Building on Custom: Land Tenure Policy and Economic Development in Ghana
BLOCHER 6.20.DOC 6/20/2006 3:29 PM Note Building on Custom: Land Tenure Policy and Economic Development in Ghana Joseph Blocher† This Note addresses the intersection of customary and statutory land law in the land tenure policy of Ghana. It argues that improving the current land tenure policy demands integration of customary land law and customary authorities into the statutory system. After describing why and how customary property practices are central to the economic viability of any property system, the Note gives a brief overview of Ghana’s customary and statutory land law. The Note concludes with specific policy suggestions about how Ghana could better draw on the strength of its customary land sector. INTRODUCTION Land makes up nearly three quarters of the wealth of developing countries,1 and development leaders,2 businesspeople,3 and academics4 † B.A., Rice University, MPhil, Cambridge University, J.D. candidate, Yale Law School.

Exhuming and Highlighting the Nearly Forgotten Gold Coast Intelligentsia: the Life and Times of Prince Kwamin Atta Amonoo V
Gibbs, J./Legon Journal of the Humanities Vol. 32.1 (2021) DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.4314/ljh.v32i1.1 Exhuming and highlighting the nearly forgotten Gold Coast intelligentsia: The life and times of Prince Kwamin Atta Amonoo V James Gibbs Independent scholar, Retired Academic Email: [email protected] Submitted: January 28, 2021 / Accepted: March 29, 2021/ Published: August 27, 2021 Abstract The name K. A. Amonoo sits in the Roll of Honour in the entrance hall of Queen’s College, Taunton, Somerset, England together with the names of other former pupils who served in the First World War. In recent times, focus on K. A. Amonoo has been on his palatial residence, which he built in Anomabo, a coastal town in Ghana, in colonial Gold Coast, as Micots (2015 and 2017) have sought to emphasize in terms of the architectural design of his residence. Therefore, what this paper seeks to do is to bring to light a historically significant narrative of who Amonoo was, as a case study to examine and foreground the contributions of some of the nearly forgotten African intelligentsia of coastal Ghana. Through close analysis, the paper also places a central gaze on his activism within colonial Gold Coast and Calabar in colonial Nigeria as subtle moves to counter the growing authority of the British administration. Utilizing a set of key biographical prompts, the paper reflects on thematic issues such as class and status, modernity, and resistance to British colonial hegemony. Keywords: Gold Coast Intelligentsia, Queen’s College Taunton, National Congress of British West Africa, Calabar Improvement League, Gold Coast Colony, World War I Introduction The name ‘K. -
Second CODEO Pre-Election Observation Report
Coalition of Domestic Election Observers (CODEO) CONTACT Secretariat: +233 (0) 244 350 266/ 0277 744 777 Email: [email protected]: Website: www.codeoghana.org SECOND PRE-ELECTION ENVIRONMENT OBSERVATION STATEMENT STATEMENT ON THE VOTER REGISTER Introduction The Coalition of Domestic Election Observers (CODEO) is pleased to release its second pre- election observation report, which captures key observations of the pre-election environment during the month of October 2020, ahead of the December 7, 2020 presidential and parliamentary elections of Ghana. The report is based on weekly reports filed by 65 Long-Term Observers (LTOs) deployed across 65 selected constituencies throughout the country. The observers have been monitoring the general electoral and political environment including the activities of key election stakeholders such as the Electoral Commission (EC), the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE), political parties, the security agencies, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), and religious and traditional leaders. Below are key findings from CODEO’s observation during the period. Summary of Findings: • Similar to CODEO’s observations in the month of September 2020, civic and voter education activities were generally low across the various constituencies. • There continues to be generally low visibility of election support activities by CSOs, particularly those aimed at peace promotion. • COVID-19 health and safety protocols were not adhered to during some political party activities. • The National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) remain the most visible political parties in the constituencies observed as far as political and campaign- related activities are concerned. Main Findings Preparatory Activities by the Electoral Commission Observer reports showed intensified preparatory activities by the EC towards the December 7, 2020 elections. -

Ebusuapanyin Dentist Poku Goes ‘Home’ ews of the demise of Dr. Fancis Yaw Apiagyei Poku, immediate past Ebusuapanyin of MOBA Nappeared on the various MOBA Year Group WhatsApp plaorms by mid-day on Saturday 26th January 2019. For those who knew he was sick, it was not too much of a surprise. However, for the majority of 'Old Boys' the news came as a big shock! In line with Ghanaian tradion, the current Ebusuapanyin, Capt. Paul Forjoe led a delegaon to visit the family to commiserate with them. MOBA was also well represented at the one-week celebraon at his residence at Abelenkpe, Accra. To crown it, MOBA organised a Special Remembrance Service in his honour at the Calvary Methodist Church in Adabraka, Accra. A host of 'Old Boys' thronged the grounds of the Christ Church Anglican Church at the University of Ghana, Legon on Saturday 24th April 2019 for the Burial Service and more importantly to pay their last respects to the man who had done so much for Mfantsipim and MOBA. The tribute of the MOBA Class of 1955, read by Dr. Andrew Arkutu, described him as a very humble and kindhearted person who stood firmly by his principles but always exhibited a composed demeanor. ...connued on page 8 The MOBA Newsletter is Registered with the National Media Commision - ISSN 2637 - 3599 Inside this Issue...

The Civil Judge in Ghana: Remuneration System and Promotion Possibilities
The Civil Judge In Ghana: Remuneration System And Promotion Possibilities By Justice S. K. Date-Bah* INTRODUCTION The title of this presentation is that proposed by the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung. In the con- text of Ghana, it does not really work, since all judges and magistrates in Ghana are both civil and criminal. The courts established by the Courts Act, 1993 (Act 459) and various Courts Acts dating back to 1960 and the First Republic have usually been vested with both criminal and civil jurisdictions. Under the current 1992 Constitution of the Fourth Republic, only the Regional Tribunals provided for under article 142 of the Constitution have an ex- clusively criminal jurisdiction. These Tribunals in any case have become in practice obso- lete. An examination of the remuneration system and promotion possibilities of judges in Ghana therefore inevitably has to apply to all judges in the country. THE LAW This section provides an overview of the legal framework of the remuneration system for judges in Ghana. Article 71(1) of the 1992 Constitution provides that: “The salaries and allowances payable, and the facilities, and privileges available, to – a) …. b) The Chief Justice and the other Justices of the Superior Court of Judicature; c) …. Being expenditure charged on the Consolidated Fund, shall be determined by the President on the recommendations of a committee of not more than five persons ap- pointed by the President, acting in accordance with the advice of the Council of State.” The purpose of this provision is to ensure independence in the determination of the salary and privileges of superior court Justices in Ghana. -
