Multiple-award-winning Ghanaian musician, Okyeame Kwame has undraped the reason for settling on Kofi Kinaata for his new song, Sika.
According to Okyeame Kwame, he has always wanted to do a song with Kofi Kinaata, because he is a big fan.
Again he also said he respects Kinaata’s creativity and among others wanted to have a record together.
Speaking to spectator.com.gh, Okyeame Kwame said he was the only one who had won the Songwriter of the Year twice until Kofi Kinaata came to change the narrative, by winning it on three occasions.
For this reason, Okyeame Kwame said “I wanted to know what is in that head, and I called him for us to do a song together, and during the recording sessions, I realised why he is a great writer, ‘the boy get common sense period’. Very intelligent, very smart, he has learnt the trick and the trade.”
Okyeame Kwame said it was a big opportunity for him to do a song with Kofi Kinaata, who he admires.
Touching on the song’s concept, he said Sika aims to inspire people to hustle to make ends meet in the future.
“It is who I have become currently, most of the things I do is to seek to bring out difficult times and triumphant moments, from poverty to riches,” the Rap Dacta said.
The song is available on all digital platforms.

Constitutional review: Government accepts proposal to abolish death penalty – Dominic Ayine

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.
