    Drake reunites with his father, who served a 15-year ban from Canada

    Aubrey Drake Graham, known professionally as Drake, a Canadian rapper, singer, songwriter, and actor’s father, Dennis Graham, has been granted entry into Canada for the first time in over 15 years.

    Drake expressed his gratitude on Instagram, thanking everyone who assisted in making their reunion possible.

    In an interview with The Fader, Dennis reminisced about road trips with Drake from Toronto to Memphis during the summers, starting when Drake was just five years old.

    These journeys continued until Drake turned 17, with the last trip standing out as his son took the wheel.

    Despite Drake being 37 years old now, his father had been unable to visit him in Canada for the past 15 years, presumably due to legal issues.

    Dennis praised Drake’s latest album, “For All the Dogs,” describing it as some of the best music he has heard from his son.

    Drake responded with gratitude, saying, “Thanks Dad… I was so happy you loved it.”

    Known for his playful antics, Dennis Graham once gifted Drake a comically large bra on stage during the final night of the ‘It’s All a Blur Tour’ in Inglewood.

    Drake has been credited with popularizing singing and R&B sensibilities in hip hop artists.

    Each of Drake’s albums has topped the US Billboard 200 and Canadian Albums Chart.

    Drake released his latest album “For All the Dogs Scary Hours Edition” , a reissue of Canadian rapper Drake’s eighth studio album For All the Dogs (2023).

    It was released on November 17, 2023, through OVO Sound and Republic Records.

    It contains six tracks and is a continuation of his second and fourth extended plays, Scary Hours (2018) and Scary Hours 2 (2021), with the new tracks being appended to For All the Dogs on digital platforms.

    Congregants somersault 4 times after touching pastor’s benz in Nigeria

    In a bizarre turn of events, a video circulating on social media has sparked controversy as an unidentified pastor from Delta State encourages his congregation to touch his luxury car, a Benz, as a means of seeking salvation from their sinful ways.

    The video, originally posted on instanija twitter page, quickly gained traction, with the caption reading, “Church members troop out to touch their pastor’s Benz in order to receive blessings from God in Delta State.”

    The footage depicts a deliverance session where the pastor instructs worshippers to physically connect with his car in order to receive divine favor and blessings.

    The unusual spectacle has ignited a heated debate on social media platforms, with many expressing scepticism and criticism over the unorthodox method employed by the pastor.

    Questions about the appropriateness of using material possessions as a conduit for spiritual blessings have dominated online discussions.

    Local authorities and religious leaders have yet to comment on the matter, but the video has sparked concerns about the influence of certain practices within religious circles.

    Some argue that such actions may exploit the faith and trust of worshippers for personal gain, while others maintain that the act may be rooted in cultural or religious beliefs specific to the region.

    As the video continues to circulate, it remains to be seen how this peculiar incident will impact the perception of faith practices within the community and whether it will prompt a response from religious authorities or regulatory bodies in Delta State.

  • Stating your vision is taking you too long – Kabila to Bawumia

    Stating your vision is taking you too long – Kabila to Bawumia

    The former General Secretary of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), James Kwabena Bonfeh, popularly known as Kabila, has publicly challenged Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to reveal his vision for Ghana’s future, ahead of the 2024 general elections.

    In an interview on Peace FM’s Kokrokoo Morning Show, Kabila said it was important for Dr. Bawumia to articulate his vision and priorities to the Ghanaian people, as the flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).

    He said Dr. Bawumia had promised to disclose his vision after securing the flagbearer ship position, but had failed to do so, even though more than two months had elapsed since his victory.

    “Dr. Bawumia, after attaining the flagbearer ship position, you promised to disclose your vision for the country. Vision doesn’t require much. Today is January 17, and between November 4 and January 17 is too long a time not to have stated that vision,” he said.

    He urged Dr. Bawumia to be transparent and accountable to the electorate, and not to take them for granted.

    He also questioned Dr. Bawumia’s economic credentials, saying he had not delivered on his promises to transform the economy and improve the living standards of Ghanaians.

    Kabila said the NPP government had mismanaged the economy, increased the debt burden, and failed to tackle corruption and unemployment.

    James Kwabena Bonfeh said the CPP was ready to offer a credible alternative to the NPP and the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), which he accused of being two sides of the same coin.

    He said the CPP had a vision of social justice, economic independence, and national sovereignty, inspired by the legacy of its founder, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

    He called on Ghanaians to rally behind the CPP and its flagbearer, Ivor Kobina Greenstreet, in the 2024 elections.

    Dr. Bawumia is yet to respond to Kabila’s challenge.

    Dr. Bawumia, an economist and former Deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, emerged as the NPP flagbearer after a keenly contested primary on November 4, 2023.

    He defeated four other candidates, including former Trade Minister Alan Kyerematen and former Energy Minister Boakye Agyarko, with 61.43 percent of the valid votes cast.

    He is expected to face former President John Mahama, who is seeking a comeback on the ticket of the NDC, and other candidates from smaller parties and independent platforms, in the 2024 presidential race.

    The general elections will be held in Ghana on December 7, 2024, to elect the president and members of parliament.

    Incumbent President Nana Akufo-Addo’s term-limited and thus ineligible to run again.

  • Why Tems was bullied as a child

    Why Tems was bullied as a child

    In a candid interview with The Cut, Temilade Openiyi, known professionally as Tems, a Nigerian singer, songwriter, and record producer disclosed the torment she endured as a child due to criticism about the pitch of her voice.

    Tems, who has previously opened up about her early days of solitude, revealed that she refrained from speaking until the age of three.

    The Grammy award recipient shared that growing up, she grappled with self-consciousness, feeling out of place as her voice diverged from the conventional expectations for girls.

    Recounting the painful memories, she expressed, “I was bullied to the point of tears and was a target of ridicule. This led to the belief that I sounded like a boy, or a frog, with the impression that my voice was ugly.”

    Tems further elaborated on the isolating experience, describing how her unique vocal tone made her a subject of mockery.

    “I was always in my own little world. When I did make friends, I would try to make them sing my songs, and other girls had these sweet, high voices, and my voice had a bass.”

    This revelation sheds light on the emotional struggles the artist faced during her formative years.

    It adds another layer to her narrative, where she previously shared that her early inclination towards music was influenced by a lack of companionship.

    Tems’ story serves as a testament to her resilience and determination in overcoming societal expectations to become the celebrated artist she is today.

    Tems rose to prominence after being featured on Wizkid’s 2020 single “Essence”, which peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart following the release of the remix version with Justin Bieber.

    Renowned artist manager and musician, Emmanuel Barnes, popularly known as Mr. Logic, has stepped forward in support of New Force leader, Nana Kwame Bediako, aka Cheddar, urging Ghanaians to allow him to pursue his political aspirations without facing unnecessary criticism.

    Mr. Logic emphasizes the importance of letting Cheddar, a young and aspiring leader, freely chase his dream of reaching the highest office in the country.

    He argues that age should not serve as a hindrance to leadership, asserting that every individual has the right to aim for the presidency.

    In a recent Facebook post, Mr. Logic asserts, “Is only in GHANA that when a young man aspires to take leadership, then he is tagged a thief. Leave CHEDDAR Alone pls. Ghana don’t belong to any family or GROUP!!”

    Mr. Logic firmly believes that such stereotypes should not be unfairly applied to Cheddar.

    He highlights Ghana’s democratic principles, emphasizing that in this nation, irrespective of age or background, everyone has the right to aspire to the highest seat of power.

    The public’s response to Cheddar’s political aspirations remains uncertain, and it remains to be seen whether Mr. Logic’s call to “Leave Cheddar Alone” will influence public opinion on the matter.

I am nothing to be scared of, I came to you as your salvation, I don’t invest in myself alone, I am investing in you …. if you are about to find out the man in the mask because I never spoke a word, you were looking for me, I didn’t tell you I am into politics, whether I am an evangelist, whether I am a conventionist or a revolutionist,

    After this day, you will have to wait for me to share my policies and my visions with you. “

    Cheddar has become a focal point of controversy, with his source of income facing thorough examination in interviews conducted by various media outlets.

    OleleSalvador, an entertainment journalist, advised Cheddar to consistently address his income source in interviews.

    I was nearly raped in SHS – Diana Hamilton reveals

    Diana Antwi Hamilton, a Ghanaian gospel singer, recounted her near-rape experience during senior high school (SHS).

    She said that the horrible occurrence happened at an inter school competition (INTERCO) in her first year at Ghana National College.

    Diana recalled how, as an innocent young lady, her school mother had intentionally lured her out to a few boys.

    “In my first year at Ghana National during an Interco, my school mother asked me to follow some guys to take her biscuits. I did and by the time I realised, one was in front of me and the other behind, they put me in a car. The next thing I knew I was somewhere in Cape Coast, Kotokraba,” she narrated in an interview with Accra-based TV3.

    The 2021 VGMA Artiste of the Year said that it took “the doing of the Lord” to save her from that traumatic situation.

    “It took God to grant me the courage to tell upper sixth formers that I would not enter the house. Right at the entrance of the door sat a woman who was feeding her goats and she didn’t say a word, all she did was sit there and watch.
    For hours, had that woman left, they would have dragged me in and I don’t know what would have happened,” she said.

    Diana Hamilton is currently promoting her new song ‘The doing of the Lord’ featuring Nigerian gospel star, Mercy Chinwo.

    Diana Antwi Hamilton is a Ghanaian gospel musician with several awards to her name.

    She won the 2021 Most Streamed Female Act of the Year Award at the 3Music Women’s Brunch.

    In March 2021, she was among the Top 30 Most Influential Women in Music by the 3Music Awards Women’s Brunch.

    Prophet Odùméje denies fake miracles amidst BBC documentary scandal on late Prophet TB Joshua

    In response to the recent online release of a documentary highlighting scandalous activities attributed to the late Prophet TB Joshua by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Nigerian clergyman and general overseer of the Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry, Chukwuemeka Cyril Ohanaemere, popularly known as Odùméje, vehemently asserts the authenticity of his miracles during a church service.

    Odùméje, often referred to as the lion and liquid metal, claims he has never engaged in fake miracles and challenges anyone seeking proof of his divine abilities.

    He attributes his miraculous powers to Jesus Christ, proclaiming himself as the ordained vessel to combat the devil and his cohorts.

    However, Odùméje’s revelation sparks mixed reactions among Nigerians, with some likening his statements to an introduction for a wrestling match.

    Social media users humorously draw parallels to WWE events and suggest that Odùméje’s background might be influenced by his exposure to wrestling entertainment.

    Below are some of the reactions;

    @fameyuie:  E be like intro for wrestle mania

    I had a distressing experience over the piracy of my recent movie- Toyin Abraham

    In a shocking revelation, renowned Nollywood actress and producer, Toyin Abraham, opened up about her distressing experience after discovering that her recent blockbuster, “Malaika,” had fallen victim to piracy.

    The actress disclosed that the piracy ordeal led to severe panic attacks, resulting in multiple hospitalizations.

    Speaking to reporters in Lagos, Toyin Abraham expressed gratitude for the swift action taken by the Nigeria Police Force, which resulted in the apprehension of five individuals connected to the piracy.

    The acclaimed producer commended AIG IG Idowu Owohunwa for his prompt response to the situation.

    Revealing that the production cost of “Malaika” amounted to a staggering N500 million, Toyin Abraham announced her commitment to the fight against piracy, vowing to protect the creative industry from such illicit activities.

    According to the Federal Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) in Alagbon, Ikoyi, Lagos, two women have been detained in connection with the piracy of “Malaika.”

    The suspects, accused of conspiracy, intellectual property infringement, piracy, and cybercrimes related to the unauthorised use of cyberspace for the movie’s distribution, were presented to reporters at the FCID headquarters.

    In a statement, FCID spokesperson ASP Aminat Mayegun explained, “Following the receipt of the petition, a joint investigation involving the Special Investigation Units of the Anti-Fraud and Cybercrime Sections of the Department was launched, while the unique intelligence and cybercrime assets of the Force were optimally deployed.”

    Mohbad left no will – Management clears air

    Management of the late Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad has issued a response to the recent claims made by the late Nigerian singer’s father, Mr. Joseph Aloba, regarding the alleged discovery of a will thumbprint by his son before his untimely death.

    In a recent interview with TVC, Mr. Joseph Aloba expressed surprise and scepticism over the purported will left by his 26-year-old son, questioning the rationale behind drafting such a document at such a young age.

    He further raised concerns about the absence of a signature on the will, noting that it was solely thumb printed by Mohbad.

    Mr. Aloba also recounted an unusual encounter with a lawyer, rather than a doctor, when he visited his son’s residence after the singer’s demise, hinting at potential discrepancies in the creation of the will.

    According to him, they scrutinised the document, engaging in what he referred to as ‘mathematics’ on its authenticity.

    Contrary to these claims, Mohbad’s management has now responded through an official statement posted on the late singer’s previously inactive Instagram page.

    They categorically denied the existence of any will and stressed that, if there were one, it would have been reported to the probate registry.

    The statement also revealed that all of Mohbad’s bank accounts have been frozen since his passing and will remain so until internal disputes are resolved.
    In addressing the matter of the autopsy, the management confirmed that the procedure had been conducted.

    However, they noted that the results from the samples sent abroad would take several months before being made available for public disclosure.

    Kojo Antwi, “Mr. Music Man,” voices concerns over deteriorating state of Ghana’s event venues

    Renowned Ghanaian musician, Kojo Antwi, known as “Mr. Music Man,” has expressed his dissatisfaction with the condition of event organizing centers in the country, citing poor maintenance and management.

    Kojo Antwi emphasizes the need for proper structures to ensure that venues are suitable for hosting significant events.

    The celebrated highlife artist particularly highlighted the deteriorating state of the National Theatre, describing it as lacking proper infrastructure.

    Antwi revealed that these issues have led him to change venues for his events to meet the expectations of his fans.

    Despite the National Theatre being the traditional venue for Kojo Antwi’s December 24 concert since its inception in 1991, recent years have seen a shift to various locations such as the Accra International Conference Centre, Kempinski Hotel, Accra Mall, and Labadi Beach Hotel.

    This year, the event took place at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), bypassing the National Theatre once again.

    In a recent interview with Onua FM, Kojo Antwi reminisced about the initial allure of the National Theatre for his concert but noted that the charm had faded due to inadequate maintenance.

    “The place has fallen short of being a theatre, and maintaining it has become challenging for those responsible. As an artist, I don’t feel confined to a specific venue,” Kojo Antwi stated.

    He expressed the challenges faced by those responsible for maintaining the venue and asserted that, as an artist, he doesn’t feel confined to a specific location.

    Antwi used a metaphor, comparing artists to glasses that can outgrow their containers as their ideas expand.

    “I did many avant-garde things, but an artist doesn’t belong to a hall. I realized that the place wasn’t facilitating my growth, so I had to make a move.”

    He concluded by asserting  that the National Theatre was no longer conducive to his creative needs, emphasizing the importance of a venue that facilitates growth for artists.

  • Gov’t cancelling the Convention was God’s will – Cheddar

    Gov’t cancelling the Convention was God’s will – Cheddar

    Renowned figure and leader of the New Force, Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, has expressed gratitude to God Almighty for the cancellation of the New Convention event which was slated to take place on Sunday, January 7, 2024, at Black Star Square.

    Cheddar recently made a significant appearance at Perez Dome to express his gratitude and thanksgiving.

    Having been a dedicated member of the Perez Dome community for 21 years, Cheddar highlighted the importance of his faith and the influence of God in his life.

    Despite facing unexpected challenges, including the cancellation of New Convention event due to “unforeseen” circumstances, an event scheduled to take place at the Black Star square, he emphasized that every prayer he directed towards God had been answered.

    “ I started fasting the first day of the year, I do it at the beginning of the year, with the church and by myself, so I was praying that let the Convention be successful so that it can reach Africans but I want to tell you this, everything I have asked God he has giving it to me.

    “So I was expecting more and just an hour before the event I was told the event was cancelled with helicopters and with men, guns and soldiers, you can’t fight this one you have to step back.

    “I went back to God to ask, I thought you said you were going to make the event successful but he said God meant for the event to be cancelled for the event to be successful,” Cheddar stated.

    The Convention was to bring together thought leaders in Africa including Professor PLO Lumumba, Peter Obi, Julius Malema, and others to speak on key challenges confronting Africa’s development.

    Hours after the cancellation, the leaders of the Convention organized a press conference at Cantonments.

    Professor PLO Lumumba said, “We came to Ghana to share a message of hope that Africa needs at this time and there is no better place to begin that message than Accra Ghana.

    “It is in Accra that Osageyefo Kwame Nkrumah almost 67 years ago, spoke to the world and said the ‘Independence of Ghana is meaningless until it is linked with the independence of the African continent’”.

    He said 67 years later, they were congregating in Accra in the very same place where the founding fathers of Ghana stood to make that statement but they were stopped bizarrely.

    Professor PLO Lumumba, however, said, “The message will be served” as the journey of hope “continues with the youth.”

  • NPP Youth Organizer worried about 18 MPs leaving parliament

    NPP Youth Organizer worried about 18 MPs leaving parliament

    The New Patriotic Party (NPP) National Youth Organizer, Mustapha Salam, has expressed discontent about the decision of 18 NPP Members of Parliament (MPs) not to run for re-election in the next parliamentary elections, describing it as a substantial loss for the state.

    In an exclusive interview on Peace FM’s morning show “Kokrokoo,” Salam attributed the mass exits to intense demands and pressure from constituents within their respective constituencies. He shed light on the challenging circumstances faced by MPs, revealing that many resort to using pressure pills to cope with the stress.

    “The pressure on MPs and the political class is not easy. If you run a background check on them, you will realise that a lot are depending on pressure pills,” Mustapha Salam stated. He emphasized the need for a holistic national conversation to address the substantial demands placed on politicians in fulfilling their duties.

    “Constituents often drop by residents of his MPs to demand for monies and other forms of demands,” he added, highlighting the difficulties politicians face in balancing their parliamentary duties and personal lives.

    Among the notable MPs not seeking re-election in 2024 are Kyei Mensah Bonsu, Joe Osei Owusu, Atta Akyea, Joe Ghartey, and Ken Agyapong, among others. The departure of these prominent figures is expected to create a void in the party’s leadership and parliamentary representation.

    The reasons behind the MPs’ decision to step down remain unclear, leading to speculation that retirements, pursuit of other professional opportunities, or a desire for a break from the demanding nature of parliamentary life may be contributing factors. Internal dynamics within the NPP and personal considerations are also being considered as potential influencers in their decision-making process.

    Salam’s call for a national conversation on the challenges faced by politicians reflects a growing concern for the well-being of those in public service, as the political landscape undergoes significant changes with the departure of key figures within the NPP.

    Tone down on your tantrums! – NPP executive tells Kennedy Agyapong

    In a bid to preserve his influential political legacy, the National Youth Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mustapha Salam, has advised the outspoken Assin Central Member of Parliament (MP), Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, to suppress his frequent outbursts about the party.

    Mustapha Salam emphasized the need for Agyapong to reflect his role model status within the party, urging him to conduct himself in a manner befitting the positive political career he has built over the years.

    Expressing admiration for Agyapong, Mustapha Salam conveyed his plea in a local dialect.

    He said “Kennedy Agyapong is someone I really like a lot, and I would like to plead with him to tone down on his rage. He has a lot of admirers in the party and a lot of people who look up to him and the legacy he has built in the party. I don’t think that anything should wash it away. I want to once again reiterate that he should tone down his tantrums.”

    The controversial Ghanaian politician Kennedy Agyapong was captured in a viral video charging delegates in Bantama to reject their current Member of Parliament Francis Asenso Boakye, during the New Patriotic Party (NPP) primaries.

    Amid wild allegations, Agyapong who is captured in a viral video revealed how the sitting MP engaged in dodgy dealings while serving as a deputy chief of staff at the Jubilee House, the seat of government.

    “… [In fact] I was referring to Asenso when I cautioned elements at the Jubilee House to stop embarrassing the president with their bribery spree…You should be ashamed of yourself to go and vote for a corrupt MP like Asenso again”, he said.

    “I am ready to drop more revelations. If you don’t want me to talk, vote against him”, Agyapong warned as he campaigned for his brother ahead of the party’s internal election.

    The comments by Agyapong highlight the ongoing internal dynamics and debates within the NPP, adding a layer of controversy to the internal elections.

    The primary is slated for 27 January 2024. It is the last internal election as the party gears up for the 2024 general elections.

I was like, anybody who wants to mention her name needs to put a lot of respect because what that girl went through within that short time is a lot.

    I’ve had five caesarean sections: Sudan, Jasmine, Ivy, Abike, and Adam, I know how it feels. I lost count of how many operations Sudan has had. It got to a stage where she had two shunts in her head.If she wants to eat she has this tube in her stomach, that is where I pass her food. What was her offence? I gave birth to her early and she had an infection. That was the only offence Sudan had. If you asked me if would I willingly drop everything I got because of her situation for me to get Sudan back, oh I will. She looked so much like me,” Olaide Oyedeji stated.

    Being a British citizen by birth is my biggest blessing in life- Uriel Oputa

    Uriel Oputa, a former Big Brother Naija star, said that being born a British citizen is the best thing that ever happened to her.

    The 36-year-old YouTuber made this statement in response to skit creator, OGB Recent’s counsel to Nigerians who are not wealthy.

    OGB Recent claimed that individuals who don’t have millions of naira in their bank account shouldn’t be sleeping at the end of the day because it is an indication that they are not ready to be successful in life.

    He wrote ; “You no get 6 figures for account you dey sleep for night, you never ready make am. May God bless all our efforts and crown them with success today.”

    According to Uriel, Nigerians have a natural ability to place pressure on others until their opinions begin to falter.

    The reality personality from Imo noted how common it is for Nigerians to categorize and make generalizations about others.

    She urged individuals to travel more to have more exposure and a wider range of perspectives.

    Reposting OGB Recent’s tweet, she wrote:

    “ My point exactly about Nigeria, if you listen to people like you are messed up. My biggest blessing is being part British. Some Nigerians will squeeze you until no self belief. They thrive in placing individuals into categories and stereotypes.

    “You can’t do this because ..Nigeria is one place where potential Billionaires have been subjected into not following heads but trends. I will always advise one to travel, you are more than you think.”

    Innovative Nigerian woman showcases well-furnished zinc-built home, ignites online debate

    In a surprising revelation, a Nigerian woman, identified as @giftvitaliss, has captivated internet users by sharing images of her residence constructed entirely with zinc.

    The interior of her meticulously furnished apartment, posted on the X platform, has sparked a heated discussion online.

    The shared images feature a neatly arranged single-room flat constructed from zinc, typically used for roofing.



    The entire apartment boasts tiled floors, and the kitchen is thoughtfully organized with essential appliances.

    While some online observers were astonished by the ingenuity of using zinc for construction, others raised concerns about the practicality of such a dwelling, particularly in the current hot weather.



    Critics argue that the zinc structure may result in an uncomfortable living environment due to increased heat and the perceived low durability of zinc.

    Suggestions were made that using wood might have been a more suitable alternative, as zinc tends to generate heat and unpleasant sounds during rainfall.

    This unconventional housing choice has stirred a debate among netizens, with opinions divided on the feasibility and sustainability of a zinc-built home in a tropical climate.


    Below are some reactions from social media users

    @LilJohnson100 This one get lowkey IQ pako (wood) could have been better…zinc wey go soon rust after 2 or 3 downpour of rain… Anyways it’s always good to try something new….sha update us with ur experience

  • Tom Holland addresses breakup rumours with Zendaya; “absolutely not true”

    Tom Holland addresses breakup rumours with Zendaya; “absolutely not true”

    English actor Thomas Stanley Holland has denied rumors of any form of break up with actress Zendaya.

    The rumor mill spin where people believed the two were in trouble after Zendaya unfollowed several people, including Holland, on Instagram a few weeks ago sparked controversy among fans.

    The fact that the two haven’t been seen in public for months further led others to suspect something was wrong.

    In a recent interview granted thirty-mile zone (TMZ), the actor Tom Holland put an end to speculations surrounding his relationship with Zendaya, firmly denying any breakup rumors.

    The clarification comes amidst swirling gossip triggered by Zendaya’s Instagram activity a few weeks ago, where she unfollowed several individuals, including Holland.

    In response, Tom Holland said “”absolutely not” when asked if he and Zendaya had parted ways.

    The rumor mill went into overdrive when fans noticed Zendaya’s social media move and observed the couple’s absence from public appearances for several months.

    However, Holland dispelled the speculation, emphasizing the strength of their relationship.

    The duo, who sparked romance rumours in 2017 after starring together in “Spider-Man: Homecoming” in 2016, officially confirmed their relationship in 2021.

    Despite being private about their personal lives, they’ve gradually opened up in recent years. In a June interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Holland emphasised their desire to keep their relationship sacred and separate from their careers.
    Zendaya echoed this sentiment in an August interview with Elle, acknowledging the inevitability of some aspects of her life being public. She emphasised the importance of choosing what to share while navigating the challenges of fame.

    “It’s about protecting the peace and letting things be your own but also not being afraid to exist,” Zendaya said. “You can’t hide. That’s not fun, either. I am navigating it more than ever now.”

  • Ibrahim Mahama reportedly took Chef Faila out for dinner some years ago

    Ibrahim Mahama reportedly took Chef Faila out for dinner some years ago

    In an unprecedented bid to break the Guinness World Record for the longest individual cooking marathon, Chef Failatu Abdul-Razak, affectionately known as Chef Faila, has not only achieved culinary success but has also become a national icon and role model in Ghana.

    Chef Faila’s story extends beyond the kitchen, as she is a renowned musician in the northern part of Ghana, performing under the stage name Jah Bless Faila. Her musical repertoire includes impactful songs advocating for peace and development in the region.

    The chef’s rise to fame sparked an old interview, now viral, shed light on her humble beginnings and a life-changing encounter with Ibrahim Mahama, the brother of former President John Dramani Mahama and a prominent Ghanaian businessman.

    Recalling the pivotal moment, Chef Faila narrated how renowned Ghanaian businessman and brother of former President John Dramani Mahama; Ibrahim Mahama, changed her life.

    According to her, she “was nothing, had nothing” when a friend encouraged her to go and meet Ibrahim Mahama.

    “This is the first time I’m saying this on air and I’m telling you for a fact that the very day I met Ibrahim Mahama… John Mahama’s, Ibrahim Muhammad. Look, I was just an ordinary girl from Tamale, a local girl. I remember that very day, we were fasting. We were actually in the fasting season. I was fasting.

    “I had fasted on that day and we were just about to break our fast when one of my male friends called me and told me that Faila, ‘I heard that Ibrahim Mahama has come and he’s at Garba Lodge. You are doing very well with your music. It’s just that you don’t have support. I want you to try and go to him by yourself. Go and tell that man to support you’,” she narrated in an interview with Prince Hamdan.

    The now-renowned Chef Faila then went on to narrate how she gathered confidence to approach Ibrahim Mahama despite the security around him.

    “I confidently started walking straight towards the man. All of a sudden, the security pounced on me. Why are you going? Come back. Come back. But I kept moving, so they rushed to come and hold me back. Then the man did this (a sign) and said, leave her.

    “When I got closer to the man after the security left me, he was going for dinner and they had called for prayers for us to break our fast. So, he said,’… let’s go and have dinner together’. This is something if somebody told me that my whole life, I could get such an opportunity I wouldn’t believe,” she said.

    Chef Faila revealed that, after discussing her passion and aspirations with Mahama, he generously provided financial support, leaving her in disbelief. “When I saw the money, I nearly fainted. Because my whole life, not even from my family have I ever seen it,” she expressed.

    Beyond her cooking marathon feat, Chef Faila’s journey is now a source of inspiration for many young Ghanaians, showcasing the transformative power of support and opportunities in achieving one’s dreams.

    As the country continues to celebrate her feat, while awaiting the confirmation of the Guinness Book of Records, she is the world record holder for the longest cooking marathon, having cooked for 227 hours, more stories are emanating on the life of Chef Faila.

I just have to sit back, work properly and put more effort into my craft, my creativity and come back again,” Article Wan stated in an interview on ‘On A More Serious Note,’ show on JoyPrime.

  • “You’re 30; If I date you, I become your sugar mummy”- Delay replies Freezy Macbones

    “You’re 30; If I date you, I become your sugar mummy”- Delay replies Freezy Macbones

    Ghanaian boxer Freezy Macbones publicly professed his admiration for media personality Deloris Frimpong Manso, also known as Delay, during an interview on the Delay show.

    Grinning broadly, the Ghanaian boxer disclosed that he had been eagerly awaiting the chance to speak with the prominent Ghanaian personality.

    The UK-based Ghanaian boxer’s appearance on “The Delay Show” took an unexpected twist when the host (Delay) subtly hinted at his age, playfully suggesting that dating him might turn her into his sugar mummy.

    Delay said, “You’re 30. If I date you, I become your sugar mummy, I’m just saying.”

    When asked if losing to opponents younger than him had anything to do with the fact that he was thirty years old at the time, Freezy shot back that it didn’t.

    He said: “In my amateur days, it was simple: knock my opponent out, or I lose. That’s the essence of my unique style. I experienced a tough stretch, losing five consecutive fights out of eighteen. Despite the setbacks, I emerged victorious in fourteen or thirteen of them. If I had given up, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Every loss was accompanied by tears because I knew, back in the gym, I trained harder than anyone else.”

    Seizing the moment to express his admiration once again, Macbones asked Delay if she had any concerns about their age difference. Playfully, Delay responded, “About what?” to which Macbones clarified, “About being older than me,” leading to shared laughter between them.

    Earlier in the interview, Macbones had openly declared his desire to marry Delay, expressing his amazement at being on the show and sharing the conversations he had with others about his intentions. He had stated that meeting Delay was part of God’s plan and that he had consistently informed others, including Sister Denta, that he would marry no one but Delay.

    “I can’t believe I’m seated right in front of you,” exclaimed Macbones before he disclosed the communications he has had with people about marrying her. “You can ask Sister Denta; I’ve always told her that I won’t marry anyone except you. Meeting you is all part of God’s plan.”

    There is more to life than dwelling in the past- Funke Akindele speaks on divorce

    Nigerian director and actress, Funke Akindele, candidly shares her perspective on divorce, emphasizing that setbacks are integral to her journey.

    The Nigerian actress asserted that despite her achievements in the movie industry, she is only human.

    The movie producer discussed her two failed marriage incidents and shares more on her latest new movie “A tribe of Judah.”

    “If you don’t fail, you can’t be successful. You have to keep trying. Like when a child is trying to walk, the child will walk small and just fall off. So it’s normal for you to fall but you just have to pick yourself and rise again.
    For me, I see failure, I see challenges, I see obstacles, as part of life. My mum raised me like that. My mum will say if you do not fail, if you do not fall, you cannot succeed so you have to keep going and note, I do not even see the failures,” Funke Akindele stated in an interview on Wazobia.

    Regarding her marriage, Funke clarified that she values her children, profession, and mental well-being more than any relationship she may have with a man.

    She said that she will not dwell on her past mismatched marriages because her intention is to uplift and motivate a large number of individuals.

    “If you ask me now can you tell me one failure, I don’t see it as a failure. My personal life – marriage, I just take it as it comes. My mental health is very important. My career is very important, darling. I have to make an impact. I have to empower a lot of people. I have to inspire young people out there. I have to stay strong for my children and my siblings. Why am I living? I have a purpose, so my head is up. Yes I cry, yes I break down, but after I cry, I just look in the mirror and say “Keep moving,” Funke stressed.

    I don’t want to be known only as a rapper but also a singer- Lyrical Joe reveals

    Joseph Gamor popularly known by his stage name Lyrical Joe or LJ,a Ghanaian rapper has expressed his intent to make a switch from rapping to more of singing.

    The Ghanaian rapper has said it’s time Ghanaians get to know more of his talent.

    In an interview with DJ Slim on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM, the 2022 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards Best Rap Performance winner said even though he is widely known as a good rapper, he can also sing and intends to make that aspect of him more prominent.

    “I consider doing that [singing], I do that more times just that I need to put it in people’s faces more. Yea, so definitely, I will. You know, [in] my song ‘Tina’ with Tinny, I didn’t even rap. I was just singing. I’ve had songs like I’m basically laid back singing,” Lyrical Joe stated.

    He, however, noted that his rap fans usually get engrossed in the rap in a manner that has the tendency to take his mind off tapping into other areas.

    Lyrical Joe wouldn’t be the first Ghanaian rapper to venture into singing.

    Prince Bright of Buk Bak, Obrafuor, Obour, and others showed their versatility in both fields.

    Lately, rappers like King Paluta and Amerado have also been proving their mettle in singing as well.

    Lyrical Joe is currently out with ‘Enter,’ a blend of Amapiano and highlife featuring Kuami Eugene.

    The song, a departure for his typical hardcore rap songs, is composed of a catchy chorus and hooks by highlife musician, Kuami Eugene who also did the production.
