The popular Ghanaian musician-Guru
who brought us Lapaz Toyota, Alkayida and other hit songs have mentioned
on a serious note that, he may soon become a prophet by honoring God’s
call.
Making a donation in Kumasi at Baba Yara Sports Stadium over the weekend, Guru is reported by The Popular Newspaper as saying;
“I
see and hear so many calls from a strange voice speaking to me a number
of times entreating me to come out but I have not paid ears to it. Most
at times I feel scared to come out to tell the world what the voice
instructs me to say. It is time I blow everything the voice echoes
through me because whatever I am told by the voice always comes to
pass”.
If Guru proceeds to become a man of God has mentioned, he
will not the first Ghanaian musician to have turned to such a ministry
as we already have Evangelist Lord Kenya and Pastor Ofori Amponsah
championing the God cause.
Nollywood actor, Charles Awurum must
have a strong fan base with the ladies more than the males. In a recent
interview when he was asked the craziest thing a fan has done to him, he
said ladies grab him when they see him in public.
"I am used to
their reactions. Sometimes they see me and shout Jesus! Some ladies will
abandon their boyfriends to hold me. Even married women are not
exempted; they often grab me in public, it happens most of the time so
it can't be tagged at the craziest" he said
The actor who was
actually a painter before he went into acting added that desperate
actresses pay to get roles in a movie, whether they know how to act or
not, some pay over 300,000 to feature in a movie.
Nollywood actor, Chinedu Ikedieze,
has taken his time out to advice fans on how to tolerate one another no
matter the situation surrounding them.
The actor explained that
some people are just out there to bring others down but if one makes the
mistake of hurting them in return, it makes no meaning.
Chinedu
better known as Aki, urged fans to neglect pride and try to apologise at
every given situation which serves as a sign of maturity and not giving
up.
“Actions speak louder than words. We can apologize over and
over, but if our actions don't change, the words become meaningless.”
“The
true mark of maturity is when somebody hurts you and you try to
understand their situation instead of trying to hurt them back.”
“Sometimes
you have to shut up, swallow your pride, & accept that you're
wrong, it's not giving up, it's called growing up,” he posted.
The multi-talented and light-skinned
actress, Matilda Asare has rebuffed rumours circulating in the country
that she is dating Osita Iheme, a Nollywood ace actor popularly known in
showbiz as Pawpaw. In an interview with The Popular, said she went on a
trip to America but rather returned to hear strange rumour.
According to Matilda, she recently went to Nigeria on personal
businesses but not to visit her" supposed boyfriend” as she is being
tagged with. To her, Pawpaw and herself are professionals and understand
their career, adding she has been on set with the actor several times.
She explained she met the petit actor twice in Ghana for the shooting of
Kumawood movies Boys Abr3 and For Girls respectively.
However
she conceded the fact that she likes Pawpaw as a friend and a colleague
and nothing more. She told The Popular that as to where those funny
rumours got to the media is still a puzzle she is yet to find an answer
to. "This is not the first time I'm facing such issues, it is part of my
occupational hazards “so I'm cool with it” .She is therefore asking the
media to ignore such stories about the story because they are all
orchestrated lies and there is no truth in them.
Ghanaian
actresses falling for the Nollywood actors have been on the ascendency
in recent times. Within a spate of about three years, the industry has
witnessed a failed relationship between Yvonne Nelson and Iyanya, and an
on and off episode from Nadia Buari and Jim Ike.
Osita Iheme
known in showbiz as Pawpaw is yet to marry after years of his colleague
actor brother Aki tied the knot some years ago.

Movie producer and actress, Kafui
Danku, on Friday lambasted people she said are publishing fake movie
arts of a work she apparently produced.
The actress said an
artwork of a movie was sent to her and “has been photo-shopped” in a way
that does not flatter her image and reputation.”
Taking to her facebook page to address the matter, she said it was the handiwork of people who are after her.
“It’s
really sad how people want you down so badly that they spend all their
time devising means of ruining your reputation,” she wrote.
According
to her, the poster which is meant to advertise a movie titled
‘Destined’ came across to her as a joke when she first saw it.
“Initially,
I laughed about it and thought it was all one big joke and then I woke
up this morning with all kinds of messages on my phone…Well, I just want
to let my fans who don’t know me personally that, I’ve never shot any
movie called ‘Destined’.”
“I’ve also not worked with those other
artists on the poster. I’m sure someone is just trying to distract me,
knowing that we’re seriously working hard at producing another fantastic
movie.”
Kafui Danku is currently on set producing a new movie
titled “Happy Deathday”, and says all her movies are of high quality and
the said movie, ‘Destined’, can never be compared with any of her
works.
“…our genuine fans, I want to let u know that I’m not
distracted at all. We’re still shooting HAPPY DEATHDAY and this won’t
stop us. If you follow the movies I feature in, you can tell that the
poster of ‘Destined’ is fake and definitely not my kind of movie.”
Happy Deathday features Nana Ama Mcbrown, Alexe Kubo, James Gardner Elikem Kumordzie the tailor and Kafui Danku herself.
Two football fans were arrested at
the Kumasi Sports Stadium on Wednesday morning when they taunted Ghana
captain Asamoah Gyan over musician Castro’s disappearance at the Black
Stars training session.
The police swooped to arrest the two fans
to prevent them from being beaten up by some supporters who were angry
over the comments over the loud comments directed at the Black Stars
captain.
The two 20-year-olds students of the Koforidua
Polytechnic started shouting ‘Asamoah Gyan – where is Castro’ directing
that at the UAE-based attacker as the Black Stars arrived for training
on Wednesday morning.
Angry at what many of the fans thought were
insensitive comments from Isaac Owusu and Bright Nistowel, the
supporters turned on the duo threatening to beat them up.
The
police at the stadium quickly swooped to arrest the duo to prevent them
from being beaten up by the angry crowd who were gathering around them.
Some fans hooted at the two students as they were marched by the police for detention and further investigations.
While
the police were marching them away the two lads were seen trading
accusations over who mouthed the provocative words towards Asamoah Gyan
in the stands.
Castro, a famous music icon in Ghana, disappeared
and feared dead in July while on holidays at the Ada resort with his
close friend Gyan.
It is feared he drowned while boating riding on the river in the holiday resort and his body has since not be found.
The
Black Stars have been camping in Kumasi ahead of Saturday’s match
against Uganda in Kumasi in the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
