Sunyani Airport To Be Re-opened By End Of 2019 – Akufo-Addo

President Akufo-Addo has assured the chiefs and people of the Bono region that the Sunyani airport will be re-opened by the end of this year to facilitate movement between the region and other parts of the country.

The President gave the assurance in Sunyani during his meeting with chiefs in the Bono region at the start of his two-day working visit to the region.

Already, government has made available over Ghc48m for major rehabilitation works at the airport. The rehabilitation works include the partitioning of the terminal, giving the run-way a facelift, re-location of some offices and the provision of some other ultra-modern facilities that would enable the airport to be used by commercial airlines.

Responding to a request by the chiefs, President Akufo-Addo again assured that the Finance Ministry will soon make funds available to the Bono Ahafo Regional House of chiefs to facilitate the adjudication of the various chieftaincy disputes bedeviling the House and also to carry out effective research activities, among other things.

The President added that the Attorney-General had reached advanced stages of the Legislative Instruments (L.Is) for the establishment of Regional Houses of Chiefs in all areas affected by the creation of the new regions, adding that the L.Is will soon be laid before Parliament for consideration and approval.

The Minister of Road and Highways, Kwasi Amoako-Atta stated that this government will do everything possible to ensure that there is value for money in all road projects, saying “the days of shoddy road construction works are over.”

He announced that ten kilometers of Sunyani town roads will be asphalted by the end of March next year while several roads in the region have been awarded to contractors.

They include Berekum-Drobo, Berekum-Nsawkaw, Sampa town roads, Dormaa Ahenkro town roads as well as Wenchi town roads.

Food and Agriculture Minister, Dr Owusu Afriyie Akoto, for his part, said the proposed Tree Crop Development Authority will go a long way to boost the production of cashew, rubber and oil palm, among others.

Welcoming the President earlier, the Omanhene of Dwenem, Nana Bofo Bene IV, who is also the Vice-president of the Brong Ahafo Regional House of Chiefs thanked the President for implementing pro-poor policies such as the Free Senior High School programme and the restoration of nursing trainee allowance.

He however expressed concern about the poor nature of most of the roads in the region saying, out of the 572.4 kilometers of road in the region, 42% are not motorable and called for urgent steps to fix the roads.

He also called for the upgrading of some senior high schools in the region into the Grade A category of schools in the country.

President Akufo-Addo and his entourage also spent some time with students of the Sunyani Senior High School (SUSEC), St. James Seminary and Senior High School at SUSEC.

Addressing the students and staff of the two schools, President Akufo-Addo entreated the students to justify the huge investments being made in them by being studious and discipline.

He asked them to study hard to become “well rounded citizens” in future.

President Akufo-Addo later inspected work on the Sunyani-New Dormaa-Yawhima road project and the rehabilitation works currently underway at the Sunyani airport.

He also addressed a durbar of chiefs and people of Dormaa at Dormaa Ahenkro where he reiterated his commitment to fulfil all his electoral promises.

I Am More Fired Up To Do What I Do Best – Prof Gyampo

Professor Ransford Gyampo, a Political Science lecturer and Head of European Studies at the University of Ghana, Legon says he remains the same despite the public backlash and ridicule.

This was after he was caught in the “sex for grades” investigations carried out by BBC Africa Eye.

He was speaking this afternoon through phone interview on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme.

The outspoken Prof. Gyampo has accused some faceless individuals of being behind the viral video in order to disgrace him, tarnish his image and render him irrelevant in the eyes of the right-thinking Ghanaians.

Professor Gyampo, according to the BBC denied the allegations levelled against him, saying he was entrapped.

“The lady sent to entrap me is not my student and doesn’t attend University Ghana. We’ve been communicating for over a month. She told me she was reading Marketing and Journalism and undertaking a research on academic freedom,” the Prof. added.

He accused the BBC Africa Eye’s team of having some ulterior motive because they contacted him on the said video to which he sent them several letters indicating his innocence but they refused to include that in the documentary and concentrated only on his conversation with the lady.

The BBC Africa Eye in their report indicated they have been investigating the sex for grades incidents in premier universities in West Africa including the University of Lagos (UNILAG) for over a year now.

Judge Dismisses No-Deal Brexit Court Move

Lawyers for the government insisted Mr Johnson would comply with the law

 

A Scottish judge has dismissed a move to force Boris Johnson to comply with a law aimed at avoiding a no-deal Brexit.

Campaigners had wanted to ensure that the prime minister would write to the EU to request an extension if no deal is in place by 19 October.

They argued that statements made by the government showed that it could not be trusted.

But Lord Pentland said there could be “no doubt” that the prime minister had agreed to abide by the law.

As a result, he said there was no need for “coercive orders” against the UK government or against the prime minister.

And he said it would be “destructive of one of the core principles of constitutional propriety and of the mutual trust that is the bedrock of the relationship between the court and the Crown” if Mr Johnson reneged on his assurances to the court.

What was the case about?

Jo Maugham QC said there would be an appeal against the decision

 

The Scottish legal action was initiated by businessman Dale Vince, QC Jo Maugham and SNP MP Joanna Cherry.

They wanted the Court of Session, Scotland’s highest court, to rule on the extent to which Mr Johnson was bound by the so-called Benn Act.

The legislation was passed by MPs with the intention of preventing the UK leaving the European Union without a deal on 31 October.

It requires the prime minister to send a letter to the EU formally requesting an extension to the Brexit timetable if no deal is signed off by Parliament by 19 October – unless MPs agree to a no-deal Brexit.

The petitioners had argued that a series of public statements by the prime minster indicated that he was planning to break the law by refusing to ask for an extension.

Mr Johnson has said he would rather be “dead in a ditch” than ask for a delay.

However, government papers submitted to the court said that Mr Johnson would send a letter to the EU if a deal was not agreed by the deadline.

What did the court decide?

The legislation would compel Mr Johnson to write to the EU if there is not a deal

 

In his ruling, Lord Pentland said the UK government had accepted it must “comply fully” with the act and would not seek to “frustrate its purpose”.

As a result, he said there was “no proper basis” on which the court could decide that the government would fail to deliver on that undertaking.

The judge ruled that the UK government’s public statements were an expression of its “political policy” and were “clearly not intended to be taken as conclusive statements of the government’s understanding of its legal obligations”.

Lord Pentland said the prime minister and the government had given “unequivocal assurances” to comply with the 2019 Act.

As a result, he was “not persuaded that it was necessary for the court to grant the orders sought or any variant of them”.

What happens next?

Campaigners outside the Court of Session in Edinburgh

 

Those behind the petition said they would appeal against the ruling. It is thought that the appeal could be heard on Tuesday.

Jo Maugham QC said the decision had left Mr Johnson with “wriggle room”.

“I very much hope the court is right and that the government will – as the government has promised to do – abide by the law,” Mr Maugham said.

“But there is very real doubt in my mind that the government will act in accordance with the law and so tomorrow we will pursue our appeal against the decision of the Outer House to the Inner House of the Court of Session, Scotland’s highest court.”

Timeline: What’s happened with the EU letter case?

• 4 September – MPs back a bill aimed at blocking a no-deal Brexit on 31 October. The so-called Benn Act says Boris Johnson has until 19 October to either pass a deal in Parliament or get MPs to approve a no-deal Brexit.
• 4 October – The Court of Session in Edinburgh starts to hear a case from Remain supporters who want a legal guarantee that if there is no deal on Brexit Mr Johnson will write a letter to the EU requesting an extension to the deadline.
• 4 October – During that hearing papers are lodged at the court saying the prime minister will send the letter to the EU.
• 7 October – Judge Lord Pentland dismisses the case saying there is “no doubt” that the PM accepts he will comply with the requirements of the act and send the letter in the event of a no deal.

What is the letter Boris Johnson would have to write?

“Dear Mr President,

The UK Parliament has passed the European Union (Withdrawal) (No. 2) Act 2019. Its provisions now require Her Majesty’s Government to seek an extension of the period provided under Article 50(3) of the Treaty on European Union, including as applied by Article 106a of the Euratom Treaty, currently due to expire at 11.00pm GMT on 31 October 2019, until 11.00pm GMT on 31 January 2020.

I am writing therefore to inform the European Council that the United Kingdom is seeking a further extension to the period provided under Article 50(3) of the Treaty on European Union, including as applied by Article 106a of the Euratom Treaty. The United Kingdom proposes that this period should end at 11.00pm GMT on 31 January 2020. If the parties are able to ratify before this date, the Government proposes that the period should be terminated early.

Yours sincerely,

Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”

Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte Reveals He Has Autoimmune Disease

Foreign

By RIDROZAY | 8th October 2019

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has disclosed that he suffers from a rare autoimmune disease.

 

During a visit to Russia over the weekend, the 74-year-old who became president in 2016 told a Philippine community that he suffers from myasthenia gravis, which causes one of his eyelids to droop.

 

‘One of my eyes is smaller. It roams on its own,’ he said, according to a transcript released Sunday by his office. ‘That’s myasthenia gravis. It’s a nerve malfunction. I got it from my grandfather.’

 

This comes after senior aide Senator Christopher ‘Bong’ Go addressed rumours surrounding his health, saying ‘it’s nothing serious,’ adding the president is ‘conscious of his health’.

 

According to the US National Institutes of Health, the condition causes muscle weakness, and can result in drooping of eyelids, blurred vision as well as weakness in one’s extremities.

The University of Lagos has announced the shut down of the ‘Cold Room’, where lecturers reportedly harass students sexually.

 

This was disclosed by Taiwo Oloyede, the Principal Assistant Registrar (Communication Unit) of the university. The ‘Cold Room’ was mentioned by a lecturer of the school, Boniface Igbeneghu, who was caught on video sexually harassing an undercover journalist who posed as an admission seeker.

 

Igbeneghu, in the BBC undercover documentary, described the secret place where lecturers meet to “touch students breast” at the staff club of the university.

 

“They call the place cold room,” he said. He then explained that female students must pay to have good grades. “The so called ‘Cold Room’ is a Functions Room that may have been abused because this is a deviation from the purpose for which it was created (meetings, seminars, events, etc)” the university spokesperson said.

 

Oloyede also confirmed that Mr Igbeneghu had been suspended.

Naked Woman Climbs The Roof of A Cathedral And Straddles Statue For More Than 4 Hours

Entertainment Gists

By RIDROZAY | 8th October 2019

A naked woman climbed on a statue on a cathedral roof and stayed there in full glare of the public for four hours before authorities removed her.

 

The unnamed woman was seen standing, stretching, and straddling a statue on the roof of the St Patrick’s Cathedral St Ignatius Academy building in Fort Worth, Texas on Friday, October 4. A SWAT team was sent to attempt to talk the woman down.

 

A Fort Worth police spokesman, Tracy Carter, said authorities do not know why the woman climbed the cathedral naked.

 

Carter added: “Negotiators tried to keep her calm, go in there, and get her off the building.”

 

First responders were lifted toward the woman on the roof in a crane. They tried to reach their hounds out to take hold of the woman, but she swatted them away, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported.

 

 

After a while, the woman reached toward one of the first responders, who grabbed the woman and held onto her long enough for firefighters to pull her onto the platform.

 

The woman was taken to a nearby hospital in an ambulance. Authorities said they suspect she was suffering from a mental health crisis, for which she will reportedly receive treatment.

‘A Significant Proportion of Nigeria’s Prosperity is Concentrated in The Hands of A Few People’ – President Buhari

President Buhari has said that a significant proportion of Nigeria’s prosperity today is concentrated in the hands of a few people.

 

He said those few people are currently living primarily in four or five states including the Federal Capital Territory. President Buhari said this at the opening session of the 25th Nigerian Economic Summit held in Abuja.

 

He said while only five states had most of the wealthy people, the remaining 31 states have about 150 million people waiting for better opportunities to thrive.

 

The President said a prosperous society is one where the majority of its citizens have an acceptable standard of living and a decent quality of life. He said his administration understood the need for Nigerians to have a better lifestyle adding that this was why measures have been put in place to reduce the level of unemployment and poverty.

 

‘‘Today, many mistake prosperity with wealth. They are not necessarily the same. Experts and analysts explain economic trends by making references to indicators of wealth. Wealth, however, in its simplistic form, is money or other assets.

In recent years, global events have shown that when a society and its leaders are driven and motivated by these alone, the ultimate outcome is a divided state of severe inequalities. But a prosperous society is one where majority of its citizens have an acceptable standard of living and a decent quality of life,’’ he said.

The President also used the occasion to affirm that in addressing population growth, security and corruption matters in developing economies, policies and programmes must focus on promoting inclusivity and collective prosperity.

‘‘Nigeria is a country with close to 200 million people living in 36 states and the FCT. A significant proportion of Nigeria’s prosperity today is concentrated in the hands of a few people living primarily in four or five states and the FCT. Some of the most prosperous Nigerians are here in this room.

‘‘This leaves the remaining 31 States with close to 150 million people in a state of expectancy and hope for better opportunity to thrive. This, in the most basic form, drives the migratory and security trends we are seeing today both in Nigeria and across the region,” he added.

Tina Lawson Breaks Silence On Ex-Husband Mathew Knowles’ Breast Cancer Diagnosis

Tina Knowles has broken her silence on her ex-husband Mathew Knowles’ breast cancer diagnosis.

 

Earlier this month, 67-year-old Mathew Knowles, who is the father of Beyoncé and Solange opened up about his stage 1A diagnosis and the ways in which men can also be predisposed to breast cancer in an interview with Michael Strahan Good Morning America.

 

The former Destiny’s Child manager is currently cancer free after having “three lymph nodes” removed

 

“I’m grateful to be cancer free. They found this early and they took out three lymph nodes. I’m good. I’m very fortunate. Early detection, that’s the key.”

 

He added: “I’m looking about January time to have the other breast removed just being proactive and reducing the risk.”

 

Mathew also revealed he found out that there is a history of breast cancer in his family. He said: “Breast cancer has been prevalent in my family.

 

“My mother’s sister died of breast cancer, my mother’s sister’s two and only daughters died of breast cancer and my sister-in-law died in March of breast cancer with three kids – a nine, 11- and a 15-year-old – and my mother-in-law had breast cancer.

 

“So breast cancer has been all around me. My wife’s mother has breast cancer, too.”

 

His two celebrity daughters, Beyonce and Solange were tested after their dad found out he was a carrier of the BRCA2 gene. But the result showed negative.

 

With the report that mutated BRCA2 gene can put men at higher risk of developing prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer and melanoma, Mr. Mathew is currently having more tests to check his overall health as

 

He explained: “Now what does having a mutation on BRCA2 mean for a man?

 

“You have a higher risk of getting breast cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer or melanoma … I’m still getting test results back.

 

“I got an MRI for pancreatic cancer and my pancreas and liver are fine. My dermatologist removed two moles – both of which came back benign for melanoma. I got an MRI on my prostate a week ago, but we’re still waiting on the results.”

 

While attending the opening of Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta with her husband, actor Richard Lawson,  Tina commented on her ex-husband’s battle with breast cancer.

 

“Thank God he [discovered] it very early on, and he is going to be fine. I’m [calling] it,” his ex-wife told ET.

 

Tina Knowles and Mathew Knowles were married for over thirty years before divorcing in 2011. The pair are now happily re-married.

Foursquare Gospel Church Suspends Sex-For-Grade UNILAG Lecturer, Boniface Igbeneghu

Entertainment Gists

By RIDROZAY | 7th October 2019

Authorities of the Foursquare Gospel Church have suspend one of its pastors, Dr Boniface Igbeneghu, a senior lecturer at the University of Lagos, Akoka, who was caught on camera asking a ”17-year-old prospective student” for sex.

 

BBC released a documentary earlier today chronicling the sexual harrassment female students face in two notable universities in West Africa, the University of Lagos and The University of Ghana. Igbeneghu was caught on tape demanding for sex from a 17-year-old ”prospective”  female student who was actually a Nigerian undercover reporter.

 

In a statement released this afternoon, the National Secretary of the Foursquare Gospel Church, Ikechukwu Ugbaja, said appropriate measures would be taken against Inegbeghu.

The statement reads;

 

“The attention of the leadership of the Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria has been drawn to a video clip trending on social media platforms titled, ‘Sex for grades: Undercover in West Africa Universities – BBC News’ wherein a lecturer at the University of Lagos named Boniface Igbeneghu, also described as a pastor in Foursquare Gospel Church, was allegedly involved in sexual misconduct with some female students of the university.

“The general public is hereby informed that as holiness and Bible-believing church, we do not condone such heinous and unscriptural acts among our ministers. We totally dissociate ourselves from the purported conduct of Dr Igbeneghu and promise to take appropriate measures as soon as the ongoing investigation is concluded.

“Meanwhile, the pastor in question has been asked to step down from all ministerial assignments.”

CSE: Calm down, no LGBT agenda in curriculum

President Nana Akufo-Addo has stated emphatically, there will be no introduction of any subject that will negatively affect the moral upbringing of children.

Addressing members of the St. Cyprains Anglican Church in Kumasi, the President said it is untrue that his government intends to introduce the much-maligned Comprehensive Sexuality Education in public schools.

Conservative groups have been alarmed at the supposed introduction of CSE, believed to subtly condition pupils to explore LGBT lifestyles.

The Ghana Education Service and the Education Ministry have denied it. But it has not stopped further questioning of government’s motives.

The Information Ministry announced the President would be meeting members of the clergy to bring clarity to the matter.

Speaking to a congregation in Kumasi, Ashanti Region, the President urged Ghanaians to ‘calm down’.

The President said as a Christian, his faith will not permit him to expose pupils to immoral teachings.

The President said the focus of his education policy remains free Senior High School which removes financial barriers to education at the second cycle level. He said the government is also focused on improving the quality of education in Ghana.

He asked Ghanaians to pray that God grants him wisdom in steering the affairs of the country.

The President is expected to commence a tour of the Bono and Ashanti Regions from Monday, October 7.

Asuboni flood victims yet to receive relief items – NADMO

Two days after being displaced by floods, some residents of Asuboni Rails in the Kwahu West Municipality of the Eastern Region, are yet to receive relief items from the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO).

According to the Director of the Eastern Regional NADMO, Kwame Appiah Koduah, his office is currently out of stock of items, therefore they are waiting on a timely response from the head office in Accra.

“We are working around the clock to deliver the items. As at now we don’t have stock at the regional secretariat but we have sent the request to Accra. Hopefully, between tomorrow and the following day, we will receive a positive response,” he said.

He assured the victims of calm and security.
“We have taken care of all those things as at now. There is the presence of security and we hope that the needs of the people will be attended to immediately,” he added.

Two days ago, a downpour caused some 1,200 residents of Asuboni Rails in the Kwahu West Municipality of the Eastern Region to be displaced following the heavy rainfall.

The 7-hour downpour destroyed some 50 homes forcing residents to take refuge in a church building.

Flooding is an annual problem and a key source of human vulnerability in the country.

The perceived and actual causes of flood hazards have come under tremendous debate in recent times.

Studies carried out on flood vulnerability in the city have given varied attributions to their frequent occurrences. .

Though some people tend to blame the government for the floods, stakeholders and civil organizations have asked citizens who discard refuse into drains, throw rubbish from moving vehicles, abandon construction waste to gradually find its way into drains, and build houses in waterways to desist from these acts to help curb the recurrent problem.
