NPP defies court injunction to elect new executives

In spite of a 10-day injunction placed on the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Volta Regional Delegates Conference by a High Court in Ho, the party went ahead to elect its regional executives on Saturday.
The former regional organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Makafui Kofi Woanyah, has been elected the new chairman of the party in the Volta region.
Kofi Boateng had claimed he was not treated fairly and resorted to the courts.
In the polls, Mr. Woanyah overcame competition from three other aspirants polling 296 out of the 497 votes at the St. Francis College of Education in Hohoe on Saturday.
A fourth aspirant for the position, Ken Anku, a lawyer, withdrew from the race due to the court injunction.
Joseph Homenya and Joseph Denteh, incumbents for the Regional Secretary and Treasurer positions respectively, were retained.
A former director of elections for the NPP 2016 campaign, Emmanuel Korsi Bodja secured the Regional Organizer position while Afia Agyagbo secured the women Organizer position.

A graph revealing the average size of a man’s erect penis from all over the world has surfaced online and Africa is topping the list. Ghanaian men have the world’s largest penises, while Nigerian ranks 5th according to the latest ranking. South African men are ranked at number 10. It appears countries such as Asian countries such as India, Thailand and South Korea are not as gifted in terms of ‘eggplant’ as they are sitting at the bottom of the table. Nigeria is in the top five with Gabon, Jamaica, and Haiti. Target Map published a graph showing the differing lengths of a male’s manhood size across the World and Africa, Western Africa particular, takes the top spot.

The deceased were part of a youth fellowship team of fifteen people who went to the beach to pray on Good Friday.

The onlookers were looking at this three gentlemen drowning.” “We just received a call ...
