The NPP must swallow this bitter pill. If they stood by and allowed the OSP to prosecute Sir John, a deceased man, without any objections, then why the pain now that it's Ken Ofori-Atta? Last time I checked, Ken Ofori-Atta isn't above the laws of this country, so there's nothing wrong with the OSP declaring him wanted. The law must be allowed to take its course. - Rev. Charles Owusu, Political Activist and Social Commentator.

Mr Ofori-Atta's guest on this month's podcast is Fred Pearce, the co-founder of the LGBTQ+ Society of Herne bay in Kent. He is an activist for LGBTQ+ rights and also works as a counter assistant in a community pharmacy. Among other issues, Mr Pearce explains the negative effect that misgendering a patient by continuously referring to them as a gender their identity does not align with can have on their mental health and their sense of identity. It is important for pharmacy staff to ensure they arm themselves with as much information as they can in order to provide the best possible care, Mr Pearce says. But his main take away is to always ask patients about their pronouns or other preferences when you are in doubt. Useful information to signpost patients to can be found via organisations such as Stonewall and Transunite. [insert podcast] Listen to the podcast in full to find out more about: • The impact of misgendering on trans patients • The need for education of healthcare professional on trans issues • The role community pharmacy can play in helping trans patients • How pharmacists can help inform and advise the LGBTQ+ community

Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta has announced that government will from April 1, 2022, reduce petroleum price build-up margins by ¢0.15 per litre.

The Minister of Finance, Ken Ofori-Atta, says a key challenge with Credit Rating Agencies is the lack of transparency in their rating methodologies, procedures, practices, and processes. He says the conclusions by the international rating agencies affected the prospects of African countries raising the required external financial resources on the capital market to promote economic expansion on the scale European economies did in the 1950s and 1960s. Mr Ofori-Atta says the unfair ratings affected developing countries access to credit. He says African sovereigns were significantly less likely to be promoted from B into the BB category, compared to other regions, even after accounting for improvements in the macro-fiscal environment and the willingness of African governments to service debts.

After the murder of George Floyd by a police officer in May 2020, many journalism outlets and journalists spent time reckoning with how the news industry could improve its coverage for Black people. Among those journalists was Lauren Williams, who was editor-in-chief and svp of Vox Media's news property Vox.com at the time. Williams and a former colleague Akoto Ofori-Atta — then-managing editor of non-profit news outlet The Trace — decided to leave their respective newsrooms to form their own, Capital B, a nonprofit news organization officially launched on Jan. 31 and focused on covering the news for Black people. “I do really think that, if I had gone to Jim Bankoff — who's the CEO of Vox Media — and said, ‘I really want to do something different,' I think he would have heard me in that moment and would have been open to discussing something. But I didn't do that,” Williams said in the latest episode of the Digiday Podcast. One reason Williams and Ofori-Atta opted to set off on their own is because they believed the nonprofit route was the right path for what they had in mind. By primarily depending on donors for funding rather than advertisers or subscribers — each of which can be fickle financial sources, though Capital B does operate a paid membership program — Capital B would be able to prioritize covering important issues for a specific audience. Minding Capital B's business model is also meant to help the organization to augment its national coverage by standing up more local news outposts, as it already has with Capital B Atlanta with a second local news outlet expected to be added later this year. “To spin up a new newsroom, we just have to hire the journalists. So in that way, we're cutting cost enormously and just adding efficiency to the process where we can be really nimble about where we're going next,” Williams said.
