A theological reflection circulating online has reignited discussion about how Christianity, Islam and Judaism interpret the nature of divinity and the role of Jesus within monotheistic tradition. The exchange between a Muslim and a Christian questioner illustrates fundamental differences in understanding God's relationship to humanity, with Christians viewing Jesus as divine incarnation, while Muslims regard him as an honored prophet and Jews await a messiah yet to arrive.
The commentary argues that despite doctrinal divergences regarding Jesus, all three Abrahamic faiths share belief in one supreme creator and maintain scriptural emphasis on unity. Rather than focusing on theological disputes, the author suggests adherents should...
Food commodity prices have collapsed across Ghana, with the agricultural hub of Ejura experiencing severe market disruptions stemming from government imports and currency fluctuations. Large quantities of rice, maize and cowpea brought in during 2024 to address drought-related shortages reached markets as the Mahama administration took office, eliminating the need for urban traders to travel to production zones for bulk purchases. The cedi's strengthening from 18 to approximately 10 against the dollar has simultaneously discouraged cross-border buyers from Togo, Burkina Faso and neighboring countries who previously benefited from favorable exchange rates.
Agriculture Minister Eric Opoku has directed the National Buffer Stock Company to...
African nations risk losing control over their scientific direction as external funding sources dictate research priorities and educational frameworks across the continent, according to analysis highlighting the tensions between donor support and intellectual independence. Universities increasingly depend on Western governments and international organizations to finance STEM programs, creating situations where grant availability determines which problems receive attention rather than local needs driving inquiry.
The reliance extends beyond economics into knowledge hierarchies that position African researchers as data gatherers while foreign collaborators control project design and publication rights. Indigenous expertise often...
The opposition New Patriotic Party has accused the Mahama government of failing to address illegal mining operations effectively despite recent enforcement efforts. Communications Director Richard Ahiagbah told Channel One TV that galamsey activities have intensified since the administration took office, calling for nonpartisan cooperation among communities, traditional leaders and civil groups to combat the crisis.
His comments followed a violent clash on Saturday, November 1, when illegal miners attacked National Anti-Illegal Mining Operations Secretariat personnel near Hwidiem in the Ahafo Region. Authorities seized firearms, ammunition, unregistered vehicles and mobile phones during the confrontation. The Minerals Commission...
Parliament will proceed with vetting Acting Chief Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie after Speaker Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin rejected a request to pause the confirmation process on Friday. Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin had attempted to halt proceedings until courts resolve litigation concerning the removal of former Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo, arguing that continuing could constitute interference with judicial matters.
Bagbin ruled the motion lacked constitutional and procedural standing, emphasizing that pending court cases cannot prevent lawmakers from executing their constitutional responsibilities. The speaker cautioned that accepting such arguments would create a dangerous precedent, allowing any person to paralyze...
Ghana's finance minister will deliver the 2026 budget to lawmakers on Thursday, November 13, 2025, according to Majority Leader Mahama Ayariga, who confirmed final preparations during parliamentary proceedings. The address will detail fiscal strategies and spending allocations for the coming financial year as the government navigates economic challenges.
Legislators anticipate substantial debate over proposed measures addressing employment generation, price stability, and growth maintenance. The budget arrives as Ghana implements reforms under its International Monetary Fund program while managing debt restructuring commitments and working to sustain recent macroeconomic gains.
Ghana received an upgrade from S&P Global Ratings on Saturday, moving from CCC+ to B- for both foreign and local currency sovereign debt following improvements in fiscal discipline and reserve accumulation. The rating agency pointed to enhanced balance of payments performance driven by gold and cocoa export gains, with foreign reserves climbing to nearly $11 billion from $6.8 billion within a year, while the cedi strengthened by approximately 35 percent against the dollar.
The assessment credited reforms implemented under the National Democratic Congress administration, which secured a parliamentary majority during the December 2024 voting, including new fiscal rules targeting a 1.5 percent primary surplus and long-term debt limits...
