General News of Thursday, 26 March 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comVeteran broadcaster, Dan Kwaku Yeboah, has shared his deepest concern over the recent potential monetary compensation for the Transatlantic Slave Trade, arguing that such funds are unlikely to benefit the average Ghanaian. He argued that Ghana has consistently demonstrated gross unaccountability regarding its national resources, suggesting that handing cash to leadership would be a futile exercise. "They sometimes behave like the addicts in our neighborhoods; when you give them gari, they ask for sugar," Yeboah said jokingly. Our current posture in managing resources does not justify the demand for monetary reparations," he added. "It would be better to invest any compensation into specific infrastructural projects rather than handing over liquid cash to our leaders," he stated.
