  • Nominated on day of creation (new). Meets length requirements. I've checked the sources, I accept that Ghana news websites are in that format (Ghana News is run since 1994) and the statements are properly sourced, with a few queries outlined below:
  • "...many believed that he was at the heart of the hacking allegation": who does that 'many' specifically refer to?
  • "Others believed that the unwillingness by the New Patriotic Party...": hence or otherwise, who does this 'others' specifically refer to?
The wording sounds a bit vague. As someone not familiar with Ghanaian politics, this extra context will be very useful.
I think the first hook is the most eye-catching to anyone, I would prefer that to the rest. QPQ is done. Just these two queries addressed and we'll be good to go. - Mailer Diablo 20:45, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but the page is an orphan. Please link it to at least one other Wikipedia article. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 20:19, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: Please what exactly do you mean? Would be glad if you can explain further.CrossTemple Jay 12:52, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
