from Ghana / Afrika in Focus · host Kwame

Send us Fan MailThis week's edition of Ghana in Focus looks at the milestone of 30 years of democratic dispensation in Ghana asking the question success or sham.We take a brief look into the circumstances that led to the birth of the 4th republic in January 1993 citing the instability Ghana suffered in the post Nkrumah years. We then look into why and how 'democracy' was re introduced into Ghana in 1993 following the first multi party elections in 1992 that ushered in the 4th republic citing key individuals.Next we make a critical comparison between Ghana and Rwanda , both with different circumstances and systems of governance to analyse their success and failures.We end by stating that the 'western' system of so called multi party democracy has failed and has yielded very little dividends for the vast majority of Ghanaians who continue to see their quality of life evaporated.  Indeed we conclude that Ghana has retrogressed!!In short Ghana needs a system of governance for the people by the people that is in the collective interests of Ghanaians and not a system that benefits a small political elite who loot state resources for the benefit of themselves, their families and their cronies.We recommend that the constitution be scrapped and a new one enshrined as the current constitution is deeply flawed with power concentrated in the hands of a few.Please support Ghanaian farmers:  https://www.growforme.com/enSupport the show: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1793098/supportSupport the showDonate/Support the show:    https://www.buzzsprout.com/1793098/supportWe offer a consultation session for those who wish to relocate to Ghana , do business in Ghana , buy land, buying a property or even starting  business in Ghana.  We offer professional support tailored on your needs and wants. We provide valuable information that can assist you in your relocation like the Ghana card how/where to register your business.We can also signpost you to other agencies that can help in your relocation as well as business and investment opportunities.We charge a rate of US$30 for an hour's consultation or US$20 for a 30 minute consultation briefing. To book your consultation please email [email protected] on Youtube - just look for the Ghana/Afrika in Focus podcast on Youtube and click the notification bell so that every time I upload a new podcast it automatically comes to your feed. Tell your family and friends.
