Secular and Christian leadership: Reclaiming ethics and integrity for national development

By Dr. Emmanuel Dei-Tumi, Executive Director – AFLIGA

Across our nation and continent, there is a growing cry for leadership that does more than manage systems — leadership that inspires trust, restores hope, and unites people around a moral and non-partisan national vision.

Lifestyle vs. Legacy: How the pressure to “look good and successful” is undermining values and ethical behaviour in Ghana

By Dr. Emmanuel Dei-Tumi, Executive Director – AFLIGA

In today’s Ghana, a silent but powerful cultural shift is underway. More and more, the pursuit of, and admiration for titles, status, expensive lifestyles, flashy appearances, and public displays of riches is overshadowing the virtues of modesty that once defined our national character.

A growing number of young people now believe that success must be loudly visible, and this desire to be seen as prosperous has become one of the subtle drivers of corruption and unethical behaviours across the fabric of our society in recent times.
