Muslims have been advised to be cautious and particular with their food intake, during this year’s Ramadan. “It is very important to go through the fasting period, with a good understanding of how to break the fast, with regards to what food to eat, as well as the ones to be avoided.” Mr Issah Sumaila, a registered dietician, said this in an interview with the Ghana News Agency, at a health walk which was organised by the Ghana Academy of Muslim Professionals in Accra.

The dietician advised against foods that were high in fat, sugar and cholesterol and when breaking the fast, “go easy on complex carbohydrates. You could take them in moderate amounts, but not too much.” Mr Sumaila said foods such as rice and banku could be taken in moderate quantities as well as animal protein and quickly added, “but these proteins...

“Overall, the evidence suggests that liking continues to increase as people are exposed to an idea between ten and twenty times, with additional exposure still useful for more complex ideas.” Adam Grant argues in Originals. I have considerable reason to argue that the aforementioned quote holds true in Ghana, with regards to mental health. Acceptance and conformity seem to increase the more we get exposed to norms and ideas. For as long as I have lived, conversations around this area of health has been a taboo subject and are frowned upon by even the supposedly enlightened. In recent times, however, efforts have been made by some to bring the conversation around this subject into the mainstream. I must admit that even as a student, those who lectured in this area were called names and claimed to suffer from one mental health condition or the other. In most cases, derogatory comments were made. The result is that many health professionals much early in their training opted ...

Mr Jeremy Hunt, the United Kingdom Secretary for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, said one factor that could aid African nations to crackdown on corruption was by strengthening and sustaining media freedom.

Many residents of the Greater Accra Region, on Monday, turned up at the various registration centres of the National Identification Authority (NIA) to have their names recorded in the National Identity Register to be issued with the Ghana Card.

When the Ghana News Agency visited the Ga South Municipal Centre at 0900 hours, the applicants had formed a long queue, patiently awaiting their turns. The elderly ones, however, occupied the chairs provided by the officials. Some of the applicants, however, complained about the occasional breaks in the internet reception of the biometric machines as that slowed down the process. This sometimes resulted in the registration process lasting about 20 minutes for an applicant. Some of them, therefore, appealed to the NIA to increase the centres. Others said they did not know how to acquire their digital address code and wa...

While around the world extreme poverty has declined considerably, new World Bank estimates suggest that the number of extremely poor people—those who live on $1.90 a day or less—has fallen from 1.9 billion in 1990 to about 736 million in 2015. But the number of people living in extreme poverty is on the rise in sub-Saharan Africa, and they make up more than half of the extreme poor in 2015. Projections also point to the fact that by 2030, nearly nine in 10 extremely poor people will live in sub-Saharan Africa. The Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) has launched the Africa Poverty Clock, so the efforts of African countries to reduce poverty will be monitored. “As of today, the clock shows that more than 400 million people in Africa, equivalent to about 33 per cent of the population of the continent live in extreme poverty. The clock shows that, on this day, 25 March 2019, over 5,000 people have escaped poverty, but a similar number has also fallen into poverty,” Vera Songwe, the Exe...
