It doesn’t seem like the controversy surrounding the transformation of VIP to VVIP will end anytime soon— despite the fact that legendary Ghanaian musician-Reggie Rockstone who has now joined the long standing Ghanaian musical group has on many occasions detached himself from the reasons why Promzy left the group.

After Promzy who was part of the formation of the group exited, paving way for discussions which obviously led to Reggie Rockstone’s entry, we’ve heard several allegations of foul play—and according to a new report, Reggie Rockstone teamed up with Joseph Nana Ofori (Prodigal) and Abdul Hamid Ibrahim (Lazy now Zeal) to KICK Promzy out so the former could make his grand entry.

The Clock Newspaper wrote that;

“According to Promzy, everything was well with him and his “brothers” until Reggie Rockstone came into the picture, “we were cool and had made plans for a new project we were about to get underway only for me to hear that I had been replaced by Reggie” he noted.

Promzy, who could not hold back his tears during the entire period of the interview challenged his former group members to produce his resignation letter if they claim he resigned or left the group on his own, “where is the resignation letter, ask Reggie to produce the resignation letter that paved way for him to join the group” he said while shedding tears, insisting that the God father of hiplife was the one behind his fallout from the legendary hip hife group, VIP.”

GhanaCelebrities.Com spoke to Zeal (formerly known as Lazy) in relation to the above publication—and he said, ‘there is no truth in it.’

Zeal said; ‘Promzy had on many occasions come to us, wanting to leave the group and embark on a solo career. And we had on many occasional talked him into seeing the positive side in staying together as group. However, before he even came to us this last time, he had already started his own solo career with a recording.’

The Girl With The Cocaine Stash: A Timeline of the Biggest Story in Ghana Right Now And One Long Sorry indictment On Ghana And Our Way Of Doing Things

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past week, you surely must have heard about the case involving ‘The Girl With The Cocaine Stash’. That’s the moniker I’ve given to this whole saga, modelled on the title of the uber successful novel and movie, ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.’

Nayele Ametefeh, aka Ruby Adu Gyamfi, aka Ruby Appiah, aka Angel, was arrested by security operatives at London’s Heathrow Airport carrying twelve kilos of cocaine spread between her luggage and handbag. Initial reports claimed she carried a Ghanaian diplomatic passport, and within hours the government had been sent into crisis mode.

The Minister of Communications, Edward Omane Boahmah, was at the forefront of this exercise. He loudly proclaimed that the lady arrested held no diplomatic passport, and pointed to an error of some online publications using the wrong picture to accompany the story, as well as insinuations that she was close to the first family; to indicate that due diligence was not done. The Bureau of National Investigations then ‘invited’ the CEO of Citi FM and the editor of the Daily Graphic in for questioning.

After several questions were raised over their role in such an event, the Narcotics Control Board (NACOB), decided to flex their muscles and show they were on top of issues; they ended up embarrassing themselves more than they ever would have done by just staying silent.

They issued a statement signed by their Deputy Executive Secretary, Richard Nii Lante Blankson. Once again it was categorically denied that Ruby held a diplomatic passport, that she just held an Austrian passport and an ordinary Ghanaian passport. The clincher from NACOB, that she was arrested at Heathrow through a collaborative effort between NACOB and its British partners.

Shocking Video Showing Nanny Beating Small Girl Mercilessly Goes Viral | What is Your Take?

Maid Abuses Child
Maid Abuses Child

Chris-Vincent’s Comments on the issue

There is a video going around of a housemaid grossly abusing a child—in fact that is atrocious (if you have not seen it yet, check it below).

I am not in anyway in support of the treatment the housemaid gave to the child but two things come to mind after watching the video!

In Africa, we treat housemaids with similar or the same gross contempt and do really we expect them to take genuine and proper care of our children?

Some treat their housemaids less as they will treat their own children. So what do such people expect when they leave these same abused maids alone with their precious children?

Also, have you considered why the housemaid was eating the child’s food? It wouldn’t be far-fetched to assume that she does not have any food of her own—else she would have gone and taken her own portion.

Most of these housemaids are given no or little food or even if given, what they eat is what the dogs are worth.

CCTVs are not the answer to the conundrum; the answer lies in Confucius’ golden rule “Do unto others as you would want them do unto you”, found in the Analects (500 BCE). Of course, well plagiarised and stolen by religion (specifically Jesus Christ and the Bible- Matthew 7:12, the Hindu sacred literature- Mahabharata, bk. 5, ch. 49, v. 57, and the Buddhist sacred literature- Udanavargu, 5:18).

If we begin to treat our housemaids with love; they will treat our children with equal love…

This shocking video is enough to leave any person livid with rage at how anyone can be so heartless, particularly towards a child.

The woman in the video is the nanny who takes care of the kids of a Ugandan couple. The footage was taking with a secret cam in the living room, which the parents activated after finding bruises on their kids which the nanny could not satisfactorily explain.

The nanny was reported to the Police and is currently in custody. The girl is still alive despite several stories floating on social media that she had died.

A really sad situation and justice must be meted out to this heartless lady.

Watch the video below (Viewers Discretion)…
