NewsTranscript
00:00 Alright, so welcome back and time for us to go into what the papers are reporting this morning and
00:05 First day morning. I didn't expect to see my brother here, but yeah, he's here somewhere in Bora. Oh morning. I'm fine
00:14 Oh, yeah, I'm fine. I hope you're doing well. I'm good. I'm good
00:17 Once we see people we love it gives us a certain amount of energy, you know
00:22 All right
00:25 I have the daily graphic newspaper and I also have the daily guide. What do you have? I have the Chronicle and business fighter. Okay
00:32 This one
00:35 Yeah, it's a special story. Okay. I don't know if we can start with that. Let's start. It's from the Chronicle newspaper
00:40 Okay, and it's actually a story
00:42 I've not seen the name here. Okay, we see Adams
00:46 Fantastic job there. It has to do with the road network in
00:51 Western region. Okay, I credit it with that specific. We know this is a region that gives a lot to the
00:56 Finance of the country, but this is a road network there. It's at the center of the town
01:02 Well
01:07 Well, I think I have a better photograph. I don't know if they can capture it so well
01:12 It's so disturbing. I think I saw it on face and I think it's a good
01:17 Joke that a reporter has reported a past. Yeah, that's it is story
01:20 Yeah, you can have this in a
01:22 Capital where you have a whole lot of minerals being produced from there for the country and you know, I you know
01:28 I love this picture
01:30 It's because it tells that you see the truck there is called a convene my gun. Oh
01:37 Okay, so so we have it on on the camera on on the screen now
01:44 So the truck there is conveying bauxite bauxite if we had put the original picture on it you would have seen the color of
01:52 Material in the back is a bit reddish
01:56 And they are conveying this to the harbor. Really? Yes. Yes
02:02 Yes
02:02 Now the truck has broken down at the very bad spot in which area which area specifically is this is quesmenting
02:10 I see is that a center of the cruddy when you're getting to the center of the cruddy
02:14 But all the trucks that cut manganese and bauxite will have to use this this route before they get to the port
02:21 How old has this situation been because I am I wonder why?
02:25 Authorities will just sit allow this situation to deteriorate
02:29 For residents or people to complain before you move in the Rose Minister this this has been like this
02:36 I am sure to me. This will be more than six months 18 to a year if I'm more
02:42 Now before you get to this spot
02:45 There is a spot that has also deteriorated to to a very it's in a very terrible
02:50 For so this is not a lot more than a year. This is not there are other areas that have been captured
02:55 Okay, so let me just run as true. So let me
02:58 I'm gonna do a visual, you know recall of how terrible these roads are
03:05 unfortunately
03:06 The taqwa to a ground counter road is being constructed. So as for that we give kudos to the government
03:13 But as you enter a gunam contact
03:16 From a gunam contact all the way to taqra. The road is terrible very terrible
03:22 That's the only places that are much trouble that are okay. Okay. I'm not sure will amount to
03:29 even two or three kilometers
03:32 all the rest you meet bad spots on them and
03:36 the most terrible places are a
03:38 Good on contact to a body. Okay, very terrible
03:42 Abodi to a CIO even that is a bit a bit manageable from El Cielo to book raw
03:50 Very very terrible. I mean that's the place where the slightest
03:55 Breakdown of a truck can cut off the whole road
03:58 So they have to use the roads that that pass through the villages before they go
04:02 I see when it comes to that point these trucks are not able to cut the goods to the harbor
04:07 when you when you move from
04:10 you know from a power to a
04:13 Primal very terrible from a primal to questioning team very terrible from questioning to talk about it
04:21 Yeah, some places are terrible. So so, you know, is this the reward for what the region is giving the country?
04:27 Well, I of course rose many that's we are just appealing. This is so disheartening
04:31 I can't continue like this
04:33 This is something that we need to look into at least let's get the contractors
04:37 Work on this if you were to be doing your routine maintenance, I don't think the situation would have deteriorated up to this day
04:44 That's the point
04:45 it is this just one of the situations in the country move to Kumasi move to some parts of a cry here and
04:52 they move to the northern part of the country and it is really heartbreaking to say I am not sure that the
04:58 Regular maintenance thing is something that they do practice
05:02 When have you seen like a maintenance work being done on a certain road?
05:06 Yeah, look last time I said it's here and I'm I will probably go back to talk about it to check
05:12 There's this road that was constructed was begun under the Mahama time and it was completed and a coup for do okay
05:19 They are not a bypass a fantastic road, but the last time I went home it has started developing
05:25 Portables now I said here don't have guided to port wells
05:30 So they have dams on because highways will fail to work on that
05:34 The challenge they have always told us has money with financing. Yeah, this one is beyond your MC
05:41 This one is beyond the MC for no, no, it's a credit
05:44 Yeah, MC for a fear-consuming team is beyond exactly so we go to talk about it to the ones that are beyond exactly
05:52 So the Rose Ministry would have to see what they can do to assuage the situation there
05:56 There's another for me
05:58 I have seen some stories on the front page, but these are the big stories for me when it comes to health
06:03 It matters a lot and there's this
06:05 midwife
06:07 Margaret a co
06:09 at boson tree this is in the Ashanti region that we need to
06:13 Celebrate we need to celebrate her and this is what she has done. You know, there have been issues of
06:19 Traveling sending children especially from the rural areas to improve health facilities for health care and all that
06:28 No incubators at the district or the rural hospitals or clinics
06:33 But this nurse has been able to improvise a basket to be able to okay
06:39 You see it has a what you call the drips or whatever it is. Okay in the basket, okay
06:44 There's a drip in the basket there and there's some foam in it. So the child can rest
06:49 So well whilst they transport the child to the nearest hospital or healthcare
06:54 So it is an improvised what you call it
06:57 Incubator as well, and I think that I mean these are some of the people that we need to honorable health minister
07:04 You have to go to the name of the area is is the mayor st. Mary's Anglican clinic at a pink crap
07:10 Okay, the bus on tree district of the Ashanti region. We must celebrate so this woman wife
07:14 Running out of the country. Yeah, she's staying and staying apart. Yeah
07:20 We need to identify them was whilst she's doing her part
07:24 Yeah, the state must also do their part by ensuring that they are not here
07:28 Yeah, sure when you do that it serves as motivation motivation to others and I think it's a good movie
07:32 It has been reported by my good friend Richard also a child from the Ashanti region
07:37 Okay, chronicle and that's a very nice story that I think the health ministry
07:40 Mr. Quisade my menu and his people should look into but let's get to politics
07:46 The Chronicle captures John. So let me complete concluded with an appeal to yeah, the highways minister
07:54 Yeah, that has to do with the West. Yes look
07:57 This situation began not today
08:01 It's been like this for some months now if not up to a year and even over
08:06 You have to show the people of Western region that you care for them
08:12 It's not all that they do for this this country the contribution look the track that is that is stuck in this in this place
08:19 every day
08:22 Not less than 200 of these tracks use this route to cut either
08:27 bauxite or manganese to tackle the ports and
08:30 If the people who live there see all of this being taken from their region
08:34 You have no excuse to allow their roots to deteriorate to this level. It shouldn't be I
08:40 mean the way
08:43 The things are in the Western region. I mean where we have to say that things are happening
08:48 But the roads that are in terrible shape are also no good at all
08:52 We used to have the railways that was cutting manganese and bauxite today. The railways is
08:59 Almost non-existent everything is gone. And what shocked me most is when I saw that Abuja
09:05 Had launched their blue
09:07 their blue rail
09:09 Where today people can use train so I have a city of Abuja, please
09:13 I'm so shocked that we don't have it. Yeah as of now, we cannot even say we have a reliable
09:18 Can take you from Kumasi to Accra if it was working perfectly
09:23 It had been the case that some people can be
09:25 Coming all the way from Kumasi to Accra to work or Accra to Kumasi to work or even to Tamale because the train can go
09:31 Like one hour you are you are there just like someone traveling all the way from Amasama to
09:35 Kukumlemle here for two. Yes, so I think I drive it
09:38 We need you and we need to see if there was a proper train between Takradi and Accra
09:43 I would never have thought of living in Accra. No, no, no
09:47 I'll live in Takradi and work here and look at it. Look at us all of us have to come here, you know
09:52 Yeah, so so so I think that we need to be deliberate about some of these things
09:56 The road network once the the rail is off and we are using the road to cut the manganese and bauxite
10:04 Let's find a way to make the roads that use that we use in cutting these things very durable
10:10 Yeah, I was impressed when I went to Accra and I saw the road that they were constructing I pray it lasts
10:15 But who is the MP for this particular constitution?
10:20 That's my friend Prince Amidu. I think he has to make a case in the parliament when they resume from recess
10:26 He has to make a case talk about the bad nature of the road. Yeah
10:30 Remind governments about the contribution that they shouldn't be alone. Yeah
10:34 The caucus, you know, so from
10:38 Wassei Kropon
10:41 to
10:42 Takwa to a hunter west to casement into Takradi a fear second. It is you'll come together
10:49 You know even a mabua
10:51 Even though he has some very good rules
10:53 But I'm a boy honorable a mabua should join all the Western
10:57 Join and get the roots fixed. I think I must say that the second D Takradi road is being constructed
11:04 I'll be it's very slow pace, but it's been worked on. This is a very critical road
11:09 So let's also turn our attention to the mining companies, please. Let's also be responsible
11:14 The the weight of load you carry on your track can also exert pressure
11:20 Yeah, the road the road surface depression like you see there are the ends the potholes begin to come up
11:27 So I think that's the we should in as much as we are talking or calling on authorities to fix this the mining companies also
11:33 Be responsible. Yeah, but that is why yeah, we had the axle load
11:37 So the guys are the absolute what do they do?
11:41 So when we come to corruption, which is on the daily graphic probably we speak about exactly
11:45 So that's when we put people there to help make sure the country progresses. They do things that that really lead to it
11:51 Breaking apart one of the big stories here Mahama campaigns for easy ages voters to go out and register
11:58 We know the limited voters registration exercise is going on the former president through a Facebook life
12:03 Session appeal to Ghanaians to take advantage, especially those who don't have the voters ID card
12:09 You go for the first time and register so that at least they can be a hope for a better Ghana
12:13 Because everyone has a right to vote. You also have the power of the term and
12:17 There have been calls for extension of this exercise
12:20 may be for on
12:23 Unforeseen circumstances and another big story here has to do with illegal mining in forest reserves is exist an existential threat to Ghana
12:32 That's coming from the Forestry Commission, you know on the back of our
12:36 Documentary on say no to Gala. I'm say they issued a statement talking about how they have protected the forest reserves in the country
12:42 About 34 of them, but they are lacking logistics, but they are able to procure about thousand
12:48 Thousand pump action guns for their officers to go into the forest protect that we know it is not only the
12:55 mining that is threatening the
12:58 The forest reserve, but we know illegal log into is another thing there
13:02 Some of us have been raising concerns that why would you give permits for two people to go to?
13:06 already depleted forest to go under the guise of
13:09 Salvaging the premise they bring is salvaging. I remember when I was in the upper East region
13:14 2017 they get permits to no less than 15 companies to come to the northern part of the country to salvage rosewood
13:21 This rosewoods have been protected for a very long time
13:24 Then you push the companies under the guise of go to a forest and salvage the rosewood and they'll go there rather
13:31 Log them and that has been a challenge, but I think forestry commission. They've been doing so well just the challenges of
13:38 Their guards or personnel in which I've seen
13:41 Them assuring that they are going to step up the game to ensure that that is done
13:46 So John allot is a CEO forestry commission and then he's given this assurance MPP promised to probe super delegates
13:52 infractions comes with a picture of
13:54 Justin could you add as a general secretary, you know on the back of Alan's?
13:59 redrawal letter from the MPP race citing
14:02 flawed super delegates Congress
14:05 And he not having the assurance that going into November for election
14:09 He and his people were protected decided to redraw but he wants these issues to be addressed
14:15 So the party has responded to him and then indicated that they would look into it
14:20 They will probe them already a probe is underway by the disciplinary committee
14:23 We know that about five people in for the disciplinary committee such actions have been done
14:27 But the party is still asking for additional information from Alan Chamonti so that do we able to proceed and then have a balanced?
14:34 Report driver jailed for masterminding robbery of employer. That's
14:39 This how some people reward their employers
14:42 You your own employer who is giving you something to fend for your family and then you mastermind allegedly
14:49 Yeah, the report captured on the Chronicle news because it interesting
14:53 Well, let's do the daily graphic now and Alan's withdrawal will have consequences for the MPP according to political scientists
14:59 What was his argument here?
15:01 There's a school of thought that Allah may go independent
15:05 Oh, so if Alan goes independent
15:07 definitely who fetched the votes of the MPP and then the NDC and
15:13 Because he's coming from the World Bank in terms of votes for the MPP Ashanti region
15:17 It is going likely or more likely to affect the fortunes of MPP going to turn right?
15:22 Why why would he decide to go independent? That will be the dead end of his political career?
15:27 I think if Alan decides to go independent, I would advise Alan should go because I because that because if you go independent
15:36 Die hard party people who think that well
15:40 You cannot decide to take any sort of reaction when there the the elections do not go your way
15:48 We saw it in 2007
15:50 When he resigned and I've had people who say that he killed his political ambition when he resigned from the party in 2000 exactly
15:56 After the election exactly have you been able to study the results from that?
16:00 Do you guys been doing exactly that's why I say that 20 2007 till now look at even the latest contest
16:07 Yeah shows that as a problem
16:08 So if I were it is not a systematic problem in the party, but he has to work on his soul
16:13 So if I were Alan Charmantin, nothing should prick my mind that if I go independent I can never do anything
16:18 Because you go to independent to win, right?
16:20 You just don't want to add on to the numbers you want to win
16:22 But can you independence win when you look at the history is there how many independent candidates have made it in Ghana?
16:28 Is that police guy? He's and and and the thing is people should make it clear to Alan Charmantin that
16:33 His vote is not only dwindling in the special delegate Congress
16:37 Yeah, even when they opened it in the past elections when they had gone to me and a coup photo
16:43 He had suffered some reduction. So politically the results from the super delegates come
16:48 Appreciate it. You know, so what I'm trying to say is it signals or sends a message of even distrust
16:56 Within his own party party. So if you want to go independent the people refer is a oh even his own party members
17:03 Did he even endorse him at a super delegates level? These are highly?
17:06 I mean level-headed people who went in to vote. So these are the people who decide what happens in the party
17:11 They think there is a good material. So if he goes independent
17:13 That is the cat no used to play against people didn't accept it
17:18 So what would what be the assurance that he'll be a candidate?
17:21 Independent our advice against running
17:25 I think that to me I believe that it should step aside
17:29 It shouldn't align for now and watch the remaining aspirants do their thing
17:34 For a betterment of his political career. I know he has brighter fortunes ahead. So at least it should would he want to run?
17:41 anyway, I
17:44 Don't know after well probably if he would want to run again after all of these years, you know
17:51 If I were him, I'll be a godfather as I can never to even think about running to a flag bearer again
17:57 Sometimes there's power in you stepping behind
17:59 Yeah, and supporting young people to go so that the young people will see you as their father
18:04 No, when they will run to you when exactly you know, that's a stage is high. Yeah
18:09 So so that's a let's see how that goes now
18:13 Speak up against corruption. Sam Jonah rallies citizens and groups now
18:18 Statement says I'm Jonah has implored every citizen, especially politicians and public office holders to work
18:25 rigorously to uproot corruption in the society says I'm gonna said corruption and greed had
18:30 Eating deep into the fabric of the nation and young people were fast losing hope and dignity of labor
18:35 Delivering a thematic paper at the annual general meeting and conference of the pharmaceutical society of Ghana in Taqwa yesterday
18:42 He called on professional bodies and associations not to sit on the fence
18:45 But speak up against the ills and wrongs in society in the spirit of nation-building. So he cited the pharmaceutical
18:52 Society of Ghana you excited a Ghana by association all the civil society organizations to speak up journalists are not also
18:58 Exempted so the question I ask is that is it the media which have been considered as a watchdog of society?
19:06 That has failed or it is a systematic problem in our terrain here in the country
19:11 Or is a case that the leaders see that excuse me say as a people we are not serious in holding them accountable reason
19:19 Perception of corruption or even naked eye you see it. You see it just naked corruption
19:23 Whatever way you want to classify it
19:26 It's still happening in the country. I will not play our role
19:30 Do we need to go to an extra mark when it when it comes to corruption? I think two things have to work properly
19:38 The loss would have to work when someone is caught
19:42 Okay, he or she has to be dealt with severely to serve as a deterrent to other people
19:48 - is about a
19:50 Personal decision not to be corrupt. Yes, for example the boys the guys would put at the Wayne Bridge
19:56 I mean we're just saying it. Yeah, the accent the
19:59 Absolute people they sit there
20:01 Look on for tracks to overload. Yeah, and then they take 200 300 cities and allow tracks to pass by. What is that?
20:10 Also, I think this so so so I am thinking that if you in Burra decide that when they put you at that place
20:17 You would ensure that the right things are done. Let me just give even though it would be difficult
20:21 Let me just use a vivid side. Let me just use a simple analogy in the health sector
20:26 We have what we call management of health and prevention of health
20:30 That's why we have the preventive nurses
20:33 Yeah
20:33 And we have those who manage situation the those who are the hospital emergency nurses and all that
20:38 So just picture corruption to be like someone who is sick or a situation
20:44 Someone who is sick and has been sent to a hospital. Yeah, there's a nurse as a doctor
20:48 whoever
20:50 Taking care of the person trying to resuscitate the person trying to ensure that you stand on your feet
20:55 And then a situation whereby we have the preventive nurses who are more than as the public health nurses or the community nurses
21:02 ensuring that they tell the people that
21:04 Don't drink dirty water if you drink dirty water or swim in dirty water you get bilharzia or some health related
21:12 diseases, yeah, then the people are
21:14 Quotientized knowing what to do and what not to do and someone who is already at a hospital
21:20 Seeking resuscitation or the person is not under treatment to come back to normalcy
21:27 This is a state of corruption in the country here the loss
21:30 I just like someone in the hospital scenario that I'm giving and then the preventive side
21:35 Is how we can quotientize the mindset of the people corruption starts from you exactly
21:41 So so we force our politicians to be corrupt. Yeah, the last time I
21:45 Spoke about it. Even some people force journalists to be corrupt
21:48 You you go back to your constituency
21:52 The people are there. They even want you to diary allies
21:55 They want you to give money for their child's naming ceremony or whatsoever every social
22:01 Activity they want the politician to be part and you must donate
22:04 There's a classical example of an MP who lost an election because he failed to attend
22:09 Funerals and the people were peeved after that they voted and campaigned against him and when you are going for such garden
22:15 You must go with money
22:16 Some MPs cannot go home or public officials cannot go home because you need not to spend like no less than
22:21 500,000 cities per visit because if you get home the queue that is there you can't imagine so corruption is multifaceted
22:27 We must start from the mind constant unless the younger generation
22:32 Sometimes I look at my son and feel like so how would their generation be when they grow to our stage?
22:37 Would they look back and say my father was part of this? I mean generation. That is what I
22:42 think
22:45 For our children we should start to let them understand that what is not yours, you don't have to take it, you know
22:53 But I am also thinking that
22:55 Digitization may probably reduce corruption to an extent
23:01 Imagine if these axle load it was the process where digitized said that when the car comes to stand on it
23:07 The machine would tell if you are overload it will cost you to stop at a certain point. Okay, you know
23:13 If you are to go and register a company today, you sit in your home and you do everything online
23:19 You don't need to pay anybody for anything if you have to get your VATs certification
23:24 You sit online do it and print it. You know, you know that
23:29 Digitizing the way to go. I've seen that pre-mixed world. There's an attempt like yeah now now they have done
23:34 Well, let's see how that that works. You know, I
23:36 think with that
23:39 proper enforcement of the law and
23:41 Personal decisions young people deciding that we want to leave the world a better place for our kids
23:47 We probably make a headway
23:49 So if you are training your kids tell them that what I have not bought for you what is not yours is not yours
23:55 Don't envy it love what you have. Maybe that can take us somewhere. Anyway
23:59 There's another story in the graphic page 34 says policy expert advocate insurance funds for farmers this this thing
24:07 It came up insurance for farmers for farmers. It came up when I was in school
24:11 2010 there about when 20 20 23, isn't it? Yeah 13 years down the line. Are we saying?
24:16 Are we saying that we are able to what was the motivation?
24:19 So when the agri sector alone contributes over 60% to the growth of the country, that's what we're lying
24:24 So so I'm look and I know that there are some are great startups that are also
24:29 Using you know have an insurance for their farmers. How are they doing it?
24:34 Maybe people should be asking them to tell us how they do it. I know a company like
24:38 New Age are Greek solutions. They have product like in survival and all of that that they allow people to
24:46 Invest into mace farming and all of that now when you put your money in there it is insured
24:51 We should ask them how are they doing it so that we can probably expand it because we've been speaking about
24:56 Insurance for farmers for a very long time. Why is it that there is no company? No insurance company that's taking up this
25:02 It's because of the risk associated. Can we break it?
25:05 Can we find a way out of it?
25:06 Because if we do it would encourage a lot of people to take into farming and farming is the way we can create
25:12 Billionaires more billionaires for this country because it has the we have the capacity
25:18 But look at the vast land that we have
25:20 If you go to a northern part of the country, we have lands that are wasting
25:24 Look at the tunnel down irrigation down for instance
25:27 The number of acres that have been put to use is not even up to one third of it
25:31 If you go to the via dam same thing
25:34 There are bigger dams that you can even use for dry season farming the almighty Palo go down
25:38 That has also come into fruition could have also augmented farming
25:42 I'm just creating a national nationwide picture of how far if you go to a front place
25:46 I've been to most of them and you can you can see that potential is huge the potential
25:51 Yeah, but it just has to do with commitment. Yeah, our initiatives our policies
25:55 How are we going to ensure that we implement them to let her to ensure that we achieve this?
26:00 You go to the Asian Tigers like they were seeing the
26:04 Port and all those they are using a great to drive the economy
26:09 Why are we important rise from there when we have rice if you wouldn't have wrong with a house special rights?
26:13 You will every region. I mean that produces rice you get quality of rice
26:18 Yeah, an example is every rice and I have follies after steric and I can do this a sample of the local rise
26:25 I'm talking about that we can get to the market and then see how we can boost if you motivate the farmers
26:29 Getting them the issue and they know that was I'm working now
26:32 In future there is something that I can rest on when my bones become weak for me to go to farm show show
26:40 Ordinarily, I would have taken this story but it's because it's it's it falls in line with something
26:44 I've been discussing about a coban Ghana engages employees on volunteerism
26:48 in bra, would you consider how
26:51 CSR conscious a company is before you buy from them or you work for them as ever come back
26:58 That hasn't that I haven't it hasn't in the u.s
27:01 67% of people who buy from companies consider the CSR consciousness of the companies before they buy they buy
27:08 Okay, the corporate responsibility. Yeah
27:10 52% of employees consider how CSR conscious companies are before they work with them. I say exactly in Ghana
27:18 It doesn't work like that
27:20 Facebook and tell my young people have been telling me that even when I've stayed home for five years you think I'll consider
27:28 this year's
27:30 But it's something we need to consider because if we do that the nation stands to to gain
27:38 What a coban has done imagine if about hundred companies are doing the same? Yeah, you know, there's a lot we can achieve
27:45 So maybe it's about time
27:47 Parliament itself takes a look at enacting a CSR law that will make it binding on companies to undertake
27:54 You know CSR initiatives and even give hours
27:58 Mark hours for their employees to and to engage in CSR initiatives
28:02 so a company can decide to say okay, we are going into this community today to go and teach the kids there or
28:09 Motivate the kids or even you know, put something together and help look
28:14 I am there's this school in my community one of the communities there. It's called is fasten
28:19 Okay, when they read that when it rains it passes through the classrooms
28:23 I discussed with a bank there and they called me yesterday to say that the employees have decided to contribute from 50 cities upwards
28:31 Each to support us in constructing that that classroom. That is what we expect companies to be doing, you know
28:37 so in fact
28:39 Maybe it's something that we should we should we should look forward to and then see how we can we can I think the last
28:44 Before here is a business finder talks about business
28:46 see a school is seek private capital for increased efficiency and
28:50 Productivity gonna to be granted observer status in Pacific Alliance 120 awarded MTN scholarship
28:56 I think those are the stories making okay, but there's one important thing
29:00 I think we should also draw attention to
29:02 Though not captured in the newspapers, but it has to do with a spillage of the Bagri Dam
29:06 Okay, the authorities those who manage the Bagri down Sonabel in Burkina Faso
29:10 They have given an indication or communicated to the voter revolt or it is so Sonabel works like water with authority in Ghana
29:16 Okay, so they manage the Bagri Dam in Burkina Faso
29:19 So they have given a notice that they are going to spill the Bagri Dam
29:22 so those who are living around the Hoyt voter and these tributaries are expected to
29:28 Experience I mean discharge of water or overflowing water from from the dam that they are spilling and we should be anticipating that farmlands
29:35 Will be submerged
29:36 We hope that not more puts in place the rightful measures to a switch a switch a situation
29:42 No, he's a party's northern region and even possible
29:44 Upper West Region would be affected by this. We only hope that farmers along that line
29:48 Advised to move to higher grounds children should not I mean parents you ensure that their children
29:54 Well protected so that we can save life and and property
29:58 It's actually a sad situation when it gets to this season and then the dam is peeled
30:02 Unless you go there you have an aerial view of the situation you you you understand
30:08 The trauma the pressure that if people go through in times like this, okay. All right. Thank you very much
30:16 Let's complete with the daily guide newspaper. The front page says Ghana Columbia strengthen ties. It comes with a picture of
30:25 Vice president, dr. Luma
30:27 Mahmood Bamiya, I don't know
30:31 You have been thinking about
30:34 and the vice president for
30:36 Columbia France, yeah, my guys Mina and then
30:41 There's also the story here. Could you tell my cat readers threaten showdown?
30:48 And PP flag by aspirin balloting postponed and Alan drops from MPP race shocking now
30:55 Alan has broken our hearts Western Region coordinator says
30:59 Now Chris supporters of the former trade minister Alan Sherman ting in the Western Region said they were taking a back when news reached them
31:07 That mr. Chairman ting has withdrawn from the MPP presidential race. I like what you're trying to emerged
31:12 Who we mentioned after the superdelegates conference of the MPP to reduce the aspirin to five announcers withdraw from the flag bearer separation Tuesday
31:19 in a statement now the
31:21 Western record a decrease
31:23 Because in internal election, you know the enmity or destruction within is always greater than the
31:30 Distraction outside you show in politics the enemy inside is dangerous on the enemy outside. Oh, okay
31:37 So I understand the situation because how I did I went to push up how did I went to men?
31:42 Especially those who did not conduct themselves
31:44 Against their opponents using bad language against them. I can imagine how they'll be able to
31:51 patch up the differences and all the bats
31:53 Alan's resignation to some of us was not actually a surprise
31:57 Oh
31:57 I thought that because of what happened from the superdelegates Congress the man should take a bow so that at least going to November
32:04 The surety of he increasing his votes
32:07 Well, we're not clear. So I I think that his supporters you understand and it is you restrategize and then look for the way forward
32:15 Making their candidates more stronger and then you know
32:19 Making their party better ahead of the 24 elections. So you anticipated that he will yeah
32:25 Yeah, I already had that confirmation. I had that information earlier, but we're now waiting for the confirmation that he was not going to
32:33 continue with a with a race because of the turnaround in events the reported intimidation of his
32:39 Agents and then supporters in some parts of the country and all that as time goes on. Let's see how the pans out. Okay
32:48 Ghana blacks as we're playing the Central African Republic. I think today's Thursday. I think I've not actually been money monetary
32:55 Is that the qualifiers right?
32:57 People are suggesting that we give
33:02 You know, we we all applaud the stadium should applaud the IU brothers
33:07 For their service to the country last time. I saw I've seen a campaign like that people think that
33:13 we've been
33:16 always lambasting them without considering their contributions over the years to the national team and
33:22 Therefore we should celebrate them now then wait when they are no longer on earth. No one celebrates them
33:28 Yeah, so people are proposing that look before the game. That's all the spectators at the stadium should should start
33:34 Where are the plans? I think is in Kumasi, but but I mean
33:37 Understand why they may be playing it in Kumasi. Why must the love for the love the love is is bigger in Kumasi
33:45 They do that love can be
33:47 Ignited, you know in the early 2000s cortical they are playing much at this post in you
33:53 I remember my brother would tell me take me to a studio
33:55 Oh today they are playing then you see the all day the the guys at magazine will leave their work on a Saturday
34:00 Yeah, they are going to a studio. Yeah
34:02 The love that we have for the black stars, how can we transfer that to the local team?
34:10 So so let's see how today the the black stars will fare and I am anticipating a win
34:18 Maybe two one will win will be my but I hope that this campaign will go on so that all of us will celebrate their use
34:25 I mean we've we've look we've lambasted them for too long. We have not actually treated it
34:29 Let's let's let's celebrate them. They've done they've done enough for this country, but as to ask for local sport
34:36 I think that we should probably consult Harissa core and it is my habits means
34:41 How they did it look I was in the Western region
34:44 I was in a community a grand canter where I could not even travel to talk ready to watch the games
34:48 But radio stations were given us the vibe. I know Kotoko had a song. Yeah. Yeah fabulous for us and take a talk
34:55 Oh, okay. Oh come up in my pain baby. Yeah any time
35:00 Kotoko's gonna play how to fork. Yeah, or even when the Champions League or the Confederation
35:06 the the the the stations will play this song before the commentary can and look the sort of I
35:13 Don't know how their CEOs didn't dead but
35:16 There was a certain
35:19 Level of love spirit was high but today it is not there. It's gone today. Look
35:23 Do you know they played a hook or some?
35:25 What was the courtmen moved out? Come and explain to us what has caused?
35:29 Maybe one day we have to have this people here to discuss why the love died
35:34 Yeah, we've tried to bring back the love but it's not it's not coming back
35:37 I don't know what else we can do
35:39 But those days how we used to love our our our clubs, it's not the same. Yeah, it's not
35:45 Look those days when Kotoko comes to second D and they're going to play as a case or wise
35:49 The cast that will move a gun and contact a car axing just go to second it to go and watch the game
35:56 It's it's it's no longer there
35:58 And and that is taking away a certain economy because when they come food sellers
36:04 Sell a lot of food. Yeah, other people are selling other things get people to buy them. They make sales on that day
36:11 So would that love gone? It's not taking even the economy away, you know, and we're not thinking about along those lines
36:18 We have to look at how we can resuscitate this to bring back that economy for people to make ends meet
36:24 Because those days is a possible stadium. It was tough. That is not rotten
36:29 Exactly people will start selling from the junction to the stadium
36:33 Yeah, and they will buy because Kotoko is in town because Hartlepool is in town
36:37 Why are we not bringing back that love?
36:40 Why are we not getting it right the more you watch you watch the EPL and just around the stadium
36:45 Look at the sales that people do. Yeah, when people are watching the games, they are drinking coffee
36:50 They are drinking this people are selling they're making money food
36:54 The players are contributing to the UK economy. Yeah, look at a taxes
36:59 So so so I think the government itself should even consider that if it develops sports well in this country
37:06 It will generate a lot of revenue for it. Look the Saudi Arabian League
37:10 We are told that since Christiano came he has increased their revenue
37:14 From the game by what 120 percent or 600 something. I forgot to the but is over 100%
37:20 So imagine if they were making three billion dollars and they are making more than 100 percent. That's six billion
37:27 Can we think along those lines and have a strategy to revive the question is if you bring messy my favorite footballer to Ghana
37:35 To join Kotoko or Haas. Will we still get it?
37:38 Unless unless we work on it first, you know
37:42 Unless we work on it first, but sometimes some of these people bring a certain number of people to come and watch them
37:48 Imagine if you have a messy playing house of oak in Accra. Yeah, even the president will go and watch it
37:54 Oh, surely, you know, so imagine the monies that has a focal make on that day. So it's it's something that from government to us
38:02 The individuals we need to have a rethink about it to to understand that if our leg goes well
38:08 It does only go well for the teams. It goes well for all of us
38:12 Imagine if my brother is playing and the teams are making money from the proceeds
38:16 They'll pay him well and I get to benefit as well. That's true. Anyway, this is where we live it
38:21 We'll leave it for the sports guy because we've done a blaze coming your way with legends from the world of sports to stay with us
