As a former Prophet, I know doom prophecies can be kept ‘secret’ – Maurice Ampaw

Controversial Private Legal Practitioner Maurice Ampaw says he was once a prophet but the grace left him because he has failed to harness the gift God gave to him. According to him, at the age of 14, God called him for his work and he did marvellously with the work of God. He said for ten years, he was the youth president for his church adding that he occupied several spiritual positions in school and especially at Commonwealth Hall. The Lawyer made this revelation about his life to buttress the point that Prophets can control themselves and not always make public some of the revelations they see in the spiritual realm. “My brother please every prophet has the ability to control himself when they get revelations. I’ve been a prophet before and I know the ability to control yourself is there. Being a prophet is something that grows but if you don’t develop it, it keeps dwindling until it’s out of the way. I’m a former Prophet and everyone who knows me knows this about me. When I w

In Ghana, the tendency for a colleague in the same industry to sabotage you in order for him/her to win has become a very worrying phenomenon. This happens in all industries but the creative arts is one that we often get wind of. But in a tweet talking about the need for collaborations rather than sabotage, one of Ghana’s leading dancehall artistes Stonebwoy said it’s imperative for creatives to collaborate. He believes that music especially cannot be bet on so it is not about competition.

Politicians busy looting and telling youth they lack skills -Mawuse Oliver Barker-Vormawor

Relentless political activist and a leading Convenor of the #FixTheCountry movement Mawuse Oliver Barker-Vormawor has asserted that politicians who are charged with seeking the welfare of the citizenry and anticipating the needs of the country have rather become looters of the country, awarding themselves large amounts for minimum effort and cooking deals to rob the country of its revenue. Speaking on the trending issue of youth unemployment, he contended that the argument that the youth lack employable skills are untenable since the world over people are recruited and taught their roles. “… There is nobody! I mean nobody, who has employable skills. All over the world, all companies train their employees into their jobs and their roles. Everyone learns on the job! Every single person. Graduates go into jobs to learn on the job. In every single sector. From nurses, to doctors, through lawyers, engineers, judges, marketing specialists, HR Persons; data analysts.

Prophet caught bonking church member in a washroom

A Prophet by the name Obediah of the House of Salvation Church located at Boukukruwa has been caught sleeping with one of his congregants. According to reports, the Prophet told a beautiful lady who came to his church for prayers that there is a curse in her family that needs to be broken. He ordered that she brings her siblings to the church so that the curse can be broken from the family. However, the lady could not assemble all her siblings because the others were engaged with their exams but was able to go with just one whose name is given as Vivian. When the Prophet interacted with Vivian, he realized her curses are enormous and will therefore need sperms from a man to break the curses. But the lady made it known that she cannot provide such a requirement but the Prophet accepted the challenge of providing the sperm. He is said to have slept with the lady at the church’s urinal after which he washed the woman’s vagina and used the water to quench a fire he had set. The lad

Violence erupts at University of Ghana over winner of SRC Presidential runoff

The University of Ghana has been a place of violence Friday night after the Electoral Commission of the University’s student body failed to announce the winner of the Student Representative Council (SRC ) Presidential runoff as the students had expected. Hours after voting ended, the Electoral Commission (EC) was still yet to compile votes and declare the winner even as some students protested. The protests soon degenerated into violence between supporters of Samuel Amos Ofosu and Prince Asumadu. Supporters pelted stones and sticks at one another while exchanging insults. They accused the EC of trying to manipulate the result in favour of their opponents. Eyewitnesses say the unexplained delay is the cause of the disturbances on campus. The election of the President of the SRC was forced into a runoff after none of the candidates obtained the requisite percentage to be declared winner of the contest. SRC Elections are usually tense and often result in some violence in the Univers

Northern students fail WASSCE because they are not allowed to copy – Bawku SHS Board member

Alhaji Abdallah Otiti Achuliwor Vice President for the Bawku Senior High School Old Students Association has blamed the poor performance of Senior High Schools in the Northern part of the country over the failure of teachers to allow students copy due to honesty. To him, the five regions of the Northern would have performed marvellously if teachers in that part of the country created an environment that allows students the opportunity to copy during final exams. He believes that the Northerner’s prim and properness is one of the reasons for his failure and it’s high time room is made for copying. “It is just that they have made the environment such that they are not allowed to copy the examinations, they are not able to cheat in the examinations that will enable them to make the grades. So, at the end of the day, you see the northern schools at the bottom of the league table because we want to still remain ‘pepepe’, which means the person still wants to do everything exactly. So, o

Mrs. Afful bemoaned the fact some breast cancer patients move from one church to another to seek treatment from pastors instead of them going to the hospital.
