Ghana backs democracy in Sahel
MP Samuel Abdulai Jinapor wants Ghana to lead the charge for democracy in the Sahel area. The Damongo representative spoke up during Parliament when they discussed money for the Foreign Affairs Ministry.

Boateng under fire for tampering with bail evidence
The courts heard new claims against Angela Adjei Boateng last Friday. She allegedly tried to hide evidence when she learned police had arrested her husband. Deputy Attorney General Justice Srem Sai told everyone that Angela scattered suitcases full of money right after finding out about her husband Kwabena Adu-Boahene going to jail. Security cameras caught her actions between the time she heard about the arrest and the next morning. Prosecutors cited these facts to argue against better bail terms for the couple. They believe letting either person out creates two big problems: First, they might run away before trial, and second, they could mess with more evidence needed for the case. Justice Srem Sai mentioned these concerns directly...
