Confidence Haugen, the only female flying the flag of Ghana at the ongoing Big Brother Africa Amplified contest in South Africa, has once again been nominated for eviction this week and she desperately needs the votes of her country to continue to be in the competition. Confidence, CEO of the Aphrodisiac Night in Ghana, is in South Africa to compete with some 14 other nationals for a cash amount of $200 000. This show is basically a reality contest... 

It was when they pulled out the machetes that I started to worry. I’d seen men with machetes in Africa before, but they were rusty, practical tools used for clearing away brush by the side of the highway. These were long, shiny and housed in decorative sheaths, pulled out ostensibly so the men could sit down more comfortably, but done with a clear, understated flair. They were more like sultan swords than jungle tools. The kicking in my six-month... 

most celebrities in Ghana do not love to be seen or talked about in either newspapers, on Tv’s or even on the radio. The issues as to whether they are camera shy or not will be left for them to answer.

Twelve pupils- six males, six females said to be from schools in the Kumasi Metropolis have been captured on video in a free-for-all sexual... 

In today’s Ghana, every Tom, Dick and Harry knows what has happened, is happening and about to happen in our political circles due to the easier inflow of information in the system. It’s no news seeing a layman talking politics like a parrot. Even the old shoeshine man (no disrespect intended) that has a permanent corner in my area can always be seen with his illiterate buddies every morning listening and debating politics on his portable radio. Thanks...

They have been accused and allegations made against them about all sorts of things, yet I am marveled by the fact that, they have refused to come out with rejoinder’s to defend themselves through the media house that made those allegations against them.
