• Bishop Michael Quartey delivering a sermon
Bishop Mike Quartey, Regional Overseer of Perez Chapel, has urged members of the New Times Corporation (NTC) to be thankful to God and also their colleagues for whatever situations they may find themselves in.
According to him, the attitude of thanksgiving was a sign of appreciation and being thankful was key to happiness and contentment in life.
Quoting from Luke 17: 12-17 with emphasis on verse 15 “one of them, when he saw he was healed, came back praising God in a loud voice,” he urged staff of the Corporation to develop a habit of Thanksgiving.
Bishop Quartey stressed that being “thankful improves one’s health because it insulates him or her from anxiety and covetousness.”
“Also, thanksgiving improves our relationship with God and a fellow human being. Anybody who is not thankful is not successful because thanksgiving is a vehicle to our next level in life,’ he added.
The Managing Director of New Times Corporation, Mr. Martin Adu also conveyed a message to the members of staff. According to him, the year 2022 will always be a blast from the past to some Ghanaians.
He said it was a tough year yet we thank God for taking us through the year successfully and encouraged thestaff to work expeditiously this year to make the corporation a unique entity.

Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr. Dominic Ayine, has announced that the government has accepted the recommendation to abolish the death penalty and replace it with life imprisonment as part of the constitutional review process.
He said the proposed amendment would affect Articles 3, 13, 19 and 72 of the 1992 Constitution, with offences that previously attracted the death penalty instead carrying life imprisonment.
Dr. Ayine made the announcement on July 30, 2026, at the Jubilee House in Accra during the Government Accountability Series while outlining the government’s position on the final recommendations of the Constitution Review Committee.
According to him, the government believes the death penalty is inconsistent with the constitutional right to life and Ghana’s international human rights obligations.
He explained that the recommendation forms part of broader proposals aimed at strengthening the protection of fundamental human rights under the Constitution.
Dr. Ayine said the government had also accepted the spirit of several recommendations to expand rights relating to women, children, persons with disabilities, older persons and the youth.
He added that a comprehensive Human Rights Act would be introduced to protect these rights and provide detailed enforcement mechanisms instead of amending the entrenched provisions of the Constitution through a national referendum.
