Prince of Wales and the heir apparent to the British throne, Prince William has sparked controversy after it was revealed he has a 'quiet faith', despite being destined to govern the Church of England.

Critics were disappointed at the heir to the throne's failure to be more demonstrative, but many members of the clergy were quick to support his reported approach.

Debate was sparked after a source close to the prince confirmed he has a 'quiet faith' and 'commitment to the Church of England', and wishes to build 'a strong and meaningful bond with the Church and its leadership'.

The revelation came shortly before the future king attends the installation of the first female Archbishop of Canterbury, Dame Sarah Mullally, on Wednesday. 

Palm nut fruit (often used in palm nut soup) is a highly nutritious, nutrient-dense and antioxidant-rich food that supports immune function, vision and skin health due to its high concentration of Vitamins A and E.

After receiving a facelift a couple of years ago, the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park became more popular with tourists in Ghana and with the African Diaspora community.

In this month of Ghana’s independence, this piece discusses the significance of diaspora or roots tourism, especially for the African continent.

Very early in his strategising towards the liberation struggle, Nkrumah recognised the role of the Diaspora. No wonder he drew influence from thinkers such as W.E.B. Dubois, George Padmore, and Marcus Garvey.

When he eventually became the leader of a newly independent Ghana, Nkrumah sought to harness this community of Africans at large.

In the past, the global climate was balanced and healthy, with a stable composition of gases such as water vapour, oxygen and carbon dioxide.

This balance supported life and ensured steady temperatures for growth.

Today, however, human activities—especially the burning of fossil fuels—have released excessive greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere.

Dear Mirror Lawyer, I noticed that in civil law countries, an accused person who is arraigned before the court is deemed innocent and the prosecution must establish their guilt.

However, in common law jurisdictions, the accused is presumed innocent until his guilt is proved.

The burden of proof in criminal cases is beyond a reasonable doubt. The result is that many guilty individuals would escape justice if the prosecution is unable to present the necessary evidence to prove their guilt in court.

For Hajia Memuna Kaleem, the decision to invest her time, resources and energy into training young people in Northern Ghana was driven by years of lived experience, quiet observation and a deep desire to make a difference.

Her story reflects the realities of many self-made women through the struggles endured, the opportunities created, and the commitment to lifting others along the way.

Sharing her journey with The Mirror last Sunday, she said her path into empowerment work began long before the establishment of her training centre.

Saturday, March 21, 2026, is the 21st anniversary of World Down Syndrome Day. 

The selection of the third month of the year, March, and the 21st day speaks to the uniqueness of the underlying genetic anomaly of people with Down Syndrome who have three copies of the 21st chromosome. 

The official theme for World Down Syndrome Day this year is “Together Against Loneliness which emphasises the importance of social connection, meaningful relationships, and community support for individuals with Down Syndrome and their families. 

Recognising the increasing effects of loneliness on mental and physical health underpins the choice of the theme.  

The Dodowa District Court has remanded two men into police custody over their alleged fraudulent sale of land at Dodowa in the Greater Accra Region.

The accused, 42-year-old Kofi Husunu Tetteh and 35-year-old Daniel Yaw Narh, have been charged with defrauding by false pretence and conspiracy to commit crime. 

They were before the court presided over by Mrs Bridgette Akattah last Monday, and pleaded not guilty.

A new study has linked exposure to stressful social relationships to accelerated ageing, with researchers warning that frequent interaction with difficult individuals could have measurable effects on human health and longevity.

Iftar is the meal eaten by Muslims at sunset to break their fast during Ramadan, marking the end of each day of fasting.

Pumpkin seeds locally referred to as Agushie (or Egusi) are nutrient-dense, fat-and-protein-rich seeds from melons (such as Cucumeropsis manniis) commonly used across West Africa to thicken and add flavour to soups and stews.

Often blended into a paste and fried in oil, it is a staple in Ghanaian cuisine, used to make agushie stew (akatoa froyie) and widely eaten in Ghana with boiled yams, boiled plantains or plain boiled rice.  

Last week, Ghana celebrated her Independence Anniversary. It was a time to remember the sacrifices of our forefathers who fought to give us freedom from our colonial masters.

Today, Ghana is a sovereign nation, free to pursue her unique national development agenda.

Fulfilling relationships are similar to an independent Ghana. Couples often go through challenges as they adjust to each other’s identities.

Dear Mirror Lawyer, I am not here to brag, but I am a very influential person. In fact, I am considered an influencer on social media. I have 4,000 followers on Instagram, and my YouTube channel has almost one million subscribers.

Many companies come to me to advertise their products, and that is how I earn my daily bread. Almost all the top brands in the country, as well as some in Nigeria, come to me for assistance with their brand campaigns. 

At weddings, birthday parties, restaurant buffets and corporate gatherings across Ghana, caterers say guests often go straight for Ghanaian dishes, even when continental options such as pasta, salads and fried rice are available.

According to some caterers and restaurant owners, local meals, such as waakye, jollof rice, fufu and banku with tilapia, are usually the first to finish on the table. 

In an interview with The Mirror in Accra last Monday and Tuesday, one caterer, Beauty Husunu of Cravybites Cuisine, Oyibi, Accra, said sometimes guests even got displeased when the servings did not include local meals.

Dear Mirror doctor, please, why do children keep getting ear infections? What can be done to prevent ear infections in children? 
Worried dad. 

Dear worried dad, Ear infection, known in medical parlance as otitis media, is a frequent cause of fever in children.

The ear consists of three major parts: the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear.

The outer ear includes the pinna —the visible part of the ear—and the ear canal. The middle ear is an air-filled space that is located behind the eardrum.

IF talent were a mansion, character would have been its foundation. If talent were a vehicle, character would have been its fuel. Talent is what we see.

Character is what we do not see; however, it makes what we see exist. Talent is what opens the door to opportunities. Character is what keeps the door of that room open.

Great talent is good. Great character, however, is better. If an athlete, for instance, spends a lot of time sharpening their gift, it goes without saying that they need to spend even more time shaping their character.

In many communities in Ghana, epilepsy is whispered in fear, mystery and misunderstanding, not to mention the stigma attached to it.

For Thomas Larbie, it became a test of love.

In 2006, just when he thought he had found someone he wanted to marry, he discovered that his fiancé had epilepsy.

La Mere Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing maternal health, child welfare, and the holistic well-being of mothers in vulnerable communities, has successfully executed an impactful community outreach program across four key health facilities in Ghana.

Women make up nearly 75 percent of the global Public Relations (PR) workforce, yet 51 percent of PR boardrooms are still led primarily by men. Closing that gap, speakers argued at a recent International Women's Day webinar, requires more than talent. It requires authority, strategic influence and the kind of executive presence that makes women impossible to overlook.

Taking a multivitamin every day for two years appears to slow some markers of biological ageing – albeit to a small degree, research suggests.
