  WE HAVE GOT THE MEN!!!!!!!!
  Author: Tijani, Aboabo mkt, Tamale ——- Dr Tony Aidoo said the NDC's problem is Dr Bawumia. He said NDC does not have competent men to counter Bawumia's brilliance. When Bawumia speaks, NDC needs over 25 people including Adongo, Fiifi kwetey, Mona Quartey, Ato Forson, Bernard Mornah, Jinapor, Jane Opoku Agyemang, Kwasi Pratt, John Mahama, John Gatsi, Franklin Cudjoe of IMANI, Rickett Hagan, Ablakwa, Ofosu Kwakye and many more to look for figures to counter Bawumia. Dr Tony was right.

  @Prince KWASIA ADADE...!!!!!!!!! Odwan ba m3333........ can you seen how your SMELLY KYEBI COW DUNG...NANA AKUFFO ADDO has totally shredded this beautiful country?? Akuffo -Addo's father saw the academic hopelessness in his son, that is why he didn't worry himself at all with his education. He just walked him to the Kinbu Government School near Tudu, the DEN and Headquarters for wee smoking in Ghana, and left him there. The very next year of being at Kinbu, our stupid and demented Akuffo Addo became a heavily addicted wee smoker, causing him to fail so miserably at Legon with a shameful 3rd class certificate in 1968. As for the UK, he was sacked from all the three schools he attended for non-permance. That is how he ended up being AN APPRENTICE LAWYER...!!!!!!!!

  Ghanaians, after gaining a lot of money and building a mansion in Accra or Kumasi, if you don't think of building a good mansion in your hometown for yourself and your relatives, somewhere in the districts, then I don't know what to say of you. What would you do with your money? In a certain constituency, no one knows the MPs house o! No one knows the minister's mansion. Does he really hail from the constituency? If the MP or minister hasn't thought of building a house or mansion in the constituency, then why would he think of tarring a road or building a hospital. Ghana fo), yen hwe yie!

  How much does 1 km of asphalted road cost today? Some years ago they said that 1 km of tarred road cost Ghana $400,000 USD, which was the highest in West Africa. To minimize traveling time and the axle load on our roads, we must have a fleet of safe smaller planes that passengers can fly to our local airports like the Wa Local Airport. The smaller planes will charge a smaller amount than the bigger planes that ply the Accra-Kumasi route. We must also renovate and extend the railway lines linking key cities in Ghana.

  THE STATE OF LEADERSHIP IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT
  
  Effective leadership and management are crucial in local government, significantly impacting public sector performance ¹. Here are some key points about the state of leadership in local government:
  
  - Leadership Quality: While local government leaders recognize the importance of leadership quality, only 67% consider their senior leadership effective ¹.
  - Challenges: Low morale, limited performance management, and inadequate recruitment are significant challenges, with only 45% of leaders confident in their organization's ability to attract talent ¹.
  - Improvement Recommendations:
  - Focus on management and leadership quality ¹.
  - Develop a 10-year workforce strategy ¹.
  - Establish a leadership academy ¹.
  - Diversify the workforce ¹.
  - Facilitative Leadership Model: This model, which involves collaborative and facilitative leadership, is effective in local government, especially for councils/boards ².
  - Best Practices: Consensus building, cooperative relationships, clarity of responsibility, and addressing citizen expectations are essential for effective local government leadership ².
  
  These points highlight the need for effective leadership and management in local government, as well as strategies for improvement.
  
  In Ghana, the local government sector faces challenges with accountability, which hinders effective service delivery. To address this, appointing indigenous individuals to head district assemblies can promote accountability in several ways:
  
  1. Local knowledge and understanding: Indigenous individuals possess in-depth knowledge of local customs, challenges, and needs, enabling them to make informed decisions that benefit the community.
  2. Accountability to the community: As members of the community, indigenous leaders are more accountable to the people they serve, ensuring that their actions align with community needs and expectations.
  3. Cultural sensitivity: Indigenous leaders can navigate complex cultural dynamics, fostering inclusivity and ensuring that local governance respects and reflects the community's values and traditions.
  4. Improved transparency: With a deeper understanding of local context, indigenous leaders can identify and address potential corruption and mismanagement, promoting transparency in governance.
  5. Enhanced participation: Indigenous leaders can encourage broader community participation in decision-making processes, ensuring that diverse voices are heard and represented.
  
  By appointing indigenous individuals to head district assemblies, Ghana can strengthen local governance, promote accountability, and ultimately improve the lives of citizens at the grassroots level.
  
  Here's a more detailed explanation:
  
  Benefits of Indigenous Leadership in District Assemblies
  
  1. Cultural Competence: Indigenous leaders understand local customs, traditions, and values, enabling them to navigate complex cultural dynamics and make informed decisions that respect community norms.
  
  2. Community Trust: As members of the community, indigenous leaders are more likely to earn the trust of local residents, fostering a sense of ownership and cooperation in governance.
  
  3. Local Knowledge: Indigenous leaders possess in-depth knowledge of local challenges, needs, and resources, allowing them to develop targeted solutions that address specific community problems.
  
  4. Accountability: Indigenous leaders are more accountable to the community, as they are part of the community and must answer to their peers and neighbors.
  
  5. Improved Service Delivery: With a deeper understanding of local needs, indigenous leaders can prioritize and deliver services more effectively, enhancing the overall quality of life for community members.
  
  Challenges and Opportunities
  
  1. Capacity Building: Indigenous leaders may require training and capacity-building programs to enhance their governance and management skills.
  
  2. Resistance to Change: Some community members may resist changes introduced by indigenous leaders, highlighting the need for effective communication and stakeholder engagement.
  
  3. Balancing Traditional and Modern Governance: Indigenous leaders must balance traditional practices with modern governance principles, requiring a nuanced understanding of both.
  
  4. Empowering Women and Minority Groups: Indigenous leadership offers opportunities to empower women and minority groups, promoting inclusive and representation in governance.
  
  Case Studies and Examples
  
  1. Ghana's Decentralization Policy: Ghana's decentralization policy has led to the creation of district assemblies, providing opportunities for indigenous leadership to emerge.
  
  2. Successful Indigenous Leaders: Examples of successful indigenous leaders in Ghana, such as traditional authorities and community leaders, can serve as models for effective governance.
  
  3. International Best Practices: Studying international best practices in indigenous governance, such as in Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, can provide valuable insights for Ghana.
  
  By examining these aspects, we can better understand the potential benefits and challenges of appointing indigenous individuals to head district assemblies in Ghana, ultimately strengthening local governance and promoting accountability.
  
  Would you like me to expand on any of these points or provide more information?
