In a key development ahead of the 2024 elections, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has presented Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh’s name to President Akufo-Addo as his running mate.
Dr. Opoku Prempeh, widely known as “NAPO,” is a prominent medical doctor and seasoned politician. He currently serves as the Member of Parliament for the Manhyia South constituency in the Ashanti region and holds the position of Minister of Energy.

Tragedy struck at Kasoa Krispo City when a speeding taxi killed Mr. Koranteng, a retired pastor from Gomoa Nyanyano.
Mr. Koranteng, who was over 60 years old, was on his way for a medical check-up when the incident happened.
Witnesses said the taxi, with registration number GX 8200-20, was overspeeding and hit Mr. Koranteng as he was crossing the road. He died on the spot, leaving the community in shock and grief.
It is alleged that the taxi driver was under the influence of alcohol. He was returning from his last trip from Kasoa to Liberia Camp after working all night. This raises serious concerns about road safety and the behavior of some drivers.
Mr. Koranteng was a beloved pastor in Gomoa Nyanyano, known for his dedication and service to the community. His sudden death has deeply saddened many people.
The Ghana Police Service at Kasoa is investigating the incident to understand what happened and ensure justice is served. This tragic event highlights the need for stricter traffic rules and enforcement to prevent such accidents in the future.

In a shocking revelation, Hon. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, MP for North Tongu and vocal critic of the controversial SSNIT hotels sale, has made another explosive allegation.
Ablakwa, who spearheads the “Hands Off Our Hotels” protest, claims that Prof. Kwaku Appiah-Adu, Senior Policy Advisor to Vice President Bawumia and Board Chair of La Palm Royal Beach Resort, is embroiled in a legal battle over prime land belonging to the Ghana Prisons Service at Roman Ridge.
According to Ablakwa, Prof. Appiah-Adu, already under scrutiny for allegedly running down La Palm Resort and facilitating its sale to government associates, now asserts ownership over parts of the Roman Ridge Borstal Institute lands, allocated to the Ghana Prisons Service since June 28, 1950. Ablakwa alleges that Prof. Appiah-Adu has even used national security operatives to demolish a protective fence erected by the Prisons Service.
“The showdown continues in court,” Ablakwa revealed on his social media, “with the Prisons Service and the Attorney General’s Department attempting to stop the all-powerful Bawumia advisor as they pursue an appeal.”
This latest accusation adds to a growing list of concerns about state asset sales under the current administration, including SSNIT hotels, parks, and beachfront properties. Ablakwa has vowed to escalate his resistance against what he terms “lootocratic schemes” both in and outside Parliament.
Former President John Mahama has promised major investigations and repossession of looted lands if he returns to power in January 2025. Meanwhile, Ablakwa calls for continued public vigilance and resistance, declaring, “State Capture shall be defeated!”
Stay tuned for further developments on this unfolding saga.
