This workshop is aimed to build the capacity of Journalists and media practitioners in the eastern region.

Addressing the journalists and media practitioners at the event, the Advisor of the Ghana National Cybersecurity, Dr. Albert Antwi Bosiako said, anytime we are having a deal with someone and we suspect there is fraud somewhere in the deal we shouldn’t hesitate to call 292, officers are there to give guidance.

Dr. Antwi Bosiako adds, “about 5,000 people from January to August of this year (2020) call the centre for direction and they were being prevented from fraud”. This are some of the things we need to share with Journalists because we can also disseminate the messages at the end of the day to ensure we have a secured digital environment to operate.

“We should all take the Cybersecurity awareness as a personal responsibility. Again we should also know that it is not everything on the internet is good for us” Dr. Albert Bosiako advised.

He continue that, we are responsible by the action and inaction when we are using the internet. The action is whereby you snap your nude picture and posted it on the internet. Immediately you do that many website will picked it and if the law enforcement says we can remove that picture it wouldn’t be easy and in most cases it stays there forever. Therefore we need to be careful about the things we posted on the internet.

He said, as a Journalist if you want to teach someone on what’s happening in the country then you have to build your capacity. We are in an era of fake news, misinformation and disinformation. It is important for every journalist to be able to detect the fake news before airing it. Doing this will prevents us from going into troubles.

Mr. Kudekor commend the Ghana National Cybersecurity Centre for the workshop. This has made us to know that we can’t pick any story from the internet and be broadcasting it.

Mr. Samuel Ofosu Ampofo the National Chairman for the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has blast and mock at Prez Akufo-Addo for given one fully air condition V8 with security personnel to protect and carry his chair to everywhere he goes in the country.

This he described as “governance is not like carrying the Ghana’s presidential chair around” because the chair is not your own property. “Good governance is to bring development to your people”

Mr. Ofosu Ampofo explained that, governance is all about responding to the wishes and aspirations of the people and addressed their socio – economic needs.

“Four years under Prez Nana Addo is full of hardship meanwhile in 2016 he told us that he is coming to create more jobs for the youth to get something doing and am asking has the youth gotten work doing as he promised? ” he asked.

I’m telling Prez Akufo-Addo again; “governance is not like palm wine to taste and see”. Under his tenure, he has collapsed a lot of banks and micro finances in the country including Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduoms’s own.

“If am passing by and I sees Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom’s banks being left in the bush and is rotten, I feel so sorry for him. Because his banks alone employed over 3,000 workers but now they are all at home and is very disturbing”he cried.

Mr. Samuel Ofosu Ampofo mentioned these at Asuokoo in the Upper West Akim when the NDC’s Veep candidate Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang embarked on 5 day eastern regional tour.

Prof. Jane Opoku-Agyemang on her part commended the Upper West Akim constituents for voting NDC for over 20yrs. Because they want good things for their constituency.

Voting is about moving the country forward in terms of development but not about putting fear in the citizens, bragging and long talk.

Whenever NDC is in power, people sees our good works physically and we do exactly what the people expected of us. That’s why in our manifesto , we went for an idea from the good people of Ghana write it. So you could see that our manifesto covers everybody in the country. She therefore admonished Ghanaians to vote NDC coming off December 7,2020 polls.

“Because this is the first time in Ghana’s history, someone from Akyem Abuakwa has won the presidential seat.

Chairman Yaw Boakye adds, now that they have grabbed the presidential seat for the first time, the good of Akyem Abuakwa should rally behind Prez Akufo-Addo to ensure he goes for his second term to bring more developmental projects to the constituency and Ghana as a whole.

He was speaking in an interview with Kingdom FM’s KONTIHEN KOFI OBOH after successfully filed the forms on behalf of his MP, Hon. Samuel Atta Kyea.

He continue that, under the regime of their MP, the Abuakwa South Constituency have witnessed so many developmental projects of which he can’t mention them one after the other.

“The Free SHS education has reduced burdens from our MP. Aside that he still cater for some vulnerable students who are furthering their education at the tertiary level both home and abroad” he revealed.

Chairman Boakye further stated, this year’s new voter registration exercise, they registered over 51,000 eligible voters and they expected not less than 49,000 out of them to come out in their numbers to vote massively for Prez Akufo-Addo and Hon. Samuel Atta Kyea to continue their good works for mother Ghana.

He therefore made a humble appeal to indigenes of Abuakwa South who have travelled outside the constituency to come home and vote when the elections period is due.
