A caught on camera assaulting a GHOne TV journalist during the recent election unrest is now facing criminal charges.

The attack, which drew widespread outrage, occurred as tensions flared at a polling center. The journalist, who was covering the violence, sustained injuries in the scuffle.

Authorities say the officerโ€™s actions undermine public trust, and his prosecution sends a clear signal that media freedom and citizen safety must be protected, even in heated political moments.

artist Sister Derby has set the internet on fire with a blunt declaration: โ€œMarriage is a form of prostitution. You pay a bride price.โ€

Her comment, made during a recent discussion on marriage customs, challenges a longโ€‘held tradition where men pay a bride price before marriage. She argues that if love is truly free, no transaction should be involved.

The statement has sparked fierce debates, with many agreeing that in real life, financial pressures often overshadow love in marriage, while others defend the practice as cultural honor.

The cost of iron rods in Ghana has seen a significant drop, bringing much-needed relief to contractors and builders across the country.
A ton of iron rods, which previously sold for 9,600, is now going for around 7,700.

Industry players have welcomed the reduction, describing it as a major boost for the construction sector, which has been grappling with high material costs in recent months.
Experts say the new pricing will help lower the overall cost of construction projects, making it easier for developers, homeowners, and businesses to move forward with stalled building plans.

A sweeping audit has led to the removal of over 500 individuals from Ghanaโ€™s security services, following concerns over nonโ€‘compliance with transparent hiring processes. The Ministry of the Interior commissioned a sevenโ€‘member committee in February to investigate recruitment irregularities across the Police, Prisons, Fire, Immigration, and Narcotics Control Services

Though full details remain pending, the findings underscore significant procedural lapses in last yearโ€™s intake. The Ministry has pledged to implement committee recommendations to restore integrity, fairness, and accountability in future recruitment drives.

MY MESSAGE TO AND IN RESPECT TO THE KING IN .
7 MAJOR REASONS WHY THE โ‚ฆGHANAIANS MOST REJECT THE IDEA OF HAVING AN KING IN .

This will be an issue that I will comprehensively address in my next broadcast, because this is how they started this Madness in land, it's unfortunate that Igbo biafruod biafra unity beggers association Madness is getting out of hand.
I wish they will see the damage they are doing to the next generation of their people.

1.... Igbo don't have king in their own place so why are they making Kings everywhere they go, this is one truth every Nigerians know, they even have a parable that says Igbo don't have King.

2.... Don't forget the implication of planting of trees in another person's land, by African tradition that land belongs to the person who planted it until it is harvested, I saw the Igbo King has promised to plant Igbo trees in another man's land are some of those trees he talks about can last hundreds of years.

3....... They are going to set a criminal Empire (base), this group of igbo biafra people always get involved in criminal activities like, drug pushing, selling of fake drugs, human trafficking, woman organ trafficking, ritualist, 419 AKA Yahoo Yahoo, baby factory, prostitution, kidnapping, instigating one tribe against another, blackmailing, character assassinating, distortion of history and a base for propaganda.
4........ They don't allow strangers to settle down in their place, it is evidence that this Igbo biafra people do not allow even fellow Nigerians to have peace in their region, they don't sell land to fellow Nigerians but yet they are going about everywhere buying other people's land and imposing their identity on other ethnic groups here in Nigeria, and so you should have it at the back of your mind that they have interior motives.

5....... They will claim your land by distortion of history which day are perfect in, tomorrow they will begin to talk about c**k and bull story how they are aborigine people in Ghana, they will tell your children and the rest of the world how they have been living in that land even before there was any country called Ghana just as they are doing in Nigeria trying to clean some ethnic group they now call sub Igbo group, they are even trying to manipulate the government to create a state for them outside their region.

6........ They will marry your daughters to give birth to the children they will use to fight your own children, this children that will be born in Ghana by this Igbo biafra men with your daughters will become the instrument they are going to use to infertility your people and destroy your community.

7........ They will influence the politics of Ghana negatively, there will begin to go from one political house to another to sponsor those that will rule Ghana from behind the scent from these their base, if you allow them to succeed they will be the one that will be sponsoring criminals to rule Ghana in the nearest future.
These people know what they are doing, but we already know who they are. this exposure will be in line with what they are already doing in Delta state with the same strategy they are trying to use against the Ghanaians.
........DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO PULL THE SHOT OR ELSE THE PEOPLE OF GHANA IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS WILL WISH THOSE PEOPLE WERE NOT GIVING SUCH PRIVILEGES.

โ€œIโ€™m not too old to be ignored. Iโ€™ve sacrificed for the NPP,โ€ he said, expressing deep concern about his growing from party affairs. His remarks have sparked fresh debate about respect for elder statesmen within Ghanaโ€™s political landscape.

Ghanaโ€™s Eastern Regional Police Command is calling on to urgently improve network coverage in robbery-prone areas such as Adukrom-Aseseeso, Somanya, and Donkorkrom. Poor connectivity, they say, is aiding armed robbers who ambush commuters and attack mobile money vendors.

Speaking at the 2025 Forum, police officials stressed that stronger communication infrastructure is critical to boosting emergency response and reducing crime. โ€œCriminals are exploiting bad roads and weak signals to strike,โ€ ASP Agyare Kofi Okyere warned.
