Against the backdrop of a mounting national transport crisis and deepening rifts within Ghana’s major political parties, Joy Prime’s flagship weekend programme, Prime Insight, is set to host a high-stakes discussion this Saturday morning, January 17, 2026.

The programme, hosted by Razak Musbau, will air from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM, bringing together representatives from the leading political divides and civil society to tackle three of the most contentious issues currently dominating the national conversation.

Transport crises

The primary focus of the morning will be "Ghana’s Commercial Transport Crisis: Finding a Lasting Solution".

This discussion follows weeks of tension at bus terminals across the capital, where arbitrary fare hikes and crippling traffic congestion have left both commuters and drivers at a breaking point.

The panel will likely grapple with recent disclosures from the Land Use and Spatial Planning Authority (LUSPA) regarding idle multi-million euro transport plans and the growing demands from driver unions for the dismissal of the sector minister.

The NPP vs. Frimpong-Boateng: Discipline or Gagging?

In a segment that has already sparked fierce debate on social media, the show will dive into the brewing internal war within the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).

Titled "The NPP vs. Frimpong Boateng: A Case of Gagging Internal Critics or Enforcing Party Discipline", the discussion will dissect the party's recent moves to expel the veteran surgeon after his public labelling of the party leadership as "fake".

The guests will debate whether the party is overreaching in its quest for "unity" or if Prof. Frimpong-Boateng’s public outbursts have become a terminal threat to partisan cohesion.

Teacher Manuals and LGBTQI Content

The final leg of the programme will investigate a developing scandal in the education sector: "LGBTQI Content in Teacher Manuals and the Search for who is Responsible".

This segment aims to track how controversial materials entered the educational curriculum and identify the regulatory failures that allowed it to reach the classroom level.

The Saturday Morning Lineup

The host will be joined by a diverse panel of guests, each representing a critical perspective on these national hot spots".
