OCCUPY JUBILEE HOUSE PROTEST: A Wake-Up Call for the Ruling Class

Image
In the past three days, Ghana has witnessed a wave of intense anti-government protests dabbed #OCCUPYJULORBIHOUSE that should serve as a resounding wake-up call to the ruling class . It has become increasingly evident that the powers that be are turning a blind eye to the grievances simmering on the streets. The issues at hand are pressing, and their consequences are already being felt throughout the nation.  Unemployment, like an unchecked wildfire, is spreading rampantly among our youth. The economic toll of this crisis is suffocating, stifling dreams and aspirations. It's disheartening to observe that our leaders seem indifferent to the fact that unemployment is not just an economic problem but also a significant security threat. Teenage pregnancy rates are on the rise, further highlighting the social issues plaguing our society. Partisanship has become the dominant force, overshadowing genuine public interest. It leaves one questioning the very essence of leadership in our de

CAGED IN THE PAST

FreepiK Sometimes people have worldviews anchored in ancient ways of doing things that have long been abandoned. Such people latch onto a particular approach to life, archaic leadership style and business and they refuse to embrace or adapt to any form of change. They are caught in the past, disconnected from the Present and oblivious of the future. This type of frozen fools, if given them leadership roles or position, they would cause leadership crises, economic death In the face of monumental shifts, we need leaders who are appraised with the NOW, not those who are frozen in time or hanging onto old ways in the face of digital age. We don't need people who just shout Tsoo-Boi. We need leaders who can  put in actions that suit the NOW, and at the end help build TODAY as TOMORROW. Give CHANCES to the Future generations. Leave mark that even in the future, it will be fresh in the mind of those who never met YOU. For instant we can feel Dr. Kwame Nkrumah the first President of the re

GHANA@65: LET'S REFLECT AND REDEDICATE

Image
Yesterday was my Dad's 65th birthday and Ghana's 65th Independence celebrations. Dear Dad, Happy birthday and Keep Resting In the Lord till we meet again . As I said earlier, yesterday was also 65th Anniversary of Ghana's Independent day. However, I think it's time we rededicates and reflects vehemently on how we're managing the affairs and the resources of this country and how far we have come. Not just chanting ' Happy 65th Independence day. The question is; How is it's citizens fairing?, How is their conditions of living? Are we making progress as a country?, How is our Educational, Security, Health, Legal and Agriculture system? These areas mentioned are key to review as we marked 65th Anniversary, in my humble opinion. Despite the verient effort been made by some of our hardworking officials or leaders, I still believe that there's a lot of canker in the system pulling us back from where we supposed to be at this age (65years). It's time our lea

No matter what your new year resolution is, the TYPE  of PEOPLE in your LIFE has a lot to do in your JOURNY of life. Never start a new year without screening the people in your circles. Evaluating them will let you know who to Upgrade, Downgrade or totally Terminate.  Always remember not everybody deserves the front seat to participate in the movie of your life.

But try your possible best to evaluate and encourage the fellow first.
