Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning. UNHCR is preparing for at least 10,000 new arrivals but warned that capacity is rapidly diminishing. Markazi refugee village, designed for 5,000 people, was already hosting more than 2,700 Yemenis and 1,500 Eritreans. More than 100,000 people have also been displaced ins...

GHANA: THE LAW TO INVESTIGATE UNEXPLAINED WEALTH OF PEOPLE IS A BAD IDEA - CLARA KASSER-TEE. (PHOTO).


 The Law To Investigate Unexplained Wealth Of People Is A Bad Idea - Clara Kasser-Tee


Legal influencer,  Clara Kowlaga Kasser-Tee, has cautioned that Parliament’s legislation of a lifestyle audit for individuals suspected of amassing unexplained wealth will negatively impact the fight against corruption.


She believes that the corrupt people are smarter and will always beat the system, especially if a legislative measure is being set to curb it


According to her, such persons will certainly resort to the use of sophisticated structuring that will legally conceal ownership.


Clara Kowlaga Kasser-Tee stated that they would rather hoard proceeds in offshore accounts rather than keep it in the country and live lavishly.


Her statement comes after Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, announced that Parliament is set to begin drafting legislation to support lifestyle audits for individuals suspected of amassing unexplained wealth, marking a significant step toward enhancing Ghana’s fight against corruption.


She believes the law being drafted by Parliament is a bad idea because “There will be more capital flight, and other economies will benefit at the expense of the Ghanaian economy. This is not how to fight corruption”.


She made this known in a post shared via social media, “This may have a persecution effect, and give a populist impression of fighting corruption, but no, it will not fight corruption. I repeat, it will not fight corruptuon. The truly corrupt are smarter than that.


Where do you think the truly corrupt will keep their loot? In Ghana? Do you know how many offshore banks will gladly receive the loot, and keep ‘confidentiality? Do you know sophisticated structuring that will legally conceal ownership? Lets keep.targeting small fishes, just as we have been doing with plaintain thieves.


Until someone complained that so much dollars was stolen from their room, who suspected they had that much ? Did you see them in overly flamboyant lives?


This law is a bad idea. There will be more capital flight, and other economies will beneft at the expense of the Ghanaian economy. This is not how to fight corruption”.
