Otabil’s pricey, unbiblical menu of miracles

Posted on August 2, 2017 by nyamewaa • 5 Comments

All these years I had been sacrificing to honour my folks and love my neighbour, I wish someone had told me I could have taken a shortcut by lying, cheating and stealing to make $5,000 and pay for blessings. This is basically the sum of the argument of the folks fiercely defending what I have … Continue reading →

18 Questions Nana Addo Must Answer Tomorrow

Posted on July 17, 2017 by nyamewaa • 2 Comments

For the first time since his swearing in, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo will meet and answer questions from journalists. It has taken the president six months to restart this age-old practice where presidents sit and answer wide-ranging questions about their performance members of the media. Nana Akuffo-Addo came to the presidency on a … Continue reading →

Dear Nana Addo: Is this your best shot

Posted on July 6, 2017 by nyamewaa • 1 Comment

Dear Nana Addo! When you won the elections, my NDC friends warned me against believing that your presidency would be different. They said all politicians were the same while I argued that you’d be different because you’ve had years to reflect and plan for the presidency, and that there was no way you were going … Continue reading →

Otiko: Educate yourself, unlearn your misogynistic ways

It was shocking to read portions of the speech you gave to the impressionable girls at the Krobo Girls Secondary School over the weekend. You took my breath away when I saw you on TV saying girls are responsible for their rape if they wear short clothes with a big smile: “In conclusion, I want … Continue reading →

As a rule, I do not comment on the work of other journalists. I try not to criticize their views on life or national debates either. It’s a small community, and, we often are on one side, trying to hold the powerful accountable and keep citizens informed. We do so much with so little under … Continue reading →

Counselor Lutterodt’s views belong in the bin, not on radio

Posted on March 2, 2017 by nyamewaa • 4 Comments

George Lutterodt popularly known as Counselor Lutterodt needs to crawl back into whichever hole he came out of.  We know, like many of his peers in the motivation industry, policing women’s choices under the guise of counselling is more profitable than most 12-hour day jobs. But unlike his peers, Lutterodt has not had the good … Continue reading →

In praise of Otiko’s refusal to bend

Posted on February 6, 2017 by nyamewaa • 11 Comments

I was not expecting to be impressed by the ministerial nominee for Gender, Children and Social Protection. I was still annoyed with her for refusing to condemn Kennedy Agyapong when he accused the Electoral Commissioner, Charlotte Osei of trading sex for her position. Sexist, misogynistic and distasteful comments, and the Women’s Organiser of the NPP, … Continue reading →

Parliament cannot be trusted to probe bribery scandal

Posted on February 1, 2017 by nyamewaa • 3 Comments

No one is genuinely shocked by the MP for Bawku Central, Mahama Ayariga’s bribery allegations. We have long suspected MPs of bribery since the former MP for Asikuma-Odoben-Brakwa, PC Appiah Ofori revealed that the Vodafone deal was only approved after the executive paid MPs off. Our suspicions were confirmed when the former Majority leader, Alban … Continue reading →

Congratulations! My heart is full and brimming with joy not because you won but because majority of our people chose to save Ghana on December 7, 2016. As you are well aware, the last four years have been hard for Ghana, nearly all of us, except those who were close to the political feeding trough … Continue reading →

Good riddance to incompetent Mahama

Posted on December 19, 2016 by nyamewaa • 6 Comments

Oh, what joy! The day I feared may never come in 2016 came on December 7th, when Ghanaians voted massively to kick President John Dramani Mahama and his governing National Democratic Congress out of office. This was my prayer on January 6, 2016. It was my fervent prayer that we could get rid of him … Continue reading →
