Ghanaian songstress-Efya turns 28 today—and we have a fab photo of her above for you. Though talented, Efya remains a local champion, with lesbian and smoking controversies hovering over her head. As we published earlier on, the singer has even been accused of doing hard core drugs and constantly smoking weed—she has denied all these but says, she still smokes cigarettes.

Interestingly, her mother has come out to say, she is not aware of her daughter smoking anything—not even the cigarette she has admitted smoking. According to her mother, it’s just some people peddling lies about Efya.

Real name-Jane Fara Fauzzier Afia Boafowaa Yahaya Awindor, the musician describes herself as “a Ghanaian neo soul vocalist, songwriter, performer and actress from Kumasi.”

She is the daughter of Nana Adwoa Awindor, a filmmaker and celebrity host of the late television show Greetings From Abroad. Efya got her first exposure to fame when she participated in the maiden edition of the Stars of the Future talent show.

Apart the above photo of Efya, we also have some photos of Joselyn Dumas, Itz Tiffany, Kafui Danku, Mzbel, Jackie Appiah and others below…

The Black Stars have dropped from 24th to 26th in the latest FIFA rankings released by FIFA.

The Stars narrowly missed out on winning the top prize at AFCON 2015, and since then they’ve only engaged in two games; last month’s friendly games against Mali and Senegal.

Those games ended in a 1-1 draw and a 2-1 loss respectively, and consequently Ghana drops to 26th in the world, down two places from 24th in last month’s rankings.

Ghana is still the third top ranked side in Africa though, behind Algeria and Cote d’Ivoire.

On the world stage, world champions Germany are still top, ahead of world cup finalists Argentina. Belgium surges into the top five, seating third.

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.

DID YOU KNOW THAT: A Power Nap Of Just 45 Minutes Can Boost The Memory Five-Fold?

Power Nap
Power Nap

According to researchers, a power nap of just 45 minutes can boost memory by five times. This has immense benefit particularly for students as a short doze helps to retain information you have learned and ‘significantly’ improves recall.

Of course it’s difficult to wake up after such a short nap when you are really tired—and that is why most people avoid it but considering the benefits, its worth the struggle.

Scientists from Saarland University in Germany who conducted the research say; during sleep, bursts of brain activity known as sleep spindles play an important role in consolidating newly learned information.

Professor Axel Mecklinger said a nap of just 45 minutes to an hour ‘produces a five-fold improvement in information retrieval from memory’

‘The memory performance of the participants who had a power nap was just as good as it was before sleeping, that is, immediately after completing the learning phase.
