Woman on trial for kidnapping and ‘selling’ daughter

A South African woman went on trial Monday charged with kidnapping and selling her young daughter in a case that gained national attention.

Kelly Smith is charged alongside her partner and another man over the disappearance of her daughter Joshlin more than a year ago. Joshlin, who was 6 when she disappeared, is still missing following a nationwide police hunt.

Smith whose full name is Racquel Chantel Smith was charged with kidnapping and human trafficking. Prosecutors accused her of having “sold, delivered or exchanged” the six-year-old and lied about her disappearance.

daughter
All three defendants pleaded not guilty to the charges as the trial opened in a sports hall in the small coastal town of Saldanha Bay.
The trial was moved to the hall to allow members of the community to attend.

Smith won sympathy across South Africa in the early days of Joshlin’s disappearance and neighbors joined together to help police search for the child in dunes near the impoverished settlement of shacks and small houses where they lived. Smith claimed she left Joshlin with Appollis on the day she went missing in February 2024 and hadn’t seen her again.

 

The case took a shocking twist when police took Smith in for questioning and later arrested her. Another woman who was arrested was not charged and is reportedly due to testify as a state witness.

Prosecutors said in the indictment that Smith had been planning to sell Joshlin and her two other children since August 2023. Only Joshlin went missing. They also alleged that Smith and Joshlin were seen getting into a white vehicle with a bag of clothes the day the girl was reported missing.

The case has provoked anger in the community. Crowds gathered outside the sports hall, chanting “We want Joshlin back,” according to local media reports.

Judge Nathan Erasmus said the three defendants could face life in prison if they are found guilty.

According to reports, the two had just returned from a DSTV viewing center, where they watched the UEFA Champions League match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. While standing outside their residence discussing the game, gunmen on a motorbike approached, identified them, and opened fire at close range.

Police later arrived at the scene and transported the deceased’s body to the morgue. The injured student remains in critical condition.

Meanwhile, in a related incident, unknown gunmen attempted an attack on another Kusasi student in Gambaga two weeks ago, though it was unsuccessful.

The attacks are believed to be linked to the long-standing chieftaincy conflict in Bawku.

Ghanaian Teacher Appeals to President Mahama for National Uniform or Clothing Allowance

Ghanaian Teacher Appeals to President Mahama for National Uniform or Clothing Allowance

A young Ghanaian teacher has made a heartfelt appeal to former President John Dramani Mahama, urging him to introduce a national uniform for teachers or provide a clothing allowance to ease their financial burden.

In a TikTok video that has since gone viral, the teacher, identified as Jimmy, explained that many educators in Ghana struggle to maintain a decent wardrobe due to the high cost of clothing. He argued that a national uniform or a clothing allowance would help teachers save money and reduce the financial strain they face.

“I appealed to the previous government, but they didn’t listen. President Mahama, this is my humble plea: please introduce a national uniform for teachers. We are drowning in debt just trying to dress decently for work,” Jimmy said in the video.

Jimmy’s appeal was supported by a colleague who joined him in the video. However, the colleague suggested an alternative solution: a clothing allowance instead of a uniform.

“We, the teachers, are bleeding financially because we spend so much on clothes. If the government could allocate even 10% of our basic salary as a clothing allowance, it would make a huge difference,” the colleague added.

Mixed Reactions to the Appeal

The video sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with Ghanaians sharing diverse opinions on the matter.

  • @Stephen Abban commented:
    “A specific uniform for teachers might not be the best idea. Our dressing serves as a model for students, positively influencing their sense of style. A clothing allowance would be more practical.”
  • @OheneAboagye shared:
    “While your point is valid, there are more pressing issues in the education sector that need attention. Let’s focus on elevating the Ghana Education Service (GES) to higher standards.”
  • @Avatar wrote:
    “Please, don’t impose uniforms on anyone. A clothing allowance would be a better solution.”
  • @Isaiah Quame Gyekye added:
    “This is part of the reason why some people don’t value the teaching profession. Uniforms? Really?”
  • @Derrick humorously remarked:
    “Instead of pushing for a clothing allowance, you’re asking for uniforms? Who will pay for them? You’ll still have to buy them yourself!”

Some critics argued that introducing a national uniform might add to the challenges teachers already face, while others dismissed the idea entirely, emphasizing the need for more significant reforms in the education sector.

A Broader Conversation

Jimmy’s appeal has ignited a broader conversation about the welfare of teachers in Ghana. While some support the idea of a uniform or allowance to alleviate financial pressure, others believe the focus should be on addressing systemic issues within the education system.

What are your thoughts? Should Ghana introduce a national uniform for teachers, or is a clothing allowance a better solution?

The GHS has urged regional health offices with vacancies to take proactive steps in attracting the outstanding numbers of nurses and midwives. Regional directors are encouraged to use the provided contact numbers to facilitate the placement of qualified personnel.

The move is expected to alleviate the staffing shortages in many healthcare facilities across the country, ensuring that hospitals and clinics have the necessary human resources to provide quality healthcare services.

Commitment to Healthcare Workforce Expansion

The Ghanaian government has been making efforts to strengthen the healthcare system through increased recruitment and deployment of health professionals. The financial clearance granted in 2024 was a significant step toward integrating more trained nurses and midwives into the system. By resuming the placement exercise, the GHS is reaffirming its commitment to ensuring that healthcare workers are adequately distributed to meet the growing demands of the sector.

Next Steps for Affected Nurses and Midwives

All nurses and midwives affected by the temporary halt in placement are advised to stay in touch with their respective regional health directorates for further instructions. The GHS has assured all affected personnel that the process will be expedited to facilitate a smooth transition into service.

Electoral Commission Ghana Announces Allowance and Feeding Payments for Temporary Staff

Electoral Commission Ghana Announces Allowance Payments for Temporary Staff

In a recent communication dated 7th March 2025, the Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana addressed its temporary staff regarding the payment of allowances for their services during the just-ended General Election. The letter, signed by Mrs. Jean Mensa, Chairperson of the EC, expressed gratitude to the staff for their professionalism and dedication, which contributed to a peaceful, credible, and transparent election.

The EC acknowledged the delay in disbursing election-related allowances and apologized for the inconvenience caused. They assured staff that efforts are underway to secure funds from the Ministry of Finance, and payments will be made promptly once the funds are released. The Commission also emphasized its understanding of the staff’s concerns and thanked them for their patience.

Additionally, the EC clarified that temporary staff who received feeding money (provided during the election night) on the day of the election are not eligible for a second payment. This update has brought relief to many who have been eagerly awaiting news about their allowances.

The letter concluded with a note of appreciation, encouraging staff to remain patient as the Commission works to resolve the payment issues. This communication highlights the EC’s commitment to addressing the concerns of its temporary staff while ensuring transparency in the process.
