I am quite surprised by this amidst all the legal gymnastics, but it seems our coffers are set to receive a significant boost latest by end of this year.

This is according to a report on Graphic’s website, which states that Woyome’s lawyer has given this assurance to the state’s lawyers.

First the Supreme Court ordered Woyome to pay the money back to the state, and then a High Court acquitted and discharged the businessman of the criminal charges the state brought against him.

The AG has made her intention to pursue and appeal clear, whilst in the interim the Supreme Court has given the all clear for repayment to begin. It was at such a scheduled meeting today that this news was announced.

Another One? Atheist Blogger Hacked To Death In Bangladesh | This Is The Second Incident In One Month

WTF
WTF

When religious extremism gets the best of people, and other people have to die just because of the opinions they profess.

One thing I don’t get is that these religions are supposed to get the best out of man. It’s supposed to curb our excesses, keep us honest; yet all we get is the worst of people. Committing atrocities in the name of their religions and not realising the irony of actions that do not represent what their religion is supposed to stand for.

Maybe it’s because the major religions all contain stories of excessive wickedness on the part of God, and thus people do not really see the problem with following suit, especially if they feel they are defending their faith.

Whatever the reason, this bigotry and hate religion fuels that can lead to such actions is so unfortunate; and has no place in this modern world.

Over 20 London Policemen Came to See Shatta Wale At His London Hotel As Fans-Says Manager BullDog

BullDog and Shatta Wale
BullDog and Shatta Wale

Since we never cut through the crap in Ghana and you have millions of gullible people who would believe things like this, we will continue to hear such things thrown at us for consumption.

There were social media speculations last week that Shatta Wale was visited at his hotel in London by uniform Metropolitan Policemen just to catch sight of Ghana’s dancehall King—because they have heard a lot about him.

First of all, I am not going to trash this because when you read BullDog who is the manager of Shatta Wale’s account of what happened below—you would be able to spot the garbage being peddled here yourself.

Of course, London policemen have nothing to do with their time like Ghana Police so 20 of them will leave whatever they are doing or vacate their post to go and see Shatta Wale in his hotel.

Jay-Z, Rihanna, Beyonce and every body ever famous come to London on a regular basis and yet they do not get 20 London policemen to come and visit them as fans—but Shatta Wale came all the way from Africa, a small country called Ghana  and 20 policemen rushed to go and see him, perhaps for autograph as well.

In this day and age, why can’t we see photos of these 20 policemen who came to visit Shatta?

Anyway, read what BullDog had to say below…

From Radio to Politics: Former JOY FM’s Kojo Oppong Nkrumah to Contest for Parlimanetary Seat on the Ticket on NPP

Kojo Oppong Nkrumah
Kojo Oppong Nkrumah

Somewhere in May 2010, the Informer newspaper accused the then JOY FM morning show host- Kojo Oppong Nkrumah as being NPP’s propaganda machine when he ought to remain neutral.

The newspaper wrote at the time that “Ever since the administration of President John Evans Atta Mills took over the mantle of leadership on 7th January 2009, Mr. Kojo Oppong Nkrumah has taken advantage of the relative credibility of his medium, Joy FM to engage in subtle but sustained negative propaganda against President Mills and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government.”

It surely seems Kojo Oppong Nkrumah had a soft spot for the NPP since social media speculations have that the former radio host is venturing in politics—straight into the house of NPP.
