Business Development Ministry is uselessly needless – Mahama

Former President of Ghana, John Dramni Mahama says it’s needless to have set up the Business Development Ministry. Akufo-Addo in his tenure has set up the Business Development Ministry to promote the private sector in Ghana. But speaking to a section of the media in a Facebook Livestream event, the former President noted that it was needless setting up that Ministry. “I don’t think that you need a Business Development Ministry to promote Private Sector Growth. We had the Ministry of Trade that was handling aspects of it, Finance was handling aspects of it and all that and I think that that is sufficient.” The flagbearer of the NDC indicated that he hasn’t seen anything that the Business Development Ministry since it was set up has done to boost the private sector.

The participants of the Seminar included lawyers, journalists, student representatives, and civil society representatives, and they were engaged in an interactive discussion on citizenship rights in the light of domestic and international human rights frameworks. Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Usama Malik said that an egalitarian basis of citizenship was incorporated in international law.

Breaking: Syrian Army captures town near Turkish military post

BEIRUT, LEBANON (2:00 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has captured another town in the Idlib countryside after advancing further west of Ma’arat Al-Nu’man. READ ALSO: Syrian Army captures several areas in Idlib in past 48 hours Led by the 25th Special Mission Forces Division (formerly Tiger Forces), the Syrian Arab Army captured the town of Hish after a short battle with the jihadist rebels of Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) this afternoon. The town of Hish is important because of its location near the Turkish military’s observation post in the Ma’arat Al-Nu’man countryside. With Hish under their control, the Syrian Arab Army will likely attempt to push towards the strategic city of Ariha, which was captured by Jaysh Al-Fateh during their 2015 offensive in the Idlib Governorate.
