The religious leader posted a Facebook video doubting her success story about selling acheke food. He thinks someone else secretly helps fund her luxury lifestyle and business growth.

Police told tricycle drivers they can only carry two passengers or face arrest. Chief Superintendent Albert Fii Ochil runs the Central Regional traffic department and says more than two riders breaks the law. Officers consider extra passengers an overload that creates danger for everyone. The tricycle seats might fit four people but the engine cannot handle that much weight safely. Driver licensing officials set the limits based on what each vehicle can actually carry.
Ochil arrested one driver who packed 11 people into his tricycle and took him to court. He believes too many passengers cause the accidents that happen across Ghana each year. The law protects people and drivers must follow rules whether they like them or not. Machines...
A mechanic walked free Thursday after 23 years behind bars for a crime he never did. Yaw Asante Agyekum won his freedom when Ghana's Court of Appeal threw out his conviction. Three judges said prosecutors never proved he helped the famous robber Ataa Ayi steal from people. The court ruled evidence against Agyekum was too weak to send him to prison. His lawyer George Bernard Shaw fought for eight years to clear his client's name.
Police arrested Agyekum back in 2002 and linked him to Ataa Ayi's gang of thieves. Ataa Ayi got 90 years total for multiple robberies around Accra during those scary times. Judges gave Agyekum 35 years even though he said he was innocent from day one. The real criminal Ataa Ayi still sits in prison serving his...

Road program chief Nii Lantey Vanderpuye slammed opposition lawmakers for marching to police headquarters about delayed election results. He called their Thursday protest a waste of time on Channel One TV. Vanderpuye said the lawmakers wanted media attention instead of real answers. The march looked more like a show than serious work to fix voting problems. He thinks some lawmakers just wanted exercise to lose weight around their stomachs.
Vanderpuye asked why lawmakers went to police instead of election officials. Police do not run elections or announce winners according to Ghana's constitution. The Electoral Commission handles all voting matters and declares results. Lawmakers should have taken their complaints to election officers...
