A CRITICAL STUDY OF THE IMPACT OF UNEMPLOYMENT ON VOTER TURNOUT IN SOME SELEC...SIR SUCCESS PRINCE DUAH DUAH
Today, voter turnout is one of the crucial signals of how citizens participate in the governance of their country. Higher voter turnout is in most cases a sign of the vitality of democracy, whilst lower turnout is usually associated with voter apathy and mistrust of the political process (Birch, 2010). Voter turnout measures the percentage of voters that have actually taken part in an election; the proportion of eligible voters who actually cast a vote. Votes can be classified into ballot papers which were correctly filled out and those which were incorrectly filled out and therefore counted as invalid. Because of the importance of voter turnout, media and civil society actors, as well as the democracy support community and many other stakeholders are concerned when citizens do not turn out to vote. Such communities are keen to understand the reasons behind low turnouts.
In Ghana, according to all media platforms including Ghana Web, the 2023 District Assembly Elections across the recorded a notably low turnout, with officials expressing concern over the limited number of voters at polling stations. The exercise which was held on Tuesday, December 19th and 21st, 2023 to elect district assembly members and unit committee members for the various constituencies across the country, had few people turning up to vote. The low voter turnout was attributed to a number of factors including lack of civic education, low trust in the local government system, unemployment and also voting on a working day. Poor voter turnout goes out to weaken our democracy and ultimately slow our development as a country. Based on the above concern, it has become very necessary to have a critical study of the impact of unemployment on voter turnout in some selected electoral areas in the Kumasi Metropolis in Ghana.

Today, Thursday, 8th February 2024, I would like to submit self- effacing recommendations on the visionary activities of the Secretariat for Further Education of the National Union of Ghana Students as stipulated in a report by the chairman, Hon. David Kwaku Xefu. It is not the usual rhetoric which is full of grammar yet unachievable within the period of service. I write not in my own interest nor the interest of my university of affiliation but I write in the sole interest of all Ghanaian students who are studying hard and trusting God to successfully migrate to the various tertiary institutions. Indeed, Vision is important and its considered as the pillar and bedrock for bringing about innovation in any association. Without appropriate vision, all goes wild. It is the drive way through which institutions can take to reach greater heights. The recommendations have been structured as follows:
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Leaders like to act in the designation of the coming time and not just for the time being (Sashkin et al., 1993). Competition that has arisen among various student groups in the universities in Ghana, the issue of effective policy and its implementation, curriculum change and innovation, the introduction of new programmes that are market driven, among others, are issues that can be solved through visionary leadership and activities. Emerging concerns like bursary allocation for graduate students, skills training, research fund for graduate students, policies on welfare and health, transit from traditional pedagogy to digitized learner- centred pedagogy and the need for e- learning, call for leadership with a long sight (Eddy and VanDerLinden, 2006). The need for visionary leadership and activities arises in such contexts.

Today, Friday, 1st December 2023, I write as the Founder and Director of Sustainable and Inclusive Green Africa to add my voice to the voices of heroes and heroines of our planet who have converged at United Arab Emirates for the Conference of the Parties 28 to achieve a sustainable healthy planet.
First, I would like to congratulate H.E. Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, President for COP28 UAE, the UNFCCC Executive Secretary alongside the UN Climate Change High-Level Champion, H. E. Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, leadership of various continents and countries and all other stakeholders for making this historical conference possible. It is certainly the meeting of heroes and heroines of our generation who believe that together we can save our planet and the future of the next generation will not be sabotaged and stagnated by the negative impact of climate change.
I believe it is time for the world to pledge; pledge to come together to drastically reduce global warming; pledge to decentralize the combat process for the International, local, national, regional, communities and individuals to effectively participate in our quest to save the planet; pledge to adhere to strategic actions in limiting global warming to 1.5°C; pledge to improve the capacities of developing or vulnerable countries by strengthening their climate change initiatives; pledge to encourage multi- sectoral collaboration on issues related to climate change; pledge to share best practices and metrics between stakeholders.
Ladies and Gentlemen, and Leaders of our world, I was happy with the statement made by Ursula Van der Leyen, the President of the European Commission, “I will push for keeping 1.5°C within reach… Europe is fully doing its part and ready to show the way.”. Certainly, Europe is fully doing its part as well as Africa, Asia, North America, Antarctica, South America and Oceania. The world must understand that it is only in shared unity that we can address the many challenges of climate change. We all need to come together and fully participate in achieving 1.5°C in global warming, phasing out fossil fuels, boosting renewable energy and energy efficiency, increase climate finance and strategies for vulnerable communities and countries to adapt to change. It’s a pledge for shared unity and full participation from all unions, associations and countries.
IT’S A PLEDGE FOR POSSIBILITY to make life better for children, the youth and the aged and for the next generation and we can certainly do it. ITS TIME TO PLEDGE FOR SUSTAINABLE HEALTHY PLANET

Today, 1st December 2023, I would like to add my voice to the millions of Ghanaians across the nations in congratulating our hardworking, dedicated and resilient farmers for the significant role they play in the development of our beloved nation, Ghana.
Agricultural development has enormous benefits including food security or supporting livelihoods through food, habitat; the creation of employment; the generation of foreign exchange earnings; provision of raw materials; building strong economies through trade. According to Analysis from the World Bank, agriculture can help decrease poverty for 75% of the world's poor, who live in rural areas and work mainly in farming. This certainly suggests that the government and stakeholders should pay critical attention to agriculture and its value chain in boosting the livelihood of the rural poor, reducing climate effects and promoting food security.
To the extremely hardworking and resilient farmers, we say, “AYEKOO”

Today, Saturday, 25th November 2023, I officially write to congratulate the Parliament of Ghana for its thirty (30) years of continuous parliamentary democracy and promotion of sustainable peace and security across the various regions in the country. It is a fact that Parliament has advanced as we have seen so many changes from passing of many important bills including the Right to Information Act, National Identification Authority Act to increment in the number of Parliamentary seats to the current Rt. Hon. Speaker of Parliament not having any connection with the ruling political party and a whooping forty (40) out of the total Membership of the Main House of Parliament are women, just to mention a few. We are happy that the Parliament of Ghana has made significant progress as it was adjudged the Best Open Parliament in Africa for the year 2022 by the Open Parliament Index. So we have made progress as a country with regards to our Legislation, nevertheless there is still more to do.
We preach true democracy everywhere as a country and it is good. Nevertheless, democracy without the active involvement of half of its population is not democracy. So, in moving forward towards the attainment of true democracy, we need to deliberately advance the course of women and the vulnerable in politics, peace and security.
With all due respect, I would like the Parliament of Ghana to use its noble platform to advance the course of women in politics and security. Studies have shown that full participation of women in democracy leads to sustainable peace and security. The Parliament of Ghana in its next phase must come out with policies, programs and strategies to remove the main obstacles women face when entering into politics. Though, its difficult but it can be achieved so let’s start today.
In my constituency, Nhyiaeso Constituency and all across Ghana, we have very few heroic women who are aspiring either as Assembly Members or Unit Committee Members in the forth coming District Assembly Elections 2024. This is largely due to structural, socioeconomic, institutional and cultural barriers, and as a result, many women feel that they do not fit the mold of a leader, and therefore are not confident in pursuing leadership roles. The Legislative Arm of Government upon consultation with experts can set a benchmark for the representation of women in governmental institutions in order to promote full equitable participation and also create and maintain a strong and vibrant democracy in the country.
The truth is that, when women are empowered as political leaders, countries experience high living standards and positive progress in education, infrastructure and health, and this singularly promotes gender equity and strengthen our democracy. Ghana must certainly move forward but we must all come together and be intentional about the decisions of today so as to be assured of a brighter tomorrow.

CONSTRUCTIVE ARGUMENT AND NEITHER NOT RELIGION NOR ETHNICITY- GHANA TODAY- SU...SIR SUCCESS PRINCE DUAH DUAH
Today, 13th November 2023, I write in the interest of all citizens and our beloved nation Ghana, as the Referee in the Ghanaian Political space to bring peace, unity and tolerance and sensitize the political arena and throughout media with good practices. True democracy ensures full participation of all citizens without entertaining any dominance nor minority; true democracy stands to respect and give a voice to all citizens irrespective of their religion or ethnic background.
After the election of the flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party, I realized throughout last week that people were engaging in baseless, needless and unpatriotic argument with regards to H. E. Bawumia’s ability to win the Presidency as a Muslim. I have been waiting for such individuals to end the conversation, and since they are not, I decided to whistle for foul against such unpatriotic, needless and unprogressive conversations. Listen, Politics should be based on constructive argument, void of abusive words and geared towards the progress of all citizens.
Have we forgotten, Great Ghanaian People? Have we forgotten how such unbridled conversation have destroyed the hope and aspiration of many nations? Have we forgotten how unpatriotic religious and ethnic discourse have trashed the dreams of many citizens in Balkans, Chechnya, Iraq, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Darfur, as well as in certain parts of Nigeria. Do I need to educate you? Some empirical studies have shown that thousands of Nigerians have been left dead, wounded and homeless over the years due to constant religious strife pitting people of different religions against each other (Okpanachi 2010); Is this what we want? I believe its absolutely no for any normal Ghanaian citizen.
As the Referee in the Ghanaian political space, I would like to offer relevant vision pathways to both National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Now, I realized from my 10 hours research on Saturday, 11th November 2023 that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has one of the best Internationally accepted themes for Election 2024. Unfortunately, they are not talking about it. What is this theme? THE FUTURE WE WANT. THE FUTURE WE WANT was first adopted during the RIO +20 Conference which acknowledged the need to transition to a Sustainable and Inclusive Green Economy. The Sustainable and Inclusive Green Economy concept can be seen as a tool to implement sustainable development in which the environment-economy equation is solved through a focus on new opportunities. THE FUTURE WE WANT as a theme, coiled from Sustainable Inclusive Green Economy comes with a lot of opportunities including low carbon, efficient and clean in production, but also inclusive in consumption and outcomes, based on sharing, circularity, collaboration, solidarity, resilience, opportunity and interdependence. Gladly, all markets globally are shifting towards environmentally friendly goods and services. AKOSOMBO DAM SPILLAGE- APOLOGISE AND SUPPORT THE AFFECTED INDIVIDUALS- PRINCE...

Today, 9th November 2023, I write constructively to add my voice to the discussion that was held at the Main House of Parliament concerning Akosombo Dam Spillage.
First, I would like to thank Honorable Members of Parliament for their diverse expert advice in salvaging the situation, and must say that such discussions stand to strengthen our democracy and should be encouraged.
Where are we, Good People? We are at a point where people have been displaced and have almost lost everything including shelter, clothing, food, family and heritage and almost everything that makes them unique. This is where we are and the Volta River Authority (VRA), instead of rendering an apology to those affected, is still insisting that we inform them. Please, VRA, if your planning and sensitization were good enough, we wouldn’t have gotten here. So I would like to assist the VRA with some measures to add it to their solution plate to serve all the good affected individuals of the Lower Volta environs.
The first step for the VRA to undertake is to APOLOGISE TO THOSE AFFECTED. Sincerely, the VRA may have planned but it didn’t go as expected so you apologize. Apologizing shows that you are honest, respect the affected people’s feelings and gives you some level of integrity. This should be live on air and also written and published so as to counter all the news circulating on the media.
Moreover, the VRA and the government of Ghana together with all other stakeholders including Members of Parliament in those affected areas must collaborate and come up with pragmatic short timely measures in salvaging the situation. Listen, they are first humans, and then Ghanaians who are brothers and sisters and cannot be left to live in those places so lets act quickly. If it were you, what would you have done? And lets not forget that children, youth, the aged and the vulnerable are all involved in this predicament. So lets work together and save the situation.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT YES WE CAN, IF WE PUT ASIDE PARTISAN AND FOCUS ON CITIZENSHIP AS GHANAIANS

Today, 7th November 2023, I write as a citizen with so much love to see the children, youth, aged and all that concerns my beloved nation Ghana prosper and thrive as a well- decorated peaceful and united democratic nation. I want to forever see the children of this land have access to quality education and laugh and live happily without any form of restriction on their rights; the youth empowered in their minds and hands with true education to be able to work diligently towards the country’s growth; and certainly, want to see the aged walk on the streets of Ghana without having to turn corners for their safety. True Democracy according to its original meaning invests power in the people (citizens) and not in an individual or group.
I have seen billboards erected across Ghana and all through social media that stands against the democracy and the safety of our people. It stands against our peace, and love and intends to fight against our shared value of unity. The group call itself #TheNewForce and it obviously want a space in our democratic political space. They would not be entertained at any place in Ghana. A leader in mask is an unknown leader with a hidden vision and therefore wouldn’t be allowed into our political space.
Moreover, what the people want is love and affection and a leader who will stand for their safety and progress and ensure true democratic living and not force. If they come by force, they will force us to hand over our peace, love and unity and that which makes us one people.
I hold a Certificate in Elections and Campaigning and also hold Certificate in Countering Disinformation and this stands to corrupt our democracy as psychologically is making the good people of my beloved nation Ghana wonder what is coming and behind this force. There is therefore no force anywhere except the government of the Republic of Ghana, led by H. E. Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo- Addo together with all our democratic ministries, agencies, private sector, parties and good citizens. No other force is accepted except the one that respect our government and the good people of Ghana and wouldn’t hinder our children and the future of this country. I therefore call this #NewForce to show their faces and tell us tangible reasons and stop intimidating the Good People of Ghana with their scary billboards. We are here to protect the nation, day and night and wouldn’t allow for anything that violates true democracy and human rights.
May God bless our nation, Ghana and make it Great and Strong. Thank you

The ruling New Patriotic Party is set to have its presidential primaries on Saturday, November 4, 2024, and the spread of information is very crucial in determining the credibility and authenticity of the elections. Truthfully, information is the oxygen of a democracy and therefore, good quality information is vital in sustaining our democracy.
Its #PeaceOverEverything and #GhanaFirst on November 4 as I write to inform all Electoral Officers, Journalists, Media Houses, Party Officials and individuals to spread trustworthy information. Let's safeguard our beloved nation by spreading peace, unity, love, tolerance, respect for authority, non-violence and shared growth.
A 2021 Analysis found that every minute of the day people around the globe sent 2 million Snapchat messages, watched 167 million videos on TikTok and streamed almost 700 000 hours of content on Youtube. And realistically, most of these are intended to disinform and misinform the public and can result in violence or citizens unrest.
As the NPP heads towards its Presidential Primaries, I urge all stakeholders especially Electoral Officers, Journalists and Media Houses to desist from false, incomplete, bad quality, out of context, hate speech, conspiracy theories and any other form of bad information.

The impact of evidence- based research and mentorship as effective response to future epidemics and disruptions in any sector of the world’s economy, including educational sector have been remarkable. Research and Mentorship seek to identify knowledge gaps in education and motivate individuals to effectively handle those deficiencies. In the last triennial, research and mentorship have grown in importance as it seeks to build students and institution’s confidence, improves communication, critical thinking and problem- solving skills and helps us to better understand the evolving educational needs. In Ghana, the Ministry of Education through evidence- based research strategies is enhancing continuity of safe and inclusive schools by building new STEAM schools and providing good water. Nevertheless, the issue of inconsistent methodological practices and varied definitions for the same topic coupled with the risk of being bias, time consuming and cost- involving makes it difficult to quantify its influence on individuals, institutions and communities.

ASSESSING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF OPEN SOURCE TO RESEARCH IN PROMOTING SUSTAINAB...SIR SUCCESS PRINCE DUAH DUAH
In today’s fast- paced digitized world economy, access to authentic information in any field, including education should be made readily available to the public. Open Source then becomes an important platform in providing the necessary nuance and context in filling the gap in research. Here, students, faculty members and institutions have the liberty to collaborate, share, reuse and exchange scholarly works. Some recent empirical studies have shown that most academic libraries in the world have started integrating open source into their system in order to widely explore, circulate and access scholarly articles and also enhance research works in Institutions of Higher Education. Open Source Systems in research such as RStudio, Koha, Destiny, NewGenLib, Fedora, OpenSesame, LabJS builder, Jamovi, JASP and Zotero are designed to be compatible and interoperable with other systems and therefore speed up innovation. In Ghana, the Government through the Ministry of Education (MoE) in consultation with both public and private agencies such as the Ghana Centre for Free and Open Source Software (GCFOSS) are pioneering the use of open source for socio- economic development in the country. Conversely, some researchers have associated open source with the risk of operational deficiencies, intellectual property issues, lack of warranty and poor developer practices. In the light of this, the paper aims to assess the effectiveness of open source to research in promoting sustainable academic libraries in Africa from the perspective of Ghana. A survey questionnaire was distributed randomly to a total of 300 faculty members and lecturers at the Akenten Appiah- Menka University of Skill Training and Entrepreneurial Development (AAMUSTED) in Kumasi. The data for this mixed research method were analysed quantitatively using IBM SPSS software (version 23) and qualitatively using the responses from respondents. The result shows that a lot of faculty members use open source and are satisfied with it. The outcomes indicate that open source in research has a great effectiveness in promoting sustainable academic libraries in Africa, specifically Ghana. For further studies, there is the need to consider the perceptions of open source in academic libraries in Africa.OPTIMIZING SAFE AND INCLUSIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT TO PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE QUA...

In a fast- paced digitized world, equal access to quality education can be achieved through Safe and Inclusive Learning Environment (SILE) that values diversity and uniqueness of each student in the classroom. Despite their background, students in a safe and inclusive environment always feel respected, happy and valued. A safe and inclusive learning environment provides a positive educational space that considers colour scheme, lighting, heating, cooling and ventilation, furniture and equipment in its construction. It enhances students’ critical thinking, creativity, problem- solving techniques and improves their comfort, well- being and possibly, attitude. In Ghana, the Ministry of Education has set out an inclusive education policy that allows all children to learn regardless of differences in age, gender, ethnicity, language and disability and design educational structures that addresses the needs of all these children. Nevertheless, some researchers are of the view that these literature surveys consider the surroundings of the school system without its effects on teaching and learning. This paper therefore aims to optimize safe and inclusive learning environment in promoting sustainable quality education in Africa.

In today’s era of digitization, libraries across Africa are gradually shifting from piles of books to becoming digital, making it more effective, efficient, usable, accessible, quality and ensuring user satisfaction. Electronic library is a digital setting that keeps and organizes electronic books and their associated documents. Electronic libraries present a new and better platform for providing 24/7 access to latest and updated library materials, improving research and sharing knowledge. In well- developed economies, virtual library is the main source for preserving information and disseminating knowledge. In Ghana, the government through its agency, Ghana Library Authority has setup a digital library contents where students, including those in the health sector can read, watch and listen to eBook, video and audiobook collections aimed at optimizing responsible use of time for children whilst ensuring quality education. Nevertheless, some traditional librarians are of the view that electronic library has challenges which could limit its services, including intermittent power supply, limited access to internet services, poor and sufficient bandwidth. This paper therefore determines the impact of e- library on the performance of health students in institutions of higher education in Africa.

In today’s economic landscape, the nature of occupation and the skills required has been transformed by the advent of digital technologies. Digital technology has a propensity for change and many individuals, institutions and national economies have commended the opportunities it presents, including those in the TVET sector. It seeks to make students, faculty members and industry players in TVET relevant and benefit from the fourth industrial revolution by customizing their learning experiences, discovering new educational opportunities and supporting continuous skills development. As illustrated in the One District, One Factory initiative, the Government of Ghana through the Ministry of Education is poised in integrating digital technology in TVET for an efficient and effective industrial drive. However, some empirical study shows that digital technology is associated with the risk of being expensive, frequent data lost and security concerns, system and machine breakdown and inadequate digitized facilitators.

HMAC SHA 256- PROPOSED AUTHENTICATION ALGORITHM-PRINCE DUAH MENSAH-MPhil IT (...SIR SUCCESS PRINCE DUAH DUAH
Conventional authentication methods, like simple text- based passwords, have shown vulnerabilities to different types of security attacks. Most of all the breaches involve credentials, whether stolen via social engineering or hacked using brute force. Therefore, a robust user authentication mechanism is crucial to have secure systems. Combining the use of a hash function, SHA 256 and a secret key. HMAC approach can be effective strategy for data origin authentication and integrity verification mechanisms. This article proposes a Hash- based Message Authentication Code and Secure Hash Algorithm 256, with the acronym HMAC SHA 256 to solve the deficiencies in Message Digest Method 5 including the traditional username- password authentication. HMAC SHA 256 can be applied to verification of email, authenticate data form, Internet of Things (IoT) and reset password. The novelty of the proposed mechanism lies in a Trust Based System which identifies the malicious nodes in the network and differentiates them from trusted nodes. The trust value of the participating nodes is increased only for every successful transmission and decreased for those nodes that do not send the data towards the desired destination. Using Java programming language, HTML, CSS and Python, the proposed authentication protocol was analysed to determine its efficiency and effectiveness. The study found that HMAC SHA 256 is ideal for higher performance systems and provides higher security as compared to MD 5. The study also revealed that HMAC SHA 265 has a strong collision resistance to attacks and its therefore recommended for encryption and solving the deficiencies in MD 5.A REPORT ON THE ANALYSIS ON WEB AUTHENTICATION BASED ON SINGLE BLOCK HASH FUN...

This report analysis web security password authentication based on single- block hash function, written by Shi-Qi Wang, Jing-Ya Wang and Yong-Zhen Li and presented at the 2013 International Conference on Electronic Engineering and Computer Science. To analyze an algorithm means to study the specification of the Algorithm and come to a conclusion about how the implementation of that algorithm will perform in general. Here, the amount of resources necessary to execute the algorithm is determined and its equivalent running time (time complexity) or efficiency of the algorithm.
A review of some of the available literature provides insights into various web security and user identity authentication mechanisms, single- block hash function algorithm, its types, design and functions.
The key findings include:
The Single- Block Hash Function Algorithm has variable input length and fixed out length
The flow chart in figure 1 of the studies shows that the algorithm is Message Digest Method 5 (MD 5)
MD5 algorithm appends padding bits, appends length bits, initialize MD buffer and process each 512- bit block.
In processing each 512- bit block, a total of 64 operations are performed in 4 stages and each stage undergoes 16 iterations.
Collision Resistance Scenario: MD 5 has a very weak collision resistance and its therefore not recommended for encryption. However, MD 5 can withstand tamper with and replay. Running Time (Time Complexity): The time complexity of MD 5 is O(n), where n represents the size of the input data. it is considered relatively fast and efficient than the traditional password but slower than modern hash functions.
Many researchers research to use Single-Block hash algorithm to realize the Web user ID authentication
MD 5 solves deficiency of the traditional username-password authentication or digital signature to realize Web user’s identity authentication

Integrating Technology in teaching and learning in universities will ensure collaborative learning, incorporate different style of learning, saves time and effort of faculty members and learners, improves communication and access to information, widens the scope of distance education and helps learners to acquire critical, analytical and creative skills. The Government of Ghana through the Ministry of Education seems to be making progress in integrating technology into the teaching and learning process in tertiary institutions. However, the increasingly vital role of data, especially big data, in many applications, presents the field of statistics with unparalleled challenges and many students have phobia for working with data. This study therefore aims to assess the impact of technology integration and motivation in teaching and learning of statistics in some selected public universites. A survey questionnaire was distributed randomly to a total of 200 faculty members and undergraduate students from some selected Public Universities in Ghana, including Kwane Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi Technical University, Akenten Appiah- Menka University of Skill Training and Entrepreneurial Development and University of Education, Winneba. The data for this mixed research method were analyzed quantitatively using IBM SPSS and AMOS (Version 23) software and qualitatively using the responses from respondents through an inductive and deductive process. The outcome indicates great improvement in students’ academic performance in statistics through the integration of technology and motivation in teaching and learning. For future studies, there is the need to consider integrating Technology in all subjects at the tertiary level of education.APPLICATION OF HOMOMORPHIC ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM IN ELECTRONIC VOTING SYSTEM
APPLICATION OF HOMOMORPHIC ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM IN ELECTRONIC VOTING SYSTEMSIR SUCCESS PRINCE DUAH DUAH
The main dominant force to democratic governance is elections. Elections enable voters to choose leaders and to hold them answerable for their performance in office and reinforce the stability and legitimacy of the political community. The electoral process becomes challenging for individuals who cannot visit the polling stall for casting their votes. With the integration of data innovation, electronic voting system framework is all the more intriguing and too helpful for ensuring mass participation in the elections as people have the priviledge to vote anywhere. Nevertheless, security bridges stand as the main worry for using electronic voting system. Electronic voting system has been proven to be exploited by simulated hack attacks. The proposed authentication algorithm guarantees security prerequisites and solves the deficiencies in the RSA and Message Digest Method 5 Algorithm. The system can compute the sum of votes in ciphertext form without revealing the choice of the voters using its homomorphic property. The resulting ciphertext form without revealing the choice of the voters. The resultant ciphertext values will not be the same even though the same plaintext is encrypted, with a size of 4 times larger than the plaintext size. The success ratio for the system is 100% with the maximum number of messages that can be processed is 3.287.937.778 messages. Therefore, the proposed authentication algorithm for electronic voting system is effective, robust and simple and provide users with availability, confidentiality and integrity than the RSA and MD 5 algorithms.Resolutions-Key-Interventions-28-May-2024.pdf

Today, 13th November 2023, I write in the interest of all citizens and our beloved nation Ghana, as the Referee in the Ghanaian Political space to bring peace, unity and tolerance and sensitize the political arena and throughout media with good practices. True democracy ensures full participation of all citizens without entertaining any dominance nor minority; true democracy stands to respect and give a voice to all citizens irrespective of their religion or ethnic background.
After the election of the flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party, I realized throughout last week that people were engaging in baseless, needless and unpatriotic argument with regards to H. E. Bawumia’s ability to win the Presidency as a Muslim. I have been waiting for such individuals to end the conversation, and since they are not, I decided to whistle for foul against such unpatriotic, needless and unprogressive conversations. Listen, Politics should be based on constructive argument, void of abusive words and geared towards the progress of all citizens.
Have we forgotten, Great Ghanaian People? Have we forgotten how such unbridled conversation have destroyed the hope and aspiration of many nations? Have we forgotten how unpatriotic religious and ethnic discourse have trashed the dreams of many citizens in Balkans, Chechnya, Iraq, Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Darfur, as well as in certain parts of Nigeria. Do I need to educate you? Some empirical studies have shown that thousands of Nigerians have been left dead, wounded and homeless over the years due to constant religious strife pitting people of different religions against each other (Okpanachi 2010); Is this what we want? I believe its absolutely no for any normal Ghanaian citizen.
As the Referee in the Ghanaian political space, I would like to offer relevant vision pathways to both National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Now, I realized from my 10 hours research on Saturday, 11th November 2023 that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has one of the best Internationally accepted themes for Election 2024. Unfortunately, they are not talking about it. What is this theme? THE FUTURE WE WANT. THE FUTURE WE WANT was first adopted during the RIO +20 Conference which acknowledged the need to transition to a Sustainable and Inclusive Green Economy. The Sustainable and Inclusive Green Economy concept can be seen as a tool to implement sustainable development in which the environment-economy equation is solved through a focus on new opportunities. THE FUTURE WE WANT as a theme, coiled from Sustainable Inclusive Green Economy comes with a lot of opportunities including low carbon, efficient and clean in production, but also inclusive in consumption and outcomes, based on sharing, circularity, collaboration, solidarity, resilience, opportunity and interdependence. Gladly, all markets globally are shifting towards environmentally friendly goods and services. AKOSOMBO DAM SPILLAGE- APOLOGISE AND SUPPORT THE AFFECTED INDIVIDUALS- PRINCE...

Where are we, Good People? We are at a point where people have been displaced and have almost lost everything including shelter, clothing, food, family and heritage and almost everything that makes them unique. This is where we are and the Volta River Authority (VRA), instead of rendering an apology to those affected, is still insisting that we inform them. Please, VRA, if your planning and sensitization were good enough, we wouldn’t have gotten here. So I would like to assist the VRA with some measures to add it to their solution plate to serve all the good affected individuals of the Lower Volta environs.
The first step for the VRA to undertake is to APOLOGISE TO THOSE AFFECTED. Sincerely, the VRA may have planned but it didn’t go as expected so you apologize. Apologizing shows that you are honest, respect the affected people’s feelings and gives you some level of integrity. This should be live on air and also written and published so as to counter all the news circulating on the media.
Moreover, the VRA and the government of Ghana together with all other stakeholders including Members of Parliament in those affected areas must collaborate and come up with pragmatic short timely measures in salvaging the situation.

Moreover, what the people want is love and affection and a leader who will stand for their safety and progress and ensure true democratic living and not force. If they come by force, they will force us to hand over our peace, love and unity and that which makes us one people.
I hold a Certificate in Elections and Campaigning and also hold Certificate in Countering Disinformation and this stands to corrupt our democracy as psychologically is making the good people of my beloved nation Ghana wonder what is coming and behind this force. There is therefore no force anywhere except the government of the Republic of Ghana, led by H. E.

The ruling New Patriotic Party is set to have its presidential primaries on Saturday, November 4, 2024, and the spread of information is very crucial in determining the credibility and authenticity of the elections. Truthfully, information is the oxygen of a democracy and therefore, good quality information is vital in sustaining our democracy.
Its #PeaceOverEverything and #GhanaFirst on November 4 as I write to inform all Electoral Officers, Journalists, Media Houses, Party Officials and individuals to spread trustworthy information. Let's safeguard our beloved nation by spreading peace, unity, love, tolerance, respect for authority, non-violence and shared growth.
A 2021 Analysis found that every minute of the day people around the globe sent 2 million Snapchat messages, watched 167 million videos on TikTok and streamed almost 700 000 hours of content on Youtube. And realistically, most of these are intended to disinform and misinform the public and can result in violence or citizens unrest.
As the NPP heads towards its Presidential Primaries, I urge all stakeholders especially Electoral Officers, Journalists and Media Houses to desist from false, incomplete, bad quality, out of context, hate speech, conspiracy theories and any other form of bad information.

The impact of evidence- based research and mentorship as effective response to future epidemics and disruptions in any sector of the world’s economy, including educational sector have been remarkable. Research and Mentorship seek to identify knowledge gaps in education and motivate individuals to effectively handle those deficiencies. In the last triennial, research and mentorship have grown in importance as it seeks to build students and institution’s confidence, improves communication, critical thinking and problem- solving skills and helps us to better understand the evolving educational needs. In Ghana, the Ministry of Education through evidence- based research strategies is enhancing continuity of safe and inclusive schools by building new STEAM schools and providing good water. Nevertheless, the issue of inconsistent methodological practices and varied definitions for the same topic coupled with the risk of being bias, time consuming and cost- involving makes it difficult to quantify its influence on individuals, institutions and communities. This paper therefore seeks to understand the role of research and mentorship in promoting sustainable quality education in AfricaASSESSING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF OPEN SOURCE TO RESEARCH IN PROMOTING SUSTAINAB...

In today’s fast- paced digitized world economy, access to authentic information in any field, including education should be made readily available to the public. Open Source then becomes an important platform in providing the necessary nuance and context in filling the gap in research. Here, students, faculty members and institutions have the liberty to collaborate, share, reuse and exchange scholarly works. Some recent empirical studies have shown that most academic libraries in the world have started integrating open source into their system in order to widely explore, circulate and access scholarly articles and also enhance research works in Institutions of Higher Education. Open Source Systems in research such as RStudio, Koha, Destiny, NewGenLib, Fedora, OpenSesame, LabJS builder, Jamovi, JASP and Zotero are designed to be compatible and interoperable with other systems and therefore speed up innovation. In Ghana, the Government through the Ministry of Education (MoE) in consultation with both public and private agencies such as the Ghana Centre for Free and Open Source Software (GCFOSS) are pioneering the use of open source for socio- economic development in the country. Conversely, some researchers have associated open source with the risk of operational deficiencies, intellectual property issues, lack of warranty and poor developer practices. In the light of this, the paper aims to assess the effectiveness of open source to research in promoting sustainable academic libraries in Africa from the perspective of Ghana. A survey questionnaire was distributed randomly to a total of 300 faculty members and lecturers at the Akenten Appiah- Menka University of Skill Training and Entrepreneurial Development (AAMUSTED) in Kumasi. The data for this mixed research method were analysed quantitatively using IBM SPSS software (version 23) and qualitatively using the responses from respondents. The result shows that a lot of faculty members use open source and are satisfied with it. The outcomes indicate that open source in research has a great effectiveness in promoting sustainable academic libraries in Africa, specifically Ghana. For further studies, there is the need to consider the perceptions of open source in academic libraries in Africa.OPTIMIZING SAFE AND INCLUSIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT TO PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE QUA...

In a fast- paced digitized world, equal access to quality education can be achieved through Safe and Inclusive Learning Environment (SILE) that values diversity and uniqueness of each student in the classroom. Despite their background, students in a safe and inclusive environment always feel respected, happy and valued. A safe and inclusive learning environment provides a positive educational space that considers colour scheme, lighting, heating, cooling and ventilation, furniture and equipment in its construction. It enhances students’ critical thinking, creativity, problem- solving techniques and improves their comfort, well- being and possibly, attitude. In Ghana, the Ministry of Education has set out an inclusive education policy that allows all children to learn regardless of differences in age, gender, ethnicity, language and disability and design educational structures that addresses the needs of all these children. Nevertheless, some researchers are of the view that these literature surveys consider the surroundings of the school system without its effects on teaching and learning. This paper therefore aims to optimize safe and inclusive learning environment in promoting sustainable quality education in Africa.

In today’s era of digitization, libraries across Africa are gradually shifting from piles of books to becoming digital, making it more effective, efficient, usable, accessible, quality and ensuring user satisfaction. Electronic library is a digital setting that keeps and organizes electronic books and their associated documents. Electronic libraries present a new and better platform for providing 24/7 access to latest and updated library materials, improving research and sharing knowledge. In well- developed economies, virtual library is the main source for preserving information and disseminating knowledge. In Ghana, the government through its agency, Ghana Library Authority has setup a digital library contents where students, including those in the health sector can read, watch and listen to eBook, video and audiobook collections aimed at optimizing responsible use of time for children whilst ensuring quality education. Nevertheless, some traditional librarians are of the view that electronic library has challenges which could limit its services, including intermittent power supply, limited access to internet services, poor and sufficient bandwidth. This paper therefore determines the impact of e- library on the performance of health students in institutions of higher education in Africa.

In today’s economic landscape, the nature of occupation and the skills required has been transformed by the advent of digital technologies. Digital technology has a propensity for change and many individuals, institutions and national economies have commended the opportunities it presents, including those in the TVET sector. It seeks to make students, faculty members and industry players in TVET relevant and benefit from the fourth industrial revolution by customizing their learning experiences, discovering new educational opportunities and supporting continuous skills development. As illustrated in the One District, One Factory initiative, the Government of Ghana through the Ministry of Education is poised in integrating digital technology in TVET for an efficient and effective industrial drive. However, some empirical study shows that digital technology is associated with the risk of being expensive, frequent data lost and security concerns, system and machine breakdown and inadequate digitized facilitators. This study therefore aims to access the impact of digital technology in TVET for sustainable national development. EXAMINING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF RESEARCH AND MENTORING PROGRAM ON THE PERFORMA...

HMAC SHA 256- PROPOSED AUTHENTICATION ALGORITHM-PRINCE DUAH MENSAH-MPhil IT (...SIR SUCCESS PRINCE DUAH DUAH
Conventional authentication methods, like simple text- based passwords, have shown vulnerabilities to different types of security attacks. Most of all the breaches involve credentials, whether stolen via social engineering or hacked using brute force. Therefore, a robust user authentication mechanism is crucial to have secure systems. Combining the use of a hash function, SHA 256 and a secret key. HMAC approach can be effective strategy for data origin authentication and integrity verification mechanisms. This article proposes a Hash- based Message Authentication Code and Secure Hash Algorithm 256, with the acronym HMAC SHA 256 to solve the deficiencies in Message Digest Method 5 including the traditional username- password authentication. HMAC SHA 256 can be applied to verification of email, authenticate data form, Internet of Things (IoT) and reset password. The novelty of the proposed mechanism lies in a Trust Based System which identifies the malicious nodes in the network and differentiates them from trusted nodes. The trust value of the participating nodes is increased only for every successful transmission and decreased for those nodes that do not send the data towards the desired destination. Using Java programming language, HTML, CSS and Python, the proposed authentication protocol was analysed to determine its efficiency and effectiveness. The study found that HMAC SHA 256 is ideal for higher performance systems and provides higher security as compared to MD 5. The study also revealed that HMAC SHA 265 has a strong collision resistance to attacks and its therefore recommended for encryption and solving the deficiencies in MD 5.A REPORT ON THE ANALYSIS ON WEB AUTHENTICATION BASED ON SINGLE BLOCK HASH FUN...

This report analysis web security password authentication based on single- block hash function, written by Shi-Qi Wang, Jing-Ya Wang and Yong-Zhen Li and presented at the 2013 International Conference on Electronic Engineering and Computer Science. To analyze an algorithm means to study the specification of the Algorithm and come to a conclusion about how the implementation of that algorithm will perform in general. Here, the amount of resources necessary to execute the algorithm is determined and its equivalent running time (time complexity) or efficiency of the algorithm.
A review of some of the available literature provides insights into various web security and user identity authentication mechanisms, single- block hash function algorithm, its types, design and functions.
The key findings include:
The Single- Block Hash Function Algorithm has variable input length and fixed out length
The flow chart in figure 1 of the studies shows that the algorithm is Message Digest Method 5 (MD 5)
MD5 algorithm appends padding bits, appends length bits, initialize MD buffer and process each 512- bit block.
In processing each 512- bit block, a total of 64 operations are performed in 4 stages and each stage undergoes 16 iterations.
Collision Resistance Scenario: MD 5 has a very weak collision resistance and its therefore not recommended for encryption. However, MD 5 can withstand tamper with and replay. Running Time (Time Complexity): The time complexity of MD 5 is O(n), where n represents the size of the input data. it is considered relatively fast and efficient than the traditional password but slower than modern hash functions.
Many researchers research to use Single-Block hash algorithm to realize the Web user ID authentication
MD 5 solves deficiency of the traditional username-password authentication or digital signature to realize Web user’s identity authentication

Integrating Technology in teaching and learning in universities will ensure collaborative learning, incorporate different style of learning, saves time and effort of faculty members and learners, improves communication and access to information, widens the scope of distance education and helps learners to acquire critical, analytical and creative skills. The Government of Ghana through the Ministry of Education seems to be making progress in integrating technology into the teaching and learning process in tertiary institutions. However, the increasingly vital role of data, especially big data, in many applications, presents the field of statistics with unparalleled challenges and many students have phobia for working with data. This study therefore aims to assess the impact of technology integration and motivation in teaching and learning of statistics in some selected public universites. A survey questionnaire was distributed randomly to a total of 200 faculty members and undergraduate students from some selected Public Universities in Ghana, including Kwane Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi Technical University, Akenten Appiah- Menka University of Skill Training and Entrepreneurial Development and University of Education, Winneba. The data for this mixed research method were analyzed quantitatively using IBM SPSS and AMOS (Version 23) software and qualitatively using the responses from respondents through an inductive and deductive process. The outcome indicates great improvement in students’ academic performance in statistics through the integration of technology and motivation in teaching and learning. For future studies, there is the need to consider integrating Technology in all subjects at the tertiary level of education.APPLICATION OF HOMOMORPHIC ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM IN ELECTRONIC VOTING SYSTEM

The main dominant force to democratic governance is elections. Elections enable voters to choose leaders and to hold them answerable for their performance in office and reinforce the stability and legitimacy of the political community. The electoral process becomes challenging for individuals who cannot visit the polling stall for casting their votes. With the integration of data innovation, electronic voting system framework is all the more intriguing and too helpful for ensuring mass participation in the elections as people have the priviledge to vote anywhere. Nevertheless, security bridges stand as the main worry for using electronic voting system. Electronic voting system has been proven to be exploited by simulated hack attacks. The proposed authentication algorithm guarantees security prerequisites and solves the deficiencies in the RSA and Message Digest Method 5 Algorithm. The system can compute the sum of votes in ciphertext form without revealing the choice of the voters using its homomorphic property. The resulting ciphertext form without revealing the choice of the voters. The resultant ciphertext values will not be the same even though the same plaintext is encrypted, with a size of 4 times larger than the plaintext size. The success ratio for the system is 100% with the maximum number of messages that can be processed is 3.287.937.778 messages. Therefore, the proposed authentication algorithm for electronic voting system is effective, robust and simple and provide users with availability, confidentiality and integrity than the RSA and MD 5 algorithms.More from SIR SUCCESS PRINCE DUAH DUAH (20)

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.31052024_First India Newspaper Jaipur.pdf
