‘Execution’ In Line of Duty: A Satire

Thought process
A Ghanaian nurse went out on a motorbike to collect drugs for her facility and did not come back. She was a mother of two, married two weeks before the accident, the only health professional serving her community in Sissala West. On the same day she died, President Mahama was in Geneva asking the world to invest in resilient supply chains and local factories. She was the supply chain. She was the factory. She strapped the medical supplies to her back and became a one-woman logistics operation, and the road finished what the system started. This is a satire about the gap between what Ghana announces at the 79th World Health Assembly and what Ghana asks of its nurses on a Tuesday afternoon in the rain.

The markets that will employ them will be ready in November 2028. The sod, at least, has never been late.

Value for Money Or Money for Value: A Satire.

Ghana has a new office to stop inflated public contracts. The Legal Division of the Ministry of Finance was already assigned this job. They lacked the specialised expertise. The solution, naturally, was not to train them. The solution was a new office, fully furnished with the usual government-issue sofas that nobody is allowed to sit on. It opens in January 2027. Eight months from now. In the meantime, the birds at the Legal Division remain at their desks. Hope remains the only currency we have left. And it is the hope that we have.

Ghana’s AI Computing Hub To Run On Generators?

The Akosombo fire was on Wednesday. The AI hub was announced on Thursday. There was a generator at the launch venue. It has seen these announcements before. It will be here for the next one. The AI hub is an electricity power cannibal which needs consistent power supply to keep running. Now tell me. Is Ghana ready to sustain such a project with the bit size electricity supply?
