Ghanaian sprinter Benjamin Azamati has missed out on the 100m semifinals at the ongoing 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The 23-year-old finished 4th in heat 7 Saturday morning clocking 10.13s behind Australia’s Rohan Browning who finished first in 10.01s, Yohan Blake of Jamaica (10.06s) and Chijindu Ujah (Great Britain 10.08s).  His time of 10.13s would have qualified him to the semis if he was in 3 of the other 6 heats.  Azamati also couldn’t qualify as one of the 2 best losers in the heats.  Earlier in the day, Ghana’s Sulemanu Tetteh has crashed out of the ongoing Tokyo Olympic Games at the round 16 stage. It follows a unanimous decision loss to Cuba’s Veitia Yosbany in the Flyweight division Saturday morning. The 28-year-old two-time Olympian went to the floor twice and did not show promising signs right from the start of the bout. He lost in all three rounds to Veitia Yosbany whose pace was swift that Tetteh couldn’t cope and received blows in the face a couple of times...

Renowned Ghanaian Satirist Kweku Sintim-Misa (KSM) has asked the government of Ghana to direct monies been solicited towards the building of the Infamous National Cathedral to invest in the Health Sector. He argues that God does not need a house so the government’s insistence on building a Cathedral is not only worrying but a misplaced priority. Making this known in a tweet, KSM as he is popularly called said “Jesus said; “In my father’s house, there are many MANSIONS”. God is not HOMELESS. Invest in improving the Health sector, not CATHEDRALS”.

Artiste Manager and entertainment critic Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson known in the showbiz circles as Bulldog says curses IWAN rained on him seem to be working against himself (IWAN). IWAN has on several occasions blamed Bulldog for his sordid career in the music industry and has on several occasions rained insults and curses on the artiste manager. But speaking to Delay on the Delay Show, Bulldog admitted to having contributed to the career dip of IWAN indicating that he didn’t stop Djs from playing his songs but rather prevented him from performing on a platform that could have given him the biggest breakthrough in life. Questioned whether the curses IWAN rained on him are working in his life, Bulldog indicated that curses do not work on him. He called for a comparative study between him and IWAN and that will reveal who the curses are working on. “It doesn’t affect me, If you compare me to him, you will know the one who has been affected by the curses.

Ghana’s Hasaacas Ladies FC have beaten Niger’s AS Police 3-0 at the Stade Champroux, Ivory Coast on Friday night in the Wafu Zone B qualifiers for the maiden Caf Women’s Champions League.  A Doris Boaduwaa goal and Milot Abena Pokuaa’s double sealed the victory for the Ghana champions.  The result means Hasaacas Ladies join Nigeria’s Rivers Angels to qualify from Group B to the semifinals. Hasmal will face Burkina Faso’s Union Sportive des Forces Armées.  The 4-time Ghanaian champions lost 2-0 to the Nigerian side in their opening group game, the same as the Nigerien club who suffered a 5-0 loss in their opener and now out of the competition.

Actress Efia Odo has noted that she has a very different mentality from the people she has to deal with in Ghana. The actress has been on a social media hiatus for some time now after swallowing several attacks on her person. This was after she decided to play a leading role in the calls on government to get the country fixed to ensure accountability, transparency and a good system that favours all. However, the actress has been berated on several occasions and has since noted that seems to think differently from the people she has been dealing with and therefore needs to be aware of that fact.

Ghana’s Gospel Musicians have been cautioned to be careful about the platforms they mount to perform between September and December 2021. This word of caution was issued by Captain Godsbrain Blessed Smart who says he has information that some Pastors have gone for Juju to take the “shine’ off some musicians in the country. He indicated that these Pastors have buried dogs, cows, cats and other animals under their platforms and therefore spells doom for these gospel artistes a higher percentage who he believes are not spiritual. “Some nine Pastors have gone for juju and will be using it. In the month of September, October, November all gospel artistes should be careful, where they perform. The one in Madina has buried a cat, some have buried dogs, cows. Gospel Musicians in Ghana do not have any power.” Using Erico of Mentor fame as an example of the power of these Pastors, he indicated that the young man’s shine was taken from him by a Pastor who had targetted him for death.

Radio and Television personality Captain Godsbrain Blessed Smart has observed that Ghana’s National Security is one of the useless government security agencies in the country. According to him, the National Security apparatus in the country is not sharp and lacks the will to perform to ensure that Ghana’s good image is protected. He made this known on Accra-based Onua TV monitored by MyNewsGh.com . Captain Smart reached this conclusion over the failure of the National Security personnel to bring persons creating memes with “sleeping Akufo-Addo” to book. To him, it’s insulting that people will insult the President with such memes and therefore if Ghana’s National Security was apt, it could have worked at ensuring that such memes find their way out of the internet. “Ghana’s National Security only likes to eat fufu. They use GOTA Phones to eat fufu and grasscutter meat whiles the country’s security suffers. It’s worrying that people create all sorts of memes of the President to insu...

Ghanaian triple jumper Nadia Eke has exited the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games after three unsuccessful jumps in Friday’s preliminary round event. The 28-year-old Columbia University graduate was making her Olympics debut but it did not go as planned. Her feet had crossed the stepping board before making the jumps.

Eke has hinted she wants to quit the sport after the Olympics after winning gold at the 2016 Durban African Championships and silver in 2014 at the same competition in Marrakech. This is too bad. She has said she’s leaving the sport after the Tokyo Games but I imagine this is not how she would have wanted to leave. But she should still be proud she got to go to the Olympics, a lifetime dream.
