Koo Ofori, An Actor .

 The Dansoman Circuit Court has adjourned Samuel Seth Karikari’s (also known as Koo Ofori) alleged $50,000 fraud case until August 13.


The adjournment came after prosecutors, lead by Chief Inspector Christopher Wonder, informed the court that the investigator’s incapacity had prevented them from filing their disclosures.


As a result, Chief Inspector Wonder asked the court to adjourn.



In response to the prosecution’s request, the court, presided over by El-Alawa Abdul-Baasit, adjourned the case for a case management conference.


Koo Ofori was granted bail by the Dansoman District Court to the tune of GHC 320,000 with three sureties, following his arrest on allegations of defrauding a US-based Ghanaian of $50,000.

GHANA'S COOPERATION WITH THE FBI: A WIN FOR INTERNATIONAL CRIME-FIGHTING By Cassandra Duku June 28, 2025   Story Source:Graphic online      Ghana’s recent cooperation with the FBI in extraditing individuals suspected of cyber-related fraud underscores the country’s growing role in combating transnational crime. The move follows due legal processes, including judicial warrants and the approval of the Attorney-General's Department, reflecting a strong adherence to both Ghana’s laws and its international obligations.    The suspects in question were reportedly involved in fraudulent activities targeting American citizens through online romance scams and business email compromises. These crimes, though initiated abroad, often have significant impacts in the United States, making international cooperation essential for justice.      Some critics have questioned whether allowing the FBI to operate in Ghana undermines national sovereig...

My New Media Class Experience – Week 3

 📘 My New Media Class Experience – Week 3 Week 3 of our New Media class was one of the most insightful sessions so far. Today, we moved beyond the basics and focused deeply on social media campaigns — what they are, why they matter, and how organisations use them to reach their goals.

Today’s Little Victories as a Student

 🌞 Today’s Little Victories as a Student Today wasn’t perfect, but it came with a few small victories that made me smile — and honestly, that’s enough for me as a student. I arrived in class earlier than usual, which already felt like an achievement. I had time to sit, breathe, and mentally prepare before the lesson started. For once, I wasn’t rushing like a character in an action movie. That alone set a good tone for the day. When the lecture began, something surprising happened — I actually understood the topic. Not halfway. Not “I think I get it.” I understood it clearly. And that feeling gave me a boost of confidence I didn’t even know I needed. Break time was calm too. I spent a moment talking with classmates, laughing about school stress, and realizing that we’re all just trying our best. Sometimes, knowing you’re not alone in the chaos makes everything feel lighter. The rest of the day moved smoothly — no surprise quizzes, no group work drama, no unexpected deadlines. Just ...
