  BRIDGING FAITH AND SCIENCE: EXPLORING THE EARTH'S AGE THROUGH THEOLOGY AND GEOLOGY   The age of the Earth stirs an engaging dialogue that spans across the realms of science, theology, and philosophy. Our quest to understand our planet's ancient past confronts us with two main narratives: the Biblical chronology of creation and the scientific estimation of the Earth’s age. These perspectives, seemingly at odds, have led theologians and scientists into a profound exploration of time, existence, and the origins of our world.   The Biblical Chronology and Its Calculation The Bible presents a lineage from the creation of Adam and Eve through the birth and death of Jesus Christ, culminating in our modern era. If we follow the genealogies listed in the Bible, a rough estimation places the creation of Adam at about 4004 BC, making the period from Adam to Jesus approximately 4000 years. Accounting for the time from Jesus's death around 33 AD to the year 2024, it leads

  GHANA'S QUEST FOR GOOD GOVERNANCE: THE IMPERATIVE FOR CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM   Since adopting the 1992 Constitution, Ghana has embarked on a turbulent journey toward establishing a stable, democratic governance structure. The original intention for creating this Constitution was a desire for democratic governance and political stability, which has shaped the country's Fourth Republic by instituting a presidential system and emphasizing human rights and the rule of law.   Enshrined in the spirit of the 1957, 1969, and 1979 Constitutions, the 1992 Constitution was to decentralize government power, demonstrating a commitment to extend political participation and protect human rights. Yet, despite these noble aspirations, Ghana's route to fostering transparent and accountable governance has been fraught with challenges, chief among them being the unfulfilled promise of constitutional reform and the pervasive issue of corruption among the political elite.   The 1992 Constit
