by another finance the flight of another? It is on records just that members of the elephant family do not want the truth to be told to the masses because they have the desire to paint the freedom fighter black as they did in 1965 and 66. On Dr. Nkrumah's invitation to Ghana, the executives of UGCC though were not paid were free to go about their duties and profession but Nkrumah was made to work as full time secretary without any other job so how do they expect him to feed and besides the party was financed by George Grant well known as Paa Grant so I do not understand how Dr. Danquah financed the trip. It could be that he asked him t
