At The High Street Journal (THSJ), we’ve always believed in the power of words to change the world. But let’s face it, sometimes words need a little help. Enter Makaveli, the cartoonist whose pen is sharper than most political manifestos. Together, we’re bringing you news with an edge, a chuckle, and maybe a well-placed jab or two.
Makaveli has spent years turning Ghana’s biggest issues, corruption, bad roads, illegal mining, into biting satire. While politicians debate and committees stall, his cartoons cut straight to the point, often leaving us wondering why no one thought to say it that way sooner. Now, his artistry will sit alongside THSJ’s investigative pieces, giving the news the visual punch it needs to stick.







This isn’t just about making you laugh (though, trust us, you will). It’s about making you think, act, and maybe even share that cartoon on WhatsApp with the caption, “See Ghana!” Whether it’s galamsey polluting rivers or potholes turning roads into obstacle courses, Makaveli’s illustrations will bring a fresh, unfiltered perspective to stories that impact all of us.
Why this collaboration? Simple. At THSJ, we’ve realized that serious news doesn’t always have to feel, well, so serious. Sometimes, the best way to highlight a problem is with a bit of humor, a lot of truth, and just enough sting to make it unforgettable.
The first fruits of this partnership drop tomorrow, and trust us, they’re worth it. THSJ and Makaveli are here to show you that news can be insightful, impactful, and yes, a little cheeky. Because let’s be honest if we can’t laugh at our problems, we might never solve them.
