Frank Nelson refuses to panic after Hearts of Oak crashed out against Asante Kotoko last Sunday. The former board member stands firmly behind new coach Mas-Ud Didi Dramani despite the crushing 2-1 defeat at Accra Sports Stadium.

Nelson told Kessben FM that judging Dramani based on a single game would be completely unfair. The supporter pointed out that everyone knows about the coach's impressive background and lengthy career. Dramani spent years working with FC...

Education watchdog group Africa Education Watch cheered the government's new scholarship reform bill. The proposed law would create a proper Ghana Scholarship Authority to handle student funding. Kofi Asare leads the education think tank and says the change will end corrupt practices. He wants scholarships to go to deserving students instead of political favorites.
