An opinion piece argues that high debt-to-GDP ratios do not inevitably harm nations; what matters is whether borrowed funds expand productive capacity and are used responsibly. The article cites examples of countries with debt exceeding 100–200% of GDP that remain economically stable, and notes that Ghana's debt crisis reflects how money was spent rather than how much was borrowed.

A Joy Online opinion piece argues that African societies repeatedly emphasize the continent's deficits and external dependencies, risking that young people internalize poverty and lack as identity rather than circumstance. The author contends that this narrative neglects to teach African youth what Africa can become, positioning solutions as arriving from elsewhere rather than being built locally.
An opinion piece argues that effective democratic governance depends on the quality and integrity of parliamentary committees rather than public chamber proceedings. When committees function with genuine scrutiny, democracy strengthens; when they become ceremonial or partisan, national oversight weakens.
An opinion piece argues that boardroom decisions quietly determine whether institutions survive or fail, and that in Africa—where capital is scarce and unemployment high—poor governance in the boardroom carries particular consequences for employees, pensioners, and communities.
A Joy Online opinion piece argues that African families mobilize significant resources for funerals but allocate too little to preventive health measures like nutritious food and health screenings that might postpone death. The article poses a question about why communities are sometimes better at organizing resources after preventable illness and death than before.
Africa records the world's highest road traffic fatality rate, with an estimated 225,000 deaths in a recent year, accounting for nearly a fifth of global road deaths despite owning barely three per cent of the world's vehicles. The World Health Organisation estimates road crashes kill approximately 1.19 million people yearly globally, with road traffic injuries the leading cause of death among young people aged 5–29.
An opinion piece argues that governance takes different forms—political, corporate, boardroom, and traditional—each with distinct mandates and accountability structures. Treating them as interchangeable weakens accountability and obscures who is truly responsible.
Prof. Douglas Boateng called for a change in Ghanaian values and attitudes to build stronger governance, urging professional bodies to shape ethical leaders through mentorship and training, and warning against political polarisation that prioritises party loyalty over national interest.
An opinion analysis argues that privatisation, corporatisation, and public ownership have all succeeded and failed across different contexts; the determining factor for institutional performance is not ownership but the competence, integrity, and discipline of leaders and their governance practices.
