- Kenkubii Urges Emerging Artistes to Rethink Record Label Deals
Ghanaian singer Kenkubii advises emerging artistes to consider independent paths, warning that many record label deals favor labels over talent. Ghanaian singer and songwriter Kenkubii has advised emerging artistes to exercise caution before entering record label agreements, urging them to consider independent career paths that protect their creative control and long-term interests. According to him, many record label contracts are structured to benefit the labels rather than the artistes, often limiting musicians’ freedom while exploiting their creative output. He cited the recent situation involving rapper Kwesi Arthur as an example of how such arrangements can negatively affect artistes over time. Speaking in an interview with Graphic Showbiz on Tuesday, February 3, Kenkubii stressed the importance of patience, self-development and industry knowledge, particularly for artistes who are still establishing themselves. He said building an independent career allows artistes to gain experience and leverage, reducing the risk of exploitation when engaging with record labels in the future. Kenkubii also noted that Ghana’s current music ecosystem provides viable alternatives for artistes to grow without signing restrictive contracts. He pointed to digital distribution platforms as tools that enable musicians to build audiences independently before considering label partnerships. The singer further criticised industry bodies such as GHAMRO and MUSIGA, questioning their effectiveness in protecting artistes’ interests. He described their responses to industry disputes as largely reactive rather than proactive. For artistes already signed to record labels, Kenkubii advised against public confrontations, recommending legal or mediated solutions instead. He emphasised the importance of transparency and proper legal representation, especially when dealing with issues such as exclusivity, advances, recoupment and ownership rights. He concluded by highlighting ignorance as one of the biggest threats facing artistes, calling for greater education and mentorship within the music industry.

In the wake of the Morocco earthquake last September, Makuate's expertise in satellite image analysis proved indispensable, offering crucial data for disaster relief efforts led by organizations like Médecins Sans Frontières. Operating from Yaoundé, Makuate, who works for the NGO Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team, underscores the significance of satellite data in creating detailed maps that guide emergency services through disaster-stricken areas. Despite the utility, the high cost of satellite images—reaching up to $25 per square kilometer—poses a challenge, particularly in times of urgent need. The NewSpace Africa Conference held in Luanda, Angola, served as a platform for Makuate and other industry specialists to discuss the potential of the African space sector, which is anticipated to exceed $20 billion by 2026. However, a significant portion of this value is generated by foreign companies providing services to African nations. Prominent figures like Dr. Zolana João, general manager of the Angolan National Space Programme, echoed Makuate's sentiments on the necessity for increased internal investment in space technology. This approach aims to furnish African governments with precise and actionable data, enhancing decision-making processes in various sectors. With South Africa and Egypt leading the continent with 13 satellites each, the call for broader participation underscores a pivotal moment for Africa's engagement in the global space industry. The movement advocates for leveraging space technology not just for emergency response but also for agricultural advancement, population analysis, and natural resource management.

- How to Replace a Lost NIN Slip
Lost your NIN slip? Reprint via official NIMC channels, or reissue at a centre with police report, affidavit and the N600 fee. If you lost your NIN slip, you usually do not need to enrol again. Your NIN stays the same. You can reprint a slip yourself through official NIMC digital channels, or you can request a physical re-issuance at a NIMC centre for loss, damage or theft. Use only nimc.gov.ng pages and official apps. Ignore WhatsApp agents selling “replacement slips.” Quick answer Try self-service first: download or print a new slip with the official NINAuth app or the NIMC portal at myportal.nimc.gov.ng . For portal login, get a UserID and OTP from the Mobile ID Security PIN, or dial *346*2*YourNIN# for SMS credentials (as listed on NIMC’s Mobile Digital ID page). If you need centre re-issuance for loss or theft, gather a recent police report, a court affidavit for loss of documents, photo ID, and Remita evidence of payment. Pay the re-issuance fee through Remita to National Identity Management Commission. The official fees page lists N600 for loss, damage or theft — confirm the amount Remita shows before you pay. Take your documents and Remita RRR to a NIMC enrolment centre. NIMC’s re-issuance page lists the timeline as immediate once requirements are met.

Using NINAuth or the portal Install only official NIMC apps linked from nimc.gov.ng store listings — not APKs from social media. For the portal: open the Mobile ID app Security PIN for a UserID and one-minute OTP, or dial *346*2*YourNIN# if you do not have a smartphone app available. Log in at https://myportal.nimc.gov.ng or https://dashboard.nimc.gov.ng . Choose Print Premium Slip or Print Standard Slip. Complete any Remita payment the official page shows, wait for the success screen, then download the PDF. Print the PDF. You can cut, fold and laminate it if you want a pocket-size copy. Step-by-step download and print detail: How to Download and Print Your NIN Slip . ADVERTISEMENT If you lost the SIM linked to your NIN, self-service OTP tools will fail until you update that phone number through official NIMC channels. See How to Update Your Phone Number on Your NIN . Option 2: Re-issue at a NIMC centre (loss, damage or theft) NIMC’s re-issuance page covers loss, damage, theft, and change or modification of record. Your NIN number itself is not replaced — you get a new slip for the same NIN. What you need for loss Recent police report Court affidavit for loss of documents Evidence of payment (Remita receipt / RRR) Photo ID What you need for theft Recent police report Court affidavit for loss of documents Evidence of payment Photo ID What you need for damage Evidence of the damaged NIN slip Evidence of payment What you need after a data modification Transaction slip issued after the modification Evidence of payment per data field modified (fees differ from simple loss re-issuance) Current fees On nimc.gov.ng/fees , Re-Issuance of NIN Slips is listed as N600 for loss, damage or theft, and N1,000 per data field when the re-issuance follows a change or modification of record. NIMC’s older re-issuance detail page still mentions “evidence of payment (N500)” in places. Treat nimc.gov.ng/fees and the amount Remita displays as the amounts to follow when you pay. ADVERTISEMENT Self-service online print fees, if any, are shown on the portal or in the app at the time you request the slip. Pay only through official Remita or in-app flows. How to pay on Remita for centre re-issuance NIMC’s re-issuance and fees pages describe Treasury Single Account payment through Remita: Visit www.remita.net . Choose Pay Billers under Bills & Purchases. Who do you want to Pay: type National Identity Management Commission. Name of Service/Purpose: choose the NIN slip re-issuance (or matching) service shown. Enter your name and phone number, complete the captcha, and submit. Note your Remita Retrieval Reference (RRR) on the invoice. Pay by card, bank branch, USSD, internet banking or wallet as offered. Print or save the payment evidence and take it to the NIMC centre with your other documents. Someone else can pay on Remita for you, but you must still appear in person for verification. NIMC warns that another person cannot modify or collect identity services in your place without you being present. At the NIMC centre Confirm you are at an official NIMC enrolment centre. Present the documents that match your case (loss, theft or damage). Show Remita evidence of payment and keep your RRR. Complete biometric or identity verification as directed by the enrolment officer. Collect the re-issued slip when told it is ready. NIMC’s re-issuance page lists the timeline as immediate. Common problems No OTP for online reprint — your registered phone number may be lost or changed. Update the number officially before self-service login will work. Centre rejects incomplete papers — loss and theft need both a recent police report and a court affidavit, plus photo ID and payment evidence. Paid the wrong Remita service — check the service name before paying; keep the RRR and ask NIMC staff if you selected the wrong purpose. Agents offer “instant replacement” outside NIMC — walk away. Official payment is through Remita to NIMC. Scam warnings Never share your NIN, OTP, UserID or Remita details with strangers. Do not buy laminated “NIN cards” from roadside agents claiming NIMC endorsement. Confirm every website ends with nimc.gov.ng before you log in or pay. Do not enrol a second time for a lost slip — NIMC says do not enrol more than once.

- John Mahama's new term offers a chance to transform Ghana’s tourism | Xtrafrica Media Group https://static.wixstatic.com/media/436149_944c029a3bd24c3ca368132a41818d21~mv2.webp
John Mahama's new term offers a chance to transform Ghana’s tourism Dec 14, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link John Dramani Mahama has a renewed opportunity to lead transformational change Ghana’s tourism sector holds immense potential for economic growth and cultural promotion, yet it demands decisive action and strategic planning. With a clear victory—garnering over 56% of votes and a two-thirds majority in Parliament—John Dramani Mahama has a renewed opportunity to lead transformational change. As he takes office on January 7, 2025, tourism must become a priority, aiming for 2.5 million annual visitors and fostering a national tourism-driven mindset. Here are six strategic pillars Mahama’s administration should focus on to position Ghana as a premier tourism destination: 1. Combat Galamsey to Revive Ecotourism Illegal mining, or galamsey, has damaged Ghana’s environment, polluting rivers and destroying wildlife habitats. To attract eco-conscious travelers, Mahama must enforce strict anti-galamsey laws and rehabilitate affected areas. Iconic sites like Mole National Park, Kakum Canopy Walkway, and Volta Region’s waterfalls need protection to secure sustainable income for local communities. 2. Establish a National Carrier and Aviation Hub Tourism thrives on accessibility, and Ghana needs a strong national airline to transform Kotoka International Airport into West Africa’s leading aviation hub. Drawing lessons from Togo’s Lomé hub, Mahama can connect Ghana to global markets through investments in airport infrastructure and regional airline partnerships. 3. Simplify Ghana’s Visa Process A streamlined visa regime is essential to boost Ghana’s appeal. Inspired by nations like Rwanda and Seychelles, Mahama could implement electronic travel authorizations (ETA) and abolish visa requirements for most countries. Non-ECOWAS travelers could pay a small ETA fee, making Ghana more welcoming while generating revenue. 4. Position Ghana as a MICE Hub The Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) sector can diversify Ghana’s economy. Building a world-class convention center and marketing Ghana to international organizations such as the African Union and United Nations would make the country a go-to destination for global events. 5. Empower Communities Through Tourism For sustainable tourism, local communities must play an active role. Initiatives like cooperative management of heritage sites, community-based tourism projects, and fair revenue-sharing systems can encourage preservation and cultural promotion while enriching the visitor experience. 6. Leverage the ‘Year of Return’ Legacy The Year of Return connected Ghana to the African diaspora, creating cultural and economic benefits. Mahama should expand these programs beyond December, promoting Ghana as a year-round destination for diaspora engagement through festivals, heritage sites, and cultural experiences. A Bright Future for Ghana’s Tourism Tourism can reshape Ghana’s economy, create jobs, and enhance its global image.
