This is why the Ghanaian public must never stop speaking up.
Ghanaians raised concerns about the lack of speed limit signs and speed camera warnings under TraffiTech-GH, and the authorities have listened.
From November 9, new speed limit and camera warning signs are expected to go up on affected roads.
The public spoke. The authorities listened. Action is following. ππΎπ¬π
Road safety enforcement must come with clear road signs and public education. Isn't that how it should be?
Thereβs a lot of history behind the plaid woven bags we know as βGhana Must Go.β Originally made in Asia, they became symbols of displacement in 1983 when some Ghanaians were expelled from Nigeria. π¬ππ³π¬
Now @DenimTears brings that history into sneaker culture through his @adidas Originals collaboration.
βοΈGrowing up, what did you know these bags as, and did you know the story behind the name?

You sold your car years ago, yet youβre still receiving speeding tickets from Traffic Tech? Youβre probably wondering why.
How does Traffic Tech work, what happens when a vehicle is captured for a traffic offence, and who is responsible for paying the fine?
Hereβs what you need to know about Ghanaβs Traffic Tech system and the rules governing its enforcement.

So far, no one has created a Ghanaian version of Ludo that includes all the rulesβLine Kick, Back Kick, Front Kick, Home Kick, and Labourer. Who would be interested in taking this on? @TheDumbTechGuy

Afia Schwarzenegger has this to say about TraffiTechβGH.
She was comparing the Speed limit happenings in the US, where she lives, to Ghana.
It takes one generation to change the mindset of a people.
Imagine being so foolish that you decide to cover your number plate to outsmart #TrafficTech!
π€¦πΎββοΈ What level of lawlessness is this?
How do we trace such a vehicle after a hit-and-run or some other crime?
@GhPoliceService, this deserves urgent investigation and accountability.
How President Mahama manages to back up his claims with figures every time remains a mystery.
Today, President John Dramani Mahama looked so tired but the Press engagement had to go on. The delegation you see here had just returned from official trips.
The President's instruction was simple. βLet them ask me questions.β
No notes to refer to, yet he responded to every question, backing his answers with facts and figures.
At one point he reeled off figures off head on road crashes, deaths and injuries recorded in Ghana last year. I was like; hold on, how does he have all these figures at his fingertips? π I took my phone to fact check. I swear he was right with the figures.
I thought the engagement went rather well.

Omo, see where an "intelligent" Ghanaian has mounted a container and the assembly is looking unconcern, waiting for a disaster to strike. ππ€¦

New Yorkers marched to demand justice for Ghanaian teenager Javits Frimpong, who was shot and killed on his way to school in the Bronx last month.
We spoke to his uncle and protesters calling for accountability and an end to gun violence.
Pres. @JDMahama makes an important point about Traffitech: speed limits must be clearly posted, with proper road signs and markings.
Drivers shouldnβt have to guess whether itβs 30 or 50km/h. The goal is safer roads, not just more fines. Clarity builds compliance, and transparency builds trust.
