GTA denies claims of changing greetings at Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park

The Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA) has dismissed claims on social media that it replaced traditional greetings on the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park signage.
In a statement signed by Chief Executive Officer Maame Efua Houadjeto, the Authority said it has not ordered or approved the replacement of the inscriptions “Woezor” in Ewe and “Akwaaba” in Akan with the word “Oobakɛ.”
The GTA explained that the greetings remain an important part of Ghana’s cultural identity and have not been altered.
The Authority further noted that any change to the signage at the Park cannot be done without approval from the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture and the relevant agency in charge.
“The GTA wishes to put in the public domain that we do not know anything about it and we did not order or approve the change of the inscriptions on the signage,” the statement read.
The Authority urged the public to disregard the false information and continue to support the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park, describing it as a symbol of national pride and unity.

Ursula Owusu declares bid for NPP General Secretary, calls for party unity and renewal

Former Minister of Communications, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, has officially declared her intention to contest for the position of General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
In a message released on her birthday, Ursula called on party members to unite and rebuild confidence in the NPP after what she described as a difficult period for the party.
She acknowledged that the NPP had gone through internal challenges that left members “bruised” and “battered,” but expressed optimism that the party would recover and emerge stronger.
“Our situation is but a necessary phase of self-introspection and diagnosis towards our journey of re-organisation,” she stated.
The former minister criticised the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government, describing it as “an accident-of-a-government” that “lied its way into power.”
She said the NPP must reorganise from the polling stations to the national level to regain public trust and recapture power in the next election.
“This caretaker NDC government is there not because they are preferred, they are there because they lied their way into government amidst lofty promises and caused belief in us to wane. But we will revive it,” she said.
Ursula described herself as a “fighter” who has been “nurtured, proven, and prepared” to lead the party’s administrative front into the 2028 elections.
“I come to you in all humility, to ask you, dear patriots, to join me on this rescue mission as your next General Secretary,” she declared.
She urged party members in Ghana and abroad to unite under one purpose to reorganise, regain public confidence, and position the NPP as the party of development and progress.
“With unity and God on our side, as well as the collective will of the Ghanaian people, we shall overcome,” she concluded.

The project will use AI and blockchain to improve sports governance, track athlete performance, and establish transparent sponsorship systems that link local and international partners.
It will cover disciplines including football, boxing, athletics, basketball, rugby, weightlifting, and many others.
The NSA and JKG believe the partnership will not only enhance sports development but also make Ghana a model for how innovation can drive progress in the global sports industry.
