OBSERVER'S CORNER

The voter register of the republic of ghana is now the talk event of the day where political parties are taking their turns to make their intention known to the public and Electoral Commission whether to change or maintain the register that was used during the 2012 elections. Despite their take on it i have taken my turn to also make my intention known and my take on the register. this is not based on any affiliation to a political regime but rather as a concern citizen. many ghanaians will hit on me with my opinion as it is common in the country. If i remember vividly during the hearing of the  2012 election petition, Dr. Afari Gyan declared that the reason why the presidential voter register is more than the parliamentary register is due to the fact that there are ghanaian citizens working outside the country for the state and therefore need to vote in the presidential  but rather cannot vote in the parliamentary all because they do not live here. When he was asked to presen

When Prof. Adei came out to say that the ghanaian parliament is corrupt the parlaimentarians came to say he was looking for attention whiles others wanted him dragged to the priviledges committee of parliament. a real statesman is not the person who speaks about the country in its bad state but someone who speaks the truth of his/her workplace. I was glad when Hon. Alban Kingsford Bagbin came out to vividly support what the learned professor said. This is a man who seeks for the welfare and good name of the ghanaian parliament. many are those who will only sit idle and wait to be dragged to face to speak the truth. What will one get when he seeks money before approving a budget or project that will benefit the nation? Nothing of course nothing. I am very sorry for all those parliamentarians who wants the Professor to be dragged to the priviledges committee when the know that that is what they do.

We always hear the saying that the law is no respecter of person and everyone is equal before the law but in the case of my role model, journalist com lawyer, Anas Aremeyaw Anas, the law seems to be burned in his favour. listening to the argument of lawyer Ndebugre i see that the law seems to favour the senior undercover world journalist in a way that a person needs not to face a judicial committee with a wool or mask or anything to cover the face to prevent it from being seen but in this case Anas did that and the custodians of the law sees no wrong with that. Another point where i will support my role model is the fact that it is known worldwide that he shows not his face in matters concerning investigations and people here in Ghana knows him but may not vividly recognize him because of the fact that he has change the name he really uses. I think the law should and is sometimes burnt on matters of this sort and this is an issue of public interest and i see no harm in him not showi

my heart is usually saddened when i see that the youth of these days dress and behave in a particular way with the intention that they are living the world. most of these youth do not know what the future holds for them with such dressings and behaviours. Listening to a friend he confidently told me a friend of his was not offered a job all because he shared a photo of a naked person on his facebook timeline. someone may think its just for fun but for the company it was real business they meant. Yesterday i was devastated to see tertiary students of a christian university, Pentecost University College dressed in a way that made me feel like coughing or vomiting all because they dressed to exposed most parts of their body and with their hair dyed in a colours of different types. I wonder what these students want to come out after their academic stay. to talk less on this i take you my own institute, the Ghana Institute of Journalism where most of the ladies dress calously to

i was very devastated when i heard what Stan Dogbe, the president's official in charge of media did to the GBC reporter on his interview recorded on the issue of the accident of the reporters which led to the death of Samuel Nuamah of blessed memory. i asked myself where then lies the security of some of us upcoming journalists if some of these things are happening to our elders who are already in the field. if people are facing these challenges in the media then our integrity is at stake and we are going to face so many troubles. what then is the free media ethic in the 1992 constitution of Ghana where we the media are free to operate and make criticisms and find solutions to problems. if it was in another country he would have been removed from office but here is the case it happened in our poor and corrupt country. i urge the government and corporate bodies to come and help solve such issues.

it seems am amazing when someone tells you that elections in Ghana are organised freely and fair. at the just ended district level elections baffles my mind on the disqualification of some of the aspirants. one was based on age and the other being education.taking a look at the 1992 constitution of the country Ghana, though some argue that it gave a limitation on the fact that one must be below seventy years before he/she can contest in district level elections. why does that not apply to the main election, thus, the parliamentary and presidential elections. i raise this point because looking at the age of the presidential aspirant of the main opposition NPP he will two years above seventy on the election year 2016. the factor of someone being disqualified because he/she is a student is mere hypocrisy on the part of the electoral commission because it is never stated in the constitution that a student cannot contest elections in the country. i will be glad to post a challenge to th
