Zuarungu Senior High School in the Upper East Region has been closed indefinitely following violent clashes between students from the Gurune and Kusasi ethnic groups.

Minister Demands 30% DSTV Price Cut Over Cedi Gains

The Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations, Hon. Samuel Nartey George, has urged Multichoice Ghana to reduce DSTV subscription prices by 30%, citing the recent appreciation of the Ghanaian cedi and rising consumer dissatisfaction.

Speaking at a meeting with a DSTV delegation led by Dr. Keabetswe Modimoeng, the Minister emphasized that despite a 30% improvement in the cedi’s value over five months, subscription rates remain unchanged.

He stressed that Ghanaians prefer a direct price cut over temporary promotions and criticized the platform’s content as outdated, aside from Premier League coverage. Multichoice has until July 21 to respond with a concrete proposal.
