    THE FOUR MUST BE FOUR.

    Can you imagine Ghana having a Dictator for 10years? It is good that Togbe is not in favor. I admire Togbe very well. He is not like some of our Paramount Chiefs. Two Four Year terms should be enough for our young Democracy.

    I don't know those who are agitating for extension of presidential terms in Ghana. What are these people thinking that the "Four-year term" should be extended to "Five years"? If it goes through, more extension will be called ...

    The global norm is five years. So its a lie to claim numerous countries have 4.

  • Ho Airport is Useless 3 days ago

    Why not six or seven? There is no "global norm". In many English speaking countries where it is "five," the constitution says "maximum of five". So, elections can be called at any time within the five years. In our case, ...

    I think Togbe is spot on here. The election of 2024 was like a jailbreak for Ghanaians. We were under extreme suffocation under a ruthless and overly arrogant man. I will never forget. Ghanaians really suffered under Akuffo A ...
