A week after host of the program decided to proceed with the show without a representative of the governing New Patriotic Party over what he described as the party's decision to send a representative that did not 'meet the standards' of the show, Newsfile returns this week with a look at all the major stories that made the headlines in the past week.

Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia in the course of the week outlined the government's 103 achievements in 100 days as the Akufo-Addo-led administration chalked a 100 days in office on Monday, April 17. The minority however believes most of the achievements touted by the Vice President remain mere rhetoric insisting the past 100 days of the Akufo-Addo administration has been nothing short of 'incompetence'.

Also, a call by the minority in parliament for a probe into a Government of Ghana bond is expected to dominate today's discussions with scores rubbishing the Minority's calls for a probe as well as the resignation of Finance minister, Ken Ofori-Atta.

The fight against galamsey remains one that many more institutions continue to join. This week has seen a number of media houses come together to push government to put in place short to long term measures that will hopefully put an end to galamsey.
