Achimota Hospital to Be Shut Down Due to Excessive ‘Dumsor’

ECG

Honestly, the current state of the power crisis in Ghana is horrendous. For the past three years, Ghanaians have had to endure the power crisis (popular referred to as dumsor) but residents in Accra have witnessed the worst form of power predicament this year. Many businesses are collapsing and employees are being laid off because the power crunch is affecting productivity of these companies.

The newest entity which will soon join the tall list of businesses that are shutting down is the Achimota Hospital. According to an administrator at the hospital, the excessive power cut is negatively affecting operations at the hospital.

Speaking on Peace FM this evening, he made it known that the hospital has to rely on generator sets for electricity anytime there is power cut. This, according to him, cost the hospital not less than GH₵ 2,000 a day just on fuel.

He continued by saying almost all electrical gadgets owned by the hospital have been damaged due to the incessant power fluctuations the hospital is facing.

Does Age Matter to You in Relationships? | Of Course Not…

Black woman

There is no universal law that suggests specific age gap between partners before they finally join in a blissful relationship. This subject, though often discussed has not yielded any conclusive theory that will tie the loose ends.

Traditionally a man is supposed to be older than a woman. In most cases, both sexes in the relationship have the same age. In rare instances, the woman is slightly older than the man. This phenomenon is wholly agreeable with the conventions of the society. It only becomes weird when one of the partners is far older than the other; say ten or fifteen years.

Age in relationships tend to be a great priority for many who are seeking to spend the rest of their lives with someone they truly love. Frustrations and regret sets in when the age difference is wide. This disparity may conflict with the individual goals and societal view of the relationship.

You do not need to be smart to become a pastor—and even the dumbest can be good at requesting money from people in the name of God. This story teaches on a lot but it also illustrates that, most of these men of God are never what they claim to be—and it’s good the law does not care either you are a pastor or a bishop.

A Ghanaian pastor who walks about with 3 names-Samuel Akoto, David Antwi and David Krumah and used to reside at Jeremy Street, Edmonton in North London was sentenced to 5 years early this month for identity fraud at the Isleworth Crown Court .

Until his conviction, he was the sole pastor of Mount Zion Prayer House Ministries (UK) with registered charity number 1153088. He was known to his congregation as Pastor David Kwaku Antwi and he introduced himself as such on local radio station (Sources radio) where he preaches to the Ghanaian community.

GhanaCelebrities.Com has received several emails in the last 48 hours from readers looking to confirm a story they’ve read online—which stated that, Nadia Buari has confirmed in an interview the father of her twins is the President of Ghana-John Dramani Mahama.

Of course this is a lie and apart from the fact that Nadia Buari has not granted such interview, the hoax was started by one of those ‘non serious’ websites—and some how, it caught fire.

The initial story was to highlight how Ghanaians attribute everything to President Mahama—blaming him even when they fail to win the lottery. But it seems some people genuinely considered the story to be true.

Our Ghanaian Celebrities mostly go for the long weaves/wigs—some even go as far as opting for the floor sweeping ones but we’ve not seen much of these in recent times because the cost of weaves have shot up.

Not everyone has the face for short styled weaves/wigs but we are told the long weaves seem to work for whatever face, which explains why we see more of those and less of the former.

Going through our archives, we’ve managed to pull out some photos of some of your favourite celebrities’ attempt at rocking the short styled weaves/wigs—and though some got it right, others don’t need to try it again; EVER.

This is pretty cheeky and somewhat exploitative—because the profit margin is too large. But if you have a generation of people who care so much about brand names and are ready to throw cash at it, this is what we are left with.

Hip-Hop star-Dr Dre became a billionaire last year when he sold his Beats’ company  to Apple during a record-setting deal that included about $2.6 billion in cash and approximately $400 million in stock.

While Beats is known for its high price tag, Headphone designers estimate ‘the cost of making a fancy headset is as low as $14’, the New York Times reported.  With such a low estimate cost, the least expensive pair of Beats headphones that is listed on the company’s website costs $199.99 and the most expensive pair retails for $699.99.
