Chief Executive Officer of the Mckeown Group of Companies, Kwaku Adu Aninkorah, has lamented the lack of integrity among Ghanaian workers.
He however says the low minimum wage paid workers partly accounts for theft at workplaces.

Speaking to David Akuetteh on Luv In the Morning on Luv FM, he said “integrity has come to naught. It is time to demonstrate honesty even a...

There is now a legal duty on local authorities to provide free items such as tampons and sanitary pads to “anyone who needs them”.

The bill was introduced by Labour MSP Monica Lennon, who has been campaigning to end period poverty since 2016.
She said: “Local authorities and partner organisations have worked hard to make the legal right to access free period products a reality.
“This is another big milestone for period dignity campaigners and grassroots mov...

Two Ethiopian Airlines pilots fell asleep while flying a flight from Sudan’s Khartoum to Ethiopia’s capital Addis Ababa and missed their landing.
The incident took place on Monday, according to Aviation Herald, which added that the Air Traffic Control (ATC) raised an alert when flight ET343 approached the airport but did not start the descent.

The ATC tried to contact the pilots several times but couldn’t succeed. When the plane overflew the runway where it was supposed to land, the autopilot disconnected. That triggered an alarm, wh...
