BECE results are out once more, SHS placements will be out soon. Do your best to allow your children have the best experience as far as formal education is concerned.  The most valuable gifts a parent could bestow upon their children is to have them properly educated, and given a good relationship with their creator. There is very little disputation to this. Parents need to invest as much resources as possible in their kids in order to have them properly positioned to face all the hercules that come along the voyage of life.  I am very pained however when parents feel ok spending so much money changing clothes and sewing new styles of dresses, and suits, spending lavishly at funerals, parties, and other social gatherings, yet when it comes to the education of their children and paying for their wards' educational materials, they make up all sorts of excuses and reasons for which they can't afford to pay.

Image
 The third most important man on the Ghanaian soil is in the news again. The speaker of Parliament, Rt hon. Alban Bagbin turned out in particular in a grand royal style today as he dressed in full royal kingship regalia to parliament today.

What is more intriguing about his new dressing to parliament is not the mere appearance of a traditional king, but his choice of a Voltaian Kingship regalia is what has got a lot of netizens talking about him. Some people are glad, and praise is move as a step in the right direction, as it would encourage others to wear local dresses and promote our local fabric or textile industry, others think otherwise.

 1. According to NIA, they cannot use the biometric data the Telcos are collecting to verify what is in their database. This is because the Telcos are just taking pictures of fingerprints and are not collecting Live fingerprints.  “NIA is unable to confirm that the biometric data to be collected by the NCA for the purpose described above will meet the standard to enable successful verification against the National Identification System (NIS) database.”  - NIA 2. According to NIA, they were not involved in the App (developed by KelniGVG) to register the SIMs. “The use of an App that is not developed or certified by NIA to rend the Ghana Card using a two-step data collection and verification process is outside NIA's control.
