  -  as the ban of imported vehicles get on It is important to note that the Ghana Automotive Manufacturing Development Programme (GAMDP) developed in August 2019 has come out with measures aimed at promoting locally manufactured cars for the local market and West African sub-region. A new law banning the importation of vehicles more than 10-years old was passed on March 3, 2020 to strengthen the programme. Ghana's automobiles are mainly dominated by rickety vehicles with questionable standards. Indeed, over 70 percent of passenger vehicles imported into the country are often found to be from five to twelve-years old. The automobile sector has been a driver of growth for the country, as it is one of the most visible sectors to receive foreign investment. President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo recently announced that a new policy has been developed, explaining that the operations of automobile vehicle investors in the country calls for a clear-cut policy to govern the automotive indu

  Progress is always a good mark of man so goes the old saying. It presupposes that if whatever a person is engaged in, is a transition to progress, then, one can only eagerly embrace it. Logically, it is to be admitted that all men are born equal, endowed by their creator with inalienable rights, and among are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In this regard, happiness implies quality education, health systems, economic empowerment, gainful employment, enabling environment, creating opportunities for young men and women to invent, innovate and optimize resources available for the benefit of all and sundry. This requires a selfless front-runner who can assemble experts towards the overall agenda of entities. This profound and insightful statement inspired the multiple award-winning entrepreneur, Mr. Dominic Oduro-Antwi, to muster courage and wage a relentless war on the path of success till he reaches the mountain top of his desires. Having launched the first-ever Health Dir

Michael Kofi Andoh, Deputy Commissioner-National Insurance Commission, has advised the general public on things to watch out for in respect of their Motor Insurance policies. The Deputy Commissioner pointed out these things at the launch of Star Assurance Total Troxy Club collaboration which took place in Accra a fortnight ago. He pointed out five items which include change of ownership, saying if you buy a vehicle from somebody else you cannot use that person’s insurance cover; you need to buy your own cover. He advised that you shouldn’t use an unlicenced driver to drive your car; and more importantly, the driver should use the right licence category to drive. He also pointed out that a change of use for cars should be avoided - indicating that if the car is a non-commercial vehicle, one cannot use it for commercial purposes.
