Your most authoritative news analysis program, Newsfile, is coming to you live on JoyNews and Joy99.7FM.

On today's agenda is the state of the Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson ambulance trial, following the presiding judge's decision on Thursday, June 6, to strike out the four applications for a mistrial filed by the first and third accused persons.

Also on the agenda is NextGen Infraco’s 5G contract. On May 30, the government announced plans to launch the 5G Network within the next six months. Communication Minister, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful defended the government's decision to award the 5G licensing contract to NextGen InfraCo, a company established just a week before the contract's approval.

However, the Minority in Parliament has strongly opposed the NextGen Infraco 5G contract, labeling it "inimical to national interest." According to the NDC MPs, the agreement lacks any legal standing.

Stay tuned as we delve into these pressing issues and provide expert analysis on the implications for the nation.
