]]> Hiplife musician Captain Planet has told Citi Showbiz in an exclusive interview that he has not broken away from the 4×4 music trio as has been recently speculated.

According to him, the rumour circulating that the group has collapsed after the release of his latest hit song, is not true.

“People are asking if I have left 4×4. But I am still with them. The group is still intact and people should expect more songs from 4×4 and more singles from Captain Planet,” he said.

Recently, it was reported that the foundation of the group was wobbly and that a possible break up was imminent.

Captain Planet whose latest ‘Obi Agye Obi Girl’ is gaining rotation on most radio stations had earlier released several solo projects like ‘The Good Bad Girl,’ ‘Sangbelegbe’ and ‘No New Friends.’

Talking about the motivation behind his latest banger ‘Obi Agye Obi Girl,’ he said he composed the song from conversations that go on in our environment.

“I heard a lot of stories from friends and what we call barbers-shop stories and those from movies and this is a story everything girl or guy can relate to,” he said.

When asked if he had had a personal experience before he said “yes, I have snatched people’s girlfriends from them before and people have also taken my girl before but I couldn’t say it because I feared my friends would laugh at me,” he quipped.

Captain Planet’s latest hit ‘Obi Agye Obi Girl’ which features Kofi Kinaata talks about how painful it when one’s girlfriend is snatched from him and how enjoyable it is when someone takes another person’s girlfriend.

Less than a month after its released ‘Obi Agye Obi Girl’ has become an anthem among music lovers.

]]> The Lands Commission says it is worried by the increase in illegal mining operations in  Wa in the Upper West Regional capital.

The Commission says the activities of the “galamsey” miners  are  destroying the vegetation in the region.

A Deputy Divisional Head of Survey and Mapping at the Lands Commission, Sali Ishmeal, speaking to Citi News, admitted  that the situation is worrying.

“It is horrible, they just keep scattering the whole place looking for what, I don’t know.”

“Usually its for gold, but we know there’s diamond and other things as well,” he added.

Mr. Ishmael revealed that “over 20 communities had been affected by” the illegal mining activities in Wa.

Illegal mining has been a major problem for the government in recent times all over the country, including in the Northern Regions where a few people had lost their lives in mining accidents.

The acting Executive Secretary of the Lands Commission, Dr Wilfred K. Anim-Odame, has made a plea to government to allow it retain part of its internally-generated funds (IGF).

The commission, he says, has inadequate funds to discharge its mandate of land administration and, therefore, requires the intervention of the government.

Dr Anim-Odame made the appeal when the Parliamentary Select Committee on Lands and Natural Resources paid a working visit to the commission on July 15, 2014.

He said land service delivery was very expensive and the continuous reliance on annual budgetary support alone was inadequate to achieve an effective and efficient land administration.

He therefore urged the committee to lobby Parliament to allow the Lands Commission to retain 40 per cent of its IGF and in addition keep six per cent of non-tax revenue generated from the Stamp Duty Act.

Plans of the Commission

Dr Anim-Odame also stated that the lands commission had developed a blueprint on the re-engineering of business processes and taken steps to establish the necessary structures that would offer the public an opportunity to access the services of the commission through a one-stop-shop.

He said it had become very necessary after the merger to collapse the individual divisional operational procedures into a singular workflow for land service delivery within the Lands Commission.

“In doing so, we seek to significantly reduce the turnaround time for land title registration and other land services as well as reduce the cost of land service delivery,” he said.

“At the one-stop-shop, Ghanaians will submit their land and other related documents for processing, plan preparation, Stamp Duty and registration and receive final services from the same office without hopping from one office to another,’ he added.

Mr Anim-Odame also added that the commission was working hard to improve its corporate image and management was fully committed to a strategy that would give it a new identity.

The Select Committee

The Chairman of the Parliamentary Select Committee, Mr Amadu Seidu, stated that the committee had already taken the request to Parliament.

He said the committee was now waiting for the new Lands and Natural Resources Minister to assume office before deciding on the way forward with him.

He also assured the Lands Commission that the committee was committed to fighting for the retention of part of its IGF.

“Even if you don’t get the 40 per cent you are asking for, we will make sure you get something reasonable,” he said.
