Haier opens After-Sales Service Centre in Ghana
One of the world’s leading home appliance brands Haier has opened its After-Sales Service Centre in Ghana through a collaboration with KABFAM Ghana Limited.
This centre is expected to be a one-stop location for services of all Haier products purchased from KABFAM.
Speaking at the unveiling ceremony on Saturday, March 30, at the East Legon Branch of KABFAM Ghana Limited, Mr. Mikki Osei Berko, Communications Manager at KABFAM and Brand Ambassador for Haier said, the company finds the Service Centre essential.
According to him, such facilities are established for those who are encountering problems and are within their warranty period to have their issues fixed, adding that all they need to do is to call the centre.
Also, he said that even though customers have confidence in the durability of the brand, due to power situations and other technical challenges, Service Centres are critical.
He said regardless of their short stints in Ghana, Haier has put up such a facility to help address the concerns of their customers.
Haier Regional Service Manager for West Africa and Middle East, Junda Zan, said the Ghanaian market has become the flagship for its products in the subregion hence the need to set up a Service Centre in the country.
He urged Ghanaians to visit any of the facilities any time they have a challenge for it to be fixed smoothly for them.
According to him, this covers different categories of home appliance brands from fridges, microwaves, air-conditioners, gas cookers and built-in kitchens among others.
He added that they have qualified service technicians across and assured the public that customer satisfaction is always their hallmark.

Traders, ‘Okada’ riders take over Circle pavement
• Korle-Bu CEO with staff of Nivaansh MediQas
Activities of traders and drug addicts are contributing to make the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange (Circle) area very uncomfortable and unsafe for commuters.
Day in and out, pedestrians are ‘ejected’ from the pavement created for their safety as traders preferred to sell their wares on that space.
That hinders the free movement of the pedestrians.
The small space left for the pedestrians are also shared with ‘Okada’ riders.
As if these woes are not enough for a commuter on a single day, they also have to navigate carefully to avoid clashes with drug addicts and the mentally challenged.
These people have turned the pavements into their places of abode, covering every inch of space with their wares.
Our photographer, Lizzy Okai, captures some of the unfriendly scenes the authorities must try and deal with to restore sanity to the area.

NDC outlines demands before committing to Peace Pact
The National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, has set forth specific conditions that the party insists must be met before considering signing the Peace Pact advocated by the National Peace Council in anticipation of the December 7 elections.
Mr. Nketia expressed scepticism about the effectiveness of past Peace Pacts, highlighting that they had not achieved their intended outcomes, particularly referencing the 2020 elections, during which eight NDC members were allegedly killed by national security operatives without accountability.
During an August 20 meeting with the National Peace Council at the NDC headquarters, Mr. Nketia detailed the certain conditions for the NDC’s participation in the Peace Pact.
The NDC is demanding that the recommendations from the investigation into the violence during the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election be fully implemented.
They also want those responsible for election-related violence in the last election to be prosecuted, stressing the importance of justice and prevention.
The party is calling for accountability regarding irregularities in the printing of ballot papers and insists that visible measures be taken to prevent such issues from happening again.
They are also pushing for a thorough investigation into the missing IT equipment from the Electoral Commission’s (EC) warehouse, expressing concerns about the integrity of the EC’s systems and the potential bias of its staff.
Furthermore, the NDC is urging the President to publicly commit to respecting the results of the 2024 elections. Lastly, the party insists that the Peace Pact should be signed by key figures, including the Inspector General of Police, the Chief Justice, the Attorney-General, and the National Security Coordinator, before they will consider signing it themselves.
