The e-warranty platform also offers customers of all Samsung phones the unique opportunity of checking whether their phones are original. ‘We at Samsung always seek to provide our customers with real value for their money.

How Come There Are More Churches Than Schools & Hospitals In My Little Town In Ghana?

I am not sure about the last time you visited where you originally come from in Ghana—be it a small town or a village. But an overdue trip I took to my town in the Brong Ahafo Region after having been absent for nearly a decade got me thinking…

It is a common global tenet that education is the key to living a meaningful, successful and non-oppressed life. Coupled with good health facilities, mankind will be able to pursuit happiness and engage in national development.

The importance of education cannot be highlighted enough in this piece—without education, we open ourselves to all sort of societal backlash and economic disasters.

I was pretty excited when I approached my town which was under heavy developmental attack—I saw a neatly built hotel, a gas station and several gigantic billboards on entering the town.

As I got closer, I realized all the gigantic billboards were for churches. At that point, it did not strike me to think beyond that. I was hoping to see similar billboards for other important amenities such as hospitals, schools and even youth or adult clubs.

Since nothing of such nature caught my attention, I descended into a false assumption that signs to these things may be at the other side of the town. Concluding that, indeed things have changed out here for the better…

If Kumawood Was That BAD, How Come The Top English Movie Stars Are Rushing In There? Watch A Clip of Majid Michel and Lil Win In The Movie-Could This be Love?

There has always been a huge divide between the Ghanaian local language and English Movie industry although the local side also produces and revere their stars just as much.

More recently, people like David Dontoh and Ekow Smith have come out to condemn various aspect of the Twi movie industry and even attributed some of the failures of the Ghanaian industry to the unprofessionalism of the Twi sector.

In a rebuttal, Cross-over queen of Twi movies Nana Ama McBrown lashed out at all the negative comments along with other Twi stars.

Amidst the Brouhaha of all this, others have been hard at work bridging the gap and taking advantage of both worlds. LoL! These are the business ones.

Last year Van Vicker made a solid movie move with Agya Koo in ‘Johnie Waka’. A Twi and English comedy which earned him best actor at the movie awards.

Screen champion and AMAA best African actor 2012 Majid Michel has followed suit with the Twi movie star of the moment, Lil Win.

The movie is titled ‘Could this be Love’ and is scheduled to hit the screens in a few months.

What do we expect with a terrific combination of both worlds? Satisfaction of fans of sides, a hit and good returns to both.

MUST READ: Tithing is for ‘Gullible’ Christians

by GC Contributor | Ellen Sackey-Addo Ellen

Before I came across this article, I’ve always held the belief that tithing is a scheme the early smart religious leaders used to STEAL money from their poor followers…

What is the point in giving your little money to a pastor who will very much used it to buy a private jet, a BMW or send his children to the best schools while you continue to linger in poverty?

And it is even compulsory; a certain percentage (10%) of whatever you earn including the bonus or gifts must be taken to the house of God—pretty cunning if you ask me.

I will rather put that 10% in a bank and give it to my children when they grow up. And if you think I am the only person who sees the deep fraud embedded in the concept of paying tithes to enrich some few, read the below article…

***Note: Do not miss the sarcasm in the article…

….Not Christian Economists

At a point, one of my best friends was a Buddhist. He had been an atheist for a long time until he resolved it was time to believe in something. He decided the Abrahamic religions were too arrogant and didn’t quite give room for dissent. He found that those who subscribed to their teachings were usually very gullible and vulnerable. They were those who found it sacrilegious to pry into the wherefores of the very things that underpin their beliefs. He satisfied himself that Buddhism allowed him to think outside the defined confines of the art of living. He passed away three years ago. His name was Jason Roberts, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom. May Buddha keep his soul.

Jason was right about the gullible part, and maybe the vulnerable bit, too. If today a trusted archaeologist discovers the bones of Jesus in a certain tomb, Christianity will be the biggest fraud ever cooked. It requires some amount of gullibility and indeed some vulnerability, to believe that a certain gentleman died some 2,000 years ago and rose again, so all mankind is saved if they believe. Prof Richard Dawkins will not buy that and I don’t blame him. He is too intelligent to settle for a story. Jason didn’t buy it, too.

DO YOU KNOW THAT: Drinking Three Cups Of Coffee A Day Could Halve The Risk Of Liver Cancer?

by Edith Osei Bonsu

The number of people being killed by cancer is on a rise….And yet it seems we could reduce the risk of liver cancer at home by just having three cups of coffee a day….

A new study in Italy has found that drinking 3 cups of coffee a day reduces the risk of the most common type of liver cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), by 40 per cent but separate research indicated that risk could be reduced by half.

According to the author of the study-Dr Carlo La Vecchia the research “confirms past claims that coffee is good for your health, and particularly the liver.”

He added “the favourable effect of coffee on liver cancer might be mediated by coffee’s proven prevention of diabetes, a known risk factor for the disease, or for its beneficial effects on cirrhosis and liver enzymes”.

The researchers conducted a meta-analysis of articles published between 1996 and September 2012, involving 16 high-quality studies and a total of 3,153 cases.

As much as some of you wish this whole Emelia Brobbey thievery scandal be pushed behind us—since we know now that she did actually STEAL. Kumawood, an industry which has more than given her a helping hand (actually celebrated her for what she did) is about to release unto the market something like an … Read more
