The Ultimate Prize is $5000, and on the 1st of September, a dance competition will be held at the Oxford Street to produce the winner.

The fun, however, goes beyond the first day. At least 16 more events and dance activities will be held throughout September under the following broad dance categories: Traditional Dance, Afro-Latin Dance, Street Dance, Praise Dance, DanceSport, Kids Dance and Dance Awards. The dates and location for the various events will be published at the ceremony, and weekly on the Ghana Dance Festival social media sites (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) and allied media platforms including DanceteraTV.

According to organisers, this year’s event will be used as a tool to help curb the issue of drug abuse, which has recently been more visible in the area of Tramadol Abuse.

President of the Ghana Dance Festival, Robert Klah said, “our large youth base at various touch points gives us direct access to the youth.

We would, therefore, like to use these platforms to create the right sensitization needed to save our youth from this social ill, and we are willing to work any organisation that shares in this goal.”

He also added, “what was launched in 2015 by the Dep. Min. of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, Hon. Dzifa Gomashie, has grown from 9 sub-events and activities to over 22 with participation from over 10 countries, and working with over 1500 dancers. We are grateful this year, we the support of Joy FM, MTN Pulse, The Black Ride App, Malta Guinness, Max TV and TV7.”

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to.
