Nsarkoh condemns reckless prophets, calls for science and fact-based culture in Ghana

Corporate leader and governance practitioner Yaw Nsarkoh has launched a stinging attack on what he describes as Ghana's collapsing culture of facts and evidence, warning that the country cannot build a quality civilisation on a foundation of gossip, superstition, and reckless punditry. Delivering the keynote address at the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research (NMIMR) Quality Week Celebration at the University of Ghana, Legon, on Monday, February 23, 2026, Nsarkoh said Ghana's media landscape — both social and traditional — had been overrun by people who show up to serious national debates "equipped with neither expertise nor preparation."
