    Bases of Chieftaincy Disputes in Juaso in the Asante Akyem South Municipality in Ghana

    American Journal of Economics, Finance and Management Vol. 5, No. 1, 2021, pp. 1-13 http://www.aiscience.org/journal/ajefm ISSN: 2381-6864 (Print); ISSN: 2381-6902 (Online) Bases of Chieftaincy Disputes in Juaso in the Asante Akyem South Municipality in Ghana Victoria Asante-Hanson 1, *, Frank Ato Tabil 2, Emmanuel Brew 3, 1 Francis Tetteh-Osei 1Department of Social Sciences, Presbyterian Women’s College of Education, Aburi, Ghana 2Department of Social Sciences, Seventh Day Adventist College of Education, Asokori-Koforidua, Ghana 3Department of Social Sciences, Enchi College of Education, Enchi, Ghana Abstract This study focused on the issues surrounding the chieftaincy dispute in Juaso and its developmental implications. It involved 12 participants who were sampled through purposive, snowballing, convenient, and maximal variation for interview. Semi- structured interview and participant observation were employed in data collection. This study adopted a qualitative content analysis to analyze data from interviews and participants’ observations. Narrative analysis based on themes under which literature was reviewed was done. Using content analysis, salient points from recorded responses from oral interview and field notes from non-verbal cues were described with some table presentation where necessary or when required. The study revealed that, competition among the ruling gates, intruders desiring to ascend the stool and the quest for Omanhene’s status and opposition from political powers were some causes of the chieftaincy dispute in Juaso prior to the reign of Nana Owusu Akyaw Prempeh. The study recommended that, the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) should take up campaigns to educate people on chieftaincy affairs. This might help to reduce the vulnerability of the chiefs and their people to manipulation by intruders.

The findings in this report are based on bi-weekly field reports submitted by CODEO’s Long Term Observers (CODEO LTOs) deployed in 134 out of the 138 constituencies randomly selected from the 10 regions of Ghana. Guided by a checklist, CODEO’s LTOs observe the general political environment, including election-related preparatory activities by state and non-state actors, civic/voter education programs as well as political party campaign activities. The LTOs also observe the conduct of the security agencies, electoral irregularities and pre-election disputes adjudication. Summary of Findings: The Electoral Commission (EC) is undertaking key preparatory activities ahead of the elections across the constituencies. Radio continues to remain the main medium for civic/voter education in the constituencies. The National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) continue to remain the most visible parties with regard to election campaigning activities across the constituencies under observation. Four key policy priority issues: education, unemployment, health and corruption dominated political party campaigns in the constituencies. The National Democratic Congress (NDC) leads as the party that featured women and Persons with Disability (PWDs) as the leading speakers on their campaign platform followed by the New Patriotic Party (NPP), the Convention People’s Party (CPP) and Progressive People’s Party (PPP).

THE ROLE AND FUTURE OF CUSTOMARY TORT LAW IN GHANA: A CROSS-CULTURAL PERSPECTIVE Julie A. Davies* & Dominic N. Dagbanja** I. INTRODUCTION Customary law, a set of established norms, practices, and usages derived from the lives of people,1 has thrived in Africa, and in Ghana in particular, for as long as anyone can remember. For many Ghanaians, the rules governing topics such as family law and social relations, succession, and certain dignitary torts are as necessary as air yet just as imperceptible. Indeed, customary law is embedded in and inseparable from the fundamental ethos and values of Ghanaian and other African societies.

    Towards Integrated Urban Water Management in the Greater Accra

    Towards integrated urban water management in the Great the in management water urban integrated Towards Towards integrated urban water management in the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area Greater Accra Metropolitan Area Current status and strategic directions for the future Accra, the administrative and economic capital of Ghana, just like cities all over the world, is facing ever increasing difficulties in efficiently managing water resources and providing water and sanitation services to its citizens. Meeting these challenges and adopting a more integrated approach to urban water management requires a firm understanding of the current situation. This book presents a situational analysis of Accra, bringing together a wealth of information and data from different sources, including stakeholder dialogues, in the areas of water service provision, excreta and waste water management, storm water management and planning and coordinating. It is presented and analysed through the Resources, Infrastructure, Demand and Access Framework (RIDA) which provides a thorough overview of the current situation and challenges that the city is facing. This book is the consolidation of a four-year strategic planning process, undertaken by the Accra Learning Alliance, which brings together policy makers, service providers, researchers and civil society. In addition to analysis, it presents a vision for water management in the city of Accra and strategic directions towards achieving the vision as defined by the Accra Learning Alliance. The SWITCH project facilitated this process, aiming to bring about a paradigm shift in urban water management away from existing ad hoc solutions to urban water management and towards a more coherent and integrated approach.
