Day: June 26, 2024

Mr Charles Abani, the United Nations (UN) Resident Coordinator in Ghana, has urged Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) to prioritize value-driven legitimacy and effectiveness in their actions.

He said legitimacy should be derived not only from constituencies but also from the values and principles civil society stood for.

Effectiveness on the other hand, the UN Resident Coordinator, speaking at the opening of the 2024 Ghana Civil Society Forum, said should be measured by the level of influence civil society exerted on various issues and the outcomes it achieved.

The two-day forum, the 2nd Edition, is on the theme: ‘Civil Society at an Inflection Point: Strategizing for Increased Legitimacy, Effectiveness, and Sustainability.’

Participants, from CSOs across the country, deliberated on three sub-themes: ensuring legitimacy with constituents and stakeholders, achieving effectiveness as organizations, and ensuring sustainable operations, revenues, and impacts.

The forum serves as a common platform for civil s
ociety organizations (CSOs) in Ghana to deliberate and reflect on their work as facilitators of good governance and inclusive development.

It was birthed after several rounds of inclusive consultations involving a diverse array of CSOs operating in Ghana and provides a space and mechanism to facilitate collective and inclusive actions towards the effectiveness, legitimacy, and sustainability of the civic sector and its organizations.

Mr Abani said by maintaining legitimacy and focusing on effectiveness civil society could enhance its credibility and impact.

He said there should be a shift towards constructively challenging existing norms and narratives to drive progress and shape a more sustainable future.

By critically examining current systems and advocating for change, Mr Abani, also a seasoned international development practitioner, stated that civil society could play a vital role in addressing global challenges like current global economic crises and climate change.

He said an effective strategy fo
r civil society organizations to tackle climate change was to focus on building an active climate movement.

Such a move, the UN Coordinator said, should not only be global but also extend to the grassroots level, involving relevant communities.

Mr Abani, who has worked across Africa, Asia and Europe with development organizations, observed that sustainable energy initiatives and inclusivity in energy access could be pivotal in mitigating climate challenges.

Fostering collaboration across different sectors, including government, private, and civil society, is essential for implementing impactful climate change solutions, he added.

To foster collaboration across sectors and regions for impactful change amidst global challenges, Civil Society needs to reframe its approach by embracing pragmatism, inclusivity, and strategic partnerships beyond ideological purity.

Mr Charles Abugre, Vice Chairman, Governing Council, SGF, who joined virtually, said the historical debate on the essence of humanity had significa
ntly influenced the current understanding of Civil Society.

He said, in the 19th century, influenced by Germanic and Eastern European philosophical and political economy debates, key figures like Frederick Andrews and Karl Marx delved into questions concerning the essence of humanity and the social drivers of change in society, leading to the formulation of ideas that shaped our contemporary understanding of Civil Society.

He said the foundation of the current understanding of Civil Society rested on historical debates that explored the main purpose of human existence and the factors driving social change within societies.

Those discussions, Mr Abugre, also a Development Economist, said questioned whether self-interest, economic structures, political institutions, or democratic principles were the primary drivers of societal transformation.

Those reflections continued to impact how society in the present day perceived and defined Civil Society.

Alhaji Amidu Ibrahim-Tanko, Executive Director, STAR-Ghana F
oundation, said the role of civil society wad critical in ensuring sustainable development at all levels.

He said in the past civil society used to be funded primarily by foreign donors and that it was time to diversify funding sources for CSOs as the global economic crisis was linked to the decline in the kind of support they received.

The Executive Director reiterated that one of the Forum’s objectives was to critically engage stakeholders to look at other forms of funding through social enterprise, and local philanthropy, among others, to ensure sustainability.

The Science and Technology Policy Research Institute of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR – STEPRI), has begun disseminating findings of a study the ICT for Agriculture (ICT4Ag) has conducted on ICTs in agriculture to farmers’ project.

Dubbed ‘Enhancing Farmers’ Uptake of Digital Technologies through Empirical Research, Innovation, and Policy Intervention’ (EFUDTRIPI) it seeks to assess and advocate increased usage of digital innovations in small, medium, and large-scale farmers. It also aims to understand why farmers are not adopting digital technologies to contribute to the development of national policies that enhance farmers’ access to digital technologies.

EFUDTRIPI project falls under the parent project, ‘Accelerating Inclusive Green Growth through Agri-based Digital Innovation in West Africa (AGriDI).

A total of 1040 farmers across nine of Ghana’s 16 regions, categorized into northern, middle, and southern zones participated in the project’s survey.

Participants of the dissem
ination and validation workshop were drawn from government ministries, departments and agencies, the private sector, ICT4AG companies, farmers and farmer organisations, research and academia, and media.

Professor Paul Bosu, Director-General (DG) CSIR, during the opening of the workshop, said the project aligned seamlessly with the overreacting vision and mandate of the council, hence using innovative science and technologies to promote socio-economic development.

‘The CSIR activities focus on seven key areas: food security and poverty reduction, climate change and green technology, material science and manufacturing, energy and petroleum, biomedical and public health, electronics and ICT, and science and people.

These thematic areas guide CSIR’s mission to drive progress and improve quality of life’, he said.

The Director General revealed that the current strategic plan of CSIR aimed at developing, disseminating, and driving the adoption of products and services that improved efficiency and addressing ele
ctronic communication and engineering problems.

Prof. Bosu said despite many achievements and innovations by the CSIR, it had struggled with limited uptake of technologies throughout the years.

‘The findings of this study that sought to identify the barriers and enablers will provide strategic pointers that will help bridge the gap between technology development and upkeep, especially in the agricultural sector that is very important to the nation and crucial to CSIR,’ he mentioned.

He urged farmers to adopt the technologies developed by the CSIR to help improve the sector.

He sent appreciation to the project team led by Dr Mrs Rose Omari, the International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology (ICIPE) through the Organisation of African, Caribbean, and Pacific States (OACPS) Research and Innovation programme innovation fund under the European Union for their support.

Mr. Kwamena Quaison, Director of STI, Ministry of Environment, Science, Technology, and Innovation underscored that the policy initiativ
es served as one of the key cornerstones of fostering the uptake of digital technologies among farmers.

He noted that the Government has chalked some success in improving agricultural output through initiatives such as the Planting for Food and Jobs programme which has helped farmers gain access to vital inputs and resources, boosting production and livelihoods.

He noted that the private sector development played a critical role in driving the uptake of digital technologies among farmers.

Dr. Wilhemina Quaye, Director, CSIR-STEPRI said the research institute aimed at diversifying its project portfolio and would leverage on the multi-disciplinary expertise of researchers with a particular focus on megatrends relating to climate change, sustainable development, food safety, waste management, and renewable energy.

She said several projects that were ongoing in STEPRI covered broad areas of digitalization in agriculture: food and nutrition, wider uptake of water-smart solutions in energy and agriculture, and
resilience against climate change, among others.

Dr. Quaye emphasized the need to partner with relevant stakeholders to provide research evidence and knowledge-based information to formulate and implement policies and programmes based on science, technology, and innovation.

Outcomes from the workshop, according to Dr Rose Omari, the Principal Investigator for the project was to increase the knowledge of policymakers in adapting or formulating national policies, of ICT4Ag (ICT for Agricultural Development) companies to develop, adapt and deliver quality, secured and more impactful digital solutions to farmers as well as of farmers’ usage of ICT and its impact on their operations and productivity.

The Ghana Fintech and Payments Association has advocated for a dedicated Fund to provide catalytic investment for Ghana’s financial technology (fintech) and services sector.

The Fund is to promote direct investment into fintech start-ups, support the building of critical infrastructure, establish ideation hubs, and conduct relevant industry research to inform policy and regulatory purposes.

That, Mr Richard Nunekpeku, Vice President, Legal and Strategy, Ghana Fintech and Payments Association, said would address the quality and usage issues in financial inclusion, thereby, help bridge inequalities, reduce poverty faster, and improve economic growth.

He was speaking at the maiden Ghana Financial Inclusion conference, held by the Ministry of Finance on Wednesday, June 26, 2024, in Accra, and on the theme: ‘Accelerating financial inclusion in a digital era.’

He noted that fintech had the power to bring affordable financial services to the underserved, and empower individuals and communities, and called on all
stakeholders to support initiatives to build the sector, sustainably.

As of 2015, the country’s financial inclusion, in terms of access, championed by increased Mobile Money (MoMo) transactions, was 58 per cent, but had reached 96 per cent as of 2022, the Ghana Financial Inclusion report noted.

In 2022, the volume of MoMo transactions reached 5.07 billion, with a total value of GHS1.07 trillion, while active MoMo customers and agents recorded a growth of 9.8 per cent in the same year.

Nonetheless, financial inclusion, in terms of quality and usage, remained a challenge, the report noted.

To comprehensively solve the challenges in the fintech ecosystem to drive financial inclusion, Mr Nunekpeku advocated for Ghana to have a dedicated investment fund through a public-private partnership.

‘We need a dedicated investment fund because financing has become a critical way of leveraging the growth that we expect from the sector. If we do not have a dedicated fund, it’s going to be a challenge for young people ra
ising funding for the initiatives that they have,’ he said.

The Fund, he said, should be used to, among others, sustain advocacy, training, and capacity building for stakeholders in the fintech value chain, particularly young Ghanaians who are driving innovations in the sector.

It should also be used to support innovations and technological advancement, nurture entrepreneurs to create jobs, strengthen regulatory compliance, and enable sustainable development, he said.

‘When we build the fund around these objectives, we will begin to see very positive use cases coming out of any fund that’s established,’ Mr Nunekpeku, said.

He recommended that the management of the fund should comprise both public-private players, including associations, regulators, financial institutions, and development partners, with a Secretariat to man its daily operations.

Professor George Yaw Baffour-Gyan, who spoke on behalf of the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, said the financial sector, including fintech, contributed 47 pe
r cent of Ghana’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), underscoring its relevance to the growth of the economy.

He said the government had taken many efforts to enhance fintech sector resilience to enable it to withstand shocks, and create a robust financial ecosystem that promoted greater financial inclusion.

Notable among them were the National Financial Inclusion and Development Strategy, Cash-lite roadmap, mobile money interoperability, and QR code payment system.

‘Collaborative efforts between the government, private sector, and international partners, are necessary to tackle these issues and build a secure and inclusive financial ecosystem,’ he said.

He called for more support to the government’s digitalisation drive to deepen financial inclusion, through the promotion of innovation and impact in the designing and use of financial technology in the country.

Dr Alex Ampaabeng, a Deputy Finance Minister, indicated that the country, through its National Financial Inclusion and Development Strategy, had made
progress in breaking barriers of access to financial services.

‘This achievement is largely attributed to the exponential growth in mobile money adoption, transforming the financial landscape, and empowering millions of Ghanaians with access to affordable and quality financial services,’ he said.

He said the establishment of the National Cyber Security Centre, and the implementation of the Cybersecurity Act 2020, had led to the safeguard of consumers and financial institutions, resulting in a 30 per cent reduction in cyber security incidents.

The Supreme Court in a unanimous decision affirmed that the Bank of Ghana committed no error in revoking the licence of UniCredit Ghana Limited.

The five-member panel presided over by Justice Gertrude Sackey Torkornoo reversed the decision of the Court of Appeal and affirmed the decision of the High Court in the case of the Republic Versus Bank of Ghana, Ex Parte Hoda Holdings Limited.

On March 18, 2021, the High Court presided over by Justice Gifty Agyei Addo, ruled in favour of the Bank of Ghana, and held that from the evidence before the Court, UniCredit was insolvent prior to the revocation of its licence.

The Court found that contrary to UniCredit’s claim of not being given a hearing, the Bank of Ghana served UniCredit with numerous notices directing it to rectify its capital deficiency, failing which the Bank of Ghana would exercise its powers under section 123 of Act 930.

The Court further held that the Bank of Ghana committed no missteps in revoking the license of Unicredit.

The High Court thus a
ffirmed that the steps taken by the Bank of Ghana to revoke the licence of UniCredit and place it under receivership accorded with Act 930.

On August 16, 2019, The Bank of Ghana declared UniCredit Ghana Limited (Unicredit) insolvent and revoked its licence to operate as a savings and loans company, under section 123 of the Banks and Specialised Deposit Taking Institutions Act of 2016 (Act 930).

Hoda Holdings Limited, the majority shareholder of UniCredit filed an application at the Human Rights Division of the High Court seeking a judicial review of the decision of the Bank of Ghana, to revoke UniCredit’s licence and an order of injunction restraining the Bank from interfering with the operations of UniCredit.

Hoda Holdings Limited, aggrieved and dissatisfied with the decision of the High Court appealed to the Court of Appeal.

On July 7, 2022, the Court of Appeal comprising Justice Janapare A. B, Justice G.S., Justice Merley Wood and Justice Gbiel S. Suurbaareh overturned the decision of the High Court an
d ruled in favour of Hoda Holdings Limited.

The Court of Appeal held that the Bank of Ghana in revoking the licence of UniCredit under section 123 of Act 930 should have followed the steps provided in section 16(3 and 4) of Act 930. The Court of Appeal further held that the failure of the Bank of Ghana to comply with the procedure in section 16(3 and 4) of Act 930 meant that UniCredit was not given a hearing before its licence was revoked.

The Central Bank, dissatisfied with the decision of the Court of Appeal, filed an appeal at the Supreme Court against the decision of the Court of Appeal.

Manasseh Azure, an investigative journalist, received a barrage of queries in court regarding his journalism training, his legal knowledge and multiple allegations he made against Lighthouse Chapel International (LCI) in a series of articles titled ‘Darkness in a Lighthouse.’

The LCI sued Azure, the Media Foundation for West Africa, its director Sulemana Braimah and Edwin Appiah for publication of the articles.

The defendants contended that the suit was ‘intended to unlawfully fetter and frustrate them (defendants) in their fundamental and constitutional right to speech and of mass media guaranteed in Articles 21 and 162 of the Constitution.’

On June 19, 2024, during Azure’s cross-examination, Mr. Kweku Paintsil, the lawyer for LCI, questioned him about whether he knew that Article 164, which ensures that every Ghanaian has the right to a good reputation, balances Article 162, which protects the freedom of the press.

He gave an affirmative response.

Mr. Painstil confronted Manasseh with exhibits proving
that Sulemana Braimah published the articles in question on his own Facebook wall in response to a defence that Sulemana Braimah, the third defendant, was not involved in the Fourth Estate’s publications.

Mr. Painstil asked Manasseh to attest that Sulemana Braimah was the publisher of the exhibits. Manasseh admitted it.

When Manasseh was asked if he could recall a speech he gave at the University of Ghana in March 2023, where he stated that he had never been held liable by a court for his publications.

In response, Manasseh said he could not recall specifics from the speech, but if he ‘did refer to not being found liable then it would be with reference to defamation.’

He was then asked if he recalled that, concerning the article ‘Darkness in a Lighthouse,’ he and the other defendants were found guilty of contempt of court on October 25, 2022, to which he admitted.

But he (Azure) clarified ‘a contempt case is different from a defamation case.’ 

Mr. Paintsil persisted after Azure’s response, that the defe
ndant was conveying the notion that, when dealing with press matters, a civil judgment is more important to him than a criminal conviction resulting from his publications.

In response, Azure said, ‘That was not the case.’

When asked if he understood the significance of disclosing information that was not before the court, Azure responded that he did in his capacity as a journalist.

He was asked about whether he received training on the publication of matters before the court as a journalist.

‘What I remember from such training was to refrain from passing judgement or opinions about the possible outcome of a case,’ he replied.

Azure was pressed again about the allegations he made in his publications regarding the Plaintiff’s (LCI) purported refusal to pay the Social Security benefits of six pastors who had resigned from the church.

He answered that ‘Those were the allegations by the six pastors who resigned and same were also found in the documents they filed in court.’

Azure admitted that the documents
filed by those six pastors before the court were for the judge’s assessment and determination only at the conclusion of the trial.

He further admitted that he did not expect the trial judge to be bound by any conclusion that he (Azure) reached at the end of the trial.

In spite of an SSNIT report that cleared the LCI regarding the six pastors’ contributions, Azure acknowledged that he nevertheless published an article headlined ‘Evidence – How Lighthouse Chapel incriminated itself and SSNIT Looked away.’

The LCI, relying on an August 2021 SSNIT report, has indicated in court that the defendants lack any proof to substantiate the claim that the church owed some former pastors over 42 years’ worth of social security contributions.

The LCI stated that Azure and other parties lacked proof to back up their claims that the three church structures the publications showed-which the church possessed-were built from the personal resources of past pastors Larry Odonkor, Edward Laryea, and Seth Duncan.

The court pres
ided over by Justice Joseph Adu Owusu, adjourned the matter to July 22, 2024, for continuation of the cross-examination.

Fishermen at New Takoradi in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis of the Western Region have suggested to the Ministry of Fisheries and Aquaculture Development to move the closed fishing season period from July to between May and June annually.

That, they believed, was the best period where the fishes reproduced to effectively replenish the depleted fish stock after a year-long fishing expeditions in the country’s marine waters.

Nana Atoabo, the Spokesperson for Fishermen at New Takoradi, who spoke to the Ghana News Agency in an interview, said: ‘The essence of the closed fishing season is for the fishes to lay eggs and reproduce more, and for us, we believe that the best period to achieve that is between May and June.

‘We want the Ministry of Fisheries and Aquaculture Development to consider this and move the period from July to between May and June.’

On the impact of the directive on their livelihoods, he mentioned that the month-long ban on fishing activities brought economic difficulties to them and their
families.

‘This is our only means of survival, and so staying out of work for a month is very difficult for us and our families,’ he said.

Nana Atoabo said though the government distributed some relief items to cushion them during the period, the items were not enough to sustain their households for a month.

He appealed to the government to put in place robust measures to ensure they had adequate food and other materials needed to keep them afloat until the ban was lifted when they could resume their work.

Mr. Joseph Yao Hotor, the General Secretary of the Communication Workers Union (CWU) has said the introduction of AI and other technologies that result in heavy job cuts would be opposed.

Millions of jobs have been placed on the line with rise in adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and other assistive technologies, and the General Secretary said the Union faced ‘significant challenges,’ as the entire job clusters were being levelled.

Mr. Hotor raised the objection in an address at the eighth quadrennial delegates conference of the Communication Workers Union in Ho and was on the theme ‘The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on the Future of Work: The Role of the Union.’

He said that while the Union appreciated the prospects of new technology, jobs within the sector needed to be kept intact.

‘The loss of projects and resulting redundancies, these have led to a decline in our membership and difficulty in organising particularly with remote work arrangements. American Towers Corporation, Ghana, Ericson A
B, Ghana, and Prime and Infrastructure Engineering have all been affected.

‘The union took note when metro TV laid off about 200 employees as part of restructuring efforts during the switch from analogue to digital broadcasting. So, it was on TV Africa. During the period, the Union had seen sizable number of its members become redundant – A trend driven by the rapid evolution of technology.

‘While the union fully supports technological progress, it strongly objects to the introduction of technologies that would result in job loss and displacement of workers,’ he stated.

The General Secretary said the Union would work with stakeholders to ensure workers-maintained relevance through the times, adding that committed investments in education and skills training should be considered by the governments, worker unions and organisations as forward interventions.

‘It is very crucial for Unions, industries, and governments to adopt and prepare for these changes by investing in education, retraining and upscaling pr
ogrammes. These would enable workers to transition into new roles and take advantage of the opportunities presented by AI and automation. These strategies are necessary for a just technological transition,’ he said.

Mr. Hotor noted ‘tireless efforts’ by the Trade Union Congress (TUC) at reviewing the nation’s Labor Law and said it should need provisions for the regulation of job shedding technologies.

He further said the Union would partner the Communications Ministry in ‘investigating the impact of emerging technologies and develop innovative solutions to protect and create new job opportunities, ensuring a secure and prosperous future for workers.’

Madam Vida Quansah, National Chairperson of the Union was of hope that the Conference would position the Union to ‘capitalise on the benefit of existing technologies and stay ahead of the curves.’

Madam Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, the Communications Minister, in a speech read for her, gave the assurance that the National AI Development Strategy developed recently wo
uld provide the needed guidance and that an ethical AI framework was being designed.

Dr. Yaw Baah, the Secretary General of the Trade Union Congress, said the AI revolution should not inspire fear and uncertainty, and affirmed commitment to ensuring the crucial labour law would receive the needed attention and support.
