A historic feat was achieved on September 11, 2024, when the Ghana Bar Association (GBA) elected its first female president and first female vice president.

Efua Ghartey, the newly elected GBA president, is trending on X for Thursday, September 12, 2024, because of this achievement.

Other trending topics are Pius Hadzide, Asamoah Gyan, and the Baba Yara stadium in Kumasi.

Here’s a breakdown of why these topics are trending:

Efua Ghartey

Efua Ghartey, an accomplished lawyer at the Bar and wife of Joe Ghartey, Member of Parliament for Essikado-Ketan, defeated her opponent to become the first ever female president of the Ghana Bar Association (GBA).

Netizens are celebrating her and extending their congratulations on X.

Asamoah Gyan

Netizens have expressed mixed reactions to Asamoah Gyan’s statement about no longer affiliating himself with any political party.

Pius Hadzide

Pius Enam Hadzide, the New Patriotic Party parliamentary candidate for Asuogyaman constituency, is trending after a video emerged in which he promised to facilitate travel opportunities for his constituents, including attendance at the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in America.

Netizens argue that allegations of Pius being involved in visa fraud and racketeering, which led to the deportation of about 60 people from Australia, are true, despite the president clearing him of any wrongdoing.

He has come under heavy backlash from the public for his statements.

Baba Yara stadium

Baba Yara Stadium is trending after the Confederation of African Football (CAF) withdrew its approval of the pitch as venue for the next Black Stars game in the 2025 AFCON Qualifiers, due to technical infractions, including an unsuitable playing field.

If the pitch doesn’t pass approval, Ghana’s game against Sudan on October 11, 2024, will be moved to a neutral venue.
