Assistance for tomato growers to process produce My $200 salary is insufficient - Bagbin Accra (Greater Accra) 06 June 2002 - ...But I took a $20,000 car loan Minority Leader, Alban S. K. Bagbin is crying for better conditions of service at a time when the country has been declared HIPC. Looking at the role I play in this august House and outside, I receive ¢1,776,950 (=$220) a month which is nothing to write home about, he said. The Ghanaian Chronicle says Mr Bagbins office has no supporting staff to carry out administrative duties except secretaries. Mr. Bagbin also noted that he uses part of his peanut salary to run the office. He therefore suggested that an annual budget should be allocated to his office since it is as key as other ministries in the country. According to the Minority Leader, since the NPP took over the affairs of the nation from the NDC, he has not been allocated an official residence and he still uses his private residence at Lashibi near Tema for official assignments. This according to him, does not augur well for Ghanas infant democracy. He also lamented that he has been allocated an amount of ¢264,000 to engage the services of a driver and a house boy and wondered how he could engage the services of the these people and pay them well considering the high cost of living.

Extractions: Black star: Ghana, information technology and development in Africa by G. Pascal Zachary Accra, the capital of the West African country of Ghana, is technologically marginalized by any measure. But over the past ten years, the introduction of the Internet, wireless technology and freer radio broadcasts have vastly expanded communications and information. The Internet is widely available. Email usage is soaring. Wireless telephony is growing rapidly. Radio stations are proliferating. Once mired in information poverty, the people of Accra, Ghana now face the challenge of using information and connectivity to their best advantage. In examining how Accra adapts to technological change, we gain a better understanding of how people in poor African cities use technology and what they want from it. Debates over the socalled "digital divide" can be enriched by close studies of lived experience in parts of the world where the revolution in information technology remains more prospect than reality. Preface This essay is meant to contribute to understanding how people in developing countries use technology, what they want from it, how they can and do form communities based on absorbing and mastering new technologies imported from rich countries, and how they might design their own technologies in ways that are potentially more suitable to the conditions in poor countries and thus more likely to raise living standards in these countries. In a world where two billion people live on two dollars a day, raising living standards remains an urgent task.

This article examines the history of architecture and spatial organization in Accra, focusing upon the symbiosis between British administrative and local commercial interests and on British colonial efforts to segregate and regulate architectural space. It also explores the Nkrumah administration's reconfiguration of colonial architectural objectives and argues that the administration advancedin its embrace of architectural modernity and reconceptualization of the urban en-vironmenta distinctive notion of the "nation."
