Today has been a tough one. For my Constituents and largely residents of the Greater Accra and Volta Regions. The flooding was devastating, and the damage may never be fully recovered from. My heart really goes out to those whose properties, homes and livelihoods have been destroyed. We must, however, have a really frank conversation as a Country. Buildings in waterways, over silted drains, poor town planning, irresponsible disposal of garbage, sand winning activities, the list is endless. As elected officials and citizens, we are responsible for the mess we are in as a Country. Tough decisions MUST be taken irrespective of who is affected. Failure to do so will see us all pay a heavy price in the near future. I am grateful to the team from NADMO Ghana, the Ghana Navy, and my District Chief Executive, Hon. Raphael Uriel Nartey, who worked tirelessly from 2am to save lives and property. There's more rain on the way. We need to brace ourselves and prepare. Stay safe, folks. For God and Country.

Today, I visited the Accra Digital Centre to assess the extent of the damage caused by yesterday’s floods. It was heartbreaking to witness the impact on businesses, innovators, entrepreneurs and the many young people whose work has been disrupted. My thoughts are with everyone affected, and I sincerely hope for a swift recovery. The Accra Digital Centre is our premier hub for startups and young innovators. We also run a learning centre as part of the One Million Coders Programme. The damage to equipment and infrastructure is severe and will require substantial resources to get the Hub back to full functionality. I have assured the affected businesses and the Centre's management that we will engage with the relevant stakeholders to support recovery efforts and explore practical measures to reduce the risk of similar incidents in the future. To everyone still dealing with the aftermath of the floods, please continue to stay safe as the rains persist. Let us all do our part to keep our environment clean and our drains free from waste. For God and Country.🦁🇬🇭

This year, I have chosen peace. In the face of provocation, peace. In the face of attacks, peace. In the face of baseless accusations, peace. Even in the face of an AI prompt, peace. At worst, a smile. A smile that says a thousand words. Peace. Shalom! 🦁🇬🇭

Earlier this morning, I took part in the graduation ceremony of the The University of Law at the Barbican Centre. I enrolled for the program in 2023 and completed in 2025 after taking a hiatus in 2024 during the election campaigns. A pretty challenging endeavour as I combined the multiple phases of my life. The Masters of Law in Professional Legal Practice qualifies me as a Solicitor of England and Wales. I hope this inspires someone out there to pursue any dream that they have deferred. You never know what you can achieve until you start. Thanks to the Lord Almighty, my wife, family and friends for all the support and prayers during this phase of my life. The life of a lifelong learner! On to the next pursuit. 🦁🇬🇭

This past weekend, the Cyber Security Authority Ghana, in collaboration with the Greater Accra Regional Command and the CID of the Ghana Police Service, struck a double blow against cybercriminals. In the first operation across three locations around Sakumono, a sophisticated SIMbox operation was dismantled. Three Nigerian nationals, along with a Ghanaian landlord, were arrested for their role in the operations. In a second operation in Vakpo in the Volta Region, a 3-member syndicate of Ghanaians engaged in impersonation, sextortion and MoMo-related fraud was busted. The syndicate had chosen to impersonate the Minister for Communications, Digital Technology and Innovations - my good self - and defraud members of the public. They have all been processed for Court and will be made to face the full rigours of the law. Once again, we sound the caution: Ghana is a hospitable nation, but be assured that if you choose to engage in cybercrime, we will track you down, arrest you, and make you face the full rigours of our legal system! For God and Country! 🦁🇬🇭

The world is waking up to the challenges and effects of social media platforms and adult content sites on children. Ghana CANNOT be left behind. A responsible government works in the interest of current and future generations. Decisive action is the test of true leadership. 🦁🇬🇭

Yesterday, at the public hearings of the Public Accounts Committee of Parliament, I asked a very simple Public Interest Question of the Commissioner-General of the Ghana Revenue Authority, Reverend Amishaddai Owusu-Amoah. My very simple question was which year did he attain the age of 60. Boom! Drama began. My Colleagues on the NPP side got upset with my question and a 90 minute stand off ensued including a mysterious 'fault' with the PA system . After the 90 minute break, I manage to get a response from him and I am allowed only one follow up question by the Chairman. That question was if the Commissioner-General had a valid contract to remain at post. He answered that for the past twenty seven (27) months, he has occupied the position without a contract. Now for those wondering why I asked these questions, here are the issues; 1. Rev. Dr. Ammishaddai turned 60 years in October 2021, twenty seven (27) months ago. 2. Per the Public Service Commission of Ghana regulations, anyone above the age of 60 can be maintained with a 1/2-year contract with the possibility of an extension of another year. 3. Since October 2021, Rev. Dr. Ammishaddai has been at post and carried out functions as the Commissioner-General of the Ghana Revenue Authority without a contract. He has signed contracts like the dubious $100 million SML sweetheart deal with the approval and support of Ken Ofori-Atta. 4. Rev. Dr. Ammishaddai replaced Mr. Kofi Nti as Commissioner-General when the later still had 18 months of his four (4) year contract outstanding. The reason his contract was terminated was that he had turned 60 years. 5. The question we need answers to is why Ken Ofori-Atta has kept his darling Rev. Dr. Ammishaddai at post for another twenty seven (27) months without a contract? 6. The same Ken Ofori-Atta told Parliament that President Akufo-Addo had given instructions that contract extensions beyond the age of 60 would cease except in exceptional cases where the skill of the individual in question is unique and not readily available. What skill does Rev. Dr. Ammishaddai have that is unique and for which reason the laws of the country have been broken? 7. Rev. Dr. Ammishaddai cannot and should not be allowed to continue his stay in office even one day longer. There must be a forensic audit of his actions in the past 27 months to ascertain what damage his illegal stay has caused the tax payer. I would pursue this matter to its logical conclusion. For God and Country. 🦁🇬🇭 #LionBorn #HyeWonHye #TaL3mba

The very people who said my words were justification for these attacks by two 'national security' operatives today are slapping a policeman who was simply doing his job? Hmmmm. This life is truly a cycle. We pray for long life and good health. Cheers. 🦁🇬🇭

Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia How did you feel seeing the failure of the system you hurriedly went to commission? Rushing to prove a point leads to a bad crash. When did they carry out UAT on the system after deployment? Anyway, when the air blows, we all see the backside of the cockerel. Please push the gate hard, it would open wae. 🦁😂

The rain last weekend caused great discomfort at Ahwiam on the Old Ningo-Mangotsonya stretch. I am happy that, working with the contractor, Messrs IB Maigida, and my proactive DCE, Raphael Nartey, we have taken remedial action to ease the challenges. I am sure we will work with the Ministry of Roads to expedite the completion of the project and other road projects currently underway in the Constituency. For God and Country. 🦁🇬🇭

Yesterday's rainfall wreaked severe damage on the diversion around a bridge in my hometown of Ahwiam. The road is currently under construction, and a new bridge is being constructed to replace the failing one. The contractor had created a diversion as an interim measure, which was flooded. Last night and this morning, I engaged with the contractor, and this afternoon, remedial work commenced to address the issue. I will continue to work with the contractor and the Roads Ministry to expedite the road's completion. I remain committed to working with my District Chief Executive to address challenges expeditiously. Our focus remains on producing results. For God and Country. 🦁🇬🇭

I made a promise on the 27th of December 2023, as quoted in the tweet below. The pledge was to deal decisively with the rot at the National Sports Authority under the leadership of Prof. Peter Twumasi. Yesterday, he appeared with his team, and as promised, I carried out my civic responsibility of oversight as a member of the Public Accounts Committee. I remain committed to holding public officials to the highest standards of accountability. Our Nation is in need of real help, walahi! 🦁🇬🇭

Today was Day 1 of the rollout of courses under the #OMCP. I am excited about the number of young Ghanaians who logged in online and visited our learning centres in all 16 Regions today. There were challenges in some locations, but the team is working around the clock to address them as they arise, and I am hopeful that by the end of the week, we will be fully operational. This remains a huge investment in the people of our Country by John Dramani Mahama. I am humbled and privileged to play a part in this mega project. If you haven't signed on yet, get on board now. For God and Country. 🦁🇬🇭
