Sarkodie  has tweeted a 3-generational photo of his father, himself, and his new son. In a Father's Day post, the Tema-born rapper finally confirmed he has a new baby boy. Earlier this year, the rapper denied rumours of his wife giving birth to a baby boy in the United States. This was after fans flooded his timeline with congratulatory messages having sighted publications in that regard. "Not true...," he responded. Joining her husband to debunk the false publication, Tracy Sarkcess added, “SMH… a slow news day I guess." However, a few days ago, the Ghanaian rapper arrived in the country with his daughter and wife who was carrying another baby. This generated some level of interest in fans who were eager to know who the other child was. But  Sarkodie  continued to remain silent and adamant about the speculations until his Father’s Day tweet today to officially introduce his new son, Michael Nana Yaw Owusu Addo Jr aka “MJ”.

The Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) has given the Chief Executive Officer of Produce Buying Company (PBC), Mr Kofi Owusu Boateng ten days within which to respond to a complaint of misappropriation lodged against him by Kumasi-based journalist Nana Kwadwo Jantuah. “You are required to submit your written response within 10 working days upon receipt of this complaint,” CHRAJ stated in its letter to the CEO. The journalist, represented by his lawyer, Mr Sarfo Gyamfi, believes the company, which was recently delisted by the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) over its failure to publish its financial results, should be investigated for possible corruption and mismanagement, hence his petition to CHRAJ. In his petition, Mr Jantuah cited suspicious activities by the directors of the firm to back his claim and noted that he has documents which indicated the withdrawal of some GHS 1.5 million from PBC’s account in 2018, ostensibly for the purchase of nuts, which have not...

Government in a letter dated October 18, 2019 to the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) announced the termination of the agreement which came into effect on March 1, 2019, and saw PDS take over Ghana’s major power distribution company, ECG. The decision, government explained, was prompted by some breaches of the agreement by PDS. According to the Ghana government, PDS failed to fulfil the necessary “condition precedent” in the agreement, which borders on demand guarantee. But Ghana’s decision appears not to be sitting well with the US government which has given the Ghana government October 30 to reverse the decision or face the consequences of the decision, which will be to lose 190 million dollars under the MCC Compact II. US government demands In a letter addressed to Ghana’s Financ...

The body of Zimbabwe's ex-president Robert Mugabe was flown out of Singapore Wednesday following his death last week, his nephew said, heading home for burial in a country bitterly divided by the hero-turned-despot's legacy.  Mugabe, a guerrilla leader who swept to power after Zimbabwe's independence from Britain and went on to rule for 37 years until he was ousted in 2017, died on Friday, aged 95.  His health deteriorated after he was toppled by the military and former loyalists in November 2017, ending an increasingly iron-fisted rule that sent the economy into ruin.  He died after receiving treatment at a Singapore hospital for several months, and a delegation including Vice President Kembo Mohadi travelled to the affluent city-state on a chartered flight to bring him home.  Early Wednesday a hearse transporting Mugabe's body left a Singapore funeral parlour bound for an airport and accompanied by a police escort, driving past a group of waiting journalists. ...
