Dr. George Domfe Writes:

YOU ARE SHAMELESSLY TALKING ABOUT GLOBAL IMPACTS ON THE GHANAIAN ECONOMY? AAAABAH!

In 2022, crude oil prices surged to $121 per barrel. In that same year, Germany recorded its highest inflation in 70 years, while both the UK and the US experienced inflation levels not seen in four decades. Prices went up everywhere in the world!

Unfortunately, when Ghana recorded its highest inflation in 26 years (54% in December 2022 was the highest after January 1996's inflation of 69.2%), and the causes were linked to global shocks, THEY dismissed the explanation and pushed the narrative that the economic crises was purely due to the incompetence of Nana Akufo-Addo.

Meanwhile, both the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank had described the 2022 global economic turmoil as the worst since the Great Depression of the 1930s, but that didn’t matter; THEIR conclusion remained the same: Akufo-Addo was “super incompetent.” Their academics, MPs, communicators, and 'fool soldiers' defended this position relentlessly.

Then, when global gold prices rose and inflows increased, among other things, the Bank of Ghana intervened heavily in the secondary forex market. Yet again, instead of acknowledging global market forces, THEY arrogantly credited it to fiscal consolidation.

Again, when global crude oil prices later dropped to around $60—naturally leading to lower pump prices—they suddenly attributed this to sound economic management.

Now, quite astonishingly, the same people are blaming the fall in cocoa farmgate prices on global market conditions, and their academic machinery is vigorously defending this position. While this position is true and reasonable, a little bit of respect for consistency should guide THEM never to mention global market!

Since when did THEY get to know that global market dynamics can affect our economy? What do THEY take Ghanaians for, people with short memory? I guess

Adwoa animah write;

When Hon. Vincent Ekow Assafuah raised concerns about the price and quality of sanitary pads being supplied to students, he was told to keep quiet and that he was peddling propaganda.

Now, the Education Minister has admitted the pads are inferior. And he is "auditing" them. Auditing what exactly?

Under Ghana’s Public Procurement Act, if a supplier delivers goods that fall short of what was contractually agreed, in terms texture, absorbency, size, it’s not administrative oversight. That is a fundamental breach of contract. Unless specifications were not agreed and samples requested which raises more serious concerns.

The remedy is not an audit. The remedy is a writ. An audit looks at books. A lawsuit looks at liability.

If you bought inferior pads for GH¢292 million more than the market price of the quality ones, you do not need KPMG to tell you something is wrong. You need the Attorney General to issue a writ of summons.

Can Hon Haruna Iddrisu tells us exactly who is being audited? The pad? The supplier? The procurement officer who signed off on inferior goods? Or the persons the contract was outsourced to?

Because here is what the law actually says:

Under Section 92 of Act 663, the Public Procurement Authority can blacklist the supplier. The same section requires the Attorney-General to prosecute any procurement officer whose action causes financial loss to the state. Not "audit" but Prosecute.

If a procurement officer accepted substandard goods and authorised payment at inflated prices, that officer is personally liable to surcharge and prosecution.

So unless I’m missing something, an audit makes no sense to me. Respectfully!

Update from Court:

Assistant State Attorney, Esi Yankah, Esq., told the court that the witness had informed her she would be unable to appear, explaining that she had taken today and tomorrow off work due to ill health.

Presiding Judge Justice John Eugene Nyante Nyadu responded that the witness did not need to take leave from her workplace, since she was already on official assignment to represent her institution in court. He stated that the proper procedure would have been for the witness to formally apply to the court for permission to be absent.

The Judge further noted that there ought to have been some form of evidence to support the claim of illness, adding that even a WhatsApp message could have been presented to the court, as phone calls are not permitted as official notice.

He also remarked that counsel should have advised the witness to provide the necessary documentation to back her request.

Ms. Yankah, however, told the court that she had indeed advised the witness accordingly.

Counsel for the defence, Mr. Atta-Kyea, indicated that they would rely on the information coming from the Attorney-General’s office and would abide by the court’s decision.

The court subsequently adjourned the matter to the following dates:

25th February 2026 — 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

27th February 2026 — 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

13th March 2026 — 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
