Donald Trump guilty on all 34 felony charges

Spread the love

Jurors in the New York criminal trial against former President Donald Trump have convicted him of 34 felony counts of falsified business records.

This legal rollercoaster has taken Trump from the highest office in the land to a courtroom where he was convicted of falsifying business records in connection with a hush money payment to an adult film star. This is the first time a former or sitting U.S. president has been convicted of criminal charges.

The jurors said they unanimously agreed that Trump falsified business records to conceal a $130,000 hush money payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels to influence the outcome of the 2016 election.

Trump, now faces the possibility of prison time, which would be a rather significant change of scenery from his previous residences at Trump Tower and the White House.

President John Dramani Mahama has recently announced new appointments to enhance Ghana’s national security framework.

Before his official inauguration, Mahama established a six-member interim team to manage national security issues. This team, effective from January 7, 2025, is led by Prosper Douglas Bani, a former Minister for the Interior. Other members include Lt. General Peter Augustine Blay (Rtd.), former Chief of Defence Staff, and Kofi Totobi Quakyi, former Minister for National Security, among others. This team was set to oversee national security operations until permanent appointments could be made.

After his swearing-in, Mahama has made several key appointments related to security. Prosper Bani has been tasked with leading the Interim Security Taskforce. Additionally, there are mentions of Kofi Boakye, Charles Kipo, and others in new security roles, indicating a comprehensive approach to reorganizing the security sector.

President Mahama has also emphasized addressing security issues in the Bawku region, promising key appointments this week to tackle the ongoing conflict. He aims to restore lasting peace in the area by prioritizing security concerns.

These appointments reflect Mahama’s commitment to enhancing national security, ensuring stability during the transition period, and addressing immediate security concerns. The inclusion of experienced professionals in these roles suggests an intention to leverage their expertise for effective governance and security management.

These actions align with Mahama’s broader agenda to streamline government operations and focus on key areas like security, which he highlighted during his campaign and in his first days in office.

President John Dramani Mahama embarked on a peace mission to Bawku and Nalerigu on January 14, 2025, aiming to address the long-standing conflict in these areas. His visit was part of efforts to engage with conflicting factions and key stakeholders to promote dialogue and foster lasting peace.

Mahama met with the Bawku Naaba, Zug-raan Asigri Abugrago Azoka II, and the overlord of the Mamprugu traditional area, Nayiiri Bohagu Abdulai Mahami, to discuss security and peace initiatives. He also held meetings with top security chiefs in Accra before heading to Bawku, emphasizing his administration’s commitment to resolving the conflict.

President Mahama assured the residents of Bawku that his administration would prioritize their security concerns. He promised key security appointments within the week to address the ongoing crisis, underlining his commitment by stating that these new appointees would make Bawku one of their top priorities. This includes roles like the Minister of Defense, National Security Advisor, and others.

The visit has been viewed positively by some, with security analysts like Colonel Festus Aboagye (Rtd) suggesting that it sends a strong message to conflicting parties to exercise caution and prioritize peace. The National Peace Council also described Mahama’s visit as critical for achieving lasting peace in Bawku.

The peace mission comes in the context of recent events, including an attack on a truck in Walewale, which highlights the ongoing insecurity in the region. Mahama’s visit was also set against the backdrop of his campaign promises to resolve the Bawku conflict if elected, indicating a continuation of efforts to bring stability to the region.

This mission reflects a broader vision for a united Ghana, where disputes are settled through diplomacy and mutual understanding. However, the effectiveness of these engagements will depend on the follow-through of the promises made and the cooperation of all involved parties.
