“Sir… you can’t just take her home because you feel responsible.
I was thirty-eight when I pulled that girl out of that burning car. I was riding back from work when I saw the smoke and hit the brakes hard. I yanked the door open, unbuckled her fast, and carried her out before the flames climbed higher. The crews tried to reach her parents, but they didn’t make it. She held my vest like she wasn’t letting go. I followed the ambulance on my bike.
The next days were meetings, forms, and folks telling me to step back. I kept coming anyway. She reached for me every time I showed up. That was enough. When no relatives stepped forward, I signed the papers and took her home. Bought a car seat. Packed lunches. Sat through school meetings. Worked every shift I could.
She grew into Avery—sharp, steady, focused. She trained hard, passed every test, and said she wanted to serve the town that gave her a second chance. She made it into the academy and earned her badge clean.
Twenty-five years later, she pinned it on and looked at me.”

The man, whose identity has not yet been established, was seen wandering on the rail lines as the train drew near, according to video footage taken by the train's camera. The victim remained on the track and was struck before the train stopped, despite the train operator's desperate attempts to blow the horn.

The Ghana Railway Development Authority (GRDA) has apologized for the unfortunate event.
The accident occurred at about 4:15 p.m., when the Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU2) train, was enroute to Afienya along the Tema–Mpakadan line. Police personnel from the Community 25 Division responded and conveyed the body to the Tema General Hospital for examination and formal identification.

‎Preliminary investigations revealed that the train operator repeatedly sounded the horn after spotting the man on the tracks, but the victim failed to move to safety before being struck. The Ghana Railway Development Authority has cautioned the public against walking along or crossing railway tracks, stressing that such actions pose serious risks to life. It reiterated its commitment to ensuring safety along all railway corridors and pledged continued collaboration with law enforcement and emergency services to prevent similar tragedies.

The GRDA added that management has launched an investigation to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the incident.
‎
As authorities step up public education about the risks of intruding on train tracks, the most recent incident adds to the rising concerns about pedestrian safety along the railway network.
A stone was allegedly hurled at a moving train earlier on Monday, damaging a window. The suspects fled the area before security could stop them.

With Ghana getting closer to leaving the International Monetary Fund (IMF) program in May 2026, this year's presentation is thought to be among the most important in recent years. Therefore, it is anticipated that the budget would present the government's plan for shifting from IMF supervision to a growth goal that is driven locally.

The budget is anticipated to be intensively examined by economists, policy experts, and business executives for indications of post-IMF changes, especially in the areas of debt sustainability, public sector spending, and private sector development.

Prioritizing job creation, productivity, and economic expansion, Dr. Forson has previously stated that the 2026 budget will be based on targeted investments in important growth sectors including manufacturing, digital innovation, and agriculture.

It is anticipated that the presentation would also highlight initiatives to strengthen social protection programs to safeguard disadvantaged groups, improve domestic revenue mobilization, and consolidate macroeconomic stability.

The site was packed with thousands of excited candidates hoping to join the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF).

There were apparently numerous injuries and fatalities as a result of the commotion produced by the enormous turnout and strong pushing at the doors.

According to reports, many injured people are being treated in the hospital's trauma department, while the dead have been transported to the 37 Military Hospital mortuary.

In order to restore order and aid in rescue attempts, security officers have subsequently cordoned off the area, and the military has closed important routes surrounding El-Wak Stadium. G-Matters Arising Highlights

In an interview with JoyNews' PM Express, the Effutu MP disclosed that he was on the verge of dropping out of St. Augustine's College due to financial difficulties, but Dr. Nduom's scholarship intervention saved his life.

He recalled, "I always say that if it weren't for Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom's bursary, I wouldn't be sitting here; I wouldn't have finished SHS in Saint Augustine's final year."

In the first and second years, my friends' parents paid for my tuition, but by the third year, things had gotten awful. My mother didn't have a job. My stepfather had been demoted. They weren't getting paid when he worked at Pomaze Poultry.

He explained how the family's financial circumstances got worse as a result of his stepfather's political downfall.

Politics caused him to be demoted. They claimed that he had supported Kufuor in the election of 1996. As a result, he was demoted, moved, assigned to anchor food, and turned into a watchman in place of a missing foreman. They weren't getting paid because Pomaze Poultry's business was declining, he claimed.

The MP recalled Dr. Nduom's introduction of a competitive bursary program that recognized academic achievement.

"Dr. Nduom brought his bursary and declared that anyone who broke his record ought to receive it. It was a contest. It wasn't even for a gifted but underprivileged child. And by God's grace, I prevailed. He said, "I'm saying that, but I would have left St. Augustine's College for that."

Afenyo-Markin described the Free Senior High School (Free SHS) program as one of Ghana's most effective social initiatives and used the narrative to highlight his strong defense of it.

Nowadays, a lot of people would say you they have completed SHS if you are looking for housekeepers or gardeners for your property. Before, that wasn't the case. Both wealthy and impoverished homes have profited, he added.

Additionally, he denied the Free SHS program's detractors, claiming that education is a potent equalizer.

Our goal is to establish a platform that will increase Ghanaians' capacity as human resources. We succeeded in doing that," he emphasized.

When considering the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) governance, Afenyo-Markin recognized the difficulties the party faced, such as the COVID-19 economic shocks and the decline in middle-class support.

But he insisted that the NPP's track record of social action is still unparalleled.

He listed programs that improved people's lives and boosted the economy, including the Free SHS, One District One Factory, school food, and the National Health Insurance Scheme.

Tell us about one social intervention activity that your NDC party has effectively started and carried out since 1992. "They have nothing," he said. G-Matters Arising
